Chapter 169: She's a threat that must be killed
From all corners of the world, various representatives of kingdoms, empires, guilds, and more filled the roads leading to the Heaven Library Guild. They took roads carved on the ground, but also fly zone paths and even underground passages, for many races were that unique.
Soon, all of them crammed into the Madevin Metropolis.
It was quite a spectacular sight.
It was akin to a festival.
However, the tense mood around all visitors erased every carnival thought. People also understood that many threats had returned and threatened the world, so no one was actually in the mood for any festival. Common people simply gawked at many individuals while proper people greeted them.
Leon was in his house, looking at flying creatures with great interest.
Flanked by his women on a sofa, Leon was in quite a good mood. His business became famous from the very start, as people were in need of equipment. They were also interested in a new potion usage. With these two elements combined, and people's experiences against the new threats, which were many levels above expectations, people started buying Leon's items in bulk.
He needed to work harder to keep everyone satisfied, but Leon knew it was a time to be full of energy and stamina, as many races flowed into the capital.
"We'll be on a watch to ensure no one has any funny thoughts." Leon wondered, out of all those prominent races coming in, who would be the one to cause the chaos.
Peace Gathering was a perfect place to weaken humans and others. Moreover, the library here housed so many valuable pieces of information that Leon was as though one hundred percent convinced that someone would try to assault and conquer that zone.
"Can we watch others from our home?" Celes purred in satisfaction, inhaling her beloved's fragrance. She became even lazier after all her hard work. It seemed that she only wanted to be with Leon.
Louise was the same.
Leon laughed and shook his head. "We'll go for a walk."

A few days later, every representative settled in Madevin Metropolis.
Without any further ado, the Peace Gathering had begun. People one would never see together sat by a round table, waiting for the host to begin the talks.
Outside that vast room, everyone had their own guards. They had sent patrol around the gathering building, which was a vast three-flat mansion. The Heaven Library Guild had also scattered their members all around the metropolis, keeping the strongest pieces close to the gathering.
Leon was rather in the middle. He wasn't close to the main building but wasn't on the city's outskirts, either. Followed by his lovely companions, Leon walked as though he was on a stroll, often nodding to other guild members whose faces weren't at ease like his.
"Well, I think I was right." Leon looked at his beloveds, mysteriously smiling.
Celes, as the one who always kept track of their surroundings the best, nodded and sighed. She had already spotted interesting shadows brandishing their weapons at the guild members. Their hiding skills were quite superb, but it wasn't enough against the vampiress, whose skills had been sharpened by a lot of love and her experiences.
"Seems like we're in for a lot of fun…." Celes whispered.
Alexandra tensed, for she had sensed a dragon's presence as well.
"I'll notify others. Let's continue our walk and pinpoint as many threats as possible." Leon opened his system, clicked on the friends' tab, then contacted Madam Jasmin's trusted aide.
That man soon notified others and ordered the guild members to quietly and appropriately deal with hidden threats.
"Is Chaos Dragon here? I didn't expect him to be interested in this gathering… He hadn't finished his massacre in the spirit realm, and I saw people from that realm making their way to the gathering… I guess he wants them…" Leon narrowed his eyes and looked around for a dragon, alas, he hadn't found anyone.
Well, it wasn't like this battle was his battle.
He could help at most.
Of course, Leon would rather live in a world without a majority of people cowering in fear. And from what he saw, everyone was like that because of The Human Emperor, The Chaos Dragon, and The Death Lord. It'd be good if strong people could find a common language and work together to slowly erase those threats.
In the end, Leon was just one entity, and he had two lovely women by his side. Alexandra was his dragon maid — and that's all he had. He couldn't possibly decide the fate of the world nor fight alone against all those men and their forces.
But being separated from fate meant Leon could easily add his strength.
Thus, he patiently waited for the gathering to end and hear the news.
But then, the vast shadow flew over the capital. It was so wide that the whole capital became shrouded in darkness for a few seconds.
Leon raised his eyes and noticed The Black Dragon.
And then, he looked down, finding out that Alexandra was gone.
"He snatched her… and all dragons in this city." Celes quickly checked the situation. "He wants to anger The Chaos Dragon? Or is his goal to keep away dragons from this gathering?"
Leon didn't know what it exactly was.
But the loss of his dragon maid genuinely infuriated him.

At the same time, the talks between prominent figures suddenly halted.
"Winterborn King… The news of your sneaky plans has reached my ears." A man, clearly a human, smiled and locked his red eyes on the ice man.
Winterborn King didn't let anything flash in his eyes or appear on his face, though he was confused by that man's voice. "What plan?"
The man with red eyes chuckled and leaned closer to the table, soon supporting his head with his two hands. "You have a woman with yin physique in your ranks. A woman whose fate is to become a queen of humans with the peak humanity body!"
A silence ensued in the room, and all eyes fell on the ice man.
Knowing that lies would only put him at more disadvantage, the man's cold voice bypassed his lips and shocked everyone in the room. "Yes. She's shredded her humanity and become one of us."
"I fear she's a threat that must be killed."
Winterborn King's heart jumped with fear.
He feared what his wife would do if he actually allowed Snow Demoness to die.
