Bael Pov

I was now inside a room, where in the middle of it was a long table set with chairs on the opposite side and another set on the side.

Me and Volen's emissaries sat opposite to each other. On my side was Adrigal as well as Medusa while Volen had the Council members of their Council.

And middle of us sat king George and his two children beside him with Gowlard standing in the back, they acted as a mediator as. And since this was their territory, for now, they had the rights.

"Then, let us begin." George began.

"We have gathered here, to discuss the fate of Volen as well as the compensation they will provide to Gemmera as well as Orion."

"This is all a misunderstanding. Our army were simply doing military training and your kingdoms dared to declare this as an act of war." One of Volen's Councillor spoke.

"How thick skinned can you be to think that we would believe your baseless lies? It seems like you guys forgot that you were the ones to have declared war on us."
Prince Robert countered to the stupid allegations.

Honestly, its like they are so desperate that they are now trying to Gaslight us.

This back and forth went on for a few minutes as we remained silent. Well, Medusa and Adrigal were fuming but chose to remain quiet since I was not doing anything yet.

Finally, one of the councilors spoke something that made Adrigal angry.

"Besides, it was this Lady here  who commands the dragons. This Bael is just a figure head for the true demon Lord."

*Phfft!?* What?! Hahaha, it seems they hit their head or something. Saying that I am just acting to be a demon Lord and in reality Adrigal is the real one?

[In their small brains this is the best explanation of how much strength Adrigal has as well as the number of dragons she commands.]

'I know, but they should know that I am called the Dragon OverLord for a reason right?'

[I cannot calculate the Null Brain IQ they have.]

'Makes sense.'

"What did you say you worm!?" A dark malice filled aura was leaked from Adrigal as she directed it towards the one who just spoke.

"Adrigal, calm down."

"But My Lord! How dare he insult you? He should pay the price." Adrigal said as she still glared at Him, but lowered her aura as per my command.

"It's fine, they will die soon."
This seems to calm her down completely as she sat down but still glaring at the Councilman, who was shaking till now.

It is safe to say, she didn't use her true aura else that guy might have died instantly.
Regardless, they will die soon  so I don't care what their final words will be.

"Volen has tried to question my rule, my powers as well as my Title as a Demon Lord.
This cannot be justified with a simple mistake, therefore I propose, the whole of Volen will be under my rule from now on. Let it witness what my rule is like, since it has already seen my power."

"..A wise choice Lord Bael. I agree to this, Gemmera has no trouble with DemonLord Bael annexing Volen. " After a short contemplation, George spoke.

"But-!!" Another Councillor tried to speak up but he was interrupted by Medusa's glare.

"You insects have no say in what your future will be now. It was your own fault for targeting Lord Bael and now that you have lost, you worms still dare to oppose?"
Said Medusa with venom in her voice.
She clearly disliked these guys.
