Free Web NovelChapter 121: Chapter 115: The Four Emperors
And he was sweating.
Dean immediately teleported into the Dean’s office. The muscular Dean, Nico, and Quinn stared at him in shock. He opened portals, and four more people appeared there—a woman and four men.
The Dean and Quinn were even more shocked. They immediately placed their right fists on their hearts and said, "We greet the Supreme Commander and the Four Emperors." ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
The woman, the Western Empress, asked, "Dean, what is the meaning of this?"
Nico and Quinn weren’t that surprised to hear her address the Supreme Commander by his first name. It was no secret that the five of them were great friends. But Dean had crossed a line kidnapping them like this.
Dean replied, "Hey, Diana, it’s good to see you too."
Another man said, "Dean, cut the crap. Tell us why we’re here. Does it have something to do with the Finals tomorrow?"
The one who asked this was the Eastern Emperor, Chandragupta Maurya IV.
Dean sighed and said, "It does."
The Northern Emperor asked, "Oh, so now you want to tell us something? Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t tell us anything about the boys?"
The Southern Emperor was silent, but he, too, wanted to hear what Dean had to say. Dean, on the other hand, knew he had to give them something. Because if he didn’t, the boys were going to get themselves killed during the Finals.
Of course, what none of them considered was Nico and Quinn’s feelings. The two of them were under immense pressure. Their backs were covered with cold sweat. But they were also curious.
Who were these boys? And why was even the Supreme Commander so concerned about them?
Yes, it was true that Aurevion had become a huge deal, but not to this extent. Not to the point that the Supreme Commander would get involved. Not to the point that he would involve the Four Emperors as well.
Dean said, "I cannot say much. But the boys are the old man’s descendants."
Diana asked, "Uncle Leonel’s descendants?"
Dean nodded and continued, "He confirmed it himself. And it doesn’t end there. Due to a freak accident, they are like his sons."
Bjorn Thorsson, the Northern Emperor, asked, "That doesn’t make any sense."
Dean replied, "I meant their bloodlines. Their blood is pure enough that they could easily be mistaken as his sons. It’s higher than the current Head of House Vitali."
Ramses XI, the Southern Emperor, asked, "I’m sure you didn’t call us here just to tell us that."
He was the only one of them who still looked calm.
Dean replied, "You’re right. I’ve met and trained the boys. They are extremely talented. And they still work very hard."
Lightning flashed in Bjorn’s eyes as he asked angrily, "Did you call us here just to brag?"
Ramses said, "Let him finish."
Dean said, "Thank you, Ramses. As I was saying, they are extremely talented and they work very hard. But here comes the problem. They are borderline maniacs."
Chandragupta asked, "What do you mean?"
Dean replied, "Chandra, you know me. I have killed millions on the battlefield, but the shit that they come up with, especially Zeke... it sometimes scares even me. They seem to have inherited the ’Mad’ from Mad Immortal a bit too perfectly."
Diana asked, "And you’re telling us this because...?"
Dean replied, "Because I don’t want you to kill them tomorrow."
The four of them asked at the same time, "Huh?"
Dean said, "They have a plan for tomorrow. And if I don’t warn you now, you might end up killing them."
Ramses asked, "What do you mean?"
Dean said, "Ramses, you’re extremely fond of Amen, right?"
Ramses replied, "I am. I named him after my father myself. And if everything goes well, he will be my successor."
Dean continued, "The rest of you are in similar situations. You have sent your successors. And what would you do if you sensed a threat to their lives?"
Ramses replied, "Resolve it."
Dean said, "Exactly. Tomorrow, I don’t want you to resolve it."
The four of them stared at him. Even Ramses, who was the calmest of them all, had narrowed his eyes.
He asked, "Dean, explain." freewёbnoνel.com
Dean then proceeded to tell them what the boys had planned for the Finals. Instantly, their auras changed. Nico and Quinn started sweating even more. It was as if the mana inside them had frozen. Even breathing became difficult.
Dean solidified the space in front of them as a barrier. They gasped, freed from the suppressive aura that the Four Emperors emitted. Dean also unleashed his aura upon the four of them to calm them down. Although he was only one Grade higher than them, it still seemed like an insurmountable mountain to them.
Chandra calmed down the quickest. His eyes became golden, and his expression became serene. Then Ramses, Diana, and finally Bjorn also calmed down.
Dean said, "I know that this sounds insane, and you don’t trust the kids. So I’m asking you to trust me instead. Trust your friend. Please. Also, you’d be doing your own descendants a huge favor."
Diana snapped, "Dean, we might have agreed with you to not kill the boys, but don’t go too far."
Dean snapped back, "Oh, please. Has your authority blinded you? Your descendants are arrogant beyond imagination. And you all know the consequences of unbridled arrogance, especially you, Diana."
Dean regretted the words as soon as they left his mouth. Before he could apologize, Diana had already grabbed his throat. He felt strength leaving his body. Diana was using her affinity.
She got in his face and asked, "How dare you say those words to me?"
Bjorn and Chandra pulled her back while Ramses said, "You went too far, Dean."
Dean replied, "I’m sorry, Diana. I shouldn’t have said that."
Bjorn said, "You’re not completely wrong, but what gives those boys the right to discipline our children?"
Dean replied, "Their strength. Do they need anything more? After all, it’s not like I’m asking you to give them a handicap, am I?"
