SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

"What do you mean that you have been aware of Elsa?" Silva asked.

"That's nothing to be worried about. The Dark dragons have always been in touch with the demon kings, but for some reason, Elsa's mother never allowed her to contact us. However, we knew about Elsa.

And judging by the fact that you and Elsa give off the same energy, it's easy to know that you are a dark dragon," Elaine explained.

"I'll take your explanation, but with a grain of salt," Silva said.

"That's more than enough. I'll leave you now. I do hope that you'll be on good terms with us in the future," Elaine said, and the connection was canceled.

"It seems the demon kings are more informed and powerful than we expected," Drake said.

"How come you never told me that the salt dragons have been in connection with the demon kings?" Silva turned and asked Drake.

"Because we never knew. There was no way any of the dark dragons that lived before would tell us anything about such.

We were merely guardians; our importance was not that high. The only time we were treated well and as partners was during the time of Elsa's mother, Elsa, and then you.

Dragons are innately prideful, and the most prideful are the darkness dragons. They view all life as nothing beneath them.

There's a reason why you make decisions without flinching. You can eradicate thousands of them without care.

And that reason is your dragon blood—it heavily suppresses any signs of weakness, as a dragon can't have that at all," Drake spoke.

"Alright, that makes sense. We shouldn't dwell on the message we received. The most important thing for us is to start building our kingdom.

I have lots of things that I have thought about and am ready to discuss with you. So everyone that is here, head to the council room of the castle," Silva said.

The council room was a room that much resembled a classroom, with Silva sitting at the front and everyone facing him.

It was used to hold high-level considerations and discussions for the betterment of the kingdom.

It was a very impressive room, and Silva wondered why it was not built elsewhere as a building of its own.

As they were about to move, Amber ran to Silva.

"Can I come, Silva?" she asked pleadingly.

"You work for the demon kings. I don't think I want you listening in on my plans," Silva said.

"But I love you, and love goes over all that. If you ask me to stay quiet, I wouldn't utter a word to them," Amber said.

"They could exile you for betrayal, you know that, right?" Silva said.

"Then I'll come and stay with you. I think that would be even better," she said.

"Fine, do whatever you want," Silva said and left.

When all the Guardians, siblings, friends, Dawn, Gallan, Fang, and the forcefully included demon candidate Amber were seated, the meeting could start.

The only people that weren't here were parents, because why would he let that emotional lot come here?

The things he had begun doing were out of the realm of normal, and it churned their stomachs every time, even though they knew he had to do it.

He was tired of seeing the forced smiles on their faces all the time.

Silva took his seat facing everyone. He cracked his knuckles and then spoke.

"Welcome, everyone, to the first official meeting of the Dark Dragon Kingdom. There's a lot I'd like to explain to you, discuss with you, and also tell you.

Firstly, in all honesty, the takeover of this kingdom was rushed due to certain reasons, anger being the most crucial one.

I had wanted it to be a slow and well-thought-out plan, and though we won, we still suffered some casualties—lives lost before they could see what they fought for.

But their sacrifices have allowed us to sit in this room without any issues at all.

At first, I was taking my time, plotting the takeover with well-detailed plans and planting the needed people.

Like, for instance, not many of you know this, but I started a mercenary group, and they were handled by Dawn. They grew to become a big deal in a short time.

They were supposed to be the soldiers I'd brainwash and use against the kingdoms, though they are dissolved and most of them fled to another kingdom.

Though we won this, we are still a very disorganized and small group, and so we have to fix that early. So I had a discussion with the two smartest minds in the kingdom, Drake and Lily.

With their help now, we drafted what we will be doing. Now I'll read the first document we compiled concerning the population and the amount of space we have," Silva said and pulled out a group of papers.

He placed them on his desk and began reading from them.

"According to data, our kingdom has over fifteen small towns, with each one capable of holding up to five hundred people and a thousand for the bigger ones.

That may not seem like a big number, but when added together, we have a population that hits ten thousand from the small towns alone.

The kingdom is not a very large one, and so this is already a big number, to be honest. Then we look at major cities.

There are six major cities, the capital excluded. And each of those cities holds a range of five thousand to fifteen thousand people.

Putting all that together brings us close to eighty or ninety thousand people. Due to the war and everything, the exact details have been lost.

Also, the humans have left, so we can't count, and it would be a hassle to start a full calculation to get the real number. Hence, we will use the estimates.

Now, all this brings us close to a number of a hundred thousand in population, of people ranging from different works and spheres of life.

The next is the capital. It alone housed over thirty thousand people due to the size and opportunities that filled the capital.

So this brings us to a total of a hundred and thirty thousand in estimated population for this kingdom across the board."
