"Looks like 6 of the 7 attributed heirs are rushing towards the berserk beast!!!" Commentator no.1 exclaimed in excitement as he gazed at the screens, while the crowd cheered in similar excitement.
Elemental Dukes were counted to 6:
• Light Elemental Duke.
• Darkness Elemental Duke.
• Fire Elemental Duke.
• Water Elemental Duke.
• Land Elemental Duke.
• Wind Elemental Duke.
And lastly;
• The Space Element.
An attribute that belonged to the Royal Family.
Of course, inter elemental heirs also existed, but for reasons unknown, the heirs born from the inter elemental affairs had lower lifespan, even if it wasn't the case, by the time they reached the age of 30s they were said to have died due to being unable to withstand the aggressive growth of their attributed magical strengths.
Hence, either they have a family that promoted incest or have a talentless child, born in a Noble family, marry the heir of another Noble family, so that the child born between them has the most dominant attribute as their main element, which would then devour the secondary element to increase the main element's strength.
Gazing at the heirs rushing towards the berserk beast, Eadwulf smiled, excitedly.
Before, a coin shaped artefact in his pocket vibrated and blinked in a bright golden light.
He waved his hand and isolated himself from the outside world with a thick layer of mist around him, as he clicked the artefact which was then tossed at the ground.
BING-!
WHOOOSH-!
With a strange chime and the sound of air swirling, four vertical holographic screens materialized in front of him.
From his right; the Emperor of Dasiris Empire, the Ruler of the Great Dragons, the Queen of the Elven Kingdom, and the King of the Dwarf Kingdom, sat on their respective thrones and gazed at Eadwulf calmly.
"….."
Silence shrouded the room after a few seconds before,
"Pfft," A chuckle escaped the Dwarf King's mouth.
And as if his laugh stroked their funny bones,
"Hahahaha!!!" The Ruler of the Great Dragons laughed out loud, together with Eadwulf and the Dwarf King, who stopped holding himself back and laughed out loud.
The Emperor also joined them while the Elven Queen covered her mouth and chuckled elegantly.
"That dumb looks on your faces were priceless!!! Hahahaha!!" The Dragon Ruler commented as he laughed out loud.
After the [Towers Of Sins] manifested into their world out of nowhere and spawned in demons endlessly as they increased the birth rate of the beasts and monsters that existed in their world since its creation, rulers from all around the world came together and created an alliance to fight against the common enemy together with the "living records" or the "5 great heroes."
The alliance continued as generations passed. Greedy, puppet rulers, incompetent, envious, and impulsive rulers came and passed, now, as the alliance continued, the gap between races also lessen as current rulers became "friends" when they were still heirs, who were young and naïve, as they promised peace and freedom under their rule; maybe their naïve promises held power behind them, but they finally built an unified, dream-like world where the age of wars lessened significantly thanks to the Authoritative Rulers having friendly relationships with each other.
Of course, rebellious forces still existed, but they could be dealt with if they became too strong to be controlled.
"As if yours was any different!" The Emperor retorted to the Dragons Ruler's comment with a scoff.
After a few minutes of catching up, harmonious atmosphere dyed the virtual call(?), before Eadwulf brought up the reason behind the call.
"Alright, alright, enough. Let's talk about when you guys are sending your so-called talented heirs to my academy?" Eadwulf asked.
"Of course, brother! My child is ready, I'm just waiting for you to open up the teleportation seals within the academy and I'll send your youngest niece to meet to in a matter of minutes." The Dragons Ruler, Kavorthon, stated.
"Oh! I can't wait to meet her after so many years!" Eadwulf exclaimed and continued,
"What about you guys?" He asked.
"She should have already arrived at your VIP chamber." The Emperor, Beorhtric Greene De Dasiris, replied, hearing which, Eadwulf nodded his head.
"My Daughter is sleeping in her chambers without even waking up, haaa….." The Elven Queen, Eiraira El Amarië, muttered with a sigh.
"I don't think my youngest daughter wants to leave her workshop, so I don't think I can send her, of course, she may change her mind if you offer a better workshop in your academy." The Dwarf King, Marches, said.
""""Shameless!"""" All four of them exclaimed at the same time hearing Marches' shameless demand, but Marches merely shrugged his short shoulders in response.
"Well, I expected as much, send her, I have already prepared a workshop for her, and do tell her that I'm still ready to adopt her!" Eadwulf said with a smirk, noticing which Marches turned pale as Eiraira and Kavorthon laughed at his expense.
"No! You bastard, she'll really accept it if you offer her a workshop!! Don't say such words in front of her, or I'll bomb your academy!!!" Marches roared, but only received laughs in response.
"Hahahaha!!"
After joking around for a few more minutes, when their cheeks and stomach started to hurt, their duty called, as one after another, they hung up the call and returned to acting like strong and reliable rulers for their people.
"Then, I'll leave too." Kavorthon, who remained till the end, said and waved a goodbye before ending the call, making Eadwulf sigh.
'I can't believe I already miss those old coots….' He muttered inwardly and dispersed the mist wall around him.
By the time he dispersed the mist wall around him, his room had turned empty with both of his disciples abandoning him.
'I don't know where our Emperor's precious daughter went, shouldn't she talk to me and hear what I have to say first?' He wondered as he remembered how stubborn and arrogant his friends' children were.
"This….. is unexpectedly troublesome….." He muttered.
'How am I going to handle these ticking time bombs those old coots have placed on me?'
"Oh….." He exclaimed as he realized something.
"Huh?!"
"Dammit, I didn't expect to be tricked by their children's cuteness!!! All four of them are sending their youngest kids who are the most troublesome to deal with!"
'I missed that detail when I was conversing with them!!'
As he racked his brain to find a solution, the screens displaying the trainees revolved continuously and his golden eyes that had slightly dulled due to being enlightened that he was tricked, brightened instantly as his gaze landed on the crimson blindfolded man, who was sitting calmly beneath a tree's shade in lotus position.
"... this….might be a bit too cruel for those kids, but….. they need endure and taste defeat to grow stronger….." He muttered responsibly but the strange smirk on his face told that he was planning something crafty.
"Hehehe, don't blame me, blame your parents if you want to….."
