Chapter 187: Crimson Dragon is here
Back in King Julian's dimension, Zamram moved within the shadows. He was instructed by the Crimson Dragon to speak with the adequate person.
That person was naturally Alyona.
It was the existence made after her. Although the personalities varied, they became closer due to the profound connection between them.
They all wanted to serve Crimson Dragon.
Dark Matter Alyona was also Reylin's creation. She was the one who had influenced the real Alyona the most.
Zamram secretly called her, then revealed his talk with the Crimson Dragon.
[Crimson Dragon's chamber.]
A few minutes later, Alyona bumped into Reylin's chamber. She glanced into Reylin's eyes, understanding that he was aware of what was going on.
She knelt and confirmed Zamram's knowledge.
"So he knows... It shouldn't be a trap..." Reylin's mind flashed with Zamram's image and how that man stared at his father during the dungeon's battle.
Reylin inferred that Zamram loved his mother deeply. But who wouldn't? Besides, his mother's case was indeed concealed by King Julian, meaning that all brothers knew a different version of her supposed demise.
Reylin chuckled, "All brothers... Hmm."
He rose on two feet and strode toward Alyona, "Tell him that I will cooperate with him."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Alyona bowed, then conveyed the message to her other-self.
At the same time, Reylin gathered all-important forces from his continent.
He made a big meeting about the incoming battle. It was a battle that would save players and bring them back.
They would be able to return to their lives!
That was what Reylin desperately wanted, as saving Maya was a priority.
"We are going to use golden fish immediately. Have you tamed it, William?" Reylin asked his eyes on his brother.
William smiled widely with his usual charm. "Yep! We can go even now."
"And so we shall go now," Reylin announced.

King Julian's dimension was shrouded in the dark matter.
It was not easy to keep it hidden, so the family used night across the globe as their cover. That allowed them to save some energy reserves and continue their assault throughout other continents.
In a castle, Zamram patiently waited for Crimson Dragon's arrival.
His brothers left with their armies to fight the ascended nations all over the continents, so it was just him and King Julian with spare soldiers and servants running across the land.
Ever since he saw his mother in chains and pain, Zamram swore to kill his father. All excuses eluded him, and he feigned that he understood his father's goals.
He feigned so well that King Julian truly believed his son.
He rested in his chamber, sitting on the throne while thinking about Yvonne, whom he had his heart smitten by.
That peculiar player became so independent... He liked how she struggled and avoided the truth.
While his father thought about the beautiful red-haired woman, Zamram's eyes rose in the dark sky.
It was so dark, but his heart was perhaps darker.
At last, the bright color, even redder than Yvonne's hair, lit up throughout the sky. Earth-rumbling roars filled the whole dimension, announcing the invasion of one and only, Crimson Dragon!
King Julian widened his eyes, and he remained in a stupor for some time.
As the king, however, he couldn't stay idle. His only safe spot was endangered, so he called all his family and contacted Zamram.
"Zamram! How could these fools find us?!" King Julian asked hysterically.
Although Reylin was never a problem, it was much different after becoming the king. The Crimson Dragon leveraged the whole kingdom, continent, and its residents and players. All wielded the Crimson Dragon System, fueling him and making him stronger!
That existence was not the same as before!
Zamram closed his eyes, "I am not sure."
That was a hella unsatisfactory answer.
King Julian ignored his son and rose to the sky.
Crimson Dragon already took reign over these, spreading his flames and turning all clouds scarlet.
Reylin stood with his arms crossed on its head, "King Julian... As kings, I should use adequate speech, but you know what? Fuck you. I am here to erase your petty existence out of this world."
"Crimson Dragon..." King Julian narrowed his eyes.
He didn't expect Reylin to be alone.
He promptly looked around his dimension, then confirming that no one from his family except Zamram was here, he summoned his strongest ability!
The Woman with alluring curves appeared behind him, still swathed in bandages and chains. Her screams didn't bypass her lips, though.
It seemed she was tamed.
The scarlet clouds stopped, and Crimson Dragon no longer could spread his influence.
At last, the terrifying existence belonging to Zamram's mother came out of the portal, in its peak form, that was!
The monster dropped onto the ground, shaking the whole dimension. It was an existence akin to a demon with horrific skin and stench.
Its claws rose to the sky!
Crimson Dragon howled and descended with flames oozing out of its mouth and claws!
Their clash shook the dimension again!
Reylin smiled, his mana fueling his dragon, "So much different than before, right? You... You no longer can influence me as much as before... I will... I will win."
Using his system, Reylin located the souls of all players. He was much better at locating those since his system touched not only the bodies but also minds and souls.
He confirmed that all were here!
It fueled his wrath and greed!
"I WILL SEAR YOU ALIVE!" Reylin's eyes went bloodshot, and his power surged to new heights.
King Julian didn't expect this much difference!
He believed that Reylin would be able to contest him as equals at most! But that sudden burst of wrath somehow shifted the tides of the battle.
And at last, Crimson Dragon saddles the demonic existence, taking the reign over it!
ROAR!
King Julian dropped onto his knees.
His body let out an abundant amount of dark matter. He was ready to unleash mass area portal skills to destroy the Crimson Dragon.
Alas, his son, Zamram, has been waiting for this occasion.
Standing before his father, Zamram took out the long sword and pierced through King Julian's heart.
[King Julian has died.]
"Zamram... I see... So you... couldn't let her go..."
