Mark reached the meeting room a few minutes later, and the guard standing in front of the room opened the door to reveal all the members of the council present. Hunn, Riger, Matilda, Kaylen, and the other council members representing the various demon races were all seated around a large oval table at the center of the room. Once they saw Mark enter, they all stood as one and bowed to him reverently.
Mark moved toward the large chair at the head of the table, meant for the king, and it wasn't until he sat down that the rest of the council members also sat. There was a large map in the center of the table, showing the demon and Angel continents as well as how much territory had been captured. Mark felt a little bit of pride when he saw that Aragon Island and Myriad Castle were colored in red, showing they now belonged to the demons.
"Is your Queen not joining us for the meeting, my lord?"
