As the AI began sorting through the flood of requests for the star system's coordinates, ensuring only those who promised aid within the set timeframe were considered, Xalthar’s communicator buzzed. The heads of his organization were contacting him with remarkable speed, a clear sign they were far from pleased with his recent actions.

Despite this, Xalthar remained unfazed. His circuit-like veins, once pulsing with anger, shifted color to a calmer hue as he accepted the call without hesitation. He showed no signs of concern, confident that he wasn’t going to be on hot waters by the end of the conversation with him.

"WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!" The voice on the other end wasted no time, launching straight into the core of the matter. There was no greeting, no room for Xalthar to show the customary respect as the caller was not just his superior in rank as the leader of the organization but also in strength, two levels beyond Sage. If it came down to it, he could easily crush Xalthar

    They say when it rains, it pours. That is what the Conclave was experiencing at the moment, as they were now trying to withdraw after losing a quarter of their ships without even realizing what hit them. This made it nearly impossible to avoid what they didn’t see coming, resulting in the order to retreat immediately being given fleet-wide by the next person in the command chain. He was informed just a few seconds after the joint computer network went through the command structure, verifying whether his superiors were alive or dead before it moved to the next name if they were dead or unavailable. When it reached him, he was given all of the privileges, which he instantly used to call for an immediate retreat, because if things continued as they were, the empire's pincer attempt would succeed and make retreating even harder.However, despite the decision being a good one, it was very difficult to bring to reality without additional casualties. They couldn’t enter FTL speed due to the

  • 972 - Birth of Stars

    The Conclave fleet started spreading to avoid contact with the missile-like objects, which constantly adjusted their flight path toward their targeted ships. This forced the Conclave fleet to disperse further, but the objects had countermeasures, as they too constantly adjusted their positioning in 3D space. This required the movements made by the Conclave ships to be more aggressive than the oncoming objects in order to continue keeping them at bay, all while continuously firing at them.This spread had the negative effect of making individual ships easy to single out and target by the imperial pincering fleet, unlike when they were clustered together.FLASH!!!!!!! A flash of light, followed by a round of explosions, lit the battlefield, announcing the first imperial vessel's casualty, a direct result of the Shadari Torpedo. It was obvious to anyone that the ship was an intentional sacrifice in order to deal with the torpedo and not have it on the back of their minds, a tactic only t

    TWIF! TWOF! TWUF! TWAFF! TWIF! TWOF! TWUF! TWAFF!In the silence of space, thrusters in different areas of an attacking ship activated with millisecond intervals to ensure the ship's movements were predictable, while also fine-tuning its positioning in preparation for the next action half the imperial interceptor fleets were about to partake in. The thrusters divided the sheeps into their respective assigned action groups, with everything taking place while invisible to the enemy due to the large shield curtain in front of them, which was still deflecting the lasers being continuously sent by the Conclave fleet, who wanted to try and drain its energy and see if they could break through it.Only ten seconds had passed since they started attacking each other, but the number of attacks and the speed at which things were happening would make anyone who experienced it think hours had gone by.Once all the action groups were divided, totaling eighteen to be exact, they instantly started ac

    “Oh, God,” Ayaka said as she walked out of the stargate, feeling the large amount of poisoned mana being radiated from a distance.Although she felt the radiated mana, what surprised her the most was the life force fluctuation happening in that direction; years of longevity were being expelled with each second, making her sure that whoever it was happening to was not having a good time.“Miss Ayaka and Mr. Lee, please come with me,” a fully armored soldier said to them a few seconds after they walked out of the stargate, immediately escorting them toward a waiting ship that took off the moment they boarded, taking them to where the Emperor was.{The Emperor is currently experiencing mana poisoning due to a technicality in a mana contract. What we need from you is to try your best to help him as he deals with the situation, or if you have a solution, to provide one,} Nova appeared and gave them a summary of the situation. Images showed the Emperor seated in a meditation position, radia

    [...........][..........][........][.......]The system lines stopped the moment he triggered the knot in his soul, as if it were now trying to adapt to Aron’s actions.With it also came a moment of silence and reprieve from the pain, but despite that, he didn’t feel relief as he was yet to know if it was a temporary fix or not. Soon, his body answered for him.“Mhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,” he groaned, trying to hold the shout in, knowing that the moment he shouted, his mental defenses against the pain would once again give up. Instead, he decided to sit down in a meditation position, interlocking his fingers while touching his thumbs together and closing his eyes, trying to pinpoint what was happening. Although the pain had returned and was worse than the first hit, this one felt like a mixture, with a part coming from his soul that constantly poisoned his mana, while the additional pain was coming from a different source.As he once again started dumping all of the newly poisoned mana, si

  • 968 - A Trillon Reasons

    Ship after ship came and absorbed the mana Aron was expelling, as the situation didn’t seem to be subsiding at all.As Nova scanned the collected mana that was delivered to one of the labs on Mars she was now commandeering. It took a few minutes before the first round of results started coming out.{He is experiencing mana poisoning from the inside,} Nova said, realizing what the problem was after going through Aron’s mana, which had something that was not native to him or normal for his mana, something she was very knowledgeable about as she interacted with his mana on a daily basis.She instantly started simulating potential causes, and after only a second, having repurposed a full quantum server supercluster for the simulation, she came up with at least a trillion reasons, but only a single one was at the top, having a more than fifty percent chance of being the cause: the mana contract they had with the Conclave that Aron had unfortunately personally signed following the first war
