"My help with the Sacred Ground? It seems like it has reached the activation criteria, then," Celis replied, not looking very surprised. Rean had told him about it before, after all.
"We believe so." Phex nodded. "Also, it seems like the Zasfins want to participate in the opening of the Path to the Realm of Gods."
"What?!" Celis immediately went into a rage. "Those fuckers now want to use the demon beasts' method? Tell them to go to hell! There's no way we would allow them to come together."
Rean and Phex's groups scratched the back of their heads when they heard that. Naturally, Celis noticed it, asking in a fit of rage, "You can't be serious, right?" Celis got angrier the more he thought about it. "After all you've gone through, you're also giving them a pass into the Realm of Gods? Can you be any more idiotic?"
Roan, on the other hand, was pretty calm. "We had to allow them to come. In fact, for them to come together was a must for our plans to work. If not, calamity would befall us in the future."
Celis knew that Roan wasn't the type to create excuses, so his words caught his attention. "Calamity? What kind of calamity? They lost the war, didn't they?"
"They did." Roan nodded in response before continuing, "However, they still have a lot of strength and Ancestor-level Zasfins in their Soul Rulers headquarters. Also, there are the Emperors, Celestial Land Leaders and so on who are also at the same level except for the Rank Ten Soul Mark."
Rean continued from there, "If all the Stage Nine Demon Beasts take this chance to enter the Path to the Realm of Gods, who will stay behind to protect them and the humans? Without demon beasts of a similar level to you all, the demon beasts' territories will be taken back in a flash. We need them to come together."

"This..." Celis couldn't find a flaw in Rean and Roan's argument. Indeed, if he was in the Soul Rulers' shoes, he would definitely take that chance to take everything back. Not only that, without Stage Nine Demon Beasts, the Zasfins could even take the Demon Beast Continent itself. They would truly become the masters of the world.
Phex also added, "However, this trade wasn't for free. They will have to help to activate the formation in the Bestial Sacred Ground. We still don't know what we need to do. Still, it's a lot better to have so many top experts in this endeavor at once. Besides, everyone definitely wants to enter the Realm of Gods, so we don't need to be afraid of a trap from their side. If anything, they'll be entering our territory, so they should be the ones afraid that we could try anything."
Celis couldn't help but ask, "Can't you take the chance they enter the Bestial Sacred Ground to get rid of them?"
Roan shook his head as he replied, "It's not that easy. If we really do that and all of them decide to activate the Soul Mark Immolation Art at once, they'll be an unstoppable force for a short amount of time. We can't guarantee that even the Bestial Sacred Ground would leave that event unscathed. For the sake of the new power balance of this world, we need this plan to work for both sides."
Eventually, Celis decided to give up, knowing that he didn't have any argument that could beat the twins' reason. "Fine! Let's do this." Celis then looked at Phx's group before asking, "So, what do you need me to do? These two brats told me that the number of Divine Demon Beasts on the planet made the Bestial Sacred Ground react. Naturally, that means I'm part of the reason."

"Exactly," Darian confirmed. "We will need all the Divine Demon Beasts to come to the Bestial Sacred Land later when it stabilizes. As we mentioned before, it would take a few years for that to happen. However, a lot of time has passed since then."
Darian then looked at Xaon, who had gone to check the Bestial Sacred Ground. "The Bestial Sacred Ground's energy has stabilized a lot since that time. To be honest, we could already enter it the way it is if only the Stage Nine and Zasfin Ancestors come in. However, since we also need Kentucky, Gulan, Red, and Senior Celis, we'll need it to become calmer. That means we'll probably have to wait around one more year. That's because we can't guarantee we can protect anyone else other than ourselves in there."
"Do you know what we will have to do inside?" Celis asked in response.
However, everyone shook their heads. "No. First of all, there's no guarantee that the Path to the Realm of Gods will open. The activation of the Bestial Sacred Ground's formation might have a completely different purpose that we don't know of. It's just that the Path was the only other thing present there other than the Blood Pond that increases the demon beasts' power."
Rean then added, "That's why I'm going there as well. As a Formation Master from a more developed world of formations, I might find out something. The Zasfin Ancestors also have Formation Masters in their midst, so that will also help out a lot."
It was then that Sister Orb's voice echoed in Rean and Roan's mind, telling them, [Well, the Soul Gem System Mission says you need to activate it, so it shouldn't be anything bad for us at the very least.]
The twins agreed with Sister Orb on this. Of course, they couldn't tell the others about this topic. Not to mention that it was better to keep the experts in their group on guard than to let them relax.
"Very well." Celis finally yielded in the end. "One year from now, I'll head there with everyone else. Just make sure you won't let the Zasfins take me away again, idiots."
Phex's group immediately nodded in response. "Definitely. We don't want the same thing to happen again, so we'll protect Senior Celis even if we have to die in the process."

Gods How I Hate Nature
While there are always choices in life, lately they’ve all tended to skew between bad, terrible, and suicidal. Tome finds himself typically choosing the latter. As if people and plants consistently trying to kill him wasn’t bad enough, he finds himself sent off to a Mage Spire along with a self-righteous other worlder (as though there were any other kind). Add to this some powerful figures in black, a sadistic instructor, an uptight law keeper, and Tome just wants to go back to his room, down a pint, and forget about everything… But, when someone starts a fight, especially someone bigger and stronger, you bide your time and strength. Before you can get revenge, you have to settle for surviving and slowly gaining power. That means accepting the most suicidal choices, doing the jobs no one else will do, always smiling, and not slitting that other worlder’s throat… (The story will incorporate comedy, but it will be a dark story. This won't be a happy, uplifting tale, but it also won't be too morose or depressing. Though if you're rooting for the other worlders, then I suppose it will be...)

Dear Humans,I am very sorry that I have to inform you about the upcoming invasion of our world by foreign forces. We, the management, want to sincerely apologize for allowing this oversight. Sadly, the degree as to which we can interfere in this conflict is severely limited as this would allow the opposing party to act in a similar manner. But please don't worry, contingencies have already been implemented to maximize the effect of the little support we can give. Thus we ask you, to work together in stemming the coming tide, so that humanity may remain on the victorious side. As long as humanity beliefs, there is hope.Yours truly,God of public relations
8 75Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince - Backstories
Sucked into another world from Earth? Check. Magic, mayhem and a fight for survival? Check. Not sure who's gonna survive or get killed off at a moment's notice? Check check check. This line of books contains the stories for many of the prominent characters or guildmates (prior to meeting Trey) surrounding Trey's character in the book: Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (which is still currently ongoing) Reading these books before the main book can be done without ruining anything (though the character you're invested in may disappear from this book into the main storyline after a couple dozen chapters), but that's up to you ^.^

Fermboi was a man of one ideal: make the weak strong. When his rebellion against the king proved futile, he was given another chance at life. This time, he sought to do nothing after realizing the hopelessness of it all. Aventina wanted to do nothing more than to follow her father’s footsteps. On a retaliation raid against her tribe’s enemies, her brothers perished. Spared by a leader of her enemies, she returned home to find herself the chief of her tribe. Bolahulag, half-civilized and half-barbarian, half-lowborn and half-royal. Raised in his mother’s civilized tent in a sea of barbaric shelters, Bolahulag was hesitant to follow his paternal way of life. After a battle between a civilized king and his father, Bolahulag was sent as hostage to learn the economy and military of the nation his father defeated. Derai knew nothing more than being an orphan, but when a merchant took her in, the world she thought impossible soon became a reality. Monghe, stuck in a school exemplifying strength for most of his life, began to understand what he needed to do in order to be strong instead of weak. Story is mostly about nothing. Fermboi does most of the nothing. Aventina does most of the military things. Bolahulag does a balance of economy and military. Derai focuses on economy. Monghe spitfires what it means to be a typical hero. Hopefully this is enough to give a general idea to people who don’t like going blind aside from the work being purportedly “good.” Who am I kidding, my writing is terrible. I hope it improves though.
