Silence.
Pin- Drop silence engulfed the entire universe at this moment as everyone read then re-read then re-re-read the message flashing in bold before their eyes.
' This can't be real ' was the first instinct that everyone had as they began to glance around their surroundings to look at other people's reactions to confirm whether or not this was just some elaborate prank.
Unfortunately, wherever they looked they only saw faces of individuals who were equally if not more shocked than they were themselves as they too were looking around to see if this was a prank.
' What the actual fuck? ' thought Vega Titus as just mere moments ago he was thinking along the lines of how Shakuni's ambitions to defeat the queen were nothing more than rubbish, yet just moments later he saw a universal notification stating that he had just defeated and enslaved the queen.
Vega stared at the notification long and hard and tried to find any inconsistencies that he could find in the system screen versus the actual system screen used to issue notifications but he could find none.
He then looked towards Max, who seemed to be smiling with his teeth out at reading this text which differed from the reaction of everyone else in the room who were flabbergasted.
Feeling lost and in crisis, he turned towards Regus Aurelius who seemed to be staring back at him with soulless eyes as even the monarch could not believe what in the absolute cajones was going on.
' I'll chop my balls off and change my gender- '
These were the exact words of Regus when Vega had asked him if Shakuni could defeat the queen and hence Vega's gaze now alternated between Regus and his manhood.
" That MADMAN! " Regus exclaimed as he slammed his fist over his throne, shattering the arm-rest as he stood up with a sense of urgency.
Having felt Vega's gaze wandering in the wrong direction, Regus was reminded of his own words and was burning red with shame.
Not willing to entertain the possibility of a gender change he decided to change the topic of discussion as fast as possible as he pointed towards Max and Vega and said " We are going to the Council Of Monarch's monument, any tier6 god who thinks that they can keep up with our speed can join us "
Max chuckled but said nothing, however, the rest of the council room was thrown into absolute disarray.
While they were busy talking about how to push back against Dracula's forces, one man had managed to conquer the governing body of the UNIVERSE and declared himself the supreme conqueror.
Naturally the meeting got severely derailed after this universe altering declaration.
Many tier6 lord's followed Regus as he took off for the Council Of Monarch's monument behind Vega and Max, however, it was clear from the get-go that maintaining the speed of those monsters would strain their divine essence reserves severely.

( Meanwhile at the Rajput mansion )
" Dad defeated the queen already? It hasn't even been a full four days since we left home- " Jack said in a surprised voice as he read the system notification for the first time in his life.
" I'm surprised it took him four days…. Isn't that incredibly sloppy? The man planned for this fight for like 12 years….. he should have done better " Kartikeya commented as if it were nothing, however, one look into his crazed eyes gave his true thoughts on how proud he was of his father away.
" Does this mean he can join us here? " Amy questioned excitedly as both Jake and Kartikeya suddenly turned gloomy.
Without Rudra, the two of them had been taking life in ' Enjoy ' mode with no training and lots of exploring in the past four days.
However, if that old man were to return them their hellish regiment would start all over again.
" Oh no, oh no no no no no, hell no! " Kartikeya exclaimed as he did not wish to give up the delicious taste of soda-pop that he had just began to relish.
" YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! " Naomi exclaimed as she entered the living room running in joy while still being in her kitchen apron as she threw herself at Amy in joy.
" Your father did it! He survived a fight with the queen! And went on to defeat her " Naomi exclaimed in relief as she giggled to her heart's relief.
Jake and Kartikeya could not help but laugh silly at all the excited girly noises that Amy and Naomi were making and if two girls were not enough a third one joined them in just a bathrobe.
" SISTER NAOMIIIIIIII " exclaimed Ruby in pure joy as she threw herself on to Naomi and Amy to join the group hug.
" Ah…. Women " Kartikeya exclaimed, flinging off a small tear that had formed in his eyes to see his mother and second mother looking so happy.
*SHHHHHHAAAARRRRRRR*
A loud noise interrupted the family's happy celebrations as a large ship suddenly landed in the family's backyard.
Jake and Kartikeya immediately brought out their weapons and were ready to fight any intruders when guildmaster Neatwit appeared out of the ship and screamed at the top of his voice
" COME ON NOW- WE CAN'T BE LATE FOR THIS SHIT, HOP ON ABOARD " he said as he urged everyone to quickly start boarding for they had to be at the council of monarchs monument within two hours.
" Oh, oh let me get dressed " Ruby exclaimed as she rushed to put on some clothes as the rest of the family happily rushed into Neatwit's ship.
Five minutes later as Ruby hopped onto the ship with drenching wet hair, Neatwit immediately ordered the crew to head at full-speed ahead towards the council building.
" This is going to be a legendary gathering…. " Neatwit said with a stupid bright smile on his face as he could not wait to see the faces of the other monarchs at the council now that Rudra was back!
