After talking things through with Ludeus, he told me that he would arrive in two days because they had to clean up some things and store their troops safely before arriving at the elf capital.After finding the superior gravity tower in the upper city, I only sat there on the highest floor, meditating amongst the highest gravity the tower could produce.My body needed some highly dangerous environment to quicken the adaptation period, so I could grow stronger once again. I have burned through quite a lot of the energy I absorbed from Sahrona when I fought the five elite bodyguards, but I still had some left in my body, and the gravity helped me absorb it very very slowly.The moment my body adapted slightly, some of that energy would seep into that point and strengthen it for a very minuscule amount.Time slowly passed and those two days went by, and before I knew it, I woke up to Ludeus's face appearing in front of mine.He was a little bit too close for comfort, and the body he was

After Ludeus killed the 20 elves and made them his subordinates, we left the underground mining area and started to wander through the base middle city. I would occasionally use my new third eye to get used to it and improve my resistance to the slight side effects. I wasn't sure why we were wandering under Ludeus's invisibility veil, but soon enough I got my answer: "Minato, it's time for us to leave, appoint someone from the blood elf tribe as the leader of this place, we have to talk with the others from the north continent about the invasion, and I would like for you to be by my side during the meeting." I didn't have any attachments to this place, so I met up with Sikaw and the elders before telling them the truth, and introducing them to Ludeus. At first, they didn't believe it, but Ludeus could be quite persuasive, and his strength was so far above Sahrona's that even if they didn't want to be subsidiary subordinates to him, they couldn't refuse. After that, I appointed Sik

I started by attacking with a feint and appearing in front of the wraith afterward, but my hands went directly through him!Shuria shook his head as he looked at me and pointed two fingers at me. I could feel three daggers being impaled in my chest as I coughed out nothing. Since we were in my mental place, there was no blood to be coughed here, but I felt that the surroundings started to shake after I had taken those spectral daggers to the chest.Which meant that my mental palace would break down if my apparition here was damaged too much, I wasn't sure if the wraith would be free if that happened, but I didn't want to find out.I concentrated on my energy and sent it to my soul as I charged an elemental ball that I threw at Shuria, only for him to snort as he taunted:"Elemental energy against an elf? Your technique lacks any finesse, it's so basic that even a 5-year-old elf would be able to do better!"He deflected the energy ball, but what he didn't expect was for a bunch of dark

I nodded at Ludeus's question and said:"I have complete control over the wraith now, I have gained all of his techniques, and I'm ready to go, shall we?"Ludeus immediately created a cloud beneath our feet as we soared up through the trees in the swamp before making our way toward the Duramato continent border.The speed we used was as quick as the one that took us to the swamp, and it didn't take us more than three hours to arrive at the border.Nothing was separating the human continent from the orc's continent, mostly because the orcs never showed signs of invasion, and secondly, the humans thought that even if the orcs invaded, they didn't need to separate the continents with any defensive wall that would take tons of resources because they thought that the orcs wouldn't be strong enough to get past the defensive region which we passed the way to here.It was pretty dumb, but humans were very lax these days, the Churches warred amongst themselves, so they didn't have time to thin

The Snake Hunter's tribe was just in front of me. They had a giant wall made of dark stone that protected their city from the attacks of beasts, and there was also the addition of quite a lot of guards that were standing around the entrances to the city to ward off any scattered desert monstrosities that haven't been picked up by the archers which I could see were surveying the lands from the towers made above the walls.The orcs were dumb, but that didn't mean they didn't have the potential to learn, and it was obvious here that whoever created this city could be considered to be a genius among the orcs.He would be a great addition to my army here on the Duramato continent.The orcs that I subjugated aren't smart, and they would be only good to follow orders, but having more than one man that can give the orders would make the potential of my army even higher. I needed generals, not grunts.But for that to happen, I needed to infiltrate this fortress made of dark stone first.I coul
