THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 627 Reason

After dealing with the crowd, the committee finally took a breath of relief. The Six Pavilion Lords were in complete emotion state. They took charge for the city. But even they didn't have any confidence in dealing with the precarious situation they were in. But appearance of Arjun and Jimmy has changed the entire scenario. They not only restored their former glory, but they also added some more cities under their jurisdiction. Their military forces was now at a state where they need not to fear anyone.

But one thing truly disappointed the Six Pavilion Lords. Jimmy didn't tell them about the plan of capturing the Silverlight City. Even though it was the fact to be happy about, as the heads of the committee, they thought that they needed to be informed about such an important events. And yet Jimmy didn't discuss about attacking the Silverlight City. This fact truly disappointed the Six Pavilion Lords.

After the storm settled down in the city, the committee finally held a meeting session. All Six Pavilion Lords and Jimmy sat on their seats and started the meeting. Jimmy looked at the disappointed gazes from the Six Pavilion Lords and asked, "What happened? Why are you all so disappointed?"

They looked at each other. Finally Bill said, "Brother! We were wondering why did you not tell us about you plan to attack Silverlight city in advance?"

Jimmy sighed. He finally understood the reason behind their disapoointed faces. He said, "I truly wanted to. But even I made the ast moment decision to attack the Silverlight City."

"Even though, you wanted to attack, you could have told us about your plan, right?" ,Daniel said, "I don't want to go against you. But you should remember one thing Brother. You should remember that we are also the part of the committee!"

"I know that I have gone against the rukes of committee a little." ,Jimmy sincerely said, "But listen to me carefully first. Then you can decide whether what I did was wrong or right."

The Six Pavilion Lords didn't know what was so serious that made even the calm Jimmy to say such things. But they didn't say anything as they knew that they were about to receive their answer.

Jimmy said, "I told you that the alliance that wanted to capture our city might not limited to just five cities. There might be a bigger plot brewing behind our backs. And my guess became right. Burning Water city was also wanted to capture our city."

The Six Pavilion Lords nodded their heads. They knew this part very well. And isn't this the reason why they attacked the Burning Water City in advance?

Jimmy continued, "But I felt that something doesn't seem right. If Burning Water City truly wanted to capture our city, there is no need to form any alliance. The army of Burning Water City alone was enough to capture our city. If even they showed any intentions of capturing our city, then would any other City dare to compete against the city like the Burning Water City?"

"Brother... You mean..." ,Bill felt that he suddenly understood something. But he couldn't understand what exactly it is.

"Your guess is right." ,Jimmy said, "Such an arrogant and greedy City Lord wouldn't form any alliance. He would rather send his army to take our city down. And if he put a check to his arrogance and formed the alliance of all other eight city, then there might only be one reason behind it. He was forced to form an alliance against us."

"Forced to form an alliance?" ,Andrew said, "But who could have guts and capability to force even the City Lord Bollard to form an alliance?"

"Someone who has even greater military strength than the Burning Water City. Someone who has even greater political power than Burning Water City." ,Jimmy said, "And who could be strong enough to force the Burning Water City t form an alliance with other City other than the Regional Lord?"

"Regional Lord?" ,Everybody were stunned on the spot. The Regional Lord is the existence that is even higher than the City Lord! He is a mighty existence that they can't fathom. And yet, their opposition was actually the Regional Lord? How wouldn't they be shocked?

"At first, I felt that I might be wrong. Because why exactly there is a need for Regional Lord to form such a grand plan behind our back? I might be wrong." ,Jimmy said, "After all, if the Regional Lord wanted to capture our City, then all he needed to do is to send some of his troops. There was not necessary to execute such a grand scheme. But I couldn't think anyone else that has the power to force the Burning Water City to form an alliance to take our City down!"

"Only if the Regional Lord forced the Burning Water City to form an alliance and capture our City, everything fits the story." ,Jimmy continued, "That means, we can't rule out the possibility for Regional Lord to be the mastermind. I then started to device the plan to take Burning Water City down with intentions of Regional Lord being the main mastermind behind all this s.h.i.+t!"

"Then, I didn't want to neglect the fact of spy plantation within our City. Even your pavilion might have a spy planted within it. I just didn't want to take any unnecessary risk. If you want to deceive your spy, then you need to deceive your allies first! I used this old saying and put it into action. You people fought in the war as if the Burning Water City is the only target we had in our mind. Don't underestimate the eyes of a spy. I could predict many things from your actions and your eyes. That's why. I had to keep it a secret from all of you. I hope you understand."

"No need to be apologetic brother!" ,Bill said, "We understand now. The only reason why we were worried about your action is because in the past you never hid anything away from us. We were under the impression that all of us has a very good understanding among us. But as you hid such a big event away from us we thought that you are breaking the rules of the committee."

Daniel said, "Guys! I think we need to worry about the bigger issue! Brother you said that this was just your a.n.a.lysis. But you didn't have any proof right? The proof which proves the mastermind behind all this is actually the Regional Lord!"
