Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

The dreadful Realm Dreadnaught streaked across space as the void itself trembled, the movement of so many vessels causing a shift in the surroundings.

Commander Athena stood at the forefront while being surrounded by two Star Forgers who had achieved more than 50% comprehension in Universal Laws, another 6 Star Forgers spread out across their own vessels.

The presence of Crixus and Vredral were the most prominent ones around her, Athena actually finding herself growing calmer as the time that she thought would be her death neared.

After all, how could she escape the grasps of 8 Star Forgers after she betrayed them? How could she escape the hands of the being that had fooled every single Celestial and had already bound her by blood?

The only ending she saw for herself was death, and this thought actually made her return to her calm and valiant mental state!

If she was to die, she would at least look upon the face of Vredral and see his expression as everything crumbled around him. She would at least look upon Crixus with confidence as she atoned for all that she did.

At the end of it all, she wanted to know...who was he, really?

The thoughts swimming around her mind were many as she prepared to not be hypocritical and actually point her sword to those causing chaos, her mind looking at the advancement of Celestials into the Dark Expanse differently as she questioned the meaning of everything they did.

Regardless of the circ.u.mstances, she was a being with the goal of bringing order and balance, and she would destroy any of those causing chaos! With this thought, her eyes shone with l.u.s.ter as she recorded the valiant light that had been pushed down, her body beginning to emanate a unique aura in the command room of the Realm Dreadnaught as her eyes glanced towards their goal!

RUMBLE!

They broke through layers of space as their eyes honed in on a particularly fortified stronghold far in the distance, the numerous vessels of the huge Legion making their grand appearance as they came to a halt while nearing the Verittas Fortress.

Numerous communications began to be sent through as the two sides looked towards each other, Athena's gaze glancing towards the forces of the Verittas Fortress as she tried to see exactly what plan Crixus had.

To be so confident as to place someone like her under his command while moving with the force of Celestials he stood against, what trick did he have up his sleeve?

Her eyes scanned the forces at the Verittas Fortress as she found nothing unique, counting the auras of only four Star Forging Realm experts with the collection of hundreds of thousands of Vampyres, Mages, Wizards, and Infernals.

She looked towards the forces of Vampyres as this was where she expected Crixus's allies to be, recalling how he had displayed glistening fangs when binding her by blood. Even though the force of Vampyres looked fearsome, she still did not see something that would be able to withstand a force of 8 Star Forgers!

Her discerning gaze then landed on the body of the being at the forefront of the defense at the Verittas Fortress. He had a shimmering red crown coming from his head that signified his title as an Infernal Lord, a regal battle robe wrapping around him as hundreds of thousands of Infernals stood behind.

The reinforcements of the 6th Infernal Lord were present as the numbers of defending Infernals exploded, their force at the very forefront as the 9th Infernal Lord was leading one side, and the 6th Infernal Lord was leading the other!

Athena's eyes scanned all of this as she still believed the side of the Verittas Fortress was outgunned and outmanned, wondering exactly where Crixus's plan lied.

Her eyes focused on the being floating calmly at the very forefront as she wondered- were all the hopes of this battle being placed on this powerful and mysterious 9th Infernal Lord?

"The one we have to be wary of the most is that arrogant-looking creature at the very forefront."

The voice of Commander Verdant rang out in the Command Room as his body already shone with the l.u.s.ter of stars.

"The enemy has access to two Authorities, so I will head out first and deploy my Authority, with Commander Lylle coming after and deploying his Authority."

His voice was filled with confidence as he said this, because he knew his enemy had the Authorities of two normal Universal Laws, while the two of them had the Authority of a Fate Lord!

"As we pin him and his two Authorities down, three other Star Forging Commanders will enter the domains of the Authorities as we besiege this 9th Infernal Lord until his death. The remaining Star Forging Commanders will match the 6th Infernal Lord and other commanders of the Verittas Fortress."

A clear plan was relayed in the minds of Athena and the 7 Star Forging Realm Celestial experts from Commander Verdant, and it was a plan to overwhelm the 9th Infernal Lord with 5 beings at the same level as him!

"We will depend on you {Precognition} ability to evade any unexpected moves from this creature, as we hope to not have even a single one of our brothers fall in this battle."

Commander Verdant's eyes bore into Athena as he said, the War Princess nodding as the forces of their enormous Legion came face to face with the defenders of the Verittas Fortress!

Athena's eyes shone with a melancholic light as she sent a telepathic message to Crixus.

"What commands do you have for me?"

As the battle was about to begin, the commander of the enemy forces sought another being's command as a battle of immense proportion was about to begin.

Athena could feel the calm smile on Crixus without even turning around, the telepathic reply of this being ringing out thereafter.

"Continue with the flow that Commander Verdant mentioned for now. I'll let you know when the time comes for you to move."

The words in her mind reeked of such confidence that the War Princess wondered exactly what plan was afoot in the mind of this mysterious being!

OOOOH!

The horns of War were blown as the tensions between the two sides reached the peak!
