The Conquerors Path

Chapter 444 444-Meeting At The War Council.

”Sigh... so sheʼs gone,” I muttered out loud as I sat on the empty bed, naked. These past two days had been a crazy ride for me and Vena, lost in each otherʼs warmth and love. It was an amazing time, and I could say with utmost confidence that I knew Venaʼs body better than anyone in the world.

ʼThis 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.

ʼGuess itʼs time to get back into the real world! Quickly getting over my sentiment, I dressed up in a black suit that complemented me 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 me. Soon, I reached a door which opened for me, and I entered inside, soon appearing at the same meeting room for the members of the DarkNight. Thirteen of them were spread around the table, everyone gathered here for an important meeting.

My eyes trailed through all the ones gathered, each different, powerful people with power at each end of the world.

”You took your sweet time,” the middle-aged demon spoke, his black eyes focusing on me with a good-natured smile.

”Must be enjoying with a girl,” the lion kin spoke with a smile and gave me 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 me.

”Tch... am I invisible?” he suddenly asked, making me look at him with a smile.

”Hey, Ralph, how have you been?” I greeted him.

”Hey, Ralph... youʼre foot!” he burst out, as he literally threw a shoe at me that I dodged.

”Hey... hey, letʼs keep this civil,” I said.

”Civil your head!” Another shoe came flying at me, which I dodged.

”Do you know how much pressure we are taking from the War Council!” Ralph shouted, and this time 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 wouldnʼt have done it if it wasnʼt important for me,” 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 didnʼt 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 meeting after the incident at the academy. I had asked the DarkNight to send me to the meeting.

The thing here was that the meeting was supposed to be a day ago. Yes, the time that I was supposed to be with the most powerful and influential people, I spent that time having sex with one of the most beautiful and powerful women in the world. Well, if it wasnʼt for Vena, I wouldnʼt have done it. Then again, it was Vena.

So, the problem that grew was that the DarkNight didnʼt send anyone, and without us appearing, it would be hard for the meeting to go forth since we are the entire underworld. A lot of pressure came from the War council for us to attend, and due to me, the meeting 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.

”Donʼt worry, I know just the thing to keep the War Council in check...” I spoke as my lips formed an evil smile that quickly bloomed on othersʼ faces when they saw mine.

”I canʼt wait...” Another member 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 time for me to head out.

”Letʼs go...” Ralph said as he started to lead the way. It would be the two of us heading for the meeting, 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 me.

Knowing the War council, one canʼt 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 wonʼt be bringing them out now. After all, this is more of a peaceful meeting.

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 me 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 extremely 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 me, 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 me to focus on the people in front of me. There were three in total: two adults that screamed 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.

ʼDo I need to do some face slapping?ʼ I thought as I looked at the arrogant smirk the handsome guy was giving me. 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.

ʼOrigin level 5ʼ. 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 means 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 5ʼs. Just because I have overcome such a level doesnʼt mean itʼs easy to reach this power. The growth of power isnʼt easy within this world.
