969 Leaders of Yrniel.
The big Magic Circle shined, Alaric, Orpheus, and a few other Vampires who were standing near the Magic Circle, waiting for the guest, had small smiles on their faces, especially Alaric, he was going to meet an old friend after an especially long time.
And yes, Orpheus was just smiling because he was forced to, 'Keep a smile on your face! Do not act emotionless when you meet them! Just smile and nod, that will be enough!'
This was the instruction his wife had given him, he couldn't go against it.
Anyways, the intensity of light the Teleportation Circle was radiating in front of them increased, then, a few beings appeared.
"Greetings, Lord Arcturus."
All the Vampires except Alaric bowed their heads.
Alaric glanced at the 2.3 meters tall man in front of him and smiled,
"It has been a while, Arcturus."
"Greetings, Lord Alaric." The people following behind the man named Arcturus bowed their heads as they glanced at Alaric.
Alaric nodded at them.Original content from .
"It has been a while indeed."
Arcturus nodded with a smile on his handsome face.
Arcturus was a handsome man with extremely sharp features, he had red-brown long hair and golden eyes, two red colored Horns on his head, and a fierce, strict face. He had a strong, big build, and his body, which was covered with strong red colored scales gave him a scary air.
Just like other Divine Stage Cultivators, he had no 'Aura' around him, however, he still looked fearsome, much more fearsome than any other beings present here.
Yes, his presence even overpowered Alaric, the Vampire King.
He was Arcturus Blaze, one of the strongest beings in the world, the Dragon Lord who ruled over all the Dragons of the Dragon Continent, the Valley of Dragons.
"Tsk, late again, what did I even expect from a lizard who has nothing but fighting in his head."
Suddenly, a lazy voice was heard.
If it was others, they would have gasped in shock and trembled in fear, however, the people here knew something like this would happen.
The Top beings of the Yrniel were meeting here, it would be anything but peaceful.
Everyone turned towards a 2.1 meter tall, purple-skinned, with only one big eye in the middle of the forehead, he was, Pyrax Burst, the Leader of the One-Eyed Demon State, one of the top five strongest Demon States in the Demon Continent.I think you should take a look at
"Huh? Oi? Is that single eye of yours itching too much? You want me to pull it out?" Arcturus questioned as he glared at Pyrax.
"What? You think we are scared of you?"
Yes, 'we' instead of 'I', Pyrax alone was no match for Arcturus, and he knew it as well, however, right now, he didn't represent his Demon State or the One eyed demons, he represented the entirety of Demon Continent.
And as they knew that, the Leaders of the other 4 States appeared behind Pyrax, showing their support.
The air around the area changed.
The people who accompanied the leaders were horrified. To think the Demons would team up like this.
However, the Dragons were different, rather than being intimidated as they stood against the 5 Strongest Demons in the world, Arcturus just smiled widely and,
"Teaming up huh? Well, I actually prefer it that way, it wouldn't be fun if the match ends in just one punch now would it? Now that all of you have decided to team up, then at the very least, you would be able to hold up for a few more minutes."
"As arrogant as ever I see." Morgrath, the Leader of Devouring Mist Demon, commented. He may not be as tall as others around him, only being 1.7 meters tall, however, he wasn't overpowered by anyone. Rather, his greyish skin and pure white hair gave him an overbearing look. As one of the strongest Demons in the world, he couldn't be underestimated.
"Alright, let's stop this. We are here to celebrate, not to battle." Suddenly, a 2-meter tall man with a lion-like appearance spoke up. He was the City Lord of Ferocious Leon City, Arion Leonheart, a Lion-kin, and the Strongest Beastmen in Yrniel.
"Oh? Arion backing out from a battle? That's new." Suddenly, a woman with an extremely beautiful face commented.
She had long silver hair, crystal blue eyes, thin eyebrows, a small nose, lovely light pink lips, and an amazing figure, her long ears stood out the most and just her eyes were captivating enough to silence most men here.
She was the Strongest Female Cultivator in the world, Queen of Elves, a being who broke through the limits of Elves, and was strong enough to exchange a few moves in front of beings like Alaric and Arcturus.
The Ice Queen, Lyriana Frostwillow, an elf who had mastered the Ice Spells to a level where even the Demons specializing in Ice don't dare to face her.
The air of nobility she radiated was so overpowering that most women who stood here felt inferior. Mind you, none of these women gathered here were weak, a few were even part of the Strongest Divine Stage Cultivators in the world, however, in front of Lyriana, they had no choice but to back down.
"Ah, it was actually you? I thought it was just your statue because of how expressionless your face was this whole time. So the Ice Queen finally decided to speak up? That's rare." Arion retorted as he glanced at Lyriana.
Of course, Lyriana simply ignored him and didn't react to his taunt.
"Now that everyone has gathered, I believe it would be better if we leave this place." She turned towards Alaric and suggested.
"Hahaha! Completely ignoring the poor man! I expected nothing less from the Ice Queen!" A 1.2-meter-tall dwarf laughed out loud. He was Durgan Stonehammer, just like everyone else, he was a Divine Stage Cultivator as well, however, he wasn't nearly strong as any of the people gathered here.
Of course, that didn't matter, neither did it lower his standing here, Durgan was a Master Blacksmith capable of forging 12 Star Artifacts, he was a being who could disrupt the economy of Yrniel if he wanted to.
"Oi, shorty, shut the hell up if you don't want me to kick you away like the ball you are."
