Chapter 230: My Gift for you (1/2)

”Explain”, King Lax'rad said after he sat down.

The representatives of the legions are already sitting in a room inside the Vampire's castle.

Chandelier made of black diamonds decorate the ceiling, long tables covered with a beautiful scarlet tablecloth, and all kinds of meats are present on the table.

It looks like a dining room of the Vampires,

With the number of dishes on the table, added with the red liquid on each of their glasses should indicate somekind of celebration.

But the atmosphere inside the room is not relaxed at all, in fact, it is choking tense.

King Saruth leans his head on his hand playfully before he said, ”The host should explain right, why are you all looking at me”

”But I don't mind you looking at me though, Qinvia”, he added while looking at the succubus.

Hearing this, the woman that Saruth called Qinvia scoffed.

She raises her black steel claws that emits a horrifying aura before she said, ”I'll gauge out your eyes Saruth, I'm here as the queen's representatives so don't think that I won't dare”

King Saruth chuckles lightly, he seems didn't mind getting threatened by Qinvia.

Hearing their quarrel, Queen Nezera coughs to get their attention.

It took about five seconds for the others to avert their glare from Saruth, and when Nezera got their attention she then explained, ”As you all know, we manage to breach the Great Barricade and invade humans' territory”

”But the plan we did is a risky one, so King Saruth here asks the Vampires if we're willing to take the risk together with him so that's why you might see King Saruth and King Solomon meet a couple of times”

Lax'rad is tapping the tables with his boney hands impatiently, ”I want to know how did you, Saruth, manage to awaken the blue demons”

”It's all thanks to Solomon if I may say”, Saruth intervenes.

He then stares at Lax'rad before he takes out a piece of ashy stone that is glowing with intense demonic energy.

Looking at the stone, ”Abaddon Stone, How did you get this?”, the succubus asks.

”We got it from a ruin in our territory, it's not too long ago since we found it which means the world chooses the demon not us”, Nezera replied calmly.

Hearing this, Lax'rad covers his skeleton head in thought.

What Nezera said makes his anger unjust,

For Supernaturals, there are certain items that will help them in achieving a breakthrough or even awakening other Supernatural, but they can't find any of those items until now.

The Abaddon Stone is an essential stone for the demons, and Nezera said that it's found.

This can only mean what she said from the start is true, the world is awakening and they choose demons instead of other Supernatural by birthing the Abaddon Stone first.

While Nezera, Saruth, and Lax'rad are quarreling.

Bertolf and Oddity stay silent from the side, sometimes they glance at each other briefly but none of the others saw it.

Even during Nezera's explanation, both of them don't seem to listen to it.

Lax'rad then finally said, ”Alright I'll believe you for now, so what's the plan for the Strongholds?”

”Before we continue, are any of you have objections to what we did?”, Nezera asks while making eye contact with each of the ones present.

After waiting for a few seconds, Nezera nodded her head after the others didn't object.

She then said, ”Then, here's our plan”

Two hours passed as the meeting ended, the door to the dining room opened as Lax'rad, Qinvia left the room and went to their armies.

Saruth also got out right after them,

When Nezera wanted to go out, she suddenly got pulled to the side by King Oddity and Bertolf who stayed back intentionally.

”Is there a problem gentlemen?”, Nezera asks with a frown.

She saw that both Oddity and Bertolf are gazing at her intently, and she instantly knows that they have something to discuss with her.

King Oddity waves his hand as a barrier blocking the entrance to the dining room.

”I got a question to ask you Nezera”, Bertolf said with a smile.

Hearing this, Nezera looks at him in confusion, ”Then why don't you ask me before? We can discuss your concern during the meeting”

Bertolf smiles exposing his sharp teeth as an answer.

”You don't want the others to know”, Nezera added after realizing their intent.

After Nezera was on the same page as them, King Oddity then asks, ”We know that you tasked Delarosa family in kidnapping a huge amount of humans, and I want to know where they're kept”

”King Baralt wanted a souvenir, so can I look around the stock too?”, Bertolf added with a smirk.

Nezera was pushed to the corner, she's trying to read the two.

She stammers under the two attention as Bertolf said, ”You can't because I can't smell them which means they're not here, Why are you taking them if not for food stock”

”What are you using them for Nezera? or Should we tell the others about this?”, King Oddity added sharply.

Getting pushed the corner, Nezera finally sighs, ”They're not for food stock...”

”Here we are, the best and biggest training ground in the whole Ratmawati City”, Edward said after coming out of the car.

Rex and Kyran came out of the car two, and they saw the place in front of them.

There are two buildings in front of them, one is bigger than the other and just from the looks of them, it is clear that both buildings are designed for different people.

Between both buildings lies a floating blue crystal that emits an immense amount of energy.

There's an inverted pyramid-shaped rock on top of the crystal that is also floating, blue sparks of energy spark a couple of times around the crystal that makes Rex's body rejuvenated, and chains also hover around the blue crystal holding it in place.

It is a magical place, and this is the first time Rex saw this kind of place.

After dropping Adhara in the UWO headquarters, they decided to go here because this is a famous place in sector 2A.

Adhara will be convincing Vargas, and Rex knows it will take time.

That is why they decided to go here,

An Elite training ground for Awakened that is also popular to other sectors and all of the descendants of the 25 Golden Crests spend most of their time here.

Rex looks at the entrance in front of him in awe,

There's a sign on top of the entrance, and it's carved with mana and is filled with energy.

'Crystalline of Mana', that is what the sign said.

”Let's go, we'll see what's the hype is about”, Edward said leading Rex and Kyran.

There is only one road from the entrance leading to the blue floating crystal, and Rex can see many people around him but it's not as crowded as he thought it will be.

In fact, there are only about 20ish people in front of him, which is minuscule for this place.
