Few years have passed by, while the people of the former Theron _ now magical nation; were ignorant or half informed of the battle the Wizarding five fought was against the Dark magicians.
The king and the council of elders perceived of the rumors, the Wizarding five were invited to have an hearing on the matter. They got to know that the magic plaque was a result of the interference from the Dark magicians, the leaders of the said organisation, who were assumed dead.
What shocked the king and the other administrative authorities was the fact that Zenobios, who was in charge of creating Kaijus was also a member of the organisation, but not just any member, a top rank official there.
So, the hunt for Zenobios and any members of the Dark magicians began. Magic Knights, an organization responsible for the security and wellbeing of the nation, began raiding homes of the inhabitants, looking for a particular thing.
During the battle between the Wizarding five and the leaders of the Dark magicians, they found marks of initiation on the bodies of lderberry the dark magician goblin, the Nekomata who was killed by her own magic and the Valkyrie who stabbed herself.
The initiation mark was of a scorpion with enlarged tail. This mark is different from the stigma of the celestial they signed a pact with, as not every member was lucky enough to get it, but all of it members have the initiation mark.
The magic knights were looking for such thing in their raids, even those that don't have that mark but also have an initiation mark, were also taken into custody.
The raid proved to be a very successful tactic, not only was it able to root out numerous members of the dark magicians, other terrorist organizations that were quite unheard of, gang boards and bandits were also fished out.
While the dark magicians have been in existence in the nation for quite some time, their reason for coming up, their ideology was a little bit unknown, the only thing known about them was that they are a group of psychos who takes pleasure in making sacrifices using the inhabitants of Theron.
"What is the philosophy of your organization, what is the reason of your existence". An interrogator who is a Valkyrie asked.
Her question was directed towards a large troll that was shackled in huge chains. His eyes were opened but he was clearly not himself, he looks unconscious with just his eyes opened.
"Everyone in the organization has their own reasons for joining, however, the collective ideology is to create a new nation, devoid of it present state of authority, where the whole world would be one, no more borders, no races, just one worldwide nation with the freedom to communicate with celestials ". The troll said.
"... What a stupid ideology that is, no matter how cooperative things are, there will always be division ". The Valkyrie monologued.
"Where is Zenobios, the last leader of your organization ". She questioned again.
"No one knows at the moment, whenever we are needed, they talk to us using the mark ". The troll answered.
"I see...".
***
Many dark magicians were prosecuted, charged and punished accordingly_ they were executed publicly. The organization which are used to hiding, now had even more reason to hide. Some of the surviving members flee into mountains, others to the forest of the swamp.
Wherever they hid themselves, they got a message to travel to the middle of nowhere in the swamps. They were all directed via the initiation mark that was on them. They were led to the roots of a ginormous tree whose soil has been carved and dug to serve the purpose as an hideout.
In it, numerous members of the organization have gathered, each of them speaking to each other their experiences, the plight they faced during the massive raid of the authorities.
*Cough, cough*.
Someone at the podium made a sound to stop the chattering. Seeing that the rowdiness has come to a hold, he smirked.
"Good day my fellow magicians, I'm glad that we all made it, though, we were prosecuted, and many of us have fallen, due to the selfishness and evilness of this system of government...
They have failed to see the betterment our cause will bring to all the nations of the world, our comrades were beaten, flogged and publicly executed because of their beliefs, however, all in all, we are not going to let their sacrifices be in vain...". Zenobios the man at the podium said.
The members of the organization all chorused together, seeing that one of their leaders is still holding on strong.
"Yeah, master Zenobios!!!".
"The time has come for the sins of the nations to be payed, the dawn of a new beginning has arrived, starting from now, we declare war on every nation of the world, starting with the kingdom of Theron!!!" Zenobios said at the top of his voice.
"Yeah!!! Let the dawn of a new beginning come!!! Let the dawn of a new beginning come!!! Let the dawn of a new beginning come!!!". The crowd chanted loudly.
Zenobios raised his hand up cheering on the agitated crowd, he had a wide smug across his face, his eyes glimmers green.
Standing with him by his right at the podium was zalmore the kobold, his left was a female dwarf and beside the dwarf was Armin the second son of marquess Gizbert, who has a fierce expression on his face.
