Second World Chapter 1055 1055. Falling Out

Chapter 1055 1055. Falling Out

At the center of Dritzuut, the capital of Liguritudum Realm, was a towering structure that looked like several colossal crystals stacked together. The structure's wall seemed translucent and its color constantly changing. Around the structure were smaller buildings with mushroom-shaped roofs. Their walls were also made from the same material as the crystal structure.
The structure was a palace. The seat of power for the Ethereal race in Liguritudum.
In the throne room inside this palace, several individuals were gathering.
"What do you wish to discuss?" An ethereal native was sitting on the throne. He was Igneos, the rebel prince who had conspired with Master to overthrow his father.
Before he was Master, accompanied by Master's five followers. Spring Crown, Wong, Ronald, Motherboard, and the elven woman who was also a heavenly enforcer. The elven woman was named Linda.
Master was level 63. Spring Crown was level 62. Wong and Ronald were both level 61. Motherboard and Linda were level 60. They were all considered above average because the average adventurer players were around level 57 and 59, with a small portion of experts at level 60.
Beside the throne, by Igneos' sides were two ethereal natives. One was a warrior garbed in heavy armor. The other wore an official dress.
The warrior was a level 75 rare elite named Chemos. The official was a level 55 special elite named Silph. Igneos himself was a level 60 rare elite.
Lining along the two sides of the throne room were ethereal soldiers. There were ten of them. Each was a level 60 special elite.
"When are we beginning our offensive?" Master asked.
"Watch your tone, outworlder! You are speaking to the ruler of the realm!" Chemos admonished Master.
Igneos waved for Chemos to calm down. He then said to Master, "I've told you many times already. We still need time to recuperate. Many officers who are loyal to my father had formed an underground resistance movement. If I send the army out, they will use the chance to strike. Until I get rid of them, we will have to delay our plan."
"That's a pity," Master uttered.
"It is, but we have to be patient. I share your desire to conquer this world, but it is not an endeavor that can be taken lightly," Igneos said.
"You misunderstood," Master said.
"What do you mean?" Igneos asked with a furrowed forehead.
"I didn't pity your decision of holding back. I pity that this is how far our cooperation goes. It is time to get rid of you."
"I'll have your tongue for this…!!" Chemos roared and brandished his weapon, a sawtooth greatsword.
"I'll have your lives!" Master uttered back. Two magic staffs suddenly appeared in his two hands. Two spell formations formed rapidly. He was dual-casting.
As he took action, his followers also did. All of them had been preparing to make a move.
Linda took out a magic scroll and activated it. The spell inside was Greater Dispel. Once the spell was released, the rune diagrams that were seen around the throne room were erased.
Spring Crown dashed to the left while Wong rushed to the right, sending ambushes to the guards on the two sides of the hall. Ronald's two revolvers were out and he shot both to the left and right. Motherboard, who was a bard, took out her rapier and violin before playing a song, buffing everyone.
The natives inside the hall were taken by surprise. They didn't expect these outworlders would suddenly turn hostile on them. These outworlders had frequented this throne room so often that there was never a suspicion about them.
After using the magic scroll, Linda, who was a druid, cast summon treant. Her spell was max-level, so three treants appeared.
Chemos and Silph came forward to protect Igneos. Silph cast a spell and conjured a lightning fence before them. Linda's three rushing treants slammed into the fence and were electrocuted. They received lightning damage and were paralyzed.
Igneos was extremely surprised by his allies' sudden hostility. He yelled, "Fools! Where do you think you are? Guards! Come and arrest these rebels!!"
However, no soldiers came into the throne room.
"Guards…!!!" Igneos yelled.
"Save your breath. No one is coming," Master said.
Master's spell formations were completed. A lesser angel appeared on his left. While on his right, a demon appeared.
It was not the lesser demon from the Warlock's spell. This demon had a female body similar to the lesser demon, but her horns were larger than a lesser demon's. Her skin was also more scaly and occasionally emitted flames. Her wings appeared to be constantly on fire.
Master could summon a demon because his Warlock class had changed to Prime Demonologist, a first-class special class. The first spell of this class was Summon Demon.
Master then cast another spell, Cancel Magic. The lightning fence that was blocking the three treants flickered before fizzling out.
"Betrayer!!" Chemos roared and rushed forward. His chainsaw greatsword spun and created a twister. The twister struck the three treants and carried them up high, slamming them into the ceiling high above.
The lesser angel threw her white flaming sword, while the demon pointed her palm and fired a continuous barrage of fiery missiles.
Chemos put her off-hand to the front. An imaginary shield appeared. All the demon's and the lesser angel's attacks were blocked by the shield. Chemos received no damage. He was a level 75 rare elite, these two summoned creatures meant nothing to him. He continued rushing forward at Master without slowing down at all.
"Give me your life as atonement!" Chemos yelled as he made a jump attack.
Master didn't back away from the intimidating native. The magic staff on his left hand had disappeared and was replaced by a companion token. The token shone brightly and a large armored ethereal appeared before him just as Chemos' chainsaw greatsword came swinging down.
The newly summoned ethereal held a large glaive. He swung the weapon and it clashed hard with Chemos' chainsaw greatsword. The collision sent both of them a few steps back.
Chemos looked at his adversary in consternation. The strength this ethereal demonstrated was not weaker than his. He was even more shocked after using his Inspect.
Master's companion was a level 65 Mythical grade.
