Chapter 367 The Black Fleet\'s Arrival

Over the next few days, Albion did not leave his home once and spent his time reading books in the study room and cultivating.

Although Albion didn\'t manage to advance his cultivation during this short period, it was within his expectations.

Thus, he was neither disappointed nor discouraged.

After all, the gap between Peak-stage Spirit Manifestation and True Immortal was like a vast chasm. It wasn\'t something that could be overcome overnight, even with a heaven-defying cultivation art.

On the other hand, the five dark fae maids all made breakthroughs in their cultivation thanks to the netherites supplied by Albion.

Although they were only in the early-to-middle stages of the Spirit Refinement Realm, they were still elated and full of emotions.

Albion didn\'t find it surprising, considering they were forbidden to cultivate their previous master. And by the looks of it, it\'s been years since they last cultivated.

However, that wasn\'t the only reason for their elation.

Even when they were in their branch clan back in the Ancient Darkheaven Sector, they never enjoyed such benefits as they do now.

They had to earn their cultivation resources by risking their lives. In contrast, their new master simply supplied the cultivation resources to them without a second thought.

How can they not be overjoyed to serve such a generous master?

The past few days were the happiest moments in their lives, even if those days only consisted of quiet and peaceful cultivation.

Nevertheless, such tranquil days eventually came to an end.

Rumble…!

The ground trembled, and the air reverberated as a large fleet of black airships appeared in the red sky above Netherglow City.

Without exception, everyone within the city paused their activities to look at the large fleet with various emotions such as shock, surprise, alarm, and fear.

Albion also stared outside the window from the seat in his study room to observe the situation. However, he couldn\'t learn much from a simple observation.

Only after listening to the cries and sensing the growing tension outside did Albion start to grasp the picture vaguely.

Knock, knock…

The door to his study room was shortly knocked before one of the dark fae maids\' voices was heard on the other side.

"My Lord, there\'s a situation in the city," the dark fae maid informed.

"You can come in first," Albion casually responded.

He briefly glanced at the door with his Ashura Eyes before he identified the dark fae maid to be the one with the short undercut hairstyle, whom he later learned to be called Sienna over the last few days.

Sienna was the eldest and the strongest of the five maids. Sasha, who had the long braids, was the second eldest. Suzy, with the twin ponytails, was the third. Sara, with the bun, was the fourth. And Summer, who had simple long hair, was the youngest.

Besides Sienna being in the middle stage of the Spirit Refinement Realm, the rest were still in the early stages.

Nevertheless, after Albion permitted her entry, Sienna answered, "Yes, my Lord," and entered the study room to continue her report.

"About the situation in the city, my Lord, I\'m afraid it\'s about—"

"Conscription for the Realm War, right?" Albion casually asked before Sienna could finish her end of the report.

Although Sienna was interrupted, she did not reveal the slightest hint of annoyance. On the contrary, she expressed her pleasant surprise.

"You already know about the war conscription, my Lord?"

"Well, at my level, it\'s not hard to hear what\'s going on outside, especially when the people in the city are buzzing all about it," Albion nonchalantly responded before adding, "However, that\'s not all you came to inform me about, right?"

"Right," Sienna acknowledged Albion\'s statement before voicing her opinion, "But I\'m afraid this time\'s war conscription isn\'t so simple, my Lord."

"Not so simple? How so?" Albion urged Sienna to elaborate.

"In the past, no more than five warships usually arrived to conscript soldiers for the Realm War," Sienna mentioned. "However, this time, there\'s a large enough fleet to blot out the entire sky of Netherglow City, my Lord."

"Sienna wouldn\'t find it strange if the army came to conscript the entire city for war this time. There\'s a chance that even Spirit Manifestation Realm experts and True Immortals might be unable to avoid the war conscription this time."

"But at the same time, Sienna also finds it strange that such a large fleet would come to Netherglow City for large conscriptions. After all, Netherglow City is a production city. We mostly supply the war effort with cultivation resources, not soldiers," Sienna stated.

"If such a large fleet isn\'t normal, then something big must have happened." Albion rubbed his chin thoughtfully before guessing, "Perhaps, someone important was slain in battle. What do you think, Sienna?"

"Your guess is as good as mine, my Lord," Sienna humbly replied.

"But for a large fleet of high-class warships of this scale to be mobilized, that person\'s status must be very high. Sienna reckons it\'ll have to be someone closely related to the Realm Lord."

"After all, although it rarely happens, city-level mass conscriptions only occur when the Realm Lords are prepared for an all-out war," Sienna stated seemingly calmly.

However, Albion noticed her hands were subtly shaking and knew she was not as calm as she appeared to be.

In fact, she was feeling anxious and afraid at the thought of being conscripted.

Albion didn\'t find that surprising, considering she would be forced to fight against her own kind in a battle where one side had to destroy the other.

"An all-out war, huh?" Albion muttered with an amused look.

He didn\'t expect to stumble into a rather exciting and dangerous situation after staying in the Netherworld Realm for a short while.

After pondering for a moment, Albion glanced up at Sienna and asked, "Between the two realms at war, which side do you think has a better chance at winning, Sienna?"

Once he asked the question, Sienna revealed a rare glint of pride in her eyes.

"I don\'t want to sound biased, but if it\'s an all-out war between the Celestial Fairy Realm and the Scarlet Nether Realm, the Celestial Fairy Realm ruled by our Dark Fae Clan has a better chance of winning," Sienna declared.

"Oh?" Albion was intrigued by her confidence.
