Chapter 34: Monster Lord



Chapter 34: Monster Lord

Inside a luxurious castle room of 'Kingdom Escalante', a meeting was held between the big shots of every Kingdom of the East Continent.

The room was spacious, filled with various antiques of history. In the middle of the room surrounded by various projections of different sizes 'King Cedric' sat on a sofa while wearing a serious expression.

Sitting on his left was Duke Valenza and on his right was Duke Evan.

The silence was broken by a deep voice coming from one of the biggest projections floating inside the room.

"It's what we expected."

The projection showed an old man wearing white clothes, sitting cross-legged on top of a tree. The old man sighed with a complicated expression.

If Vice Principal George saw the old man he would have recognized him immediately. The old man was the Principal of the Royal Academy who left a few months ago without saying anything.

After getting news of the monster's unusual behavior near the borders, the Principal immediately left the Kingdom heading straight toward the Dark forest.

And as everyone feared he found traces of a 'Monster Lord' being born inside the Dark forest.

The Principal sighed and spoke, his voice carried a hint of reluctance.

"The last time a 'Monster Lord' appeared and attacked the humans a whole continent was destroyed. In the end, all the other Continents combined forces to defeat the Monster Lord."

After the Principal confirmed his words a heated discussion broke out inside the room. All the people present inside the projections were kings of different Kingdoms, they all voiced their worries.

If a Monster Lord really appeared, then the East continent which was the nearest to the 'Dark Forest' would be its first target.

And According to history the destruction caused by a 'Monster Lord' wasn't something they could stop with their meager power.

A total of five Kingdoms were present inside the 'East Continent'. And all of them were surrounded by 'Dark forest'.

Among those five Kingdoms, Kingdom Escalante was one of the biggest and also the richest due to its high economy.

Right now the strongest person inside the East Continent was the Principal of the Royal Academy. He was an individual who broke through to (SSS)-Rank a few years ago.

Everyone present inside the room knew that except for the Central Continent which belonged to humans, they couldn't count on any other Continent because in recent years the relationship between humans and other races had worsened.

King Cedric also wore a dark expression after hearing the Principal words but despite that, he spoke with calmness.

"How much time do we have?"

His words were like a thunderstorm as everyone became quiet, waiting for the Principal to answer.

The Principal who was sitting on a tree truck stood up and looked toward the sky with a serious expression.

"Maximum 8 years, but if it decided to attack early maybe even less than 6 years."

Everyone was quiet, it was a situation where they had to use everything they had or else the only thing approaching them was destruction.

King Foraan from 'Kingdom Whiteland' broke the silence and spoke about another pressing matter that was left undiscussed due to the sudden dangerous news.

"Sigh! The gate of 'Tower of Opportunity' are going to be opened soon, we need to start selecting the younger talents so they can become strong enough to fight the incoming doom."

"Now they are our hope."

After King Foraan spoke, from one of the projections a person wearing dark clothes looked at King Cedric and King Foraan before speaking in a serious tone.

"You are right Foraan, I heard two people with (+SSS)-Rank talent have appeared recently. One is studying inside the Royal Academy while the other is being nurtured under Kingdom Whiteland."

"Prince Carcel the second son of King Cedric also awakened (-SSS)-Rank talent. If my daughter wasn't studying in the Royal Academy I would have never found out about this."

Hearing that two people with (+SSS)-Rank talent have appeared inside the neighboring kingdom everyone present gasped with shock. They didn't even know about this news!

King Cedric frowned hearing the dark clothes man's words, he was going to tell everyone about it but due to the recent events, he completely forgot about everything else.

"It's not like I was trying to hide it, I also just found out recently through Vice Principal George that a commoner named 'Alec' awakened (+SSS)-Rank talent. And about Carcel, sigh! What can I do about him he didn't even tell his mother that he had a talent surpassing his brother."

King Foraan nodded his head and also cleared his name with a serious expression.

"The person from my Kingdom who awaken (+SSS)-Rank talent is 'Jian' one of my distant family relatives. It was a surprise for me as well to find out about him."

The discussion topic inside the room changed. Everyone first expressed their shock before expressing happiness. If before the news about 'Monster Lord' they knew that the neighboring Kingdom had someone with (+SSS)-Rank talent, they would have done everything to kill that person or tried to scout him to their sides.

But now the situation was bad. Everyone knew that if they didn't unite, forgot about stealing talents, they wouldn't even be alive to see the next morning sun.

The discussion lasted for a few more hours before the projections started disappearing, leaving behind only a single projection containing the Principal.

The principal looked at King Cedric and spoke with irritation.

"Why did you invite that dark mage, I wanted to hide the news about Alec and Carcel for a while."

"Now everyone knows Sigh."

King Cedric smiled seeing the old man grumbling like a child.

"It's okay, now is not the time to hide. Let's start preparing for the Tower of Opportunity It's going to open soon."

The Principal sighed again before reluctantly nodding his head. The matter of the Tower of Opportunity was of utmost importance, considering the impending doom standing in front of their doors.

The towers were created by the Ancestors of 'Blue Planet' for the younger generation. Every Continent has a similar tower that opens once every 20 years. The number of entries inside the tower were limited that's why each Kingdom could only send 100 individual each.

....

Meanwhile, as usual Kyle entered the classroom with a lazy expression, he walked toward the front seats and sat down.

The seat beside him was empty, it's seem today he was earlier than Nine. Not just Nine even Alec's group wasn't present yet, because there were still fifty minutes left before the class started.

Kyle yawned and put his head on the table, he was going to sleep for a while because waiting for the lecture to start was quite boring, but his sleep was disturbed by a panicked voice.

"Kyle?"

Kyle frowned and looked at Nine who was panting heavily, looking like he just run a marathon. He stood up and hurriedly walked toward Nine.

"Calm down, What happened?"

After calming his breath Nine looked at Kyle with a serious expression.

"I have bad news for you."

Kyle's frown deepened, from the morning he was having a nagging feeling that something bad was going to happen and now hearing Nine words he also panicked a little.

Nine looked at Kyle, hesitating if he should tell him but he knew he had to tell everything because if not Kyle would find out from someone else.
