Chapter 19 - Demonic Invasion (1/2)
One of the people in the throne room was a powerful Level 38 Master, she was the head of the Gristia Family, one of the most powerful families in Neverwinter.
As she saw the scene, she spoke” Your majesty, we have the fragment of Levistar Emperor's Crown that we got from the Demon Lord we killed in the last war. They had guarded it intensely and put up a huge fight for it.”
”The Demons have opened portals from the Devil Realm to Human Realm near Everheart's region, if we get this in Everheart, there is a chance they might attack them,” said she with a smile.
”That's a good idea, there have been a lot of low-level demons coming after Neverwinter after we picked up that fragment and it seems like they want it badly, very well. Take this fragment with you while you go in the vicinity of the portals to the Devil Realm and then take it towards Everheart and place it there. Make sure no one sees you, no one can find out we did this or we will have a huge civil war in the Human Realm” said the Queen looking at Lady Gristia seriously.
”I will do this task with utmost precaution, your majesty,” said she as she bowed and left the throne room.

It had been a few weeks since he had Marzia and Athena work together against the Captelli family, Celeste had managed to infiltrate the Captelli family and was able to gather a lot of evidence through memory crystals that Glaze provided to them and found out a lot of connections they had to the Kingdom of Neverwinter.
They could be framed as traitorous to the Kingdom and thus they were able to suppress the Prime Minister's side of the family via blackmail and started breaking their connections and decreasing their power and influence.
Glaze was spending his time practicing his magic and skills on the monsters in the surrounding areas of New Heart while looking for people who he could exploit that would help in taking over this Kingdom, he had set up the basic infrastructure, he just needed an opportunity.
As he was going back to his palace after practice he saw Princess Charlotte flying towards him, as she hovered in the air above him she said” There is an emergency, Glaze. You need to come with me, the Demons are preparing to attack Everheart” said she with a tensed expression.
”Alright, let's go,” said Glaze as he held her hand and they both flew towards the King's Castle.
As they landed, Glaze saw a lot of people already gathering around the War Council Room, they were the King, Kingsguard Commander Alesia River who was Level 31, and another guy who he had not seen before who gave off a powerful pressure.
”Lord Lockhart, Princess Charlotte, you are here.” said the King as he welcome us but he was clearly very tensed.
”Nice to meet you, I am Alex Lenorte, Supreme Commander of the Royal Army,” said the man in white shining armor with gold highlights as he put his hand forward.
