"I-It\'s the ExceedoGenesis,
They released an official statement!"
The servant spoke with a panicked look on his face.
Hearing his words, a frown appeared on Ignatia\'s face, she didn\'t like where this was going, she had barely gotten Arcturus to hold in his anger, now, however, her intuition was telling her that something bad was going to happen.
"What did they say?"
And just as she expected, Arcturus questioned, there was an eerie calmness in his voice, and as a person who had been with her for thousands of years, Ignatia could tell that this calmness was nothing but silence before the carnage.
"I asked, what was their official statement." Seeing the servant still hadn\'t answered and was only gulping, Arcturus questioned again, this time, his tone was much heavier than before.
"T-They said that th-"
Before the servant could read out the statement written in his report, Arcturus waved his hand, the report in the Servant\'s hand moved on its own and ended up in Arcturus\'s hands and he started reading it himself.
\'It has come to our attention that Yrniel has gone through substantial changes in these past 150 years we have been in closed-door cultivation and have been disconnected from worldly affairs. However, the recent events have revealed a troubling reality. Unbeknownst to us, the situation has deteriorated to such an extent that even the revered Dragon Lord, sovereign of the Valley of Dragons and widely esteemed throughout Yrniel, sanctioned the stealthy abduction of one of our Clan members. Were it not for the timely intervention of our ally, the consequences could have been dire.
It is imperative to acknowledge that the ExceedoGenesis shall not overlook this transgression. Irrespective of the Dragon Lord\'s considerable power and influence, their decision to orchestrate harm upon us due to a minor disagreement warrants a resolute response from our part.
Therefore, we, the ExceedoGenesis, unequivocally announce that henceforth:
The ExceedoGenesis shall consider all Dragons aligned with the Dragon Lord, Arcturus Blaze, as enemies and this announcement marks the initiation of hostilities between the ExceedoGenesis and the Dragon Continent.\'
The message was loud and clear and Ignatia, who was standing right beside Arcturus, reading the report, had a solemn look on her face.
This was bad.
It was no different than the ExceedoGenesis publicly declaring War on them.
Of course, Ignatia was not scared of a small clan whose strongest member was only a Semi Saint. If she was being honest, as impressive as that boy Nux and his little wives were, just a few of their subordinates were enough to completely wipe out their entire Clan.
This problem, however, wasn\'t something that could be solved by wiping the Clan away. ExceedoGenesis may be weak, however, the clan had one remarkable ability that made it different from other Clans.
It was their ability to create allies, strong allies. Without even mentioning Lady Vyriana, the biggest backer the Clan has, just the fact that one of the members of the clan was Melia Bloodheart, the daughter of the Bloodheart Duke House and the niece of the Vampire King made things much more complex.
The Dragons and Vampires have been allies for tens of thousands of years, this relationship has been formed over generations, however, this didn\'t mean that the Vampire King would simply remain silent if they killed his niece. Not when Ambrosia Bloodheart, the mother of Melia Bloodheart and the Sister of the Vampire King had so much influence on her Brother and the entire Blood Kingdom.
This could very well sour the long-standing relationship between the two races and lead to something much worse than what it should have been. Especially since the ones in the wrong were... them.
Beep Beep Beep
And just as Ignatia expected, while the two of them were still taking in the bold statement released by a particularly weak clan, Arctusus\'s storage ring started vibrating.
The Dragon Lord glanced at his wife, Ignatia nodded and Arcturus took out the Call Artifact that was shining continuously.
It was a call from a close friend.
Alaric Sky.
Not having any other option, Arcturus picked the call and without any formal or informal greetings, a single question was heard,
[Is it true?]
"What are you talking about?" Arcturus tried to play ignorant.
[I am asking whether what the ExceedoGenesis said is true or not. Did you truly try to abduct one of their Clan members because he didn\'t tell you what you wanted to hear in the matter regarding the Devil?]
"He lied."
Arcturus replied.
[Are you saying that their statement is a lie?] "No, I am saying that he lied about the Devil training with Lady Vyriana, however, the Devil was in ExceedoGenesis, he was the one who stopped by men.
Nux Leander lied to us, the Devil was with him this entire time, he was simply hiding him." Arcturus told how Nux was lying, Alaric, however, was only focused on one thing,
[The fact that you know that the Devil was hiding in ExceedoGenesis proves that what they were saying is the truth.
You actually did send your subordinates to abduct one of their members and since that man has gone as far as declaring war against you, the person you tried to abduct must be his wife...]
Alaric knew perfectly well what kind of person Arcturus was, he had his doubts when Nux and Arcturus were having a verbal conflict, but to think the Dragon would actually act upon it.
[Why did you do it?]
Alaric questioned.
"Didn\'t you hear what I said!? He was helping the Devil hide!" Arcturus shouted.
[You didn\'t know that until you sent your subordinates, don\'t try to cover it up, Arcturus. You did what you did regardless of whether he was hiding the Devil or not. Do not treat me like a fool.]
"I didn\'t plan to harm anyone, I only wanted to abduct his wife to threaten him into telling me the whereabouts of that Demon and some information regarding him that I can use to get to him."
Arcturus revealed his intentions.
[...]
Alaric didn\'t know what to say.
"But I had known that he was hiding that bastard all along, then rather than trying to sneak in and abduct one of his wives, I would have ordered my men to raze the entire clan to dust, together with that Devil," Arcturus spoke in a voice filled with endless anger.
[Arcturus Blaze, do not blame me if your actions ruin the long-standing relationship between our races.]
