Chapter 535 Emilia In News

"What?" Lucas said in a low tone. He wasn't expecting such an answer.

He then continued, "Elaborate."

[Answering…]

The system then told Lucas that he had miscalculated things by a huge margin. And then it gave a reason that Lucas didn't factor the butterfly effect enough.

It also told Lucas that he didn't have a backup plan for things if all went wrong and gave his everything to just this one opportunity.

After listening to all of that, Lucas felt something odd. He then said, "So… Why didn't you warn me beforehand to make a backup plan? Why were there no hints or heads up?"

The system was doing everything it can to have Lucas get stronger. It not only made opportunities for Lucas but the rewards were getting better from the missions and everything else.

He failed to understand why the system didn't prepare him better for the current situation. Won't having an all elemental affinity help him in stopping the apocalypse even faster? Isn't that the end goal?

Isn't Lucas the only hope and isn't it why he's the one sent back in time?

Why was the system not helping him then?

Despite asking many questions, the system didn't say anything.

Lucas now felt that something was really fishy about this system but he failed to realize what.

Just as he was thinking about it, the system's voice interrupted him, stating,

[Another plausible reason for the host's failure is due to them.]

"Hmm?" This message caught Lucas's attention. "Them who?"

[The ones who will be causing the apocalypse.]

The system didn't take the name, but Lucas very well knew who they were.

He then pondered over things and thought deeply about it.

Lucas knitted his brows as his thoughts continued but he was falling to understand how 'they' would be the reason for such a failure.

As far as Lucas knew, he hadn't come into contact with them even for a single moment. He hadn't taken their names as well. Those people were at such a high position that they shouldn't even know about Lucas's existence. So how come they were involved?

Many questions popped into Lucas's mind.

A few hours passed with him thinking over things deeply. But in the end, he had nothing to take note of and couldn't find reasons.

But one thing was for sure, he may have miscalculated but also, those people could be responsible.

Lucas sighed thinking of this and said, "Why must they cause the apocalypse and why are they responsible for me not getting an all elemental affinity? What will they get by doing so?"

Although he said that, the reality was that the concerned people didn't actually give any care to his all elemental affinity.

The reason for his failure was purely due to the change in events that were caused and no direct intervention from anyone.

It was totally Lucas who miscalculated, but oh well, he needed someone to put the blame on for now as he wanted to feel a little better.

Now that this opportunity was gone, it would be extremely difficult to find someone having seven elemental affinities that were totally different from Lucas's.

It was so difficult that it was almost impossible.

Lucas didn't have the time or energy to find someone like that and he had to now find someone with five or six elemental affinities that were different from him.

Finding someone with six was difficult as well and the only thing he could have with him is five at best.

In any case at the end of the day, no matter what Lucas did, he wouldn't be an all elemental mage, knowing which hurt him a lot.

This was a great loss, one that Lucas would never recover from and would regret at all times.

This may even form a heart demon in him, but thankfully, Lucas was someone with a lot of experience and knew what to do to avoid such a thing.

After a while of just lying around, Lucas decided to update himself with the news of the world and to distract himself.

Lucas had spent all his money on the last mission. He did everything he could but didn't succeed.

Paying the immortals, buying potions, everything cost a lot of money and he was so broke that now, he was just two hours away from begging on the streets.

It pained him knowing all the money he amassed from the hardwork went down the drain. But nothing could be done now. What was gone was gone.

To distract himself, he opened his phone to update himself with the latest news.

As he opened it and checked the, the headline from the news he read made him raise both his eyebrows. <.com>

"BREAKING NEWS!"

"The Principal of the Abalax World Academy makes an appearance!"

There were many flashy headlines and it was all over the internet.

As Lucas read things, he got to know that the Principal of the Abalax World Academy, the War Angel, had an issue to address to the world. Thus, she was making an appearance.

This news would be live telecasted from the Abalax World Academy itself and would air in a few hours.

Feeling interested, he kept an eye on it and stayed in the cave, doing nothing but surfing the internet and distracting himself.

Meanwhile, Lucas was not the only one in the world to be interested in this news.

The entire Angel Continent was in an uproar knowing the War Angel would make a public appearance. They were bouncing off the walls and partying, knowing that finally, after a long long time, their angel could be seen by them.

They had only seen her in the church but now finally, they could see her live!

What a time to be alive, they thought.

The demons on the other hand, they were excited for completely different reasons.

They could finally get a high level Seraphim's image and would have an opportunity to tarnish and spread rumours/do many evil things with the live video. They couldn't wait for such a thing to happen.

As for the humans, dragons, vampires, and werewolves, and witches, they were interested too, but not to a high degree like the angels and demons.

But yes, they were pretty interested knowing they would be able to see how a Seraphim looks.

Almost the entire world, except for a select few, have not seen any high ranking being in the world. Not to mention a Seraphim.

This news was thus very interesting and something to look forward to.

This was the overall reaction of the general public.

But, the higher ups of the different races were pretty interested in this event as well and the Heavenly Court and the Seven Sins were having a mild chaos in their respective places.

Heavenly Court, Angel Continent.

"Your Majesty, I don't think she should make an appearance." An Angel King said respectfully, addressing to the court and the Heavenly Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the court should know that she's an individual that has the right to act as she pleases. She's not bound the court and we don't possess the right to say what she should and shouldn't do. The others are failing to understand this." Another Angel King said respectfully.

Many more people stood from their seats and commented their opinions.

As usual, the discussion in the court was heated.

Some were for, some were against, and some were neutral about the War Angel making a public appearance.

The Heavenly Emperor, Alex Paladin, listened to all their comments one by one without interrupting them. He was used to such things and it was almost everyday did he hear mixed opinions on everything.

The people in the court had to maintain decorum and they couldn't shout or yell at each other. They could address each other but they had to do it in an indirect manner or would need permission from the Emperor to speak.

After a while of discussion, Alex raised his hand, indicating them to be quiet.

He then said calmly, "A Seraphim would never do unwanted things. If she wants to make an appearance, there could be reasons. We should wait and watch. If something goes wrong, we must extend our hands to support her and correct those wrongs."

The people in the court didn't like this comment from the Emperor. But they also couldn't say anything against it since the words of the King of Angels were the final verdict.

But still, someone couldn't help but say, "But Your Majesty, she's not bound to the Heavenly Court."

Alex didn't get angry for someone stating their opinion. He instead calmly replied by nodding his head, "She may not be. But this doesn't mean that she isn't our responsibility."

Alex leaned forward on and explained further, "No matter what, every angel in this world, be it a commoner or a Seraphim, they are the responsibility of the Heavenly Court. It is our job to look after them even if they aren't tied to us."

"The Angel Continent is their home, the Heavenly Court is the body to look after their interests and well being. We are all one family — branches of the same tree like how the Elves say it."

"No matter what an Angel does, as long as the being is an Angel, the Heavenly Court would look after them. Not just them, even to some extent, we must even offer help to the fallens while we can."

Alex leaned back after saying so and watched the reactions of the Angel Kings calmly.

The people in the Heavenly Court fell silent as they heard that.

This silence continued for a good while as they Angel Kings were digesting the information given by the Emperor.

Finally after a while…
