Chapter 1051: An all-female group.
“I don’t like this,” Irene whispered, watching Octavian leave.
“I agree,” Milena nodded. “Sothing’s not right here.”
“There’s almost no ti; we need to decide what to do: send soone or give up on all this?” asked Yulaya.
Irene realized that Yulaya was right. There was less and less ti left, and she had to make a decision.
“Okay, I’ll go myself,” she announced.
Yulaya was surprised, although she had expected sothing like this.
“If Queen Irene is coming, then I will go,” Nayla put aside her fear of the vampire and stepped forward, along with her doppelganger.
“No, I’ll go…” Irene wanted to refuse, but Milena interrupted her.
“No, Irene.”
“I’ll co with you too,” she told Irene. Then, turning to Yulaya, she said, “You stay and temporarily take over the leadership.”
Everyone understood that it would be more correct to leave Irene here and go by themselves, but everyone knew that Irene, having made a decision, would stand her ground and could even force everyone to stay and go alone.
Irene thought for a mont, and then slowly shifted her gaze to Milena.
“Are… are you serious?” she asked softly.
“Of course,” Milena replied without a shadow of doubt.
Yulaya sighed heavily and, crossing her arms over her chest, looked at them both.
“I won’t argue this ti. If you decided to go anyway, Irene, then at least don’t go alone.”
Nayla nodded in agreent.
“Then let’s all go together,” she suggested. “It will be safer this way. Or at least less stupid.”
Irene smiled slightly. She knew it was pointless to argue further. When such stubborn people as Milena and Nayla were around, and especially when Yulaya had already admitted defeat, it was almost impossible to resist.
However, she still had an unpleasant feeling inside.
Too many things seed wrong.
Almost just before the gates opened, a rather large group consisting exclusively of won gathered.
Four people were present from the Kingdom: Irene, Milena, Nayla and her double.
There were five from the Federation, among whom were two heiresses of great families: Celine Orleans, a girl with long blonde hair and green eyes, and Aveline Loire, the owner of soft brown hair and neat facial features.
“Milena, you were previously the heiress of the Orleans family, weren’t you?” asked Nayla in a whisper, looking at Selina with interest.
“She’s my sister,” Milena replied bluntly, glancing at Selina. She added: “We have the sa father, but different mothers.”
“Oh! I see,” Nayla nodded.
Irene, having heard their conversation, looked at Silena and rembered Arabel and Arslan’s words that before Milena beca a Light-Dark Valkyrie, she had long blonde hair and green eyes.
“I’m amazed at their courage to re-enter the gate after what the jealous Dragoness did to them earlier,” Nayla recalled, shuddering at the mory of her previous death.
Nayla’s words further increased Irene’s suspicions.
Four Platinum-ranked won joined in from Creatures from other worlds.
Four of the Creatures of Darkness also joined, among whom were representatives of the Womskinner race.
Irina and another Platinum-ranked woman entered the field from the side of the Creatures of Light.
The Dungeon Gates began to glow, and the whole group, one by one, stepped inside.
Watching the won disappear inside the gate, Octavian turned to the guy who appeared next to him.
“Do you think they’ll succeed?”
“The odds are 50-50,” Cassian replied. “It all depends on whether the Gatekeepers show up in person.”
“They will definitely appear,” Octavian was sure of it.
Without saying another word, everyone opened the first broadcast and eagerly followed the developnt of events, waiting for what was about to happen.

“Stop, Belle,” Idan stopped Arabel, grabbing her by the dragon’s tail and not allowing her to leave.
“Damn it, Dan! I told you not to do this,” Arabel exclaid, blushing, pulling back her tail and hugging him.
“I have a bad feeling about all this, especially considering that it was Octavian who proposed this idea,” Idan expressed his doubt.
“Damn Octavian,” — Arabel said through clenched teeth. “Well, wait, if he dares to co in, I won’t kill him, but I’ll torture him until this damn ordeal is over.”
Thanks to Coco’s live broadcast, they not only saw, but also clearly heard his words. Idan, like Irene, couldn’t help but think that there was a reason for all this.
“But if we send the beasts, then our legend will be questioned…” Arabel said, fighting the urge to go and deal with all these won herself.
“No, we won’t send the beasts,” Idan shook his head. “But we won’t go either.”
With these words, for the first ti, he decided to use one of the four abilities he had gained during the formation of his First Constellation. Specifically, the ability {Madness Echo – Level 3}.
A bloody mist mixed with the energy of madness gushed out from his body and began to take shape. A few seconds later, a replica of him appeared in front of Idan and Arabel with a wide, crazy smile.
Arabel blinked her dragon eyes in amazent, looking from the copy of Idan to his original.
“Madness Echo is the ability to create an unstable doppelganger using the energy of madness,” Idan explained.
“An unstable doppelganger from the energy of madness? But you used blood!” exclaid Arabel, not losing sight of the bloody mist.
“Well, I’ve improved this ability a bit,” — Idan laughed, scratching his head. He was surprised himself that it was possible… no, as if he had done it many tis before.…
“This Doppelganger is not like Ned and his ilk. He doesn’t have the sa freedom of action as they do. Basically, he’s just following my direct orders.” Idan was pleased with his copy.
“Go and et the guests instead of ,” — Idan said, and his Doppelganger nodded and hurried over to the group of won.
At the edge of the forest, the group of won did not disperse, but remained nearby, divided into five subgroups.
Irene had been staring at the Federation group ever since she arrived, noticing their every move. She longed to use her power and read the mories of these girls, especially Celine and Aveline.
However, even if she did, the defensive ti prevented them from attacking each other.
Celine, noticing Irene’s gaze, smiled sweetly. But as soon as she looked at Milena, her smile disappeared, replaced by a frown.
Snorting, Celine turned away.
Milena, anwhile, remained unperturbed.
Before the protective ti ended, all the won noticed his appearance — a vampire hovering over them with huge wings of blood and a wide smile.
Irene was montarily distracted by Idan’s doppelganger and montarily distracted from Selina and the others. When she looked at them again, she saw that they had taken out sothing from their magic bags. After taking a closer look, she realized what it was, and her eyes widened in horror.
Selina noticed her gaze and forced an apologetic smile.
At this ti, inside the Gothic castle, Arabel, who was reading the comnts in the broadcast chat, was suddenly yanked out of her throne and carried away by her husband, breaking a huge window in the process.
“Eh? What’s going on?” blurted Arabel.
“Damn! Damn! Damn!” — instead of answering, Idan did not stop cursing, rushing out of the castle.
He couldn’t believe that the Federation would dare to do such a thing, and that this damned dungeon would allow a real Nuclear Bomb to be brought inside.
And the worst part was that he couldn’t prevent the explosion.
Puzzled, Arabel watched as the Gothic castle was left behind, until a bright flash shone in the distance, montarily blinding her.
