MEANWHILE ON PANDEMONIUM
The throne room is full of official after the battle. They were all summoned and they are still shook after what happened tonight.
Azief is in the Throne Room, looking over them sitting on his Dragon Throne.
Standing beside him is Will, his body seems to be full of arcs of electricity encircling his body, healing his injury in an accelerated manner.
'You sure you are alright?' Azief ask. Will nod. He clenches his fist as the electricity around him is slowly growing brighter.
'That woman steals my speed a bit but it did not injure me badly. And thanks for the potions and pills'
Azief just nodded.
'I'm glad you are here at least. It feels like a long time. I need people I could trust right now' Azief said
Will smile.
Then he looks in front of him. He saw many officials on either side of the throne waiting to speak
'Is it alright for me to listen to this?' Will leans in and whispers it to Azief ears.
Azief chuckles a bit and nodded
The officials that see the Death Monarch chuckling could not help but feel shocked.
This is the first time they saw the Death Monarch shows any expression at all in this kind of meeting.
Usually the Death Monarch will always be expressionless and that fill the officials heart with dread and uncertainty.
No one could guess his thoughts. No one knows whether he is pleased or angry.
While the Death Monarch rarely administer this large vast of land, it did not diminish his authority at all.
In this new world, normal laws of power that determine the power structure no longer works. Usually a ruler who did not administrate will always be usurped by its officials.
But after the Fall, many people learn this didn't work anymore. To be more accurate it didn't work on certain people.
Death Monarch is the prime example.
His supreme authority is unchallenged, not just because of the loyalty of the army towards him but also because of his almost invincibility against his enemies.
While he is in seclusion no one dares to make too much of a trouble. No one wanted to wake the calamity.
Then Azief look at his officials and order
'Report'
The cold and suffocating atmosphere returns back in the Throne Room as many of the officials gulped in anxiousness.
Sina is not here as she said she wanted to be excused from the meeting. Other than Sasha and Sofia no one else could easily be excused from the meeting when they are summoned.
The Three Army is preventing the sea monsters that is scattering around the coast from doing too much damage which is why the Three Generals is not here.
Sasha, the leader of the Shadow Guards….she on the other hand was always exempt from going to the meeting.
One of the officials step forward and then he reported
'Reporting to Death Monarch. The World Government and the Republic has made contact with the alien fleet.'
Azief nodded.
He also wanted to meet the fleet and prevent if anything bad were to happen before he was shocked with that battle in the Sea.

From what he gathered, nothing dangerous happened. Seeing the skies is at peace….he knows that this alien race might have different purpose from coming here.
Seeing many different worlds and experience many lives, Azief knows that not all alien race is warlike.
'And? Their purpose?'
The officials immediately answered
'They seem to be searching for an escaped prisoner of their race'
Azief eyes turn cold.
Even though Azief has confirmed that alien woman is dead, that smile before she died fills Azief with unease.
'What did the World Government and the Republic do?'
'They set the meeting to be on Earth a week from now' the official answered
Azief thought for a moment and then he said
'They are not entirely incompetent. Anything else?' Another official stepped out and then he reported
'The Arrays Master Lee Sangmin has taken half of China with Wei. The Wei has managed to stage a comeback and is stronger than Yue right now'
Azief eyes slightly waver hearing this news.
'How…is that possible? When did this happen!' He slams his hand on his Dragon Throne. The throne crack in the handle as a shockwave spread out from the Throne.
Azief eyes were red and dark red aura surrounded his throne.
All the people inside the room could smell blood as their face turns pale. Will eyebrows creased as the arcs of lightning around him dispel the aura.
Azief is enraged. He already prohibits war for one year, his declaration rang out throughout the world.
Could it be this Lee Sangmin is an idiot?
Did he think Azief words is just mere words. He gave his word to the world. It is more than just word. It is a decree!
The title the strongest in the world is not for show. Lee Sangmin is just provoking war with him.
Azief mood was already not good in the beginning and hearing this news only made his mood worse.
If he did not make an example of this matter, who would ever take his word seriously again?
The officials below the throne could all feel the Death Monarch anger. They all could see Azief killing intent rising up.
Azief knows that after Wang Jian and his army went to Pandemonium China was in chaos but how can Lee Sangmin easily carved up half of China even though the population of China is low right now?
As Azief is slowly getting angry an official quickly steps out and explain. This officials is a bit chubby not because of some secret technique but because he loves eating.
And not in a bad way.
He enjoys food and loves food very passionately. It is a passion he could not leave even after the Fall.
He had the Unique Class of Gourmet
His forehead is sweating. This official has been given some gold to make sure he put a good word to the Death Monarch.
If he allowed the Death Monarch to feel angered, the Death Monarch might just fly out from the Throne Room and went to China to kill Lee Sangmin.
That would surely not be good for him
'Reporting to Death Monarch. Lee Sangmin did not break the prohibition of war' Azief look toward the chubby official.
He didn't remember this person.
But he allowed him to speak
'Speak. What do you mean by that?'
'Lee Sangmin the Arrayist master created a magical protective border separating half of China from other factions. He created a barrier with his Arrays. This arrays runs deep through the China soils. He plans this for years with Wei. Inside the array formation barrier his power increased and other people were weakened.' Azief hearing this calm down and at the same time was impressed.
He really hides very skillfully. After what happens during Weronian War Azief remembers that Lee Sangmin runs out on him.
But Azief did not pursue this matter. At the time he knew that if Lee Sangmin if he did not run at that time he would die
And for Azief level right now he disdains himself to take revenge for such a petty reason.
'Oh…..'And then a smirk appears in Azief face.
'So…that is how he does it. Of course there is a loophole in my words and people could always use it if they are smart enough. I will not pursue this matter with him...but send an emissary to China and ask him if he wanted a seat on the Distribution of the World event'
The official brightens up and nodded as he steps back to his position
'Yes, my lord'
Azief is not an idiot.
The reason why Lee Sangmin did this must be because he wanted to have a seat in the Distribution of the World Meeting.
He is staging his comeback.
'Any other matters?' no one say anything anymore.
Most matter would be handled by the relevant department and they all knew that the Death Monarch did not like to bother himself with simple matters.
They all shake their head.
'Then, I will be catching up with my friend. If there is any matters that requires my presence inform the Keepers' Saying this he got up from his throne and walk out from the meeting as he talks with Will.
They were at the Palace courtyard and the place was sound proof. Then Will told him about something and Azief only smiles. He then said
'I pay a large price for this' as he handed something to Will
'What do you mean brother?' Will was perplexed
'That place you are searching for…I know where it is.' Will eyes widened.
'You do?'
'Yes.' And then smirking he said.
'One day, you will have to repay this' Azief said jokingly. Will smiles
'Alright'
Then Azief told him what he knew about that place. It is about a temple underneath the sea, on a river beneath the sea.
Will was clearly overjoyed. It is his chance to get a hand on one of the legacies of Speedster.
And then Azief that night he seems to be communicating with the people from the Republic and World Government.
He talked with Jean the most. They hit it off and they discuss more through the night. In the end they finished it with the meeting in a week
'Hawaii'
That is the answer he got when he asked the meeting place. He only chuckles when he heard the meeting place.
The next morning, White Tiger Army moves out to Hawaii to join the clearing squad for the meeting that is about to happen in the week.
The whole world was shocked when the news was revealed that the Three Great Forces will meet the representatives of the alien fleet.
