Chapter 200: Chapter 198: Awake
After Lewis left the sages place he realized two things and also completed his class quest and beca a three-eyed raven and now was ready to effect all his plans.
"First, I don’t know why but the sage is hiding his na, the system called his na ryon but throughout all of our conversations be never ntioned his na, secondly minglewitch, a movable minglewitch, it was not a place of his legacy but his ho. He also didn’t ntion anything about it."
"What are we going to do from henceforth Lewis-dono" Russ said.
"Well, after getting back to the Euphoria kingdom we will start full scale. It’s a good thing the alliance accepted our petition to withdraw, if they had been persistent we might have had to use force."
"But Lewis-dono, the Azure empire..."
"Yes, I worry about them too, they’ve been awfully silent"
"What will you do if they retaliate ?" Russ asked.
"I’ve been going around making connections, what do you think that was for huh? And besides there’s the mighty penguin, he is even third on the ranking, then there is Ashmir and Quishmir, they are strong to even though they decided not to be registered on the ranking. I can take care of the empire’s retaliating, I just that it will be too much of a drag" Lewis said.
The ship made a loud noise as it reached the harbor of the western empire. Lewis smiled, "well then let the gas begin"
***************
Alot of things changed in the Azure empire with the sudden abdication of the throne to Prince Mirieum, and even though Mirieum was given the throne, his brothers could not agree, so there’s been an internal struggle of power not that the Forgan Empire did not know about this but it was rather the emperor’s personality.
"My lord forgive but there is no better ti to strike them than now" Lord Griswold of Edengreth said. "The princes and the rest have returned, out powers have grown trendously, I was even granted the opportunity to see prince Neza spar with the commander of the silver knight, my lord it was truly remarkable, I advise that we attack the Forgan and put Prince Neza on the frontlines"
"For what?" The emperor asked.
"Huh?... I don’t quite get you sir...?" Lord Griswold began to stutter.
"I said for what reason?"
"W-e-ll, co-nsidering that he is a prince and he is strong, it will be great to show the strength of the princes to the people"
"There’s the crown prince"
"Your High Majesty, forgive
but the crown prince has no combat ability" Duke Filmore said.
"Then what about the second princes, Reka and Reki, why would you skip those ones and straight to Neza, even at that Eztli is the sa age as Neza born from a different mother, you lot did not ntion him, why was it Neza?!" The Emperor’s voice went a little higher.
"Forgive
your high-majesty, we just think that Prince Neza would be the perfect picture for this scenerio" Marquis Jorgan said.
"You all are selfish dimwits" Lord Belmont’s strong voice resonated throughout the hall. "Do you know how many nobles we sent to Mancraa, 109! Do you know how many returned? 64, all of you that just spoke your kids managed to survive, is that why you all paid no attention to homor those that had died, war, affluence is all you seek for. Moreover you all know how much the emperor disgust to prey on the weak, yet you want to do this for your own selfish needs, you all that back prince Neza now have the guts to co out to light because soone sowhere had given you all so foolish courage?... be careful nobles, be careful, nothing ends greed except death."
Silence fell upon the hall as Lord Belmont finished talking. All of them began to hmd and gulped.
"Your high-majesty..." a soft yet influential voice rang out and drew everyone’s attention.
"Duke Erin, speak" the Emperor replied gently to him
"If I may say anything, I would advise that we fortify our stronghold for what is to co, having collected back Pallind we need to make it impenetrable, Gillievia is also not stable enough, we also have our alliance to worry about, with what happened with Gillievia the alliance is beginning to doubt our loyalty to them"
"Why should I care if they doubt?" The Emperor said, with a thick voice. Neza and many other nobles in the hall scoffed silently.
"Because you are the Emperor, the alliance has benefited us more than we have benefited it, yet we abandoned Gillievia when they needed us most"
"What would you have had
do, send my troops, and fall into an obvious trap?"
"Yes... but still be strong enough to turn the tides of the trap"
The Emperor sat up, the hall went silent imdiately.
’Hehehe, now he’s dead’ Lord Griswold and many other nobles that despised Lord Erin said.
"Duke Erin, you want to teach
how to do my job?"
"Your High-majesty, I’m sorry but the Lord of Artek is right"
The Emperor sat back, "Your reason Insharliatzli"
"These kingdoms know the diplomatic strength of our empire, including our millitary strength too but it is no lie that they benefit us with materials we would have had to go length to obtain, white mithril that is used in creating the silver knights armor, what about Flora-gole, which we use for constructing and designing infrastructures, that one is especially a top grade material yet Lili Kingdom has it in abundance and do not with-hold sharing it with us because they believe we should be able to protect them when they need it, and exactly how did we honor that? By sending three silver knight to save Gillievia. Your High-majesty, I am not saying to make your need for the alliance obvious, what I am saying is to atleast honor their loyalty, honoring sothing below you is not a sign of weakness, it’s a sign that shows the greatness of a person and how much that person place values on entities, please think about it father" the crown prince went on one knee and bowed his head, with his hand on his chest.
The whole hall began to admire the prince from what he just did, of course not all of them, the ones that supported Neza just scoffed or looked left and right.
’The crown prince, he might have no combat power but he has wisdom that far supercedes any being I have seen’ Duke Belmont smiled as he looked at Crown Prince Inshar"
After a while the eting was dispersed and every nobles went their way, etings that involved all nobles was always like a banquet, the way each noble would be traveling to their territory with their extravagant carriage, except for so that decided to pit their sons in charge of the territory and stay back at Dwetrem the capital of Forgan Empire. Dwetrem was a city of nobles, full of life, directly under the governorship of the emperor, it was the only place commoners were not discriminated, so as much as nobles loved to live here, commoners also loved to be around here.
After eting with Duke Belmont, Duke Erin and Duke Ravinger the lord of Leceiviester where Duke Erin resides traveled together in the sa carriage.
"If I may ask lord Erin, why do you reside in my territory"
Duke Erin smiles.
"I’ve been wanting to see you for a long ti but you always seem to be busy, which is why I couldn’t miss this opportunity to ask" Duke Ravinger added.
"For -" Duke Erin said, "Leceiviester is like a city of prophecy"
"I understand not what you say but it’s okay. I hear your son is still in the central artic"
"Ah, yes... as I have business there so he’s overseeing them for awhile before he cos"
"I see... Natasha won’t stop running her mouth about him, it’s the first ti I’ve seen her so impressed about soone, when she wasn’t impressed with her brother who even managed to make it to the 10th silver knight position"
"Well my son is quite amazing isn’t he" Duke Erin said as he smiled.
"Well, he sure is, I would one day like to et him, I also hear you have been financing Natasha’s guild, I am so appreciative of your generosity"
Duke Erin smiled again, "no, it’s nothing special. Just a request of my son to help his friend."
"Ah, I see... then they must be close"
"Who knows..." Duke Erin said as he smiled with his eyes closed.
The conversation was not frequent till both of them got to Leceiviester.

Central artic
********************
Rein arrived at the dungeon where he had t Voss who was now Ben and entered, unlike before when he had to battle vampires, he just walked in and opened the door where the boss slept, the old man-looking vampire Devon bowed his head, "you have returned, benefactor"
"Why the hell will you call this swindler benefactor and where the hell is Voss!!"
"Rein friend" Jihi sprouted her spider legs, "should I kill?"
"No Jihi it’s okay, a kid like you shouldn’t be doing the dirty works"
Jihi looked up at Reinard with sparkling eyes as he said these words again, but Reinard was focused on the vampires in front of him. He walked to the coffin and opened it. He closed his eyes eyes placed his hand on the vampire’s body.
{The na of an Ixalan vampire, is the very core of their soul which defines their soul weapon}
{If you na the vampire, it will weaken you greatly as whatever impact it has will be affecting all the vampire under the influence of this one}
{It is like naming over hundreds of vampires at once and they will also evolve under your authority}
"I na you, Milan..."
The vampire’s body imdiately began to change color from its deep Grey color and began to brighten to a normal human skin.
{Naming is incomplete}
{A higher species must have an ancestral na, a bounding na and a common na}
{Weldeert Wimberly Milan has been nad to the vampire}
{Vampire is evolving}
"...I feel... di-" Rein fainted.
