Intromethide:"Everyone is on their knees!."
Suddenly a huge pressure hit my body. My feet were unable to withstand that pressure and we all fell to our knees to the ground. No matter how hard I fight, this pressure is not at all reduced, even the strength within my body cannot flow.
After everyone knelt down, the pressure became lighter and finally disappeared, but no one dared to stand up. I just felt cold sweat begin to seep down my back.
Really horrible. I've never met such horrible people. If they intend to invade human territory, won't all humans be wiped out?!.
I just lifted my head and looked at the little girl sitting on the throne very quietly while looking at everyone kneeling. There was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth that made her look like a very charming little girl.
"You can stand."
The little girl's voice sounded very childish, but it was also gentle and pleasant, not the sharp voice of the usual girls.
After that voice, all the knights in the room began to stand in an orderly manner. Despite the standing orders, none of us dared to stand up, we could only stay on our knees and look at the little girl.
There was no dangerous aura from the girl. Instead, he gave off a feeling of calmness and dependability. I felt like a struggling commoner, and begged the king to help me, then the king accepted my request for help. That was the feeling he gave me. Feelings that cannot be explained by words, but can be felt.
Seeing that we were looking at her, the girl smiled and from the glint under her eyes. I could see flashes of such a little pleasure from him. Not because I was sensitive to someone, but the little girl did not deliberately hide her interest when she saw us.
Suddenly I felt movement in my pocket. A moment later, the token from the Arene girl floated in the air and flew towards the little girl sitting on the throne. The four tokens floated in front of him and emitted a beautiful silver light.
"Token Moon Palace?."
After he noticed our token, he looked at me and the other token holders. His eyes suddenly turned into golden pupils with a very strange, but also amazing, circle of red rings.
Her eyes that were staring at us became brighter and her smile became deeper. The little girl nodded slightly.
"It seems very disrespectful if I don't introduce myself first. I'm Filia, lord of Moon Palace."
His introduction was very brief, but it could explain his position and what strength he held. He waved his hand and the token returned towards me and the others.
"Do you know the meaning of the token?."
I'm very confused. No one knows what the function of this token is.
Lusian:"Y, Your Majesty. If you'd like to, could you explain it to us?."
Filia:"The person who received this token, means that he is a member of Moon Palace. By becoming a member of Moon Palace, you deserve our protection. But, you must swear allegiance to Moon Palace, can you?."
I was shocked when I heard the meaning of the token. If that token holder is going to get protection from Moon Palace, shouldn't I be afraid of something anymore?. But, if I want to become a member of Moon Palace, I must swear allegiance to her. Is something like this worth it?.
I looked up and saw my brother and the others. They also look confused and uncertain. We looked at each other for a while, but couldn't make a decision for now. This choice is too difficult. If we swear allegiance, we fear that they will fight against humanity. Seen from anywhere, they are not a human race. If that were to happen, then we would definitely be forced to fight against the human race and become traitors of our own race. It's something we don't want as human beings.
Criss:"Before we make a decision, can I ask you one question?."
Philia:"Yes."
Criss:"Are you going to be the enemy of mankind?."
Philia:"Hahaha... For the size of a youngster, it seems like you are quite brave. There are only two kinds of people who will be my enemies. First, he was the one who wanted to hinder my ambitions. And secondly, they are the ones who want to antagonize me. No matter which race and who, if they belong to one of those people, then I will not hesitate to exterminate them. But if they don't belong, then I won't care too much about them. I'd rather live side by side with them."
After that answer, everything in the room became silent. No one spoke a word. Even my grandparents did not speak. Maybe they are waiting for us to make our own decisions.
But the answer he gave was still very ambiguous. He has no intention of antagonizing man, but if man hinders his goal, he will also go to war with mankind. Then, what is the purpose of it?!.
If its purpose contradicts or endangers the interests of mankind, I doubt that humanity will not fight back. Surely mankind will fight and fight with it.
Julius:"I'll join."
Prince Julius suddenly spoke and shocked everyone. No one expected that prince Julius would promise to join the Moon Palace.
Dorma:"Julius, you..."
Julius:"Grandma, I'm sure of my choice. In this world, where is there anyone who can tolerate the existence of a barrier to his plan?!. I know what Grandma was worried about, but according to grandma, with their current strength, isn't it very easy to exterminate mankind?. If indeed the purpose of the Moon Palace was to antagonize mankind, then we would have long since become extinct from this world. So I don't think it's necessary for us to worry too much."
Hearing the explanation from prince Julius, I suddenly realized as well. There is no need for humans to worry too much. With their strength that big, it would be easy to annihilate the human race if they wanted to. But today, humans are still living peacefully, it means that they do not want war with humans.
I was also a little moved. With the strength they showed, I don't know how much profit I would be able to gain if I joined them. Forget the protection of the Moon Palace, just by having a little knowledge from them, I am confident that the empire can develop into a top power in this world.
Filia:"Very good. If you want to join, then use that token to injure your hand and let that token suck a little blood."
I stared at the token with a slight hesitation. When I glanced at Prince Julius, he had already scratched his index finger with the edge of the token to bleed. The blood dripping onto the token was suddenly absorbed like water being dripped onto the surface of a dry sponge.
The token that had absorbed the blood was luminous and shattered into silver light particles which the light particles then fused into the body of prince Julius.
Liez:"I.... I don't want to join."
I was shocked when I heard Liez's words. In a situation like this, we wouldn't know what would happen if he refused to join, but Brother Liez refused him, he has immense courage. I also wanted to reject it, but I also had a little doubt whether to refuse or agree to join.
Phil:"Say the reason."
In his voice, there was absolutely no anger or happiness. It seems that our choice has nothing to do with him at all.
Liez:"If, if I join, wouldn't I be on the opposite side of the humans?!."
That's also why I want to refuse. No matter what the goal is, but if we join forces, we will still be considered to be leaving here humans.
The girl stood up from her chair and stood in front of us. There was no dangerous aura from him. But as he approached, a huge pressure came upon us. It is not a pressure like a heavy burden at the beginning, but it is a pressure from the bottom of the soul, like a rabbit meeting a tiger. Although the tiger does not intend to eat it, the rabbit will still feel scared and run. That's the feeling I feel right now.
Filia:"It seems you have a certain misunderstanding. From the very beginning, the human race and the beast race were not hostile. They have coexisted."
Doglas:"What do you mean. Since ancient times, races of humans and monsters have always been hostile. How can you say that the two races coexist?!."
Philia:"The frog at the bottom of the well.!"
After saying that, he turned around and went back to sitting in his chair while looking at us.
Philia:"Your enmity and the beast race are regarded only as meaningless petty quarrels. Since the beginning, the beast race and humans have been working together with various other nations to fight against Extraterrestrial Beings and The Void. With countless numbers between humans and beasts in the entire quadrant, it was only natural for there to be a small quarrel. Don't even you humans have disagreements between you?."
Everyone was shocked to hear such a statement. Keep in mind, during the first war and the gray period war, the number of humans and beasts fighting reached billions and millions of victims. If such an amount is referred to as a minor quarrel, I don't know what he would call a war.
Suddenly the entire throne room turned black. We were all transported to this black world. In the distance, there were many shining stars. Although it seems that we are not stepping on anything and are in the black void, in fact we are still in the same place.
Eleina:"I, illusion. Is this an illusion?"
Filia:"This is not an illusion, but a projection. It'll project the vacancy of Altera's upper-level quadrant."
We approached one of the distant stars. As I got closer, I saw countless floating objects in this void. The objects floated in the void by turning their backs on the ball of light in the distance. As far as the eye could see, I only saw metal objects hovering like this with different shapes and colors.
Philia:"The object that shines like a star is a ball of universe. What was inside the sphere was an incomparably vast universe. All those floating objects were Alterian warships. You can never see how many ships there are because the line of ships stretches billions of light-years. However, there's no point in you seeing this because you won't understand."
We heard what he was talking about and kept staring at what was around us. We kept moving closer and closer to the ball of light. As I approached, I noticed that the floating object turned out to be very large in size and even the smallest fit for a country.
As we passed by a warship, I extended my hand to that ship. My hand pierced through the thing, but from one of the small windows, I could see a race of humans and ferocious beasts gathered in a room in strange clothes.
Lusian:"A, what are they doing?."
Filia:"They were preparing to wait for the coming of the Extraterrestrial Beings to attack Altera."
Our gaze continued forward until it was very close to that ball of light. Although it looked very small, but after approaching, I couldn't even see its shape because it was too big.
We continued forward and seemed to pass through a very thick white barrier. A moment after that, we arrived at a very dark place. I don't even see a speck of light in this place.
I don't know if we're moving or staying still in place because there's nothing to point to. Not long after, I saw a white line in the distance. The line was composed of countless dust and stones.
The smallest stone was only the size of a pebble, but the largest, was much larger than any stone I had ever seen before. Slowly, there was a light in the distance that looked very small.
All the light in the distance was seen to be blue, then it turned red and finally all the light disappeared completely.
In just a few seconds, we started to slow down and the red light came back into view and then turned blue and became visible again.
This time the light became bigger. There was a giant ball surrounding that ball of light.
Filia:"It is a star and the one surrounding it is the planet on which living things live. There are twenty planets circling this star, but only one is visible today because each planet is so far away."
While hearing what he said, we continued moving forward and approached the star.
Philia:"I have adjusted so that the light may be received by the eye and will not destroy it. If you look at its brightness directly, you will be instantly blind because the absolute magnitude of this star is only about 3 which makes this star much brighter than the sun in your world."
As it got closer, the size of this object could not be imagined. Many people think that a star is a ball of light or a jewel hanging in the sky. But as I got closer, I knew it was a very hot fireball.
"B, fireball. Are stars really fireballs?!."
"It's impossible."
"Beef lies."
He did not explain further and then went on another trip. The ball of light again turned into a red band of light and eventually disappeared completely leaving only darkness around us.
Then we stopped again in front of a very large blue ball. The blue ball was also surrounded by many warships.
Philia:"This is Eration, where I come from."
Kemi approached and finally saw the blue land and sea. Below, many creatures that stood in the air and on the islands flew at an enormous size. On the mainland there are also many people who cannot be counted. All of them were wearing armor and weapons that were shiny and looked extremely strong.
Lusian:"This, what happened."
Lowen:"S, very strong."
Doglas:"This, is it true that humans can be this strong?."
Philia:"They are men and beasts ready to fight. All that was floating in the sky right now were those sixth level gods."
"God...!"
Everyone is surprised. Gods are existences we cannot imagine. Although we call the god level a war, but we actually do not know how powerful the god is. Now I know. Just from these images, I could feel an extremely terrifying strength emanating from their bodies. I can be sure that just one glance, we'll all die.
Finally we saw a large two-story flying island. Above it was a gigantic city and a silver palace higher than a mountain. Many silver dragons were flying around the island or perched on the roots of large dangling trees.
In a large square, there were many knights who had firm faces with weapons in their hands. They lined up very neatly with a large number. To my surprise, most of these knights were women. Other than humans and beasts, many kinds of monsters that I had never seen before were all also lined up neatly without the slightest sound as if they were waiting for something.
In front of those knights were many blue-armored knights who were all women, just like the knights who were escorting the little girl. Facing this line of knights, there were five high throne seats with different designs. One throne in the middle was silver and white with a statue of a Phoenix bird. And one of the two thrones on the right looks like a throne formed from the tangle of roots of a giant golden tree, and the other one is like a throne composed of various pieces of metal and gears purple gold.
The two thrones on the left have different designs as well. The nearest throne on the left has a shape like a giant insect that is very terrible with a front claw in the form of a sickle. Another one was like a throne composed of many bones as white as beautiful pearls.
Under the scorching heat of the sun, the five thrones reflected an extremely beautiful and sparkling sunlight, like diamonds. The knights who stood neatly before the throne were full of adoration in their firm eyes. Under the scorching sun, they did not frown at all. Not even a single drop of sweat was visible.
A moment later, there were many flashes of light of various colors. Many figures appeared and knelt beside the throne.
"All on their knees."
A tall woman with black armor kneeling before the throne spoke to give the order. Behind his back were six sharp feet like the tip of a terrifying spear. All the knights immediately knelt down without speaking a word.
The sound of the armor rubbing gave a pleasant sound when it sounded very regularly. A short while later, ten colorful lights appeared. Five lights instantly appeared on the throne seat while the other five stood beside the throne seat.
The five who stood beside the throne, I could not see what their figures were like as they were all covered by a curtain of light.
"Moon Palace's Five Supreme Lords, subordinates welcome your arrival."
The five figures that appeared on the throne were five outstanding female figures with frightening auras. The five figures looked at all the knights below with a nod. Looking at those eyes, everyone would feel inferior for no reason.
Philia:"This was one of the great wars of the past."
The girl spoke while looking at the five majestic figures. His eyes showed longing and seemed to recall the distant past.
Philia:"It was me and my four sisters."
He stood up and seemed to want to grab the back of the figure that appeared in the picture. As she said that it was a picture of her and her sister, I suddenly noticed the woman sitting in the middle. She wears white clothes with silver and blue ornaments. On his head was a beautiful blue crystal lotus-shaped jewelry.
However, she was holding a black scythe with a terrifying skull head, which was in stark contrast to her graceful and gentle appearance.
Her figure was very different from that of Filia who was currently standing before me. Although there was a resemblance on his face, but the one that appeared in the picture had a tall figure, while the one in front of me he had the figure of a small child.
I don't know what caused it to become like this, but with such power, I'm sure there will definitely be a story all its own. After all, humans never knew what kind of method the beasts had.
In the silver-haired woman's hand, appeared a crystal as big as an adult's arm with a beautiful seven-colored luster..He slowly raised his hand and the crystal shattered, disappearing among the void.
A moment later, all over the island, there was a pillar of white light that shot far into space. There were hundreds of light pillars that shot up into the sky. Finally, a transparent white shield covered this entire majestic giant island.
Filia:"All stand up!."
All the knights and people kneeling on the ground started to stand neatly together, facing the figures that were on the throne.
Philia:"Prepare for a great war. For the glory of Moon Palace, fight to the end."
"By Moon Palace, fight to the end!!"
"By Moon Palace, fight to the end!!"
"..."
The sound of cheering was like making the entire sky shake. There was not the slightest bit of doubt or fear in all of their eyes. Everyone wanted to fight in full force for honor and confidence.
If only the empire had warriors like this, wouldn't the empire be a very powerful country?!.
Filia:"Tier three down will fight on the surface of the planet, while Tier four and her bag I order you to guard the entire Moon Palace from the dirty hands of the Extraterrestrial Beings."
"As per the command, Your Majesty."
Filia:"Then..."
He made some very detailed orders for a while until all the troops got the task. Finished making the arrangements, the entire square fell into a state of silence.
I don't know how long I've been looking at these projections, but I can't feel the passage of time because what I'm seeing is really incredible. I don't know how to reveal this whole majestic scene. Starting from the black void and countless armies of humans and beasts. This... I don't know anymore.
Time continued to pass and suddenly, in the blue sky, countless black cracks appeared. The entire sky was like a sieve with many gaping holes showing endless darkness behind it.
Filia:"It seems to have started."
"Filia, it looks like we're going to have some fun hahaha...."
"I wonder how many bodies I can get..."
"This is an opportunity to test my new weapon... I can't wait."
"Hey, you're gonna help me gather food for my kids and materials to make a lot of homoculus."
"Humph, your disgusting flesh creature. I must've destroyed all the material."
"At least it's better than the iron cans you made."
"No matter what, Tekno is the future."
"Haha.... What are you talking about. Bio is always the way of the future."
"Stop fighting you two."
"Humph" 2x.
.....
As the five figures spoke to each other, the holes in the sky took out all sorts of monstrous large creatures of various shapes. Many humanoid figures were flying from within that void. They were like monsters that were somewhat like humans with whole bodies covered in abstract brown armor.
In addition to the sky, on the ground were also many figures that suddenly appeared. There are many strange creatures that fill the surface of the planet. Whether on land or at sea.
"They're uglier than I imagined."
"Well, at least we won't have any pressure to cut it up."
"Well, that's right."
Philia:"All the troops, get ready."
From all over the island floating in the sky, many troops were either flying into the sky or descending to the surface to face off against the creatures, as if they were all bees coming out of the hive.
On this island, the cast lands began to move. When the ground split, many giant doors opened. From within the ground, various metal flying objects appeared that filled the sky. At the bottom, there is a phoenix and crescent emblem.
Not just on this island. Other flying islands also have many flying objects of different colors and shapes, indicating their individual identity.
The five figures on the Throne were also standing at this moment. All around them appeared many rectangular cards that floated up and continued to revolve around them.
Both sides started moving. Without the slightest cue, the entire army began to clash and a fight broke out. The figures with extremely frightening strength, they also began to clash in the air. A single impact can mess up the sky and break big waves, and create a tsunami hundreds of meters high.
A variety of skills that are very stunning in displayed alternately. One attack can destroy all the common sense I've known all along. The greatest technique of the thousand great-great-grandfather ferocious beasts, might only be a meaningless trickle of water in this war.
All the figures of Moon Palace were also moving. Everything turned into a flash of light and disappeared from the square with the blink of an eye.
The five figures joined together hundreds of figures floating in the air. They are not fighting yet. I don't know what they're waiting for, but seeing from the looks of it, they're waiting for something.
None of those hundreds of figures spoke. They kept waiting patiently. Although they did not move, but no one dared to approach them.
Suddenly, from the void appeared hundreds of humanoid beings who were also extremely powerful. They faced each other calmly.
"Wswutsla...!"
"Guys... Their language is really like a gargling person."
A large tall man with red armor said. I didn't even suspect that such a thing was language, I thought that the humanoid creature was just hissing like a snake.
Filia:"Dragon, isn't that similar to your voice?."
Dragon:"Cursed Silver, you better watch your words, before I hit you."
Philia:"118, I won a hundred and eighteen. Let's count how much you've won."
"According to my computer calculations, Dragon wins by 0.000%."
"You Moon Palace are really arrogant and annoying."
"Detestable men. Creatures like you are not worthy to mention the name Moon Palace."
"Just because you hate men doesn't mean you can curse all men."
"Hey, you guys still get into a fight at a time like this?!."
Even though they were facing extremely terrifying creatures, but I did not feel any tension between them at all. The mentality of the people who are called gods is really ordinary Laur.
Filia: "I don't want to waste a lot of words on garbage."
His clothes suddenly turned into a golden armor with six large wings on his back. Each feather is pure white with a very beautiful gold and silver pattern. White flames and golden lightning flashed and enveloped the wings, making them like burning fire birds.
«World Creation: Silver Flame World»
A circle of light appeared on his back, and he immediately dashed towards those humanoid creatures with a black scythe in his hand.
Seeing him go towards the herd of monsters, the hundreds of still calm people also immediately made a circle on their backs and ran after His Holiness Philia.
The hundreds of figures in the sky started to enter the battle. From the first impact, they produced shock waves and terrifying energy explosions. All the fighters who were thousands of meters on the ground instantly evaporated into dust due to the impact.
The other fighters immediately moved away from the area of the hundreds of gods fighting with fear. One strike, one strike could annihilate thousands of powerful fighters that I don't know how many times stronger than the strongest fighters I know.
This is the war of the gods...
