Chapter 2097
Author: Marina Vittori
The Hall of Gods, with approval from Artea, arranged a meeting of influential leaders from various nations. This collaboration, if fruitful, would pave the way for future gatherings of a similar nature.

"I can just ignore the representative from Glorian as long as they don't get under my skin," Willem remarked, lifting his wine glass and savoring it quietly.

After brief introductions and getting acquainted, the attendees engaged in casual conversations.

As time passed, the clock struck 8:30 pm, half an hour past the agreed-upon time. Still, there was no sign of the Glorian delegation.

While the other powerful nations refrained from openly criticizing, discontent was visible on their faces. They arrived promptly for this significant gathering, anxious not to miss any crucial information.

However, the Glorians had the nerve to show up late—not just a few minutes late, but a considerable delay of half an hour, as if it didn't matter.

Artea, as the world's leading nation with abunda

    The Gilded Chamber stood in the heart of the inner city. It sold valuable items such as panaceas, artifact weapons, and rare martial arts manuscripts.Only dignitaries and martial arts experts ever stepped through its doors. Ordinary people couldn't afford to glance at the price tags, let alone buy anything.Inside, Cassius Hawke, an elderly man with gray hair, lounged comfortably in a reclining chair as he listened to music. He held a small metal flask in one hand and occasionally took a sip.At that moment, a luxury car screeched to a stop at the entrance, leaving long black streaks across the stone pavement.Before the vehicle had even stopped, Matthias opened the door and jumped out. The second he walked into the Gilded Chamber, he started issuing commands."Get your chief out here! I have something important to discuss," he barked."Looks like no one told you how things work around here," Cassius said coolly, not even looking at him.He stayed reclined in the chair with his

    Neville sprang into action after receiving the order. He quickly rallied his troops toward Matthias' estate for rescue and backup.Matthias wasn't in the mood to continue chatting. His face was grim as he strode toward the exit."Your Highness, please stay," Seamus called out suddenly."Uncle Seamus, something urgent has happened at home. Whatever it is, it'll have to wait," Matthias said impatiently. Whoever dared to start a massacre in his estate wasn't walking away alive."Calm down. I'm sure you don't want to walk straight into a trap," Seamus warned."A trap?" Matthias frowned. "What do you mean by that?""Think about it. You have no feud with the Hall of Gods, so why would they send their royal god to cause chaos in your estate? Don't you find that strange?" Seamus said evenly."I'll get my answers after I capture Zeus," Matthias spat, gritting his teeth."Your Highness, I must warn you that apart from the elusive Supreme leader of the Hall of Gods, Zeus is the undisput

    At dusk, Matthias and Seamus sat across from each other in the Mosey mansion. They were locked in an intense game of strategy. The terrain model between them had become a battlefield, and each move was met with a calculated counter. Anders stood beside them as he silently observed their game without interrupting.Eventually, the game ended after Seamus placed a white flag in the terrain model and conceded defeat."Your Highness, your grasp of warfare is truly remarkable," he said. "Your tactics are sharp, unpredictable—almost otherworldly. There's simply no defending against them. I've always considered myself a strategist, but clearly, I'm nowhere near your level."He chuckled and shook his head, then took the white towel the maid handed over and slowly wiped his fingers."You flatter me, Uncle Seamus. It was just a lucky break, that's all," Matthias replied humbly.Though he was born into royalty, Matthias never dared to assert himself in Seamus' presence. After all, Seamus

    At noon the following day, Zeus and Hera were playing a game of chess.Suddenly, a middle-aged man hurried into the room. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Zeus and Lady Hera. We've located Logan."Zeus and Hera looked up at once."Oh? You found him? Where is he?" Zeus asked."This morning, two groups of mysterious guests showed up at the Hevetica Club downtown, which is under Hall of Gods territory. During their conversation, they mentioned Logan's name. According to them, he's recovering from injuries in some important figure's private chamber.""Injuries?" Zeus and Hera exchanged a glance and nodded.Logan might've won his fight against Poseidon, but he must've taken a serious hit. No wonder he's been off the radar. It turned out that he had gone into hiding to recover."Any idea who this important figure is?" Zeus asked."Those people looked strong. Our scouts didn't dare get too close, so they couldn't hear everything clearly. I came to report right away to avoid tippi

    The moonlight was veiled by thick clouds that night.After returning to his mansion, Nathaniel was plotting how to saddle Matthias with the explosive threat posed by Zeus and Hera.He chose Matthias over Tristan because Matthias commanded the largest power base. With his military background and strong followers, he was the perfect candidate to deal with the two royal gods from the Hall of Gods. Nathaniel hoped they would destroy each other in a deadly struggle, allowing him to swoop in and reap the rewards.After mulling it over, he stood up and gave his order. "Tell Bamon Niles, Wane Brutson, and Cronus Liam to meet me in the study in an hour.""Yes, Your Highness," the guard at the door responded and promptly left the room.An hour later, the three men arrived one after another. They were Nathaniel's most trusted advisors—sharp, dependable, and always ready with a plan."Greetings, Your Highness."The trio entered together and greeted Nathaniel with practiced respect."Plea

    "Find a scapegoat?" Nathaniel asked.He looked confused. He didn't understand what Cynthia meant. "Could you explain what you mean, Mother?""Think about it. If your enemies are too powerful to deal with, why not let the royal gods from the Hall of Gods handle them?" Cynthia explained.She smiled slyly and added, "Your brothers, for example. Or any other thorns in your side."Nathaniel perked up, and a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. "That's brilliant, Mother. I see it now."He had been so frantic earlier that he hadn't seen the bigger picture. The royal gods of the Hall of Gods arriving at his doorstep wasn't just a threat but an opportunity.If he played it right, Nathaniel could use the Hall of Gods to eliminate his enemies. It wouldn't just resolve the crisis, but it'd also keep him on good terms with the West Lucozian monarchy.He could let the royal gods handle the dirty work while clearing his path to the throne. This wasn't just killing two birds with one s
