[VRMMO] Chaos Doctor-Chapter 457 - 456 – Problematic meeting.

[Current location: Vampire Royal Castle]

"Well then, ladies and gentlemen." – said 'Kid' as he sat down on his throne, right next to the massive table where countless vampires and Phantasia had gathered.

"You all know why the meeting was called."

"Our kingdom… Or it may even be called our 'empire', has grown tremendously."

"Our nation has expended in more than one way."

"The underground empire we had been working for months, it has expanded to the point where we have several settlement underground, across this small continent."

"Not only that, but the parts of the holy empire became parts of our nation."

"And to top if all of, the number of our kin has increased so much, that we…"

"Okay. Screw it."

"In the nutshell, we are strong."

"We have expended and grew in numbers so much that the people are scared of us."

"Not only that, but thanks to that bastard right there, by the name of Phantasia, our military power of our kind had evolved."

"Yes…. We really did evolved." – said the elderly vampire with cane.

(Honestly, many of us were skeptical about him… Including me…. But now we straight up can't ignore his achievements.) – thought the elderly vampire.

"The course of action, isn't it?" – asked the elderly vampire.

"Exactly." – said 'Kid'.

"I'm going to say this from the get go."

"We were nobodies."

"We were not somebodies who could change things around in this world."

"But now?"

"People fear us."

"They respect us."

"They want to be by our side."

"Or want to destroy us."

"Organization?"

"Heh."

"If somebody don't know, they gave us a LOT of stuff after we had destroyed the empire."

"And I'm not talking about some 'GOOD JOB HERE IS A REWARD'."

"A 'HAPPY GIFT', no."

"They gave us some solid stuff.'"

"They were grateful to us and made sure we were rewarded no matter what."

"Not only that!"

"But the whole idea with 'GIVING' the organization a huge chunk of the empire territory? Was the best idea."

"Not only we were able to make sure that none of these bastards would get it, but we also strengthened our relationship with the organization itself."

"So, for those who don't understand it."

"Our word now carries far more value than any other faction that are fully part of the organizing."

"Right now, we are the top figures within the organization."

"…"

"So yeah."

"We are strong."

"But obviously that doesn't mean that we can slack off."

"As you know, we decided to be less active for few months in order to control and properly expand our new kingdom."

"We grew our numbers."

"Our factories."

"And all the shit."

"…"

"But obviously, we were not the only ones growing stronger."

"General Kruger? If you may?"

"Yes, your majesty." – replied the elderly vampire general.

"As you know, after the war with the empire ended, the dragon clans of fire, light and nature have betrayed us."

"However, the fire dragons were only used as the tools by the two traitors, which did pissed off the fire dragons."

"The fire dragons aimed to take the revenge on the two clans that had just turned them into their tools…. But they were met with defeat."

"The fire dragon clan has been exterminated."

"It seems they died a fool's death."

"The water, darkness and earth dragons clans are also now trying to defeat the two traitor dragons WITH the support from the organization… But they had failed."

"Next are the spirits…. Their own military power has grown way too much, to the point they had already destroyed several demonic and holy churches that stood in their way."

"And finally, there is hell." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"The god of war and conquest had forced factions of hell to work with each other… And this in turn caused the hell to conquer a continent of Porijin."

"In short, there are 3 targets."

"The traitorous dragons."

"The spirits."

"And the hell."

"As the things are going, both spirits and hell realms will keep getting stronger with each passing moment."

"While the dragons… We don't know too much about them, expect for the fact that they became extremely powerful."

"We also don't know what the remaining dragon clans will do."

"Will they join us?"

"Or the traitors?"

"And that is the point of our meeting."

"What should we do?"

"I will be honest with you all." – said 'Kid'.

"Things are not looking good."

"We may had became a powerful figure, but in the meantime, so did the others."

"There is also the heaven, who we obviously can't leave alone… But at the same time, it is better if we do leave them alone for the time being."

"Since we can use them."

"They will obviously keep fighting everybody, so… Everything works out for us in that regard."

"But, as of right now?"

"We need to take down all 3 of these figures."

"But from the looks of things, it will be impossible to deal with all 3."

"So, here is what we need to discuss."

"Which war should we join."

"And before you even ask."

"I'm not only talking about the danger here, but also benefits."

"Truth to be told, the dragons can be consider as the foes on the weaker end." – said Phantasia who suddenly spoke up.

"However, even though the dragon clans have rotted away, their materials are still top notch."

"Exactly." – said the younger vampire general with eyepatch.

"If I may your majesty."

"We have means of securing rare materials."

"We have means of crafting rare materials."

"But if I'm honest…. We may at one point came at the problematic point."

"The more we try to expand our military."

"The more materials we will use up."

"The more kin we create."

"The more weapons we will use up to give them all enough weapons."

"And if you want to continue research further, you need to acquire variety of different materials." – said Phantasia.

"If we were to join the war and straight up turn the traitor dragon clans into our farms where we can harvest materials from them."

"A dragon farm… I like the idea." – said the smiling elderly vampire nobleman.

"Yes… It is good idea…. But if we were to do that, we would end up possible fucked." – replied Phantasia.

"?" – the vampires stared confused at the undead abomination.

"What do you mean by that?" – asked the teenage looking vampire noblewoman with white hair.

"Well, think it through the perspective of our foes." – said Phantasia.

"The vampires became way too big of 'annoyance' and letting them become any stronger would definitely become a massive problem."

"And if the vampires could obtain some extremely rare materials OR even possible set up a farm where they can obtain them nonstop."

"Wouldn't you want to prevent it from happening at all cost?"

"Attacking the dragons would be most beneficial for us all."

"But at the same time, it may provoke attack from somebody else."

"And it could either turn into a situation where we will be stuck in the three way war."

"Or the new enemy may join the dragon's side."

"…"

"I see." – said the older vampire general.

"In short, somebody may expect our move and try to make sure we wouldn't archive our goal."

"…"

"Then again, we need materials." – said the vampire general with eye patch.

"Shouldn't either demons or spirits have one? We can loot what remains of them." – said the noblewoman with a fan.

"No. We would need rough materials." – said the teenage looking noblewoman.

"There is also the fact that demons and spirits are definitely much deadlier foes than dragons…. Which would mean that securing the materials would take much longer as well." – said the elderly vampire with cane.

"…"

Phantasia suddenly raised his hand.

"Can I speak?" – asked Phantasia.

"Sure. Go ahead." – replied 'Kid'.

"…"

"First thing first." – said Phantasia.

"Due to the personal reasons as well as research, I won't be able to participate in the frontlines for some time."

"This may also include my right and left hand."

"However, the construction of the two Sky Behemoth ships is producing smoothly."

"The ships will be ready soon."

"But remember!"

"We need to play it safe!"

"These ships maybe one of the strongest weapons we possess."

"And the enemy is fully wary of that."

"They will try to get rid of them no matter what."

"And please be wary."

"They maybe our strongest weapons."

"But that doesn't mean it is invisible."

<<Honestly speaking?>>

<<The whole meeting was a disaster.>>

<<The vampire faction became too powerful and now nobody was willing to look away from us.>>

<<EVERYBODY was paying attention to us.>>

<<Right now, the vampires needs materials above everything else.>>

<<High tier materials.>>

<<Rare materials.>>

<<Specific materials.>>

<<All sorts of shit.>>

<<But the problem was that we didn't knew how to secure them.>>

<<Vampires…. Well, here is a problem.>>

<<They had been expanding way too much.>>

<<Not only their armies, but their kingdoms and population.>>

<<They straight up used all the shit we have and obtained from the war without even thinking twice.>>

<<True, it did allowed us to evolve and shit.>>

<<But at the rate we are using up the materials? We will run out of stuff.>>

<<And the funny part is?>>

<<We can't stop.>>

<<We may appear strong at the first glace.>>

<<But that is only because vampires rely heavily on the machines I've made.>>

<<And Sky Behemoth?! This is a fucking flying dungeon for god sake!>>

<<Do you really think that just a "fortune" will cover its production entire cost?!>>

<<And now they went and made 2 more of these.>>

<<It wasn't really a bad idea or anything, since they do give more than enough value.>>

<<But if the vampires want to keep up their growth.>>

<<They need to secure new source of materials.>>

<<And better if that do that soon.>>

<<Since from what I'm seeing on the internet?>>

<<Yeah… Things will again get chaotic.>>

<<The tournament is coming.>>
