Chapter 30
"I know, Davis . Father won't forget the most important thing . I might be a failure of an Emperor but I'll definitely protect you guys at the cost of my life!" Logan declared determinedly .
Davis was content that his father thought this way . He didn't want a father who was spouting all Emperor nonsense anyway .
Few minutes passed before a guard announced the arrival of the various Empires one by one .
The first to show up was the Ruth Empire, followed by, Ashton Empire, Ross Empire and finally the Claymore Empire .
The ones to show up were the Emperors of each Empire, not the Ambassadors . They gave respect to the rumoured senior behind the Empire, not the current Emperor of the Loret Empire .
They greeted each other and sat in their designated seats respectively .
A banquet was setup way before they arrived on the venue . Each of them enjoyed great delicacies consisting of Peak Level Sky Beast Stage Magical Beasts . Sky Beast Stage Beasts were equal to the 3rd step of the Human Cultivation .
"Emperor Loret, this Blazing Tiger meat is delicious and nourishing as well . . This should've cost severely, are you sure that's it's not going to lessen your Empire's Treasury?" Emperor Alex Claymore curiously questioned . His face looked sharp, his eyes emitting Sword Intent that was capable of killing with a look . He looked fit, his body draped with luxurious sword patterned robe .
Alex Claymore couldn't fathom how they were still rich even after facing two calamities .
'Damn, his looks can kill, literally!' Davis's thoughts were swirling around his mind . He kept an innocent face looking left and right .
"Haha, how can I hold back when I heard that the Emperors were going to pay my Empire a visit? Naturally, if I can do this, then it is within my means . " Logan grinned .
"Haha, the Loret Empire sure is rich!" Emperor Van Ross laughed . His face looked amiable, his eyes blue . He looked a little fat, but that doesn't warrant to be looked down upon . He wore a lavish imperial robe with beautiful droplet patterns .
'Looks can be quite deceiving…'
"Long years of peace must have filled their pockets immeasurably, maybe the Loret Empire is even rich compared to the 4 of us combined . " Emperor Louis Ashton smirked . His face looked handsomely evil, he wore dark red imperial robes with azure flame patterns .
'God, this guy looks so evil…'
"Haha, surely you jest, Emperor Ashton . " Logan sneered .
"Now now, there is no use fighting, let's enjoy the banquet a little more gentleman . " Empress Isabella Ruth commented with a beautiful smile on her face .
She was a beauty who would quench a man's desire, she looked mesmerising with her laidback personality . Her waist long hair, with puff and wavy bangs . She had fair skin, her body ample with assets that would make a man drool . She wore an azure royal robe which accentuated her beauty tenfold .
Davis gulped silently . 'Perfect!'
Fortunately no one looked at him .
"Yes, yes" All three Emperors simultaneously echoed and laughed .
Even Logan shook his head . Her beauty was able to mesmerise everybody in this hall .
All the other 3 Emperors were more than 200 years old .
Everybody would think that she was a woman who lived for more than 100 years, but the truth was that her age was even lower than that of Logan . Nobody in this hall dared to underestimate this women . Rumours had it that she was a power hungry women who had chanced upon an incredible lucky chance and had managed to make it to the throne of her Empire .
"So, Emperor Loret, we all know what we are here for, since none of you are going to be straightforward about it, I might as well as start . " Isabela Ruth sighed .
"The question is… does the rumoured senior even exist?" She hesitated for a moment but gritted her teeth in apprehension and asked away .
There was a moment of silence in the hall . Everybody was tensed except Davis, he acted as if he didn't know what these people were talking about .
"Haha, Empress Ruth, the senior truly does exist but the thing is, he doesn't want to speak to me either . " Logan smiled confidently and bullshitted .
Everyone gasped .
"Can we possibly meet this senior?" Emperor Ross timidly asked, albeit everyone knew that it was an act .
"How is it possible? Senior would be very busy and probably wouldn't want to meet us lowly Emperors in the first place . If senior doesn't want to meet us, then we can't possibly force him either . " Logan answered calmly .
"Then do you know the place where senior is currently in seclusion?" Emperor Ashton asked .
"Who knows? I have no idea . " Logan grinned, his hands spread wide . He made it look like he knew the place but wouldn't tell them even if they asked .
'Damn, father, you sure are good at bullshitting!' Davis grinned .
The discussion went on for about 5 minutes . Seeing that the conversation isn't going anywhere, Emperor Ross decided to change the topic as he sighed .
"Ah . . leave it . I've already come this far, might as well make good relations with you Emperor Loret . "
Saying that, he presented a small treasure chest to Logan .
"It's my pleasure, Emperor Ross . " Logan nodded and accepted the gift graciously .
He opened it and was astonished to see a fruit in it . It was the Mystic Tyrant Fruit .
'Excellent! This could help Davis attain the Tyrant Physique!' Logan was truly pleased .
"I'm glad to see that you are glad with it, Emperor Loret . " Emperor Ross said .
After that, Emperor Claymore and Empress Ruth gave their gifts, but they were lower in quality to the Mystic Tyrant Fruit . From this, it can be seen the Ross Empire was atleast sincere in their motive to make friends with the Loret Empire .
"Hoho? What's wrong Emperor Ashton? Why are you still not giving your gift? Don't tell me you forgot to bring one?" Emperor Ross sneered .
Emperor Aston narrowed his eyes . One could tell that Emperor Ross was spot on . He was a selfish person . He didn't think that Emperor Ross would give out a valuable gift, he didn't want to offer a valuable gift either, nor could he afford to lose in front of his fated enemy . He thought for a while and smiled at Logan .
"Emperor Logan, we all know that you only have one wife! Isn't that right?" Emperor Ashton smiled .
'Eh? I don't like where this conversation is going . ' Logan had a bad feeling about this .
