"It will be the end of this world....."
Lucifer face softened as he said "But we have a 100 years,let's make the best of it."
He stepped towards his desk, sat on the chair and said,"for now, store the egg in the Treasure room with the others, the children are still young, we have to prepare for the time they would join the Academy."
"Then I will take my leave, Headmaster" Maximus bowed and left the room.
Step. step.step.
Maximus walked in the hallway, took a left turn and arrived before a huge door. The door was twice of Maximus height. There was a key hole on the middle of the door.
Maximus took out a key from his pocket and put the key in the key hole and turned it clockwise
Click..zhoom... Runes flickered on the door before going off.
Creak....
Maximus opened the door and entered. Inside were the most valuable items in the whole world,mountains of gold and pearls,hills of artifacts etc. And at the end of the room, there were 5 eggs somewhat identical to one in Maximus hand were placed. The eggs differed in colour and designs.
Maximus placed the 6th egg beside them,then walked back and closed the door and went on his way.

Royal Capital, Volaris
In the Throne Hall,
In the magnificent throne hall was a throne and atop which sat a Man with blonde hair, his presence alone made the persons sitting and standing in front of him pale.He looked at the person standing in the center and asked," Commmander Darius ,how many casualties did we suffer in this war".
Commander Darius bowed his head a little and Said,"Your Majesty, a total of 13554 soldiers died and more than 50,000 were injured but they will heal in time"
Alaric frowned and said," This time we took a major hit without even gaining anything,all this loss was for nothing".
"Your Majesty, the other empires suffered as much especially the Infris empire" Commander Darius added.
Hufff.. Alaric sighed and said," No matter we will recover this lose and get that egg back".
Thinking of that a smile appeared on his face and he asked,"How's Queen Selena and Prince Ace,is the preparation for his Awakening Cermony underway?".
This time the person on the left of Darius answered,"Your Majesty, Prince Ace is well,Her Majesty the Queen never leaves his side.The preparation of his Awakening Cermony Is going on as planned, It will be held a fortnight from now." This was the Prime Minister of the Voltaire Empire, Sainith Falcon.
"Good! Very good!, treat this ceremony as an event of the century, All Noble families of Voltaire Empire should be invited and there should be appropriate measure in Capital so the people can also celebrate the awakening of thier prince".
"As you wish, Your Majesty" Prime Minister bowed.
....
In the Royal bed chamber a woman with hair was cuddling a little baby in her embrace, The baby boy looked cute and reached out his hand toward his mother and caught her finger, Selena's face beamed with a smile as she Said," My cute son" as Ace played with her finger, she gazed outside the widow.
"I wonder what you will awaken at your Awakening Cermony"she muttered looking at the horizon. At that same exact moment a black flash of lightning flickered across Ace's eyes...
