My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2766

With about a week left before the leaders of Drakonia and Sand Country were set to communicate, Dusky and his team gained insight into the upcoming talks. To ensure Elias’ safety during the event, he, Nicky, and Zeodria decided to remain hidden and protect him from the shadows.

Meanwhile, undercover operatives had also begun rising to the surface. Before focusing on their role to protect, Dusky and his team aimed to complete the task assigned to them by Xenoth.

Through careful investigation, they finally obtained valuable clues. Perhaps the news of the upcoming talks had provoked the undercover agents. Surprisingly, they had split into two factions.

One group, taking an extreme approach, wanted to stop the capital at all costs, while the other opted for a more cautious, long-term strategy. Dusky and his team followed the clues left by the extremists and stumbled upon an opportunity.

In a luxurious hotel room, Dusky opened a video on his phone and showed it to the others.

“Take a look at this,” he said.

The video showed a man bursting with godly power and recklessly destroying public property. Suddenly, his body was obliterated by the very energy within him, creating mass panic at the scene.

Zeodria was puzzled. “Why did the divine power destroy him? Aren’t they on the same side?”

Dusky explained, “Looks like there's a strict hierarchy within the organization. Those more deeply affected by divine power have the authority to control ordinary followers at will. That's not the point, though."

Dusky zoomed in on a corner of the video. The two leaned in and noticed a mysterious figure observing the scene intently. At the exact moment the man disintegrated, this figure’s gaze turned wild and frenzied.

"Is he part of their organization?" Zeodria asked.

Nicky, who had been quiet up to this point, spoke up, "That figure could very well be one of the gods of the West."

Seeing their hesitation, Dusky said again, "Let me show you something." He reached into the air and pulled out a small, intricate mechanical box. It was a divine mechanism—Twilight

"You're familiar with its history right, Nicky?"

Nicky's eyes narrowed, and he nodded. "This was crafted by a mechanical genius I once fought alongside with. It creates a fair dueling field. And this one is specially designed to target gods."

Zeodria looked puzzled. "What do you mean… specifically for gods?"

Nicky shot him a smirk. "Kid, it seems you don’t know of my exploits."
