On the upper floors of the tall and majestic building of the Awakened Association, in the most spacious hall, many influential personalities gathered.
Among them were the leaders of the various Awakened Guilds, accompanied by their deputies.
About ten people from the Federation were present in identical uniforms with the coat of arms of the Federation Council.
The top leadership of the Awakened Association was also represented, including Irina and Samuel.
Since each guest could co with only one escort, Irina could not take Iona with her.
Besides Irina, there were Diamond-ranked Creatures of Light from other Domains among the mbers of the Association, each of whom was surrounded by one of their own people.
But by far the most nurous was the composition of the Domain of Saints. There were three Guardians of Light in it at once, who were accompanied by other Diamond-level Creatures of Light.
In addition to these forces, representatives of influential families of the Federation attended the event.
The Big Seven families, which were also mbers of the Federation Council, stood out in particular. These included the Morgan, Hugh, Orleans, Dalmore, Vale, Loire, and Tarnel families.
In addition to the fact that the mbers of the Big Seven represented the Federation Council, each family sent a representative to represent the interests of the family separately from the Council.
Besides this powerful group, there were other influential families that were not mbers of the Federation Council, but had significant influence. Among them was the Royce family, which owned the largest restaurant business.
And finally, the smallest group among those present are foreigners, guests from other continents.
So of those gathered did not know who they really were, while others realized their true identity as beings from other Elental worlds. Among them were representatives from the World of Water, the World of Fire, the World of Sky and the World of Earth.
When most of the guests had already decided that everyone had gathered, suddenly the door to the hall opened, and a group of people in black robes entered. A gloomy and suspicious atmosphere emanated from them.
There was a mocking smile on the faces of the new guests. They were led by a rather attractive young man with long black hair pulled back in a ponytail. But what attracted him the most was his golden eyes with vertical pupils.
Most of the people present frowned, not recognizing the new guests. They weren't on the guest list, which was worrying.
"A Shadow Syndicate?" soone said, and a wave of surprise and fear swept through the hall.
So trembled with fear, others tried not to look at them. So remained calm, and so even smiled as they looked at the higher-ups of the Awakened Association.
"Wow, how many of you are gathered here!" the guy leading the Shadow Syndicate group said with a smile. "Are you here to discuss who gets what without us? Those who hold the shadow of this continent in their hands?"
Observing the young man's defiant behavior, one of the three Guardians of Light summoned her power to suppress him. In response, the young man with a predatory smile unleashed his might, which was not inferior to the strength of the Guardian.
The hall trembled, the air beca heavy, and the mortals began to suffocate.
"That's enough!" ca a voice that was neither loud nor quiet. He stopped the clash of the two forces, and the tension in the hall subsided.
Everyone turned to the majestic woman with long blonde hair and golden eyes. She was at the head of the Awakened Association group, ahead of the other two Guardians of the Light.
Her beauty was indescribable and attracted everyone's attention. Even surrounded by the other two Guardians of Light, she stood out with her aura and elegance.
"Who would have thought that Lady Serafina herself decided to lead this eting?" the young man said with a smile.
"Behave yourself, Rezkar," — Serafina warned.
"Since Lady Serafina herself wants it that way, then I, Rezkar, will follow her will," the young man replied with a smile and, taking his group, headed for an empty space.
With the appearance of the mbers of the Shadow Syndicate, everyone thought again that this ti everyone had co. But at that mont, an incredible pressure of Soul Force descended, and everyone present felt the approach of sothing powerful.
Even mortals were affected by this force, and everyone turned in that direction.
In the distance, in the sky, they saw a figure with massive flaming wings rapidly approaching, which illuminated the evening sky.
After reaching the edge of the huge square in front of the Association building, the figure descended and landed neatly at the very end of the square, spreading its wings. An attractive young man with fiery red hair and eyes appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The guy slowly adjusted his uniform and then his red hair, which sparkled with flas.
A female figure landed next to him belatedly, which had four massive wings: two of them were made of the elent of Light, and the other two were made of the elent of Darkness.
"The Kingdom," Serafina said, noticing the familiar emblem on the chest of the two figures.
The atmosphere in the hall was even more agitated and whispered than when the Shadow Syndicate group appeared.
Idan was not shy, openly demonstrating his strength.
His bold behavior pleasantly surprised Milena, who followed him.
He even decided to land on the very edge of the square, defiantly announcing his arrival.
He had his usual relaxed smile on his face.
"Look, it looks like they're waiting for us after all," he told Milena.
Milena noticed a lot of stares, so of which even scared her a little. Unlike Idan, she was still only a Golden-ranked being.
However, Idan's confidence helped her stay calm and stay straight and confident.
"That's what you wanted," Idan said, laughing. "A mont of glory. From here to the entrance of that building."
"Well, shall we go?" he asked. After receiving Milena's confident nod with a faint smile, Idan leisurely strode towards the Awakened Association building, making everyone wait for them.
