Family Is A Must

Once peace arrived to the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom again, the Kingdom felt what seemed to be something within their chest brewing. Something was coming, and their bodies were triggered by it. Whatever it was… whatever was coming. It created a silent expectation, one where anyone would end up looking up for more information on the Forbloffende Traes Sect's news, but nothing major has happened hundreds of years since then. The oldest civilian generations across the Kingdom were at ease and feeling peaceful.

In the 18,343rd year of the Change, and 17,780th year of the Sect, the Forbloffende Traes Sect had officially integrated themselves to the other 8 3* Regions in the core mainland. Unlike in the 3* Region they first expanded to, they didn’t further increase their territory via peaceful means. That didn’t mean they wouldn’t find ways to increase their favorability with their neighbors.

However, in the 3* Region north of the Mask-Mythos Region, most of its territory had fallen in the Forbloffende Traes Sect’s hands. Heian Ciemnosc, the Sect Master, had met with the beings for a quick meeting to decide the future of the 3* Region. In the end, Heian Ciemnosc convinced the beings to let him have the Region for himself. After all, his Sect’s rule wasn’t negative, and in these hundreds of years, the already bustling 3* Region… simply improved.

Of course, Heian Ciemnosc didn’t really need to convince them by a lot. Having the black monster as their Region’s big boss was something they couldn’t limit. They wished to see more, but they were patient. Besides, the notion they had felt in their chest and Soul changed, becoming sharper and thinner, nearly figuring out what it was.

Thus, as time passed, with Heian Ciemnosc having overall control over a 3* Region of a Divine Kingdom, the resources he gained from it, and the other territories in the other 3* Regions added up insanely boosted his Sect. However, even if all mainland Regions were under Heian Ciemnosc’s hands, it wouldn’t surpass what the Mask-Mythos Grand Star Region offers to the Forbloffende Traes Sect.

For starters, Heian Ciemnosc couldn’t wage any more wars in the 3* Region, but he could continue ‘convincing’ the others peacefully, without forcing a battle or face-off. Still, duels and so on were available. Thus, during these hundreds of years, the Forbloffende Traes Sect slowly brought the entire 3* Region under one sole organization, except from the Fifth and Sixth Step.

Meanwhile, the Sect made a name for itself. The disciples went out in small to large missions and even some tasks where the Region they worked saw their glory and particularities. Little by little, they truly became renown throughout the mainland. The Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom now had another reason to look towards the mainland.

Nevertheless, the Sect showed no sign of violence, but knowing Sect Master Darkness was the black monster, everyone was alert, even First Step organizations. The 3* Regions and the few 2* Regions constantly checked the Forbloffende Traes Sect’s vassal territory in the other 3* Regions, cautiously and preemptively.

Then, finally, one day, Sect Master Darkness spilled the dark beans. Without any surprise or wholeheartedly all-out advancement no one could envision, he simply declared war… to all Godhood Step organizations. As crazy as that sounded, the mainland witnessed what they didn’t know were… Mothership Fleets descending everywhere in the skies of the core mainland.

Not all Regions’ organizations in the mainland were declared war against, only those in the core mainland, where the largest mass of land surrounding the once small Vrida Region but was now smaller than the Mask-Mythos Region altogether.

However, the number of Fourth Step organizations in just these were at least in the hundreds, with a few dozen at the peak. Yet, when the other beings and fewer existences watched the skies, seeing more than a dozen Mothership Fleet descend to the Regions, they understood.

There were 2 types of Motherships the Shadows used. One was Purewarm, a Fortress-type Mothership. The other was Purepity, an Amphibious-type Mothership.

Purewarm’s shape was similar to a balloon, completely pure white, to the point where it seemed to make one believe they were the incarnation of the word ‘pure’. It is built with the purest ‘trues’ within it, of which the most specialized cultivators in nature worked, led by Hong Mei, Milyy, and Dinayid.

It has several limbs, some shapeless limbs, akin Heian Ciemnosc’s dark shapeless limbs, but pure white. These projected downwards in its universal focus, like tentacles. On the other hand, atop the balloon, it has a soft ‘armor’ covering the rest of its body where the tentacles didn’t hang with the same color and appearance as the rest of its structure.

Its diameter was 450 kilometers, but 261 kilometers long. It has… too many goddamn machine guns. In comparison to the Shadow Battleship, this one has about 100 of those per tentacle, let alone its main structure. It naturally has an equally insane amount of artillery guns, missiles, and rockets launchers, although not as many as machine guns, and so on. A heavenly fortress.

It also has one of the Forbloffende Traes Sect’s shields, a universal shield to protect it, making them untouchable for even an Expedition Fleet to directly destroy it if they wanted to in a couple of weeks. Its defense was Armament-resistant, making these Motherships Armament-class-like Motherships. They were definitely an achievement of utmost pride for those who helped create it and build it.

Purepity has the shape of a ‘H’, with an ‘incomplete’ pair of sticks at its upper section. It is decorated with the most beautiful, pure, almond black color along its arsenal, which surpasses even those from a Purewarm Mothership. Its design is elaborated so it looks like a beautiful gem encrusted by precious little crystal stones. This was the Purepity’s pride in beauty for both armor and arsenal.

Its main structure, the H’s stick in the middle, is 800 km long, while the 4 sticks protruding from it are 400 km long each, with the last 80 km of those 400 km arched upwards or downwards, depending on its universal focus. Like the Purewarm, it could be considered an Armament-class Mothership.

With the intricacies it is built with, of which Calisneia employed her existence’s, almost Lord-like, capabilities to help. It can cross through Spaces, an existence’s Dominion, to land or invade its aerial or space territory and anchor at any moment. Unlike the Purewarm Mothership, the Purepity can extend their defensive capabilities to nearby ally structures or people, protecting them from any bombardment or barrage of attacks.

They descended on the mainland Region from space, whereas the Crimson and Dynasty Godly Space Station had moved away from the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom. They didn’t expect Mothership Fleets to make their appearance before the 2 Godly Space Stations showed.

The enemy Godly organizations didn’t stand a chance. Staying within the Neutral Existences’s peacefulness, and planning to continue doing so for long, their armada had no such Fleets, so their space battling capabilities were below sufficient. As the wars started, the 3* Region the Forbloffende Traes Sect had begun its road to a higher stand had already majorly become the Sect’s territory, except for the being and the 2 existences with their respective organizations.

On the other hand, the Mask-Mythos Grand Star Region had already developed to its utmost. It now had 12 ports, with many space for Fleets there. The navy couldn’t have anything larger than a Fleet, as a Mothership was impossible, but their number had become exponentially humongous. Furthermore, the Purepity Motherships could carry these to other Regions to fully battle and defeat the enemy in every possible type of force they could offer.

The Vrida City’s inner territory, as the Forbloffende Traes Sect inner territory, became the most lavish settlement in the world, although it was unknown to any outsider. Any person who managed to achieve the recognition to obtain the [Chronicles of Life & Death] was brought here to officially be recognized by the Forbloffende Traes Sect’s capital.

As it increased, more conditions were set to receive the Sect’s blessing. However, the Sect also placed their foot on the other Regions, recruiting as many new Servants and vassal members as one might think when one becomes the most known organization in a Divine Kingdom.

If the Forbloffende Traes Sect hadn’t allowed for tens of thousands of vassal organizations to exist under them, even their Vrida City would’ve been filled up completely soon. There were a dozen Large Cities throughout the Grand Star Region, surrounded by dozens of Medium Cities and hundreds of Small Cities. This was how tremendous the Mask-Mythos Region was, insurmountable.

The core mainland suffered for a few years before the conflict was quickly resolved. The Forbloffende Traes Sect’s and its forces were, of course, victorious, albeit not smoothly. Even then, the exchange between losses and victory were breathtaking. The Sect was also decent, not letting the wars put their image, the civilians, or the Regions’ nature in danger.

As the Region wars ended, the remaining few were only like little flies trapped in a spider’s web. The 3* Region had a meeting with the other beings, and before long, Heian Ciemnosc became the solidified leader of the other Regions. Things ended peacefully, with no sudden revolts or complications. Heian Ciemnosc became the face the entire Kingdom now had in their minds. Especially the other ⅔ outside the core.

Nevertheless, the Regions became Shadowed, fully embracing what the Crimsonbreaking Faction and the Interchanging Dust Dynasty had, and yielded leadership to the Forbloffende Traes Sect. Peace returned, and this time, for a few thousand years.

… The Forbloffende Traes Sect didn’t hide or tried to mask their intentions before declaring war against several Godly organizations. Whatever lower Step organizations thought of them, it was dealt with peacefully over the coming years. One way or another, the entire 9 Regions became the Sect’s territory, with the Grand Region surrounding them all.

Ring portals were built en masse. Trade between all Regions and them with the Grand Star Region flourished like never before. Their maritime travels were exponentially enhanced by these, and considering the Grand Star Region’s land encompassing a good portion of the sea, they only needed 3 weeks to finish their tasks.

The Grand Star Region produced Shadow war instruments for its vassals, but it sold top-notch, universally known war instruments to other Regions far from the core and through the Universal Conveyance. Nevertheless, most of the Sect’s budget went to continue building the armada. Furthermore, Godly Space Stations were in order.

It was time for the Sect to have its Godly Space Stations, but there was something else. The ‘reveal’ of Grand Fleets, Small Expedition Fleets, Expedition Fleets, and Grand Expedition Fleets. The world would finally know the Forbloffende Traes Sect’s true goal. Its actual… objective, and how dementially expansive it was.

A Grand Fleet consists of a Flagship of 1 to 3 Motherships, surrounded by 12 Battleships and 6 Carriers. On the other hand, a Small Expedition Fleet consists of 2 Carriers with 3 Medium Flotillas in the center. 2 Large Flotillas and another 3 Medium Flotillas in the vanguard, and 4 Medium Flotillas at the rear. Any number of Motherships were to be distributed throughout the Small Expedition Flotilla, with a limit of less than 4.

An Expedition Fleet has 5 Carriers, 1 Battleship, and 9 Large Flotillas in the middle, with 13 Large Flotillas at its vanguard and rear. Its maximum number of Motherships rounds about 8.

On the other hand, a Grand Expedition Fleet consists of 4 Flagships, each having a Mothership, with 18 Carriers surrounding them, 22 Large Flotillas with 5 Battleships as the vanguard, and 28 Large Flotillas with 12 Battleships at the rear. Their maximum Mothership isn’t really set, as any needed to have at least more than 10 Motherships besides the Flagships. These were the monsters the Forbloffende Traes Sect wanted to show to the world when conquering the rest of the core. However…

That was only what the Forbloffende Traes Sect wanted to do. What they could actually do was different. For starters, a few hundred years before the Sect commenced moving their new Godly Space Stations, still far away from the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom, they moved.

However, this wasn’t a preemptive strike, or an offensive out of fear… The other Regions in the core, not just the mainland Regions, but the island Regions as well… Directly sent letters of surrendering to the Forbloffende Traes Sect. This was… unexpected, to say the least.

It was the first time Heian Ciemnosc beat his enemy to submission without having to truly act. After all, it wouldn’t be a problem for a war lasting at least 100 years to unfold with what he planned, especially if they went all-out to stop his forces. Nevertheless, he wasn’t even near the time to give the order, when the not-even-enemy surrendered.

Of course, this wasn’t a complete surrender. These Regions wouldn’t collectively give up against the Forbloffende Traes Sect territory and forces, even with their beings’ counseling. The peak Fourth Step organizations made the first move, sending delegations to show their surrendering. A few weeks later, they traveled to the Mask-Mythos Region, where their leading figures took their vows to the Sect Master and the Forbloffende Traes Sect before they finally became the Sect’s vassal organizations.

Then, a plethora of Third, Second, and First Step organizations followed suit from each Region. These were the majority of organizations in each Region, but still not everyone. However, it only took a bit over a thousand years for the core zone to become the Forbloffende Traes Sect. After all, when at least 70% of the territory became the Shadows’, it was only stupid to continue remaining adamant.

Besides, without the Sect acting, not even indirectly, their vassals could wage war against the remaining neutral parties and gobble up that territory instead. It wasn’t until only 90% of the territory was the Shadows’ that the remaining stubborn organizations finally conceded.

Without knowing this would happen, Heian Ciemnosc was left speechless when he saw the last few dozen organizations send their letters to his soldier units and kneeling before them. It was a slightly comical development.

Nevertheless, it was what happened. And as it happened, waking up in the arms of his family, well, his wives, Heian Ciemnosc also knew something more crucial. This will bring attention from the other ⅔ of the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom. Which, indeed, it did.

The Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom was like a religious holy land of cultivation. But it was always divided through time, ⅓ belonging to the core zone, where the now Mask-Mythos Grand Star Region stood at the center of it all, and ⅔ belonging to virtually no one. They were like a free land, except, it was the usual lifestyle of any other Kingdom. However, usually… there was a generational organization that brought the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom as one.

In this case, that was also what the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom was witnessing. To put a better perspective, any Third Step organization is always looking to build their armada to bring their troops elsewhere and form branch territories in other Kingdoms. On the other hand, Fourth Step organizations hope to conquer territory in even other Divine Kingdoms, just not this one.

The beings and fewer existences in the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom were contented with having their Fifth or Sixth Step organization-sized territories, not wanting to look for more. Occasionally, every few tens of thousands of years, if the situation arose sooner than most times, the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom would give rise to 2 forces.

One would rise from the core zone, while the other from the rest, that ⅔ of the Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom. Through the Change war, the Neutral Existences didn’t see such things happening, which would influence the other Existences around them, not just the one it originates from. The Authoritarian Summit Divine Kingdom was this important. But now, it remained dormant…until Heian Ciemnosc’s forces conquered the core zone.

It wasn’t difficult to see what could happen. Besides, how could Heian Ciemnosc not know the other ⅔ was recuperating from its previous disaster? It had been thousands of years since the ‘previous’ generational organizations ruling that ⅔ of the Kingdom started re-taking its lost territory and amassed resources. As for the reason, only their leading figure knew… and Heian Ciemnosc.

The Forbloffende Traes Sect’s territory increased to the entire core zone, ⅓ of the Kingdom, in the 20,490th year of the Change. From then on, he prepared to break into the Fifth Step, to become.

. . .

In the Sect’s 24,000th year, the Sect has been working their assess off until the entire territory had attained the peak. Most Third Step organizations were near their peak, which only needed them a few extra efforts to become Godly organizations.

The Forbloffende Traes Sect welcomed what Heian Ciemnosc believed to be the final time of peace before their forces fully spread out. After all, the number of inhabitants the Grand Region can have is simply monstrous. Without exaggerating, Heian Ciemnosc’s current numbers were more than in the past, and his Godly troops more than a few dozen billion. It was an insane amount of Godly troops which could very well begin something extraordinary.

However, while that was something extraordinary, it wasn’t the most difficult obstacle. The hardest complication at hand wasn’t something like conquering a group of Kingdoms, or the Illimitato Occhio Divine Galaxy even. No, what was difficult was the matter at hand. Heian Ciemnosc had to deal with the ⅔ of the Authoritarian summit Divine Kingdom, which was already pacified once more.

Before entering his seclusion into the becoming, Heian Ciemnosc sent 2 Armament Race, Armament Air Force, and Grand Fleet military units, with their respective Dictators. Liliam and Hexitia. They were handpicked by Heian Ciemnosc to go visit the proximate enemy, the Borg Empire, that has recuperated from their previous tragedy and could now threaten the Shadow’s objectives.

Feeling honored and heavy-duty-filled by the task at hand and Heian Ciemnosc’s trust in them, the pair of inseparable 2, never changing, set off to the ⅔, away from the core zone. It was a tip meant for them, one that the black monster envisioned tens of thousands of years ago. Now, it was time to prove it worth it.

However, Heian Ciemnosc didn’t have to wait long. He didn’t send the troops to just visit and say hello to the Borg Empire’s territory. They were meant to open up a variety of skirmishes as they tried out the proximate enemy, not to converse with them.

As a result, Heian Ciemnosc didn’t have to wait for long before they returned. The forces he sent them with returned, mostly alive, albeit a few severely damaged Shadow war instruments were all that remained. On the other hand, Liliam and Hexitia… they returned harmed in 2 different ways.
