MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Vampire God

Chapter 940 Passing The Verdict

Drax heard his sentencing and somehow felt delighted instead of feeling punished.

After he received a physical body, he had increasingly begun feeling like his existence had no defined purpose, however, with Max appointing him as the steward of the Rajput family, he now knew what exactly was his purpose in life.

He had to maintain and protect the Rajput capital as well as the Rajput family which was a noble and important role to fulfil.

" I accept" he said as Rudra released him from his prison and branded him with a slave contract using the authority of the queen.

Now for the next 1000 years, even if Drax did feel like betraying the Rajput family he would be checked and balanced by the queen which would let Max and the other family members have a peace of mind regarding his loyalty.

With that matter resolved, Max turned towards Rudra and nodded calmly at his brother who nodded back in a silent understanding.

" I'll see you soon brother, at the Rajput Capital, I have some domestic affairs that I need to wrap up today, but I will be with you within 12 hours" Max said as Rudra signalled for his two wives to come near him.

Wrapping Ruby and Naomi in his arms, Rudra said " Okay, I'll wait for you and my nephew, I have domestic issues of my own to resolve meanwhile" as he teleported instantly, leaving a scorched earth behind him as he warped through space.

It was quite a showy exit, however, could anyone really complain?

Rudra was the supreme lord, and he pretty much did as he pleased.

But with Rudra gone, Max's eyes turned dead serious once more as he had a crowd of rebels that he needed to face.

This was his moment, the dynamic of power had shifted completely and all the vampire lords gathered outside were now at his complete mercy!

If Max wavered here, then he would fail to ever consolidate unparalleled power, however, if he ruled with an iron fist today, his reign was sure to be prosperous and unopposed for several centuries to come.

With that mindset clear, Max walked out to face the waiting crowd of lords with the angry gaze of a monarch as the second he walked out conscious, All hell broke loose as the various lords prostrated themselves before the King.

" My King, you have woken up-"

" My King, how delightful to see you alive and well"

" My King, this loyal servant has been crying for 16 nights and 16 days for your speedy recovery, it seems like the heavens have finally answered my call"

" My King, my adolescent daughter keeps insisting that she would only marry you and no-one else, she has fallen madly in love with you and will be very happy to hear that you made full recovery"

" My King, your victory over Dracula was historic, we your servants greatly laud you over this achievement"

The lord's began speaking at once and said several words of flattery and Goodwill, however, although they said the words as sincerely as possible, Max had the [ mind reader ] skill activated and was able to see what they were really thinking.

' Holy hell! Didn't they say he was never waking up?'

' Fuck! Why are you not dead?'

' Fuck, for 16 days I've not attended matters within my own territories and am loitering around the halls of Dombivli like a moron, you better not screw me over after all this effort'

' They say you are a horny bastard, I'm throwing my beautiful adolescent daughter for you to enjoy, just take her and spare my clan from your ire'

Max read the real thoughts of the clan leaders and was disgusted.

Scoffing, he said " Silence…"

Instantly, the entire hall fell silent as nobody even dared to breathe loudly.

From being at the council of lord's just a few months ago where the various leaders would not back him to be king, to being able to command them all to shut their mouths and eliciting absolute obedience, Max had come a long way.

" The victory over Dracula has been achieved and I'm alive and well! Thank You various Lords and Ladies for worrying about my health, however, I'm completely fit and fine and in no need for your concerns " Max declared as he took a slow walk around the room giving his enemies a frightening smile that informed them of their impending doom.

" That being said, It's interesting for me to see how the faces that have been here for the last 16 days over concerns of my health were not with me when I was taking down our greatest enemy.

Back then as I summoned you all, everyone of you shared regretful letters or outright refused my command, yet now you roam my halls and drink my blood?" Max asked as shivers ran down the spine of the various lords present.

A little bit of Max's killing intent began to leak which made a lot of lord's feel weak to the knee as they began trembling.

" My lord please try to understand, the reason why the Mistborn clan could not make it was because-"

" I WILL NOT HEAR IT!" Max immediately cut off the lord who was trying to justify his circumstances as he did not wish to give anyone a chance to justify their decision to not join the final war.

" The law is clear, the clans that did not participate in the war will have their merits reduced for insubordination.

You will see your taxation increased and your compulsory military presence doubled.

As to how much each clan will be punished will be dependent on case to case basis but trust me when I say this, ALL OF YOU will be punished.

Our greatest foe has perished and I will fulfil my promise of leading the vampire society to unparalleled heights, however, I won't be able to do so with Lord's like you working under me when you actively undermine my authority.

I don't care if your children take up the throne or your uncle's, all the clans who did not participate in the raid need to undergo a change in leadership in the next 30 days, else the Bloodfall will launch a war against them and declare the ruling clan rebels" Max said as he delivered his verdict without any room for negotiation.

His verdict was harsh and the nightmare of every Lord in attendance as the faces of everyone present, collectively turned pale hearing Max's decision.
