Chapter 487 Gathering of Leaders
In the grand throne room of the palace, Alex could be seen seated on his throne, with his eyes carrying a contemplative expression, his left hand clenched into a fist, supporting his slightly tilted face, while the index finger of his right hand tapped slowly on the armrest.
There was only the sound of rhythmic tapping ringing in the empty throne room, and it continued for many minutes before a magic circle came alive in front of a crimson throne situated on the floor.
The crimson throne was situated right before the blood-red pillar, both unique pieces of art that stood out even among the other eleven similarly unique clan thrones.
A few moments passed, and Queen Bellatrix appeared, Matriarch of the Vampire clan, a worlds-apart beauty adorned in a flowing crimson gown that draped elegantly over her form. Her crimson hair cascaded down her back, contrasting with her pale white skin, giving her an otherworldly allure, and after a respectful bow as her greeting to Alex, she gracefully took her seat.
Minutes passed before the ForgeFather made his entrance, a hulking Dwarf who was a mountain of refined muscles and thick, rusted brown beard and hair, and after bowing toward Alex with his right hand placed on his chest, he also silently took his seat.
The next to appear was Vuknir, The King of Giants, and the following one was Jones, The patriarch of the Werewolf clan.
The remaining eight clan leaders arrived one after the other, each greeting Alex with respect, with some showing more and others barely any, before silently settling on their seats.
"Elders, you all have my gratitude for your presence here today," Alex said once the undead monarch settled on his seat of authority and all clan leaders had their eyes set on him.
"Ahrimon has started a war, and it will begin after one of his top generals, An embodiment of Sin, makes it to the human continent, and if he is not stopped, a conflict will begin that will not stop until it engulfs the entire world,"
"The outer world needs help to survive the incoming calamity and help that only the Ruling powers of this Domain could offer," Alex said, not explaining the situation because each clan had already received the news, and their leaders were here just to announce solely to declare their support or refusal.
The time on the quest was just the countdown before the tragedy began, which would eventually take away 80% of the inhabitants of the human continent, and it could very well be the Devourer Beast Rampage.
The Devourer Beasts were not a minor threat, but rather, they were a more significant threat than any Demon or human Empire, and just unleashing them would cause the death of millions, and it would take years to clean them completely.
But if the Eldravian Empire made its move and traitors among the Ruling powers pulled strings, then even if united, the Seven powers would be in big trouble.
So, all the points raised by the Dragon King Telarion were valid, but it did not change the fact that a demon invasion was months away, and the Human continent needed help.

(The Demon Continent: The Palace of Envy)
In a dimly lit chamber, tiles of pitch dark covered the floor that reflected the soft ambient light of the moon shining through the windows. At the center of the room, a large bathtub was placed, and inside of it, a female visage could be seen, and by its side, a female in a see-through gown could be seen standing.
"This is what those fools must be thinking,"
"But those fools are a hundred years too young to see through the plans of my King," A pleasing feminine voice sounded, echoing against the backdrop of gently splashing water.
"Master, if none of these scenarios align with the plan, may I inquire about the particular interests of the great King?" A timid female voice, filled with fear, hesitantly asked the question despite her evident nervousness.
"Who uttered they are wrong, but what they will never understand is that no matter whether they come to the Human continent or not, the plan will succeed," "Now, let's enjoy ourselves," Leviathan said, Its voice taking a deeper tone as it stood in the bath, its body undergoing a metamorphosis.
