Chapter 986 Alea’s Not So Cute Situation

Chapter 986 Alea’s Not So Cute Situation

At the top of the World Tree stood a majestic castle. Inside it, a young elven lady was staring at a tablet screen with furrowed brows.

Sitting inside her study, Alea was really annoyed as she saw the scenes on her tablet. Her pointy ears twitched as per mood.

"Not cute." Alea said as she watched two groups of beastkins fight each other.

Initially it was a brawl, but then it turned into a deathmatch with both parties going at each other's throat.

There was huge damage on both sides, but eventually Tiger Tribe won against Cat Tribe once some reinforcements arrived.

What were these reinforcements? They were mountain trolls of the Lonely Mountains by the borders of Beast and Elven Kingdom.

This was not the first time Alea was watching something like this and things went far deeper than they appeared.

A few decades ago, she had slipped out of the castle to roam around, but stumbled upon a conversation. It was about the situation in Beast Kingdom turning chaotic.

She didn't pay that much heed and walked away. But then, she was attacked by a group of Goblins and Orcs.

This was not a cute situation in her books.

For the first time, Alea had to put in some effort and fight somebody. She could always die and get back to the castle, but there was a pride of being a Princess retained within her, which she didn't want to hurt.

The group of Goblins and Orcs became the first bunch that Alea ended up killing.

When the situation was normal, she found things to be even stranger. Goblins and Orcs never worked together before. They were at odds with each other regarding border and resource situations.

How come they teamed up now?

Once again, this was not a matter that concerned Alea, and she walked away to clear her mood.

Not even a few hours had passed and she was attacked once again by a group of Orcs. She killed them in annoyance, and stormed away, only to be attacked again.

In one week, she was attacked a total of fifty times. It was really hectic.

Not only were there Orcs and Goblins, there were even some Beastkins in the mix along with the Trolls and even some vagrant Elves.

Alea felt the situation was too fishy. She really did not like it.

The cute and blossoming flower that she was started developing thorns due to these guys, and turned into a dark flower momentarily.

Alea began researching the people that had annoyed her, and after many years, she connected the dots and found the problem.

The Beast Kingdom was suffering through a major power struggle for some reason. All of the tribes were divided into two halves. One belonging to Sakaguchi, the ruler of them all, and the other belonging to some unknown mysterious entity.

In this friction, the beastkin started involving the Goblins, Orcs, and Trolls from nearby as well as the Elves.

Upon further exploration, Alea found out that the Goblins and the likes were attacking a lot of Elves that roamed around.

These guys had gotten access to the Beast Kingdom's areas. This led to them getting closer to the Elven Kingdom.

This was an Emperor Rank's aura without a doubt. This was an Alpha Werewolf, someone right under the King.

"Don't even think of escaping!" Another werewolf's aura exploded, which seemed to be Emperor Rank's too.

Following this, everyone let out their aura to pressure the demon in the middle.

There were a total of eight Alphas and the rest of fourteen were Betas, meaning Half Emperors.

This small group was enough to cause major trouble to any given race of the world if the Supremes did not meddle in.

"Haha, the King sure went all out this time. I have to say, it was completely out of my expectations." The demon started laughing and clapping with his white glove-covered hands.

He appeared defenseless, but the Werewolves dared not underestimate him or made a move.

"Well, well, well, you lot sure seem a little angry." Devilishly smiling, the Demon said.

"The audacity to say this when you even had the courage to kill the Crown Prince!"

"I didn't finish him though. My target was Anderson afterall."

"Sssssss!" The Werewolves sucked in a cold breath of air as this damned Demon called the King by his name.

"Before you die, do you wish to tell us which faction you belong to so that we don't soul search your soul?" An Alpha offered.

The Demon began laughing again. While doing so, he took out a small crest from his breast pocket and pinned it to his chest pocket.

The crest had the engravings of a castle, a crimson moon, a scepter, and bats with red eyes.

"WHAT!?" The Werewolves gasped in shock! "The Vampire Royal Clan!?"

The Demon began laughing. He bowed slightly and said curtly, "Allow me to make a formal introduction. This one's a humble servant of the Vampire Royal Family. I am here on orders to kill your King. Well, actually..."

The Demon stood erect and said, "I think I was told to only cause some internal friction so that you guys abstain from the worldly affairs. Hmm... I don't remember properly..."

The Demon put on a pondering expression.

The Werewolves felt the hair on their necks spike up in horror. Their whole body trembled as they realized the gravity of the situation.

If this man really belonged to the Vampire Royal Clan, then it meant...

"Ah, right!" The Demon clasped his hands. "It doesn't matter. I was told I can kill freely. Anyway, allow me to properly introduce myself again."

The Demon smiled once again, this time, it appeared so cold that everyone felt their legs turn into jelly, including the Alphas.

"This humble servant's name is Ruben."

Ruben's eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.

"...and I'll be the reason for you lot's death."
