CHAPTER 117 AWKWARD SITUATION

The two nod their heads; they know just how important the situation is for their alliance. If they lose here and Shadow's prediction about the attack on the Falcon Kingdom comes true, their alliance will definitely crumble.

"You can leave the talking to me; not to brag, but because of my mythical class bloodline, most foxes here admire me; in fact, even Queen Marleigh wants me to stay in this kingdom; too bad for them; you are the reason that I survived in the first place." She smiles slightly and leaves with Ban.

The two bring with them the elites of their army; it will definitely look bad for their kingdom if they leave their king without any sort of protection, even though they know for a fact that he does not need them.

As the two leave, Vixen finally turns serious, and she starts speaking: "That was too close; our two kingdoms nearly shed blood. I have made many friends in the Fox Kingdom, but what they had done to Big Brother is something that I cannot forgive. I was actually ready to lay an ambush on the noble foxes."

Ban is not surprised; after Shadow's disappearance, his importance only increases in the hearts of all the subjects of the Eligan Kingdom; they will definitely go to war for him.

"So, who stopped you? She must be someone powerful to be able to hold you down." Ban knows that he is stronger than Vixen, not because of his potential but because of all of his experience and his new innate ability, together with the fact that his spirit is nearly immune to her illusion and the strength of his body.

Even with all of this advantage, his chances of winning are still not a certainty; there is still a forty to 45 percent chance of him losing; his defeat will lead to his death. That is why he is surprised that someone was capable of reigniting her killing intent.

"It was Queen Marleigh; she knows what I am capable of; she is worried for her subordinates; other than those hidden fossils hiding deep in the kingdom, only she is capable of fighting against me." She snorts, clearly prideful.

Ban chuckles. "Your race is born with different types of gifts, but the restriction between your bloodlines is just too great. Humans can also sense this, but the bloodline suppression is not that big of a deal towards strong-willed warriors in our race."

Vixen nods her head. "Humans are born inferior compared to most races, but they are one of the top-ranking races in this realm. Your numbers and intelligence are just too great for any race to exterminate your kind; meanwhile, those that are born with heaven-defying talents can usher in a new era towards your race that will last for thousands of years."

Ban laughs out loud: "It seems that it is Shadow's time to usher in a new era of prosperity for the human race."

Vixen smiled slightly. "Not for just the human race; there is discrimination towards other races, but Big Brother will definitely create a territory that will accept all races."

Ban shakes his head. "Not all races, but it will definitely be a paradise for hundreds of races. I cannot deny that there are some races that will definitely not be accepted in our kingdom."

The two return to the capital city of the Fox Kingdom; waiting for them were Queen Marleigh and the Fox nobles, whose heads were lowered, which was a shock for the majority of the population of the kingdom.

Queen Marleigh looks behind them but does not spot the person that she is looking for. She is relieved but at the same time disappointed, and she wants to seek the advice of the person who managed to create a kingdom that hosts people of different races.

"Queen Marleigh," Vixen greets, but unlike in the past, her tone carries a hint of hostility; it seems that she still hasn't forgiven them yet.

Queen Marleigh just smiles politely; she does not blame her; it was their kingdom that bared their fangs at the ruler of another kingdom; this action would have caused a war if it were not for their special circumstances.

"I apologise for my subjects rude actions. I hope that our relationship still continues to stay strong." She offers a handshake to bury their differences.

Ban's eyelid twitches; he is holding back from lashing out; in fact, the soldiers behind him were also experiencing the same thing.

Queen Marleigh notices this, and she is shocked. Her interest in Shadow increases exponentially, and to be able to garner such a reaction from his subjects, it seems that she is still underestimating him.

Vixen takes a deep breath. Deep in her mind, Shadow is telling her to calm down. He is worried that if she attacks right now, every soldier behind her will also attack.

She smiles, but in an awkward manner. She shakes Queen Marleigh's hand. Her stiff action can be seen by everyone, causing the hearts of the people in the Fox Kingdom to ache. In fact, all of them see her as a goddess; her bloodline was their hope to grow stronger, but because she belongs to another kingdom, this has been troubling them.

Now that they have seen her reaction, it is as if a sledgehammer slams into their hearts. Disappointment and sadness flash in Queen Marleigh's eyes. No matter what their kingdom offers to Vixen, her heart and loyalty continue to stay in the Eligan Kingdom.

"The Eligan Kingdom accepts your apology and hopes that our alliance continues to stay strong." Her eyes are flashing with hate even after saying this, but her actions become more natural. Vixen decided that she would not return to this kingdom for the next couple of years.

Besides, now that Shadow has returned, they can finally travel to other worlds. He will definitely need their strength, and they can slowly and secretly amass it. Once they reach enough power, they are certainly going to bare their fangs on both their enemies and allies.
