Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

"Charles, I really never expected this. Zane, the Taylor family because of you, they perished. In the end, even I fall into your hands," Carter chuckled bitterly, his face filled with reluctance.

A mere eighteen year old commoner. How did he manage to not only destroy the Taylor family but bring about such a tragic end for himself?

Seeing the murderous look in Charles's eyes, Carter knew that today, he was as good as dead.

But even if he were to die, he swore he wouldn't let Charles have it easy!

With that thought in mind, Carter continued, "Charles, aren't you the hero of Genosha? Don't you want to know who's silently allowing these things to happen, reaping the profits behind the scenes?"

"They're the ministers of Genosha, the ones holding the highest power in the kingdom. Charles, do you dare oppose them?"

"Do you dare?"

"Why are you silent? Aren't you afraid?" At this moment, Carter seemed like a madman, screaming and shouting in a frenzy.

When Charles finally stood before him, he spoke calmly, "You're wrong about one thing."

"What's that?" Carter was momentarily stunned.

"It's not that I want to oppose them. It's that they want to oppose me." Charles's voice was calm, but those words left everyone in the room speechless. No one dared speak. Even Carter, who had been shouting madly, paused, trying to understand the weight of those words.

A few seconds later, Carter finally realized what Charles meant.

"Well, no surprise there," Carter exhaled, a smile forming on his face.

There was no pain, no regret only a sense of admiration and respect.

The difference between Charles opposing them and them opposing Charles was vast. In the first case, the ministers of Genosha were positioned as high ranking figures, but in the second, they were mere fools trying to challenge a giant.

Only someone as talented as Charles could say such a thing with absolute confidence.

"I'll wait for you in hell, waiting for you or for those people," Carter closed his eyes, tilting his head slightly back, exposing his fragile neck.

Charles's gaze remained calm as his black gold long knife swung smoothly, slicing through Carter's neck.

Blood erupted like a fountain.

With a slight motion of his right hand, Charles flicked the blood off the blade.

He then turned his cold gaze toward the other trembling investigators, speaking in a detached tone, "The crimes you've committed will be investigated in the next few days. Don't even think about resisting, or your only outcome will be this."

"Death at my hands."

No one dared move a single step, all of them nervously licking their lips and swallowing.

Charles glanced at the stunned Matthew and continued issuing orders: "Have the soldiers from the Lord's Manor restrain these people."

"I'll need to mobilize the Beast Master army from Lsengard soon."

Matthew nodded forcefully, a bit frightened, and replied, "Lord Supervisor, you do have the authority to mobilize the Beast Master army, but could you perhaps explain what exactly needs to be done? Otherwise, the Beast Master troops might not be too happy about it."

Charles looked around, his tone resolute as he spoke: "Kill the enemies. Kill the real enemies."

The real enemies? Were those the actual members of the Evil Organization?

Matthew wanted to ask more, but upon seeing Charles turn away, he didn't dare pursue it further.

"By the way, no one at the banquet is allowed to leave the Lord's Manor. Someone, turn on the signal jamming equipment. I need everyone to cooperate for now," Charles added.

No one opposed. The blood on the floor of the banquet hall silently told the story of what had just transpired.

Everyone knew that Charles was not someone to provoke right now. He was undoubtedly filled with rage and bloodlust.

At that moment, Celestine, seeing Charles walking back, didn't show any fear or hesitation. Instead, she actively ran towards him.

As she ran, she pulled a tissue from her pocket and carefully wiped the blood from Charles's face.

"Are we going to fight later?" Celestine asked with a hint of concern.

Charles nodded.

Celestine took a deep breath, then said with a single sentence: "Be careful, try not to get hurt."

The crisis for the Stokes family had been temporarily resolved. Henry, watching Celestine act so intimately with Charles, had no complaints. Instead, he felt relieved.

"Good daughter! If it weren't for Charles, the Stokes family would be finished!" Henry thought to himself.

On the other side, David and Raj also walked over to Henry's side. They glanced at Charles, then turned to look at Henry, their faces showing envy.

"If I had known, I would have had more daughters," David murmured quietly.

Raj, on the other hand, looked at Celestine with a complicated expression. He knew that Celestine's talent was far superior to his own daughter Lily's.

"Maybe only a genius can stay by Charles's side forever," Raj sighed inwardly.

Since Charles left Lsengard, Lily had started looking for ways to grow stronger. She rarely called home, and Raj wasn't sure how things were going with her.

Under the watchful eyes of Henry, David, and Raj, a few more people began to slowly approach Charles.

They were the President of the Forging Masters Guild, the President of the Alchemist Guild, and the President of the Beast Master Guild.

Although Lsengard was a small city, it had a complete set of guilds, and the leaders of these guilds held a great deal of power.

Earlier, when David and Raj sought help, these individuals had all refused, but now, they were approaching Charles of their own accord.

"Lord Supervisor, we didn't expect you to appear in Lsengard. We weren't able to greet you properly, please forgive us," the President of the Alchemist Guild said humbly.

Charles acknowledged the gesture with a simple nod, but didn't say anything further. Instead, he chose to help the crying Beast Master to his feet and walked out with him.

Seeing this, the three guild leaders exchanged looks, silently sighing in resignation.

As Charles reached the door, as if something occurred to him, he turned back to look at the hall.

The three guild leaders thought Charles was about to speak to them, and they hurriedly took a few steps closer.

However, Charles was addressing Henry, David, and Raj: "Uncle Henry, David, Raj, you don't have to stay here any longer. Come with me."

David and Raj exchanged a look, both seeing joy and relief in each other's eyes.

They hadn't expected that even though Charles had become the Genosha Supervisor, he still hadn't put on airs and was treating them as he always had. However, while Charles could behave this way, the two of them knew they couldn't be unappreciative.

"Alright, Lord Supervisor," they said cautiously, then followed him out.

As they reached the door, they turned back to glance at the three guild leaders of Lsengard.

...

Half an hour later, in the office of Matthew, the Lord of Lsengard, the military officials of Lsengard, and Charles's group were all gathered, discussing matters.

"I've figured out the locations of those people, but we'll need to wait a day or two before we can begin operations," Charles said indifferently.

The person in charge of the Beast Master army furrowed his brow slightly. Though he didn't quite understand Charles's decision, he didn't question him.

At that moment, Charles suddenly closed his eyes.

A voice appeared in his mind: "Master, Master, a few more people have entered, and I can sense a strange aura."

"Strange aura? Is it a powerful Beast Master?" Charles quickly asked.

Mousie responded, "No, it's an aura I'm very familiar with. I have an instinctual longing for it, similar to what I sensed in the warehouse, but not exactly the same."

Upon hearing Mousie's words, Charles instantly realized something.

Mousie's longing? And similar to the Dark Altar that must be the material required for promotion, Heart of Darkness, right?

But back in the warehouse, those people had clearly said they would wait two more days before trying to transport the Heart of Darkness to Lsengard.

It's only just evening, and the Heart of Darkness is already here in Lsengard? Could something have changed?

Charles felt a bit puzzled but didn't pay it much attention. As long as there was no Level 7 Beast Master among these people, he had nothing to worry about.

Even if there were stronger Beast Masters, his life wouldn't be in danger. The worst case scenario would be using the golden quality mask that Cuny had given him.

Substitute Mask for the Ten Person Council (Golden Quality): A special mask personally forged by the President of the Beast Master Guild and the Master of the Tower, with unique properties.

Effect 1: Breath Concealment – The wearer can hide their aura, making it impossible for any being below a Level 9 Beast Master to detect their true strength.

Effect 2: Attribute Energy Absorption – The mask absorbs the attribute energy attacks of enemies, storing it within the mask, allowing the wearer to replenish their attribute energy at critical moments.

Effect 3: Phantom Summoning – By using blood and fire, a phantom image of Cuny, the Master of the Tower, can be summoned. The phantom's strength is influenced by the wearer's own power and fire attribute energy. Currently, the phantom summoned can have the power of a Level 9 Beast Master and will last for one minute.

Note: After performing Phantom Summoning, the mask will be damaged. If not repaired, all effects will disappear.

With the hidden aura effects of the Darkness Cloak and the Substitute Mask for the Ten Person Council, Charles could easily infiltrate their hideout, observe what changes had occurred, and then decide whether or not to take action.
