He had an old wrinkled face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not nice, sir!\" Bret replied, removing the strands of blonde hair from his face. \"We were called in on too short notice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty nodded as he moved, Bret following behind. \"Indeed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Are we going to die, General?\" Bret asked, looking back at the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We signed for our death when we joined the army,\" Svaty replied with a chuckle, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though death from fighting monsters till your last breath doesn't sound too good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We should at least tell them,\" Bret suggested as he looked around, soldiers laughing happily about reaching the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't,\" Svaty denied firmly. \"They will lose their morale if we tell them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, sir,\" he nodded quietly, not arguing with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty looked back from the end of the deck where the other huge ships followed behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mizraim Empire has a history of ruling the sea, and even though the trip was short between the Pargoina Empire, where they were teleported to, and here...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...They still took the lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond the ships was an endless sea, with nowhere to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret looked at Svaty, who started to laugh, his greyish-black braid of hair whipped by the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never thought I would see this day in my life,\" he said, smiling as he turned around. \"....Humans working together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lumina is an old place with history going back to millennia, and even then, one can count on their hand when humans were united together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"PULL!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty yelled again, and soldiers started to slow the engine as they carved their way through the waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ships slowly made way towards the island while many moved towards the edge to look at the scenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A TREE?!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice cried from the front deck, earning the gaze of curious soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did someone say tree?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty confusingly looked at Bret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe so?\" Bret replied, reflecting his confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both walked towards the front deck, the soldiers making way for them as they moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty mumbled, his brows knitting together as he looked in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the endless sea between them and the island stood a tall tree, its top vanishing within the clouds, marked by the crimson veins of fire that glowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tree seemed to breathe, pulsating with life, the restless assault of sea waves leaving no mark on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was that always there?\" Bret asked in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now he saw the path, and he clearly remembered there was no such thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ships trembled violently as if something grazed them from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret looked down in the deep sea, noticing something crawling underneath them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt the sea calm down around them, as if obeying some spell or something beyond their understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sailing became easier as they swept into a natural harbour, waves gently guiding them towards the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that....?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The murmurs of soldiers looking at the tree started to fill the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty squinted his eyes, looking at the centre of the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though from afar, he could see an outline of a throne engraved on the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....A man sat on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty stepped back in horror, his breath caught in his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"RETREAT!\" Svaty bellowed, turning around towards the man in charge of the wheel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General, what happened!?\" Bret quickly got a hold of the panicked Svaty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"T-that ghost....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words trailed off as the ship shook, there was a crunch of timber, and sea water splashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AHHH MONSTER!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soldier yelled, making Bret's head snap to that direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let out a startled voice as a branch of the tree, thicker than a normal house and glowing crimson, started to coil around the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is happenin—?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words abruptly halted as his body got thrown in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chaos erupted in a single instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of metal crunching echoed as the coiled branch lifted the entire ship in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret shouted as he got a hold of himself, grabbing onto an edge to stop from falling into the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest weren't so lucky, half the soldiers falling into the bottomless sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head snapped back to the rest of the troops, and much to his horror, every single ship was in the same situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arghh!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He groaned, the ship suspended to its side, high in the air away from the calm sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bret!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Svaty yelled as he balanced himself at the edge of a pillar, his breath shallow from what he saw before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Digging his feet on the pillar, he took his sword out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!! But before he could try to cut the branch coiling the ship, a thunderous sound echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head abruptly turned to look at the humongous tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two figures rushed towards them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their sturdy bodies moved, gliding through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"BRACE!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret yelled, alerting the soldiers who had yet to recover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!! Their bodies crashed hard on the ship's side, shaking it violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha, this is going to be fun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broad-shouldered man wearing thick black armor laughed heartily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His bright blue hair, styled in spikes, rose along with two onyx horns on his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are too loud, brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man beside him spoke, their faces exactly the same, with the same onyx horns sticking out of his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike his brother, he had blue hair cascading down his shoulders, blood-red eyes staring at the ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They clenched their fists as a war hammer materialized in both of their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will take the left!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Khokan, the spiky-haired Asura, one of the leaders of Principalities, announced as he jumped, making the ship underneath him crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any problem, he landed on the deck of the ship suspended in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha, look, humans!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Khokan laughed, raising the hammer over his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your death is here!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!! The hammer hit the ship with full force, breaking a huge chunk of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screams of the soldiers echoed, filling the quiet sea with sounds of horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Khokan laughed as he rushed towards the surviving soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some battle-hardened soldiers raised their hands with determination. Magic circles formed as he was inches away from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!! An explosion occurred, flames engulfing Khokan at point-blank range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pathetic!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he batted out of it with no damage, sneering at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spun the war hammer over his head before crashing it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a booming crack, and the soldiers who stood in front of him turned into a pool of blood and flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another maelstrom of spells attacked him from a different ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to look at them, not even trying to evade the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attack slowly died down as the tens of soldiers on the other ship noticed him unharmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Khokan flashed a jaunty grin towards them as he pointed upwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!! And before the soldiers could look up, someone collided, crushing them instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vikoka, his brother, coldly looked at the crushed humans, holding a broken part of the sinking ship he stood on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without delay, he rushed towards another ship while Khokan did the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...M-my g-god.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret trembled violently as the destruction reflected in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body gave up, knees buckling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fifteen ships that the three rulers of the human domain sent to protect the Tomb were getting decimated without a chance of fighting back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames rose, smoke covering the sky, another ship sank into the endless pit of the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you enjoying it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret's head slowly turned to his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man stood tall, black robes flowing around him, exuding an air of ominous authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was pale, framed by jet-black hair that fell back, accentuating his sharp features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes, a void-like black, seemed to pierce through Bret's soul, unblinking and heavy with disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me, human, are you enjoying this?\" He asked again, a scowl gracing his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bret's eyes slowly drifted towards the headless body beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recognized the body...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...General Svaty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M-monster.\" Bret stammered, slowly crawling away from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like you aren't.\" He said before gazing back at the remaining ships. \"Let me show you something good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand, chains poured from it like serpents, writhing and snapping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each chain moved as if alive, slashing through the air and coiling around the massive ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hands above his head, the ships rising with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRACK!!! The massive ships cracked under the pressure, shattering as the chains crushed and tore through wood, iron, and sails alike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ships shrank into crushed balls along with those residing on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea splashed as the chains vanished and the distorted ships sank down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Humanity's greatest soldiers died without a chance of fighting back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teivel glanced beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only to find Bret with hollow eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Weak humans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He whispered, his tone dismissive as he kicked Bret off the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coiling branch holding the ship slowly loosened its grip, sinking it like the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The branch, a few meters in width, suspended beside Teivel as he moved, standing on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The branch retracted back to the huge tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Teivel!!\" A loud voice echoed, making him turn around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was our turn to fight!!\" Khokan yelled as he walked on the branch closer to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were taking too much time.\" He replied, turning around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We had just started!\" Khokan grabbed his shoulder, forcefully turning him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is Delwyn?\" Vikoka asked as he walked towards them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Within the island.\" Teivel replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who made that weak person leader of the human domain!\" Khokan growled in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader did.\" Vikoka shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Khokan grinned. \"Ha!
