the Order of the Black Eagle
This was the organization about which Alexander had the least amount of information
Simply because he did not have many interactions with the members of this organization
This organization was effective in specific regions of the world and they rarely tried to expand outside their regions
On the contrary, the Mithraites were very aggressive
This is the reason for countless clashes between him and the Mithraites, especially since they were spread out in various countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and southwestern Europe.
They were like a crazy stalker that follows you wherever you go
This is what made him classify this organization as a gathering of crazy yanderes
He always thought that the Mithraists were more dangerous, due to their crazy rituals that enabled them to communicate with supernatural entities.
In addition, he discovered, but very late, that the Mithraists had contact with other worlds, and more specifically that they were communicating with another organization called the Corrupt hermits
Fortunately, due to their primitive methods of communication and the great distance between the worlds, it was impossible for the corrupt hermits to reach to his world
However, the Mithraists were able to obtain a lot of knowledge that enabled them to control large areas of the world during the Age of Chaos
Although those miserable bastards couldn't enjoy this for long, because the Engineer appeared shortly after they took over the world and wiped out all life in that world.
The bottom line is that if Alexander viewed the Mithraists as a group of serial killers, then the Order of the Black Eagle were more like a group of vegetarians working for an organization that protects endangered animals.
However, Alexander did not simply look at them or lower his guard
Because even with the lack of clarity about the goals of that organization, there is still one important question
How were they able to stand up to the Mithraists?
The Mithraists and the Order of the Black Eagle were sworn enemies, the depth of the differences between them became apparent to Alexander on more than one occasion
He knew very well how powerful the Mithraites were, so he was curious as to how the Order of the Black Eagle could withstand those madmen.

Alexander grabbed the notebook that was lying on the bed and examined the silver eagle symbol on its cover
The Order of the Black Eagle used a flag with a black background and a silver eagle with a purple eye
While they were using black-covered notebooks with a piece of silver carved in the shape of an eagle, and a purple gemstone was used that shone with a bloody glow once light was shone on it, and these gems were extracted From a mine located in Eastern Europe.
The eagle's carving was dazzlingly precise
That's for sure
This is the emblem of the Order of the Black Eagle
But...what is this thing doing here?
He decided to discover the contents of this notebook
Alexander opened the notebook to the first page
There were traces of ink indicating that two or three words had been written here, but these words had been erased by moisture or someone had deliberately poured water on them.
Alexander could only shake his head regretfully. These erased words may be the name of the owner of this notebook
He flipped to the next page to find a few simple lines
| Why can't everyone win?
Why am I the only loser while those around me win everything? |
Alexander furrowed his eyebrows
His eyes began to wander over those simple words again
There was a strange and alienating feeling in these lines
These words carried malice and hatred mixed with sadness
This was not able to affect Alexander due to his spiritual strength, but if it were someone else, he would definitely be directly affected by the power emanating from these words
Alexander was able to sense the Vitae energy injected into these words, which was used in a spell that affected the emotions of everyone who read these words.
This is the specialty of the Path of Corruption, who can control others using words and writing
Was there someone from the Path of Corruption within the Order of the Black Eagle?
He started flipping through the pages, hoping to find useful information that would enable him to identify the owner of this notebook
But the notebook was empty
Only the first two pages were written on, while the rest of the notebook was blank
But he noticed that there was a pocket in the back cover of the notebook, and when he examined it, he found a folded piece of paper
Alexander put the notebook aside and sat on the bed while opening the paper
The language used in writing this paper was a language widely spoken in Eastern Europe
The strange thing is that Alexander did not feel that there was a force emanating from this paper that might affect feelings
It was an ordinary paper by all standards
He began reading the contents of the paper quietly
| 25 June 1810
I'm sure it's easy to blame others
It was supposed to be an emergency meeting to discuss what actions we should take after Napoleon Bonaparte lost the war
At first everything was going normally
Or that's what they were trying to show
I felt their tense gazes on me, and I smelled the rotten scent of their fear
There was no point in trying to hide their intentions, as one of them quickly jumped in to accuse me of being the one who put them on the wrong side of the conflict and that I was the one who pushed them to side with Napoleon against the allied European forces.
After thinking about what happened there, I was a fool to think that I should remain calm so as not to destroy the alliance I had spent centuries building.
That meeting confirmed to me that it was only a matter of time until the people I considered my allies would stab me in the back and sell me out as soon as possible.
These scoundrels considered my patience with their transgressions as evidence of weakness
I didn't care much about this at the time because I had the tool that would achieve my goal and I would then be able to leave all these problems behind me, so why would I bother thinking about it?
But then something unexpected happened. Where Thomas Dior betrayed me and ran away with that tool
All my plans have been ruined by that traitor
To make matters worse, those corrupt nobles held a meeting without my permission
How dare they, I am the head of the Order of the Black Eagle
Do they want to turn against me?
I built this organization from scratch
While I was in my heyday, these bastards had not yet been born
I made them
I am the one who raised them to these heights
Is this how these ungrateful people will respond to everything I have done for them?
But I will not stand idly by
Not anymore
My trust in Thomas Dior and Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa was a mistake that I should have tried to take precautions to avoid, and this is what happened in the end.
So I'll be the one to take the first step this time
If they want to betray me, they should prepare to bear all the consequences
I won't be the one to lose here.|
Alexander placed the paper on the bedside table after he finished reading it
There was a dazed look in his eyes
The information that shocked him was the mention of Thomas Dior name in this paper
Is it the same Dior family in this world?
