The next day after Miko and Kristen fought, Miko with his old and new generals, except Sasha, Momo, and Leon, were touring the city. Sapphire, Nana, and Hana was there as well.

“Don, did you already send back Sola and Yota?”

Edward asked.

Miko nodded.

“I need them to go back and convince their respective countries to side with me for what’s to come.”

The night before Miko called for Yota and Sola.

He ordered them to return to their countries and use their positions as prince and princess to persuade their countries that forming an alliance with the Dragna Kingdom was ideal.

If an alliance was too much, Miko ordered them to persuade them to not take an aggressive stance against the kingdom.

The reason for this wasn’t because Miko feared their countries, he just wanted to save as much resources as possible. However, if their countries insist on becoming his enemies then he’ll add them to the list of countries to devour.

Miko was also prepared to become Yota and Sola’s enemy if he must.

Although they both were under a Soul Promise to be forever loyal to him, there were ways to go against that.

For example, what if someone hypnotize them? Then it wouldn't be by their will that made them go against him. If that happened then the Soul Promise wouldn’t take affect and they’ll keep their souls.

Because of this possibility Miko had prepared for the worst.

“I see. Then I guess we won’t see them for a while.”

Said Edward.

“What? Feeling lonely?”

“I wanted them to assist me in running the underworld here. They were core members like me so we worked together a lot.”

Miko wrapped his arm around Edward’s neck.

“Don’t be so glum. They’ll be back. You have the rest of Exsul helping you so you’ll be alright.”

Miko said with a laugh.

“You two sure are close.”

Said Ace.

“Well, Edward was my first comrade in the city after all.”

“Wait, what about me?”

Said Bloom.

“The last time I checked we fought the first time we met, and you tried to use me after that.”

Said Miko.

“I started trusting Edward before I trusted you.”

“Hmph.”

Bloom didn’t say anything and seemed to be pouting.

Miko laughed when he saw that.

“We’re here. This is the academy you ordered to be built.”

Said Hina.

She pointed at a luxurious looking building in front of them. It was huge and was painted azure and gold.

“Nammu Academy Of Magic And Warfare?”

Sapphire read the school’s nameplate.

“Nammu is Tia’s other persona. She doesn’t use it that often because they're basically the same. I decided to name it after her.”

Miko explained.

“Aren’t you going to take a look?”

Luka asked.

“Nah. Hina was in charge so I’m sure it’s perfect.”

Miko answered.

Hina blushed slightly when she heard what he said.

“Where are the trade schools located?”

“In the Middle Class District just like you ordered.”

Hina answered after a cough.

“Good. I’ll being appointing teachers for both school when I’m free. After that I’ll officially open them to the public.”

Miko said to himself.

“I want to see the casino and the other entertainment facilities in the commercial district….”

Miko turned and looked at Hana.

“But I think it’s time I fulfill my promise.”

“Then..?”

Miko nodded.

“Time to see the old man.”

Miko left the High Class District and returned to the palace with everyone. He even called for the rest of Silver Crow.

“Is it me, or other than the girls we haven't really got any story time?”

Reiji asked.

“Idiot. Stop breaking the 4th wall and be quiet like the side character you are.”

Said Zetsu.

Miko ignored them and stood in front of the door at the back of the Palace.

“Bašmu.”

The moment Miko said that an elegant looking man with azure and gold hair and golden serpentine eyes appeared in front of him.

This was Bašmu, the Secundus Branch Guardian Beast.

“Brother, you’ve returned.”

Said Bašmu.

Miko nodded.

“Brother?”

Bloom and others from Grim City were confused.

“Bašmu was Tiamat’s son and one of her 11 supreme monsters. He calls Miko brother for unknown reasons.”

Sora explained.

“I want you to allow everyone here permission to enter the Secundus world in the future. This is just a precaution in case I need any of them to enter.”

Said Miko.

Bašmu scanned everyone face before nodding.

“Alright. Gallu.”

“Miko.”

This time it was Gallu who appeared.

“Is the old man home?”

“Yes, he’s there.”

Miko took a deep breath.

“What about Momo?”

“She’s there too.”

Gallu answered with a smile.

Miko and her shared a link as Apostles, so she knew what he was feeling.

“I-I see…”

Miko felt the urge to turn around but his sense of responsibility to Kaido and Hana didn’t allow him to.

“Edward, do you have any pen and paper?”

Miko asked.

“I do.”

Edward took out a pen and a piece of paper from his pocket.

“What are you going to do with it?”

He asked as he handed Miko the paper.

“I’m going to write a will.”

“Huh?”

Under everyone’s gaze Miko started writing on the paper.

“Dear, Mother. If you're reading this that means that I’m dead. Please don’t seek revenge, I brought this upon myself. I leave you my fortune, and my crown. You can divided everything else as you feel fit. Your oldest son, Miko.”

He then handed Gallu the letter.

“If you will.”

“I understand.”

She replied.

“….Seriously, what kind of monster is his cousin?”

Nico asked.

“Alright, let’s go!”

Miko said as if he was trying to hype himself up.

An image of a lion-face dragon appeared on the door.

Miko opened it and the broad and beautiful scenery of the Primus World presented itself to everyone.

Miko jumped in and started to fly with his wings.

Everyone followed suit. Anyone who couldn’t fly was given a ride by those who could.

After a long time of flying the Xia Palace came into Miko’s sight.

He landed and everyone landed behind him.

Miko started to walk into the palace after taking a deep breath.

“Young Master.”

The servants lined up and greeted Miko as he walked deeper into the palace.

“We’re going to meet the Demon Dragon God and the Chaos Emperor, whom shook the world to its core so many times. I’m starting to feel nervous.”

Said Nana.

“You don’t need to feel nervous. You’ll just feel disappointed when you meet them.”

Said Luka.

“Those two are the most carefree person you’ll ever meet.”

Said Hina.

“In fact it’s better you expect something really weird to happen. It’ll reduce the chances of you getting a heart attack.”

Said Sora.

“I wonder what surprise we’re going to get today?”

Said Ace.

“When you say it like that I just lost all the tension I was feeling.”

Said Jin.

“It’s better that way.”

Said Luka.

They soon arrived at the throne room door.

Miko made a cross across his chest and chanted some mantras before pushing the door open.

“………..”

He was immediately rendered speechless the moment he entered.

Not only him, everyone else was too.

“Hah!”

“Yah!”

“Not yet!”

“Take this!”

In front of them were a tennis court the size of a football field. On it were Nero and Nova in their underwear playing tennis with a giant ball and tennis rackets.

No. It wasn’t a ball, it was a giant armadillo . And they weren’t using tennis rackets, they were using a pair of cyclops.

“…………”

There was so many things that didn’t make sense no one knew where to start.

“Hah!”

Nero jumped into the air and used his cyclops and hit the armadillo to the ground.

“Crap!”

Nova wasn’t able to react fast enough and the armadillo past him.

“Hahahaha! That’s my point!”

Nero laughed and pointed at Nova with the cyclops.

“You know the deal. Strip or pass over my reward!”

He pointed at a stack of photos that was behind Nova.

“Those are my latest photos of Sasha, there’s even a photo of her smiling with Momo and Tessa.”

Nova didn’t hesitate to tear of his underwear.

“You’ll get them over my dead body!”

He shouted.

“That’s some nice resolve, my son! But did you forget the rule we made last week? If either of us are unable to even touch the ball with the racket two pieces of clothes are required as punishment

Nero said.

“Since you only had one piece of clothing remaining then you must give something else as payment.”

He smirked.

“Hand them over, those pictures!”

“D-Damn it!”

Nova looked like he was about to cry tears of blood as he looked at the pictures behind him.

“Come on. What are you waiting for? Give me my reward!”

Nero started laughing triumphantly.

“Ohhhh!”

Nova suddenly shouted and grabbed a firm hold of his skin.

“Haaaaa!”

He then ripped off the skin on his chest.

“L-Like I said, over my dead body!”

He threw the skin towards Nero.

“There’s your damn reward! Take it!”

“Ohhhh! Such resolve! Such compassion!”

Nero suddenly started crying.

“There’s no doubt about it! You’re definitely my son!”

“…………”

Everyone from Grim City who were watching this scene were frozen in place. They couldn’t process what they were seeing.

“Those two….Are they really Nero and Nova?”

Bloom asked.

“In the flesh.”

Hina answered.

“What are they doing?”

Kaido asked.

“No idea.”

Luka answered.

“Are they idiots?”

“Yup.”

Miko answered.

“………”

“……….”

Everyone could only watch until the father and son duo finish their intense match of strip tennis.

It was like this more people came to know the true nature of the Chaos Emperor and the Demon Dragon God.
