Chapter 1070 Watch The World Burn Together [Part 1]

"It's nice to meet you, Mother," Iris said with a smile as she greeted Adeline, whom Lux and Vera had brought to Barbatos Academy to meet the rest of their family.

"I'm glad that I was able to meet you as well, Mother." Cai made a sign of greeting that was exclusive to the Rowan Clan.

"It's my pleasure to meet both of you," Adeline replied as she looked at the two beautiful ladies, who were her son's fiances. "I hope that we all get along well."

Iris and Cai had long wanted to meet Adeline, and seeing her now, they could tell that she shared many similarities with their handsome fiance, especially her eyes.

Lux watched as the two beautiful ladies dragged his mom away, while giving him the "Don't follow us, okay?" gaze, which made him scratch his head.

Vera shook her head helplessly and followed behind them, leaving Lux and Aurora alone.

"Aren't you going to go with them?" Lux asked Aurora who remained by his side.

Aurora shook her head. "I have been with your mother the longest. I think it's about time that Iris and Cai had some private time with her."

The Half-Elf smiled as he gently pulled the beautiful young lady in his arms and kissed her cheek.

"Then, let's go meet with Father for a while," Lux said. "Although he is a bit stoic, he will be your father-in-law in the future, so we need to make him more familiar with you."

Aurora nodded. "I will listen to you."

The Half-Elf then held her hand and guided her towards the Headmaster's Office where Alexander usually stayed whenever he was in the Academy.

Currently, Alexander was busy managing the paperwork of the project that he and Maximilian had started in Elysium.

The Barbatos Academy and the Rowan Tribe were currently developing the territory that they had secured a good distance from the Xynnar War Pact.

With the imminent fall of Solais, they needed to find a safe place for their people. Because of this, they decided to cultivate one of the least desired areas that even the Xynnar War Pact hadn't bothered to set their sights on.

The land was dry and arid, and crop production was nearly impossible.

However, Alexander and Maximilian were confident that if their two Factions worked together, it would only take them two to three years to make the place habitable.

Also, with two Saints serving as their town's guardian, the Saints of the Xynnar War Pact were hesitant to hamper their progress.

They knew that even though they had greater numbers, they still didn't dare to provoke the two individuals, who had once flatted the Capital City of the Ashina Kingdom.

When Lux, and Aurora arrived at the office, they found Alexander and Maximilian looking at a projection on the wall.

A beautiful woman could be seen in the projection, and it was none other than Alicia, who served as Alexander's secretary.

"Lux, come," Alexander said the moment Lux, and Aurora had entered his office. "You have to see this."

The Half-Elf obeyed and looked at the projection to see a grim-faced Alicia.

"I just confirmed from one of our scouts that the Capital City of the Ashina Kingdom was completely destroyed," Alicia reported. "Also, all the members of the Royal Family have been killed, including the King.

"Currently the Saints of the Xynnar War Pact, as well as our people are investigating the cause of the incident. All of the evacuees, who managed to leave the city before it was burned down, said that a giant, floating, Bone Ship, was responsible for the destruction of their Capital City." contemporary romance

"Bone Ship?" Lux blinked. "A flying Bone Ship? Such a thing exists?"

"Are you not able to do something like that, Lux?" Maximilian asked.

Lux shook his head. "Unless the bones already have flying properties, I am unable to create a flying Bone Ship, especially a giant one."

"Originally, we thought that it was you because you are the only Necromancer that we know of who has a grudge against the Ashina Kingdom," Alicia commented.

"Are you talking about the incident that happened in the Entrance of the Hidden Domain a year ago?" Lux inquired. "Actually, I was also planning to give them a visit to have my revenge. But, it seems that someone beat me to it."

Alexander and Maximilian glanced at each other and smiled.

They didn't hesitate to trample the capital city of the Ashina Kingdom in the past, and frankly, if not for the fact that their relationship with the Xynnar War Pact might become even more strained, they would have killed the members of the Ashina Royal Family then and there.

No one was more than happy to see the wretched Kingdom burn down in flames than Alexander and Maximilian.

In fact, the first suspects of the Xynnar War Pact as to who had caused this destruction were none other than Lux, Alexander, and Maximilian.

However, none of the survivors saw any of them, especially Maximilian, who transformed into a giant Black Boar whenever he fought.

"Then, do you have any idea who caused this?" Alexander asked Alicia.

"No," Alicia replied. "The Ashina Kingdom has many enemies because Prince Lionell has offended many people."

"Did any of the survivors see anyone emerge from the ship?" Maximilian inquired. "Anything that can give us a clue as to what happened?"

Alicia nodded. "Actually, we have made a startling discovery regarding this incident. According to a few of the High-Rankers that we interviewed, they saw an unbelievable sight.

"There were more than a hundred Saints that had appeared in the skies of the Ashina Kingdom. They even said that there were at least three people who gave a more powerful presence than the Saints.

"Although none of them dared to confirm it, I have a feeling that these presences that they felt belonged to Supremes."

Alexander and Maximilian frowned after hearing the word Supremes.

Although Supremes were non-existent within the Six Kingdoms, Xynnar War Pact, and the Skystead Alliance, they had at least seen them from a distance when they were still traveling all over Elysium.

Even so, the two of them found it hard to believe that Supremes actually visited their region to personally oversee the destruction of a Kingdom.

Also, the eye-witness reports of over a hundred Saints appearing over the skies of the now-destroyed-kingdom made their frown deepen.

There was only one explanation for this incident and that was none other than an invasion.

Invasion from stronger forces outside of the Xynnar War Pact and the Skystead Alliance.
