Chapter 979: Consequences

Chapter 959 959: Consequences

Even the strongest beasts of the Palace felt helpless against the spiritual pressure the King released.

The man who had asked the question immediately went down on his knee, worried that he might have upset the King.

"Your Majesty, my intent wasn't to make you angry or question your decision. It's just that I am too stupid and was unable to understand the wise plan of our Majesty. I didn't mean to imply that the plan was wrong. If it came across as that, I beg for forgiveness."

The King closed his eyes again. Throughout this time, he hadn't spoken anything. As soon as he closed his eyes, the mountain-like pressure disappeared, freeing everyone in this place.

The man who had just raised this question sighed in relief as he wiped the sweat that had formed on his forehead.

He stood up and silently sat on his seat again, not daring to raise any question. No matter what happened, he wasn't going to question the King, even if the enemies destroyed the entire city and were standing right at their door.

"It's not the time yet," the King only let out a few words. "Let it continue. This is for the best."

"The one who is performing this onslaught isn't our true enemy. Our true enemy is the one pulling the strings from above. Even if we defeat this guy, we will face an even stronger attack. That's why I want to prepare to kill the main enemy and not just this one."

The men in the Royal Room wanted to ask just what their King meant, but after seeing what happened the last time someone asked a question, they didn't care.

The King of the Realm of Summons opened his eyes once again. Fortunately, this time there wasn't that pressure. It was as if he was controlling now.

The King known as Deyis ruled over everyone in the realm of Summons. He was an absolute authority in this world, said to be a god here! He was so strong that it was said even if the entire World of Summon joined forces and fought him, they couldn't win.

It wasn't just strength that Deyis possessed. He also possessed the brain. He was also known to be the wisest in the entire Royal Palace. It was said that there was meaning behind each action, even though it wasn't clear at times.

For Lucifer, the numbers mattered. He could either fight the powerful enemies now, but that was less efficient for him. First, he wanted to gather enough score so that he could take his time even when fighting more powerful enemies without much worry.

With time, he kept getting closer to the Royal City.

Deyis observed the confused expressions on everyone's faces. It was clear that they didn't understand a single thing he said.

"Remember the envoys we received a few weeks ago?" he asked.

"Envoys? You mean the ones that said they were from Star something?" One of the Ministers asked. "If I'm not wrong, they wanted us to pledge loyalty to them and join their association as a member world? When we rejected them, they threatened consequences."

"So the ones that are infiltrating the city are from Star Alliance? I thought the man was from the enemies that had taken over one of our cities. Are they from Star Alliance too?"

"No. Those people have nothing to do with the Star Alliance. But the one who infiltrated the city certainly did. He isn't just trying to kill us or take over the city. He's trying to kill as many people as possible as if to show us our place. If I'm not wrong, this city isn't the only place that's being attacked," the King stated, letting out a sigh.

"You mean… All the cities...?" Shocked, all the ministers stood up. "So those bastards are really here to destroy us? Give me permission; I'll wipe them off the face of this world!"

"It doesn't matter. The ones attacking the city should be a soldier of the Star Alliance. In any case, he shouldn't be the highest authority. If we kill one, another one will come."

"Then what shall we do?" The Minister asked, slightly worried. Was this an unending war? Were the enemies really that strong? Were they going to surrender?

"We will destroy them; what else?" Deyis stated as he raised a Sword that was lying next to his throne.

The sword was filled with energy that wasn't from this world. A beautiful gem could also be seen embedded in this sword. It was none other than one of the seven fragments that Lucifer was looking for.

"This Sword is something that we found in the past. And this Sword is what will help us," Deyis explained. "The Sword is already so strong that if we want, we can kill that intruder in a second. But even I'm not sure if this strength is enough to destroy the main enemies that haven't shown themselves."

"As soon as we kill the young man, that hidden enemy should show himself. That's why, before that happens, I want to gain as much strength as possible."

The King's explanation was shocking, but it made some sense for a few people. Still, there was also something that didn't make sense. How was the King gaining strength just by sitting here?

As if Deyis was able to read through their expressions, he answered that question as well.

"This sword from the world of humans is a godly sword of death. Even I didn't know about this in the past, but with time, I found out what was so special about it. Want to know?" he asked.

The Ministers all nodded. "What is it?"

"This Sword gains strength from death," Deyis answered, shocking everyone who heard the statement. The Sword that gained strength from the dead?

"The energy of death condenses in this sword. To be specific, it condenses in the gem that is attached to it. The Gem is what provides the Sword its strength," he further explained.

"So that's why we aren't doing anything? To gain strength, we need to sacrifice our own people?" A Minister asked.

"It's a necessary sacrifice," Deyis answered. "We have no choice. We can either take action now and stop this destruction, only for the main enemy to later kill us first. Or we can sacrifice most of our population to gain strength to face the main enemy. Their sacrifice won't be in vain!"

"If we fight now when we aren't ready, we risk the entire world. But if we wait, we have more chances of success. After we destroy the Star Alliance, I'm sure we can rebuild again. It'll send a signal to all our enemies, ensuring the next thousand years of peace at least!"

A decision to sacrifice millions of their own citizens for strength. That's what Deyis had taken. There were definitely a few in the Royal Court who didn't agree with this decision, but they could also see that it made sense. Moreover, it wasn't as if they could even resist. Even if they tried, it was them who were going to be killed.

In a situation like this, they couldn't afford to doubt their own King. No matter what, they had to always stay by their side.

"It's a wise plan, and the sacrifice is necessary. We have no choice. I agree with Your Majesty."

"That's right. There is no other option. We have no choice! If we want to save our world, we have to sacrifice some lives! But we'll make sure to get revenge! We'll kill all the enemies! We'll take more from them than they took from us!"

One after another, all the Ministers showed their support to their King and sat back in their seats.

The King also placed the Sword on his lap, feeling the Sword getting stronger with time.

Billions of lives on earth had to be sacrificed to make those stones. They were bathed in the energy of death through their creation, and it was the same even now. Even if the death was of a different species, it still made the stones stronger, which in turn made the sword stronger.

The stones drew power from the dead, and the sword that was created by the Warlock Council drew the strength from those Swords.

This sword was the secret weapon of the King of Summoned Beasts, who didn't even consider Lucifer a threat. The main threat he considered was still back on the ship... The old man who was observing the scores of all the students.

Deyis believed that all the people who were attacking his world were one of the strongest Warriors of the Star Alliance. Unfortunately, he didn't even realize that their world was much less important for the Star Alliance.

The Star Alliance didn't even send their main forces to this world. If anything, they had sent students who were just here on an exam. If the Star Alliance had sent even one Captain to destroy this World, it would've been gone by now.

The forces of Star Alliance were more powerful than anyone imagined…
