Chapter 267: Shadow and Night, the Two Great Lords!
Chapter 267: Shadow and Night, the Two Great Lords!
"Surprised already? There's more to come that will astonish you even further." Seeing Sida's astonished expression, Yecheng revealed a playful look.
"Yecheng, did you create all this?"
Seeing the modern clothing and hamburgers in the hands of the pedestrians, Sida looked at the white-haired youth beside him, whom he regarded as both a friend and a rival.
Sida had known for a long time that Yecheng, like himself, was a transmigrator from another world, so it wasn't surprising that Yecheng possessed modern knowledge.
However, he hadn't expected that Yecheng would use that modern knowledge to make money, which was why he was both surprised and envious at this moment.
Not long after meeting Yecheng, he had realized that Yecheng was a transmigrator. After all, it was rare to find a child with such a high level of intellect at the age of eight.
Moreover, Yecheng had never hidden his status as a transmigrator from Sida. From time to time, he would casually mention words that didn't belong to this world in front of him.
If Sida, a "Shadow Power Seeker," was a transmigrator, then it made sense for his friend and rival, the "Hero," to also be from another world.
"Oh, do you think all these things are a result of my influence in this world? Then..."
"Honorable guests, would you please come with me for a moment?"
Just as Yecheng was about to reveal the truth to Sida, a beautiful young lady wearing the Tetra Cross Merchant Guild's uniform and with a fair face suddenly approached and bowed before Yecheng and Sida.
Seeing the aura of magic emanating from the beauty, Sida's eyes narrowed instantly, as if he understood something and nodded.
"Should I excuse myself? After all, if this is an internal affair, it might not be appropriate for me to be involved."
A beautiful young lady stood before them, looking solemn. Yecheng, who had been planning to take advantage of the situation to get some free daily necessities, felt a bit embarrassed and said, "There's no need. Lord Yecheng and Lord Sida are close friends, and they have helped us a lot in the past. Although they are not officially part of our group, everyone has long considered Lord Yecheng as one of us."
Hearing Yecheng's words, the chestnut-haired beauty immediately showed a panicked expression and respectfully addressed Yecheng.
Soon after, Yecheng and Sida were led by the beauty through a special passage into the back entrance of the Tetra Cross Merchant Guild.
"Lord Shadow, Lord Night, I am Nu, one of the Seven Shadows and a subordinate of Lord Gamma. I currently work as a staff member of the Tetra Cross Merchant Guild and am also in charge of intelligence work.
In the future, if there is important information to convey or notify the two lords, I will be the one to carry out the task."
As the chestnut-haired beauty led Yecheng and Sida into the inner area of the Tetra Cross Merchant Guild, she introduced herself while walking in front.
When she addressed Sida as "Lord Shadow," he seemed accustomed to it. However, when she called Yecheng "Lord Night," Yecheng couldn't help but feel a toothache.
The term "Lord Night" obviously referred to Yecheng, but such an over-the-top nickname couldn't possibly have been thought up by him. It must have been Sida who took the liberty of giving him this nickname!
In Sida's opinion, if Yecheng was the "Hero," he needed a resounding nickname to match. Otherwise, how could he be qualified to be Sida's most formidable rival?
And so, "Lord Night" was born. Whenever Sida operated as "Lord Shadow," he would address Yecheng as "Lord Night."
Alpha and the other "Seven Shadows" had been interacting with Shadow for a long time, and they assumed that Yecheng also needed an alias to hide his identity. Over time, they began to refer to Yecheng as "Lord Night."
Since the high-ranking officials of the Night Shadow Court, the "Seven Shadows," addressed Yecheng in this manner, it was only natural for the lower-level members to follow suit and call him "Lord Night."
Yecheng and Sida walked down a long corridor and opened a massive door, revealing a large room before them.
A red carpet had been laid out, and at the end of it stood a luxurious throne. Gamma, the third seat among the Seven Shadows, with her smooth, black, long hair, had been waiting by the throne for a while.
"Lord Night, I truly apologize. I didn't expect you to come with Lord Shadow, so I didn't prepare a special seat for you."
Gamma first respectfully invited Shadow to take a seat, and then bowed to Yecheng, expressing her apologies.
"Please, don't be like that. I'm not a member of your 'Night Shadow Court,' and I shouldn't be here in such a secret place. It's a bit unreasonable to receive special treatment."
Hearing Yecheng's words, Gamma smiled lightly, "Lord Night is just joking. Although Lord Yecheng has never acknowledged being a part of the 'Night Shadow Court,'
"Both Lord Night and we Seven Shadows consider him as one of our own in our hearts.
Setting aside Lord Shadow, we Seven Shadows and the others in the Night Shadow Court sincerely respect and are grateful to Lord Night."
Gamma's words were heartfelt, as she truly believed what she said. Although Yecheng had never acknowledged being a part of the 'Night Shadow Court,' he had always been a great help to them.
Apart from the "Seven Shadows," the Night Shadow Court had numerous members, mostly known as "Possessed Demons."
These "Possessed Demons" joined the 'Night Shadow Court' after being saved by the "Seven Shadows," and although they didn't possess the same level of prestige as the Seven Shadows, they gained a certain level of strength by controlling the Diabros' runaway power. They were known as the 'Numbered Ones' within the Night Shadow Court.
Among these 'Numbered Ones,' many were not saved by the Seven Shadows but by Yecheng himself.
Even when members of the Seven Shadows were in danger and Lord Shadow couldn't arrive in time, Alpha, the leader of the Seven Shadows, would send people to seek Yecheng's help.
So far, Yecheng had rescued the Seven Shadows from perilous situations several times. Despite Yecheng's persistent denial of being a member of the 'Night Shadow Court,' the Seven Shadows and the Numbered Ones below them were well aware that within the Night Shadow Court, there existed not only Lord Shadow but also Lord Night.
As for why Lord Night and Lord Shadow refused to acknowledge this, Beta, the analytical member of the Seven Shadows, had drawn a conclusion.
Both Lord Night and Lord Shadow possessed unparalleled strength in the entire world. People like them were absolute rulers wherever they went.
As for the 'Night Shadow Court' as an organization, there could only be one ruler at the top. Therefore, Lord Shadow became the leader, and Lord Night had to step aside.
