God of War: Pinnacle (The Protector) Chapter 2385

Chapter 2385 His Conjecture

Overwhelmed by his despondency, the divine brigadier overlooked a few key points. Now that he had some time alone, he realized a few things were off about Dark Emperor.

Nobody knew Dark Emperor’s true identity, but he did. Dark Emperor used to be his junior, and she loved him. However, that love was unrequited, and the divine brigadier married Edmund’s mother. Shortly after their marriage, Edmund’s mother passed away in an accident.

Back then, Dark Emperor used that opening to date the divine brigadier and had his child. However, when the divine brigadier found out that Dark Emperor was the one who killed Edmund’s mother, he almost killed her out of rage.

She was only spared because she was pregnant with their child back then. However, the divine brigadier exiled her and banned her from ever entering Erudia again. If she ever broke that rule, he would kill her.

Since then, he planted the seed of hatred in Dark Emperor, and she started creating an organization overseas to bolster her strength. She did all that just so she could come back to Erudia one day and go toe to toe with The Cardinal Hall. If that came to pass, she could talk to him on equal footing.

She would not stop at anything to achieve her goals, and the likes of Zoey were just her pawns. However, her plan failed, for Levi showed up and wiped her off the face of this earth.

The divine brigadier knew how deep Dark Emperor’s hatred ran. It was unimaginable, so he knew she’d scoff at him if she defeated him. But back then, Dark Emperor didn’t even say a word to him. The first thing ‘she’ did was attack him.

Right after she defeated him, she went away without even saying a word.

That woman’s hatred has been going on for decades. Why didn’t she say anything to me after she beat me?

Odd. Something’s off. If that’s really her, she would have been ecstatic to have beaten me in a fair fight. There’s no way she could have stayed that calm. Weird. Something’s not right with her.

Wait. Can it be that’s not the real Dark Emperor? It could have been someone else who’s wearing her mask.

Finally, the divine brigadier had a stroke of inspiration. He knew the real Dark Emperor too well. After all, she was his junior. Vengeance might grant her great power, but it was destined to be a limited one. It was impossible for her to be the strongest in the world.

In other words, he should have won against her easily.

He was right. The real Dark Emperor would have stood no chance against him. It was the absolute and undisputed truth.

And there was another thing. Dark Emperor was being more active as of current, and Sacred Organization was going around as well. That was obviously opposite to what Dark Emperor used to do.

Aside from that, Dark Emperor’s power level was off the charts. All the organizations had evaluated Dark Emperor’s strength, and they deduced that she was about on par with number two and three.

However, Dark Emperor defeated him easily. That was obviously not the kind of power anyone on the Divine Leaderboard should have.

Something’s wrong. It’s a different person. Dark Emperor is a different person now. That person I met was a fake one. That’s not Dark Emperor. The top fighter on Divine Leaderboard is not the same person everyone thinks she is.

Where did she go though, now that her place is taken? Probably the grave. Or maybe she’s in trouble.

Back when the divine brigadier was out and about, he paid a visit to Sacred Organization’s headquarters, where Levi was held in the Prison of Darkness.

He saw the prison before, and he knew there was a prisoner inside who was trying to break free from the cell. But he knew it was impossible as it was bound to be a futile attempt.

The Prison of Darkness was an invention from Erudia, so he knew just how powerful it was.

Back then, he knew Dark Emperor was on the move. When he went back to Sacred Organization’s headquarters again, Levi was already gone. The Prison of Darkness was broken, and the landscape changed, literally. When he saw that, he knew Dark Emperor was in deep trouble.

Hm, if my guess is right, the fake Dark Emperor is the probably the one who broke the Prison of Darkness. The real one is probably dead at this point.

Her killer took her mask and impersonated her. So he must be the one who I met earlier. No wonder he managed to take me down with a single punch. And he probably wasn’t even using his full force and that was why he managed to break the Prison of Darkness.

The divine brigadier gasped, and he was drenched in sweat.
