Chapter 24: Emergency Meeting



Chapter 24: Emergency Meeting

Year 1206, fifth moon, in the second week, The Heart kingdom got attacked on its border from a fifth grade monster horde, Corrupted Mother Treant.

Not only the Heart kingdom but also few other kingdoms that have borders closer to the monster habitat got attacked by various different fifth grade monsters.

During this week, countless people die defending against the attack of fifth grade monsters. Unlike the Heart kingdom that was lucky to have duke Victory near the border during the attack, the other kingdoms need to defend by themself until their six grade commander arrives.

Sixth grade beings are very rare since evolving into sixth grade is not only challenging but could cost their life if it is failed. Because of this, there are only a few of them.

If the fifth grade's rarity is like having limited edition items, the rarity for sixth grade beings is like winning a lottery.

Because of this all the sixth grade people are very busy and rarely appear on the border unless serious situations arise like this.

However, even after the arriving of sixth grade, the battle didn't end just like that. Unlike the usual monster hordes that keep attacking without regarding their life, all the monster hordes seem to fall back the moment they are overwhelmed by the sixth grade commanders.

From the history of ancient times, there is only one time that monsters show such behaviour. It's the sign of the birth of a sixth grade monster also known as monster overlord.

The monster overlord has the ability to command many other monsters below its grade. Although their intelligence cannot compare to civilian race, they are still pretty smart.

In the past history, the moment a monster overlord is born, more than half of civilization's race habitat could get destroyed. Even few of the seven grade people fall under its might.

Although there is a difference between the seven grade people and sixth grade monsters, the latter has more tenacity and power of destruction in battle.

Now, all the kingdom is aware and prepared to fight against this sixth grade monster. But, before that they need to know what kind of sixth grade monster they fight.

Like all the other kinds of monster, not all sixth grade monsters are war or battle oriented. Since ancient times, there are many records about sixth grade monsters.

Few of sixth grade monsters that are still alive until this day but never leave their territory such as kraken that could only live in the deepest sea.

Avalon, a gigantic monster that only wakes up for a while before sleeping for a hundred years.

Sin Crow, a large crow monster that only lives a few hundred kilometers above the air. and many other territorial sixth grade monsters.

All these sixth grade monsters are always accompanied by dozens of fifth grade monsters. The civilization race hopes that this newborn sixth grade monster is also a territorial monster that will settle down after sometime.

However, they still need to prepare for the worst and maybe kill the sixth grade monster. Because of this, they start to gather around and discuss their next action in the Roundel, the capital city of Elven Race.

The Elven race is famous for their neutrality against all the civilization races. As civilization grows, there is always dispute between one race to another.

Elven races always stay neutral without taking any side and often become intermediate to the dispute. If it is not because of their lack of worldly desire, they may already become the leader of all other races.

Because of this, they become the best place to hold meetings for all the various races. Heart kingdom is one of the strongest kingdoms from the human race and also needs to participate in this meeting.

Although the meeting will begin in a week, the nobles inside the kingdom are on alert. As all of them want to contribute by participating in this important meeting.

But, the spot for the people participating in this meeting is limited. Now, they gather around to plot against each other to convince who will accompany the king during the meeting.

All of these happen in days after the attack from the Corrupted mother treant. While the other noble inside the kingdom is plotting one with the others, Duke victory stands on the wall of the Black Forest Fortress.

His left shoulder is in full bandage from his previous fight. Because of the nature of chaotic mana called miasma, his wound is still not healing yet despite getting treatment from the 4th grade healer.

Miasma wounds will be difficult to heal and often leaves a huge scar for the rest of their life. Especially being wounded by high level monsters such as Corrupted Mother Treant. contemporary romance

Looking at the calm black forest in the far away, The duke could only sighing, "Haaa"

"You are too young to keep signing like that, Brat" Said the dwarf beside him casually.

Although, the general dwarf seems to not be polite with his word, but the duke himself didn't mind it and only laughed at it.

"Hahaha.. Only you could say something like that to me, Borkins." Replied the duke in chuckle.

"Kakaka… If I say you are brat means you are still brat. Just leave the complicated things to me, you are still too green to overthink this stuff." Laughing the Dwarf General.

"Well, that's true considering your age is twice more than me. Still I can't help worrying what if there is another attack. Moreover, my left shoulder is still not healed yet. There is also a call in the capital…." Ramble the Duke.

"Puff… Hahaha… That's so like you, Jacob. You are too kind." Said the general while smoking his pipe.

"Am I too kind?" Doubted the duke.

But, the general didn't answer him while saying, "Don't worry about this side. Rather you should hurry to finish your job in the capital, then back to here.

"Borkins…" [Duke Jacob]

"Shushhh… Leave this to me. While I stand here, I will not let any single one of them pass this fortress." Replied the general in a serious tone.

Looking at the serious headrock general, the duke could only sigh helplessly, "Haa.. Alright, then. I will leave the fortress to you."

"Yeah.. Yeah.. Just go away. Besides, I never like those spoiled brat in the capital. I rather smash these monsters than argue with them." Continue the dwarf general.

"Well, That's so like you. Alright I am off." As the duke summoned his fire dragon before riding it.

"Tch… Show off!! I hope you will fall later." curse the dwarf.

"See ya, Borkins." As the duke flies away.
