After everything settled, the group suddenly became serious. However, Reve couldn't help but be nervous.
He could feel their every stare on him. In a single moment, they had focused on him as intensely as the sun.
Suddenly, Reve noticed something he hadn't before. Apart from the figures on the seats, there were other people positioned behind some of the figures like Reve.
'Perhaps, they are just like me, students,' thought Reve.
The big man voiced out his evaluation, "Hmmmm…..I see potential. Circe likes picking good pebbles."
The others nodded in affirmation. Everything about Reve was revealed before their eyes. They could even link him to Amethyst.
Instead of allowing Reve to explain, the big man snapped his fingers, and all the seats moved. They were arranged in a circle formation with nothing but a glass table in the middle.
The big man then introduced themselves, "Welcome, student of Circe. Your name?"
"Reve---Reve Amethyst," responded Reve.
He was still not used to his last name.
The big man nodded, "You are in the presence of the Gehenna Order. We are responsible for representing the beast continent. However, we can only do that in the shadow. Tell me, do you about the "demon prince" title?"
"Yes," easily answered Reve.
Different from the demon lords, the demon princes and queens were titles given to magical creatures that had reached a peak level of strength, which was approximately Level 300 to Level 400.
This was the absolute peak of Arcadia and beyond that were beings that neared the strength of a god.
However, demon lords were a term used in the Era of Heroes. It mainly referred to beings that wanted to bring chaos to the world. In most cases, demon lords were far weaker than demon princes.
'I wonder why they couldn't just use "demon princesses" instead of "demon queens"...on second thought, maybe it is for the best,' joked Reve.
He could now see the reason for the weird female term.
The big man nodded his head again and spoke, "Good. In the Gehenna Order, we are all demon princes and above. Our side objective is to raise other demon princes. Which I'm guessing is why you are here….to observe us. It is your privilege."
"Yes," Reve answered even though he wasn't asked anything.
If his brain still served him right, the big man meant he should just stand back and observe how demon princes behaved. He shouldn't disrupt their process, or better yet, speak!
This was obviously why the others like him didn't utter a single word. In a sense, it was a way of establishing hierarchy and Reve wouldn't oppose that. Just listening to them speak should serve quite the experience.
"Good. Now, let's conclude the introduction. I'm Met," said the man.
Inscribed on the lower side of his chair was an inversed pentagram along with an ancient marking that read, "The Horned King."
Going with the flow, the next in line introduced himself, "I go by Khirah."
It was the blue-skinned man with two horns. However, unlike Met, he didn't have any ancient markings on his chair except for an inscribed demon mask.
After he was done, the next one took one, "At ease, you can call Aello."
Despite his noble demeanor, Reve found it hard to flow with it. That was because the man was the one that tried fighting with the young lady but got scared!
On his seat, coupled with a lightning fork, his ancient marking read, "Stormwalker."
"Oho. You failed again, Little Ael. Reve, I'm your master's close friend, Fye," coyly smiled the ample woman.
Her dress couldn't be more revealing. There was a hole in the middle which showed her navel and the piercing that was on it. There were also piercings spotted on her nose and left ear.
On her chair were the picture of a half-eaten sun and the ancient markings, "The Red Maiden".
She was quickly pushed out of the picture by a very excited person.
It was the young lady who seemed to be oozing with too much positive energy, "Hehe. I'm Yevhe."
Inscribed on her seat was the picture of a blue cocoon. It was accompanied by two ancient markings "She sits on the moon" and "Queen of Wings".
It was weird to see two ancient titles on only her seat but he wasn't in a position to ask about it.
The next person among them was the one that was getting negative karma from Reve.
Zev grinned wildly, "We have met, already. Haha. Just call me Zev."
Just like the impression he gave, the picture on his seat was that of a howling moon. His title was "The White Wolf".
After Zev was Circe, but the latter didn't introduce herself. Her symbol was that of a black raven and her title was something Reve was used to: "The Immortal Witch".
"With that gone, Let's proceed," guided Met.
He stretched his hands at the table and a big tablet rose from it. The tablet bent horizontally. A blue hologram shot out.
The hologram showed a three-dimensional picture of a statue. There were no features on the statue, just a faceless statue.
Met led the meeting, "I'm sure we all sensed it a year two years ago. The departure of the one that cohabited with us."
Aello turned serious as he confessed, "I wasn't sure about it. I mean it could just be him toying with us. Isn't that what he had done for millennials?"
Khirah countered him, "Why would he toy with us now, out of all times? You know, he never even toyed with us actively. It was more like we toyed with ourselves."
"Why are we even worried about a single god? It is not like any good thing would come out of it," said Zev.
Fye sighed as Yevhe told with a smile on her face, "Hehe, the problem is that he is not just "one single god". He is the most evasive face in all eras."
"I agree. Most temples from the dark era even bear his statue. This is clearly a being above godhood. His every affair is as important as the stars are to Arcadia," cautioned Met.
"Look at us worrying about the whereabouts of an unknown being? Oh, Khaos, where art thou?" mused Zev.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
