Hearing this, the two sovereign ranks immediately jumped up, as the quieter sovereign suddenly shouted.

"Ian is that you?! What is going on...HELLO!? Where are you, we'll come immediately!"

However, the last thing Old Drake and the two sovereign ranks heard was a thunderous roar which revered through the messenger crystal, shaking the whole room, and the person on the other side of the messenger crystal crying out in pain before the signal broke off.

Their body stiffened when they heard the thunderous roar and the sovereign ranks were about to rush towards their headquarter when Old Drake suddenly said.

"Don't! It could be a trap and your current task is something else!!!"

Halting in their tracks, the two sovereign ranks stared at Old Drake as if he was insane and they were about to disregard his words only remembered the Drake family patriarch's words, telling them to remain on Astrix by any means.

Gnashing their teeth, they didn't know what to do because it was obvious that something bad happened on Canir, where the Drake family's headquarters was situated.

However, in the end, they still decided to disregard Old Drake's words because it was useless for them to remain on Astrix if the whole Drake family were to be annihilated by the Ice Dragon or whatever attacked them right now.

Their current intel was minuscule and the only thing they knew was something about an Ice Dragon whose roar they also heard in addition to the rumored intel that the dragon seemed to have escaped through a rift, and that it wreaked havoc.

With this, the two sovereigns who were always by their master's side concluded that it had to be the Drake family patriarch's soulbond's mother, searching for its hatchling.

It was only weird that the Dragon mother was able to venture through the rift because they knew that the rift had certain restrictions which should prevent the Dragon mother from passing through it.

However, after thinking for a moment, more than 20 years passed, and even if traveling through a restricted rift was life-threatening, mankind had yet to be explored what would happen if one were to disregard this restriction, by stepping through it without caring about one's own life.

By the looks of it, the Ice Dragon mother took 20 years to venture through the rift, driven by insanity to find her child, even if it meant that she might die.

In the end, this was a dramatic story, but neither Old Drake nor the two sovereigns bothered about the Ice Dragon mother's feelings, and it was more important to figure out what they could do to help the Drake family.

Was it better to stay on Astrix to subdue a single new subordinate or to support the headquarters from their annihilation?

It was not even worth considering the answer because it was obviously the latter as the first option was only important if the clan continued to exist.

As such, the two sovereigns were about to rush out of the room they were currently in with Old Drake standing further away when an eerie feeling encroached on the three.

Suddenly, space twisted, and the two sovereigns disappeared from Old Drake's sight, whose eyes widened involuntarily, trying to comprehend what was about to happen.

Goosebumps covered him, as he slowly started to comprehend what was going on when a small spatial portal emerged in front of him with two severed heads rolling out of the portal.

Thick blood was still spilling out of the severed head, and the two sovereign ranks' facial expressions were filled with terror, as Old Drake grit his teeth, shouting out in wrath.

"SHANEE!!!"

Only then, the spatial portal enlarged with the two sovereign ranks remaining bodies falling through it, only for an Old man with ice-cold eyes to emerge afterward

With a bloodshot longsword in his hand, he smiled cruelly, as he said.

"Hello, Drake, long time no see, you f*cking bastard!"

Hearing this, Old Drake frowned but rather than feeling enraged, a deep sensation of fear enveloped him causing him to subconsciously retreated several steps, only to bump into the wall behind him.

"Oh...are you afraid now, or is this also a disguise?" Shane asked, without showing any emotions, as he looked at the two dead sovereign ranks below him, sighing deeply.

"It's such a waste to kill such precious humans, but weren't they too weak for sovereigns?"

Shane didn't know why, but it was way too easy to kill the two sovereign ranks because he could just open a spatial tear to forcefully transport them to him, only to execute them with a darkness blade crescent.

However, it was obvious that the two dead corpses in front of him were sovereign ranks because he could clearly sense their prismarine-crystal inside their mana core, even if it was crudely made, without taking their time to make a more refined prismarine crystal.

Taking another glance at their mana core, Shane also noticed that their core seemed weird as if it was barely being held together, which caused him to eye Old Drake curiously.

"The Drake family found a way to forcefully advance Lord rank to the Sovereign rank? Good job, I guess? Unfortunately, it's useless...!"

Smiling lightly, Shane couldn't help but feel that everything went a little bit out of control, as he saw Old Drake's thunderstruck expression.

"What? Can't you speak anymore because you're too shocked to see me here?"

Blinking with his eyes several times, Old Drake was barely able to open his mouth, when he asked the most important question whose answer he couldn't grasp over the last two minutes, because everything was just too much of a coincidence to be called one.

"What exactly have you done?!!?"

Old Drake was shocked, and it was not only because Shane killed the two sovereign ranks just like that, without batting an eyelid, but rather that he was sure that the thunderous roar he heard through the messenger crystal belonged to a true Dragon and not something faked by Shane, which was the most shocking for him.

'Did he do anything to help the Ice Dragon to find its hatchling, or how could these two incidents happen as if they were matched perfectly?!'

Other than asking this himself, Old Drake was already acquainted with Shane's ice-cold gaze he saw in his eyes right now, which caused him to gulp down his saliva as he was reminded at the time Shane annihilated the whole Shore family to rescue Dalia.

'Is Jason that important for Shane, to go this far?...'

Without being able to retreat further, Old Drake was forced to see Shane leaning down as he took the sovereign's storage devices that were attached to their quantum bracelet and their Spatial rings at the same time.

Placing them in a small pouch, Shane averted his gaze towards Old Drake once again before he approached him slowly.

"What have I done?... Nothing special at all...There was just someone nice who told me where I can find the restricted rift where the Drake family patriarch got the unhatched Ice Dragon from. After that, I took a look and noticed something particular, which was quite helpful.

In the end, the Dragon mother took 20 years to venture through the rift and the only issue was that she couldn't enter Argos.

By removing the small issue she had to face, the Ice Dragon mother emerged out of the restricted rift….isn't that amazing?? The restrictions placed on the rifts can be cleared under certain conditions!!...But this is not important right now.

Fortunately, the Ice Dragon mother was weakened which allowed me to have a nice talk with her, and I think you can imagine the rest.

I hope your clan and the whole family liked my present!!"

Smiling cruelly at Old Drake, he couldn't help but stutter in fear because he knew that Shane seemed to turn insane when someone tries to hurt his loved ones.

Previously, Old Drake thought that it was only Dalia, Shane would do everything to save, but apparently, Jason seemed to be just as important to Shane as Dalia, which caused him to gulp down his saliva before he stuttered.

"Y-You are insane!! How dare you betray humanity!! Do you even know how many innocent humans you'll kill with this?!"

However, Shane was completely unimpressed by Old Drake's words

"Oh, the Ice Dragon won't attack anyone, except the Drake family, their headquarter, and whoever attacks her first. The soul contract I did is enough to reassure me that….but you don't even bother about innocent human lives, why are you a hypocrite now?!"

Shane's smile widened as he continued

"Where is your confidence from before? Why don't you repeat the words you told Jason? Do you think I'm a joke?!.... HOW DARE YOU betray Dalia and me after we have known each other for two centuries….Was this whole relationship worth nothing for you?"

Halting his steps, Shane stood right in front of Old Drake, who began to shiver involuntarily by the killing intent intertwined with Shane's mana fluctuations that suppressed him.

"Didn't you know that there is a price to pay for betraying me?!"
