"I will… do everything I can to restore the Human Empire to its former glory, and to also restore the once ancient alliance we held with the other countries. I'll try… to make things right." Henrietta's resolve was the real deal. It made me happy to hear her say such things.
"Well said." Ervas smiled. "You've learned well enough what being a real ruler is."
"I guess you two taught her well." I sighed with a smile. "Now-"
"Welcome, Travelers." Suddenly, a rough manly voice echoed from the end of the hall, a bearded dwarf wearing golden armor and wearing a big crown decorated with fine jewelry greeted us. "I am the Dwarf King, Fafnir, it is an honor to meet all of you. I've heard many things about you in specific, Kireina! Oooh! And Ryo and Amiphossia are here, your children were of great help back then when we were being invaded by those huge tentacles! You have my eternal gratitude."
"Heheh, it is nothing, King Fafnir!" Said Amiphossia pridefully. "You paid back with all the meat you gave to us. It was really tasty~" She said while licking her lips and rubbing her belly.
"No problem old man." Ryo smiled, crossing his six arms. "We've finally brought her here. She was quite the big deal to handle. And we had to fight tons of powerful foes on the way. However, the Blue Genie is taken care of."
"Those are splendid news." A handsome elf man walked in, wearing regal clothing.
"F-Father?!" Elfina asked. "DADDYYYYY!"
"Oh, Elfina!" Her father was surprised, as Elfina hugged him tightly. "Hahaha, did you miss me? I also missed you."
"Daddy, a lot of stuff happened…" Sighed Elfina.
"I know. I also learned you were taken hostage." He sighed. "I was so worried… To be honest, if it wasn't because we were so busy protecting the Kingdom, I would had come somehow to help you… But I am so happy that you're back with Kireina and everyone else. Thanks for protecting and saving my princess all these times."
"Hahaha, no problem." I smiled. "She's my Summoner after all, I've gotta always protect her."
"Indeed." Sol nodded. "I will keep watching over Lady Elfina as long as I possibly can."
"It was scary but… I managed to break out of that monster, and we've finally taken them all down!" Elfina celebrated.
"Indeed." Fafnir nodded. "We've already heard that the threat we were all fearing has been taken down, the Genie of the Dessert, a powerful being born from the Ancient Gods creations."
"He had taken Elfina hostage and used his powers to corrupt her own Abilities, forcing her to summon enemies from my own world to attack us." I sighed. "It was really annoying, but we managed to fend them off, and I've killed a very important one too. The Maxima Universe Ruler is no more for now."
"Oh, so it was true…" Ervas was shocked. "You killed him and replaced him in his universe?!"
"Amazing…" Aurora gasped.
"W-Woah, you just jumped to Universal Ruler Rank?" Veronica was shocked.
"More or less." I nodded. "But that power is still contained within the Universe of Maxima. Though, I can channel its powers as mine temporarily… Also, I've parasitized the Necrotic Plane Ruler with my soul, so he'll grow weaker over time, and I bite his soul, taking a massive piece off it, he won't bother us for the time being, he is too weakened to do so."
"The origin of the tentacles has also been dealt with? Splendid! Gahahaha! You're so amazing! I suppose you and your kids could truly be capable of defeating the Demon King!" Fafnir laughed.
"We hope so." I nodded. "More importantly, now that all the big shots are gathered here, let's talk. What are your plans?"
Like that, we gathered around a long table, as the Dwarf King called his servants and they brought us a gigantic feast. Grilled pork covered on delicious spices of the dwarves, sweet creamy pies covered on colorful fruits from the elves, strong, bubbly, and delicious beer that made you want to drink more and more with every sip, freshly baked pizza with melted cheese and salty pepperoni, and more.
"The Demon King has been a threat ever since his birth." Said the king of dwarves. "It is said he was born from the Miasma off the corpses of the Gods, a foul beast that took the shape of a man. Containing the unique and powerful Chaos Element, he overpowered all Demon Tribes and forced them to cooperate, unifying them into what's now known as the Demon Kingdom."
"Since his birth that his powers have allowed him to create Monsters constantly, aberrations that had spread across our World." Said Henrietta. "The various Demon Tribes are not exactly to blame either. There are innocent lives there, which we will not take. Our aim is their King, and whoever stands by his side as his loyal subjects."
"Lately, he had become more aggressive." The Elven King said. "His Miasmic Powers are spreading from within his castle, I could feel them with my Spiritual Eyes. He's specifically choosing to create small Dungeons near our countries, to flood them with monsters… Usually, two or three dungeons are appearing every week… I fear a new dungeon popping up every day would become a reality soon enough."
"I don't really know of his plans, but it is quite clear that the bastard wants to flood the world with as many monsters as he can. And they ain't any weaker either! Most of them were B to A Rank Monsters! My best warriors can barely take them down with their Golems. And as the only S+ Rank fighter in my entire country, I can't be everywhere."
"My country also faced such problems, but it was thanks to Ervas, Veronica, and Aurora's aid that we've managed to fend off the beasts and destroy the Dungeon Cores." Said Henrietta with a smile. "But more dungeons are emerging even now… If things continue, other farther regions such as the Desert where you came from will also be threatened."
"I see…" I nodded. "I guess it is his way to tell us to hurry up." I laughed.
