"Cousin!""Cousin!"
Both parties hugged and patted each other's backs warmly before taking to their seats. Of course Landon acknowledged the other 2 who came with William, teasing them too.
"My, my, my, Clepus, you sure have bulked up since last I saw you. What's your training routine now?"
"Thomas, you mad dog, it's good to see you. How is the family?"
(^_^)
The other 2 smiled, still marveled by how down-to-earth his Majesty Landon was. That is, no matter how many times they see it, they still felt it surreal when knowing his Majesty remembered them.
"Your Majesty, it's thanks to your suggestion back then that I was able to build so much strength."
"Thanks for your concern, your Majesty, they are doing great… My family is more than well."
Landon nodded, gesturing for them to also take their seats. And then, the atmosphere slowly grew spurious as their talks continued. "Barn… A Barn just like us still lurking in the shadows?"
Landon had to admit that the Barns were quite ambitious people in nature. Sometimes this ambition was good, but most of the time, it led to chaos. A Barn came to Arcadina in the hopes of kicking William out for the throne. Isn't this already too ambitious?
What's more, what's this he hears about this strange cousin of his wanting to take his Baymardian throne too?
Landon knew that most of the world, AKA, those from non-treaty signed empires still believed that Baymard got its strength from the supporting UN empires, leading them to cook up fantasies of them one day taking over.
From all indications, this cousin of his probably thinks that after taking Arcadina down, he will be able to take Baymard down too.
Tsk. How naive. If he could, he wished to go capture the bastard right here and now. But sadly, not even he knew what this cousin of his looked like, talk less of where the bastard might be hiding.
And this was exactly the problem because every time his dear cousin makes a move, he is never in the same city or even vicinity where the attack is taking place.
Alright, you might want to leave one enemy scout alive so you can follow the guy back to the bastard, but this is where things still got tricky since his dear cousin didn't have the attitude of contacting those he sent for missions just yet.
And before the time of contact, that scout might meet over a hundred people who could potentially be the cousin he was looking for. That said, do you think he has enough points and ample time to keep warping and spending his sleep time monitoring the scouts ever move like a wandering spirit?
If Caution was a person, Landon felt it would manifest in the form of this mysterious cousin of his.
Like water with its slippery nature, this guy always manages to escape detection.
What was so irking was that this guy has been attacking and pushing back their planes left, right, and center.

"Brother, thanks to your help this time, or Arcadina would have been plagued with a widespread disease that would kill millions!"
William clenched his fists in gratitude when thinking of how horrified he was when getting the news about some strange plague terrifying a few cities out East. To say he wasn't scared would be an understatement. When was the last time such a plague came to Arcadina?
It can be said that ever since the last plague was continued and dealt with over 4 years ago by Baymard, Arcadina has been super plague free with everyone now feeling the era wasn't so scary anymore. Unfortunately, an enemy slipped through the net and was able to bring an infectious plague to his beloved Arcadina.
It was fortunate that the people typically took Baymardian medication to boost up their immune systems, and some have even taken several vaccinations in Baymard too. So although they were infected, a majority did not die like they would have years ago.
Years back, after any plague, many should have died in week 1. But now, that was not the case. For one, the environment was cleaner than before, eliminating potential nesting grounds for bacteria. Two, the medications and overall mindset of the people had changed. They were no longer so helpless, with a majority of poor people slowly becoming middle class. They could now afford medication, and held on longer than usual.
Their fevers were not so life threatening and they pulled through before Baymard's medical squad could arrive on the scene.
Some died, but the situation was far better than anyone expected. And in 3 weeks, the plague was contained and eliminated without fail.
This again made many believe in Baymardian medication, with some rushing to the nearest pharmacies to nut fever elevating drugs for future use and other medications they felt should be essential drugs they have in their medicine cabinets.
Some also planned to head to Baymard sometime before the year ended, to get several vaccinations for their children too.
Say no more! This incident allowed many to see just how ridiculous it was to not get standard everyday medicine at home because you don't need it.
Even vitamin pills for kids are great to have. William was so grateful that Landon was able to keep things under wraps. But in the end, this didn't exactly nip their problems in the butt.
.
"If he can do it once, he can do it again."
"Agreed…" Landon and everyone else nodded.
"What we need to do is locate and apprehend him before he pulls another stunt on us."
"Hmmmm… But where do we start?"
Where do they start their search from?
William found that even he, the Ghostly Prince, was no match for this Phantom cousin of his when it came to being invisible.
Wait! That's it!
Landon's eyes beamed when recalling looking at things from a different angle. "Why must we find information here in Pyno?"
Landon leaned forward thoughtfully. "Think about it. Back then, you were told he was from Veinitta. A Barn from Veinitta."
Although the name Barn was a somewhat common noble last name in Pyno, the same couldn't be said for Veinitta. How many nobles have their last names as Barn over there?
Again, the name Barn couldn't possibly be the last name of any peasant, unless they were present former nobles or came from an ancestral line of former nobles demoted to peasantry. They need to start in Veinitta first, getting all information on all Barns.
They need portraits and names. From there, putting wanted posters up shouldn't be so difficult to do, no?
(^~^)
BAM! William slammed his palm on the table in excitement.
"Let's do it then… Let's bring that bastard into the light where we can all see him as clear as day!"
Great! Great! William pressed his lips together when thinking of Landon's crude but simple and effective plan.
With this, it will only be a matter of time before their dear hidden cousin gets exposed!
