Grace could not believe what she was hearing. She looked at the man sitting there in his seat as if what he said was a sure thing. Anger began to build up within her as she slamd her hands off the table. "Are you a fucking idiot!? Do you think I will just allow the human race to die off because you do not want to give up your power!? You do rember why I even started gathering humans, right!? It was for two reasons! One to give all humans a place they could feel safe and secure. And two to try to take back what was once ours. But things have changed since the ti we were ignorant about the world we now live in.
"We can no longer think like we used to. We do not have the weapons or abilities to take out even a single dragonic, never mind fucking thousands of reglios who can beat the dragonic back into a retreat where they have to rely on an enemy to save their own clan. You want to shove the human race into a war we can not win without the help of those who know how this world works!? How fucking stupid are you!?" Grace was beyond pissed. Her face was red with anger. Even the veins in her head were popping out.
Even though he was being yelled at and cursed at, Jay still seed unperturbed. "Your Holiness, I understand that you are angry, but what you say is just the words of another. There is nothing saying that we can not defeat the reglios if we put our human ingenuity into action and co up with a weapon to fight them. Even if we must make a sacrifice, it is better than…."
*Bang!*
The entire table exploded. Grace had had enough. "Jay, say one more word, and I will allow you to et your maker now. When I brought this up, I was not asking your opinions. I was telling you what I was going to do. I will leave it up to those who wish to follow can follow . But I will say this now. If any of you dare try to stop , I will kill you without hesitation. Anyone who dares to get in my way will beco my enemy."
The faces of the n who were sitting in their chairs turned sour. They knew they could not beat Grace. She was always prepared for everything. Even now, they could see a glimr of magic around her body. She had long set up a barrier on herself before entering this room. Jay looked over at one of the other n. Their eyes signaled they understood. The man stood up and bowed to Grace as he said: "Since Your Holiness wishes to do as she pleases I will not get in your way."
With that, he walked out of the room. As soon as he did, he cast wind magic on himself and raced towards Grace's office. They had expected a day like this would co sooner or later. They had long expected Grace's reaction, and they knew her only weakness was a certain demi human. But all of these n agreed that they would not give up their current positions.
Who would so easily give up the power to rule over mankind? They were like gods sitting in their lofty houses, getting the best of everything. How could they return to being simple citizens having to live under another's rule? They were the kings. They were the rulers. They could do as they pleased. If they wished to take a woman as their wife, they could. If they wished to kill soone, they could. It was their right as the rulers to do as they wanted.
The man rushed up to the top floor of the building where Grace's office was located and burst through the door. But what he saw was not exactly what he was expecting. Sitting on a couch in the office was a dragonic. Next to her, sipping tea, was the cat girl who Grace had taken as her wife.
"Is there an issue, nya? Grace is not here right now. She is at a eting." Tobie had been much more forward since becoming Grace's wife. With Grace's help, her confidence grew, and she was now able to speak freely. She would only stay ek around Grace now since Grace seed to like it when she acted that way.
"Yes, her Holiness asked to co and get you. She said she wanted you to et her for lunch." The man replied with a forced smile. He hated having to lower his head to a demi human.
"Sorry, nya. I can't go with you. I am attending to an important guest. One that is not allowed to be left unattended." Tobie replied. She may not know many things, but she could sense the killing intent coming from the man. He was not a good person at all.
"It's fine. I have soone coming here to take care of the guest to make sure she has everything she needs. Let's go before Her Holiness gets mad." The man gestured towards the door. He was doing his best to keep a smile on his face, but he could feel his eyebrow twitching.
"I do not think so, nya." Tobie smiled as she sipped her tea. "I do not take orders from those I do not know. As my wife is the leader of this city, I only take orders from her. You are soone I have never t, so why would I follow you when you clearly have other plans?"
"You! Just co with now!" The man got pissed and went to walk forward…
*Clang!*
The dragonic girl who had been sitting there put her cup down on the table. "I think you need to stop before you get hurt, human. My Lord has asked to ensure the safety of the people who wish to evacuate. If you even so much as dare take another step forward, it will be a declaration of war against Destiny City."
