Chapter 22 - Ch.22 The Time of Change(3)

After flying for a while, Baron reached the main base of the Hundred Beast Alliance. Taking a deep breath, he entered the chief's house and sat on the main seat.

His body was covered in blood, both his and his enemy's. Although it couldn't be considered a severe injury, as an Ascension Rank to be damaged by a Transcendent Rank could be called a great insult.

Taking a deep breath, he opened a one-way communicator and commanded all the tribe leaders to return.

"ALL THE TRIBE LEADERS THAT RETURN SHALL ENTER THE CHIEF HOUSE!"

He shouted, and his voice was heard throughout the entire city. After that, he took out a healing potion from storage and drank it.

He closed his eyes as he recovered his Transcendent Aura and energy that he had consumed in battle.

Hours passed by as the tribe's leaders returned with injured bodies. Seeing their leader recovering, they also sat down and started to heal themselves.

Just like that, a day passed. As Baron opened his eyes, looking around, his eyes turned ugly as his face darkened.

Among the ninety or so Transcendent Ranks he had sent, only thirty returned other seats were empty.

This can only mean one thing, they all had died in battle. He released a depressed sigh as he looked toward the ceiling of the chief's house.

He truly underestimated these lords; not only him, but almost all the lower rank creatures in this continent underestimated them.

His eyes turned toward the depressed tribe leaders as the silence in the room thickened.

"We truly underestimated them..."

He spoke slowly as his voice became deeper; no one dared to comment on his words.

"It was a mistake I made as a Leader.."

"A true disgrace in my life.."

One could pick Baron's inner frustration and anger from his voice, then murderous intent started to rise as it pressed down on all the tribe leaders present.

"But Not AGAIN!!"

He roared as his eyes turned red with anger, and his aura fluttered uncontrollably as all the tribes leaders were forced on their knees.

"I shall end them!!"

His last words carried uncontrolled killing intent as his Rank started to climb, from the Ascension(Low) to Ascension(Mid).

Feeling his new power, he didn't lose himself. Looking at the roof of the house, he flew up and blew the roof away.

He could see the rising sun as he looked toward a certain direction. he then bowed his head and put his hands on his chest.

"Oh, Great King."

"I, Baron, chief of the Hundred Beast Alliance near the Eastern Central Forest.."

"Under the command of the Thousand Beast Alliance that controls the region.."

"Ask the Rulers of the Eastern Beast-men Tribe Alliance to command the Thousand Beast Alliance and destroy the cancers that attack this world, the lords."

He spoke with all his power as his voice bloomed like thunder, dark cloud started to cover the sky as he could feel a gaze cast on him.

The gaze of an Earthen King, one of the most majestic figures in the entire continent, having the ability to rule one side.

"Allowed!!"

A majestic and commanding voice spoke as it was heard by all the leaders in the Thousand Beast Alliance.

The Grand Leader of the Thousand Beast Alliance, a Mortal King Rank powerhouse, opened his eyes, looked at the sky, he nodded his head as he got out of seclusion.

"The Thousand Beast Alliance, follow my Command."

His voice boomed as the entire Eastern Central Forest started to move. Such situations were not only seen here but the entire continent.

Driven by an untold force or perhaps fate, the Mortal Kings opened their eyes as they led their troops to suppress the lords.

Although they can't make a move due to Heaven's protection, no one was stopping the Ascension Rank under them from making a move.

...

With the rising sun, Neo opened his eyes, still savoring the dream he had. Looking at his active little brother, he sighed as he got up from bed.

Cleansing himself quickly, he got dressed and exited his room. Walking slowly down the stairs, he walked toward the training area.

He could see Stella's figure training with her sword while wearing her battle armor. Looking at it, suddenly he noticed a patch of red on both of these equipment.

Focusing on the sword, it had cracks filled with blood on the main blade. As for the princess's battle armor, the cracks were spread from the center as they made beautiful stars-like symbols filled with dried blood.

"What's that?"

He questioned himself as he opened the information tab of these items.

Looking at the description and the Unique tag, he couldn't help but raise his eyes. He was most part surprised and some part helpless of the play of fate.

It seems these gifts he had given to Stella will stay with her for life.

"My Dearest Lord?"

Stella had already stopped practicing after sensing Neo's arrival. Neo turned his head up and gave a small smile.

"Well, let's go have breakfast."

Neo said, although he could talk about her equipment, he felt like it wasn't time yet. Plus, there is no reason she doesn't know about this.

"Yes, My dearest Lord."

After they both walked toward the dining room, Neo sat in the head seat, and Stella sat next to him.

Looking at the shop, he bought some good quality food. It's not like he can't cook; it's just that his cooking skills pale in comparison to the food sold in the store.

If Stella focused on cooking, she might be able to surpass this level but she has been too busy extending the territory, and now she will become even more busy.

"Chat"

Neo commanded as the chat window opened up. Ignoring all the discussions that were happening, he opened his friend chat.

-=-=-=-=-=-

Neo: Hey!

Yulan: What, Miss me? Charming smile.gif

Neo: Not really

Yulan: Is that so.. Smiling.gif

Neo: Well, maybe a little.

Yulan: Hump!, I also missed you.

Neo: Yes, yes..

Yulan: So, why did you call?

Yulan: Is it because of the star show last night?

Neo: No, you can ignore that for now.

Yulan: Oh!, Is it related to you?

Neo: Yes.

Yulan: Ok then~

Neo: So I was wondering if you have any dead bodies.

Yulan: That's not a very romantic thing to say~~

Yulan: Though if I had to answer, I have enough bodies to build a small hill.

Neo: I see... Then, can you trade eight magic-related creatures? It would be good if they were in the Transcendent rank when alive.

Yulan: Okie Dokie~

Neo: So, is there anything you want?

Yulan: Not really..

Neo: Have you gotten a Magic Tower?

Yulan: No luck here~

Neo: Well then, I will send you a Magic Tower.

Yulan: What?

Yulan: No need!!

Neo: Take it. After all, how can I take advantage of my wife~

Yulan: Hehe~

Yulan: You must have two of those, correct..

Neo: Yes, so take it.

Yulan: Ok~

-=-=-=-=-=-

Closing the chat window, he looked at Stella, who had finished eating. She felt his gaze as she looked at him.

"Is there anything I can do, My dearest Lord?"

"Well, there are a lot of things you can do, but for now, can you bring the body of the Transcendent Rank Poison Forest Wolf the army had found some days ago?"

Neo said with a smile, as his words contained some hidden meaning. Well, this could be considered bad behavior, but he can only blame the dream he had last night.

"Understood, My dearest Lord."

Stella answered as she stood up. Swiftly walking out of the Lord's Mansion, she looked at the sky. Starry glitter started to rise from her back as a pair of starry wings appeared.

"Ah!, I haven't asked My dearest Lord if he likes these wings."

She muttered to herself as her wings fluttered. Like a rocket, she tore through the air as her figure disappeared in the distant horizon.
