Chapter 1947: That’s Just His Wishful Thinking
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The city lord’s castle was already under a curfew. The three surrounding streets were all under a lockdown in preparation for the peace meeting.
The representatives arrived one by one.
The elven delegation with Helena as the leader was the first delegation to arrive today.
The next delegation to arrive was the forest troll delegation. They elected a new leader after Bruno was killed, and kept a much lower profile.
Auster arrived at Chaos City with all his 10th-tier powerhouses. He was obviously scared by Alex.
All the top 10 dragon tribes sent representatives to take part in the peace meeting. Although Louis and Douglas had joined the peace alliance on behalf of the giant dragons, the two of them couldn’t represent the interests of all the giant dragon tribes at an occasion like the peace meeting.
The situation was also similar with the demons. After the Abyss Demons and the Flaming Demons were engaged in a war, the internal conflict became very severe. Those pro-war factions that had an advantage were also embroiled in the internal conflict. There was no trust between them, so all the top 10 demon tribes sent representatives to the peace meeting. There were even some smaller demon tribes forming alliances, and sending representatives to the peace meeting.
The Roth Empire’s delegation was the last to arrive. At the same time, they were also the biggest delegation.
The delegation with Andre Edward in the lead had more than 50 people. Apart from some civil officials, there was also the 10th-tier powerhouses’ bodyguard team with Richard, the Magus Tower’s president, and Dominic, the military’s grand marshal.
“Andre really treasures his life. He brought over 10 10th-tier powerhouses with him. Together with the six 10th-tier powerhouses protecting Sean, there are 16 of them.” Michael chuckled when he heard the report.
Rolan shook his head, and said, “Perhaps it’s to flex his muscles. Bringing 16 10th-tier powerhouses out as bodyguards is impossible for any other races.”
“No matter what, it’s a good thing for us since Andre appears here today to take part in the peace meeting.” Michael stopped smiling, and looked grave. “I should go and meet them now. This peace meeting is definitely not going to be peaceful.”
Before Michael could leave, Dicus came striding in a hurry. Panicking, he said to Michael, “My lord, the Abyss Demon representative and the Flaming Demon representative are fighting outside the city lord’s castle right now. Do you want to break up the fight?”
“Isn’t this too much?” Michael frowned. He didn’t expect the enmity of the two tribes to be so severe that they could fight before the peace meeting. “Let’s go and check it out.”
Mag and Irina gauged the time, and happened to see a rather fierce fight when they arrived at the city lord’s castle.
One party was an abyss demon riding on a big pig, while the other party was a flaming demon on fire.
The wild boar smashed the stone tiles, and the flames melted them. They were having a very fierce fight in front of the city lord’s castle.
The other representatives who had just arrived were all watching a good show. The probability of such an incident happening on such an event was extremely low, so why not watch a fun drama before the start of a nerve-racking meeting.
“Use some strength. Don’t fight like a girl!” Mag saw Camilla and her uncle Dracula watching the fight in the crowd.
His gaze went over the crowd, and landed on a group of people that was about to enter. The person in the lead was a dignified middle-aged man, who was the king of the Roth Empire, Andre.
The 10th-tier powerhouse bodyguard team surrounding him with Richard and Dominic in charge actually had as many as 10 people.
These 10 powerhouses were not in the same level as those six around Sean. They were the most powerful 10th-tier powerhouses in the Roth Empire.
As if he had gotten a reminder, Andre halted his footsteps, and turned to look at Mag. He gave Mag a meaningful smile.
Mag furrowed his brows. He couldn’t pinpoint the feeling that Andre gave him. He felt just like a wily old fox.
Andre entered the city lord’s castle. Dominic gave Mag a complex glance before going into the city lord’s castle too.
This grand marshal was a powerful and chivalrous elder and leader in Alex’s memory.
When Alex began to get famous at the northwestern border, this grand marshal had met and taught him many times.
The Roth Empire’s cavalry had been increasingly stronger under Dominic’s leadership for the past 20 years.
He had intended for Alex to take over from him, and be the empire’s next grand marshal in the past. He even wanted to transfer Alex over and groom him personally.
However, Alex rejected that. He quit his military position, and began to roam around the continent to build up his power.
Why did Andre make Dominic come to the peace meeting with him at such a critical period? His deterrent effect was way stronger in the Roth Empire’s army than being here.
Moreover, Andre wasn’t short of a 10th-tier bodyguard. Even Mag wasn’t confident that he could kill Andre under the protection of 15 10th-tier powerhouses.
“I’m afraid Andre has not given up on you,” Irina whispered.
“That’s just his wishful thinking.” Mag pursed his lips.
“Stop! Stop, stop, stop!”
At this moment, Michael came out, and yelled in a grave voice.
However, the abyss demon and the flaming demon who were in the heat of the fight ignored him, and continued to fight.
Michael frowned, and pulled his longsword. He threw the longsword out in the instant the two of them briefly separated.
Dang!
The longsword was embedded in the middle of them glaringly.
That abyss demon and the flaming demon halted their advance at the same time, and looked at Michael instinctively.
Michael severely said to the two demons, “Gentlemen, this is Chaos City, and we are having the peace meeting today. If both of you have any issues that need to be settled, please settle it after you leave Chaos City or after the peace meeting!”
“Hmph!”
The two demons looked at each other, and huffed unconvincingly, but the two of them stopped fighting.
Due to the demons’ internal conflict, both of them had to take part in today’s peace meeting to fight for their respective tribes’ benefits and interests. They had plenty of time after the meeting.
“The meeting hall is already open. All of you can proceed inside. The peace meeting will commence soon,” Michael said to the other representatives watching the fight next.
“Irina, you guys are here too?” Dracula saw Mag and Irina, and approached them with a smile. Then, he sized up Mag, and commented, “I thought I could tower over him after I became an Ancestor. I didn’t expect this chap to be so perverted that he simply killed Bruno.. He cannot even be considered as human.”
