More than two months after the death of the Gods who had encountered Callie, the forces of The Adamant Land sent more reinforcements to the Spiritual World with two more Gods.

However, as the forces of the Spiritual World had expected, these reinforcements were not going to their world to return to the war as it had been previously. They were going to that planet to protect what was left of the Mechanic Empire on Minos’ home world.

The objective of the group currently traveling through the universal wormhole between those two worlds was clear. To defend their lands and maintain their position with as few losses as possible.

While the reinforcements were traveling through the universal wormhole, the new Mechanical Emperor had finally awakened from his seclusion to reach level 100!

…

In the Hall of the Gods of The Adamant Land…

An alien native of the Mechanic Empire who looked very similar to the Mechanical Emperor Minos had faced in the Spiritual World was currently at the headquarters of his organization with his advisors and experts.

He had advanced much faster than the Gods in the Spiritual World could, something that was natural to expect, given that his talent was greater than that of most of the natives of that planet, and his resources were better, too. .

But with more than four years since the start of the war in the Spiritual World, many things had happened outside of his plans or expectations.

As such, he had a terrible look as he faced the men on the outskirts of the large oval table where he stood in the main position, from where he could see his planet. .𝒎

“I think you all owe me an explanation. I went into seclusion in a state that had more than 20 Gods. But to my surprise, I now only have 9 level 100 experts at my disposal.”

“Your Majesty, the situation in the Spiritual World has gotten out of hand. The war was catastrophic for us from the start.” Said a level 99 Demigod, advisor to this new Mechanical Emperor.

“Our experts predicted correctly. If we let that damned Minos Stuart survive, our chances of winning the war would be nil.” One of the Gods there added.

Another of them said. “That’s not all our experts predicted. I remember very well that there was a possibility that Minos Stuart’s forces would decimate our state if he wasn’t killed in time…”

“Tsk! Do you think we’re in such danger?” The new emperor asked as he formed an even uglier expression, not liking the tone of his men.

“Unfortunately, that’s a possibility. The new level 100 woman who has appeared in the Spiritual World is particularly powerful. Perhaps a few more of our Gods will perish in that world, even without us trying to take over those lands.”

“Yes, just because we’ve changed our goals doesn’t mean that the forces of that world will tolerate us.”

“So now that you’ve destroyed my forces, what do you want us to do?” The young emperor asked angrily.

The order was not to send reinforcements until he had finished his seclusion. But these men had done so to avoid losing all their efforts in the Spiritual World. That brought them to the current situation, where they could no longer afford to lose, or they would soon be at risk of their historical enemies acting against them and destroying them in Minos’ place.

“We have to make peace with that world. Admit that we lost the war and got land on that world. When we improve our numbers as Gods in the future, we can try to dominate that little world again.” Suggested one of the Gods there.

“As strong as they have become alongside Minos, they will hardly be able to get any stronger in the next thousand years. In the meantime, we can recover some of the strength lost during this period and prepare for a resumption of the war.”

“The most important thing now is to maintain our position and keep what has happened in this world a secret. As long as Irpoll doesn’t discover our weakness and the value of this world, we can turn things around and achieve great things.”

The men there voiced their opinions while advising the local sovereign.

The new Mechanical Emperor was furious, but he had no choice. Faced with the defeats his state had already suffered, he could only do as his men suggested.

…

Meanwhile, in an area between Albano and the Black Plain Empire, various metallic bodies or blue creatures lay here and there in a large area covered in mist.

There was a large gorge where the rocks were blood red, and the aura of death nearby was strong like nothing else in the world.

At the bottom of this place, several graves were open, and only one man was working.

This being had a strange appearance, looking like a patchwork of several different corpses that formed a single body.

‘Where’s the bloody Minos?’ The curse of this area thought to himself as he dug yet another grave for the enemies he had killed in recent months.

Several aliens had come to him during the war, and they had all died at his hands. So many bodies had fallen there that this conscience of the curse in the area was still occupied until now, even considering that the last enemy he had faced had died months ago.

As he buried the bodies of his enemies bit by bit, this creature couldn’t help but think of Minos, who had promised to help him when he became stronger.

Unfortunately, all he knew about Minos was that the young man was alive and no longer in the Spiritual World.

How did he know that? Well, apart from having interrogated the aliens who had come to him, he could also sense that his agreement with Minos was still valid.

So he had been waiting for Minos to return when he would have his answer as to whether he could really leave this place where he had been for millions and millions of years.

‘Sigh! I think that’s enough for today.’ He thought as he finished off another corpse before looking in the direction where there were several essences of the aliens, something he had been consuming since the beginning of the war of the worlds.

…

Meanwhile, the group of aliens in the Spiritual World were hiding on the floating islands of the Ancestral Sea, the core of their territory in this world.

They knew that reinforcements would soon be arriving and what the new orders were for them in this conflict. But while they had to hide and protect themselves from Callie and Aurae’s attacks, these aliens were dealing with another problem.

The stampede of the Spiritual World natives who had previously surrendered!
