"We are honored by your return, Your Highness. According to your orders, the meeting room is ready to welcome you." At the time when Yury's Ark and that of the other leaders landed in the large courtyard of the royal castle. Alfonzo, who had recently been promoted to be a wise magus of the royal kingdom, welcomed Yury and the other leaders with a radiant smile while welcoming them with all the respect he could show.
"The trip took us longer than expected. Who would have thought that flying ships from the other kingdoms would also be slower than a turtle on the sand?!" Grumphy announced in a disdainful tone.
"Uhahah, This is an insult to compare our technologies with their brothers, we are a blessed race of heaven unlike them. So don't blame them for falling behind us!" Gramphy confirmed by tapping his twin brother's shoulder with a big arrogant smile.
"Sigh, we don't have time for your stupid dwarf emperors. We have more important things to deal with so keep your unnecessary arrogance as you did when we were in his castle." Yury replied with frustration while escorting her guests to the meeting room. She naturally referred to Alvine Castle.
After a two-minute walk, they arrived in the meeting room of Aralaysha royal Castle. Compared to Alvine's meeting room, this room was four times larger than the latter. "Well, I welcome you to my kingdom. Please make yourself at home. If you don't mind, I would like us to start the meeting without further delay." She was offering by helping everyone settle down.

You may already be aware of the new one, I had already given her my place of sovereignty. But with Sabrina's attitude, it was not a good idea to let her deal with her. But now that things have become so, I can't dismiss her any longer." Quemanded Alice with a sigh while asking Yury for permission to open a dimensional portal to her palace.
"Hm? So the rumors on the continent of demons were true? Like what, do you intend to challenge the heavens to reach the rank of divinity? With all the respect I owe you as sovereign, no one had yet reached the rank of divinity. In addition, do you still want to withdraw to cultivate while we face such crises? I find your idea very unpleasant!" Yury replied by frowning.
"Sigh, think again, I no longer intend to cultivate behind closed doors. I only intend to give up my position to my daughter. Carrying the destiny of the whole kingdom of demons is not good for the brain of this old grandmother." Alice replied nonchalantly. Without further ado, she took out a golden cube that was about the same size as an adult fist wrapped in archaic motifs. "Humph, You don't have to be wary of my actions. I'm going to convene my daughter to take over. Hohoho, I have no other malicious intention towards your kingdom." She said by seeing not only suspicious Yury but also the other emperors/imperator.
'Something is wrong with her. She is too relaxed that she left the castle. Could she prepare something shady? She could be prepared? What is this old vicious woman still sheering?' Yury thought looking at the golden portal that has just been formed by Alice thanks to the divine grade space artifact.
'It's a divine grade space artifact! Where did she get such a treasure?! I have to prepare for any eventuality!' Says Cheera to herself by preparing for the worst!
At the same time, a mature woman dressed graciously in a red dress that fits perfectly with the color of her crimson pupils, she had semi-long white hair up to the neck, two black horns, and a flaky tail that had the same size and length as Ashia's... grew above her forehead and tail. She was not as cute as Yury, nor more beautiful than Cheera or Celestia. But the majestic aura that surrounded her made her more attractive and charming to men!
"It is an honor to be in the presence of my mother and the other sovereigns. I am Sophia Blake, Alilichphar Blasht's daughter. The new ruler of our demonic kingdom." Despite her presentation in a respectful tone, her eyes scrutinized other sovereigns with malice!
"You are really the adopted daughter of this vicious grandmother. I can clearly feel your malevolence just by looking at you nonchalantly. Do not simply destroy the covenant that we have hard-formed. We have common enemies so keep your deadly aura for future battlefields!" Announced Lilias using her natural gift to see through Sofia!
"Hehe, fairies have always had the gift of seeing through souls. That's why I hate them more than anything!" She says in a sarcastic tone. At the same time, two gracious men dressed in strange clothes that seemed to be made with unknown fabrics of premium quality. One was a human who had long hair to his waist while the other looked like a ferocious demon that was more than seven meters long.
Seeing these two mysterious people, who looked at them like mere ants, the whole room became silent as if no soul were living inside.
"Ho? So is it this collection of deadly waste that governs this small planet? They are weaker than I imagined. Sigh, mortals remain only mortals. In short, I am Barthod, and next to me is my brother-in-arms, Grimard, it is the greatest honor for you to be in our presence. At the slightest unpleasant look, at the slightest discontent on your part... I would make you suffer a fate worse than death and we will destroy your kingdoms at the same time and massacre all your insignificant peoples!" As he finished his little speech, a light golden aura rose around his body!
"A divine class!!!" Exclaimed Hades while his whole body trembled with fear! He was not the only one. The presence and threatening aura that emanated from the bodies of his two people were hundreds of times more phenomenal than that of Alvine. Yury and the other five sovereigns were barely able to catch their breaths. After thirty seconds that seemed to be an eternity for them! They suddenly felt lightened!
"Huff! *Koff-Koff* Huff! My lords...what brings you to lands as...sorry as ours?" Grumphy and the others knelt in front of Barthod and Grimard while respectfully asking them! At that moment, they all knew the seriousness of the situation in which they are! And everyone knew that Alice and her adopted daughter who was none other than Sofia Blake had betrayed them!
"I prefer to see you like that. Simple insignificant ants like you do not deserve a market on their legs in our presence! That being said, we have decided to have a little fun in your insignificant quarrels. From that day on, your little kingdoms will serve my mortal ally who helped us a little when we came to this insignificant planet!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"!!!"
"L-Lords Almighty! Please respect the heavenly treatise not to interfere with our insignificant problems! If you do, you will risk attracting the wrath of heaven!" Yury tried to reason with them by invoking the subject of the wrath of heaven!
"Je je je! Can simple ants understand how a divine punishment works? Because of your ignorance, and the favor we owe to this mortal named Sofia, I will spare you life and enlighten your insignificant knowledge a little." Affirmed Grimard by pulling Yury by the hair and throwing her like a plastic ball on the other end of the hall.
"*Cough* *cough* thank you for your clemency, my lord!" Although she was seriously injured, she still made every effort to straighten up in the rubble of the wall and knelt to the ground in front of Grimard while thanking her for not killing her! For her death also means the destruction and annihilation of her kingdom!
"This mortal girl named Sofia had in her possession a very precious object that is coveted by everyone in the immortal kingdom! "The philosopher's stone"! With this stone, we can use our magic, and our divine laws to punish and kill as many people as we want without the slightest fear. And especially with this stone in our possession, our cultivation bases will not be sealed even if we stay here for eternity! Maybe I have to give you a demonstration to convince you!" As Grimard finished his explanation, a crimson spear that could only be used by him on the planet of Alzania because of the thickness and length of the spear! It wasn't all, the spear was a weapon of the divine grade!
"I adjure you Almighty lord, this insignificant being has never suspected your words, which are only the truths that have transcended the tao! I beg you to be lenient to my subjects who have nothing to do with my ignorance and stupidity!" She said, banging her head against the ground until blood flows through the locks from her forehead!
'How can such a stone exist? What did you do Alice?! Now we are condemned for sure! I would never have thought you would be so obsessed with power to the point of condemning the destiny of the whole world for eternity!!" Cheera cursed her as hard as she could internally! She felt like the world was turning upside down. The day before yesterday, she doubted the existence of the deities, but everything had changed when she met Sabrina. And now she had these vile creatures in front of her who only treat them with simple tools and the worst in all this, that they can crush them like simple ants and kill them as they see fit with impunity!
'How can there be so much abyss between a divine rank mage and an emperor rank mage?! I almost lost my life just with a simple push on his part! We really have to ally ourselves with Alvine, maybe Sabrina and the others will be able to defeat them.' Yuer wondered with disbelief while his life lasted only one thread. At that moment, she finally understood why Alvine had decided never to trust them! Now, it was not only to survive against the Valskars but also against two beings who transcended the limits of life and achieved immortality!
