I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1117: 17.44 Fourth Violet Star - Royal Court

Imperium Star,

In the Main Palace...

Under the orders of the Grand Marshal, Adjutant Kir von Giselle went straight to the Main Palace to report to the Imperial Emperor. What happened in Planet Terra had all been reported especially the changes that the zerg race possessed during the attack.

In the attack of the Zergs Race on Planet Terra, they learned that these Zerg now had the ability to use Stealth like assassins do. Theyʼve learned how to ambush humans which they would never do before. In short, their intelligence had been upgraded to the point they started acting like humans.

Adjutant Kir von Giselle reported, ”The attack on Planet Terra was unexpected. No one though there would be a Zerg Nest under the cliff of Planet Terra even the Molitary stationed on that Planet didnʼt know when and how long they had been there. But it is a fact that a Zerg King and an unborn Zerg Queen was found in that cliff. There are also a few dozens of General-ranked Zergs under itʼs command and these zerg all learned a unique ability to use Stealth. They can turn invisible until the final moment they attack.”

When Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian and his officials heard about this report, their faces all turned serious. They were already having a hard time fighting against their sheer number, now the Zerg had evolved their intelligence to be much closer to that one of a human. The danger this Insect Race brings has multiplied to the point their existence can utterly destroy any race.

The Emperor has spoken, ”Why did this Zerg suddenly have the ability to use such a unique ability only humans possessed? Did they start evolving in the same way as humans?”

”This Your Majesty this humble one can answer. Planet Terra was on the verge of destruction when we arrived. We were also blocked by the Zerg on our way to Planet Terra. Obviously, there is someone from the Zerg Race that wanted Planet Terra which was full of Sentient Beings of Nature.” Adjutant Kir von Giselle responded with courtesy to show to a royalty.

Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian already knew that Planet Terra is full of Sentient Beings especially the tree and plant type. But these beings are too powerful for humans to control. He had already heard different information about the events in Planet Terra from his youngest son and the Second Prince. Though the latter after reporting to him had escorted his fiance back to the Rosegard Clan to rest.

He already knew that those Sentient Beings would be controlled by the human regardless of their desires. So when he saw his subordinates wanted to have the Sentient Beings controlled by them, he could only shake his head in helplessness. Because he learned from Jace Green von Imperlian that the Sentient Beings in that place are capable of turning into their human form. It means that they are all at least S-ranked and above Sentient beings. If there is someone who can confront them without fear of death that would only be his elder brother, the Grand Marshal.

As expected some of the ministers and officials who didnʼt know the existence of Yara von Chrysalisʼs power started whispering sweet nothing in his ears.

”Your Majesty! This is our chance to enhance our strength!”

”Those Sentient Beings, we must make them ours!”

”Since the Zerg had been cleaned up from that place we should take this a chance to sign a contract with those Sentient Beings.”

”Your Majesty, please give us permission.”

A group of nobles lowered their heads towards the Emperor and most of them were from the Noble Faction who listened to the command of Nova Clan and other noble clans. Those who were under the Emperor himself were all waiting for a good show. They were already told that, it may be possible to sign a contract with Sentient Plants under A-class and below but for those above that level unless a high ranked Plant Ability user is with them those Sentient Plants would definitely kill them on the spot.

That was what Rozen, the Sentient Rose Plant of the youngest prince and Eve, the Sentient Poison Ivy in his majestyʼs body. They were already given a promise from their Emperor that he will try asking for the one who gave them those sentient plants to give a few more to them and they were happily waiting for it. As for those Sentient Beings above A-ranked on Planet Terra, going there is just them seeking death.

Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian looked at these nobles who couldnʼt even hide their greed especially the Nova Clan that supports the Crown Prince. Obviously, the Crown Prince heard about him and Jace Green possessing Sentient Plants in their possession and had always wanted one for himself.

The Crown Princeʼs thoughts, ʼI donʼt know if Christopher had signed a contract with Sentient Beings like the ones in Imperial Father and that stupid younger brother of mine. It was so hard to approach Yara von Chrysalis thanks to his Imperial Uncleʼs protection. Since he canʼt ask the brat, he can just take one for himself. The Planet Terra is under Gretel Clanʼs name but with the permission of his majesty, they should be able to get what he wanted.ʼ

Cain Nova von Imperlian spoke, ”Imperial Father, please give us permission to enter Planet Terra. This is indeed a chance for us to get stronger!”

The current Duke of the Gretel Clan is the eldest son of Nimbus von Gretel. He is Claudius von Gretel, an SS-ranked Adjudicator which was said to be stronger than his father. His feature were a mixed of his father and dadʼs appearance. So his face was a bit more refined than his fatherʼs thanks to his other dadʼs beauty.

Most of the members of the Mystical Butterfly Clan were born with androgynous features and the stronger their blood is the more delicate and refine their features are like Yara and Argus. Even though Zephyr is a hybrid, he had more blood from the Butterfly Clan than his human blood. So his children with Nimbus were more handsome than their father.

Claudius von Gretel, the eldest son and the current Duke of the Gretel Clan. Even though Gretel Clan is unaffiliated with the other Factions as someone from the Neutral side his strength is not weaker than that of the Nova Clan. They canʼt be bullied so easily that is why the Crown Prince was begging his Imperial Father to ask permission from this man. Only if the Emperor of the land requested it that the Gretel Clan cannot decline

What the Crown Prince didnʼt know is that after learning the connection of Yara von Chrysalis to the Gretel Clan that the Imperial Emperor had no power to command them. He is after all connected to the fated pair of his elder brother. Even though it wasnʼt announced to the world about their relationship, it can be said that the Gretel Clan is with the Grand Marshalʼs side thanks to his partner.

Cough.

Feeling a bit pressured, Emperor Cale glanced at the Duke Claudius von Gretel with a pleading pair of eyes making Claudius a bit dumbfounded. He already got a special message from his father from Planet Terra and even knows that his Dad had to use Rebirth Cocoon as he was killed while saving some children. He also knows that the one who killed all the Zerg on Planet Terra is his nephew, Yara von Chrysalis.

But what surprised him the most is that, the Grand Marshal is on their side and already knew about their bloodline as the Mystical Butterfly Clan. It was shocking that the Zerg hating Grand Marshal is willing to accept their mixed alien race only because of Yara. Though he did believe it himself but he trusted the words of his parents especially his dad, Zephyr von Gretel agreed to his fatherʼs words.

One should know how powerful his Dadʼs Spores are for detecting lies and moods of the target. Moreover, his spores are invisible and could hardly be avoided and detected by others. Since he told them that the Grand Marshal is on their side then he is definitely on their side. Of course, they also know the close relationship between the current Emperor and the Grand Marshal.

Because of this, Claudius is willing to give Emperor Cale a small favor with regards to Plant Terra. Anyway it is these people who were seeking death. Even as the owner of Planet Terra had no control over those Sentient Beings, those guys only listen to his nephew, Yara and maybe to his uncle-in-law, Argus Blues von Chrysalis who possessed the purest bloodline of the Butterfly Clan.

Claudius von Gretel took a step forward and slightly bowed his back towards the Emperor. He said, ”If His Majesty wishes to send people on Planet Terra this little one had a request.”

”My faithful Duke Gretel, tell this emperor your request. This Emperor will do his best to fulfill it.” Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian stated. The other heard it as an exchange for allowing people to enter Duke Gretelʼs Territory.

Claudius von Gretel said, ”If His Majesty would please ask those who would go in to sign a contract of life and death. Staying that whatever happened to them on Planet Terra had no connection to us, the Gretels.”

Everyone was startled by his words especially those who were planning on using this opportunity to drag down the Gretel Clan. They wanted to complain but the Emperor had already agreed on their behalf.

Emperor Cale said, ”Okay. This request shall be fulfilled.”

There were some who pushed the luck and spoke out, ”But your Majesty, isnʼt that a bit unfair. That land is under the name of the Gretels after all.”

”So you know it was unfair but you still requested this Emperor to ask permission to enter someone elseʼs territory. Didnʼt you want to go to Planet Terra so much? It is only right for the owner of the star to request something in exchange for allowing strangers in their land. Or is that that you werenʼt going to Planet Terra anymore?”

The Emperor showed a contemptuous gaze in his eyes as he looked at the nobles who were clattering to be allowed to go to Planet Terra and was now once again complaining. Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlianʼs gaze is directly saying to them that they shouldnʼt push their luck.

The Crown Prince stepped in for his faction and said, ”Imperial Father, please.so forgive them for saying as such. Planet Terra is still not our territory and we deemed it a ride to enter without the owner. Count Deen didnʼt mean anything about it?”

”Hmp! Only he knows what he really wanted. Since Duke Gretel allowed you to enter his star there is no need to ask him to accompany you in. Just sign the life and death contract. So if something really happened there there wouldnʼt be any annoying blaming incident to happen afterwards.” Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian said. ”Those who were preapring to leave for Planet Terra can go. Adjutant Kir von Giselle and Duke Claudius von Gretel, stay for a bit.”

”Yes, your majesty!”

The crowd in the Royal Court had dispersed. Most nobles had left the Throne Room while glancing at Duke Claudius von Gretel as if they wanted to eat him alive. They truly wanted the Gretel Clan to get involve as they were avoiding the Political Fighting in the Palace. They choose not to side with anyone despite the strength of Dukedom of their family making the other Duke Clan uncomfortable especially the Nova Clan who wanted to control this Star through the crown. This is why they had nurtured the Crown Prince with the best of their resources.

Unfortunately for them, Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian had no intention of continuing the Monarchy in Imperium Star. His other sons were not worth it and had no talent for it. The Crown Prince is too greedy and ambitious which would lead the Empire to ruins. The youngest prince, Jace Green von Imperlian wasnʼt interested in the throne as he he grew up in a small edge star. As for the Second Prince, he is more interested in coaxing his fiance and his fianceʼs clan than being interested in the throne.

Moreover, the Crown Prince is not allowed to seat on the throne. He would become another puppet emperor if the crown was given to him. It is better to abolish the whole Monarchy as the Grand Marshal had wanted.
