An Extra’s POV - Chapter 678

Chapter 678: Malevolent Call
Within her clear and elegantly designed resident office, Frey’ja noticed a call was being made to her through a particular crystal-like sphere on her desk.

A holographic display instantly shot up, and the figure of two girls—her apprentices—popped up that very instant.

“Hm…?” Her clear eyes beamed, but her eyelids narrowed slightly at the same time.

She wasn’t expecting them to contact her so soon, considering the nature of the mission. In fact, she was just about to have a meeting with the rest of her accomplices about a separate matter.

Still, considering how professional the two Dragon Generals were, and the immense skill they possessed in the field, she had no doubts that there had to be a reason for their premature contact with her.

With that in mind, Frey’ja granted them an audience.

“Master!”

“Master!”

As expected, her cute apprentices retained their adorable personalities despite the level of disgust they must have endured in the world of humans.

“Huhu…” Frey’ja beamed even brighter as they giggled with excitement, and she found herself laughing softly.

“It looks like you have a lot to tell me.”

Why else would they call her? Yes, these two were the closest Generals to her, and they were also her personal unit among the 7 elite squads.

Every Dragon Lord had an Elite Squad except for the Great Dragon Lord and the Death Dragon Lord. The former didn’t particularly need an Elite Squad due to his own level of power and influence—plus, he mostly acted as a supervisor or administrator, so a squad wasn’t necessary.

As for the latter, he simply didn’t desire to make a squad.

He was that weird.

Instead, he had a few powerful subordinates, but they were mostly disjointed and were appointed to different tasks. Perhaps it was due to his personality, or the fact that he also didn’t particularly need a squad.

Either way… that was about it.

The Storm Dragon Lord, in charge of the military conquest in the Eastern Continent, had the largest squad of all… but it was only second best to the squad of the Frost Dragon Of The Icy Realm.

Everyone knew that her select few members were the most competent Dragon Generals in the Empire—though they hardly did anything.

Perhaps because they were already considered ‘too strong’ to take on anything challenging. Most of them had even taken on teaching roles in the Academy, considering their sheer talent and abilities.

Frey’ja was happy to put them to good use for her in the Academy.

‘My Squad was number 4, but after the death of Ob’elisk’s Squad, it has been shifted to Number 3. But, well… I have no idea what will happen during the next Evaluation. I heard the other Lords have begun making their Squads much stronger in preparation for the event.’

Kat’erin and Shai’ya were very strong, but Frey’ja wasn’t sure they could defend their 3rd Rank position for too long.

‘I might need to add more members soon. But… I’m very picky.’

It was why only the two of them were chosen out of the several candidates that existed. With the Evaluation coming up soon, though Frey’ja thought she would have to compromise.

‘But… haa… that’s not important right now, is it?’ She removed her mind from the train of thought that she followed and returned it to the conversation.

She was right on time too, as the two girls just finished describing their experience in the human Capital. Despite being in her deep thoughts, Frey’ja still heard all they said, and she understood them just the same.

This was a testament to the advanced intelligence that Dragons possessed.

“There are a few surprises here and there, but I am pleased overall with your execution of the mission. Your speed is also praiseworthy.”

That meant she would have to shift the plan forward.

‘The sooner we get this stuff over with… the better for us.’ Was what she thought to herself. ‘I can focus on other things, like the kids in the Academy and the Evaluation coming up.’

“Let’s go over the plan, shall we?”

***********

[Moments Later]

“You probably won’t need any backup, but just to be on the side of caution, I will have some other Dragons be on standby on that day.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Per the Dragon Emperor’s orders, she couldn’t have more than two of her subordinates in the Western Continent. However, thanks to having allies, she could request for their support and contribution of subordinates for the cause.

‘Once the chaos begins, I’m sure the humans will try to escape the Capital. That would be perfect, since their protection is only limited to the walls of that city.’ She grinned widely.

The moment they stepped out, the Dragons were going to incinerate all of them.

“Ahh… what a magnificent sight that would be.” Pink hues appeared on her pale face as she drowned in the delight of the brutality that her plan offered.

“Keep up the good work, girls. I look forward to the results.”

“Yes, Master!” Kat’erin responded with her stiff, slightly formal tone.

“We won’t let you down, Master!” Shai’ya was a lot looser with her speech, but her tone still had reverence.

Not long after, the call ended.

The White Dragon Lord Of The Forbidden Valley instantly put a call across to all of her conspirators, and they began to pop up one after the other.

Their holograms manifested within the room within mere seconds.

“Tat’urius, Pro’theus, Vul’khan… I just received some fantastic news!” Frey’ja beamed at the mere display of her colleagues.

The Death Dragon Lord, Flame Dragon Lord, and Forest Dragon Lord respectively had looks of curiosity on their faces the moment she mentioned this.

Of course, she had to tell them more.

“The plan is going very smoothly. It seems the humans are already on the verge of destroying each other.”

Uproar rose from the Lords at this point, increasing the level of interest and tension within the room.

“Looks like I’ll have to tell you about everything first… about the Otherworlders, and what the Alliance has been up to for the past couple of months.”
