Somewhere in a cold and dark cave, several figures stood on pillars facing each other with a heavy atmosphere filling the air. Enormous mana energy was radiated just by their gathering in one place.
The tense atmosphere grew even more when one of the figures gathered began to speak.
" The vessel of Shadow Monarch is more dangerous than we thought. "
A tall old man with blue skin known as the Monarch of Frost, Sillad spoke revealing the facts he knew.
" Didn't you say there was no vessel that could contain his full power and that was also the same reason why the Dragon King couldn't remain on earth? "
Another old man known as the King of Transfiguration, Yogumunt, responded to what Sillad said.
" I thought that man has found his vessel "
A beautiful woman with a youthful appearance was known as the Plague King, Querehsha added.
" Indeed, I have found an individual that suitable to be his vessel, but it still requires some preparation considering how persistent the vessel is " (Yogumunt)
" Let's put that aside, the Shadow Monarch vessel I saw back then was more dangerous than the Fragment of Brilliant Light and I plan to take care of it. Are you willing to help me? "
" By fighting him, do you just want to get yourself killed? Even though he's just a vessel, your opponent is one of the strongest among the 9 Monarchs. Why not wait for the Monarch of Destruction to arrive? "
A handsome, clearly non-human figure known as the Monarch of the Iron Body, Tarnak also expressed his opinion on Sillad's proposal.
" Even though we are Monarchs, can we only wait for the Dragon King? The strength of the five of us is more than enough to fight him. Our chance to defeat the Shadow Monarch is now, while he is still human. "
" What proof is there that he is still human? "
" This "
Sillad took out a dagger that had been stuck in his back in response to the question of a muscular figure who looked like a wild beast known as the Monarch of Fangs, Rakan.
" He put poison on his dagger. This is not something the Shadow Monarch would do. "
" poison, huh...
If Shadow Monarch could fully control his human body, he wouldn't do such tricks " (Querehsha)
" Will you join me? " (Sillad)
" Count me out of this " (Tarnak)
" I also don't want to end up the same as the Monarch of White Flames " (Yogumunt)
After conveying their refusal, a gate was formed behind Tarnak and Yogumunt. Meanwhile, Rakan looked at them sarcastically before finally quipping at them.
" You coward " (Rakan)
" I didn't retreat without reason. You should know what happened to the Monarch of White Flame after he was defeated. I don't want to be caught by the Authority Shadow Monarch and suffer through the 'Eternal Slumber' " (Tarnak)
" I don't think he can make us in our original form his servants " (Rakan)
" It seems like the Shadow Monarch and the Architect are working together, now he can make a clone of us. I don't want to turn into a tool in his world. " (Tarnak)
" Is that your only reason? " (Sillad)
" I just want a definite result " (Tarnak)
" I won't stop you, but you will miss the part where we finished off the Shadow Monarch " (Sillad)
