Chapter 207: Plans and Messages

’I’ll have to promote the Skyking soon so he’ll have more subordinates. The Falcons will work well under him.’

Jason thought this while assigning ten of the Iron Bladed Falcons to Skyking as his new subordinates. Jason gave a mental order to Ragnar and told him to get off Skyking and Raya. Ragnar released another low growl and blew some hot air into their faces before he flapped his wings and took off into the sky! Raya screeched and started to go after him, and Skyking was about to join them, but Jason told him to stop.

Skyking realized a low cry of righteous annoyance when he realized that he wasn’t going to be able to beat Ragnar up, and Jason just told him that he would be able to fight Ragnar as much as he wanted inside the Alternate Dimension. Skyking bowed his head respectfully and Jason came over and ran his hand through his feathers while checking everything on his tab to make sure that they were okay. Jason then glanced at his stats tab.

Right now, the most important thing for Jason was to get more power, and after clearing this gate, three of Jason’s skills were already past the fifty percent mark. If Jason went on another Gate raid, then there was a high chance that he would be able to get into the SS Rank. But Jason knew that there were a lot of other things that needed to be done all at the same time. Not only did Jason need to begin preparing for the trip through the dimensions to reach the Lich, but he also needed to make sure that the BloodRaven guild was taken down so that he could get the [Banshee’s Tears].

Jason wasn’t going to allow any of these things to stop him from being able to accomplish the others, so Jason decided that he was going to divide and conquer. The most important thing now was to both get the [Banshee’s Tears] while also gaining strength, and since Jason’s subordinates had proven that they were more than capable of handling themselves against other beasts without his supervision, Jason was going to send them into an Orange Gate alone and see how well they performed.

’I’ll keep an eye on them using the [Eye of the King] and if I see that they need me to intervene, then I’ll get there quickly by using the [King’s Substitute]. That way I can focus on getting the [Banshee’s Tears] and then I’ll get ready to leave Earth to find the Lich.’

Jason came up with a plan to handle all of his responsibilities very quickly. Time was not on his side, and he didn’t want Gina to stay dead for any longer than she had to. Jason told Ragnar to come down to him while commanding his other subordinates to begin moving into the Alternate Dimension, and he called on Riyala and told her to get ready to leave. Riyala nodded while saying goodbye to the Falcons that she had been playing with, and Ragnar flew down to Jason and happily rubbed his head against Jason’s body.

Ragnar brought his neck down for Jason to get on and Jason climbed up first before helping Riyala to get up, and Ragnar took off towards the exit for them to return to Earth.

[Radagan]

[Castle of The Sovereign]

"What did you say?"

A rough voice echoed through a large throne room and made all the people standing in the room cower nervously from fear. The throne room was huge. It had large windows lining the walls on one side and all of them were covered with handcrafted golden drapes that glimmered in the light of the sun outside. The room itself was painted with a white and gold scheme to represent the royal family, and in the end of the room was a large golden throne standing at the top of a raised platform.

This room had been designed by the very first king of Radagan to belong to whoever the people of the country chose as their king. It was a symbol of respect, and only the King and those whom he permitted to enter were allowed to come in here. But things had changed ever since the coup that claimed the lives of most of the royal family.

The Sovereign of Radagan was a large man with a hard face and glaring eyes that would strike fear into the heart of any man. He had bulking muscles and a tall stature that made his combat abilities obvious to anyone that saw him. There were black scales on his cheek that traveled down his neck and toward his hands and feet as well. His eyes were a poison yellow that were slitted like lizards, and his teeth were jagged and pointed like individual blades.

He wore a black armor set that had been made from the hide of the former king’s wyvern. The killing of dragons and wyverns was considered sacrilege in Radagan, but the Sovereign didn’t care. He wore the hide both as a symbol of status as well as a reminder to everyone in the kingdom that he had taken the throne from the previous king by force and he was more than willing to kill anything in his path to achieve his ambitions.

This coup wasn’t the first war that the people of Radagan would face, but it was the first time that they would ever face a war that was initiated by one of their own, and that was why it was so difficult for anyone to stand in the way of the Sovereign. The Sovereign was not just a barbarian who wielded a sword and cut down anyone on his path, he was a charismatic leader as well as an extremely capable warrior. He had the army at his back and many of the younger and most ambitious members of the Dragon Riders rallied behind him since they believed that the Wyvern Riders were too weak to be the leaders of their world!

After taking charge of the throne, the Sovereign chased the Wyvern Riders away from the land surrounding the Royal capital and gave that land to the Dragon Riders and their familiars. There were hundreds of young dragons surrounding the Royal Capital and there was a larger black dragon that belonged to the Sovereign sitting at the top of the Royal Building.

Right now, the Sovereign was receiving a report from the messenger that he had sent to meet with the Phantoms. There were numerous noble men and women in the throne room with them, and all the noble men and women began to murmur in curiosity and confusion when they heard what the messenger just said. The Sovereign released a huff of smoke from his mouth before he said:

"Repeat what you just said."

The messenger felt a chill run down his spine from the pressure that his ruler was releasing! The Sovereign was so powerful that just his mana alone was enough to make anyone cower in his presence, and the messenger knew that if the Sovereign got angry then he could easily lose his life right then!

In truth, the Sovereign had never killed anyone unless he knew they had to die for his ambitions. He was a powerful man, but that didn’t mean he was a tyrant. That was one of the reasons why the Dragon Riders followed him to fight against their own people. But the messenger’s cowardice was starting to grate on the Sovereign’s nerves.
