MTLNOVEL Chapter 413: You Won’t Blame Me, Right?
The mysterious figure straightened his posture and glanced back at Jamie, replying, "That's a question I'd like to know as well. But according to the Constellation organization, everything is a matter of fate."
"By the way, you should have all the intelligence and data related to Charles here. Hand it over to me later, I want to take a good look." the mysterious figure suddenly recalled.
He instinctively mumbled, "I really don't want to ask that old guy dean of yours for the information. He's a bit too annoying, too long-winded."
"Old guy?" Jamie's eyes widened.
The "old guy" he was referring to was the dean of Mons Academy, a person whose age was anyone's guess. He had already become a level nine Beast Master seventy years ago!
"I will give you the information on Charles, and I will also report this matter to the main academy. So you must ensure Charles's safety, and I cannot force him, this must be done with his consent." Jamie said, taking a deep breath.
This matter involved Charles, he couldn't back down and needed to make his stance clear to show the importance of Charles.
After all, Jamie didn't know much about The Cleansers. He wasn't sure what kind of people they were or whether they would pose a danger to Charles.
"Go ahead and report it. Don't worry, I just want to borrow Charles for a bit and complete a task assigned to me. I don't want any trouble." the mysterious figure said, rocking back and forth in the chair.
Jamie carefully sensed the figure's aura and realized he felt no trace of any elemental energy, nor any presence of a mystical beast.
This mysterious person seemed to be just an ordinary human!
Yet, he could appear silently in Jamie's office!
The power of [The Cleansers] was likely beyond what he could imagine, perhaps it was at a level beyond the legendary level nine Beast Master!

"That would be best. It's already late at night, and Charles must be asleep. Why not wait until tomorrow to ask him?" Jamie suggested cautiously.
To his surprise, the mysterious figure nodded in agreement and added, "By the way, could you also prepare a room for me? It must have a computer and a PS5. The equipment at the hotel outside is too poor and seriously affects my gaming experience."
Hearing this, Jamie was taken aback again, he didn't expect the other party to make such a request!
"Look closely at this token, it guarantees unconditional assistance. My request is not excessive at all!" The mysterious figure raised the token in his hand and said, somewhat displeased.
Jamie shook his head and replied, "Not excessive at all, completely reasonable. I'll have someone prepare it right away."
"Good! And remember to bring a few more bottles of cola." the mysterious figure said before disappearing.
Jamie took a deep breath, arranging for someone to prepare the room as the mysterious figure requested, while also quickly calling Nathaniel to inform him about the six monsters gathering towards Genosha.
In the Genosha royal palace,
Miles, dressed in a yellow silk pajamas, disregarded his appearance and looked at Nathaniel with concern, asking:
"Did Jamie really say that? Monsters comparable to a level nine Beast Master are gathering towards Genosha, and there are six of them?"
Nathaniel nodded, an unprecedented seriousness appearing on his face as he slowly replied, "That is indeed the case. However, Jamie mentioned that there are some things he can't disclose. Someone will deal with these monsters, but on one condition: Charles must agree."
"Charles must agree? Charles?" Miles's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
Charles was only a level four Beast Master, how could he possibly be the key to eliminating monsters comparable to a level nine Beast Master?
Someone would step in to deal with these monsters, but only if Charles agreed?
What on earth was happening, and why couldn't Jamie explain the details to them?
"Sigh, this world is getting more chaotic. Please keep a close eye on Charles, I trust him, especially after he said those words."
"If all those monsters appear in Genosha, it will cause massive panic. Who knows how many lives will be lost as a result."
Miles said weakly, he felt that as an emperor, he was truly inadequate, facing a threat to the nation's safety with no means to counter it.
Monsters with the strength of level nine Beast Masters, and there were six of them!
Even the Stone Kingdom, which has a level nine Beast Master, would be helpless in this situation, especially among the seven nations of the Abyssal Depths.
For now, we can only trust Jamie's words that someone will step in to resolve this matter.
"How about this: let part of the royal bloodline leave Genosha tonight and go to a safe place. Once everything is over, they can come back." Miles said slowly.
Nathaniel silently nodded, no matter who it was, knowing that six monsters comparable to level nine Beast Masters would soon appear, no one could simply act as if nothing was happening.
"Your Majesty, perhaps you should also..." Nathaniel began to say slowly.
Before he could finish his sentence, Miles wearily waved his hand, signaling him to stop.
"I'm different, I'm the emperor of Genosha. Since I've enjoyed the love and support of my people, I can't abandon them. If something unexpected happens, I will face it with them." Miles said without any hesitation.
He would not flee, even if there was an accident and he couldn't defeat the six monsters comparable to level nine Beast Masters, he would not leave.
His people needed him, especially in the most dangerous and desperate times—they needed him even more!
Nathaniel took a deep breath and nodded, then began to arrange various emergency matters.
It wasn't until the next morning when it was bright that he pretended as if nothing had happened and quietly returned home.
His son and daughter, Luna, were enjoying breakfast. When they saw Nathaniel come back, his son quickly sped up his eating, wanting to finish quickly and leave.
"Take your time, no rush. You don't need to go to work early today, just don't be late." Nathaniel said, waving his hand.
His son, the intelligence officer who had previously reported information about Charles to Nathaniel, looked at him with confusion upon hearing this.
In the past, Nathaniel had been very strict with him, requiring him to arrive at work earlier than his colleagues and to make no mistakes. He also wasn't allowed to call him "Dad" at work.
Nathaniel did not explain anything, instead, while slowly eating breakfast, he calmly said:
"I've been quite busy lately. How about taking a break for the next couple of days? You two can go somewhere else and relax."
Nathaniel's son and Luna exchanged puzzled glances and both replied, "No need."
"Father, I've finished eating and need to go to work. I'm leaving now." Nathaniel's son said slowly.
Nathaniel nodded, he just silently continued eating his breakfast.
Once everyone had left, Nathaniel let out a weary sigh.
"You two are my children, but there are countless other children in Genosha. I can only do so much. If danger truly arises, don't blame me." Nathaniel said as he leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes.
As a minister of Genosha, he had many things to consider. Jamie had said someone would handle those monsters.
But this situation was not guaranteed, six monsters strong enough to rival level nine Beast Masters!
Even if six level nine Beast Masters appeared to fight those monsters, how many innocent civilians would be affected in the process?
How many lives would be lost?
But there was no way around it, Genosha had no level nine Beast Masters!
Ezra was in the midst of a breakthrough. Even if he succeeded, it wouldn't change much.
Nathaniel took a deep breath, trying to massage the stiffness from his face with his hands as his wife walked out of the kitchen.
There were not many servants in Nathaniel's home, he disliked the feeling of enslaving others, and with just four people in the household, there was no need for extra help.
"What's wrong? You seem a bit off today. Did something happen?" The woman slowly walked up behind Nathaniel and began to massage his shoulders.
"Nothing's wrong, it's just that if something were to happen, would you blame me?" Nathaniel couldn't help but ask.
The woman's hands paused for a moment before she opened her arms and embraced Nathaniel, gently saying:
"No, you won't be blamed. The children won't blame you either, they all understand that you act for this country, for everyone."
Hearing this, Nathaniel nodded silently, then stood up, he still needed to return to work.
Meanwhile, in the Cyber Academy, in a private room on the second floor of the cafeteria.
Charles, as usual, was simply having breakfast with his mystical beast. Today, there wasn't much going on, he mainly planned to use his free time to train Max and the others to improve their mystical beast levels.
Just at that moment, as Charles leisurely enjoyed his breakfast, his body suddenly stiffened.
He felt a strange sensation in his heart and quickly turned his head, only to find nothing there.
"Master, what's wrong?" Max was the first to notice Charles's unusual behavior and quickly asked.
Charles shook his head at first, but the strange feeling persisted, as if someone was watching him from nearby.
"Max, do you feel like there's something inexplicably odd today?" Charles said slowly.
Max shook his head and responded, "No, Master, Max doesn't feel anything strange."
Charles nodded, he hadn't sensed any danger either and murmured, "It must be my imagination."
