" The importance of selection of the judge in this case cannot be underestimated " Neatwit said as he tried to stress the format and functions of the new universal court judicial system. " Theoretically, we would want a judge that is skewed in our favour and Regus would want one skewed in his own. Reaching a common ground would be next to impossible and hence both parties would be given a form containing the name of 9 other monarchs. Both would be asked to give priority to the monarchs they…

( Asiva's POV ) Asiva's belly had begun to show now and her usual threatening movement speed had slowed down significantly. She had begun to actively avoid any shocks or accidents and was roaming around with the signature pregnant glow on her face. Her destination today was the True Elites headquarters on planet radiance where she was supposed to meet with guildmaster Neatwit, and to her absolute delight she was treated like somewhat of a celebrity when she finally did arrive on the guild…

( Regus Aurelius's POV ) Regus was stomped with work, but while his duties as a monarch were urgent and important, they were forced to take a backseat after Ixtal was drowned in werewolf howls. Max's antics had put the entire planet on high alert and while the Aurelius clan comprised most of the inhabitants of Ixtal there were still ambassadors of all clans present on the planet who were demanding an answer to what exactly happened. The news of the event travelled fast and Regus was reluctant…

While the howls of the fallen terrified every vampire on Ixtal, Max who was underwater was completely oblivious to what was going on above the surface. Unfortunately due to the times that Max lived in he spent more time sharpening his other battle techniques and sensed rather than sharpening bloodline ability. There were hardly any occasions where Max fought with his Bloodline ability on full display without a care in the world and it was for this reason that he did not truly understand the…

Max smiled listening to Regus's offer. If there were any lingering doubts in his mind that the King was desperate, they were now dispelled. Regus's hatred for him was so profound it was oozing through his teeth as he said this offer. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that if Regus was not forced to give Max such a flowery offer, he would most likely be dead by now, or still rotting inside the underground prison. The fact that Regus was forced to hold this talk was a big win for Max as it…

Max walked up to Regus's office in Ixtal with a smug smile on his face. The war had changed everything. Before the war, with the bigger threat of the dark faction always looming around, the light faction monarchs would never dare squabble internally, but that situation had now changed. The light faction politics had become more prominent and Regus Aurelius was clearly unpopular. If he had chosen to ally with Max instead of making an enemy out of him, he could have enjoyed a majority…

The council meeting went on for another 21 days, where the table rotated for a total of 5 times before the meeting was concluded. In these 3 weeks time a total of 43 resolutions were brought forward but only 15 were eventually passed. While everyone else walked with at least some benefits from the meeting, the only one who could have not a single resolution passed in his favour was Regus Aurelius as despite his best efforts his political isolation was set in stone. However, while he was the…

( The council of monarchs ) The agenda began rotating over the next week where in 7 days 9 new resolutions were discussed. Most of these resolutions were only pertaining to a particular monarchy and with everyone hoping to push their own agendas they also supported the petty agendas of other monarchs so that they could rally support for themselves when the time came. Not every resolution brought to the table was morally correct. The suggestion of Beniogre to make the wrongdoers of dark…

( Max's POV ) Max needed a few days to recover from sorting and understanding the information on page one of the book of the primal god of war. It wasn't that he did not wish to move onto page two, but somehow just reading page 1 drained his mind and body so thoroughly that he needed a few days to recover enough to continue. Thankfully, in his isolated and dark cell there was no one to interrupt his recovery as he was able to gather his thoughts in peace. Hence, now that he was fully…

The dark faction were better suited to run the universe... It was a notion that all light faction monarchs wanted to vehemently deny, yet somewhere deep down inside them they knew that the notion of 'might makes right' wasn't wrong at all. Those who stood at the pinnacle of the light faction knew very well that they could get away with transgressions that a common man could never hope to get-away with. The light faction society was supposed to be fair, but it was tilted in favour of the…
