"I believe the best way forward for your family is to attend the Summit of the Greats, held in two months to help the Five families regain their authority over this continent. Of course, this will benefit my family as well, so I do have a personal sake on the matter."

The smile on Ferlis's face did not change as he made his calm and bold explanation while expressing his own transparencies, trying to appear as open as he could possibly be.

There was no reason for him to hide his goals as it was obvious from the start that his family would benefit from this arrangement so it was better served with his cards on the table.

For the Darknar family, the Summit of the Greats was something they could not afford to miss as they severely lacked the backings of a Great Family, which was the main thing that had kept the Greats at bay till now.

There was always a high possibility that the Great Five all believed some, if not all of the seven primordial were behind the Darknar family. However, that idea did not hold as much weight as the first one as the seven primordials did not possess the resources the sponsor such a risky venture.

So if this summit was allowed to go on as planned without any interference, the Darknar family would not be allowed to continue its development in peace.

Even with all its military potential, the family still lacked the appropriate manpower to contend with all five Great families at once. It would also be impossible to locate key members of the Great Five inner circles for Systematic assassination without any spies already rooted on the inside of each family.

This was something that could not be achieved so easily just because one had skilled individuals. After all, the Great Five took great care in weeding out spies in their family and it would take decades if not centuries to develop spies into various key factions of the family.

This was literally the only way one could gain any information on the Great Five as even someone as capable as Erin had been unable to locate the Great Demon Lord of the Brimstone family's location up till now. Even pinpointing the locations of the Elders and high-ranking nobles or gaining information from a distance was next to impossible.

It was safe to say that Tyler still had business with the Brimstone family and due to the importance of this summit, it was also safe to say every single Great Demon Lord would be in attendance. Meaning this may be the only chance they have to gain Intel on them and their regions.

"Very well then. I, Ty Falls Darknar, accept your invitation to the Summit of the Greats. Please communicate the details with my subordinates."

Saying that Tyler rolled up the piece of parchment he had been given and handed it back to Albert as he nodded. Just like a supreme ruler, he naturally shifted the responsibility to his subordinates after making the overall decision.

This was naturally the most optimal thing to do and not just because he had no idea how to handle such things.

Albert did not hesitate to receive the parchment with a Graceful bow before walking back to the side as Tyler returned his attention back to the Vampire Lord and his two female subordinates.

"Excellent, I'm glad we could agree on this so easily. That should conclude the purpose of my visit today so I shall take my leave, but before that, permit one of my subordinates to stay behind and assist in the distribution of your official claim to the darknar region. I'm, sure she should prove useful to you in getting the information to the entire continent with haste. She will also be the one to communicate the details of the summit of the Greats. Selene Morningstar."

As that name left his mouth, the female vampire standing to his left swiftly genuflected before him in a way that did not match her previous enigmatic and erotic persona.

"―Understood! I shall offer up my body and soul for my lord's sake!"

Although Ferlis could not see Selene's face as she was now kneeling a step behind him, he could keenly feel the conviction in her voice. In truth, the decisions made here would decide the Morningstar family's future to an almost ridiculous extent.

So if he hadn't been stuck with a backlog of years' paperwork waiting for him thanks to his years of absence, Ferlis would've actually preferred to stay here for a while longer and bear witness to this Demon Lord's actions as they dictated the demon continent's future.

He wasn't ignorant to the fact that this d decision could also reflect poorly in the eyes of the other Greats but Vampires never considered themselves the same as demons, to begin with so they were not one to care about the lack of the normal societal structure being established within this region.

Of course, this was mostly just his curiosity at work here so while he was aware of the weight of his decision today, there was no way he would ever volunteer himself to take on any excess work-related responsibility.

"Very well, I shall have Albert here take care of this in my stead as well. Albert is one of my most trusted followers. I am sure there will be no further problems if he and Selene discuss these matters privately."

"That would be fine."

Seeing as Tyler showed no hesitation in accepting his offer to let a demigod of Selene's level stay behind made Ferlis confused a bit. It was normal for any noble family to consider the possibility of a spy when another noble family makes such an offer.

Was he not worried about spies or had he never even considered this fact. Ferlis contemplated these two options but the former seemed more likely given how intelligent he considered the Demon Lord Ty to be. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

Someone like that would not remain ignorant to the risk that came with making such a decision so quickly and without establishing any predisposed conditions which he was prepared to negotiate.

However, this only made him more curious on why he wasn't worried about spies of such caliber being left in the heart of his region.

Was he simply confident in his ability to prevent any information leaks or does he plan to systematically control the information that would be leaked out of his region?

The latter was more likely but that wasn't something that could be achieved so easily, especially with spies that had surpassed mortal limitations.

Now that Ferlis thought of this, he could clearly sense the presence of several spies within the crowd and there were even a few at the demigod standard.

He might've slightly underestimated the Great Five's desperation if they were willing to sacrifice their demigods after losing so many of them during the war. There was even the possibility that some of them had originated from the regions of the Seven Primordials.

Then again, none of them had the same level of information on this new family as he did after observing the darknar region for so long in the past years so it was understandable they wouldn't want to remain in the dark forever.

"Very well then, the present situation is different from before, given as you've already traveled all this way. Why not stay the rest of the night and celebrate this day with us and let us commemorate such a memorable occasion."

Sitted on the high black chair at the end of the hall while resting his face on his right knuckles, the Darknar demon Lord suggested passively, and immediately, the hostile gaze that had surrounded them up till now instantly disappeared as though it was never there, to begin with.

Even the armored knights that had been subdued by the Black Flame Legion were released without a fuss. Ferlis smiled gently as he casually observed the situation before offering up his response.

"No, no, no, we could not possibly trouble to intrude any further. Besides, I have been absent from my region for quite some time now, so I do have a lot of work that has urgent need of my attention so I hope you'll understand."

Ferlis graciously rejected Tyler's offer as he made a mental note of his reactions as well as tendencies while observing the situation closely as it continued to develop around him.

"Is that so. What a shame, then please, allow one of my subordinates to escort you back to your carriages. Please feel free to have him show you around the city and accept some souvenirs."

Tyler responded without a change in his expression as he glanced at Albert who was the most suited for that duty.

"How generous of you. Very well then, I will accept your offer so we shall now take our leave."

Sensing that it would be pointless to refuse the offer without reason. Ferlis conceded as he turned his attention to face Albert for the second time today.

This was the first mortal that had been able to stand before him and live to tell the tale in over 400 years. Even if this achievement was only made possible by his possession of a God Tier artifact, it was still enough to warrant his respect.

After all, he didn't see Tyler as a fool that would bestow such a precious item to a man that wasn't worthy of the honor. Besides, even with the protection from divine auras, God Tier artifacts tend to provide, not many would have the willpower alone to stare him down and survive his murderous intent even if he had been holding back.

With that in mind, Ferlis had taken great interest in him and decided to have a chat with the former Demon Lord of the Cronoff family. It wasn't every day he could meet so many people that piqued his interest.

"Excellent. Now then, Albert… please escort our guests on their way back. I'll leave the rest to your discretion."

"As you command, my lord." 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

With a deep and gracious bow, Albert accepted the responsibility as he turned to face Ferlis with the expression of a world-class butler. His previous animosity was nowhere to be found and he seemed as thing this was his first time meeting the Vampire Lord's personality.

Returning Albert's gaze with a smirk, Ferlis promptly turned around and left the hall, accompanied by Silver and his entourage of knights that marched behind him, leaving behind only the female vampire called Selene.

Even after several minutes passed after the large doors were shut behind the intruders that had turned out to be members of a Great Family, the hall maintained its silence before suddenly breaking into an uproar.
