Visser currently standing inside the Unity Hall, he is separated from Princess Starlight and her attendants as she has to greet other important guests who arrive earlier in her capacity as the Princess of Saint Dragon Mountains and a host.

The Unity Hall is a big and spacious hall, it was mostly built from wood material with exquisite Saint Dragon design, while the hall interiors simply illuminated by candles, lanterns, and the sunlight from the outside through the windows, so the inside is a little bit dark and it gives solemn and ancient feelings that were completely different from any human palaces Visser visited before.

He was conversing with Alderion who chose to stay with him. and there are other people gathered nearby, not only dragons and humans but also from other races such as the white elves, dark elves, lizardman, beastmans, and even dwarves mingled around while Saint Dragons servants attending them.

Most of these people are Saint Rank experts, Visser can see their numbers almost a staggering 30 people.

30 Saint Rank experts in one place, this number represents at least 80% of total Saint Rank experts that exist in the entire Greysia.

This is the first time for Visser seeing that.

This is not a trivial matter. All of them combined have the power to dominate all of Greysia and nothing can stop them.

But of course, their intention of coming here is not to do that, because just like Visser, all of them are The Covenant signatories and they were here under urgent summoning of the Saint Dragon Mountains.

Most of these Saint Rank experts are important people from many countries, races, and organizations, but there are some lone individuals who are not affiliated with any entities.

Visser knew several of them as he had already met them in the past, and they also recognized Visser as they greeted him earlier when he just arrives at the hall.

When Visser and Alderion were in the middle of a conversation, 2 people from the crowds began walking toward their direction.

Both 2 people are females, one is a kind looking middle age woman while the other one is young and beautiful.

These 2 female is wearing an almost identical black purple dress with a long skirt that hides their legs.

"Greetings Lord Prefect and Lord Gallard, excuse us for the interruption." The middle age woman greets both Visser and Alderion with a smile covering her lips.

"It's fine Lady Isola, nice to meet you again."

"Yes yes... it's nice to meet friends from afar."

Both Visser and Alderion also return the middle age lady greetings, and of course, both of them recognize her.

This middle age lady is Isola Regios, she is the Regios Clan Leader and also a Saint Rank expert.

Visser knew that the clan is very mysterious and low profile when conducting activities, but the clan is famous because of their precious pill productions, although there isn't much contact between Astoria and the Regios both Visser and Isola already met once in the past.

"And who is that young lady behind you, by the way?." Alderion is curious about the young lady who's following Isola.

Visser also set his gaze straight at the young lady.

This young lady is a very beautiful lady with medium length pink hair and brown eyes, she has a slender and well proportional body, she is also really tall than the average woman, her height is around 178 cm.

Overall she gave the feeling of an intelligent but naive woman.

"Hehehe this is my granddaughter, Clara,... come, girl, say hello to these seniors," said Isola as she beckoned the young lady to greet the old Visser and Alderion.

Then the young lady stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "It's a pleasure to meet you, my lords, my name is Clara Regios, please take care of me in the future." and she introduced herself humbly, she didn't dare to be impolite in front of these Saint Rank seniors.

"It's a pleasure to meet you too, young lady, i hope you enjoyed our humble places." and Alderion greets her too.

"Thank you Lord Prefect, for the hospitality." Clara bowed again as she thanked Alderion.

Meanwhile, Visser is still looking at her silently.

He found that this young lady is a Level 1 Grandmaster, but he also felt she was extremely young.

Visser cannot help but ask, "I'm sorry Lady Clara, if i may ask, how old are you?."

Clara was confused, while Isola knew the reason Visser was asking that, but she didn't say anything, instead, she was only smiling proudly.

"i'm 24 years old currently, Lord Gallard." although she's confused, she still answers her age clearly as she felt that this Saint Rank senior from Astoria was only curious about her.

Visser and Alderion were shocked as they heard that, and began looking at Isola.

24 years old Grandmaster.

It must be known that almost average warriors across the realm were stuck at the threshold between Fighter rank and Super Warrior rank, unable to breakthrough in their entire life, while a young warrior who able reach Super Warrior ranks when they are still at the age of 20 can already be called a genius and will be admired anywhere, and yet this young 24 years old lady in front of Visser right now is already a Grandmaster.

Visser himself was already at his late 30 when he became a Grandmaster back in the past, and this is already truly unbelievable things to happen, because most Grandmaster or Grand Mages individual ages are at 60-70 years old while average peoples lifespan is only 150 years, this is also applied to many races besides human, even the elves, as they also more or less have the same lifespan.

Although it cannot be said the same to the Dragons and Demon Beast as the majority of them have much longer lifespans.

It's already shocking enough for many people when the news of a 30 years old Grand Mages emerged from the Astoria Empire.

But now, there is another young Grandmaster finally revealed, and she's only 24 years old, although Visser never heard of this young lady before, he thinks that it is not surprising because she originates from Regios Clan who always hide inside their island without almost no contact with the rest of the realm.

That's why Clara's name is still unknown, but if the news about her spread out, it will definitely cause a huge storm in the realm.

Isola is really satisfied when, looking at Visser and Alderion shocked expression, she knows how valuable a young Grandmaster is, not to mention that this young Grandmaster is her own granddaughter, it only makes her more proud and happy.

She has great confidence that her granddaughter will become a mighty Saint Rank in the future, judging from her talent and potential, this is why the Regios Clan put utmost importance on Clara, as the Clan really hoped they would have another Saint expert in their ranks.

The existence of a Saint Rank expert is extremely important for many countries, organizations, and races because they can become a powerful boost for their own survival or in order to compete with other major powers in Greysia Realm geopolitics.

The 2 old veteran Saint Rank can only shake their heads and sighing.

"Eishh... as expected of Regios Clan,..they were truly filled with 'a crouching tiger, hidden dragon' huh." Visser thought Regios Clan really had an unfathomable foundation and legacies to nurture this kind of talent.

While Alderion also thinks that humans are the most potential race in cultivation compared to other races, because although their bodies really averages without any innate special trait that other races have, their frightening population numbers and adaptability along with more complex socialities gives them a better edge and unique advantage in cultivation, and the resulting lot's of talented and genius rising in almost every generation.

"Hahah thank you Lord Visser, although our Clara is talented, there is still a long way for her to reach the peak, besides she just broke through to the Grandmaster rank recently, so she still needs to stabilize her strength first, but did the Saint Dragons also have a genius too right?, that Starlight Princess who just entered the hall for example..." Isola continues the conversation.

"That's right...hahah our Saint Dragons also have the kind Princess Starlight, so we definitely have a bright future."

"Ummm, i've also heard about a genius older sister in Astoria too...i'd really like to meet her."

"Heh, the Princess also said the same thing earlier, and i'm gonna said the same word again, i'm sure all 3 of you will become good friends."

"heheh thank you Lord Gallard." Clara thanked Visser joyfully.

"By the way, Prefect Alderion, this summoning...it's too discussed about that... heavenly thunder event isn't?." Isola was changing the topic, but her voice was rather trembling when she mentioned certain events.

The other 3 people became quiet as they heard Isola words. They also began pondering with worried faces.

The Heavenly Divine Thunder Events.

That was the name which the people of Greysia to described the events.

Approximately 1 month ago, a huge thunder soared and piercing the skies while accompanied by massive images of the azure dragon and loud roar booming the air during the middle of the day when everything is peaceful just before it happens.

This terrifying event, which only lasted for 10 minutes, brought extreme fear to everyone's hearts that day, even Saint Rank individuals were not excluded.

Causing many Demons Beast to unsettle and start rampaging all over the place as they were extremely afraid.

Many reports even mentioned that some people and animals were frightened to death because of it, few of them are even experts at Grandmaster rank.

An event that can make Grandmaster rank experts scared to death?

This is truly no joke, and that's how frightening that thunder event is.

People didn't know the reason of why it happened at all, some said that it was the signal of the end times, while others said that the gods are angry and dissatisfied with the mortals, nobody knows exactly.

But people mostly said it was a bad premonition.

Some large countries and organizations are also making their own inquiries about the event or exchanging information about it, but there was no progress at all even until now.

"Eehem...yes, the main topic to discuss at the gathering is about that event." Alderion stuttering replies.

"Y..ye..yes,..that thunder is really 'gulp' scary..i wonder what's causing it." Clara joined the conversation with a slightly pale face.

"That Azure Dragon images....is it something that was related with dragons, Alderion?." Visser asking the possibilities,

"No definitely not...there is no relation between us and that dragon image back then."

"What makes you so sure of it?." Isola asked.

"Although we have a legend..or an old myth about us dragon having an ancient ancestor which is an Azure Divine Dragon, but that was just a story, after all, it can be brought as a fact... Besides, we also have our own internal inquiry that reaches a temporary conjecture about that thunder, it may even be mentioned during the gathering later."

"Which is??."

"....That there is a possibility that heavenly thunder is an attack skill or a technique." Alderion is seriously answering.

"WHAT!!!." "HUHH!." Isola and Visser were frozen after they heard Alderion words, while Clara had a shocked expression on her face.

"An attack ...skill, but how??."

"That's right, how much mana you need to execute that kind of skill."

Thinking that massive thunder is an attack skill can only be described as crazy and nuts.

For Isola and Visser because they were very proficient in many skills and have experienced many battles, that's why they knew how enormous the power that needs to be able to execute that kind of impossible skill.

Except maybe with the power of God.

Alderion shakes his head: "We don't know, we have no other explanation beyond that."

Both Isola and Visser fell silent while continuing to wonder after hearing Alderion.

"Lord Prefect, what's that about the legend you said earlier, can you tell me more?." Clara curiously asked about the Azure Dragon legend.

"Hmmm it's like this, in summary, in ancient times the Azure Dragon was a companion of a really powerful expert that has the power to rival the gods, and both of them together, battling and vanquishing a great evil that wanted to destroy the world and all of that mumbo jumbo....it's useless anyway. you know,..A fake fantasy story."

"Oh...but i think it's a great story though, I've never heard it before."

"That's because it is dumb fairy tales, even our own people won't believe it... anyway ..."

The 4 people continued chatting for a while.

Creak.

Creak.

Before the hall massive inner door suddenly opened, and a person wearing a grandeur blue robe with Saint Dragons insignia came from the room while standing near the open door.

This person is one of the Saint Dragons Blue Envoy.

The Saint Dragon Mountains Envoy position is categorized by 3 robe color, which is from bottom to the top, white, green, and blue, the Envoy position can only be attained by Grandmaster rank dragons, and they are separated in 3 colors depending on their Grandmaster level.

Level 1 to 3 Grandmaster is White Envoy, and Level 4 and 5 is Green Envoy, while only Level 6 Grandmaster can become a Blue Envoy.

"My Lords.. My Ladies, the Covenant gathering will begin shortly inside this meeting room behind me, so please follow the attendants as they guide you to your designated seats inside." This Blue Envoy is flawlessly announcing the imminent gathering.

Finally, the guests start to enter the room under the guides of the attendants.

The meeting room is spacious enough to be filled with hundreds of people, and there is an old looking huge wooden round tables that have hundreds of seats inside too.

Visser also entered the room as he separated from other people he converses with before as he was guided to a different seat.

"This is your designated seat, my lord." the attendant showed Visser seats which were located near the room door.

Visser simply nods to the attendant and starts sitting in his seats, but he is suddenly surprised by the roundtable material, as he recognizes its wood properties after seeing it closely.

This unremarkable wooden table was in fact created from Florens Wood.

Then Visser tried to recall his memories of this valuable wood.

Florens Wood originally was part of Florens Tree, a tree that can only be found in Evergreen Dominion.

Evergreen Dominion is a state built by the White Elves, this state is located on Evergreen Island almost 8000 km northwest of Dawn Continent, although they have isolation policy, they still permitted minimal trade with other foreign countries, and also allow other races to visit the island, and because the White Elves themselves had friendly attitudes toward others, there is almost no racial discrimination happening there.

Evergreen Dominion is a monarchy and is currently ruled by a female sovereign called the Evergreen Queen, she's a powerful Arch Mages rank expert who has already ruled the island for almost 200 years.

Dominion is also a member of The Covenant Treaty, and that's why they're sending female Saint Rank representatives in this summoning, who currently also flabbergasted as she obviously recognizes the Florens Wood that was used in the roundtables.

Florens Wood is extremely valuable, its flexibility and durability in mana circulation, making it an excellent material for creating magic staff and other magic items.

It was a material that was highly sought by mages around the realm.

But because the Florens Tree itself is almost extinct on Evergreen Island and their growing period is extremely long, thus, the trading of this Floren's Wood has been completely prohibited by the Dominion since 300 years ago.

Now, this divine wood is extremely scarce in markets, and if one exists then its price will be enormously jubilant, already at the level of protected treasure for the people who possess it.

"What's wrong Ostok Vanquisher?? Never seen Florens Wood before? hmph!"

Suddenly, a not so friendly voice came from a man sitting at Visser left side. The man is also calling Visser nickname.

The nickname Visser gained during the Ostia Succession War 60 years ago, when he successfully commanding the entire Astoria expeditionary forces and defeating the Laurentia Empire armies in Ostok Continent.

But he always hated that nickname, never allowing anyone close to calling him by that name.

"Tch...Sword King, can't stop blabbering your mouth for just a second huh?" Visser unhappily replies to the man who was called the Sword King.

This Sword King, who sits beside Visser, is a man with a tall body and radiated by great strength, his hair is long and dark brown colored which has already become partially white due to his old age, his sitting posture also straight and confident, while his armor is rugged and big but it fits with his huge body.

This man knew he was powerful, and he flaunts it for the whole world to see.

Sword King's original name is Raul Jimenez, he's a very strong Saint Rank expert and famous because of his sword technique, it is said that he is the strongest swordsman in the world, that is why he received the nickname Sword King.

He also created the Swords Arena, which is a famous institute that nurtures a warrior who mainly focused on swords, He also serves as the Heavenly Protector of the Kingdom of Valencia in eastern sides of Dawn Continent, where his own Swords Arena is located.

"Heh." Raul the Sword King only smirked as he heard Visser reply.

Visser didn't have any enmity with the Sword King, and neither did Raul, but they disliked each other since the first they've met in the past, because of the warrior rivalry it seems.

And both men began ignoring each other afterward.

The sound of heavy footsteps came from outside of the room, and people on the inside began looking towards the door as they heard footsteps.

Groups of people began entering the room, the groups consisted, several armored guards, Dragons Envoys, and 2 Prefect.

They began walking towards the other side of the table where the seats designated for the leader of the gathering are located.

Everyone had their sights directed at the groups, and the center of the attention was not the group itself, but the one who was being escorted by them.

The person who was being escorted is a man with beautiful appearance, actually, he cannot be called handsome, because although he was a man he has an extremely beautiful and youthful face full of vigor and vitality that is almost to the point of being feminine rather masculine.

With white shiny long hair that reached his waist, a tall slender body builds without any excessive muscle that faintly outlines by his white simple yet elegant robe, combining all of that he can be easily mistaken as a woman.

Not only that, his beautiful face can even make most women be ashamed and jealous of death.

But this man is a male and there is no doubt about it because when the man and his escorts finally arrive near the main leader seats, he begins welcoming the guest with his deep low pitch voice that is only unique to the male.

"Welcome everyone to the Saint Dragon Mountains, and we also like to thank you for answering the Covenant summons."

The man's voice is vibrating and echoing inside the hall, although he speaks with low volume and leisurely tone, but still makes everyone who hears it shivering.

They still didn't know who this beautiful man was, and no one among the guests had ever seen the man before.

"Gallard, i can't see his strength." Raul the Sword King suddenly spoke in a low, audible voice.

Visser who heard Raul started to recover his mind and began discerning the beautiful man himself, after a short while he too didn't see anything in the beautiful man.

Visser thought there are 2 possibilities, either the man is not cultivating at all which is impossible because the man is a dragon judging from 2 glorious looking golden horn on his forehead, while the other possibility is that the man is too strong for people like Visser or Raul to discover his strength.

'Too strong? But how strong he is?.' Visser thought as he tries to understand the beautiful man.

Visser who is a Level 2 Saint ranks himself is still able to find one of the Prefect strength that stand near the beautiful man, that Prefect has the strength of Level 6 Saint Rank.

Perhaps the beautiful man is stronger than that Level 6 Saint Prefect.

'Could it be that this man has reached a True Saint rank?.' a True Saint rank is a legendary rank, which not even a single person has achieved in the entire Greysia.

It is said if the person can break through to the True Saint Rank, they will become a person closest to god, they will have massive strength and more rich purer mana in their body resulting in a longer lifespan, some say a True Saint expert has the lifespan of 1000 years.

Visser has a frightening thought about this beautiful man is perhaps a True Saint expert.

'It can't be right??.' Visser mind starts to become dizzy, and his body trembles.

Other guests also think the exact same thing as Visser, and they also start to tremble too and shivering all over their bodies.

The beautiful man silently examined the guests with his clear blue eyes while smiling lightly.

"i believe every one of the guests here has never seen or known me before, and that is why I'd also want to introduce myself first."

The beautiful man stopped as he examined the crowds again.

The guests didn't know why, but they strangely anticipated the man's words.

The beautiful man finally opens his mouth again.

"My name is Avarion, i'm the 23rd and the current ruler of the Saint Dragons Mountains, it's a pleasure to meet all of you."

Hiss.

The entire hall is completely silent, and not even a single breathing sound can be heard after the introduction.
