Due to his helmet, it was impossible to see his face. However, one thing was clear from the slight trembling of his body, he was furious.

A loss of level 600+ wasn't something that one could get over with in a day or two.

"Ah, I knew I would find you here" At this moment, a rustling noise sounded out followed by the appearance of Shasurna.

"Why are you here? I think I made myself clear when Gil-Garna came here. I said that I need some time alone… so get lost" Yverza was not in the mood to mind his language nor up for some small talks with his fellow king.

"Don't be like that, I know exactly how you feel. If you remember, I too lost my direct subordinate to this dungeon a couple of floors ago"

Shasurna did not mind Yverza's unfriendly behaviour and continued to move forward with his slithery tail. As he said, he knew exactly how Yverza felt since he too had lost a direct subordinate not too long ago.

As such, it could be said that if there was anyone who couldn't tell what he was thinking and going through, it would be the Emerald Viperlord.

"Why did you come here? Don't tell me it is for a stupid reason like what Gil-Garna came here for. I don't need your stupid consolation and I am still sane. The Dungeon is still our top priority, I know how to separate my personal interest from our joint objective"

 Yverza spoke turning his head around slightly.

"Hoh, Gil-Garna was here? Well, I expected him to have made his move already. Anyway, I am not here to console you or tell you all those nonsense. The reason why I came here is to inform you of something"…

"What? What do you mean?" To his surprise, Shasurna wasn't here to console nor speak of words of comfort to him. In fact the next words that came out of the latter's mouth were so shocking that he couldn't help but turn his head around.

"Do you know the reason why your subordinate died?"..

BANG… At those words from Shasurna, Yverza lost control of his aura causing the whole chamber to creak and collapse.

 "What do you mean? Do you know something? What is the real reason behind my subordinate's death?"…

"Calm down, I will tell you everything. However, before that I need you to agree on a few conditions of mine"..

"State"…

 "Hehe, it's nothing much. I want you to tell me what kind of agreement you had with Gil-Garna" The Emerald Viperlord shrugged "If I am going to tell you an information as important as that, I need some kind of evidence that proves that we are allies. If you can tell me the truth, I am willing to tell you the reason behind the death of your subordinate"…

"Agreement?!" Yverza arched his brows uncertain why the other party would suddenly ask him that.

Nevertheless, he still replied truthfully. At this moment, knowing the truth behind the death of his direct subordinate was more important to him.

After the Ivory Terraquake stopped reciting the agreement he had with Gil-Garna, Shasurna nodded his head.

"As expected, it really was as I thought" he uttered in a low voice.

"I told you what you wanted. Now tell me what do you know about the death of my subordinate" Yverza declared impatiently.

 "Fine, let me tell you this… the death of your subordinate wasn't by accident, it was planned"…

 "What?!!"…

"You heard it, it was planned" Shasurna started recounting what happened after they were all teleported to this floor.

"We the seven kings were all teleported to special areas which are guarded by the most powerful monsters of the dungeon. The allied clans were sent scattered all around the floor. With us gone, and our appointed subordinates scattered, the allied army was in shambles"

"What's more, there were several large areas on the floor where a barrier was installed which jammed the transmission conch. As such, they couldn't even send transmission calls to contact their leaders. In such a situation, the allied clans still continued to explore the dungeon"

"Time passed by and we finally came out of the special areas. The teams nearest to us contacted us immediately. As it turns out the team that sensed the presence of Gil-Garna were mine".

Shasurna's eyes became venomous and his tail thrashed loudy.

"From this point on, things get interesting. When my team reached Gil-Garna, they unknowingly heard the conversation between him and the Queen of the Harpies…

.

.

"Enough with your nonsense. I know that you won't allow a safe passage to the dungeon core without any reason. What are you scheming?" Gil-garna barked out at the transmission conch in his hand.

"What a rude thing to say. However, since you have asked let me tell you what I want…" the voice that came out from the other end was none other than the Queen of the harpies.

"I want half of this dungeon. I know that you have been scheming against the backs of the other seven kings. You have no intentions of sharing the dungeon with them. The only reason why you even proposed the idea of an alliance was because you knew that just conquering the dungeon with your ogre clan alone would leave them in a vulnerable state after"

"So to not only conquer the dungeon in one go and to make sure that no other king clans in the forest are a threat, you proposed an alliance to make use of their strength. The dungeon would take care of weakening them and once their numbers dwindled, the other king clans would no longer be in a state where they could attack the ogre clan"

"Then at the crucial moment, you will betray the other two kings and steal the dungeon core from under their noses. Once you get hold of the dungeon core, you will then use all its resources to fight off the other kings and push them out of the dungeon. This way, you achieve both the goals at once".
