After getting their fun upon returning to the house, Kai gathered everyone inside his room.

Michelle, Tasha, Ayaka, and Sofia sat next to each other. Leah and Devain sat in front of them, with Kai sitting in the middle.

"Without wasting our time, I am going to say this. All four of you need to get stronger." Kai stated with a serious expression. "The enemy this time is far more powerful than we can imagine, so it's best to do it as early as possible."

"Get stronger?" All of them turned to Sofia, who had experienced it.

"Yeah. I am gonna do whatever it takes to power you up." Kai nodded and turned to Leah and Devain. "I think it's fine to tell them about our enemies, right?"

"We will obey Our King's decision." They lowered their heads in unison.

"King?" Michelle squinted her eyes.

"Tasha, Michelle, I'm sure you know my identity, right?"

"A protector?!" Tasha and Michelle drew a gasp.

"Yes. I am the current Human Race Protector. Of course, I only knew about it when I told both of you my identity. Before that, I had no idea." Kai shook his head. "But the reason why we could visit the Oni Village was due to my identity."

"Are you telling me that there are many other intelligent races other than us?" Michelle asked with a frown.

"No." Leah shook her head. "Every race has the same intelligence level. In the past, the Magic Particles or what you called Magic Power are scattered to the entire planet. It was so rich that you S Rank Magicians in your classification system was just a random strong person.

"I'm sure there are many records about it, including 'Monsters', which is basically the mutation of Magical Beasts.

"However, because of the continuous usage of the Magic Particles, all races gradually exhausted the Magic Particles and our power gradually became weaker.

"After a long period of time, there were many wars and destruction because of power sovereignty. The races who exhausted their Magic Particles would soon get invaded because they had no more way to restore their power.

"Hence, the entire world fell into ruin and those who survived decided to gather together without having power in their body anymore. They started growing as a colony… Humans, elephants, and other races adjusted themselves to the new environments.

"Most of the evolution process had been explained in the basic history, so I won't explain about it. At that time, humanity managed to become sovereign with their technology, ruling over many races. Or what you called Ancient Technologies.

"We had no record when that happened, but there was another catastrophe, the same one as the one you recently experienced…

"The purpose of this incident was to stop humans from ruling the entire world, so many Protectors were born after that. This planet became chaotic once again until finally, the King of Uruk, King Gilgamesh, decided to sacrifice his life to kill those who wanted to destroy humanity.

"Those people resided in the bottom of the ocean and once resurfaced with the name as Atlantis. And they have been aiming at us for several thousand years.

"For example, there was another one that destroyed ancient civilizations like the Maya Tribe or Ancient Egypt or other tribes. The only reason you couldn't understand how the humans managed to build such a magnificent thing was due to Magic Particles.

"To weaken humanity again, they killed the sovereigns of those tribes that were rumored to be another Protector…

"And after so long, the next generation of Humanity Protector or you could call it the King of Humanity, has been born and he is sitting here with us." Leah finished her explanation with a bow to Kai.

"Kai is Humanity's King?"

"Catastrophe?"

"Other Races?"

"Ancient Civilizations?"

Leah nodded with a serious expression. "Due to how ridiculous it sounds, there's no way humanity can accept it. Hence, we, the last truth seekers, followed King Gilgamesh's order to end this long-suffering by destroying the race that wants to destroy our humanity."

"And Kai is the one?"

"Yes. Now that everything is clean…" Leah bowed one more time to four of them. "It's my honor to meet you, my queens."

"Queens?" They exchanged looks with a weird expression since they couldn't easily accept such a status.

Kai also knew that. So as to avoid making this room awkward, Kai said, "I want to get the strength to go against them. What do you think about our current force?"

"I apologize first, but truth to be told, we stand no chance against them." Leah shook her head helplessly. "First of all, the duty of the king is to fight another king. Only you are capable of defeating their Protector. We will properly help you, so please rely on us.

"After that, the Mermaid King still has ten commandants. The current 5th and 6th fighters have been eliminated, but it's still not enough.

"From our current situation, Ma'am Arba can fight their Princess, whose strength is only second to their king, on equal ground. If I combine my strength with Devain, we can defeat the number two. This way, we still need to gather people to defeat the remaining six." Leah then looked at her brother. "My Brother can be looking for information around and delay the news of your arrival, so I will be the one teaching everyone here most of the time."

Kai thought for a moment. "So, there are still six. What do you think about my teacher?"

"I haven't fought against her excellency, nor I have enough information to conclude her current prowess, so I can't say anything regarding her."

"If I told you she is stronger than Sofia and Roselyn combined?" Kai asked with a serious expression.

Sofia and Leah widened their eyes, surprised by his statement.

"…" Leah thought for a moment and nodded. "If she can get a bit stronger, I believe she can defeat one of them."

"That's good." Kai nodded and pointed his finger at the four girls. "I don't know if we have enough time to cultivate them, but if they can join together to defeat two, I think it's enough, right?"

"Yes. I am not looking down on them, but the time is too short." Leah shook her head. "Of course, I'm saying this when we both have an equal condition."

"What do you mean?" Kai asked with a frown.

"You may have underestimated the power of a Protector, my King. If Mermaid King indeed came to the surface, he would bring a tsunami with him to make sure everyone could take advantage of the water to power them up. Even if they couldn't utilize a hundred percent of their power, they should have seventy percent of them. It was far more powerful than their usual fifty percent."

"…" Kai sighed.

"Tsunami?" The girls were confused, imagining the Mermaid King as a walking natural disaster.

"Two more S Rank Magicians from the US Base, three S Rank Magicians from the EU Base, and one from United Asia. Do you think they can do anything?"

"If they form two groups, they should be able to buy us enough time." Leah nodded.

"Two huh…" Kai pinched the bridge of his nose. "This means we have five… Only need one more person. However, I can't really find someone who can do it. If we allow that one to destroy our people… It's not even funny.

"As for the others, I hope our Generals and Soldiers could handle them too. But with the water advantage, I'm afraid we will be overwhelmed." Kai tried to come up with a way but to no avail.

"The only way is to have two of the queens handle one each." Leah's tone was unsure because she didn't want to endanger them.

"We can talk about this later. For now, I want everyone to get stronger. Okay?"
