130 The Return (1/2)
Down below on the homeworld of the Dragon Empire many can be seen flying through the air coming to and leaving the majestic Capital City that is Lime Leaf.
Within the Emperor's throne room sat a large majority of all the powers in charge of the Dragon Empire, there were Elders from the many clans that climbed to power but no sign of any of the Empresses these fractions got most of their influence from.
Standing up is an Elder who is in charge of Human, Beast relations within the Empire, he has held this position for more than 30 years ever since he was released from the Trial Tower.
Jacob has long since grown into a man many have come to respect and fear.
He is loved by his more than twenty children, two of his daughters are even Empresses having married into the Royal Family at the ages of 14.
He was against the marriages at first as he did not think he was worthy of forgiveness and the favor the Dragon Emperor gave him.
That was until his Wife beat him half to death for trying to ruin their daughters future as Empresses.
After that painful lesson he poured everything into their weddings and happily sent them off.
Later in life he gained a position under Lady Samara to aid in Human and Beast relations within the Empire. He did his best to not let down his Wife and Samara who told him he could do well in the position, today he could smile proudly as he has indeed fulfilled the role.
”Today we have gathered once gain to give reports about the many happenings within and around the Empire.
I will start off this annual meeting with good news.” He said looking around to see many Human and Beast faces within the Council room.
As he continued his speech he talked about how crimes against Beast kind has dropped nearly to zero and that many interspecies marriages and couples can be seen throughout the Empire.
Many loudly voiced their support and encouragement to keep up the good work Jacob was doing. There were some smiles from older generation Beast kin that went through the hardships of trying to be accepted by the majority of Humans they shared this world with.
Next to speak was a young woman many knew to be General Derrick's wife, she walked up and began her report causing many to straighten their backs and focus.
”We the Shadow Unit have captured less rebels and rioters this past year, this shows that control over the masses is going well, most unrest and bad blood has been suppressed these last 50 years.
While some are in hiding they pose little to no threat to the Authority the Empire now holds over the world. We have also welcomed back Prince Leon and he has brought with him good news as well as a few new wives being included into his harem.
Diana, Marry and Trisha Etrish from the hidden power known as the Lighting God Clan have moved into his domain in the South part of the Empire. They will be introduced to many of you if you have not already met with them when the Prince returned.”
After speaking about Leon Layla talked about the many people the Shadow Unit had marked and killed during the past year, causing many of the Council members to feel fear.
They even knew that the Shadow Unit was now under the control of the Evergraze Clan and the Clan wanted to show impressive results as it was under Sunflowers complete control.
As the meeting was progressing smoothly like the past few years many relaxed as report after report was read out by the various departments.
The meeting even had visitors from each of the former major powers that are now apart of the Council that controls this entire Realm.
Nearing the end of the meeting a General appeared to speak about the few areas within the Mortal Realm that have yet to submit to the Dragon Empire, saying they wish to remain independent as well as those that decided that now was the time to reveal their forces for all to see.
For the ones who showed aggression and a want to control the entire Realm they started strong until they left their controlled territory and clashed against the Dragon Empires legions.
Derrick was the Spearhead used against many of the hidden powers as General Three Suns was given total command of all the Empires forces. Three Suns directed Derrick to face off against the many armies the hidden powers possessed.
He also sent out Timothy and Elder Vincent each commanding a Elite unit against powers that were to much for Derrick to confront with the Dragon Empires newly built army of Pathless Gods.
Using this method Three Suns grinded against the Enemy with the newly built Legions using newly made Generals helping them gain the much needed experience that would be needed for future Realm wars Tia told him about.
As well as showing off the overwhelming power of Timothy and the Various True Gods under the Dragon Empires control.
Hearing the war effort was going well against the many hidden forces within the Mortal Realm the former Major powers were overjoyed that they hurriedly joined the Dragon Empire while it was still building up to become the power it is today.
The Blue Stone Guards, Evening Sun, Rising Tide and the Snow Wind Major powers were sitting among the many Elders today within the Dragon Empire's Palace as members of the Council. They had full control of their former territories while the only thing that changed were the laws that they followed.
As well as building massive Teleportation Gates in Major cities and worlds they wished to connect to the Main homeworld of the Dragon Empire as well as the hidden world New Teress.
They happily sent their best descendents to New Teress were they learned many if not a large majority of the Dragon Empires True Gods came from this place. Three Suns and Timothy were the best examples that the Dragon Empire's hidden world New Teress created countless talents.
The Council meeting was nearing its end when a Pathless God, guard rushed into the room and announced Lady Samara's return.
.....
Dragon Empire, Lime Leaf
Within the Thousand Empress Palace thousands cast wondrous glances at the 10 year old Samara sitting on the Emperor's throne.
They knew very well that the guard under the direct control of Lady Eleanor would never mistake one of the Emperor's children for Lady Samara but they could not stop thinking the guard has lost her mind.
Looking at the thousand are so Elders of the Council Samara unleashed her aura crushing them all, forcing many of them to kneel down.
The few who did not kneel were those who she commanded and Elders she favored.
Everyone looked up as Layla and many of the Militaries Generals were still standing while they were forced down, they then watched as that group of people move closer to Samara and knelt down.
Saying in unison the group of Samara's followers spoke.
”Welcome Back!! Empress Samara.”
