"After winning the war against Demon race in Year ...…. Due to the great contribution of previous guardian Adam of the void, dragon race was set to flourish and rule the world."
"But Guardian Adam betrayed the dragon race, sealing us in far edge of the universe, apart from all other races." It continued.
"Guardian Adam was the most powerful dragon in the dragon realm, said to have reached pinnacle of our evolution Dragon god realm having command over everything in the universe, but due to his decision of betraying dragon race he died, but the seal placed by him still exist."
"It was presumed for thousands of years that until another dragon god is born into the world, the dragon race will be sealed forever but that hypothesis changed when one of his expeditions 6th family leader discovered a floating piece of land in empty space nothing on it except a purple portal."
"On further expedition and research it was ascertained that it was a creation of previous guardian Adam and key to unlock the seal of dragon realm."
"The portal led us from one place to another which was not discovered by dragons yet. Once someone has entered the portal he had to satisfy some conditions to proceed further. When completed 99 of such trial, we face the 100th trial but the portal to 100th floor can only be opened by a blood relative of guardian Adam, who is current guardian Alex."
Everyone listened to the history with eager expressions but I was bored out of my mind to hear this one sided story. But what can I do the history was written by winners and my father was not a winner, the temporary measures taken by him were not enough and that is why I was going to finish what he has started a long time ago.
The reason I was inclined to unlock the seal was not only to achieve my freedom back but also there was something, some key which my father has left, which will not only help me defeat the king but help me touch the rumored realm of gods which my father has said to achieved in the past.
I would have already unlocked the seal and collected whatever was inside in it, but yet again this damned Soul contract has prevented me from doing that, but it was the double edge sword because king cannot force me to unlock the seal when the contract is active.
And now that we both have completed our preparation, it was time we finish this cat and mouse game. He was sure that he can take me down after releasing the contract and so was i.
After the AI has finished the briefing some important matters were discussed regarding how much time we should take to finish the trials, where to regroup because portal only allowed single entry. Even if two people enter together they are teleported to a different location.
"So the only thing we need to discuss is how to deal with the threat of the 100th floor, isn't it your majesty?" 4th leader Lucius of hell spoke while licking his lips looking in my direction, creepy son of ..., I thought.
He was the most stupid and vicious of all the leader who loved to torcher his prey, humiliating them. His head had a screw loose; the whole planet which he governed was full of criminals and knowing all this, bastard king allowed everything to happen.
When he spoke looking in my direction, I knew the threat he was talking about was me.
We had a long history with each other, he always wanted to test my bottom line but king has restrained him knowing that it won't be good for him. But once when king was away from the capital for who knows what to do, 1st leader got the information that Demion (Sword wielding retainer) whom he was trying to kill but lost his warebouts was in my territory, but he didn't had the guts to invade my domain, so he commissioned this lunatic to kill Demion.
And fool took the mission without knowing the consequences thinking that what worse could happen and he had king's backing as well. That was the biggest mistake of his life.
He wasn't even able to infiltrate the capital and had to retreat with huge losses while facing 5 retainers, but it didn't end there.
The next day he witnessed the scene in his capital which seemed more like nightmare to him, all his goons and criminals residing in his capital were massacred and he was next for trying to wage war against me in my territory but few leaders and king interfered.
But the disrespect he showed me now was evident from his remark and I was not going to ignore it, thinking how to deal with him I used my power of void and clenched my fist and with this action the stone chair on which 4th leader was sitting was uprooted from floor and crushed with the leader sitting on it and with another wave of my hand thrown to the corner of the conference room.
"Unless you are allowed to speak, don't dare raise your voice in front of his majesty the next time you disrespect his majesty, the consequences will be more sever." I said smirking.
"You, you dare attack me in front of his majesty." 4th leader stood up from the rubble clearly speaking to me, but looking at king he must have received some instruction otherwise he is not the type of person to think with his head in this kind of situations.
"Your actions just now were more disrespectful toward me than the 4th leader guardian Alex, what do you have to say in that regard?" King kept his cool and asked for explanation which made 4th leader more angry.
"You can punish me however you deem fit your majesty, but it was 4th leader who crossed the line first." My current actions were in no way harmful to king or royal family and that is why he will feel the backlash of soul contract if he personally attack me, it was a different story if he order someone else to do it.
It was also the 4th leader who had crossed the line first and considering king didn't care about leaders much anyway I suggested.
"We also don't have enough time to deal with these trivial things your majesty; how about we postpone this matter till we have finished the raid." I made a suggestion.
"Very well, we will discuss this matter once the raid is finished." After few moment of pause king spoke clearly not considering my actions worth his time and my objective was definitely not to anger him but let 4th leader know his place.
4th leader was bewildered by king accepting my suggestion sat down on his seat once again which was repaired automatically.
"Coming to the next topic of discussion, has everyone bought their draconic weapons?" King asked.
