Planet Drake in the Kingdom
This is the planet of the Drake family, the family ranked first among the eight leading families in the Milky Way. Drake's family is not the same as any other family. They were not only the oldest, but they were also the ones with the strongest backgrounds.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that even if the other seven families cooperated, they would not be opponents of the Drake family. That's the Drake family. Even if they were also among the eight leading families, their strength was not at the same level as the other seven families.
Drake is a massive living planet, and is many times larger than the sun. The larger the planet, the greater its gravitational pull. If ordinary Earthlings were placed on Planet Drake, they would not even last a second.
To live a normal life on Planet Drake, one had to be on par with the God Rank on Earth. Which meant ordinary people on Planet Drake would all be legendary God Rankers if they were on Earth. This is the difference between Earth and the large planets that live in the Milky Way.
The current head of the Drake family, Gunnar Drake, was not only the head of the Milky Way Battle Primo Institution at first, but he was also the chosen and strongest one in the Royal Region. In the fight between the nine institutions, Gunnar even claimed to be able to defeat eight other institutions.
He wanted to fight against the other eight family heads by himself. He was an influential figure among the younger generation in the Royal Region, making countless young people admire him.
Outside of Planet Drake, several black-robed men suddenly appeared at this moment.
“Our target this time is the Drake family. According to our informants, they are stronger than our previous targets. It is also the first power with the Final Stage Infinity Rank. The soldiers of the Sangruil Sinners will try to bind. We have to be careful and not make mistakes. The Drake family is an important part of our plan, so we have to beat them.” said one of the men in black robes.
“Ya, the other Master.” immediately replied.
“Come we go.”
Later, the men head to Planet Drake. The black-robed man looked forward and perfectly dodged all the patrol boats on Planet Drake. The patrol boats were unable to detect them while at this level.
Once they were on Planet Drake, they arrived at the ancestral land where the Grandmaster of the Drake family lived in seclusion following the information they had obtained. They're approaching the ancestral land of the Drake family. Then they heard a voice before they entered.
"Where are you all from?
What are you guys doing here?
This is the ancestral land and sacred land of the Drake family. If you have no business here, please leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."
"I want to meet Ragnar!" The black-robed man leading said.
“Who are you? Do you think you can see Grandmaster Ragnar just because you want to?
Get rid of it now if you know what's good for you. If you take another step forward, don't blame me for killing you all."
The black-robed man said nothing.
Boom!
The black-robed man exuded his End Stage Infinity Rank energy, causing the ancestral ground of the Drake family to shake.
“S-Who are you?”
The black-robed man replied, “Sangruil!”
When the person from the Drake family heard that, his heart shook, and he exclaimed, ”Sangruil Sinners?”
“We are Sangruil people, not Sangruil Sinners.” the black-robed man snarled.
Clearly, the word 'sinners‘ sparked his anger. In the past, Sangruil was on the same level as the Milky Way Empire. They controlled half of the Milky Way, and were extremely wealthy. Now, they're hiding everywhere like stray dogs.
They had suffered so many grievances and endured so much pain for so many years only to regain the glory of Sangruil.
This was all so that they could stand on top of the Milky Way and trample over the Milky Way Empire. That day is not far away now.
“You Sangruil Sinners?“
"I say again, we are Rulers of Sangruilian.” firmly the black-robed man again.
At this moment, he was boiling. If he was not in the ancestral land of the Drake family and wanted to tie the Drake family into their plan, he would have killed this person.
"You are Sangruil Sinners. What do you mean by Ruler Sangruilians? The only Sovereign in the Milky Way is the Empire. You guys are just stray dogs.” said the man from the Drake family after he calmed down.
“Do you beg to die?” The black-robed man gritted his teeth and said word for word.
His voice sounded like it was from hell.
'How dare he insult Sangruil like that? No matter who he was, he had to die!'
After which, the black-robed man waved his hand, and a cold black light shot out. Although it was just an ordinary attack, he was an Infinity Rank Late Stage, so an average person would not be able to resist even an ordinary attack from him.
But this attack that should have caused a lot of noise did not produce any sound. It was as if it disappeared without a trace into the void. The black-robed man knew his master was here.
The only person who could block his attacks without making a sound was someone of his level. There are many grandmasters in the Drake family. But according to his information, only one was at the Infinity Rank Final Stage, and that was Ragnar. Indeed, he heard another voice.
"Ragnar, since we're already here, we don't plan to leave easily. Come out and meet us.” said the black-robed man.
"no need. You should go. We are not interested in participating in the battle between you and the empire.”
"Ragnar, I know you want to put your safety first and only choose your side after that. You want to play it safe, but sorry, you have to make a choice now. You have to choose between the kingdom or Sangruil. Otherwise, your family will be in trouble whoever wins in the future. You should think about this now."
"Are you threatening us?
What if I say no?" Ragnar asked in a deep voice.
"It's not a threat. I'm just trying to tell the truth. I hope you will make the best choice.” said the black-robed man fearlessly.
“Are you not afraid I will choose the empire and kill all of you?" ask Ragnar.
“Ragnar, our King has severely injured Emperor Nimbus. Currently, he was recuperating at Planet Royal. The fall of the empire was inevitable. I believe you will make the best decision. Otherwise, your entire family will be handed over to an eternal curse because of you."
After the black-robed man said that, he changed the subject and continued coldly, “Also, do you think you have the ability to kill us all? Since we had the guts to come here, it means we've made all the preparations.”
“We are not afraid of your small strength.”
"You can try!”
Then, the two stopped talking. The air around them began to gain weight. The other black-robed men and the Drakes, other than Ragnar, were all extremely nervous. They knew that if they started fighting, both sides would definitely suffer a lot of losses.
This was not something the Drake or Sangruil family wanted to see. The leader of the black-robed man did not want this either. But he had no choice. If he wanted to deal with the Drake family, he had to show how powerful Sangruil was.
That way, the other party would be wary and not start a conflict just like that. If he shows any signs of weakness, Drake's family will become haughty once they see him.
A while later, Ragnar broke the silence and said, “Come in!"
The black-robed man in the lead said nothing. He then brought another black-robed man to the ancestral ground of the Drake family.
A shocking battle erupted in the ancestral land of the Drake family, which was ranked first in the eight leading families. According to information provided by Drake's family. The ancestral ground where their elders lived had been attacked by a group of black-robed people.
These people were extremely strong, and they used very strange methods. Although Drake's family managed to repel the attackers, the elders all suffered injuries of various kinds.
At the same time, the Drake family had requested the return of their core senior members, who were in different parts of the Royal Region. The Royal Region exploded into a frenzy when the news was made public.
The strength of the Drake family was different from the others. After all, they were ranked first among the eight leading families. The strength of the other families was nothing when compared to the Drake family. Moreover, the Drake family was the only one among the eight prominent families who had a reserve warrior who was an Infinity Rank.
They possessed immense strength, so how could anyone dare to attack them?
Instantly. Everyone in the Government Areas is on high alert. Things have started with the Grim family being secretly eliminated, and then the head of the Callisto family willingly giving up his place and letting a young boy take over the family.
Now, even the Drake family has been attacked. It only took about a month for these three major events to occur consecutively in the Royal Region. The Call to Family event can be easily explained. After all, it was something that happened within the family.
But, the exclusion of the Grim family and the attack on the Drake family showed a great possibility of a major change in the Royal Region. The Sangruil Sinners have yet to appear. That led some to begin forming theories.
Meanwhile, in the Milky Way Empire even many speculated that the Empire was behind this incident. But that assumption felt wrong once they explored the theory more deeply. If the Empire was behind the incident, it would be impossible for the Drake family to survive.
They will disappear without a trace like the Grim family experienced. Moreover, the Empire had no reason to attack the Drake family. Even so, if the Empire was not the mastermind behind the scenes, why didn't they step forward?
After all, the Empire was the strongest body in the Milky Way. They have full power to control and maintain order within the Milky Way. When the citizen planet was destroyed in the past, the Empire would send people to conduct investigations even if the planet was not within the Royal Region. However, this time, everyone realized something was wrong. The Empire did not do a single thing.
There are only three possible explanations. The first was that the Empire was behind the incident, or they had given tacit approval to other organizations to carry it out.
The second was that the empire remained silent because it was unable to resist other organizations that had more power than them.
The third was the Empire preparing to deliver a fatal blow.
But no matter which one of those possibilities was true, what had happened to the Grim family and Drake family had caused panic to engulf the Royal Region. Strong organizations began to reduce the territory they led.
Moreover, they requested the return of their superiors and made sure everyone gathered together on their main planet. This way, it would also be easier for them to handle any sudden happenings. What if they were the next target of the black-robed people?
No one knows for sure. The entire Royal Region could sense that something was about to happen. Even the trading planet, which was usually bustling with noise and excitement, became silent.
The next people who had the potential to become the heads of prominent families had all been asked to go home. Many money-wasting companies close their doors after losing their biggest customer, choosing to wait until the storm passes before they take the next step.
An economic depression began to form in the Royal Territory. Many planets have even closed their borders and denied entry to travelers. This domino effect is the result of what happened to the Grim family and the Drake family.
The Kingdom Region and the Royal Planet were the core of the Milky Way Empire. Planet Royal is also the largest living planet in the Milky Way Empire.
At that time, in a luxurious mansion located on Planet Royal. Princess Astrid looked bored as she stared out the window. Life after returning to Planet Royal is so boring. Princess Astrid yearns for the days she spends listening to David tell her stories about his explorations.
If he could get a chance. He really hopes to get a chance to go on an adventure with David.
