After thinking for a moment, he then decided to ask. "Then why-why did you capture us?"

Cygnus let out a loud laugh that echoed in the dungeon. "Why?" He repeated the man's question. Cygnus brushed his hair up and crouched down to look at the man in the eye. "It's because I am going to torture you and let you experience the true meaning of pain."

The man was stumped and rendered speechless. He did not know how he should react because of the statement. 'Why would this man torture them when this was the first time that they would be seeing each other?' He silently asked himself.

"Are you sure that this is the first time you've seen me?" Cygnus asked loudly.

The other prisoners in the cells were already awake at that time and were all listening to him. They were all thinking about the same thing. In their one thousand years of living, they did what they wanted and killed those who went against them. No one would know who they were before they became immortals.

"A very presumptuous assumption. Did you think that your sins of the past would be covered up by the passage of time? Well, all of you are wrong because I am here to remind you of what you did." Cygnus stood up and took a step back as he admired how these people were being detained in a cell. "But before I do that, I will invite one more person to join you all."

He turned around and walked back towards the gate. He suddenly stopped and without looking back the master spoke, "Ah yes, I forgot to remind you all, enjoy your stay in this place."

After that event, the people who captured the Circle of Eight returned to their duties. Cygnus on the other hand wrote a letter to the man who was enroute to where their meeting place was. He entrusted the letter to one of Ignius's minions and instructed it to wait at the rendezvous point.

Aberleign was on his way to the place where he and the others agreed to meet. He wanted to talk to them and also to warn them that they should be careful. It took him a day to travel and during the night, he found an inn where he could temporarily stay.

Early the next morning, he departed and reached a secluded place between the kingdom of Lunaira and El Merey. It was a small forest thought to be inhabited and no one usually enters this forest. So, they decided to meet at that place.

It took him an hour to finally reach the center of the forest where a lake was calmly situated. He looked around but saw that none of the members of the Circle of Eight was there. He frowned and he suddenly felt that there was something in the room.

Matter concerning the circle would always make the members anxious and their desire to fix it would always prompt them into action. This time it was concerning that none of them showed up when it was already time for their meeting. Aberleign let his guard up when he realized that someone was actually in that place.

The man was hidden behind the trees and he was dressed in an all-black clothing like that of a butler. He was also wearing white gloves and had a head of black hair. His skin was tanned unlike the common skin of the citizens of Lunaira.

Aberleign carefully approached the man and he stopped at a distance. The man felt his presence so, he side-stepped and looked at the person who came. He gave Aberleign a quick look before he too stepped forward.

"Welcome Sir Aberleign Sunox, an esteemed member of the Circle of Eight," the man bowed. "My master wanted to meet you in person, so he sent me to meet you and give you this letter." He stretched out his hand and handed Aberleign the sealed letter.

Aberleign received the letter and stared at it for a few seconds. "Who are you and who is your master? Is he the World Breaker?"

The man actually smiled and shook his head. "My master, you will meet him if you follow what is written on that letter."

The man bowed and did not give him any more information about who the owner of the letter was. He then turned around and walked away. He went in the opposite direction of where the elder came from. Aberleign watched as he disappeared behind the foliage and after that the feeling of being watched disappeared.I think you should take a look at

Even after reaching the inn where he stayed, he could only stare at the sealed letter. He did not know if he should really open it or ignore it. He took several deep breaths before he finally had the courage to remove the seal and unfold the letter that was in it.

Aberleign silently read the letter and even did it for the second time before he threw it on the table. There was not much written in the letter, only an address and a few words. He stood up and prepared to leave once again. There was no point in him pondering over that letter so he should just go and meet the one behind it.

The letter he left behind disintegrated and disappeared. Now, only Aberleign knew what the contents of it were. Instead of using his carriage, he opted for a horse for faster travel. He rode the whole night without rest until he reached a very familiar place. He had been to that place a couple of times because he had been visiting his future disciple.

The gate was opened as if welcoming him and without hesitation he stepped inside the manor. He rode to the manor's front door and alighted from his horse. The door was even opened, so he entered without any fuss. The manor was silent as the servants were not there to greet him.

His attention was caught by the light that was still in the manor's living room. Aberleign walked in there and saw that Rigel was there. He was reading a book and only the flipping of pages could be heard inside the place. Aberleign casually took an empty seat in front of the young man and they remained silent for a while.

"I never thought that you would be the one. I never noticed." These were Aberleign's first words after a moment of silence between them.

Cygnus closed the book he was reading and placed it on the table before he faced the elder who came to the manor because of the letter. He did not like going into circles so he just straight up told him to return to the capital and meet him at the Ginehart manor. Since he was the only character missing from his play, it was only a waste of time to play with him when he could do that after capturing him.

"That's because you don't know how to look," Cygnus answered. He shook his head and even sighed, "You were only looking at my ability."

Aberleign did not answer. He did not have words to refute that claim because it was the truth. He stayed silent for a moment before he spoke again. "Why are you targeting us? And are you the World Breaker?"

"You know, every time I hear that name, I can't help but shudder. I do not know how that knight even came up with that ridiculous name!" He exclaimed followed by a sigh. "I really don't like that name."

This answer confirmed the second question that Aberleign asked. He gritted his teeth because they were obviously played. The person the world has been looking for was actually just here. He had been interacting and even thought that the person would become his disciple.

Aberleign thought that this must be the reason why he was reluctant to accept his offer. This man was truly dangerous, his façade was perfect that no one would even suspect him. He already established himself as the second son of Duke Ulysses Ginehart and the whole family attested to it. He was a terrifying man.

"Terrifying? That's a very creative way to describe me but I think so too. I am terrified that sometimes I feel terrified of unintentionally destroying this world without even having my revenge." Cygnus laughed after he read what was inside the man's head.

"Revenge?" The elder grasped this key point and the room suddenly became cold. His gaze landed on Rigel and saw that he was looking at him like he was already a dead man.

"Let me ask you something Aberleign, have you ever heard the name Altair?" Cygnus asked with a straight face.

The elder flinched at the mention of that name. It was a name he would not forget for the rest of his life. If not for that incident a thousand years ago, he would have died already and would not be living a cursed life. He thought he was going to gain power but, in the end, all they got was immortality but their power did not grow.
