<h4>Chapter 1204 - An Assassination! I</h4>
From their current positions, Halcyon could feel the gazes of all those around them as her mind was calm and serene for what was toe.
She had seen much and done even more, her mind being forged over the years as when she understood what she must do, she did it.
The moment that information was passed to their House about the appearance of a Daolord that was wiping out others of simr rank like mere weeds, she appeared in the Cosmic Battlefield.
Before she even saw for herself this being utilize a rough mixture ofws and Daos to produce devastating attacks,? she knew.
She knew that the time she had been waiting for hade.
So she told her own Mother, the woman that presided over the entire House of Havenbreaker as the Family Head- that she would take care of this newly appearing Daolord, and even draw him into their house if need be. Of course, all were words said for her to achieve her own goals.
''Mother...'' The word felt foreign to her, even if the woman gave birth to her millions of years ago. After such a long period of time passed and seeing so many things, it just never remained the same over the years.
The brutality she had seen over the years. The plots and schemes. All of it was just...
''Laughable.''
Yes! Before her eyes and what she had seen, it was trulyughable!
But the man before her eyes...this was not something that she could ignore. It was one of the possible points in time where she could dip in her hands and possibly...just possibly...
"In this game, I will provide to you information. In the next minute or two, this peaceful banquet will be disrupted...and an attack will be made on your life. The weakest of those attacking you will be Daolords as the strongest...are monstrosities that have yet to appear in the Primordial Empire. "
Even as she said the words, she found them ridiculous herself. But she couldn''t deny them as she had seen it.
Now, and in the past, she had seen it...and it came to be true.
This, she knew, and this was what she used to move. She studied the eyes of the man before her curiously to see how he would react, but he remained as closed off as ever, the golden glow of his eyes just bing more condensed as he seemed like he could shoot off golden beams of light at any second.
"Is that so?"
His words were not a mental message, but spoken from his lips as they continued a hint of curiosity.
"Yes." She continued to study his expression as she brought her body closer to his while speaking slowly.

"I may know who is behind it, I think. But for now, I can only tell you about thising attack and have you prepare. That is my game of trust. Afterwards, I hope you and I will be able to talk on equal terms. I hope we can talk on even closer terms as the repercussions of what is toe are dealt with."
Yes. Of what was toe. Such words and thoughts should have been terrifying for anyone to hear, but the man before her seemed unfazed as while holding on to her right hand, he spun her thrice before he brought their bodies close once more.
"Are we not already talking on close terms, Princess Halcyon?"
Princess. There was that word again. She didn''t necessarily hate it, but she didn''t like it nheless as she spoke up about it while unceasing her hand from the man before her and gazing at him with sharp eyes.
"Halcyon. Just call me Halcyon. Are you ready?"
She asked the man who seemed free and unfettered...she asked such a man if he was ready for an assassination on his life.
To her wonder and surprise, he truly nodded with a smile as he cracked his neck side to side, his white and gold suit shimmering brightly as he replied effortlessly!
"I am ready."
With a deep voice filled with power, his reply came. Halcyon nearly felt her heart flutter at such a scene, but this flutter didn''t evene close before sheughed at herself and shut it down.
''No. You cannot get close to him. Never him.''
Her thoughts were her own as her golden eyes glimmered brightly, leaving the awe inspiring figure of Daolord Osmont as she nced at the many women he brought with him that were currently staring daggers at her, only the blue haired woman that seemed like an icy queen staring at her with a calm smile.
Halcyon then gazed at the green colored figures from the House of Springforge and the red colored ones from the House of Stormdust, bringing all of these beings and etching them into her mind as her gaze finally came back to rest on Daolord Osmont.
Below his tight fitting suit, she could already feel his Dao Lines surging as she nodded and took a few steps away from him.
"Then, we will talk again once this ordeal is finished."
Her words only lingered in the ears of the man before her whose smile had turned into a grin, his eyes zing with battle intent as they truly did release beams of golden light at this moment.
Then...their surroundings shattered.
BOOOOOM!
Halcyon''s eyes took everything in slowly, watching as the void around them shattered as from it, multiple figures leaked out powerfully!
It was what she saw millions of years ago. If she saw it, then more than likely it woulde to pass.
Yet she still could not help but be shaken when it truly urred.
From the void, the pulsing hands from three unknown Daolords stretched out towards Daolord Osmont. The hands stemmed from figures that were clothed in ck robes and veils throughout, a unique item that hid one''s identity as even the brightening Dao Lines beneath these garments couldn''t be seen.
Yet on top of these three Daolords, there was also the aura of a being that looked like a zing sun appearing right above Osmont from the void!
This being held a different aura than the others, his outstretched hands already releasing a terrible skill as this aura alone was something that Halcyon recognized.
''A Glimpse of Edicts.''
A being of such a level was leading the assassination of Daolord Osmont as his appearance....was just the tip of the iceberg !
