1 WEEK LATER.

"Man… I wish we could leave the normal soldiers out of this. They're just doing their duty." said Kahn as he contemplated their battle strategy.

[Kid… if you don't have the balls to do it, let me handle this matter.

You know by now that whether you kill someone for personal gain, goals or you kill them in the name of justice, revenge or some higher purpose even if it's for the sake of the world; whether they are a criminal who deserved it or an innocent child who was but a bystander…

Killing is still killing.] said Rathnaar harshly, giving Kahn a reality check.

[I'm not going to comfort you with some twisted logic to justify what we're about to do. And I'll definitely not sugarcoat the cruelty and evil we're about to commit.

So stop acting like a fucking hypocrite bitch and get the job done!] he berated the latter without a shred of pity.

"Listen, child. I do not know how things worked in your previous world but in Vantrea… strongest rule the world while the weak are helpless against the events planned by fate.

If you do not wish to taint your sanity or bear any responsibility… it's better that you don't come at all." said Vildred who floated beside Kahn and Aragorn.

Kahn took a deep breath and spoke again, this time revealing a firm gaze.

"It doesn't matter what I think. My hands are already covered in the blood of innocents even when I didn't mean to kill them." he spoke.

"In my previous world, a wise warrior once said…" he continued in a stoic voice as he recanted the words of a certain God of War.

"Close your heart to it. Close your heart to their desperation. Close your heart to their suffering.

Do not allow yourself to feel for them. They will not feel for you."

His words resounded in the surroundings as he mentally prepared himself for a massacre.

The one he wasn't going to be proud of… but the necessary one.

At Midnight.

Under the blanket of bright moonlight and chilly breeze that gave a sense of serenity…

"This is the day when imperial heirs have to mandatorily travel to a hidden graveyard to pay respects to our ancestors every year no matter what.

We will not get another chance to catch them off guard." spoke Aragorn.

"All of you! In position. Don't leave a single survivor." said Kahn as all of his subordinates disappeared across the site that they had chosen.

In a vast and densely forested mountainous region that was more of a secret route used only by the imperial clan.

Crackle!

Crackle!

The mountainous had thousands of trees caught on fire while the surrounding 50 kilometers region was either getting destroyed at dozens of places by attacks from the entities fighting in the air or the warships that were shooting hundreds of magic cannons at the gigantic monstrosities flinging elemental attacks at the army of 50 thousand soldiers in white and green armors.

Over this region, was an impenetrable white and blue intangible dome that had isolated this entire space from the outside world.

This imperial envoy carrying one of the most important people in the entire Zivot Empire was attacked out of nowhere.

And in just 10 ten minutes… the scenario of tranquility was turned into that of chaos.

If one looked at it from outside this dome, this region had nothing else but lush greenery and a tranquil environment while the wild monsters and animals made small noises.

Inside the dome however, the army was desperately fighting against these powerful enemies who ambushed them out of nowhere.

This army consisted of Elves, Humans, Demi-Humans, Hybrids and many people of different species.

MRAAA!!

A massive blue flying monster with two heads similar to a shoebill stork in appearance that carried hundreds of soldiers mounted on its back bellowed and fell on the ground after a 50 meters long massive trident made of world energy and hot red magma stabbed through its neck.

Rudra's trident attack skill from 5 kilometers away had taken down this gigantic monster carrying a large number of soldiers.

"No!!" screamed one of the elven soldiers in terror as their group fell amid tall trees and long vines.

The large tree trunks shattered from the impact and the majority of the group was either stabbed or poked through by large splinters.

Among the now-dead hundreds of bodies, only a handful survived. But before any of the lucky people could rejoice in being alive…

THUD!!

Blackwall's massive and titanic figure as big as a mountain stepped on this group, instantly flattening all of them including the flying monster into meat paste under his foot.

On one end, Jugram in Dante appearance was fighting 4 warships and thousands of soldiers manning small flying ships on his own, showing no regard for the lives of the people he was killing surrounded by his Hell Domain.

Similar scenes of brutal massacre occurred across this battlefield. But as the fight between these gigantic figures, and warships continued, few new members arrived.

BANG!!

Hundreds of lightning bolts struck a white and yellow colored warship that sized 200 meters in width as a masked archer in black, blue and yellow armor floated 3 kilometers high in the air.

Oliver in his Icarus persona was hovering high in the sky, showing no sense of fear even though he was being attacked from all sides, evading thousands of magic bullets and cannons swiftly as if the sky itself was his playground.

Soon, the clouds in the sky turned dark as hundreds of lightning strikes were summoned by this Oliver.

Oliver, who was now comparable to a 2nd stage saint, charged his bow and just in a couple of seconds, a massive 100 meter tall phantom of a white and golden bow appeared above this gigantic warship.

Neith Bow's transcendent figure shook all the onlookers.

"No!! This can't be! We're all going to die!" shouted one of the members of the piloting crew inside the cockpit of this warship as they saw this terrifyingly powerful bow amassing all the lightning bolts from the sky into one.

Shoot!!

The sound barrier broke twice as the archer launched his killer move and a 10 meter wide and 80 meter long destructive and terrifying lightning bolt shot itself towards the gigantic warship.

BOOM!!

Blast!!

The massive lightning bolt shot and blasted the entire warship carrying over 10 thousand people and soldiers, tearing it apart from the inside and exploding everything in its way as it completely destroyed the entire warship in seconds.

Thud!

BANG!

Thousands of pieces of debris and charred corpses that were cut into dozens of pieces dropped from the sky while the flesh and bones of the soldiers were ground to dust because of the explosion.

All of them died without knowing why they met such a cruel fate.
