The massive meteors were mere stones and ores from the top of the gigantic sprouting twig. But to those within the lands of the Planesworld, it was a gigantic beanstalk peaking up to the heavens. It was twice as high as the World Wood Tree, and the winds were terrifying above. So the heights were not good for launching attacks.

The many elements that existed above made throwing rocks or arrows impossible, unlike in the Unrecorded Pages, where many elements had died out.

Listrel met the power of the falling stone that would have surpassed the common force of those who were Crowns.

With the help of the Force energy from the two members of the Steele family, the combined power of Gennaios Steele and Katara Kyriachos is imbued in the light of Listrel Protos Endoxus.

A massive shield formed above, and a vivid Crown appeared above Listrel.

But what was surprising was that a barely visible Crown was superimposing Listrel's crown.

"...It can't be...! Those two?!" The nearby Crowns saw the power.

"A true Shield Expert! Those two are powerful shield experts!"

Many surprised cries could be heard as Listrel blocked the attack.

BANG!

The massive meteor faced an unbending shield. The shield had properties of mirrors, and a white light was reflecting the light to push it back.

"What are you waiting for? Attack it!" Listrel ordered as the Crowns began to shoot their attacks at the meteor that had lost momentum and force.

The nearby Crowns launched their attacks on the side.

As the attacks landed on the side of the large meteor, the hollow core was revealed, and the meteor cracked and broke like glass, causing an army of Darklings to appear.

At once, the ground trembled and many darklings rose up from the ground.

The armies of the Uninvolved Lands also charged out as smaller meteors fell down and smashed on the ground, and the vanguard of the Midland armies was in disarray.

"Stand firm!" The leaders of each respective team were commanding their forces to fight as Cardinals and Commanders took their fighting up front.

Ikarod smiled as he flew around and watched. The Darklings were terrifying foes. But now, under the revived spells of the Necromancers, the Eldrich, and the powerful blood formation that Nightwing created, they were able to revive over twenty percent of the slain Darklings to be used as suicidal cannon fodder.

The armies of the Midlands were forced to launch their attacks, which allowed the Uninvolved lands to move in position and cast their own spells.

The meteors of great size that traveled longer distances were further diminishing the wary guards of the army.

Ikarod held a massive club and hurled it down, mixing his attacks with many other air-to-ground attacks.

Amid the attacks of Cardinal level was a club being thrown, and as it reached the barriers erected to resist it, Grandanite Doragan emerged, and a stony giant appeared that hammered down on the Cardinal-level barriers.

BANG!

"Crown sneak attack!" The cardinals shouted, but it was too late as Gradanite's fist reached the ground.

BOOM!

The earth shook, and a large crevice formed from his attack.

There was panic and chaos, and many of the Crowns who were watching from the back began to speed off to the front lines.

As this was happening, Listrel had retreated back. As the one with the highest rank, she was naturally urged to head back to a safer place.

Listrel moved and found the object that they were looking for. Unfortunately, it was one of the paling energies that prevented teleportation of all forms.

"Tell Kyros that I'm going to deactivate it now!" Listrel spoke.

"I will tell you when. Don't waste a single second, and activate it after! They will teleport through this place to an area where Kyros prepared!" The Earth core of Eugene urged.

"I understand."

"...Now!"

FLASH!

Listrel followed and quickly activated and deactivated it.

Not a second passed when the paling lost power and returned. And with the chaos, no one was able to notice it.

"It worked."

"...Alright. Mechiel, Scarlet. I'm sure you want to go and meet him. Too bad I have to be here. But ladies, the women of Nightwing will fight you to their deaths. So we cannot meet him yet."

"That's right. We'll be heading back, but we cannot appear yet." Branze added.

"Why?" Scarlet frowned.

Mechiel chuckled.

"You think the ladies of Nightwing will give you a warm welcome? They have people of Destiny, and even if Kyros or Nightwing were to stop them, they would order the hordes of Destiny they brought to launch attacks at us."

"Exactly. There is a battle that requires Kyros and his team to be in their prime. And many minions of Destiny are with Kyros. So, regardless of your emotions, meeting with Kyros will result in a battle. And they need all the strength that they need."

"Let's just regroup with the rest. Martha and Aron are set to return. The Steele family and the Coven will be united once more! And now that the Emberdons have perfected the spatial portals to teleport us, we can finally return back to the Fortress! I want to take a bath at the rumored hot springs section that they created." Diana smiled. She was excited as she had missed everyone.

"I heard the Library has improved. They should have more knowledge than the Highlands! The trade deals with Midlands have now brought the fortress at par with Midland fortresses in terms of defenses!" Branze cheered.

"So, what exactly is our plan? We're not going to join with Kyros when the Eldrich sends their teams from outer space?" Scarlet frowned.

"The plan is that Kyros will ambush those that plan to ambush the arriving forces of the Eldrich. Then you could ambush Kyros's forces. In any case, target those of Destiny. Those are the targets."

"...Fine. The rest of the Coven and the Steele Family is arriving in the Midlands. This will be a great battle."

"I will warn you. Expect the unexpected. Remember that Folly has returned. Even with your preparations, Kyros is expecting the Midlands to lose. It will be your family that will stop the army and wipe them out."

"We know."

"Tathar!" Listrel called out as a strange energy formation circle suddenly appeared.

"My Lady!" Tathar appeared through a portal. He was on the front-lines fighting and was called back.

His appearance was unkempt and poor.

Mechiel saw Listrel summon Tathar and knew what Listrel had planned.

She glanced at Listrel, who also gave her a meaningful look.

"You look like my summon saved you." Listrel chuckled.

"The damned creatures that master Kyros brought with him was... shocking, to say the least."

"That was Nightwing. But now, accompany Mechiel and Scarlet. And... please don't fall in love with Mechiel and Kyros." Listrel raised her eyebrow.

"... I will try my best, my lady," Tathar answered. He dared not say that it would be a crazy suggestion. He knew that being with two succubi was a dangerous business.

"At least you are honest. Go. A huge battle that will wipe out the forces of Destiny is about to occur. If we are victorious, we will be able to achieve great success that will strengthen our position and stop that future where our world is doomed."

"I understand, my Lady."

"Go! I shall remain here and keep the forces at bay and ensure the teams of Destiny and the traitors of the future in the Midlands will slowly be wiped out. As for those that have prepared the ambush, wipe them all out. Not one should survive!"

Meanwhile, far inside an underground river...

FLASH!

Nightwing stood with his team next to him.

The strongest warriors of the Uninvolved Lands stood behind him.

"It... worked?" A Champion of Destiny, who was a Crown, was amazed.

"Without Breveros's bad luck, anything is possible. Let's go!" Kyros smiled.

The group began to move out.

Suddenly, Nightwing stumbled.

"Lord... Nightwing!" Angelian reached out and caught Nightwing.

Nightwing was stunned as he realized he was awake.

But a few seconds later, he realized what had happened.

"...Damn that, Kyros! He is switching to me so that Destiny will send even more forces inside! Switching to when he needs Destiny to be powerful and switching back if he needs Destiny to be weaker!" Nightwing cursed.

Krysta recognized Nightwing and could feel seeping curses.

"...What's going on?"

"Everyone. Do your best to survive. That Kyros is taking advantage of the curse of Folly to make me his pawn!" Nightwing frowned.
