Chapter 20 - Chapter 19 The void realm

"Become my subordinate Torax." Said, Ray

Torax stands up. "Brother I.. what have you done?" Asked Torax.

"It's simple Torax, these ten orcs killed everyone in the village that I used to live in." Said Ray.

"What do you mean living in? We are from the same village!" Exclaimed Torax.

Thorzen transforms into his Changeling form. "This is my true form." Said Ray.

"What happened to Torac?!" Exclaimed Torax. Anger began to show on Torax face.

Zak, Zet, and Zen point their spears at Torax. Prime moves behind him.

"I'll explain after you calm down!" Said, Ray

Torax looks around at the kobolds and Prime.

Torax begins to calm down.

"Ok, Torax now that you calmed down. I'll tell you what happened to your brother. When I went to scout the troglodytes I found your brother chained to a post. Your brother was beaten to an inch of his life. He was about to die when I returned to him, so I assimilated him." Explained Ray.

"You! What?!" Exclaimed Torax. Torax try's to move towards Ray.

Prime grabs Torax by his shoulders. Torax stops moving.

"Release him prime!" Commanded Ray.

Prime released Torax.

Torax shrugs his shoulders.

"Let me continue." Said Ray.

"Prime gather the orc bodies and their weapons." Said Ray. (Telepathy).

"Yes, Thorzen. Said Prime. (telepathy).

"As I was saying I assimilated Torac." Said Ray.

Prime finishes gathering the bodies and weapons.

Thorzen walks over and places both hands on the piled-up bodies and weapons. "Assimilate!" Yelled Ray. The bodies and weapons begin to turn liquidity. 10%, 20%, ..., 90%, 100%. Assimilation completed.

Torax's eyes are bugging out of his head. He is shocked and afraid of what he just witnessed.

Ray looks at Torax. "Now Torax join me to become my subordinate." Said Ray.

Torax looks down in silence.

"Torax your brother Torac will become one of my Sentinel Generals. Join me Torax!" Said Ray.

Torax looks up at Thorzen. "I'll be able to see Torac again?" Asked Torax.

"Yes, you will Torax." Said, Ray

The three kobolds look at Thorzen.

Torax nods his head yes. "I'll become your subordinate." Said Torax.

"Excellent!!" Yelled Ray.

"Come over here all of you! Athena activates my void realm." Said Ray.

"Yes, Ray. Do you wish to bring them with you Ray?" Asked Athena.

"Yes, Athena. Bring them." Said Ray.

A black portal appears before the group and envelops them. They travel through darkness and then appear in Ray's void realm.

"Chief what is this place?" Asked Zak.

"This is my void realm created for me by my gods." Said Ray.

"Your gods?" Asked Zet.

"Yes, ancient gods from...., just know that they are gods from where I originated from." Said Ray.

The kobolds and orc look at each other and nod their heads.

"This way follow me." Said Ray.

As they start to walk a bright light appears. Everyone raises their hands to block the light. The bright light begins to fade and a figure appears in front of them.

"Welcome master." Said the female figure.

Ray looks at the figure and recognized the very familiar woman standing in front of him. "Honey.... " mumbled Ray. Ray shakes his head no.

"Oh, Athena it's nice to see you. But what did I tell you about calling me, master." Said Ray.

"Sorry master, but you have company and it is only proper that I call you master in front of them." Said, Athena.

"Fine Athena. Take us to the garden." Said Ray.

"Yes, master." Said, Athena.

As the group nears the garden they begin to see spectral-like figures walking around the garden.

"Who and what are they?" Asked Torax.

"They are the manifestation of the assimilated."Said, Athena.

"The assimilated?" Asked Zet.

"Yes, the people and creatures that master assimilated." Said, Athena.

Everyone looks at Thorzen. Thorzen just smiles and keeps walking.

"We arrived." Said, Athena.

"Fantastic! Athena show me where Torac and Tormac seeds are." Said Thorzen.

Athena points to two seeds that are next to each other.

"Ok thank you Athena I got this. You five can stay here or explore the void realm." Said Thorzen.

Torax, Zak, Zen, and Zet take off and explore. Prime stands by Thorzen.

Athena, I want the following knowledge seeds, military strategy, combat skills, weapon mastery, communication, leadership traits(Bearing, courage, decisiveness, dependability, endurance, enthusiasm, initiative, integrity, judgment, justice, knowledge, loyalty, tact, and unselfishness), and martial arts." Said Ray.

"This should do for combat generals. Athena a fortify seed as well." Said Thorzen.

"Unable to use fortify seed." Said, Athena.

"Why?" Asked Thorzen.

"Your sentinel Generals already have 50% fortify from the life seeds. You may only use fortify seeds on your non-sentinel subordinates." Said, Athena.

"Ok, that's fine." Said Thorzen.

"Are you satisfied with the settings for your sentinel Generals?" Asked Athena.

"Yes, I'm happy with them." Said Thorzen.

"Do you want to create life with these two orcs?"Asked Athena.

"Yes I do but I want to wait until I get back to the orc village." Said Ray.

"Ok, Ray. Once you are ready use your create life ability and the sentinels will be reborn with your specifications." Said, Athena.

"Got it, Athena. Thank you." Said Ray.

"Your welcome Ray." Said, Athena.

"Athena, what would happen if I create life without a life seed?" Asked Ray.

"The life created wouldn't be alive it would be an undead." Said, Athena.

"Undead! That has potential but I don't want to create undead at this time." Said Ray.

"The undead would make great soldiers for your army Ray." Said, Athena.

"I'll keep that in mind for now. Athena show me around the realm." Said Ray.

"Yes, Ray." Said, Athena.

They head east of the gardens as they walk Ray notices trees, rocks, hills, a stream, and some buildings ahead of them. The road they are walking on is made of stone. They approach the first building.

"This building is your laboratory you can experiment on spells, potions, theories, etc." Said, Athena.

"Nice! I'll have to come here when I have the time."Said Ray.

The pair head to a large building that looks like a coliseum.

"Is this a coliseum?" Asked Ray.

"Yes, you can say that Ray. But is more like a training ground for you and your subordinates. Do you want to go inside?" Said, Athena.

"No, not now let's continue with the tour." Said Ray.

Athena nods and heads to the next building. Before they get to the next building Ray stops.

Ray points.

"What are these here?" Asked Ray.

"Those are the god's shrines." Said, Athena.

Ray looks at the shrines ten rows of shrines each looking like an Ancient Greek god. Except one. The smallest shrine.

"What is this one?" Asked Ray.

As Ray walks closer he begins to see the resemblance.

"That's a shrine of you Ray." Said, Athena.

"Of me? Why?" Asked Ray

"As you level you get stronger. The stronger you get, the closer you get to becoming a Demigod Ray. So it's only natural that you get a shrine, Ray."Said, Athena.

"Ok, I get it, Athena. I never imagined that I would become a demigod." Said Ray.

"You still have a long ways to go, you have to be level 100 to begin your journey into godhood." Said, Athena.

"Now you got me interested in the coliseum Athena. Let's head over there." Said Ray.

"Yes, Ray." Said, Athena.
