Chapter 81, Episode 81
Meanwhile, in the Eastern World, Laxcarseel, Pandorami, Jeannette, and Lilura welcomed their Lord back with open arms
[Leo smiled warmly as he greeted his subordinates]
Laxcarseel: Welcome back, my Lord.
[Laxcarseel said, bowing slightly]
[Leo nodded, his eyes scanning the group]
Leo: Thanks, guys. I'm glad to be back.
[Pandorami's eyes landed on Issac, who was standing behind Leo]
Pandorami: My Lord, and who is this guy behind you?
[she asked curiously]
[Leo gestured to Issac]
Leo: Oh, this is Issac, Issac Hector. My...rival, or best friend, depending on how you look at it.
[Issac frowned, his eyes narrowing slightly]
Leo: Really, that's how you introduce me? You make me sound like a mere acquaintance.
[Leo chuckled]
Leo: Do you want to introduce yourself then? Since you've had such mighty wins?
[Issac's frown deepened]
Issac: What did you say, little twig?
[he shot back, his voice laced with amusement]
[Leo grinned, firing back]
Leo: Little twig!
[The two of them began to banter back and forth, their words laced with friendly jabs]
[Lilura interrupted, her voice calm and authoritative]
Lilura: Calm down, guys. We have a very important mission to discuss.
[Leo's expression turned serious, and he nodded]
Leo: You're right. Let's get down to business.
[The group headed to the meeting room, where Leo took his seat on his throne]
[His subordinates sat beside him, with Issac taking a seat as well]
[As the meeting began, Leo asked]
Leo: So, what's the important mission?
[Laxcarseel responded, his voice serious]
Laxcarseel: My Lord, there's a village near the Duran Nation. It's an unknown village, and most people don't know it exists.
[Leo's eyes narrowed]
Leo: So, what's the major issue with that territory?
[Pandorami replied, her voice filled with concern]
Pandorami: The goblin tribes often raid their village and poison them. But the chief of the goblin invasion is very powerful.
[Issac raised an eyebrow]
Issac: Sounds like their problem, not ours.
[Jeannette's eyes flashed with anger]
Jeannette: How dare you!
[she exclaimed]
[Issac shrugged]
Issac: Relax, our odds aren't even balanced. If we head to that village, we'll be outmaneuvered.
[Laxcarseel smirked]
Laxcarseel: I wouldn't be surprised if they kill you, such a weakling.
[Issac's eyes sparkled with amusement]
Issac: Are you trying to mock me?
[Leo intervened, his voice calm]
Leo: Calm down, Issac. We might have to go there and check things out.
[Lilura spoke up, her voice soft]
Lilura: Is it okay if we go with you, my Lord?
[Leo thought for a moment before responding]
Leo: Hmm...not for now. I want all four of you to head to the Abyss Sea World to manipulate the Pillar Kings.
[The four subordinates nodded, agreeing to head to the Abyss Sea World for the investigation]
[As they prepared to depart, Leo turned to Issac]
Leo: Let's head to the unknown village near the Duran Nation, We'll talk to the chief and see what's going on.
[Issac nodded, and the two of them set off towards the village]
[As they arrived, they were greeted by the chief, a wise-looking man with a kind face]
[The village was bustling with activity, with beautiful women and children playing in the streets. Men were working in the fields, tending to their crops]
[The chief welcomed Leo and Issac warmly, inviting them to sit with him and discuss the situation with the goblin tribes]
[Leo and Issac listened intently, their faces serious as they considered the chief's words]
Leo: We'll do our best to help you, But first, we need to understand the situation better. Can you tell us more about the goblin chief and his powers?
[Leo promised]
[The chief nodded, launching into a detailed explanation of the goblin chief's abilities and the village's situation]
[As they talked, Leo and Issac listened carefully, their minds racing with strategies and plans]
[The chief smiled warmly as he finished explaining the situation to Leo and Issac]
Chief: Well, it's quite contiguous, because the goblins are insanely guarded by experienced goblins.
[Issac raised an eyebrow]
Issac: Oh, interesting.
[The chief nodded]
Chief: But for now, stay as much as you like, until I tell you to head to the goblin tribe.
[Leo nodded, his eyes scanning the village]
Leo: Oh, okay.
[The chief stood up, gesturing for Leo and Issac to follow him]
Chief: Let me show you around. You two will be staying here. If you need anything, just let me know.
[As the chief left, Leo turned to Issac and whispered]
Leo: Don't you think the villagers are staring at us too much?
[Issac shrugged, his expression nonchalant]
Issac: Hmph, I don't really pay attention to that. Our job is to focus on the mission.
[Leo frowned, his brow furrowed]
Leo: You make it seem like you're the main character.
[Issac smirked]
Issac: Ya, ya, whatever. I'm tired. I'll rest for a while.
[Leo nodded, deciding to explore the village on his own. As he walked around, he noticed that the men in the village seemed to be glaring at him]
[One of the men, Ruio, approached him]
Ruio: Who is this anonymous?
[he growled]
[Leo forced a smile]
Leo: Hello, I'm Leo. I came here to rescue your village.
[Ruio's expression turned angry]
Ruio: I don't care. Don't you dare do anything stupid.
[Martha, a beautiful woman with long hair, intervened]
Martha: That's enough, Ruio. Leave him alone.
[Ruio's face twisted in anger]
Ruio: And what if I didn't?
[The attention drew a crowd, and the villagers began to gather around]
[Martha stood her ground, her voice calm and authoritative]
Martha: He's just here to save us. Threatening him is no use.
[Ruio snorted and left, followed by the other villagers. Martha turned to Leo and smiled]
Martha: Hey!
[Leo smiled back]
Leo: Hey!
[Martha explained]
Martha: In this village, if you're new here, they wouldn't treat you nicely.
[Leo's curiosity was piqued]
Leo: Is there a reason?
[Martha nodded]
Martha: That's because we have trust issues among us. People here are wary of outsiders.
[Leo nodded understandingly]
Leo: Oh, I see.
[Martha's smile grew wider]
Martha: Don't worry, you can trust me. My name is Martha, I'm 22 years old, and I live by myself.
[Leo's eyes lit up]
Leo: Hi Martha, my name is Leo, I'm 21. Guess you're older than me.
[Martha laughed, her cheeks flushing]
Martha: Haha, that's nice. Come with me to my room.
[As Martha took Leo to her room, he couldn't help but notice the decorations and the sweet scent in the air]
[Martha blushed slightly as she offered him some Ramen to eat]
Leo: Thanks!
[As Leo ate the Ramen, Martha stared at him with a big blush on her face. Leo's mouth was filled with food, and a drop of water fell from his cheek as he swallowed]
[Leo asked, his mouth still full]
Leo: Is something wrong?
[Martha quickly composed herself]
Martha: Umm, no.
[Leo then asked her]
Leo: Hey Martha, it seems everyone in this village is in couples and has children. Do you have one?
[Martha's blush deepened]
Martha: Hey, watch your tone. I'm 22, how am I supposed to have babies?
[Leo smiled]
Leo: I'm just saying. Relax.
[Martha explained]
Martha: Well, I don't have one because no one's liked me, I guess.
[Leo's smile softened]
Leo: I'm sure someone in this world would like you for who you are.
[Martha's face lit up with relief]
Martha: Okay.
[Just as they were about to continue their conversation, the bell rang, signaling that it was time for everyone to get out of their rooms]
[Martha instantly warned Leo to go back to his room and wake up his comrade]
Leo: Okay, I'll go
[Leo said, nodding]
[Leo reached his room and woke his comrade up]
Leo: Hey Issac, wake up!
[Issac groggily opened his eyes]
Issac: Something wrong?
[Leo whispered]
Leo: Nah, but it seems all the villagers are outside. We have to go too.
[As Leo and Issac joined the villagers outside, they noticed that everyone was gathered in a large open area]
[The chief stood at the center, his eyes scanning the crowd]
Leo: What's going on?
[Leo asked Martha, who was standing beside him]
[Martha whispered]
Martha: I think it's some kind of emergency meeting. The chief will announce what's happening.
[The chief cleared his throat, his voice booming across the crowd]
Chief: Everyone, gather 'round. We have a serious situation on our hands. The goblin
[The scene shifted to the Abyss Sea World]
[As the subordinates arrived at the Abyss Sea World, they couldn't help but notice the lively atmosphere]
[Laxcarseel commented]
Laxcarseel: It seems like a lively place to live in.
[Lilura nodded in agreement]
Lilura: Somewhat...I guess.
[Pandorami's eyes widened as she took in the sights and smells of the world]
Pandorami: There's a lot of food in here...
[Laxcarseel brought the conversation back to focus]
Laxcarseel: Let's get back to focus. We need to figure out how to manipulate the Pillar Kings.
[Jeannette's brow furrowed as she thought about the challenge ahead]
Jeannette: Alright, so how would we manage to manipulate all eight Pillar Kings? And they are extremely wise and good at detecting.
[Lilura nodded in agreement]
Lilura: She's right. In my experience, the Pillar Kings are good at detecting and aren't easy to fool. I'm certain we won't be able to get past their chamber as it stands right now.
[Just as the subordinates were discussing their plan, a woman approached them]
Antoinette: Excuse me? Who are you people?
[she asked]
[The subordinates turned around to see who it was, and Jeannette questioned]
Jeannette: And who are you?
[The woman replied]
Antoinette: My name is Antoinette Itzina. I'm an elf. Who might you be? It seems you're new to this world.
[Laxcarseel greeted her politely]
Laxcarseel: Greetings, lady. And yes, we are new here.
[Antoinette's eyes sparkled with curiosity]
Antoinette: Figured...our world doesn't like strangers. What brings you here?
[Laxcarseel's expression turned cold]
Laxcarseel: That's none of your business, I must say
[Antoinette was surprised by his rudeness, but she smiled and said]
Antoinette: Oh, come on. Don't be silly. Alright, follow me. I'll take you to my place.
[The elf led the subordinates to her home, where they sat down to discuss their plan. Jeannette asked]
Jeannette: So, why did you bring us here?
[Antoinette leaned forward, her eyes locked on theirs]
Antoinette: To have a discussion about why you're here. Because the Pillar Kings can see everything in the multiverse.
[The subordinates were surprised by this revelation]
[Jeannette's eyes widened]
Jeannette: What...
[Laxcarseel's expression turned thoughtful]
Laxcarseel So, you're saying we have less disadvantage due to their awareness in this world...
[Antoinette nodded]
Antoinette: Yes. And you still haven't told me why you're here.
[Laxcarseel's eyes narrowed]
Laxcarseel: How are we sure you won't tell anybody the reason why we're here?
[Antoinette smiled]
Antoinette: Do you have any option other than telling me? If you need help succeeding in your plan...
[Laxcarseel's expression turned calculating]
Laxcarseel: I see how intelligent you really are. But we have no other option...We're sent by our lord to manipulate the Pillar Kings for their wrongful doing.
[Antoinette's eyes lit up with interest]
Antoinette: Your lord? Who is your lord?
[Jeannette replied]
Jeannette: Lord Leo...
[Antoinette's face lit up with recognition]
Antoinette: I have heard of that name before. He came to this world in disguise. I saw his face in the disguise because I can see through disguises very easily.
[Lilura's eyes widened in surprise]
Lilura: You really know something!
[Antoinette smiled]
Antoinette: Well, I'm an elf. Also, trying to manipulate the Pillar Kings won't be easy. They are extremely intelligent and mostly rely on their energy power to channel their body to see everything.
[Laxcarseel's expression turned skeptical]
Laxcarseel: So, you're saying they use their energy power to manipulate...that's weird.
[Antoinette nodded]
Antoinette: They are insanely strong. The only people who can match them are the Legendary Justice. They are the creators and one of the strongest in the multiverse.
[Jeannette's expression turned serious]
Jeannette: I actually know them. Because they partially annihilate everyone who dares defy their orders...
[Pandorami asked]
Pandorami: So, how do we get this done if they are not easy to be manipulated?
[Antoinette smiled]
Antoinette: Well, I have a very strategic plan to manipulate them, not outmaneuver them...which isn't easy.
[Antoinette leaned forward, her eyes locked on the subordinates]
Antoinette: I'll need to know more about your Lord's plan and what you hope to achieve by manipulating the Pillar Kings.
[Laxcarseel hesitated for a moment before nodding]
Laxcarseel: Alright, we'll tell you everything we know. But you have to promise to help us.
[Antoinette nodded, a determined look on her face]
Antoinette: I promise. I'll do everything I can to help you succeed.
[As Antoinette listened intently, the subordinates explained their lord's plan and the reasons behind manipulating the Pillar Kings]
[Antoinette's expression grew more serious with each passing moment, her eyes narrowing as she processed the information]
Antoinette: I see, This is a complex situation. But I believe I can help you. My plan involves using the Pillar Kings' own energy against them
[Antoinette said, nodding thoughtfully]
[Lilura's eyes lit up with interest]
Lilura: How do you plan to do that?
[Antoinette smiled, a hint of mischief in her voice]
Antoinette: I'll need to use my knowledge of the Pillar Kings' energy patterns to create a resonance frequency that will disrupt their ability to see everything. Once they're vulnerable, we can manipulate them.
[Jeannette's expression turned skeptical]
Jeannette: That sounds like a long shot. What if it doesn't work?
[Antoinette's smile grew wider]
Antoinette: Then we'll have to improvise. But I'm confident in my plan. I've studied the Pillar Kings for a long time, and I know their weaknesses.
[Laxcarseel nodded, a look of determination on his face]
Laxcarseel: Alright, let's do it. We'll follow your plan and see it through.
[The subordinates nodded in agreement, their faces set with resolve]
[With Antoinette's guidance, they began to formulate a plan to manipulate the Pillar Kings and achieve their goal]
[As they discussed the details, Pandorami spoke up, her voice filled with curiosity]
Pandorami: Antoinette, can you tell us more about the Legendary Justice? You mentioned they're the creators and one of the strongest in the multiverse.
[Antoinette's expression turned serious, her eyes clouding over]
Antoinette: The Legendary Justice are a mysterious group. They're said to have created the multiverse and govern its laws. They're incredibly powerful, and their wrath is not to be trifled with.
[The subordinates listened intently, their faces filled with a mix of awe and trepidation]
[They knew that they were taking a risk by manipulating the Pillar Kings, but with Antoinette's help, they might just have a chance to succeed]
[As they continued to discuss their plan, the room grew quiet, the only sound the soft hum of the Abyss Sea World's energy]
[The subordinates were focused, their minds working together to achieve their goal. They knew that the road ahead would be difficult, but they were determined to see it through]
[With a final nod, the subordinates stood up, ready to put their plan into action]
Laxcarseel: Let's do this...
[Laxcarseel said, his voice filled with determination)
[The others nodded, their faces set with resolve]
[Together, they would manipulate the Pillar Kings and achieve their goal, no matter the cost]
[Antoinette leaned forward, her eyes gleaming with excitement]
Antoinette: The Legendary Justice are a group of incredibly powerful beings who govern the laws of the multiverse. They're led by the enigmatic leader, Zenith, and consist of 12 members, each with their own unique abilities and magic.
[The subordinates leaned in, their faces filled with anticipation]
Jeannette: Who are the members?
[Jeannette asked, her voice barely above a whisper]
[Antoinette smiled, a hint of mischief in her voice]
Antoinette: Let's see...there's Zenith, the leader, and then there's Axel, the wild card; Morpheus, the strategist; Jax, the rebel; Endless , the enforcer; Nova, the innovator; Thane, the guardian; Morningstar, the dreamweaver; Thanos, the shadow; Kaida, the trickster; Raven, the disruptor; and lastly, there's Vex, the provocateur.
[The subordinates listened intently, their faces filled with a mix of awe and curiosity]
Pandorami: What kind of magic do they possess?
[Pandorami asked, her voice filled with wonder]
[Antoinette's smile grew wider]
Antoinette: Axel has the magic of chaos manipulation, Morpheus has the magic of probability manipulation, Jax has the magic of reality bending, Endless has the magic of law enforcement, Nova has the magic of technological manipulation, Thane has the magic of protection, Morningstar the magic of dream, Thanos has the magic of shadow manipulation, Kaida has the magic of illusion creation, Raven has the magic of reality tearing, and Vex has the magic of psychological manipulation. And as for Zenith, their magic is unknown, even to me.
[Just as the subordinates were about to ask more questions]
[The scene shifted to the unknown village, where Leo and Issac were standing in front of the chief's hut]
[The chief emerged from the hut, a look of concern on his face]
Chief: Ah, Leo, Issac. I have some updates on the goblin situation. Our scouts have reported that the goblin tribe is preparing for a large-scale attack on our village.
[Leo's expression turned serious, his eyes narrowing]
Leo: When is the attack planned for?
[The chief's face was grim]
Chief: Our scouts estimate that the attack will happen within the next few days. We need to prepare our defenses and come up with a plan to counter the goblin threat.
[Issac nodded, his eyes gleaming with interest]
Issac: I'll take care of the goblins. You focus on preparing the village's defenses.
[The chief nodded, a look of gratitude on his face]
Chief: Thank you, Issac. We'll do our best to prepare for the attack.
[As the chief began to explain the village's defense strategy, Leo's mind wandered to the goblin tribe and their leader]
[He knew that they would have to be careful if they were going to succeed in their mission]
[The goblins were known to be ruthless and cunning, and they would stop at nothing to achieve their goals]
[The scene was set for a fierce battle, and Leo and Issac were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead]
[Martha led Leo and Issac to a small hut on the outskirts of the village, where she had prepared a special treat for them]
[The aroma of freshly cooked food wafted through the air, making their stomachs growl with anticipation]
Martha: Welcome to my humble abode, I've prepared a traditional dish from our village, made with the finest ingredients and cooked to perfection.
[Martha said, gesturing for them to sit down]
[Leo and Issac sat down, their eyes scanning the spread before them]
[Martha had prepared a variety of dishes, each one looking more delicious than the last]
Leo: Wow, this looks amazing..
[Leo said, his stomach growling with hunger]
[Issac nodded in agreement]
Issac: Yeah, let's dig in.
[As they ate, Martha watched them with a smile, happy to see them enjoying her cooking]
[The silence was broken only by the sound of utensils clinking against plates and the occasional satisfied sigh]
[After they finished eating, Martha leaned forward, her expression serious]
Martha: So, you two are planning to take on the goblin tribe tomorrow?
[Leo nodded, his eyes locked on hers]
Leo: Yes, we're going to take care of them.
[Martha's expression turned concerned]
Martha: Just be careful, okay? The goblins aren't easy to deal with. They're vicious and unpredictable.
[Issac smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement]
Issac: Don't worry, we've dealt with worse than goblins before.
[Martha's expression didn't change, but her voice took on a slightly worried tone]
Martha: I hope so. I don't want anything to happen to you two.
[Leo reached out and patted Martha's hand, his touch warm and reassuring]
Leo: Don't worry, we'll be fine. We've got this under control.
[Martha nodded, a small smile and a blush on her face]
Martha: Okay, I trust you two.
[As they finished their meal and prepared for the next day's battle, Leo and Issac couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation]
[They knew that taking on the goblin tribe wouldn't be easy, but they were confident in their abilities and each other's strengths]
[The night was quiet, the only sound the distant howling of wolves and the occasional hooting of owls. Leo and Issac slept soundly, their minds focused on the battle ahead]
[Tomorrow would be a day of reckoning, and they were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead]
