In a gothic looking room adorned with intricate decorations, various holographic screens displayed the current events that were currently happening in the world .....
An intimidating looking man bearing a trench coat with a large scar tracing down the area of his right cheek stood before the holograms with varying expressions on his face simultaneously from time to time ....
An expression of fear finally flashed in his eyes, however, the expression quickly vanished, replaced with a wide grin that boasted malicious intent ...
The man finally turned to the two other people seated across the conference table in the gothic looking room ....
Looks of awe radiated from the 2 people- the man and the woman who stared at him... It was obvious whoever the intimidating man standing before them was, he was far from ordinary .
The man finally spoke " It appears a wild card has appeared .. He is extremely strong .... So strong that I don't know if we would have been able to defeat him on our own ... However , It's a good thing we joined the demonic beasts ... Those clueless fuckers really think there are only about 30 S ranked demonic beasts . The probably think the strange guy in the videos have bested and eliminated ten...and now they remain 20 now... What they don't know is that the sea of Japan houses about 500 slumbering S ranked demonic beasts that will soon rise to join the domination of demonic beasts that will be led by the Queen of demonic beasts-her highness Panora herself ...With those number of S ranked demonic beasts , each commanding a horde of A ranked monsters, with the horde of A ranked monsters commanding B ranked monsters and below, humanity is already deadmeat .... Not even that guy in the videos with his strange powers can rival those numbers... Our dream will finally become a reality ... " Arkon Xandros , the leader of the Xeros Hand spoke... This was a villainous society of awakened with twisted ideals to destroy all human life apart from themselves ..
However they had been extremely secretive and had not even bared their fangs at society a single time ... They were waiting for an opportune time where humanity was extremely vulnerble to strike ..
" It's a good thing that the demonic beasts seek the destruction of humanity just like we do .... Submitting to Panora was the right choice after all... She gave us two options, to either submit or we die, with her strength, it was the only choice,and since our goals aligned, it was a plus for us... " Mancer, the man amongst the pair who were giving the intimidating man reverential looks earlier spoke.. However, the female seemed to be in deep thought, as though she was contemplating something ..... Then she voiced softly as she fidgeted with her hands
" And ....and ....what ....what happens to us after she takes over?... Won't she kill us, aren't we humans?...."
"If she wanted to kill us, she would have done that a long time ago Xala...I overhead from one of her trusted subordinates that in the past, she claimed to have given humans the chance to submit and become slaves to the demonic beasts and she would let them live, however the leader of the humans she gave that offer to told her that never in a million years would humans bow to the demonic beasts... So what if we become slaves in the end , since we decided to submit to her, she will spare us. This our chance to prove our loyalty to her, and she might even grant us groundbreaking positions when the age of demonic beasts arrive ...." Arkon Xandros responded ,his voice laced with authority .. For someone who had been forced to submit to the demonic beasts with the threat of death were the Xeros Hand to reject the offer, he was very loyal...
" Master Xandros, you seem to hold this demonic beast in extremely high regard don't you?" Xala responded , intrigue drawn on her face ..
" It's not that I hold her in high regard, by siding with her we get what we want... a world free of human rulership ... Even if it would be dominated by monsters, it's better than a world ruled and dominated by humans ...."...
Arkon's voice turned icy , memories of a painful past shrouding his eyes ...
He held the table...subconsciously activating his affinity in anger....
Large cracks spread across the conference table , then the table begun to decay..... Yes ... The table decayed ... and turned to ashes .... This was not the ashes formed from the burning power of flames.... Arkon had used his affinity, the ability to cause things to decay...
Xala and Mancer sighed, empathizing with Arkon, they reminisced in their own past, and their resolve to see human life eradicated grew to unimaginable heights ...
*****
In a large hall teeming with eerie lights, a large pond that glowed crimson suddenly moved, followed by the appearance of a head which seemed to have been underneath the water...
A figure's head emerged, followed by an exquisite figure in red robes that would put many ladies to shame....
Her black hair flowed ceaselessly, her crimson eyes glowed with otherworldly intensity, and profoundness,as though she had lived for a very long time...
She seemed lost in her own world as she stared endlessly into the distance, lost in her own thoughts then she muttered to herself, as the picture of a figure formed in her mind " Aravan .... You told me centuries ago that humanity would never bow to us demonic beasts, not in a million years.... The injuries you gave me during that epic battle have finally healed .... You could only injure me, and even in my injured state, I managed to kill you...yet, I had to recuperate in seclusion .. but now.... I've completely healed ... Aravan... Everything you fought for .. the lives of those humans will all be in vain, now that I've recovered ..... You humans have always acted pompous as though you are at the top of the food chain.... This time ... I ...Panora ...will crush humanity ...and you won't be there to stop me... That shadow user brat ... Seems to be an unknown variable that has appeared out of nowhere , that makes it all the more exciting ... He's just a shadow user like you were .... Although he's stronger than you from the videos I've watched ..... I'll still crush him ... He might be above the S rank, which is literally impossible no matter how much you look at it. , but when have I ever been a normal S ranked demonic beast , I cannot die ... And that will be my trump card... I will exhaust him in a battle of attrition and and end him ..."
With those words, Panora, the queen of he demonic beasts disappeared from the room
