The army approaches Twenny and surrounds her as they have bright smiles on their faces, Aku jumps on Twenny with a hug attack as they both fall down. Twenny’s thoughts, “Well it’d be strange if I carried her.”

Aku lifts Twenny up into a hug as tears stream down her face, “I’m so glad you’re okay.” She tightens the hug, a normal person would suffer but Twenny doesn’t. So, she taps Aku and gasps for air, “Aku can’t breathe.”

Aku drops Twenny, “Oh, sorry.” Flint gives Twenny a hug surprising her. Twenny notices Flint’s heartbeat as her thoughts. “Aww, Farm boy was worried about me.” She hugs him back.

Flint lets go then Chuck bows his head towards Twenny with a smile on his face and gives a thumbs up to Flint? Flint is confused why he is getting a thumbs up. Aand Aku smacks Chuck on the head. *BANG* Chuck holds his head as if he’s been wronged.

The Valkyrie is in light armor with a short sword on her waist in light or leather armor as she flaps her wings in the sky.The Valkyrie’s gaze goes over the entire city observing everything. “Looks like the city wasn’t destroyed.” She stretches her hands before her as the same 7th tier runic circles start to appear before her.Twenny jumps out the window, “A Valkyrie in a place like this, very suspicious.” She lands on the ground and taps her feet on the ground as she shoots to the Valkyrie. “DIMENSION MOVEMENT > MASS DIMENSION.” Twenny reaches the Valkyrie as the Valkyrie is now the size of a continent.

    “I accept.” The Valkyrie says as she steels her resolve, her thoughts. “I’ve been beaten by the gods ever since became a Valkyrie. At least the number of abusers will reduce.” She bows on one knee, this makes a really dramatic scene of a knight swearing loyalty to his lord. In this case a Valkyrie to a little girl.Twenny waves it off, “Enough with those stuffy formalities.” The Valkyrie makes a dumb face, “My oath is tossed away so easily!” Twenny looks around the Divine realm, “I want you to convince the armies of these gods to serve me, I don’t need all of them but just enough for show.” Twenny looks at the Valkyrie bowing below her as she fidgets, Twenny sighs. “If you’ve got something to say then say it.”The Valkyrie is surprised as her thoughts, “She’s allowing me to share my thoughts?” She looks down as she speaks, “M…May I know why you need the armies? With your strength you don’t need anyone.”Twenny nods, “Stand.” The Valkyrie stands as she continues, “Indeed I don’t need a

Despite being a small kingdom, it is walled with farms outside the walls. There’s an aqueduct carrying water across the city as outlets are made into wells. The houses are arranged in a confusing way so you’d have to make many turns before reaching the castle at the center. Before the city is another group of people including soldiers returning from the monster tide and travelers. The people are arranged into 2 long lines, one for travelers and the other for soldiers. The soldiers confirm their identities and enter without paying anything so that line is faster.

    “There’s one more thing.” The goddess speaks. Thorn looks at her clearly interested. The goddess continues. “If we unite our powers, we can win. Though you’re powerful, our attacks clearly had some effect on you.”“But how?” the shadow god speaks, “Even with our combined attacks the result is the same…..unless….we fuse our powers.” The gods are even shocked by his statement but it is their only option.The fire god speaks, “Then I will receive our powers and defeat this fiend.” The gods agree, Thorn finds this interesting so he’s watching eating a fruit.The gods channel all their power into the god of fire, his level remains the same but his stats clearly rise above that of a primordial god trespassing into the territory or Rulers. The fire god is enshrouded by energy releasing wave after wave of heat and energy.Thorn looks at this with interest in thought, “I’ll have to record this and send it to Master or her kin later.” He opens his hand and an obsidian in the form of a sphere dr

The gods are making an announcement to their army on the start of a new war.Far away from this place, on a small floating island covered by clouds. Anna is watching, she’s spying on this pantheon hoping to gain information on the war. The Chief god of the pantheon steps up, “The Demon realm has declared war on us.” He said, “And so we will respond in kind.”Anna watches from afar, “So, war is upon us.

The figure is human but has parts of its flesh missing as gold flames comes from the missing parts. This figure is Sers’ true form.Sers lands behind Thorn, “Why did you reveal so much to him?”Thorn glances behind him, “Was it wrong to do so? The kid has to know why he got your attention.”Sers sighs, “It’s not wrong, we just didn’t know how to reveal it to him. As for why he got our attention….Hmmm, think Twenny should tell him.” Sers moves towards a refrigerator in the corner.Thorn shrugs, “Pushing responsibility around, so Xeno like.” He notices Sers reaching for a beer, a chill goes down his spine and he snatches the beer from Sers.Sers is taken aback, “Hey, What’s the big idea?”Thorn puts the beer back in the fridge and gives him juice, “No alcohol for you unless your siblings are here to restrain you.” Sers feels hurt and Thorn continues, “The last time Master got dru

    Flint hovers above the ground as he glares at Thorn, Thorn grins and gives him the ‘come on’ wave. Flint taps his feet off the ground vanishing from sight like a blur, Thorn raises his hand up. *CLANG* Flint swung his sword down and Thorn blocked it, Thorn twists and kicks Flint’s stomach. *CRACK* Flint is blown away. Thorn’s eyes open wide as his thoughts, “I didn’t kill him, right? I held back a lot.” Flint smashes into a tree, he slowly gets up as his HP recovers. Thorn grins, “The Master really made a splendid bloodline, sadly it can’t be compared to hers.” Thorn makes a blood barrier as a beam of light hits it, “A fake bloodline is this powerful? No wonder Master could never beat the Messengers of Light.” The blood barrier turns light and disintegrates. Flint taps his feet on the ground and appears before Thorn, Thorn makes a sword and fights back. *CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG* Flint swings his sword right next to Thorn’s neck as he moves back a bit and dodges.

Flint swings his sword as space seems to bend with his sword.“297. 298. 299. 300.” He drops his sword and rests on the ground, “I didn’t think it’d be this tiring. Somehow this feels harder than Teacher’s training.” Flint raises his hand as a ball materializes in his hand. “Space ball.” He throws it at a tree. *PING* The tree is twisted inwards and outwards till it breaks *CRACK THUD*Flint is able to materialize space, move and control space with ease. Flint grins, “To think I can do this with just 5% Comprehension. I wonder what I’ll be able to do when I master it.

    Thorn sits on a chair and offers one to Flint, he forgot Licia is still there. “At some point during the Journey to grow stronger, levels become…..bullshit.” Flint is confused and Thorn continues, “You can have the highest level and skills but if you can’t make good use out of it then you’re weak. I’ve witness people fight with a huge level gap yet the lower levelled one won. Combat potential can’t be measure, it’s just your capability to face opponents.”Flint thinks about it, “So if my combat potential is high, I might be able to match up to her?”Thorn’s thoughts, “Sorry but no. Rank also has a say in it, Twenny is a Tittle Calamity, you’ll need more than combat potential to fight on equal footing with her.” Then he speaks, “Against others yes.”Flint feels relieved though he misunderstands, then a question pops into his mind. “Can…you tell me more about Teacher?”Thorn rubs his chin, “There’s not much to say, she’d mostly stay indoors with her sibling watching movies and eating sn

Flint walks out of his room going downstairs to the bathroom then stops, “That’s odd, I don’t sense Licia around.” Aku is in the kitchen cooking, “Licia went to Twenny’s old cave, she said she’s got a friend there.” Flint’s head pokes through the door, “Did she say what kind of friend?” Aku shakes her head, “Nope, I think it’s an imaginary one since Twenny is the only person to think of living there.” Flint raises a brow, “And monsters?” Aku shrugs, “We haven’t a monster in these parts since Twenny moved in. I’m certain she did something to keep the mo
