The Rise of the Black Plain

The moment he heard one of his men talking about Irpoll’s arch-rival, Callio, a being 5 meters tall, with pale skin, brown fur covering most of his body, and wearing only a large pair of trousers, changed his gaze.

He stood up from his wooden throne in the middle of his forest and indicated for the level 99 being to open his mouth. .

The man continued with what he had to say. “The Adamant Land is in trouble. I don’t have all the pertinent information since the problem has only just come to my attention. But it is a fact that some of the outposts of the damned Mechanic Empire have been weakened.

According to the news my group intercepted, the forces of that world have discovered a new world similar to ours and have begun a war of domination. However, things don’t seem to be going well for them.”

Callio narrowed his large eyebrows, remembering the war of long ago when the robots of The Adamant Land had invaded his world.

However, unlike the many enemies of the Mechanic Empire who fell to that state, the forces of Irpoll stood firm. They expelled all the aliens from The Adamant Land from their world!

The druidic forces of that planet defeated their enemies, forcing them to retreat!

But as strong as Irpoll was, they could not seek revenge until that day.

However, victory in the war did not mean forgiveness for their enemies. The forces of this world had lost much to achieve their victory, and individuals like Callio craved the blood of their enemies.

With that news, the giant ape clenched his fists tightly, excited for what it might mean.

“You did well to warn me, Leriac. Continue with your observation. Send a group through the universal wormhole to the neighboring solar system. If it’s confirmed that The Adamant Land is weakened, we’ll strike them!”

“I’ll do my best, Senior Callio.”

Before Leriac left, Callio added. “Find out everything you can about this new world that The Adamant Land has found.”

“All right. I’ll send you news when I have updates.”

With that being gone, Callio shaped a smile on his large lips, imagining that it was finally time for his world to stand out from those who had attacked them in the past.

Irpoll was originally a peaceful society that had no intention of exploring other worlds. However, that changed with the attempted domination of The Adamant Land and other problems they had after that war!

Now that he was facing this opportunity, that level 100 being, the strongest in this world, couldn’t help but take an interest in the little world his enemies had found.

‘Back then, we almost fell to the profiteers who attacked us after the war. Now is the time to seize the opportunity and dominate two worlds simultaneously!’ He felt full of energy, imagining he could deal with two strong worlds in a weakened moment and gain everything that the two civilizations had.

He left his seat until he reached the top of the trees.

Arriving at the highest point he could go, he gazed at the green sky of his world for a moment before slapping his chest and shouting.

With his war cry, several other Gods like him around his world would understand the call!

…

As a potential new participant in the War of the Worlds began to move in, another full year had passed for Minos’ staff on Zocarro.

More than a year had passed since Minos’ promotion to the rank of Elite Soldier, and his situation in the external area of the Armhands headquarters city had significantly improved.

Before his mission outside the headquarters, he faced problems even after becoming a Foot-and-Rank Soldier. Even though he had fewer problems than in his first year in the guild, back then, he still had to deal with guild members who didn’t want to do business with him or beings who tried to make everything difficult for him.

Being a Law Enforcer wasn’t easy, and many aliens hated him.

However, as he grew in level, hierarchy, and reputation, Minos faced fewer problems in the external part of the city.

There were still beings who wouldn’t look at him and would avoid him. Still, he could now use his merit points without too much trouble and was living relatively well in the external part of the guild headquarters.

Some members of his group had advanced in levels or been promoted, so his faction was also stronger, which only improved his situation.

Maximillian had recently reached level 102, while apart from Ruth and him, everyone else in the group was currently between levels 100 and 101.

Meanwhile, his faction had not only grown in numbers with the men in the group who had been sent to the Speckled Bear Wilds. Some alien friends of Minos and his companions had joined them, including Wana, whom he had mentored in his first weeks in the guild.

Wana had advanced in level and became a Rank-and-File Soldier since then and was preparing to become an Elite Soldier.

Minos continued his work as a Law Enforcer, but he was currently acting alone, being one of the few guards in his position in the external part of the city.

If his situation remained as good as it was at the moment, he could become an internal member of the guild even before he reached level 98!

So he and his group had been living peacefully in the Armhands headquarters, taking advantage of local opportunities and strengthening themselves in the hope that one day they would be able to return to the Spiritual World and settle the war!

…

Today, Minos was once again patrolling the external area of Armhands’ headquarters when he suddenly came across an old enemy.

While observing possible disturbances, Minos saw a creature staring at him. That was no ordinary being but a level 110 Sovereign!

He remembered the member of Silverdawn who had almost killed him and watched the one in silence for a moment.

“Minos Stuart, I suppose.” The Zocarro native approached this young human, face to face with this now guildmate for the first time since joining Armhands.

“You’re that expert…”

“No, that was my twin brother. He died that day.”

“Oh?” “But don’t look at me like that. I’m not here for trouble, hehe.

Anyway, you look well. Those wings of yours are really powerful. They saved you from my brother.” The Sovereign said, looking with interest at Minos.

“Senior, what do you want with me?” Minos asked. “What happened back then…”

“As I said, don’t worry. I wouldn’t be crazy enough to seek revenge on the hero who resolved our forces’ conflict.” He smiled. “I just couldn’t pass up the chance to give it to you.” He handed Minos what looked like a necklace.

“What’s this?” Minos took it carefully.

“This is something the lea… Cough, this is something someone wanted me to give you. Take it, it’s not dangerous. This is an opportunity. You’ll understand when you put some of your energy into it.”
