Baphot was sitting on a chair in a place that looked like a garden... or rather, in a place that looked like a demonic garden.
The grass in the garden was bright crimson in colour and gave off scorching heat, different colored bushes emitting miasma were growing everywhere, and small birds with three or four heads were chirping on the trees. There was a pool of lava in the middle of the garden and many fishes were swimming in it.
Baphot took a sip of the demonic dew and admired the scenery around him.
"The sense of beauty of demons is indeed different from others." A tall man who was sitting in front of Baphot said after taking a look around him. The man had two black horns on his head and his skin was light purple in colour.
"I'll take it as a complint," Baphot said, putting down the cup of demonic dew in his hand and resting his chin on his palm.
"It was a complint," Eldrakar said, looking at Baphot. "So what is the reason for the Demon Monarch inviting here?"
"I don't think I need to explain the reason in detail as I'm sure you already know it."
Eldrakar also took a sip of demonic dew and said after a mont. "Is it because of Shadow Realm?"
Baphot smiled lightly when he heard Eldrakar. "Since you recognised that place in a single glance then I guess the rumours were true."
Eldrakar looked at Baphot with an indifferent look after hearing him and put down the cup. "So, what do you want to talk about? Just to let you know that I am busy preparing for The Tomb Of Ancient so I don't have much ti."
"Chill man, you are not the only one who is busy preparing for Tomb Of The Ancient. I am also busy you know." Baphot said when he heard Eldrakar.
Eldrakar's face remained unchanged even after hearing Baphot and he continued to look at him with the sa explosions.
"Ha," Baphot sighed when he saw Eldrakar's expression and his face also turned indifferent. "What are you planning to do?"
"What do you an?" Eldrakar raised an eyebrow when he heard Baphot.
"Are you kidding ? You know very well what I an." Baphot said with a sneer on his face. "I am talking about the Shadow Realm. What are you planning to do now?"
Hearing Baphot, Eldrakar's eyebrows relaxed and he shook his head. "So that's what you're worried about. I'm not really planning anything. Actually, I have no interest in the Shadow Realm."
Baphot was stunned when he heard Eldrakar because he could tell that he was telling the truth.
"You... You are seriously not interested in Shadow Realm." Just to make sure he was not hearing things Baphot asked once again.
Eldrakar didn't reply to Baphot and just looked at him with the sa expression on his face.
Baphot looked at him for a few seconds before shaking his head. "I am honestly surprised that you are not interested in Shadow Realm. From what I know you were always inter_"
"Listen kid, it's in the past and I'm not interested in it anymore," Eldrakar said and stood up.
Baphot was not angry when Eldrakar called him a kid because he was indeed quite young when compared to Eldrakar.
Eldrakar is also one of the few that Baphot does not want to fight against as his power is no less than that of Eilistraea or Winterclaw.
As Baphot watched Eldrakar leaving many thoughts flashed inside his mind. 'I think it will be interesting.'
Finally, Baphot made a decision and a sly smile appeared on his face.
"Eldrakar, I have a proposition for you. Would you like to hear it before leaving?" Before Eldrakar left, Baphot said to him.
Eldrakar stopped and turned to look at Baphot who was still sitting in the sa spot. He thought for a mont and decided to hear Baphot's proposition.
Seeing Eldrakar was coming back, Baphot smiled inwardly and told him about his proposition after he sat down.
Half an hour later...
"I will let you know when the ti cos," Baphot said, looking at Eldrakar who already turned into a fifty ters long dragon and was about to leave.
"Alright," Eldrakar nodded his head and flapped his wings.
Just before Eldrakar took off, Baphot thought about sothing and couldn't help but ask. "By the way, what were you doing at that place? As far as I know, you rarely leave the Dragon Islands."
Eldrakar's body stiffened when he heard Baphot and a depressed look appeared on his face. Baphot was baffled when he saw the depressed look on Eldrakar's face because for so reason he felt like Eldrakar was on the verge of crying.
"A few days ago that woman ca to Dragon Islands," Eldrakar said while ribbing his head with his claws.
"That woman?" Baphot raised an eyebrow when he heard Eldrakar and a confused look appeared on his face. But soon sothing clicked in his mind and he understood what Eldrakar was talking about.
'When Eilistraea left from here after inquiring a few days ago, she did tell that she was going to play with Dragons' Baphot looked at Eldrakar with sympathy and felt pity for him.
"That woman is a maniac. She just wants to fight 24×7. I was tired of her stupidity and left Dragon Island to take a breather." Eldrakar said in a depressed voice. Suddenly he thought about sothing and looked at Baphot with a serious look on his face. "Make sure that maniac doesn't find out about Shadow Realm."
"Is there is problem?" Baphot asked in confusion when he saw Eldrakar's serious expression.
"You don't know?" Eldrakar was stunned when he heard Baphot.
Baphot felt even more confused when he saw Eldrakar's stunned expression.
Eldrakar shook his head when he saw a confused expression on Baphot's face.
"I'm not sure if it's true or not, but I heard that Eilistraea fought against the Shadow Monarch in the past and in that battle the Shadow Monarch…" Eldrakar said and transford into his human form once again. He brought his hands near his ears and made a cutting gesture. "Did this to her."
Baphot's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he heard Eldrakar and for so reason, he started to feel a bit of respect for Shadow Monarch.
"I don't know what that maniac would do if she found out about Shadow Realm so..." Eldrakar didn't finish his sentence and just looked at Baphot with a serious look.
"Don't worry I will make sure she doesn't find out about this."
Eldrakar nodded his head and turned into a dragon once again. He flapped his wings and disappeared inside the void in an instant.
"I think I now have a solid guess as to how the Shadow Monarch died," Baphot muttered in a low voice after Eldrakar left.
