Chapter 2385 His Conjecture
Overwhelmed by his despondency, the divine brigadier overlooked a few key points. Now
that he had some time alone, he realized a few things were off about Dark Emperor.
Nobody knew Dark Emperor’s true identity, but he did. Dark Emperor used to be his junior,
and she loved him. However, that love was unrequited, and the divine brigadier married
Edmund’s mother. Shortly after their marriage, Edmund’s mother passed away in an
accident.
Back then, Dark Emperor used that opening to date the divine brigadier and had his child.
However, when the divine brigadier found out that Dark Emperor was the one who killed
Edmund’s mother, he almost killed her out of rage.
She was only spared because she was pregnant with their child back then. However, the
divine brigadier exiled her and banned her from ever entering Erudia again. If she ever
broke that rule, he would kill her.
Since then, he planted the seed of hatred in Dark Emperor, and she started creating an
organization overseas to bolster her strength. She did all that just so she could come back
to Erudia one day and go toe to toe with The Cardinal Hall. If that came to pass, she could

She would not stop at anything to achieve her goals, and the likes of Zoey were just her
pawns. However, her plan failed, for Levi showed up and wiped her off the face of this
earth.
The divine brigadier knew how deep Dark Emperor’s hatred ran. It was unimaginable, so
he knew she’d scoff at him if she defeated him. But back then, Dark Emperor didn’t even
say a word to him. The first thing ‘she’ did was attack him.
Right after she defeated him, she went away without even saying a word.
That woman’s hatred has been going on for decades. Why didn’t she say anything to me
after she beat me?
Odd. Something’s off. If that’s really her, she would have been ecstatic to have beaten me
in a fair fight. There’s no way she could have stayed that calm. Weird. Something’s not
right with her.
Wait. Can it be that’s not the real Dark Emperor? It could have been someone else who’s
wearing her mask.
Finally, the divine brigadier had a stroke of inspiration. He knew the real Dark Emperor too
well. After all, she was his junior. Vengeance might grant her great power, but it was
destined to be a limited one. It was impossible for her to be the strongest in the world.
In other words, he should have won against her easily.
He was right. The real Dark Emperor would have stood no chance against him. It was the
absolute and undisputed truth.
And there was another thing. Dark Emperor was being more active as of current, and
Sacred Organization was going around as well. That was obviously opposite to what Dark
Emperor used to do.
Aside from that, Dark Emperor’s power level was off the charts. All the organizations had
evaluated Dark Emperor’s strength, and they deduced that she was about on par with
number two and three.
However, Dark Emperor defeated him easily. That was obviously not the kind of power
anyone on the Divine Leaderboard should have.
Something’s wrong. It’s a different person. Dark Emperor is a different person now. That
person I met was a fake one. That’s not Dark Emperor. The top fighter on Divine
Leaderboard is not the same person everyone thinks she is.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhere did she go though, now that her place is taken? Probably the grave. Or maybe
she’s in trouble.
Back when the divine brigadier was out and about, he paid a visit to Sacred Organization’s
headquarters, where Levi was held in the Prison of Darkness.
He saw the prison before, and he knew there was a prisoner inside who was trying to
break free from the cell. But he knew it was impossible as it was bound to be a futile
attempt.
The Prison of Darkness was an invention from Erudia, so he knew just how powerful it was.
Back then, he knew Dark Emperor was on the move. When he went back to Sacred
Organization’s headquarters again, Levi was already gone. The Prison of Darkness was
broken, and the landscape changed, literally. When he saw that, he knew Dark Emperor
was in deep trouble.
Hm, if my guess is right, the fake Dark Emperor is the probably the one who broke the
Prison of Darkness. The real one is probably dead at this point.
Her killer took her mask and impersonated her. So he must be the one who I met earlier.
No wonder he managed to take me down with a single punch. And he probably wasn’t
even using his full force and that was why he managed to break the Prison of Darkness.
The divine brigadier gasped, and he was drenched in sweat.
