Just as planned

Somewhere in the mansion of the Kraftfull family,

"So what you are saying is that he accepted the commission and went to the that temple together with the princess?" Adam, with his expression hidden by his pitch black hair while looking down on the floor, was sitting on a chair behind a desk, in a room that didn't have much light and if someone somehow saw it, they would definetly think some shady stuff is happening here.

"Yes master!" A man with a hooded cloak answered kneeling on his left leg and putting his left fist on the ground, while the other arm rested on his right leg and, of course, with his face looking down. If someone looked carefully, one could see his face sweat. Visibly that hooded man was quite a bit afraid of the man in front of him. But that wasn't the case at all, because the hooded man had just ran at crazy speed from the same temple that Kiran was at right now that would take a week to reach. His Stamina wasn't even half down but because he was one of the laziest of the group he had a little trouble moving so much after such a long time.

Adam still faced down, "Explain all that happened after they left the capital"

Without lifting his head, the hooded man started to narrate everything. He has already reported everything Kiran did after he left the mansion, including his every interaction and fight, and how he absorbed the first beast he fought, and now apparently could control the blaze element, that the beast, he absorbed, earlier had.

Adam was naturally surprised just like everyone that have been sent to look after the young master Kiran. Including the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Guardians later on.

The hooded guy also had earlier said how Kiran nearly singlehandedly defeated the Forest Wolf that has mutated for some reason. Which was another shocker to Adam. Even though he could definetly fight someone higher in strength, he definetly didn't expect that Kiran could kill someone that is more than an entire Order higher in strength than him.

'Kiran is an anomaly' that is what the five most trusted men, who were known as «The Secret Order» under direct command of Adam Kraftfull thought. That also included the 3 guardians and Adam himself.

The five men, including the hooded man, that was currently narrating everything to his master, were sent to spy on Kiran.

He also told Adam how they met the Guardians that were apparently sent by the Emperor himself and had a little chat about the situation of both sides, The guardians and The Secret Order.

Both sides knew each other well, because they had to work together many times in the last war that ended in a truce 20 years ago.

The War brought destruction to an empire, that was comparable to the current 3 strongest, and also bringing total annihilation to countless kingdoms.

After exchanging some words with the other party, They all decided to continue with their missions and don't bother each other.

If The Secret Order ever had to fight against the 3 Guardians they would definetly hold their stand and not be easily defeated. Although individually they couldn't come into the ranks of Icosagon, they definetly were a frightening existences, when fighting together as a group and could fight against some members of the Icosagon on equal ground.

Of course excluding the top 5, Kirans Mother - Mona Kraftfull, that definetly as strong as the top five, but didn't care about rankings, and the «Wind Demon» who possesses one of the most dangerous «Law Domains» in the world that makes even the ones with higher Order of strength than Sonya herself, be super cautious when fighting against her, because one can lose their lives quicker than he can react.

Law Domains are separate areas that have their own laws. One can create such Domains when stepping into the 4th Order with any of your elements. Law Domains are mysterious things, that aren't even known to lower folk that rarely even reach 3rd Order not to mention 4th, Law Domains also aren't something one can comprehend easily. They are something that has Laws set in stone by their creator, the creators are the absolute masters of that Domain, and only a stronger Domain can go against the others Laws.

The Laws in such domains are made from the element that stepped in the 4th Order. A person can, of course, have as much Law Domains as the person has Elements, which is naturally a rarity. When stepping into the fifth Order you can make an even Stronger law Domain with more laws or make an entirely new Domain with his new comprehensions of that element. Stepping into the 6th Order and so on is already self understandable, so we won't dwell into this topic any further.

The hooded man also told Adam about how the princess was stalking him earlier and after she got caught they somehow became very friendly. To which Adam could only smile as if saying 'everything is going just as planned'.

The challenge from Alberto and his harassment on the princess the next day that was stopped by Sonya was also told.

What Adam knew now was that Kiran had some kind of absorption power that could absorb others skills and elements on some kind of conditions. Kirans father decided that until Kiran decided to tell and explain to his father his strange power to absorb, Adam would act as if he never even knew about it. He didn't want Kiran to know that he had sent spies to watch and report back to him, because Adam knew for sure that Kiran would be mad as hell at his father.

"Master, after they left the capital they were attacked by a few minor beasts which allowed Princess Kiara to ascend to higher 2nd Order just as young master Kiran. In the Forest further to the West they were attacked by a horde of different beasts that were slowly defeated by both of them. We confirmed that young master has at least 6 Elements as of now ...which is crazy in my opinion if you don't mind me expressing myself... The Space Element that he already owned, the blaze Element that has somehow mutated, Some Powerful Element related to Forests and Jungles absorbed from that mutated Forest Wolf, The Pure Aqua and lightning elements that were absorbed but without any skills from the princess and the Mountain Element from that Kid of William Derivian. In that forest he grew to be more stronger while absorbing the cores and bodies of the ones he killed."

"And the Guardians and the princess? they saw all of that too?" Adam asked still head down.

"I am afraid so.. But as you know The Guardians are under direct Command of the Emperor and Kiran also grew quite more friendly with the princess, so-" The Hooded man that belong to The Secret Order was about to say something but then he heard:

"HAHAHAHA" Adam lifted his head up high and laughed like crazy, "That good, that's very good, that old man and I planned exactly for that to happen, now we only have to wait for the perfect time.." Adam smiled while looking through the only window in the room that didn't let in much light, but the view outside from the inside was definetly nothing else but beautiful.
