The Four Great Kings

When everyone heard the large bat's shout, everyone who was falling in line gave way and knelt down at the sides. As for those who did not have legs, like the serpentine man, they just placed their right arms near their chest.

Of course, Jay and Nuggets followed what they were doing.

Then after that, a large white tiger standing upright and not on his four legs entered. As the white tiger passed through the crowd, he sighed loudly and went towards the throne room.

After the white tiger, a red Minotaur entered. But what was eye catching with this guy was not of his color, but the gigantic battle axe he was carrying at his back.

Just like the tiger, he passed through the crowd and went towards the throne room.

The next one who entered was even more surprising. This guy was on his human form. He currently looked like a little boy with brown hair.

He then hopped and skipped happily as he moved through the crowd. But as he passed Jay, who was currently in his chicken form, he stopped and said...

"Woah! I haven't seen anyone from your bloodline since 300 years ago.. or was it 500 years ago... Well, who cares! Nice meeting you brethren!"

Then he continued skipping and hopping towards the throne room.

Jay then thought "He is still alive? How?"

Just as he was thinking about this, the last of the great kings entered.

The last king was part of the serpentine race, who's lower body looked like a snake. But his upper body looked like a minotaur's . As for his face, it looked like a dragon's head. What's even more eye catching was that he had black and white scales over his body.

This guy then slithered past the crowd and went towards the throne room.

After everyone made sure that all the kings are not within the area anymore, they all stood up and started leaving the castle one after another. But for some reason, Jay was still kneeling down, sweating very hard...

When Nuggets saw Jay, she immediately showed her concern and asked...

"Jay? What's wrong? You still doing okay buddy?"

But Jay was still doing as such. The reason why was because he was thinking about a lot of stuff even if it did not concern him at the moment.

"The White Tiger, Vardis. 'Red Bull' Barbas. Dragon King Ori. And Severus, the Naga King... Why are they all here? If I remember correctly, Ori and Severus were supposed to be dead already. As for Vardis, he was supposed to be in a torture chamber yet to be saved by some random player... How..."

Jay was thinking so hard since with the appearance of these four great kings, he knew that a lot of things that was suppose to happen already changed.

"Damn... I know that it is only after a year that players from all over this world start to become stronger. Right now, everyone is familiarizing themselves with the changes and busy trying to hunt monsters and stuff... Better hurry up. I need more power for the things to come in the future."

While Jay was deep in his own thoughts, everyone already left. As for the large bat, it was looking at Jay curiously. Then when it saw Jay finally standing up and about to leave the place...

"Kid... That's some interesting stuff on your mind... Especially when you said that the Dragon and Naga King was supposed to be dead already... Interesting... Mind telling me more?"

When Jay heard the bat, he cursed loudly in his mind "S**t! Mind Reading?! S**t, s**t, s**t!"

Then the bat spoke up again "Watch your words boy! Did you not learn proper etiquette in speaking with others?"

Jay then replied "Whoever you are, Mr. Bat, I'm sorry for whatever you may have heard... It was just probably due to some aftereffects happening to me due to whatever 'secret' miss Aisleen did to me."

When the large bat heard Jay, he frowned a bit before flying away.

"Kids these days... I just want to bask in the great knowledge of this world... Seriously..."

While the bat was having this line of thought, Jay and Nuggets left the castle.

Aisleen's Castle, Throne Room

The Four Great Kings and Aisleen were now facing each other and about to discuss their future plans.

The White Tiger, Vardis, was the first to speak up "Aisleen, this idea of yours, this 'Plague' you told us about, it is very interesting indeed."

Aisleen then replied "Of course it is! But I suppose the four of you wants more details with the plan I made right?"

The four great kings nodded. Then the 'kid', or the Dragon King, Ori spoke up...

"You told us that you want to create a kingdom for us beasts, the halfbloods, and beastmen. But you do know that some of us beasts that learned the 'human tongue' won't submit to your rule even if you conquer the rest of the states right?"

Then the red minotaur, Barbas shouted furiously...

"RUBBISH! The reason I came here was because you told me that you have a way to save my people from going extinct! You did not tell me anything about conquering other states!"

As for the Naga King, he just remained silent.

Then Aisleen suddenly turned into some kind of demon form. When these kings saw her took this form, they immediately shut their mouths since they knew Aisleen was serious now. She then said to them in a deep and chilling voice...

"Do you know the reason why I decided to include you guys and your kin in my plans? There is but one, simple reason... I will make all of you submit to me, beasts or halfbloods alike, and make everyone call me Queen!"

When everyone heard her, they all went furious and they started fighting each other. To be more precise, they all rushed towards Aisleen.

As for the Dragon King, he went back to his dragon form, and started breathing fire all over the place.

While all of that was happening at Aisleen's Castle, Jay and Nuggets used fast travel and went back to Murkwood Passage.

"Nuggets, before we enter the dungeon, have you learned any new skills while I was asleep?" Jay asked.

Nuggets then replied "Of course I have! I now know how to use 'Forked Lightning' and something called 'Egg Bomb.' But seriously, the 'egg bomb' skill I learned is just disgusting!"

When Jay heard what Nuggets said, he immediately said "Nuggets, make sure to only use your lightning-type spells to a minimum this time. I do not think both of us can handle it if Thundergod's Domain gets activated again..."

Both of them then went deeper into the passage and after a few minutes of walking, they arrived at a large crack on the ground.

"This is it Nuggets. Welcome to the Level 50 Dungeon, 'The Mysterious Crack'"
