Chapter 346 Meeting Room.
Just after crossing the portal, she found herself floating in another space-time with a giant island in front of her as her only companion.
But although she was far from the island, she could see a gigantic tree whose shadow covered the entire fantasy island because of its size and thick leaves.
\'Sigh, a blessing or a curse for us? We will soon find out.\' She whispered these words to herself, bowing respectfully to the giant tree before continuing her journey to the island.
-Wssshhh...
...
..
.
After three more minutes, she arrived at the foot of the island, which was even more significant than the entire Alzania planet itself.
But strangely, the island had no guards against intruders. Instead, there was a small mansion a little larger than Linn\'s small mansion on its meteorite and which had only two strange guards, one with two pointed red horns while the other was a woman with long vermillion hair and scarlet eyes.
"It\'s a pleasure to see you, Milady Sabrina." The two guards bowed to Sabrina while giving her their respects.
"Hehe, no matter how much time passes, you are still as beautiful as rumors say, Lady Yukina." She said, patting the fairy-looking girl\'s head with two huge cups H that her clothes could barely bear their weight.
"Fufu~ unlike me, you\'re more beautiful, even in this form, not to mention your primordial form. For goddess\'s sake, stop insulting me." Yukina responds while nobly covering her mouth while she laughs with glamour.
"Sigh, it was not insulting; I sincerely think so. Your nobility is unparalleled, even compared to this boring girl (Linn)." She commented, even though she knew that Yukina didn\'t really think about what she had just said.
Following this brief conversation with Yukina, she focused on the man with a ferocious appearance and his horns strangely sharper than those of Balakh, the red dragon that Linn had decided to take with her for a mission he no longer carried out.
"Elder Gargantua, even if I know that this old man really didn\'t think about what he was telling me earlier, don\'t you think he\'s doing a little too much? Why should I address this vicious bastard with honorary titles?" She asked, looking Gargantua straight in the eyes.
"... Sigh, as you have just said, he is only doing his duty. But pay attention to your words; this is only my humble advice. Milord Zenof is anything but lenient. So understand that--
"Sigh, I know all that. Anyway, delighted to see you again too." She arrested Gargantua, who intended to defend the first guard before he finished his remarks.
"What about your descendants? Did they also come there like the last time?" She then asked.
"Sigh, unfortunately, yes. Even if the three current queens of our three races of ancient beasts are still inexperienced, I hope they ensure, as last time." Gargantua whispered these words with an ironic smile.
"... Sorry for you, but I promise all this will end soon." She then tapped Gargantua\'s shoulder, about 350cm tall, standing on the tips of her toes.
"Do not do anything reckless; those who are waiting for you inside are not entities that can be--
-Crrrrrraaaa!!
Following this, she walked towards the two main doors of the mansion that opened instantly in front of her as she approached.
*I know.* She pronounced these words telepathically after crossings the door.
"..."
[Besides being late, you dare to waste more time with this giant lizard!]
Simultaneously, the familiar voice accused her of being late resonated inside the mansion, more precisely near the door.
He was an old man with a long white beard up to his knees, and above all, he had a heavy turtle shell on his back and wore luxurious monk\'s clothes. But unlike Gargantua, he only measured about 170cm.
[Tsk, don\'t annoy me more than I am, senile old man. And stop talking to me in the primordial language. You are not primordial but an ancient beast; remember it!]
Sabrina retorted by pulling the old man\'s long beard, who did not change his expression despite Sabrina\'s disrespectful actions.
[Tsk, tsk, tsk! Is this how you treat your elders?! Sigh, it\'s a misfortune for this old man to endure children\'s whims.]
He then retorted while caressing his beard as if he wanted to erase Sabrina\'s traces.
"Sigh, no matter the weather, you there, the first three ancient beasts, seem frozen in time with your accents and antique behaviors. Anyway, it\'s a pleasure to see you always energetic, even if it would be better if you came to die!" She replied with a teasing smile when she saw the old man\'s expression change.
"Pfff~ seriously? You still have this habit, huh? Sigh, I offer my dishonest excuses to my DEAR ELDER." She continued as her smile grew on her lips.
Like the Leaders who were older than the ancient beasts, the first three ancient beasts were also older than Sabrina and her gang of Punishers.
"...?"
But the next moment, she frowns when she sees the aura of the ancient turtles\' ancestor change following her dark expression.
"You probably know what awaits you inside, don\'t you?" He asked with old eyes.
"..."
Seeing Sabrina\'s silence and dark expression, he sighed heavily before continuing.
"...Since you seem aware of recent events, I don\'t want to try to advise you. But despite everything, caution is the elder of safety. So pay attention to the person who decided to attend this meeting for the first time." He said, tapping Sabrina\'s purple high heel with his cane.
Seeing her actions, Sabrina guessed that his movements were not carefree, but still, apart from her soft smile, she did not have the slightest expression except the emptiness on her face.
"Thank you, old man. But you don\'t need to go that far for me. This war is not for you but--
"Close it, insolent little one! A simple thank you would have been enough." He stopped Sabrina with these harsh words.
"Huh? You misunderstand me, and I just don\'t want to be accused of having completed an old man already at the gates of death because he has used his power to protect me with his already rotten shell for millennia."
"Hugh! My shell is harder than your little shields. Now, get out in front of me before I change my mind!" He said, chasing Sabrina with his stick.
"Sigh, okay, okay. It\'s not like I\'m about to face a demonic God." She retorted with an ironic smile that could not hide the feelings of gratitude she felt towards the three elders.
As for the old man, he looked at Sabrina\'s back with confused eyes.
\'May you go back safe and sound, little girl.\' He whispered in his thoughts.
But the next moment, Sabrina stopped and looked at him with a sarcastic smile.
"I heard you, Fulgar!"
"Ugh! What an ill-behaved girl!"
"Haha~ don\'t worry, this girl won\'t let you die in peace."
With these last words, Sabrina goes down to the basement after passing by the stairs that led to the so-called basement.
"..."
After reaching the basement, she was welcomed by a gigantic door with an incredulous thickness of more than fifteen meters.
But at that moment, her coldness replaced her smile as she approached the door.
-Craaak-ka-ka-ka....
The next moment, the gigantic door began to open, exposing the darkroom that awaited her at the end.
But just as with the Queen\'s bedroom on Garyth plantation, the room behind the door was also covered with a thick fog that prevented not only the perceptions of primordial beings but even above them.
As a result, regardless of Sabrina\'s efforts, she could not see the inside of the darkroom before crossing the huge door.
But instantly, the gigantic door closes by itself after Sabrina enters the room.
-DOOOOM!!
At that moment, she couldn\'t help but clench her teeth after feeling pressure strong enough to put her almost on her knees.
[Echidna, don\'t be so sentimental towards Miss Alpha.] At the same time, Zenof\'s voice resonated in the darkroom as he coldly and majestically uttered these words with unprecedented arrogance.
[Sir Zenof, I inform you that this girl was not only late, but she also dared to make us wait longer by chatting with these miserable guards.]
As Sabrina\'s field of vision gradually and proportionally improved as she got away from the door, she heard a female voice resonate in the room.
[Echidna!] Zenof expressed himself once again with a more imposing voice than before.
[... Sigh, very good. I\'m letting it pass for this time. But if she dares to do the same thing again next time, I\'ll send her to the afterlife!]
After hearing Zenof call her that, Echidna, the guardian of the celestial library of Leaders, had no choice but to stop her actions.
"... Huff..." As for Sabrina, she finally exhaled the suffocating air that filled her lungs after feeling the pressure get off.
She found herself in the middle of a vast room that surrounded her with a Crystal rock that had chairs engraved in her, placed in a circle and at different heights.
And when she looked in front of her, the first person she looked at was a girl who had the same features as Zenof, with her wings of giant butterflies on her back and her long red hair descending along her back like a celestial waterfall.
Naturally, her pupils were ruby red like those of Zenof; but unlike Zenof, she had the silhouette of a mature woman with a fanciful black dress that perfectly drew her enticing curves for any man with little vigor.
Like a blood fairy queen, she was coldly seated on a crystal chair engraved on a gigantic white crystal rock.
The meeting room was more significant than the mansion itself and had dozens of chairs engraved in the rocks of crystals on which creatures and other strange entities occupied.
But just by seeing the positions of the chairs, and their heights, anyone could guess the essential people in the meeting room.
The most straightforward example to understand was that the chair of Lith and Séria, the two current queens of ancient beasts, were also present in the meeting room with the current king of ancient turtles, who was a young man with short black hair and dark pupils, sitting on the lowest chairs.
Above them, a man has slightly dark skin but who did not spoil anything in his appearance as a handsome man with his short curly golden hair, his pupils of the same color, and his face carved like a model in men\'s articles, was sitting on a chair a little higher than the chairs of the ancient beasts.
But in front of him, the chair that Sabrina was supposed to occupy was still vacant and was waiting for her owner, who had just entered the meeting room.
Unsurprisingly, the mysterious man could not be any other than Randolph, the current leader of the Leaders!
He had his nonchalant and vicious smile on his lips when he saw Sabrina\'s punishment that also looked at him with fierce eyes when she saw the mocking smile he threw at her as she joined her seat.
"Well, now that everyone is together, let\'s start the assembly." The next moment, a familiar voice also resounded on the third floor of the seats.
Even if this man had a little different appearance, unlike his first appearance, Sabrina identified the owner of this voice without even needing to look at him.
He was the monarch of corruption, the entity that exists for the sole purpose of corrupting everything that comes into contact with him and all those with whom he comes into contact.
Next to him, as a circle, there was also a handsome man resembling a human with a white dress with gold ruins drawn along it and a woman whore a half-dark-white mask with a bloody mist around her that made her silhouette more threatening than the other two.
The three monarchs of the goddess were also present in the meeting room!
