Chapter 237 - Chapter 238: Blegree Kingdom

Inside the royal meeting chamber of the Blegree Kingdom—

King Udera sat at the head of a long table.

Around him were the kingdom's highest authorities:

Defense Minister Jagan,

Law Minister Kekai,

Intelligence Minister Huta,

Event Minister Pai,

Finance Minister Fina,

Chief Architect Mahu,

Commanders Futa, Nara, and Woruru,

and Affairs Minister Chaka.

The atmosphere was serious.

Udera spoke first.

"As you all know… the alliance meeting will be held soon."

Everyone nodded.

"I've decided the schedule," he continued calmly.

"On the first day, all guests will arrive and rest. That evening, we will host a grand banquet."

"The second day will be the official meeting—followed by a night party."

"And on the third day… all rulers will return to their kingdoms."

Pai nodded. "Understood. But… what if something unexpected happens?"

"The responsibility falls on the Defense Minister," Udera replied.

"And the safety of our guests will be handled by Commanders Futa, Nara, and Woruru… along with their battalions."

Everyone acknowledged.

Jagan spoke next.

"If, by chance, a problem arises… what are our orders?"

Udera leaned back slightly.

"Act according to the situation… and the individual involved."

"…Yes, my king."

"The meeting will be held in the Great Alahiba Mansion," Udera continued.

"The party will take place in the palace."

"And our guests will stay at the Narda Hotel."

Pai nodded. "Understood."

"This is the first official gathering of this alliance," Udera said firmly.

"And it's being hosted in our kingdom."

"There must be no flaws."

"Law Minister and Affairs Minister—you will stay with me during the meeting and party."

"Mahu—you are responsible for preparing both the venue and accommodations."

Everyone responded in unison—

"Yes, my king."

"Huta," Udera continued, "you will send invitations to all alliance kingdoms."

"And ensure no one brings unauthorized weapons."

"Also keep a close watch on our criminals. I don't want any disturbances."

"As you command."

Udera's expression grew serious.

"Some new kingdoms may attend… seeking to join the alliance."

"We don't know their intentions."

"So be fully prepared."

"…Understood!"

Udera stood up.

"Then this meeting is adjourned."

A Few Days Later — Shin Kingdom

The palace courtyard—

Several helicopters stood ready.

Inside them—

Bit, Precious, R. Kizu, Samman… and elite soldiers.

Soon—

WHUMM—WHUMM—WHUMM—

The helicopters rose into the sky.

Secret Sky City

On a vast open ground—

10–15 massive dragons stood waiting.

Soldiers mounted them.

Alongside them—

Grass, Priya, Lama, and Gesha took their positions.

Above all—

A larger dragon descended.

Seated upon it—

King Rental.

With a powerful roar—

The dragon army took flight.

Gazakil Kingdom

A convoy of 20–25 vehicles moved through a dense forest.

Inside one of them—

King Backtion sat calmly.

Blegree Kingdom — Konhua City Border

An open border, marked only by fencing.

King Udera stood there—

Alongside Queen Ashi.

With them—

Jagan, and Commanders Futa, Nara, and Woruru.

Ashi asked,

"Is everything prepared?"

"Yes, my queen," Jagan replied.

"Good," she said with a faint smile.

"This will be my first meeting with other rulers… since our kingdoms merged."

Udera nodded.

"After our marriage and the merging of Blue and Green territories… you haven't attended any external meetings."

"…I'm curious," Ashi said.

"To see that Goblin king… the ruler of Secret Sky City."

Jagan added,

"I've also heard that the Shin Kingdom has made recent changes… new weapons… and a new army."

"…Is that so?" Udera murmured. "Interesting."

"Well… that kingdom has always been special to Secret Sky City."

"And why is that?" Ashi asked.

"…Perhaps because their current king was chosen by them."

"…That could be the reason."

Suddenly—

Udera narrowed his eyes.

"…They're here."

A convoy of cars approached—

Stopping before them.

King Backtion stepped out.

"I didn't expect you to personally receive me," he said.

"With your queen, no less."

"Haha… not just for you," Udera replied.

"All our guests are special."

"…Then I'll stay as well," Backtion said. "I'd like to greet the others."

"As you wish."

Suddenly—

Commander Nara pointed toward the sky.

"…What is that?"

Everyone looked up—

And froze.

A formation of dragons approached from afar.

"…Dragons?!" Udera tensed. "An attack?!"

"…No," Backtion said with a smile.

"That's the protection army of King Rental."

Ashi stepped forward, stunned.

"A dragon army…"

"…So this is the power of Secret Sky City."

Backtion thought silently—

No… you still don't understand what that city truly is…

The dragons roared—

ROOOAR—!!

They descended.

One by one—

Landing with overwhelming presence.

King Rental stepped down first.

Followed by Grass, Gesha, Priya, and Lama.

Their soldiers formed behind them.

"Greetings, King Udera," Rental said calmly.

"I am Rental, King of Secret Sky City."

"Welcome," Udera replied.

"I am Udera, King of Blegree Kingdom."

"And this is my wife, Queen Ashi."

He began introductions.

Rental nodded.

"And these are my companions—Grass, one of my generals…"

"Gesha, my head secretary…"

"Priya, leader of the Dragon Corps…"

"And Lama, leader of the Red and White Spiders."

Greetings were exchanged.

"This is my first time meeting you all," Udera said.

"Same for us," Priya replied.

Grass suddenly noticed someone.

"Oh? King Backtion—you're already here?"

"I arrived just before you," Backtion replied.

"I see…"

Lama crossed her arms.

"So… why are we still standing here?"

Ashi stepped forward.

"Please proceed inside. Your accommodations are ready."

"We still have other guests to receive."

"Commanders Nara and Woruru will escort you."

They stepped forward.

"Also," Ashi added,

"No weapons or armies are allowed inside."

"You may bring a few officials—but no guards."

"Your safety is our responsibility."

Rental nodded.

"That's fine. But I'll stay here… to receive the remaining rulers."

Backtion smirked.

"I said the same thing earlier."

"…Then we'll wait together."

At that moment—

THUB-THUB-THUB-THUB—

A new sound echoed from the sky.

Helicopters.

They approached rapidly—

WHUMM—WHUMM—WHUMM—

Landing nearby.

From within—

Bit, Precious, R. Kizu, Samman, and elite guards stepped out.

Bit walked forward.

"Greetings, everyone."

"Hello," they responded.

Rental and his group glanced at Precious—

Then nodded.

Precious returned the gesture silently.

"So… who are they?" Rental asked.

"I recognize R. Kizu."

"Yes," R. Kizu replied.

Bit introduced them.

"This is my nephew—Precious Fiz."

"This is Vice General Samman."

"And this is Mayank, head of my personal guards."

Greetings were exchanged.

But Backtion—

Was frozen.

What is happening…?

Why is Lord Precious here…?

No—how is he the nephew of King Bit?!

Before he could process further—

Ashi spoke.

"Everything is fine, King Bit… but may I ask—"

"Why bring a child to such an important meeting?"

Her tone carried subtle arrogance.

Bit replied calmly—

With a sharp edge.

"There's no rule against it."

"…Is there?"

Rental answered,

"No."

"…Then why does it bother you, Queen Ashi?" Bit asked.

"…Oh no," she quickly corrected herself.

"I was just curious."

"…I see."

Bit turned.

"Let's go."

Udera raised a hand.

"Not yet. We're still waiting for other guests."

"…Other guests?" Bit frowned.

"All alliance members are already here."

"They're not official yet," Rental said.

"But depending on this meeting…"

"They might become part of the alliance."

"…I see."

More helicopters arrived.

Udera, Backtion, and Rental stepped forward—

Receiving the remaining guests.

And soon—

The rulers of multiple kingdoms—

All gathered—

Before finally moving toward the city.
