My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 245: Control Over The World

"Didn't I explain things to you? It was Agrona who planned all of this, do you not understand how dangerous that guy was, he even broke the treaty by killing our people and blamed it on someone else. It is our mistake that got our people killed since we attacked innocent people who had no relation to the incident," Kazees shouted at the face of everyone, his words were true if you look at them 'normally'.

Normally this type of words wouldn't be something the Asuras would listen to since everyone has their own interests, but the scary thing was how Kazees was behaving.

This was nothing but a brave front because on the inside Kazees was scared, he was so scared that standing near Haru was already hard enough for him much less talk, if the Asuras weren't here he would be on his knees with his head in the ground.

The clan leaders understood that the red-haired man wasn't to be trifled with as Kazees current appearance showed that. The two had settled this thing in 'private' and the result was clear.

They have fucked up and there is nothing they can do about it. because if they push their luck this very well might be their end.

The clan leaders nodded because they didn't want to make things more troublesome than they had already become, they have already lost a lot of their fighters in the skirmish even without Haru and Queresha participating, and they didn't want to find out what would happen if those two attacked as well.

"On behalf of the Asuras, I accept the peace treaty," Kazees spoke to Haru who nodded with a light smile.

"Then I'd be waiting for my compensation for this, Until next time you all," Haru waved his hand making him and his party vanish from the place.

'How did things get to this?' Kazees gritted his teeth feeling the seal on his very soul, if only he didn't act rashly he wouldn't have fallen this deep into the pit. He could only look up at the dark sky without any moon and shivered in fear.

The night was unusually colder for him today.

"Let's go back we have a lot of things to do," Kazees said and the remaining Asuras planned to make their way back to Epheotus while the leaders were sure that major changes were about to be made.

Back at Xyrus, Noble residential district,

Haru was sitting on a chair on the balcony with Jin-woo while the girls were cleaning up after the battle.

"Haru how much of the battle did you plan?" Jin-woo asked.

"Why do you ask?" Haru raised a brow and asked a question of his own.

"I was watching the fight and wanted to neutralize the Aether users but everyone was moving weirdly, just the right amount of people to push the others while the Aether users which were their biggest trump card didn't even make a move, I was curious so I looked closer to see them all in a daze and no one was paying any attention to them," Jin-woo said while Haru smiled a bit.

"Well I just wanted to create a situation and not let them go overboard, Even if Kanae and Hae-in would've taken care of it with Zenobia but this was too much for Alea and Jin-ah, and I can't have you take away jin-ah so I had to work harder, so this is partially because of you," Haru answered with a light dissatisfaction on his face.

'Really now? You even went through the trouble so that they don't transform into their beast forms,' Jin-woo scoffed in his mind since Haru was probably planning on doing this even if he didn't give him a reason for it, Maybe Haru would've gone with a different way but he was about to do it regardless since it was something jin-ah needed. And most importantly...

"It is not like you were going to let me take her away even if she couldn't overcome it," Jin-woo shrugged and Haru smiled without denying it.

"Anyway the point is she was able to get over it and that is all that matters," Haru said as Jin-woo nodded he saw himself how Jin-ah turned one of them into crumbling ice before it could attack Alea.

"Also it wouldn't have mattered if I took out the Aether users or not," Haru said and Jin-woo looked a bit confused.

"How? You know they can stop time and even have destructive attacks along with teleportation to boot, how would that do no damage when the ones present couldn't even counter it?" Jin-woo asked but Haru didn't answer his question.

"That was because I prepared for it," Queresha spoke as she walked onto the terrace with a tray in her hand.

"What did you do?" Jin-woo asked as he was curious about what countermeasures she took since she took off so quickly before the fight even started.

Queresha gave Haru a cup of tea with some Castella before looking at Jin-woo.

"I left behind a coded device with everyone that can counter Aether-powered spells and attacks but it wasn't without its downsides, it can only be kept running for 1 minute but that is more than enough time for Hae-in and Kanae to finish off the Aether users," Queresha explained as she handed Jin-woo a tea cup while placing castella on the table in front of him.

Jin-woo thought of Hae-in who specialized in speed with kanae being right behind her and it was clear that 1 minute was enough for them to kill the Aether users several times over.

"I would like to have one so that I can examine it as well," Jin-woo asked Queresha.

"If you can pay for it I have no problem, But it would take a month or so since I have many things to do," Queresha answered with a blank face.

Jin-woo wanted to have it sooner and was about to ask for Haru's help in negotiations but….

'He is already lost in the castella, I guess I'll just wait for a month during that time I'll increase my training,' Jin-woo shook his head seeing Haru eat the castella with a foolish smile. This guy always got distracted whenever sweet was in the mix.

Jin-woo also decided to eat some and it was really good.

"Can I have some more?" Jin-woo asked Queresha. "That was the last of it," She answered and Jin-woo sighed, he rarely liked eating something sweet and he couldn't even have some.

"Resha I want more~," Haru asked for more with a sweet smile.

"As you say, My Lord," Queresha nodded placing three more slices on Haru's plate by taking them out of her inventory.

Jin-woo paused looking at this and looked at Queresha.

"Cough* it was kept for My Lord separately," Queresha coughed and looked away.

'The bias here is insane,' Jin-woo deadpanned.

"Here have one, I'll be having some ice cream later anyway," Haru just gave one to Jin-woo.

"How can you eat so much sugar? And where does it go? This is the one thing I have never understood about you since childhood," Jin-woo sighed since he was quite used to seeing Haru eat several tubs of ice cream, boxes of chocolates, and candies in a single day.

"It is my secret ability, No matter how much sugar I have, it doesn't affect me," Haru said with a huge smile.

[A/N: This is the first time I have felt jealous of a character I wrote, Damn it, I want thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat,]

"That is the most useless secret ability I have ever heard," Jin-woo shook his head.

"Now this is where you are wrong my friend, Many people were jealous of me you know," Haru said with an evil grin, He can already hear a guy in a wheelchair shouting his head off.

"Plus I need to eat a lot since planning consumes a lot of energy," Haru shrugged while devouring the castella.

"I see, So what did you really get after doing all of this? I already know that the thing with Jin-ah was a side objective," Jin-woo said while shaking his head.

"Control over the world," Haru said with a smile.

"...What?" Jin-woo was a bit dumbfounded.

"It is as I said I have full control over this world, Or should I say the ruling class of this world," Haru corrected himself.

"No I got that, but how did you do it?" Jin-woo was interested now since he didn't know what haru had been doing here this whole time.
