"Sigh... so she's gone," I muttered out loud as I sat on the empty bed, naked. These past two days had been a crazy ride for and Vena, lost in each other's warmth and love. It was an amazing ti, and I could say with utmost confidence that I knew Vena's body better than anyone in the world.
'This is better, I thought to myself. It was better for Vena to leave without a word, as it would only make it harder for the two of us to say our goodbyes, even if it was not permanent.
'Guess it's ti to get back into the real world! Quickly getting over my sentint, I dressed up in a black suit that complented well. Having readied myself, I left the house, my eyes trailing at the night sky that never changes. The city was always a mix of debauchery and peace, a very complicated mix.
With light steps and my face covered with a black mask, I entered a well-decorated building, and the servants started to lead . Soon, I reached a door which opened for , and I entered inside, soon appearing at the sa eting room for the mbers of the DarkNight. Thirteen of them were spread around the table, everyone gathered here for an important eting.
My eyes trailed through all the ones gathered, each different, powerful people with power at each end of the world.
"You took your sweet ti," the middle-aged demon spoke, his black eyes focusing on with a good-natured smile.
"Must be enjoying with a girl," the lion kin spoke with a smile and gave a nod.
"Well, I have been busy," I responded as I walked to the table, taking a seat at the head, trying to ignore the burning gaze that Ralph was giving .
"Tch... am I invisible?" he suddenly asked, making look at him with a smile.
"Hey, Ralph, how have you been?" I greeted him.
"Hey, Ralph... you're foot!" he burst out, as he literally threw a shoe at that I dodged.
"Hey... hey, let's keep this civil," I said.
"Civil your head!" Another shoe ca flying at , which I dodged.
"Do you know how much pressure we are taking from the War Council!" Ralph shouted, and this ti it was a sock at my face, which once again I dodged.
"Calm down. I know that I caused the pressure, but you I should know better that I wouldn't have done it if it wasn't important for ," I responded, raising my hands, my voice as serious as possible. My words quickly cooled Ralph down, and everyone in the room nodded their heads, agreeing. I didn't gain their full support and brotherhood just by saving them; I had also helped them develop and provide resources and power.
Giving a keen look into the future and helping all of the DarkNight develop, all these people know that I am not one to just flunk out on them.
"So you must have a plan, right?" the Niflin tribe elf, Rai, spoke, to which I nodded my head. The problem here was the fact that the war council, which maintains peace across the world, had called for an all-world eting after the incident at the academy. I had asked the DarkNight to send to the eting.
The thing here was that the eting was supposed to be a day ago. Yes, the ti that I was supposed to be with the most powerful and influential people, I spent that ti having sex with one of the most beautiful and powerful won in the world. Well, if it wasn't for Vena, I wouldn't have done it. Then again, it was Vena.
So, the problem that grew was that the DarkNight didn't send anyone, and without us appearing, it would be hard for the eting to go forth since we are the entire underworld. A lot of pressure ca from the War council for us to attend, and due to , the eting had to be pushed back to today, which irked the council, and they were surely putting pressure on us. Their power was not to be underestimated.
"Don't worry, I know just the thing to keep the War Council in check..." I spoke as my lips ford an evil smile that quickly blood on others' faces when they saw mine.
"I can't wait..." Another mber spoke, seeing my smile, and soon, we dived into the deeper details that needed to be shared.
Everything about the current running of the DarkNight was spoken, after which it was ti for to head out.
"Let's go..." Ralph said as he started to lead the way. It would be the two of us heading for the eting, which will take place in 2 hours. We wore the most expertly designed suits, and on our faces were two masks that completely hid our identities. The DarkNight has their own ancient powered masks, but the ones we are wearing were procured by .
Knowing the War council, one can't be too cautious. Living within them are monsters of the past, heroes hiding under the eyes of normality after gaining the blessing of immortality that lets them live on in the world, protecting it from the prying eyes of evil.
"All set?" Ralph asked, to which I nodded my head. There were currently four of us: Ralph, myself, and two powerful guards at the peak of the Origin Realm. Of course, the DarkNight has its own Imperial guards, but we won't be bringing them out now. After all, this is more of a peaceful eting.
Having done our final checks, we stood in the middle of the room where Ralph took out a strange-looking ticket with several running runes and tattoos. Under our eyes, he tore the entire ticket, which soon sparkled and swirled before turning into a spatial portal, leading the way in.
"After you," I said, pointing my hand toward the portal tunnel.
"Humph... sure," Ralph replied as he entered inside, with soon following him. The four of us were brought into a muddled sense of state, after which we arrived in a vast hall. My senses quickly picked up on the fact that the mana in here was extrely pure, among the best I have felt. Just taking it in was purifying my inner mana tower, not that it can be purified anymore.
"How is it?" Ralph suddenly asked , to which I replied, "Not bad."
"Oh? Then have you been to a place better than this?" A voice called out to my reply, causing to focus on the people in front of . There were three in total: two adults that scread power from their aura, a man, and a woman, while between them stood a teenager that looked to be of 18 or 20.
They held the sign of the War Council in their chest, the two goddesses facing each other.
'Do I need to do so face slapping?' I thought as I looked at the arrogant smirk the handso guy was giving . He had black hair and green eyes and from the power he was giving off, he could be labeled as a great genius in the outside world.
'Origin level 5'. One must know that this is nothing to scoff at or look down upon. The power level of the world goes as follows: the average power of the people attending the Babylon Academy is Origin level 3, going above it at a young age ans that you are a genius among geniuses.
The level of students when they graduate from the academy, the top level would mostly comprise of Origin level 5's. Just because I have overco such a level doesn't an it's easy to reach this power. The growth of power isn't easy within this world.
