YM778.TV Chapter 209: Don't tell me you were right
"I understand why you\'re here, but none of us are interested in your husband... at least not romantically," she said, biting her lips. Like a gluttonous sinner, she wanted all the knowledge Dante had. "Tsk, cheap whores," she muttered, looking around for someone. "Come out, Reven, stop pretending you\'re not here," Morgana said, and from the shadows, black crows began to form a woman.
"Calling me by my real name... I see you\'re quite serious, big sister," Raven appeared. Unlike the women like Morgana and Alice, she was a bit more enigmatic, wearing a black cloak with a central blue jewel, and her short black hair reached her shoulders.
"Finally using your original appearance, I thought you\'d keep hiding in Kryoris as a decent teacher. I miss your cute look with golden hair," Alice said to her daughter.
"Don\'t treat me like a child, Mom, I\'m already an adult," she said seriously, but the older women in the room... "Haha... Adult..." Morgana murmured, laughing. Alice was the same, "Hehe, isn\'t she cute?" She laughed, Morgana nodded, and the two kept laughing at Raven. "Stop it!" Raven shouted, embarrassed. "Damn it!
I hate you both!" She said and disappeared into crows.
"That\'s why she hides from you two, you\'re unbearable," Lyra said seriously. "Shut up," Morgana said and returned to what she wanted to discuss. "As for Dante, I want you all to stay away from him," she reiterated, reinforcing her point. "I have no interest," Alice commented, "Besides, I doubt he\'d be interested in me. I\'m old," she said, sounding... a bit sad.
Morgana turned to her mother. "Stop the drama, you crazy old lady," she said, getting very close to her face. "Right now, he\'s destroying the pussy of that masochistic vampire who\'s over ten thousand years old. Valentina could be your mother by age! Age doesn\'t matter! And you still maintain that hot mature woman look!
You\'re exactly the type of woman he\'d choose!" Morgana shouted, but... well, Alice just blushed at hearing what her daughter said.
"Is she... crazy? How could I be with my son-in-law? No! Of course not... although it\'s...
exciting..." Alice thought... Well, just because she\'s obsessed with knowledge doesn\'t mean she wouldn\'t want to know a man\'s body. "Your thoughts are overflowing! You old hag!" Morgana yelled, seeing her mother with a malicious look while lost in thought.
"Shut up, you wretched bitch, you\'re giving me a headache! I spent ten years exploring that man to try and bring him back! If something like that happens, it\'s just my reward! I know as much about him as you do! Stop provoking me like this!" Alice shouted, freaking out... Well, she was right, she worked hard for her daughter\'s happiness.
"Damn you! You\'re desiring your daughter\'s husband!" She screamed and suddenly...
*BOOM*
Morgana went flying, breaking through several walls... a scene you\'d clearly see in a comic of the big guy in blue who wears underwear and pants...
"Damn..." she said, realizing she wouldn\'t stop flying anytime soon and that her body was under a spell... "I hate still not understanding these unique magic formulas of that old woman. Well, at least my objectives were achieved... it\'s been three days since my beloved has been with that vampire... Damn." She bit her nails as her body still flew aimlessly because of Alice.
"Well, I\'ll use this opportunity to study this magic code, maybe I can identify the Anti-magic if I learn how she creates the codes... Damn, distinct magical language is hell..." Morgana murmured as she continued to fly...
While Morgana was minding her own business... let\'s say a somewhat unknown woman was causing a stir elsewhere.
"You must be joking, right?!" Lyrianna shouted upon hearing what Sara said through the communication magic. "You! You! How dare you go weeks without talking to your mother after everything she did for you and then \'get married\' without telling her?!" She continued, she seemed furious, even through a magical screen projected by an object...
"Calm down, you\'re going to destroy our house again, have more respect for the nation\'s builders," Sara said seriously, seeing how furious this woman was, and it was quite complicated... "Do you want me to remind you when you cut down an entire forest just because you missed your beloved, Sara?" she remarked.
"Tsk, using that again," Sara muttered, annoyed. "Yes, you killed many trees! Murderer!" Lyrianna said, her tone now more comedic than angry. "Stop it! I was out of my mind!" Sara shouted, really getting upset; that was a low blow!
"Tsk! Why are you bothering me at this hour!" Sara quickly said. "Oh yes..." Lyrianna remembered the matter she needed to discuss with her daughter... "We\'re approaching that time again... I know you don\'t like this date, but..." Sara heard and was confused. "What are you talking about, mother?" she asked, and Lyrianna stared at her.
"The anniversary of Dante\'s death... or rather, now that he\'s alive again... the Demon King Tournament of Kryoris," she heard and blinked twice...
Demon King Tournament... after Dante\'s death, the known Celestial Virtues confirmed that he really was a Demon King, which caused quite a stir in the world. In a way, the world was never really receptive to demons because many times they caused a lot of problems due to their nature. A clear example of this was Greed, who turned a future Emperor into a cockroach.
Just as there were Virtues, there were also Sins, and Kryoris created a system to train and detect these major problems.
A tournament. A form of training aimed at higher power rulers being more active in identifying people who might be vessels for Sins or Virtues. Not only that, but also a way to popularize training within the Academy.
When the Blood Armageddon happened, Dante was accused in every possible way, but that was by far not one of the biggest problems. The real problem was the fact that within the strongest, safest, and most respected Academy, a Demon King was born, and this greatly tarnished its name.
To recover and keep things safe, the tournament was created, with a suggestion from the Giant King and the Werewolf King, of course approved by the rulers together.
To recover everything and still gain in the process, the theme "Demon King Tournament" emerged. Of course, there were other measures they could take, but would the people approve? Well, probably not. So they created something that people would always enjoy, a festival and a good fight. This was the result of the Tournament.
"Mother... this is..." Sara commented, and Lyrianna nodded. "That\'s why I would like an audience with your husband." Lyrianna said firmly, seeing the woman\'s face change completely. "Mother... stay away from my husband." She said with eyes as deep as an abyss, even Lyrianna, a ruler, trembled at how her daughter looked at her, but well... "You misunderstood, you idiot.
I just want to talk to him because theoretically, he is now the representative of the Western Empire." Lyrianna explained... "H-how do you know that?" Sara questioned, after all, currently all information about what happened in the Empire should be completely sealed and without any trace leaked to the outside.
"Everyone knows, Sara, or do you think a Demon King could walk freely around the world without being spied on? All nations already know about Dante Scarlet, everyone felt his awakening and saw him even protecting Velryna and Adam. The speculation is that Dante is the husband of Velryna Smith... or rather, Velryna Scarlet.
After all, I find it hard for someone like Aldria to be the Empress alone without an Emperor, and if she\'s trying to do that, this empire will fall... But the story changes when a Demon King is supporting her, don\'t you agree?" Lyrianna questioned, and Sara was left speechless, just staring at her.
"So I\'m right, Dante Scarlet is going to take command of the Empire... despite the ridiculous rumors of a Demon King taking over a Human Empire, demons and humans go well together, at least that\'s good." Lyrianna commented, and Sara was surprised by her words, "Good?" She questioned seriously.
"With Dante in command, or at least supporting, it means that the Eastern and Western Empires are in alliance. After all... He is your husband, and that also makes him the next emperor of the East." Lyrianna smiled, after all... Over all these years, her focus had always been the protection of her nation, but now... with Dante in the equation... Her status had risen considerably.
"If I were you, I would talk to Dante before assuming anything, mom... I\'m sure he won\'t like it if you say things that don\'t align with him," Sara said seriously, "Why do you think I want to talk to him, huh?" Lyrianna questioned with a mischievous smile...
"Nagasawa... don\'t tell me you were right..." Sara murmured, remembering Nagasawa\'s words...
