The Path of the Great Sovereign 154 The Time Has come

Itachi sat calmly in the Office of the Chancellor as he reviewed the reports of the Ghost Division. As he looked at the writing on the papers in front of him his face turned into a frown before he tapped three times on his desk.

Every member of the Imperial Family has them but the Guards for the High-Emperor, Empress, Chancellor, and the Imperial elders have are a much more dangerous force. Selected and trained from birth these highly skilled and specialized individuals only act in a state of emergency. Covert ops is their Magna Carta, assassination, infiltration, the list goes on and on yet the main fact is that if they are called into action there is no hope for their enemy.

When ruling a Nation or any massive organization the dark side and the light are two things that go hand and hand, over the years Itachi has realized that more than anyone. As they have moved from one plane to the next Itachi always stays behind to "Clean up" the undesirables which would threaten the peace. Yet this time these ungrateful individuals are acting outside of the script the High-Emperor is still present yet they have already started to move.

Itachi is a very peaceful and loving person, yet it is precisely the reason why he can be the most savage and bloodthirsty. Looking at the 5 dressed in black kneeling before him Itachi threw away his naive vestige and donned one more fitting of the puppeteer of the Darkness of the Empire.

He wrote down a list of names, the people on this list had no clue but this was their death note. The time, place, even conditions of their deaths were written down as if it was a simple shopping list then handed to the group. One they memorized the information the list was then burned, like a calm breeze they exited Itachi's office.

After they were gone Itachi turned back into his usual self as he started writing appointments for their replacements.

Back to Tatsuo on the Divine Continent, he looked at the remaining Divines with the gaze of a ruler. Retracting his gaze he turned to Dugu Bo and gestured for him to come forward.

"The Remaining continents will be little to no trouble so I won't be needed during that time. You will command the Expedition forces as you continue the conquest, follow the usual protocol and all should go well."

Dugu Bo looked at Tatsuo and understood the meaning behind that gaze he was going to the end of the road in advance to deal with the Overgod alone.

" Before I was just wondering through the planes with a shallow goal but now I see the light at the end of the tunnel. There are many things happening that I could not see before but I do now. War is Coming. A war that the small scale human battles will never be able to compete with, A war that may end it all."

Tatsuo looked at the faces of his subjects before taking out a picture of his family.

"All I can do is prepare us all for that day, but right now I do not have the power to dictate the outcome. When I finally acquire that power I will become a candidate to sit above it all which the current candidates will not like. Our very existence will be at stake not just our lives if I lose nothing will remain."

Dugu Bo did not understand but seeing the seriousness in his Eminence's gaze his words were caught in his throat.

"Right now I can be considered the Strongest in this plane, I have the strength but I do not have the "Authority" to move on. These laws were set in place by the same person that created it all so I can only follow."

Tatsuo looked in the direction where the Overgod was then took a step forward. With that step, space was folded he crossed the lands and the seas to arrive in the cold of the North. All around him was an endless land of Ice and snow, no life was present except a single Human.

The human turned around to reveal an appearance that could be male or female, the thick fur coat covered any identifying factors of its body. Its eyes peered at Tatsuo who was standing on the ice staring back before the Human waved his hand and a small cabin appeared then gestured for Tatsuo to follow.

Inside the cabin, Tatsuo saw the person was already seated with a pot of tea sitting on the table between them pouring them both a cup they then began to drink the tea at which Tatsuo followed.

"If you did not suddenly appear here I would have thought that you were a regular person. I can feel nothing from you, no redeeming presence nor Spirit power. In all my years this is the first that I have encountered something like this, now I know why you are here and I also know that if you attack it would not take much for you to complete your goal. So instead I have decided to share with you what I know about what lies beyond."

Tatsuo was puzzled from what he knew there shouldn't be any natives that knew about the next Plane as he was the only one that could permit others to move through the planes.

"Of course I have not been there personally but I can "see" what is happening there due to my divine powers. The next realm is a place with many different races with many opposing gods it won't be as easy as this place just be warned."

With that, he waved his hand and everything he created disappeared as the Overgod prepared for battle.
