The battle between the Magi's Divine Slayer Force and the Divine Faith Army had been going on for several months in Gods' Tomb.
Both sides acted with impeccable military strategy, fastly securing tactical locations and establishing strongholds on the continents.
In the middle of the Gods' Tomb, hundreds of millions of warriors from the Magi World and Divinity World battled. The battlefield extended for three continents, with no side being able to overwhelm the other.
In the Lolth continent, there was an impressive magic tower, large enough to hold an adult Ancient Dragon inside it.
This tower was the Magi's Divine Slayer Force headquarters. It worked as a center of operation for the many armies, and in case of a brutal defeat, it would work as the last stronghold against the Divine Faith Army.
There was a massive hall with a majestic round table on the highest level of the magic tower. Eleven chairs representing the eleven great organizations of the Magi World surrounded the table.
Youths with unique auras occupied ten of the chairs. They were the champions of the great organizations, sent here to lead their forces, gain fame, and evolve their destinies.
Behind each of the champions, there were five individuals. Their auras were also impressive, and they were great generals in the Magi's Divine Slayer Force.
"Since everybody is here, we should start discussing our next move." The Eye Dynasty's champion, a young girl with blue hair and emerald-like bloodline eyes, spoke.
Despite her youthful appearance, no one dared to look down on the young girl. Her bloodline force depicted her as a member of the Holy Clan with a very pure heritage.
There was still one chair empty, but that belonged to the Scientia Kingdom, and they would not be participating in the first phase of the war. The only reason they put a chair for them was as a show of respect for the oldest and strongest organization of the Magi World.
Just as the conversation between the champions was about to start, someone stopped them.
"Rebeka, there is still someone missing." Those words came from a young man wearing a royal robe and black crown. He was the Aeternum Empire's champion, and his black hair and blue eyes revealed who his ancestor was.
The young Eye Holder stared at the young royal with coldness. The relation between the empire and dynasty improved after Ivar killed the Elemental Chaos Eye and Nightmare Devourer Snake-Whale, but they're far from being friends.
Of course, that did not mean Rebeka lashed out and let her emotions take control of her actions. The young girl began to think who the royal may be speaking of, and one group came to her mind.
Rebeka was not alone since the other champions reached the same conclusion.
"Samuel, we did not invite them to this meeting." A thin man with demon horns and abyssal fire coming out from his eyes spoke to the royal. His physical characteristics were the result of a high-ranking technique, not a bloodline.
"Since when did they need an invitation to do anything." The young royal showed nothing when he felt the piercing gaze of the other champions on him, and a smile appeared on his face as he focused on the hall's entrance.
"Speak of the devil, and he shall appear."
The champions and great generals heard Samuel's words right before someone pushed the hall's giant metallic doors with so much strength that it almost sent them flying away.
Magical defenses did not strengthen those doors, but their weight would make it hard for a Peak Rank 3 Body-refinement Magi to move them by force.
Everybody focused their consciousnesses in the entrance, releasing a pressure that could make regular Rank 3 life forms fall to the ground and puke.
However, the six individuals who appeared showed nothing when faced with that pressure, and they calmly walked forward.
The tallest of the group and the one who pushed the doors away was a hundred meters tall Earth Titan. On his shoulder sat a beautiful elven girl with blue hair, carrying a dark longbow.
Flanking the Earth Titan, there was a fifteen-meter tall demonic dragonborn whose weight made the ground beneath him tremble and a hairless humanoid dog with dark skin and shadows emanating from his body.
The bloodlust and wildness in these four were immense, but they showed nothing but respect to the duo in front of them.
They were a dragonborn female with six feathered wings and a gorgeous woman with demonic wings and a scorpion tail.
The six people had black armors with unique magic matrices over their bodies and runic sets covering their skin.
Unlike the other powers whose racial characteristics were similar, this group was very heterogeneous. The common factor among them was their powerful bloodline and demonic energy pool.
Only one force had those characteristics and would dare to behave so brazenly in front of the champions of the Magi World's great organizations.
The Daybreak Clan.
While they don't have Rank 6 life forms inside the Magi World or Beings of Laws looking after them from the void, everybody dreaded them due to the monster that created the clan.
Zatiel Daybreak could seal the fate of a Rank 6 life form with just a few words, and his cruelty was legendary.
Numir walked forward, closely followed by Shiyu. She looked around the room, and other than giving Samuel a slight nod, she ignored everybody else.
The champions thought Numir would position herself and the rest of the Daybreak Clan's members behind the young royal, but she sat in the empty chair.
"That chair is reserved for the Scientia Kingdom's champion." The voice came from the royals' location, but it was not Samuel who spoke.
Numir's eyes narrowed as she stared at the blond man who stood beside Samuel. He also wore a royal robe but lacked the crown, and for the way the young royal glanced at him, it was clear their relationship was not a good one.
It became clear to everybody that there was division inside the Aeternum Empire.
The man's words were clever. He did not blame Numir for anything, but her answer could offend the Scientia Kingdom, who was the Daybreak Clan's greatest ally.
"Who are you to say that this belongs to the Scientia Kingdom. Since when an insignificant Magi who has yet to awaken his True Soul has the right to speak in the name of John Erick Rebellion?"
Numir's words were vicious and made a cold expression appear on the blond man's face. The Neo-Demon female stated they were too arrogant by designating a chair for the Scientia Kingdom.
"Besides, since you are all sitting, I need to take a chair as well. Or are you telling us that the Daybreak Clan's status and contributions in the war against the Divinity World are inferior to any of you?"
Although some of the champions wanted to argue, none of them could deny the might of the Daybreak Clan. While their number was much lesser than theirs, they were like a hot knife, capable of piercing any defense the Divinity World's army put in their path.
Silence reigned for a few seconds until Samuel spoke again.
"No one here can deny the Daybreak Clan's contributions. I apologize for my cousin's words, Lady Numir. I will make sure the elders knew about his behavior when we go back to the empire."
Samuel's behavior confused the other champions, and they saw how his words offended the man by his side, but they did not meddle.
With the subject of the Daybreak Clan's status handled, everybody seemed ready to process.
Suddenly, the Earth Titan and the three Neo-Demons next to him released a monstrous killing intent and began to circulate their Abyss Aura.
The actions of the four Neo-Demons took everybody by surprise, especially when they detected that the target was an Eye Holder.
The Eye Dynasty's champion and her generals did not wait a moment before adopting a battle stance and pushing their energies to the limit. Their bloodlines gave them great instincts, and right now, they were screaming danger.
Although they would be facing someone with a Law Bloodline and with many powerful items at her disposal, none of the Neo-Demon showed the slightest sign of fear.
They were about to jump forward and fight with everything they had when a powerful voice suppressed them.
"Enough!" Shiyu's voice carried the power of the laws.
None of the Neo-Demons dared to defy her, but the demonic dragonborn spoke to her.
"Mother, that man dared to throw a lustful stare at Lady Numir. She is The Will's wife. We cannot let him live!"
The people in the hall were baffled by the demonic dragonborn's reasoning. A lustful stare was enough in his mind to take the life of an Eye Dynasty's great general.
Their target was a middle-aged man with starry bloodline eyes named Junit.
He also had a Law Bloodline, but its purity was so low that its actual level was Emperor. Junit situation was not uncommon when the parents failed to advance in the Ranks and mature their bloodlines.
The champions and great generals knew of Junit's reputation and how he enjoyed using his background to abuse females, so they believed the words of the demonic dragonborn.
Of course, that did not mean they found the logic of the Neo-Demons correct. They could not kill Junit, a great general, because he gave their leader a lustful gaze.
"Stand down. An insect is not worth the trouble." Numir's voice was calm. The entire time, she did not look in the direction of the Eye Holders.
She had detected the Eye Holder's stare before anyone else, and if they were anywhere else, she would have killed him. The female Neo-Demon would rather die than let any other man that wasn't Ezequiel from touching her body.
However, her priority as the Daybreak Forces' leader in Gods' Tomb was to think about the best for the clan.
After hearing both Shiyu and Numir, the Neo-Demons calmed down. Their killing intent was still there, but they did not dare to disobey the two women.
A peculiar light appeared in some of the champions' eyes after hearing Numir's words. Although it may sound like she did not care about Junit's behavior, it could also mean she was afraid of the consequences of offending one of the great organizations.
Junit shared that train of thought, and a nasty smile appeared on his face.
"May I know your full name?" The young Eye Holder champion made that question, making everybody remember how the other Neo-Demons referred to Numir as The Will's wife.
Numir's eyes narrowed when she heard that question, and pride appeared on her face as she answered.
"I am Numir Invictus."
Utter silence filled the hall when the champions and great generals heard that last word.
There was only one man in the Magi World that held the name Invictus and was someone who won't give a shit about their background if they angered him. A man capable of killing a Rank 5 life form in front of the Frost Monster Heart's leader.
Ezequiel Invictus.
Junit began to tremble and saw how his fellow Eye Holders quietly distanced themselves from him. Panic replaced his lust, and he saw no way of this situation.
"You will leave Gods' Tomb after the meeting is over. If you care about your life, you will remain in the capital. Invictus may not care about our background, but he is not strong enough to march into the Eye Dynasty's core and take your life."
The Eye Holder's champion spoke those words to Junit before ignoring him. She did not like the man's behavior, but he was a member of the Holy clan and could not let him die in her watch.
"Ok, now that we are all here and have handled the unpleasant matters, I say we start discussing our military strategy," Samuel spoke with a great smile, and you could see the happiness in his face when he saw how the other champions were looking at him.
