Chapter 1029: Unexpected Guest


    ... The City of Necropolis was bustling with an unusual amount of activity. Merchants, travelers, and spies from various High ns mingled in the streets, trying to gather as much information as they could before the grand meeting.


    In the heart of the city stood the Grand Colosseum, a massive structure made entirely of ck stone and covered with ancient runes. This was where the meeting of the High n Lords was to take ce. The Colosseum, which usually hosted grand battles between various species for wealth and influence, had been cleared and secured for the grand meeting.


    The Leader of the city that was selected from amongst the citizens had taken extra precautions to ensure the safety and neutrality of the meeting. If even a single thing went wrong and there was a conflict, this entire city could be destroyed. As all the High ns were influential and arrogant, he didn''t want to displease them. He did everything he could to make sure the high ns had no trouble. At the same time he was also praying that the High ns didn''t start fighting against each other. Even if they were to fight, they should have left this city first. Unfortunately, he couldn''t force them out. So he could only pray that nothing like that happened. As soon as he heard that this was going to be the meeting ce, he had been stressed constantly. It was as if he had aged in an instant. There was no one who could understand the kind of stress he was under. Protective wards and formations had been ced around the Colosseum, and guards from all High ns patrolled the area, maintaining the safety. Although all high ns worked together to make sure this ce was safe, it didn''t mean they weren''t suspicious of each other. There was a tense atmosphere between the guards of each High n. The citizens of the city had been nervous throughout the time. Some had even left the city during his time, not wanting to y with their lives. Meanwhile, there were also few who were looking forward to gazing upon the high lords who were like the rulers of this world. Normally, they couldn''t even dream of seeing these people who were like stars shining in the sky. They only heard about their strength and exploits but never saw them. As the sun began to set, the higher ups of the High ns began to arrive. The citizens of the city formed a line to wee the High n Lords. The citizens remained on their knees as they remained in the corner of the path to not obstruct the lords. Some even tried to gaze up to see the people who were arriving. Unfortunately, their mentality was too weak. First to arrive were the Lords of the Monster n, their imposing figures casting long shadows as they walked. Their leader, Lord Drakon, was said to be a true dragon from ancient times. He was a towering figure with dragon scales on his body that shimmered in the fading light, leading the way. His eyes, like molten gold, surveyed the area with a mix of arrogance. Following him was the Lady of the Phoenix n which was also a part of the Monster n. The Monster n was thebined term given to the ns that consisted of the Mythical Monsters. Even though the Lady of Phoenix n wasn''t as strong as Drakon, her strength was still nothing to scoff at. Even more dangerous were her looks that should instantly make people go crazy. However, no one dared to get close to her. Even the strongest monsters could burn to ashes under the effect of her phoenix mes. It was even rumored that until now, she hadn''t been touched by any man. It was even said that the Dragon Lord wanted to marry her, but she had never reciprocated. No one knew how true it was, but they weren''t in a position to talk about this now. The Phoenix Queen''s presence was frightening for many, and her gaze was as piercing as the sharpest de. The men didn''t even dare to look at her, worried that they might lose themselves in her beauty. If they annoyed her with their impure gaze, they could only imagine what kind of nightmare waited for them The Serpent n, the Wolf n, and the Tiger n arrived as well, each bringing their own unique aura. It was clear that the Monster n wasn''t looking down on this event. They had taken it extremely seriously as the leaders of all important factions within the Monster n had arrived. The Lord of the City personally escorted the guests from the Monster n to the Colosseum. Around half an hour had passed since the Monster n entered the Colosseum but the citizens still didn''t stand up from their positions, worried that their ces might be taken by others. They couldn''t give up front row seats to gaze upon the divine beings. After another half an hour passed, the second high n arrived. It was the Demon n. Looking at the people from the Demon n, no one could associate them with the rumors about the demons. The guests of the Demon n were dressed in dark clothes, and their eyes were pitch ck. But other than that, they looked like humans. If anything, they could be said to be more charming than they were scary. The person who was leading the group was said to be the queen of demons. It was hard to even see her face as a strange mist was surrounding her body, making everyone feel like they could die if they ever touched that mist. There was one thing that surprised everyone. Amongst the group of the Demon n, there was one person that didn''t look like a demon. Her eyes were like that of a normal human. Even though she was beautiful, she didn''t feel like someone from the Demon n. She stood out a lot. Many wondered just what was the identity of the woman. She came with the Demon n and was walking next to the other demon n members. The only person who walked ahead of them was the Demon Queen.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
