Chapter 1417
They’re all on their way? Blood Orchid Ancestor thought . Let’s wait . We’ll wait until they all arrive .
Firefly True Master felt that the origin of his miniature universe was being swallowed . The situation would be grave after five days, but he was far from crumbling . Besides, even he wasn’t brave enough to fight the Sector Beast, so he didn’t want to ask Blood Orchid Ancestor to do that .
******
Days passed . Even an era was like a blink of an eye to true gods, not to mention a day . They all thought that the miniature universes were very close to each other, yet now, Firefly True Master was resentful that the distance between miniature universes was too large . If only his miniature universe was close to the original universe!
“Ah!” Firefly True Master couldn’t have been more worried .
The fourth day after the Sector Beast started to devour the origin of his miniature universe, there were already four true gods outside it . Two of them were from the first universe era while the other two were from the second universe era .
“Everyone,” Firefly True Master said, looking around at Blood Orchid Ancestor, surrounded by red flowers, a true god from the skeleton race who was tall but made up of bones, and a blurry being made of water . These true gods were all looking at Firefly True Master . They did not act . “Everyone,” he said again, anxiously . “That Sector Beast is eating the origin of my miniature universe really fast . Half of its origin is already gone . If we let it continue, even if my miniature universe can survive, I won’t have any chance to transcend incarnations if my origin is destroyed . “
“Firefly, do you really think we are enough to deal with that Sector Beast? If we could, the original mind wouldn’t make such a scene and ask for help from the entire Universe Ocean . “
“Let’s wait, Firefly . Let’s wait until Nine-Headed Devil Master arrives . He’s one of the eight great overlords, so we can just follow him . “
“We alone can’t be of much to help . “
They were indeed friends, but even Luo Feng had decided to let his Mosha body go and die when fighting Sector Beasts . Clearly, all the great beings in Universe Ocean were being careful . They didn’t dare to underestimate the enemies .
“Firefly, you can go yourself . Be careful and stay in the supreme true treasure palace . As long as you stay in there, you can at least survive .
******
Three great overlords were rushing there this time: Milky Way Horde Leader, Nine Remoteness True Master, and Nine-Headed Devil Master .

Milky Way Horde Leader and Nine Remoteness True Master were from the original universe era, so it would take them a long time to arrive . Comparatively, Nine-Headed Devil Master was much closer .
******
The eighth day after the Sector Beast started to devour the miniature universe origin .
“Should I go or not…?” wondered Firefly True Master .
He felt like he was losing his mind . He feared that his universe origin couldn’t last long . However, if he went to fight the Sector Beast alone, he might be killed instantly . Including Firefly True Master, there were already eight true gods .
“It’s been such a long time . “
“Our ancestor might not be able to hold it anymore . ”
All the other universe masters from the Firefly race standing aside were worried . However, when it came to fighting Sector Beasts, they, as universe masters, couldn’t do anything to help . After all, with burning godly power techniques and machine-type valuables and so on, the power gap between universe masters and true gods was vast . Even 100 universe masters couldn’t rival one true god . How many universe masters were there in Universe Ocean? If there were more than 100, they might have been able to help, but there were only a limited number . Which meant that when it came to fighting Sector Beasts, universe masters weren’t able to help whatsoever . The weapons of choice were true gods .
Of course, Luo Feng was an exception . Luo Feng had the inheritance from Duan Dong River, and he also had the inheritance from the World of Jin . (The Godly King of Jin had died, and with Luo Feng’s authority in the World of Jin, he could read all the inheritance he wanted . ) He alone had two supreme inheritances, which would have made many great beings jealous—even within the ancient civilization .
Hong!
A gleaming golden spaceship appeared out of nowhere and flew toward the miniature universe like a streak of light . After seeing that golden spaceship, all the true gods, including Firefly True Master, were exhilarated .
“It’s Nine-Headed Devil Master . “
“It’s Nine-Headed Devil Master . “
“It’s the spaceship of Nine-Headed Devil Master . ”
All the true gods were overjoyed, and Firefly True Master was elated . He swung his body and flew toward Nine-Headed Devil Master, yelling in excitement, “Nine-Headed Devil Master! I’ve been waiting for you!”
A towering being exited the spaceship . He had the body shape of a human being, and he was tall and built . However, on his neck were nine distinct heads, and each one looked ferocious . The head in the middle was larger than the other eight heads . All of them glanced toward the eight true gods . He was Nine-Headed Devil Master .

The natural appearance of Nine-Headed Devil Master was actually that of a strange beast with four hoofs and nine heads . However, after entering the World of Jin, he had found out that the creatures in the World of Jin were divided into tribal warriors and strange beasts . Since there were tribal warriors from the World of Jin who had nine heads, Nine-Headed Devil Master had altered his form into a humanoid shape .
“Nine-Headed Devil Master,” everyone greeted .
“I’ve talked to both Milky Way Horde Leader and Nine Remoteness True Mater . ” Nine-Headed Devil Master stepped through space with large steps . He was rumbling, and all the other great beings shut up to carefully listen to him speak . He looked around . “They’re heading here from the original universe . Firefly True Master is from the first universe era, so his miniature universe is too far away . It might take him several days to arrive . “
“Devil Master,” said Firefly True Master anxiously, “by the time Milky Way Horde Leader and Nine Remoteness True Master get here, my miniature universe may have already crumbled, and even if it hasn’t, the origin might be dried out already . “
“You’ve already told me that, Firefly True Master,” said Nine-Headed Devil Master solemnly . “This Sector Beast is indeed able to swallow the origin of a miniature universe quickly . It’s been only eight days… If your miniature universe was any farther away, even I might not have been able to make it . “
All the other universe masters present nodded seriously .
“The First True Master also said that the Sector Beast is indeed dangerous, and the worst-case scenario, there might be more than one at a time . ” It was a true god from Divine Eye race with a single-eyed phantom who was talking . There were two true gods from Divine Eye clan there at the moment .
“That’s right, I’ve talked to Divine Eye as well . ” Nine-Headed Devil Master nodded .
“Devil Master… If we wait any longer, I—I…” Firefly True Master was exceedingly worried, and the universe masters behind him were also gazing expectantly at Nine-Headed Devil Master . They didn’t have a say in any of this .
Nine-Headed Devil Master nodded . “Relax . Milky Way and Nine Remoteness can’t make it in time, but we can’t wait any longer . We need to strike now… Theoretically, there’s still a long time before this universe era ends, so this Sector Beast shouldn’t be very powerful . If we cooperate, we can deal with it . And even if we can’t, we can at least survive that Sector Beast . “
Everyone agreed . Yes . Nine-Headed Devil Master was one of the eight great overlords . Even Illusion Heart True God and Divine Eye True Master could survive the nest of Sector Beasts, not to mention Nine-Headed Devil Master .
“I’ll fight the Sector Beast first,” said Nine-Headed Devil Master . “I’ll fight it so that it isn’t able to swallow the origin of the miniature universe . In that way, I can stall time . When Nine Remoteness and Milky Way get here, we can kill it with one shot . “
“Yes . “
“Sounds great . “
“We just need to stall time, and when Nine Remoteness True Master and Milky Way Horde Leader get here, we’ll definitely win . ” The assembled true gods weren’t afraid at all now .
Nine-Headed Devil Master nodded . “Okay . Let’s act together . However, Firefly True Master, you’ll be the vanguard . “
“Vanguard?” Firefly True Master, whose face was covered with wrinkles, appeared dazed .
“This is your miniature universe . Do you expect other great beings to attack first?” Nine-Headed Devil Master turned around and looked at him . “If you don’t want to do it, we can just wait here and let your miniature universe be eaten by that Sector Beast… We can wait until Milky Way and Nine Remoteness get here . It’s safest to make attacks together . “
Firefly True Master said instantly, “I’ll be the vanguard . “
“Okay, let’s go!” Nine-Headed Devil Master said directly .
Hong! Hong! Hong! Hong! Hong! Hong!
Everyone was taking a supreme true treasure palace, and only those from the same race—like the two true gods from Divine Eye clan—shared a supreme true treasure palace . As for those who were from different races, they all sat in their own palaces .
With Nine-Headed Devil Master in the lead, they all teleported together .
******
The Sector Beast with a golden body and a tail was extending curves from its own body toward space, swallowing the universe origin . Sector Beast Morosa was quite relaxed .
“Huh?”
Suddenly, Sector Beast Morosa was startled . The area covered by its inherited technique could sense that a team was charging toward him, and the team was composed of nine great beings .
“Finally?” Sector Beast Morosa’s eyes glinted ferociously . “I thought they were weak, but it seems they’re as powerful as my two slaves . Just come . I haven’t eaten any lives from Universe Ocean . “
Suddenly, all the supreme true treasure palaces showed up, and the space condensed . Apparently, the space was sealed . Nobody could teleport to flee .

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
