Idle Mage: Humanity's Strongest Backer-Novel



Humanity's forces had successfully breached the celestial realms of Paradiso and Inferno, venturing deep into the heart of their enemies' homes. It was a monumental achievement, for these realms were vast, sprawling cosmic landscapes, each as vast as a solar system.

In Paradiso, the home of the Celestials, human soldiers moved cautiously through the ethereal landscape, their footsteps leaving shimmering trails of stardust. The air crackled with celestial energy, and the very fabric of reality seemed to bend and twist under the weight of their intrusion. With strategic precision, they established footholds and fortified their positions, carving out a fragile enclave amidst the celestial splendor.

Meanwhile, in Inferno, the fiery realm of the Hypogean Race, Blake, the Titan, led a relentless assault against the fierce denizens of this treacherous domain. Surrounded by searing flames and molten rock, his indomitable will fueled his every step. With his companions by his side, they fought their way through hordes of Hypogean warriors, each clashes bringing them closer to their goal of establishing a stronghold within this hostile realm.

In both Paradiso and Inferno, humanity's forces encountered fierce resistance. The Celestials and Hypogeans fought ferociously, utilizing their otherworldly abilities and ancient magics to push back against the invading force. The celestial realms were not easily conquered, for they were imbued with the very essence of their respective races.

Yet, humanity pressed forward, undeterred by the overwhelming odds. They fought with steadfast determination, drawing upon their unwavering spirit and the power of their newfound alliances. With each hard-won victory, humanity's foothold grew stronger, their presence spreading like a beacon of defiance amidst the cosmic expanse.

The Celestials and Hypogeans, taken aback by the audacity of humanity's invasion, scrambled to respond. Their once impregnable realms were now tainted by the presence of their mortal adversaries. Panic and confusion gripped their ranks, their sense of superiority shaken by this unprecedented turn of events.

As the news of humanity's foothold within the celestial realms spread, the very foundations of Paradiso and Inferno trembled with uncertainty. The balance of power had shifted, and the once invincible races found themselves on the defensive, their grip on their respective domains weakening.

For humanity, the establishment of a foothold within Paradiso and Inferno was a pivotal moment in the war. It signified their ability to challenge the celestial races on their own turf, infiltrate their strongholds, and strike at the heart of their power. It was a bold statement, a declaration that they would not be confined to the Blue Marble Planet, but would fight for their right to exist and thrive among the stars.

With each passing moment, humanity's presence in the celestial realms grew stronger. They had gained a foothold within the enemy's home, and from these fragile enclaves, they would launch their next phase of the war, pressing further into the celestial domains, determined to secure victory and ensure their own survival in this cosmic clash.

The Celestial Council, a group of five esteemed disciples of the Celestial God, gathered in the grand chamber of their celestial palace. A sense of urgency hung in the air as they discussed the invasion of humanity into their sacred realm.

Council Member Aries, her voice laced with concern, spoke first. "The audacity of these humans is beyond comprehension. They have breached our celestial domain and established strongholds within Paradiso. We must act swiftly to defend our home."

Council Member Orion, his eyes filled with determination, nodded in agreement. "Indeed, we cannot underestimate their resolve. Our forces are engaged in fierce battles across the realm, but we need guidance from our god. We must seek his counsel and divine intervention to repel this invasion."

Council Member Seraphina, her voice tinged with worry, added, "I have tried to reach out to the Celestial God, to seek his wisdom in this dire hour, but I have received nothing but silence. It is as if our pleas fall upon deaf ears. We must rely on our own strength and ingenuity for now."

Council Member Lysander, his gaze focused and resolute, spoke up. "The Celestial God's absence troubles me. This is a time when we need his guidance the most. We must not lose hope, for his wisdom has guided us for eons. We shall stand united and fight with unwavering determination."

Council Member Selene, her voice filled with unwavering faith, interjected, "Even in his silence, we must remember that we are the chosen disciples of the Celestial God. We carry his divine essence within us. Let us rally our forces and defend our home with all our might. In time, he shall reveal his purpose."

The council members nodded in agreement, their collective resolve strengthening. They knew that their duty was to protect Paradiso and uphold the divine will of the Celestial God, even in the absence of his direct guidance. They would marshal their forces, strategize, and fight alongside their celestial brethren to repel the human invasion.

In the face of uncertainty, they would remain steadfast, believing that their god's plan would reveal itself in due time. Until then, they would do their utmost to defend their realm, awaiting the moment when the voice of the Celestial God would break the silence and guide them toward victory.

As the Celestial Council was on the verge of concluding their meeting, their discussions interrupted by urgent news, the grand doors of the chamber swung open with a resounding thud. A disheveled soldier, his armor dented and bloodstained, rushed in with panic etched across his face.

Gasping for breath, the soldier managed to deliver his report in a frantic tone. "Council Members! The humans... they have launched a ferocious attack on our capital city! Our citizens are in desperate need of reinforcements! The enemy's assault is relentless, and our defenses are crumbling!"

A collective gasp filled the chamber as the gravity of the situation sank in. The Celestial Council exchanged worried glances, their expressions a reflection of the mounting danger. This unexpected turn of events caught them off guard, leaving their sacred city vulnerable and their people in grave peril.

They certainly did not expect humans to move this fast and this decisively. It hasn't even been long since they established their foothold in Paradiso yet they're already launching a fierce attack on their capital city.

Just how daring could Humanity get?

Council Member Aries, her voice filled with urgency, rose from her seat. "Gather our forces immediately! We cannot afford to lose our capital city. Every available celestial warrior must be dispatched to defend our home and protect our people."

Council Member Orion, his brows furrowed in concern, added, "Inform our armies across Paradiso to redirect their efforts and reinforce the capital. We must mobilize swiftly and push back the human invaders."

Council Member Seraphina, her eyes filled with determination, stepped forward. "This attack may have taken us by surprise, but we are the celestial race, blessed by the divine power of our god. We shall rally our forces, defend our capital with unwavering resolve, and show these humans the strength of our celestial might."

Council Member Lysander, his voice steady, issued a command. "Send word to the citizens, assuring them that we are coming to their aid. Let them know that we shall not forsake them in their time of need. The Celestial Council stands united in protecting our beloved capital."

With a sense of urgency and renewed determination, the Celestial Council sprang into action. Orders were issued, messengers dispatched, and preparations made to counter the human assault on their capital city. The council members knew that this battle would be pivotal, and the fate of their realm hung in the balance.

As the grand doors of the chamber closed behind them, the council members left with a resolute determination to defend their capital city and their people. They would marshal their forces, rally their celestial warriors, and face the human invaders head-on. In this critical moment, their commitment to their celestial race and their divine purpose burned brighter than ever.

Little did they know that this sudden attack would test not only their strength and resolve but also their faith in the absent Celestial God. Their belief in his guidance would be put to the ultimate test as they fought to repel the human onslaught and protect the heart of their celestial civilization.

The once majestic capital city of the Celestials now lay in ruins, its towering spires reduced to rubble. The streets that once teemed with celestial life were now filled with smoke and chaos. Celestial warriors clashed fiercely against the relentless human onslaught, their powers colliding in a dazzling display of light and energy.

Amidst the chaos, a lone figure emerged from the shadows. It was none other than Alice, the Sword Empress, leading the charge with unwavering determination. Her blade danced with deadly precision, slicing through the enemy ranks. But just as victory seemed within their grasp, a deafening explosion rocked the city, shattering the remaining defenses.

The scene faded to black, leaving the fate of the Celestial capital city hanging in the balance. The outcome of this pivotal battle would determine the course of the war and the destiny of the Celestial race.
