Level Up Legacy

Chapter 1381: Strongest Fifty-One

"As you can see, there are more dangers than just the calamities or the other races," Sier said with a shaky hand. "Those two could be contained or reasoned with, but this new enemy outnumbers us."

"If the monsters evolve beyond what we know, they would still be weaker than calamities," Arthur reminded him as he sifted through the reports. "And calamities could be defeated."

"Because there are seven of them, and we have only seen five so far," Sier reminded him while raising two fingers. "The two sins, Envy or Sloth, have yet to make themselves known. The people of Alka believe they are in seclusion ever since the Split."

"I can handle the two calamities, but I doubt these are your main concerns," Arthur said as he placed the reports down. "How can I help?"

"The first step would be the peace treaty. I managed to invite the leaders of every nation known to a meeting, but I can't see a good outcome without your presence there."

"That makes me feel like a babysitter," Arthur said with a smile as he placed the reports down. "I don't think that threatening them with force would yield good results. Peace treaties are as fragile as glass."

"I'm not there to threaten them, but to convince them. Your presence there gives the points I raise more urgency," Sier said with a sigh. "I still heard about how the people of Alka view you. It would be obvious, given that half of them saw you in their epiphanies."

"And you want someone that the people of Alka respect to stand beside you," Arthur said with understanding. "But there is one issue."

"And that is?"

"I want to kill the Duke of Fire. You must have heard about him, right?" Arthur asked as he pushed the reports forward toward him. "I cannot sign the peace treaty while planning to kill the duke."

"I heard that the duke is already on bad terms with the crown, but killing him would result in some issues," Sier explained with a frown. "Is there a reason to kill him?"

"He is Diana's father," Arthur replied. "And the main source of her traumatic past." "If that is the case, how about you let her decide what to do with him?" Sier asked with a smile. "I bet she wants to clear things with her father, and she is more than capable of killing him herself."

Arthur was silent and nodded.

"I will be there," Arthur agreed without hesitation. "As for the matter of the monsters, we can begin a public guild that gives incentives for awakeners to hunt them."

"That could cost a fortune," Sier said while rubbing his head. "At the moment, our currencies are worth nothing after the merge of the two worlds. I have been thinking about creating a unified currency throughout the new world."

"As long as you link the value of that currency to something the people desire, then it would work better than you think," Arthur said with a smile. "I can provide anything you desire, like mana stones or artifacts."

"I will rely on you then," Sier said with a smile. "You seem different, Arthur."

"Different how?" asked Arthur with a tilt of his head. Sier did not answer, but his eyes looked at his robes and long hair. "Ah, this."

"You remind me of hermits living in the mountains, and there is a strange sense of serenity around you," Sier said before he frowned. "I just realized that I cannot hear voices of the people around us."

"That would be because of me," Arthur said with a smile as he rose from his seat. "After learning more about wrath, it began disabling abilities of others around me. This will also prove useful in the conference."

Arthur then left, with Sier staring at him with surprise. The door closed after him as Sier let out a sigh. Then, he began hearing the voices again.

"I have the most reliable ally."

Three days later, the conference was held outside Yalenia. In order to ensure that no civilian damages occurred, the conference was held in a neutral zone that had been cleared of monsters. A large dome was built in the past three days to hold the conference. Ř₳ΝỔ𐌱ЕS

The first person to arrive was Lucien Yalen, the king who demanded a ceasefire because of a threat that could end their world. The others began to arrive soon after. The members of the crowd were every ruler, guild master, or influential person.

A big round table was placed in the middle of the conference room. Its walls were lined with runes that allowed voices to travel from one end to the other. Fifty-one chairs were placed around the table, with no one being higher or lower than others.

The table was filled as time went on, until the fifty chairs were occupied. Kings sat beside guild masters and old sages. Lucien had invited everyone that could mobilize a large group of people and had participated in the conflict.

Once the fifty people sat down in their chairs, their retainers stood several feet behind them, forming another and larger circle. Everyone sat in silence, looking at their enemies for any suspicious moves.

"Please allow me to introduce myself," Lucien said as he rose from his seat. "I am one of the two rulers of the Yalveran Union, and this is my sister, Nera Yalen, the other ruler. We rule together as one entity, and I was the one to call this meeting."

The attendees remained silent instead of saying anything rash. Even the hot-headed rulers understood that they were facing the collective might of the world.

"You said it was an emergency, King Lucien," a breathtaking and gorgeous woman wearing white silky clothes and a crown addressed him. "We all know your powers as the greatest seer, so how can we help?"

"You flatter me, Empress Ai," Lucien said with a smile, which faded a moment later. "I gathered you all here to discuss a threat to our world and all races."
