Rebirth of The Strongest Celestial

Chapter 137: The price of Autonomy

Patron Lyolld leans back his chair his intent sharp barely holding his power back. He rubs on the one ring on his right hand that can still rotate without hurting too much. He slams his hand on the table trying to be as imposing as possible and says, "Fine, have it your way filth. Leave!" This actual sets Tyr off a bit. If the man was weak he should posturing more make threats, trying to throw his weight it is clear he has made another enemy this day. Tyr stands licks his left hand and opens the door with the hand he licked. Lyolld hisses in displeasure at the gesture mumbling something under his breath. Those same three guards are still outside the door and follow Tyr to his speedboat. 

Patron Lyolld says, "Boy go get The Viper." The pale baby faced boy returns a few minutes later with a thin figure in tow. She has a snake tattoo that starts at her ankle going all the way up her leg. It is extremely detailed and the mouth is biting at her cooch. She has long soul-stealing shamrock green hair and a death gaze of equally shocking pink eyes and fatal red lips. Patron Lyolld is always ogling her even if she is not his type he knows how to appreciate a specimen as rare and competent as her. His eyes can't help but wonder how far that snake tongue of her goes. 

Elayna says, "Up here mutt." She wraps her legs the other way around hiding her venom. Where she is from her Dabbi would never draw so much attraction especially in a more civilised area. Alas, she is here because of who this fat useless most drunken pig is related to.  At least she only has to be another six months at most which is the perfect chance to heal up. She grabs the bottle of his favourite swirl of the tray. It is some local hogwash that barely passes for alcohol to her lips. 

Patron Lyolld says, "Dear woman I have been deeply wounded by the actions of these all so-called Supreme beings is unacceptable. All of them are self short-sighted and arrogant. My family use to rule all these lands not so long ago before the concessions. if it wasn't for my great grandfather that fool I would be a king in my own right. By right I should be King, I hate those bastards." The viper runs her hands along her thighs inviting like boosting the man's ego. To her, he is so easy to manipulate a nudge her a gentle push there. The fool doesn't even realise he would never be king. Given his disposition, he would never be able to play the Crowns Gambit at a high enough level. Only an Owl can play that game and she herself is only a snake.

Elayna says, "Oh how unbelievable." She says in the most sarcastic way she can, he doesn't even pick up on it probably only hearing what he wants to hear not what he is saying." 

Patron Lyolld says, "Yes dear woman, of course! Here take a look at this document. It came over the magus network from headquarters." He might not be able to read her but he knows gutter trash when he sees it. No matter how wondrously beguiling she is. She has a desperation to her one he knows how to use to get her to do his bidding. She is the perfect prop if only he can bind her to him. Somehow then he might really be king one day. He watches her move trying to pick out, if the sudden steadiness in her breathing is an act or has she always been that way. A whiff of her erotic scent makes him blush a bit his mind drifting off until she speaks. 

Elayna bite her lips looking at him, not in a million did she think it could be this easy. Besides the mans' plenty perversions, he is not that terrible like a pig who think just because they live inside with you you won't turn them to bacon. Her eyes glisten with greed, "For this to work Lord Lyolld, you would have to push past any objection. Only then might a woman of strength be able to interfere without breaking universal law." NPC's are bound to certain areas and rules due to universal an NPC as strong as her is severely limited unless. A certain noble brings her into the family then she uses the same nobles claims to interfere in a backwater like Pike. 

Patron Lyolld licks his cracked lips from years of smoking and ill care, shifting around in his chair he needs to be extremely careful once she finds what he really has in store for her. So taking another sip of some of the best booze in the world he says, "A show of good faith is needed perhaps a piece of land that otherwise unclaimed, I'm sure a humble servant like yourself knows that the best way to the top is through a lord land." 

Elayna smiles at that now he just needs to offer some link to the family, then once she is in she can kill and become a lorded landed lady. Even if it is of backwater like this at her level scant few will be able to do anything to her. Even the King is only a level 300 hundred. She lifts up her glass and says, "I can spare a small vessel of course but we must level immediately to formalise the process." They both stand, nod at each other agreeing on two very different things. 

Sometime in the future...[exactly one month from today]

A small sailing ship set sail for the Shifting island, carrying with it the black-headed, Red skinned Silver horned stag is on the sail with a small addition of a snake coiling around its neck.

On this day [back to present day], Tyr sailing back worried about having made another enemy especially one as powerful as the association. They can be oppressive when it comes to things involving them. He just has to make sure not to violate any real Adventure Association rules. That would be hard to handle given the many things they have to do. He sends an update to SKY Ocean Hunter who doesn't reply. 

Styx says, "Primo, here it is. It took a while since the area is still under the control of the demons." Styx had been sent by SKY Ocean hunter to help find a piece of coral. This Coral was stolen from the Barren sea years ago and returning it will allow SKY Ocean Hunter to make a claim from his Drowned House. SKY Ocean Hunter puts it in his inventory, in total he has the four pieces he needs now in large parts thanks to Sunken Reef Chapter. They have been handling the fetch quests and bringing the pieces he needs. Inside his inventory, they come together forming the Barren Crown Base. 

SKY Ocean Hunter says, "what will you do next?" SKY OceanHunter has to go home for the first time since they started travelling together. He is a little apprehensive but having met the minimum level requirement and also gathered the necessary pieces he might as well throw his hat into the competition. At least that way his building will have something to show off once it is complete. He can't wait for it. All of Sunken Reef has already gathered the raw resources for it.

Styx says, "I will probably try to find some of our people, I'm sure nobody has noticed yet. But every so often some of our people are kidnapped. Something odd is going on in the ocean." While they could easily call some of the players in real life. It would ruin the game to tell their location since part of the fun will be trying to rescue them. 

SKY Ocean Hunter says, "That's not good tell me if it's a player, if it's NPC then handle it how you like." There have been a few skirmishes between all the guilds each rushing to increase their rank. SKY Ocean Hunter wants to hurry home because the reward will help fight off the guilds and future naval warfare. He also worries over one of the participants because no matter how much he looks up Ultrafox he is almost completely unheard of. There is one video of him in the Boneyards of Fern an abandoned village Northwest of Pike, but not as north as Riker the last village in Pikon. this guild page is even more mysterious as it is written in a dead language or at least that is Tyr said. 

Styx says, "What about you Primo? You need a full squad and SHE is the only one you can take. If you want to be quick and return within a month. I and Tyr would at least have to do a two-week quest to get the right items to be able to breathe underwater." Styx smiles like a madman knowing why he said it the way he did. A small shiver goes down SKY Ocean Hunters' spine.

SKY Ocean Hunter says, "I know dude, fucking know and what's worse there are seven of them now. I have to explain to Lux, that I'm going to be alone with Ocean fang for almost three weeks. She is already distrustful of Calypso." 

Styx says, "that is nothing how are going to tell about the Festival Frenzy." SKY Ocean hunter nearly chokes on-air as he losses control of his sea sack. THe Frenzy Festival is another thing he has to explain he smacks his cheeks he can't be afraid of her. What kind of guild leader would that make him. He uses a calling spell to connect to Lux...   

1. So name because during the beta, the players all named themselves king or queen and lead to a bloody period of extended wars in Liguria called the Uprising of Crowns.
