The Holy Solar Day has arrived.

Anyone could see the streets and markets starting to bustle with activity. Many teenage Emberwings now went against the taboo, playing on the road. The atmosphere was filled with clamour.

The various district representatives from the Atlan Union and the other tourists who came on their own accord arrived at Tylasus City one by one. The place was packed to the brim, even overcrowded, resulting in multiple cases of breaches in public security.

According to the insider information, many of the elites from the Mobius organisation and Triserpent Sect had also snuck into Tylasus City. They were the ones who stirred up trouble here, making the place chaotic.

Additionally, the arch-enemy of the Atlan Union, the Divineflame Empire, had also sent a large team of ambassadors, causing more trouble.

It was not the end, as a newly rised leader among the upper hegemony of the Allied Kingdom also send a team of envoy to congratulate the Altan Union. The Allied Kingdom as the name suggests is a formation of allied forces of many races, powerhouses and families. There are a total of six heads, each and everyone is quite a prestigious star ranked expert, their combined power puts them in the map and they are only slightly weaker than the Altan Union, which is mostly because of the lack of a Radiant Moon expert like the King of Divineflame empire Archibald or the Union Leader of Altan Union Scarlet Eye.

Among the Allied kingdom, another head has risen who is more than capable despite of being young. He is the most popular leader among the common masses and has amassed an impressive support for himself, he comes from the prestigious matarisvan race. He is hailed as the true royalty of the Allied Kingdom.

..

A few soldiers doned the uniform of a military official, and stood tall and straight. Many of them, lined along both sides, while Scarlet Eye stood in front of a huge fitting room mirror, adjusting the butterfly-shaped necktie on his collar.

"Your Highness! Your schedule for today is as follows: first up will be the parliament lecture, followed by welcoming the envoy from the Divineflame Empire. The banquet in the afternoon" Standing next to Scarlet Eye were a few secretaries with pen and paper in hand, chattering away. There were also a few maids who were tidying up the creases on the coattails of his dinner suit.

Schiker, Bowens and the others were also dressed neatly and stood at the side. Outside the window, lots of fireworks and gun salutes could be seen. Colourful confetti filled the sky, and the place was filled with a festive atmosphere.

"Let's go!" After quite some time, Scarlet Eye finished his preparations and took the lead as he mounted a chariot that was drawn by numerous scarlet birds.

Schiker followed closely behind, Schiker is Scarlet Eye's illegitimate child and Bowens is a star ranked expert leader of the personal military force of Scarlet Eye, but he is actually a Morning Star Magus spy from Jupiter Lightning.

The whole Altan Union is infiltrated and invaded by many expert of many forces, even Scarlet Eyes knows this fact but he is bidding his time to eventually strangle his enemies. With the help of his ultimate treasure he has quite some confidence in himself. Unknown to him, there is someone who is eyeing his biggest secret.

Gilbert, Adam and Emma had also found their way into the ranks of feudal nobility through a small noble family by disguise and strength. They then wantonly betrayed the secrets of their own Triserpent Sect against their interests, and attained the positions of Earl and Viscount, allowing them to attend today's celebration. Lita has also attained a hidden identify, but she didn't reveal herself to the public much, as she has also successful infiltrated the Union.

Lita has informed the three Dukes about the role they have been assigned by Leylin as all hell break loose, at first they were reluctant but in favor of benefits they yielded.

If the four Giant Kemoyin Warlocks were together, even Scarlet Eye would find it hard to capture them successfully, so there was at least some form of assurance in terms of safety.

Scarlet Eye first came at the parliament delivering an illogical and boring speech. Afterwards, he tagged along with the leader of the state and the other major ministers as they proceeded to the plaza where people pledged oaths and celebrated their victories. They were preparing to welcome the emissary from the Divineflame Empire and then, the Allied kingdom.

Positioned behind Scarlet Eye were the delegates from several major districts, as well as a large number of high-ranking officials and influential ministers.

*Boom! Boom!*

it was as though there was an earthquake. Fire flashed in the distance, as it marked the arrival of copious amounts of fire elementals.

These fire elementals existed in various sizes, and some were not even humanoid. There were quite a number of beasts, bodies constituted of flames and lava, burning at temperatures that could scorch anything.

Although they moved as a delegation, they left two long burn tracks on the ground. The temperature of the entire plaza started to rise steadily.

It was fortunate that most of the Emberwings practised Fireplume. The high-ranking officials and nobility present in the plaza had all mastered at least three levels of the technique, and thus didn't find it hard to bear.

Creatures that were able to survive in the Lava World had a powerful resistance towards high temperatures.

The officials who were specially put in charge of diplomacy appeared, and engaged in a series of complicated rites and etiquette.

In the Lava World, the circumstances were evidently different than the logical and profit oriented Magus. As compared to Magi who were much like researchers, the Emberwings who studied Fireplume were more similar to knights. They had a great thirst for the secular benefits of various territories.

The Magi of the Magus World often withdrew to the second line of duty, and manipulated the countries from behind the scenes. Those who held authority in the Lava World, however, were different. They liked to handle things personally, and preferred to take control of the entire system in the foreground

"Greetings to the Atlan Union Leader. I am Saka, the envoy of the Divineflame Empire!"

Walking ahead of the diplomatic mission was a flaming giant who was over ten metres tall, looking like a fire demon from myths. Him bowing down to a tiny Emberwing seemed rather laughable, but nobody would actually dare to do so.

Scarlet Eye merely stood there like an eternal mountain, a sky which people could only look up to.

"Also Our empire seriously condemns the leader, Scarlet Eye, for killing one of our personnel without reason." Saka's next words caused the atmosphere to turn chilly. He was talking about the event which took place yesterday when an expert from Divineflame Empire tried to sneak attack while a spy diverted the attention of other, and attempted to destroy the Tylasus City but was killed by Scarlet Eye.

"Condemn?" Scarlet Eye chuckled lightly. "Anything else?"

"The leader has to take responsibility for this matter, apologise and resign! If not, the Holy Solar Festival that is a celebration for the Emberwings will mark the beginning of a war between us!"

"What?" There was a clamour amongst the audience. Never had they imagined that the Divineflame Empire's purpose in coming here was to declare war!

Scarlet Eye's personality was quite open. Was it possible to get him to apologise and resign?

When those words exited the envoy's mouth, everyone felt a chill down their spine, as if a vicious ancient beast was staring them down. This was the imposing aura that the strong unwittingly gave off, filled with a sense of danger.

"Is that so?" Scarlet Eye narrowed his eyes, and the fire elemental giant opposite him took quite a few steps back. The terrifying energy emitting from his body reached the Morning Star realm.

This member of the diplomatic mission was actually a Star rank, and that was not all. A few of the other fire elementals behind him had an abrupt change in their physiques, their bodies emanating powerful energy undulations.

"With just a few Star ranks? That's hardly enough!" Scarlet Eye's half-closed eyes opened slightly, as if he was stating a fact.

However, all the Emberwings knew that their leader was already at the brink of fury.

"The Military Office does not permit anyone humiliating our leader!" Bowens stood up, crimson energy covering his entire body. With a wave of his hand, military officials charged out and surrounded the diplomatic mission.

Seeing Bowens taking the initiative, Scarlet Eye's brows lifted. "Bowens, you should first"

At this moment, he suddenly turned his gaze north-west. *Rumble!* An immense blast sounded from that area.

The earth swished along like a metal plank that floated on water, drifting up and down. Giant waves rippled, and a large number of cracks appeared, spewing crimson lava and scorching flames.

It was as if there was a large flame demon underground. The cracks that formed were like a spiderweb that extended in the direction of Tylasus City.

The moment these cracks closed in, the tremendous mountain that the city stood on would completely sink, and the city itself would not be spared.

"Haha Scarlet Eye, do you feel touched that this emperor came to congratulate you personally?" The earth split open, and a large arm that could cover the sky emerged from within, filled with flames and red lava.

Scarlet Eye's expression was the most stern it had ever been. "Archibald"

Accompanying the large hand was the frightening suppression of power at rank 5, causing the many Emberwings to feel suffocated.

A rank 5 Expert, The Divineflame Empire's emperor is here!

Scarlet Eye's expression was somewhat dark. He knew that if the other party's attack was successful, the entirety of Tylasus City would suffer great losses, and many high-ranked officials and nobles would die. Hence, he had no choice but to make a move!

A high-pitched cry appeared as a phoenix abruptly appeared in the sky, brilliant flames surrounding its body as its scarlet wings collided with the arm.

*Boom!* The earth and sky seemed to disappear in that instant, and everyone fell into a daze. When their eyes could finally see again, they saw the giant fire phoenix that Scarlet Eye had turned into circling a flame giant that seemed able to support the skies. The two battled further into the distance, but the residual energy undulations still inspired fear.

"Go!" Bowens' expression was grim as he cried out. Flames with energy at the Star rank blazed on his body.

*Swish!* The military officials seemed to act on a conditioned reflex as they headed straight for the diplomatic mission from the Divineflame Empire, with some soldiers and nobles following behind.

Among the Emberwings of the Atlan Union, true nobles trained up to at least the eighth level of Fireplume, the Sky rank. None of them was weak. There were even a few Star rank experts keeping watch, but not revealing their strength. However, the diplomatic mission of the Divineflame Empire was not a pushover either. There were a few fire elementals who had already broken through the Star rank, and in that instant the two sides had reached a deadlock. Flames and lava flew everywhere, destroying the square where pledges of peace and victory were to be made beyond recognition.

....

"Our people have already acted according to plan. All that's left depends on you!"

A distance away from the square, in a residential building. The original owner had long since disappeared. The walls were filled with red runes, revealing a maroon luster. Some of the blood had yet to dry, and droplets of it were still dripping down, causing long blood-red lines to form on them.

Within this building, a few people dressed in black robes were watching the scene in the square from afar through the window.

The fire elemental delegation acted immediately and began to fight many military officials and nobles. Such an act caused chaos among the spectating commoners.

The attacks from the fire elementals were ruthless. If lava brushed across a commoner's body, it would reduce them to ashes in an instant. On top of that, the military officials and the nobles of the union didn't really bother themselves with protecting them. As a result, a huge number of the people watching died, resulting in great casualties. The mix of piercing screams and feeble cries for help were filled with the taste of horror.

Many commoners of the union were wailing, pushing everyone else as they tried to leave the blazing hell that was the square. This resulted in the chaos intensifying, leading to more innocent deaths.

"These souls filled with hatred and fresh blood are the best nourishment for our spell formation!" An aged voice sounded from within the mantle of a black robe.

"Don't worry, my friend. Us of the Mobius Organisation always trade fairly!" The old man's voice was as piercing as an owl's screech, and would cause goosebumps on anyone who listened to him. Yet, the fire elemental opposite him did not seem to mind.

"The chaos we're creating can only last for a while longer. You'll need to make a move quickly!"

"Alright, alright!" the old man cackled, touching a dark green metal bracelet, "How's the set-up on your end?"

White noise sounded from the bracelet, followed by the voice of a middle-aged man, "Enough flesh and blood have been gathered. It's just difficult to obtain vengeful spirits full of resentment. Only 80% of the charging process has been completed."

'That's not enough!'The old man thought as a contemplating and calculating expression climbed on his face as a blue light flashed across his odd demonic eyes. He looked at a particular direction looking at a group of four people, two pair of men and women. And as if feeling his gaze, one of the women looked at him and nodded her head.

The women informed three of her partners and they formed a tactic understanding as they isolated their enemy together and waited for the final signal.

Away from them, the group from the Allied Kingdom also received a particular signal as they also moved together in a standard movement.

'Let the bloodbath begin, this pandemonium shall mark the rise of a BloodMoon!' The old man smiled coldly and said to the people around him "On my command, begin!"
