Supreme Harem God System

"So Alcimus? I heard my Kingdom gave quite a trouble to your dynasty? Don't worry though, I already gave an earful to that silly child.

Hahaha~ He was just playing around because he was a little bored.

He didn't think he would cause you so much trouble just by playing around, I apologize on his behalf."

Herms spoke with a small smile on his face.

Alcimus narrowed his eyes.

Although Herms was apologizing, even a child could tell that he was being sarcastic.

Rather than apologizing, he was making fun of Alcimus, saying that his child, the King of the Solid Earth Kingdom made trouble for the Woods Dynasty just by playing around.

He was indirectly calling the Woods Dynasty weak.

"Mhm, I apologize as well, we shouldn't have taken this little prank of yours so seriously, you lost 4 King Stage Cultivators, saddening indeed."

Alcimus replied with a small smile on his face.

"That's true, you guys took it this little prank so seriously that you even begged the Skyfall Kingdom to help you. That was indeed something I did not expect, but I guess the situation did get a little desperate for you."

Herms replied.

The two old men were smiling at each other, however, the words they spoke were filled with thorns.

Nux couldn't help but scrunch his nose.

The scene was quite disgusting to see.

He then glanced at Astaria, the woman seemed to be enjoying this little war, it looked like she was only missing popcorn and a soda, if she had that, she would simply sit back on her seat, seeing this, Nux sighed and shook his head.

"Hmmm? Why am I getting a feeling that you are salty about the Skyfall Kingdom helping us?" Alcimus frowned.

"I mean, all of us know the Solid Earth Kingdom and the Skadi's are quite close. They didn't help you? Is there some sort of problem between the two of you?"

Alcimus questioned.

"Of course not. They knew we don't need help for something little like that, that's why they didn't make a move."

Herms just smiled.

"Oh? It didn't look like that. From what I heard, the soldiers you sent ran away quite desperately."

Alcimus smiled.

And when he saw the frown that had appeared on Herms's face, his smile widened.

He was definitely winning this battle,

"Well, what can I do? Our men just didn't expect your soldiers to be so strong, of course, it was only after a few days passed by did we realize that we were indeed correct.

It was not your soldiers that were strong, they were weak as usual, your kingdom just begged for help."

Herms replied and Alcimus narrowed his eyes.

His expression was now unsightly, however, he quickly controlled his emotions,

"It was no-"

However, before Alcimus could complete his sentence, the doors of the room opened again and Riona and Eardwolf walked in.

Seeing them walking into the room, Alcimus and Herms, both frowned and turned toward Riona,

"Why is Amletus not here?"

The two of them completely ignored Eardwolf, but it wasn't their fault either. The way Riona carried herself far exceeded Eardwolf, any sane person would think she was the actual reader there.

Of course, the two Emperors knew that it wasn't actually the case and the real King was Eardwolf, but honestly, they couldn't care less about foolish things like this.

Eardwolf knew that, therefore, he didn't react.

Not that he could have reacted anyway.

"Lord Amletus is sick. He cannot come."

Riona walked into the room, sat on Amletus's seat, and replied calmly.

"You know the consequences of not attending the Emperor's Meet, correct?"

"The Skadi Kingdom will pay the price," Riona replied.

At the same time, she glanced at Herms.

The old man frowned, Riona suddenly closed her eyes, then she glanced at Alcimus.

Herms understood.

An Emperor not attending the Emperors' Meet, the price a Nation has to pay for rejecting to join the Emperors' meet was very heavy, even the 4 Largest Nations couldn't afford it without seeing a decent fall in their treasury.

In truth, the treasury was the least of their problem.

The matters with Emperors involved are usually hidden behind many layers.

If an Emperor does not join the Emperors' Meet, the other Nations would automatically believe that the Emperor has passed away and now that Nation does not have a protector.

It could be catastrophic for any nation.

Therefore, an Emperor not joining the Emperors' Meet has never happened before.

Herms already realized that Amletus was acting strangely, he hadn't even replied to the letter he sent him before.

He already had some sort of inkling, however, with Riona's confirmation, he was now sure.

Amletus was killed.

And the culprit was this Alcimus bastard. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

Of course, it was a grave offense, however, proving it was another task.

With their protector gone, the Skadis have lost their value.

Although Riona, the Skadi's representative was sitting here, this meeting was now between the 3 Nations only.

There is a high chance that the Skyfall Kingdom and the Woods Dynasty are allies.

Without Skadi, the Solid Earth Kingdom is left alone.

There is no way Herms can prove that Alcimus killed Amletus when the judges are not on his side.

Herms's expression turned solemn.

He glanced at both Alcimus and Astaria.

Astaria still looked as unbothered as ever, Alcimus on the other hand, had a frown on his face as well.

'Heh, to think he would continue this little act even now.'

Herms's expression turned cold.

Seeing the change in his expression, Riona smiled inwardly.

'It is done.'

She did what she was here for.

Now all she has to do is protect herself.

Nux smiled, seeing him, Astaria placed her hands on the table and spoke,

"Alright, since everyone is here, let us not waste any more time and start the 104th Emperors' Meet."

The others turned serious as well.

Astaria then turned towards Alcimus and questioned,

"Alcimus Woods, you were the one who is hosting this Meet, I would let you take the initiative."

Astaria's signal was clear,

Start with whatever you have prepared.

Alcimus's expression changed as he nodded and then glanced at Herms.
