Chapter 907 Festival [3]
"Everything is going according to plan. Our forces have infiltrated Beast Emperor Star and spread throughout. There shouldn't be any problems."
A man sat among a table of those who looked similar to him, sharing the same onyx black eyes and hair, as he gave his report,
"Has the Golden Dragon Clan made any movements?" Another man asked.
"None. It seems they are focused on making sure their festival proceeds according to plan. However, they have acquired the aid of a strange protective unit that scours the world, so it is unknown whether or not they have information we are unaware of."
"Protective unit?"
"Yes, sir. According to our scouts, the unit is made up of summoned creatures, though the identity of the summoner is unknown. It has been difficult for our teams to move freely with this troop around."
"I see…" the second man muttered to himself. "Is there anything else of note?"
"We were able to receive a small glimpse of information from the palace. Our informants say that Astoria Golden has been accepted by a master, but no other information on this so-called master has been found. The Golden Dragon Royal Family is keeping a firm lock on that person's identity."
"His power level?"
"Also unknown, however, it can be speculated to be at the 6th revolution at most. Any expert above that level would have been sensed by the Supreme the moment they entered the atmosphere."
"Mm, be mindful regardless. At this stage, we cannot let even a single outlier slip by."
The second man looked the first in the eye and continued, "Keep a firm grasp on any incoming information. It has been almost a thousand years since we began acting on this plan. We cannot let it get ruined in the final moment!"
The first man bowed his head in compliance and withdrew to his seat.
Of those present, he was the last to speak. Now that he'd finished his report, there was nothing more to be said.
The meeting soon dispersed, leaving only a single man in the room.
'The Golden Dragon Clan's enemies are greater than expected. If we encounter some interference…no! The words of that person all those years ago…we cannot allow them to come true!'
The man bit his lip nervously.
He couldn't help but remember the divination the Black Dragon Clan had been forced to receive all those years ago.
Back then, he was just a child, a child who only managed to hear the final words of that prophecy.
"He who tames the Golden Star will one day enslave the Black Dragon."
A fate of slavery, was this the only end for his clan…?
Unacceptable!
The veracity of the prophecy couldn't be doubted. Even the Demigod Elders at the time verified that the Seer wasn't a fool.
But could anyone accept such a fate?
Absolutely not!
For the past 1000 years, the Black Dragon Clan had been slowly and covertly growing themselves to antagonize the Master of the Golden Star, the Golden Dragon Emperor.
If Beast Emperor Star, the Fate Star, could be overtaken, if the Golden Dragon Emperor could be slain, then wouldn't the Black Dragon Clan see their fate reversed?
This long-awaited day was finally on the horizon.
"Everything must happen perfectly tomorrow…" the man, Pretus' eyes sharpened into swords.
"…otherwise, even a single mistake can cause the end of our clan!"
***
The Golden Dragon Clan Estate was truly a gargantuan area.
With its size, it absolutely wouldn't be strange to call it a country rather than label it as the estate of a single clan. On Beast Emperor Star, no influence could occupy nearly as much territory as the ruling family had, especially for personal use.
However, it wasn't as if this massive plot of land was used for mere decoration or authority. In fact, the Golden Dragon Clan was an influence with several hundred million existences under its banner, and the entire Clan Estate was occupied by them, essentially in a structure not much different from a functioning country.
The only difference was that each and every individual living in the estate had at least a noticeable amount of Golden Dragon Bloodline.
What set the Royal Family apart was the fact that their Ancestor was a True Godbeast and also the founder of this empire that now spanned the entirety of Beast Emperor Star and the Beast Domain it resides in!
Nevertheless, the Golden Dragon Clan Estate's physical and spiritual meaning was evident. It was a place all people desired to visit at some point.
And now, one of the rare occasions where the main estate, the portion of the country where only those with pure bloodline could enter, was open to the general public.
"Hey, hey, let me through!"
"I was here first! Stop trying to cut me!"
"Eh? You want to see how I cut you?"
"I'd like to see you try!"
Two people fell to the floor in unison, not even able to finish their arguments. With absolute swiftness and efficiency, they disappeared from the clogged lines that spanned the Golden Dragon Clan at the moment.
"Don't push! Move in an orderly line! Anyone who causes trouble will be immediately removed!" A nearby guard yelled, emphasizing the point.
He wasn't the only one yelling. For several thousand kilometers, countless guards were stationed to manage the lines of people and maintain peace.
Along with these guards, a shadow unit remained to rapidly remove any troublemakers so the guards wouldn't have to personally act and cause a commotion.
Overall, the security measures in place were extraneous. But at the same time, nobody questioned them.
After all, when they finally made their way into the estate, they forgot all about the troubles they experienced before.
Beautiful golden fate clouds hung in the air, showering all those under their gait with auspicious air. The mana was calm and enlightening, even directly healing some elderly and sickly mortals back to their peak state.
The streets were lined with extravagant decorations no matter how many thousands of kilometers one traveled. Street stalls were set up, selling souvenirs, food items, and anything else one could think of to the average consumer.
The atmosphere was filled with joy and laughter as the festive aura enveloped and infected everyone.
It was like a fairyland.
With the passing of time, the cities crowded and millions of people made their way through the lines.
And when it hit noon on the second day…
VOOM!
A titanic projection appeared in the sky, depicting a domineering and handsome man with piercing golden eyes that seemed to look down on the entire universe.
"Citizens, visitors, and those from other worlds and walks of life, welcome to our Golden Dragon Clan's Festival of Fate!" He proclaimed, his voice booming for millions of kilometers without end.
"As you all know, the main event of this festival is a grand tournament for many treasures, and most importantly, for my daughter's hand in marriage! However, we cannot have the main event take place so early! Eat, drink, and celebrate! Enjoy the next few days of small events that we have prepared and when 5 days finally pass…"
"We will finally hold the grand tournament, the most prestigious event of our Beast Domain in the past decade!"
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Immediately, the earth shook as if a natural disaster was going to take place. Raucous, wild cheers rang out from every corner of the Golden Dragon Estate as not only the clan members, but also the guests cheered to complete the Golden Dragon Emperor's speech.
The second his projection faded from the sky, the world became a party bus.
The Festival of Fate had finally begun.
