Chapter 566 King Seidel
In the blink of an eye, another 10 days had passed since Vicente's encounter with the 3rd stage vampire in the Chutha Dynasty's east-central region.
As he traveled with Layla and Casey to the northwest of the dynasty, a concern from Vicente's allies had reached the royal throne hall of the Seidel Kingdom!
...
In the royal throne hall of the Seidel Kingdom, a brown-haired man with a beard and mustache of the same color sat in the most important position in the state, dressed in the royal robes and crown of the local leader.
Next to him were two people. One was a mature-looking and very well-behaved woman dressed all in black, the king's right-hand woman. The other was an elderly-looking man dressed in armor bearing the symbol of the royal family, with his arms behind his back and a sword at his waist.
There were ten steps in front of them, from which they could see the entire throne hall, where royal guards from the highest ranks of the army were in position, and a group of three people stood in the middle of the area, knees bent as they went about official business.
"Your Majesty, this humble fellow is here to ask for your help. Given the current situation in the Mysterious Wilderness, I cannot fulfill my responsibilities. Therefore, I'm here to request 10 royal guard members." One of the people there said while looking at the ground, not daring to look at the king even though he was a Count of the Seidel Kingdom.
This man and his two companions were only Mages. Apart from them, no one from the 3rd stage was in this hall!
There even was someone there who was already at the 5th stage, a man hiding among the royal guards!
King Seidel, Ethan Seidel, a Sky Sovereign, heard this and didn't find it challenging to understand this guy's situation. "I'll send 6 royal guards to your territory, Chase. They'll handle the situation in your area and return to the capital. That should be enough."
Count Chase smiled when he heard this, satisfied with the number of guards that would return to his territory at his side.
The royal guards were no mere army soldiers. They were the most prestigious members of the king's forces, and they were all Sovereigns!
The king frowned. "Yes, but what does the anniversary of the human victory in the war against magical beings have to do with it?"
"The Purification." That was all the Paragon said, but it was enough to alert the three to something deeply complex about the monsters in the north of the continent.
"Are you serious?" The old man in armor to the king's left stepped forward, sweat dripping from his brow. "Are those monsters really willing to do this?"
"Demonix is willing to do anything."
The woman and the old man looked at the king, a little pale at hearing the name of the most important vampire clan on the continent.
"Your Majesty..."
"If vampires are behind this, we can't doubt it." The king commented as he swallowed his saliva. "We must prepare for the worst.
"Your Excellency, how much time do we have?"
The Paragon looked at the king and narrowed his eyes, seeing images of hourglasses forming behind the three people. "Not long enough. If you want to prepare, you have until the Seven-
Day Tsunami. If what's happening is connected to the vampires' plans, that's the maximum time before they act."
"Shit!" The king cursed as he rose from his throne, somewhat worried about the future.
"You two, run and prepare our army. Raise the threat level to the state and free resources from our reserve for the most talented soldiers." He ordered, not taking lightly what might happen to the state if The Purification was actually behind these reports of monsters in his state.
The Purification referred to a great sacrifice ordered by the vampires, something that, according to the legends, would bring hell to the Polaris Realm and would be the beginning of a new era for the continent. In particular, it would be the end of human dominance!
