"You say that the things we accused you are not true, but we have proof in this crystal!" Basil stated as she took out the recording crystal that Adrian gave him.
When Basil took out the recording crystal from her inventory, it suddenly shattered into a thousand pieces. She did not know how that happened because it did not do that when she was practicing. She was flustered for a moment, but she regained her composure as they also have a backup plan.
Adrian clearly saw what happened to the crystal as it was suddenly blasted with a thin beam of light. The thin beam of light was perfectly angled to make sure that it only hit the crystal. The recording crystal immediately shattered to pieces before it could present the material imprinted on it.
"It seems that the thing that you will show us is a fake or broken. Does the Mother of Dragon's have any other evidence for the claims against the angels?" Gabriel stated in a calm and composed manner.
Adrian kind of expected this to happen as he knew that the dark dragon king will not keep his mouth shut. He is not loyal to Adrian anyways which is why he expected the destruction of evidence. It just happened way sooner than what Adrian predicted.
Adrian then started to move as he will need to act fast if Plan B is to take effect. He immediately went near the gates to the Silver City where two angels are stationed to be guarding as of the moment. He will enter once Plan B starts as this will take a sharp turn.
"Since that crystal cannot be replicated easily without the help of the demons, I would need to hold that accusation for a minute. This time it will be personal because this is directly related to me. Do the angels admit to their attempted murder against me!?" Basil stated which shocked the Drakness Tenebrosus to his core.
The Dark Dragon King looked at the angels with bloodlust as he did not expect that they would do something like that when they clearly informed them of her. The angels were explicitly warned to not attack her under any circumstance. If the angels do attack her then they would have to bleed for the wrath of the dragons to subside.
Adrian could feel the sudden drop in the atmosphere of the conversation. He made sure to use all the cards that he has been given and one of those is Basil. She will be the core reason why the dragons will have to move despite the first evidence being destroyed. He made sure that she will have evidence of her supposed attack.
"That is a very heavy accusation, Mother of Dragons. We explicitly told all the angels that you are untouchable. If one has attacked an important person such as yourself then I shall ask for forgiveness." Gabriel stated.
"If you need proof then I shall give you proof." Basil stated as she pulled out a two pairs of angel wings from her inventory.
The anger of the angels could be seen as they treat their wings as beauty given to them by their creator. The fact that someone is sullying their symbol of beauty means that they do not respect the angels. If Gabriel was not keeping his rage inside his mind, then the other angels might have attacked.
"This are the wings of the poor bastard that attacked me while I was training in the north. She did not even try any form of conversation as she suddenly attacked me with spells. Champion Equinox was there to protect me and when we were interrogating her, she said that this was the will of Mikhail or whoever that is." Basil stated.
The reality of the situation is actually an angel was observing them from a distance. Adrian knew that this angel was sent there to spy on Basil, but he made sure that he can benefit from that situation. They did not attack first of course but made sure to badmouth the Goddess of Light while the angel was listening in on them.
The result was what Adrian expected and the angel attacked them when she could no longer bottle up her rage. Adrian smiled like a villain at that point and pulled out the wings of the angel while on the fight. They were about to interrogate her when she made herself explode and the last phrase she said is "For the Will of Mikhail!".
"How should we believe you when you could have attacked her when she was just passing by!" Gabriel shouted as he slipped up a bit but calmed back down.
"You say that I speak lies?! You dare accuse me when you have no proof! I was the victim here of an attack." Basil stated.
"That demon must have polluted your mind and placed a hex on you to make you believe that you were attacked! Any being that trusts that demon is lower than pests for they are foolish enough to believe their sweet words! Do you agree as well, Dark Dragon King Drakness?" Gabriel stated but Adrian could be seen smiling with great glee.
"YOU DARE, WINGED BASTARD!" Drakness shouted as his powerful energy spread out in the area.
Gabriel does not know why Drakness suddenly erupted in anger as they already have a play in mind to brush this issue aside. What Gabriel does not know is the fact that Adrian has the Mark of Tiamat, and he insulted the latter and those that trusted him. Since Adrian has the Mark of Tiamat, he is trusted by the Mother Goddess of the Dragons.
The Mark of Tiamat means full trust to that entity and Gabriel just insulted Adrian and those that trusted him. As such, Gabriel inadvertently called the Goddess Tiamat lower than a pest for trusting Adrian. This was the thing that Adrian needed to happen as a wrath of dragon is difficult to quell.
