[-In the Great Hall of Unity-]

As everyone bowed towards the new Queen of Fairies … Queen Venus!

​​

Showing their respect towards her.

Other members of the Altum Council welcomed the presence of the last awaited member for the emergency meeting.

Except, for the Alpha King of all Alpha Werewolves.

King Alcyd was evidently agitated from the previous conversation he had with the other members.

Including with the Grand White Witch, Magdeline.

Not telling him regarding the message of the Great Oracle to the other members of the Altum Council.

As Queen Venus took her seat.

King Magnus could not resist but ask.

"So … the former lover of the first supreme ruler, our beloved late Emperor Odin, Venus! Should I say, Queen Venus? Since you have taken over your sister's crown. I guess you have finally accepted your role as the rightful queen of the fairy kingdom?" King Magnus gave a snide comment towards the new fairy queen.

"Oh, Magnus! You have never changed!" Queen Venus intentionally trying to provoke the king of warlocks through uttering his first name without his formal title.

Immediately, Magdeline stepped in between the growing tension.

It was known to others that Venus and Magnus never liked each other.

Because it was Queen Venus who kept discouraging the late Emperor Odin to trust King Magnus.

Her presence was one of the biggest reason to why King Magnus never became close and was not fully trusted by the late supreme ruler.

Unlike Queen Titania, the new fairy queen doesn't hold back with her thoughts and was a straightforward individual.

"I guess, we must focus on the real agenda for this emergency meeting. My issues with the Alpha King should be discussed privately after our real agenda for today." Magdeline emphasized the urgent issue that needed to be discussed by all current members of the Altum Council.

As everyone listened to her discuss and points out the important issues at large.

King Cornaith raised a valid point during the discussion.

"If the issue regarding the expansion of King Lionel must be taken seriously and urgent. Then we must seek for the help of Queen Mira and King Falcon."

King Magnus responded to this by saying, "From the information I gathered as well … Ever since the failed attempt of the previous Alpha King to kill them both through the help of your daughter, the Grand Dark Witch, Mia! Those two have been hiding and isolated themselves in their own kingdom."

Then King Arceus interjected, "Pft! It will be impossible now for us to get through them because they refuse to answer any request. I am pretty sure, the Great Oracle may have sent a specific instruction for them. For their own sake!"

"Knowing the Great Oracle … There is a good reason and purpose behind it. ALWAYS!" Queen Venus elaborated.

Magdeline agreed with Queen Venus as she threw a glance on King Alcyd.

The Alpha King was still a bit upset at the thought that things could have been different if only the members of the Altum Council came to their aid during the abduction of Selene.

As the meeting amongst the members of the Altum Council went on …

Just outside the door, their respective retinue and escorts were waiting patiently for their respective leaders.

Looking towards each other.

Group of escorts were positioned in separate groupings along the hall.

Theo and his fellow warriors were wondering if the other delegates have come in peace.

Without any trouble stringing around them.

Observing each group of escorts.

Jackson and Theo were more experienced in terms of assessing the situation compared to Galvin.

Having the most experience and being part of the known elite group of Golden Moon Pack warriors, they have acquired such advanced skill in observing and assessing such situations.

One particular group they became wary of was the escorts of King Magnus.

"I cannot pin point but there is something not right. And my senses telling me … some danger is approaching." Jackson shared to his fellow warriors.

Jackson was not only reliable with his tracking abilities but also with his instincts and senses.

Before they could further ask Jackson.

A sudden beaming light blinded them all at the hall way outside the great hall.

…

…

Sudden noises were heard by the members of the Altum Council.

"What's going on outside?" King Gazelle wondered.

King Alcyd immediately tried to listen what was going on outside through his sharp werewolf hearing senses.

"Some unidentified creatures are causing trouble outside." King Alcyd informed the other members.

They hurriedly check what was going on outside.

Each leader witnessed an unexpected scene.

All escorts of each member of Altum Council were groaning and were seemingly blinded by something.

"What happened here?" King Alcyd demanded from his warriors.

Since they were the closest to the door of the great hall.

"Have you identified any of those creatures that caused this?" King Alcyd asked.

"No, Alpha! Everything happened too quickly." Jackson replied.

Queen Venus and Magdeline combined their powers in returning everybody's eye sight.

A sign of relief from each escort once their eye sight returned.

Removing the effects of the extreme blinding light which was inflicted to all escorts.

"This was not a simple attack. Definitely, it was a group of creatures that had a mission specifically." King Cornaith was using his foresight but not strong enough like the seers.

Only a minor ability to gain some bits of certain scenarios.

Though, King Cornaith was mostly known with his incredible speed, earth binding seals and beast manipulation.

On the other hand, King Magnus realized something.

"It was an extraction mission!" King Magnus revealed.

"How do you know that?" King Gazelle asked.

"Because one of my escorts is missing. The seer!" King Magnus stated.
