The Queen of the Florennum Rhianna Larias, waited in front of the teleportation gate for her Lord's arrival.
After the descent of the Hell, the whole world on this side had been plunged into chaos, while the other side was taken over by panic.
This no doubt was an advent to apocalypse.
As she was staying here, thousands were dying each second on some part.
Humans, elves, beastkins, orcs and every other race was trying to get as far as away from the harm of death.
But deep inside they knew that the only way to survive was to win.
That was why all races had come to the two places forming a solid front led by the Federation of Beastkins and the other one by the Queen of Elven Empire Liliana Moonbryn.
The Florennum had yet to sent reinforcements, as the King of Florennum stood near Rhianna who now was the Priestess of 'Salvation'.
"Rhianna, I'm the King of this Kingdom! Then why do I need to wait for someone else's orders to move my people!? " He asked loudly.
Rhianna looked at her husband without any feelings, the man who was the father of her children and the one she once loved.
Her two daughters standing beside her as well looked at this man who was their father with contempt.
This man was just a proxy King with no real authority, as his advisors, bodyguards and Family was all rigged by now.
Rhianna and her husband shared the same bloodline and her husband just belonged to the main Royal Family branch.
After marrying her brother, Rhianna had a peaceful life.
She gave birth to the two Princesses and a Prince.
But even though she had intensive medical care and every kind of help available, she fell sick after giving birth to her last daughter.
Her husband did everything he could to save her, but as time passed her condition worsened.
Slowly her husband, as well gave up on treating her after doing his best.
Rhianna had lost everything, but she regained her will when few years ago her Lord saved her.
His unbounded kindness gave her the hope in this desolate world.
At start, it was just gratitude. But in just some days, she found out that her feelings stemmed from her heart.
And one day, her Lord bestowed upon her his blessings.
After that she could not deny her feelings, she had fallen in love with her Lord.
But she was just a mere mortal, while her Lord was a mythical God, so most she can do was to stay by his side as his servant.
Rhianna glared at her husband, " High Priestess, has given us the mission to greet this great personage of greatest and utmost importance and then escort them till the core of Elven Empire. Are you saying you are going against her orders? "
Rihanna's words were informal, anyone could see that she was blatantly disrespecting the sovereign of this Kingdom.
But, the King couldn't say anything, but grit his teeth in anger and loss.
His wife Rhianna who once loved him so much, now hated him to the core.
She hadn't even let him touch her, from so long.
The King gulped down as his eyes fell upon the seductive figure of his wife, after recovering from her disease she had become even more beautiful as if instead of getting old she had become younger.
Right now, she was wearing a beautiful long robe that covered her whole body, only leaving her snow white arms naked.
On her head she wore the crown that signified her status as the Queen, her beautiful blonde hair donned in a graceful hairstyle making her charm multiply.
But seeing his beautiful wife who he loved even now, the King only felt more and more helplessness.
Rhianna was always smart and once upon a time she had helped him to manage this Kingdom, but now the same Rhianna had used her capabilities to take over all authority of the Kingdom from him.
'This bitch! Because of her my whole of the Kingdom has fallen in the hands of some lunatics and cultists! And she also has joined those cultists along with my daughters, ' the King thought.
"Mother, we need to reinforce our allies. We can't wait any longer, otherwise we'll become traitors who didn't help their allies in the time of need, " Said a young man who was standing beside the King.
Rhianna scoffed, " Don't tell me what to do. You're just a soldier in the army. So what you need to do is to follow orders. Don't make me repeat myself. "
The young Prince was ashamed of this rebuking from his mother, who once so kindly treated him.
'Those cultists must have done something to mother, otheriwise how could she hate even her own child? ' He thought.
The young prince was right. But he couldn't do anything.
But just then the teleportation gate lightened up.
"My Lord is here, everyone kneel down including you two as well and this is an order, if you don't follow then you can leave this Kingdom and start from scratch under the sea, " Said Rhianna quickly.
The King and the Prince were frightened, they knew that this women won't hesitate to kill them off, she no longer was their kind and polite Rhianna.
Every assassination attempt on her was destroyed, she herself was strong enough to strangle even the strongest warrior in Florennum.
Everyone kneeled down, as the light ended.
A handsome young boy with a majestic aura came out.
The Young Prince squeezed a glance up and was shocked seeing Alex.
This boy was famous throughout the world, as he had singlehandedly destroyed the Demonic front while at the same time helping the Hero to kill the Demon King.
His background was nothing to scoff at as well, he was even the role model of all young men in the world.
Alex looked around and in the end nodded at the Queen.
"I'm leaving for the Elven Empire, you all follow there as soon as possible, " He ordered as next second he disappeared.
The King stood up and asked in surprise, " What was that person doing here? "
Rhianna didn't bother to reply to her husband and said to her elder daughter, " Take all armies and march to the Elven Kingdom. "
The King and the Prince as well became ready with heroic aura. But-
"You two will stay here, with your pathetic strength you two will only be burden to my daughter, " Said Rhianna cutting off any kind of resistance.
The King had to begrudgingly leave alongside his son. He decided that it was now too much. He now had to complain to his grand-mother, also the Protector of the Kingdom of Florennum.
Rhianna's elder daughter nodded to Rhianna and all three women hugged each other.
Her eldest daughter was leaving for war, without any confidence for returning alive.
But still Rhianna kissed her elder daughter's forehead, saying, " Our Lord will be there, so you don't need to worry. It will be fine. "
Her younger sister as well cheered happily, " You'll make our Lord proud, after all you're my big sister. "
The Princess smiled and nodded, " Dying for our Lord is also a kind of fortune. "
After that none of them talked much as the armies of Florennum left for the service of the Lord of 'Salvation'.

On the other side...
After hearing about Alex's departure Melissa, Rachel and Eliza were in shock and worries.
"Damn, why did he go there? Didn't he know that that place is dangerous? " Said the Saintess of the Church of Stars, Elizabeth.
"He's so caring... And that's why I love him... " Said the Hero Rachel.
Melissa held her head saying, " That Elven Princess is Ririko! She might even harm Alex, we need to save him. "
Suddenly Rachel asked, " What about the Queen of Demonic Spirits? "
Melissa dismissed Rachel's worries saying, " As much as I know him, a bitch like her won't be a problem. Alex himself is strong and also careful, he won't take risks until they are not for his Family. "
Eliza worriedly said, " But what about that Elven Empress Liliana or also Ririko? Alex seems to have become attached to her. "
Melissa nodded, " That's the main issue, she might use his naivety and love to kill him. That's why we are leaving with my Dragons. Get ready. "
"Yes! " Said Rachel and Eliza.

On the frontline at Elven Kingdom....
Florence and Rose fought with everything they had against the endless swarm of Demonic Spirits.
There was darkness everywhere, the world had plunged into shadows.
The hell had descended!
Rose looked up to see her Master battling against dozens of Demonic spirits each having strength equal to the Demon King!
If one spirit died then other two will replace it, this cycle was unending.
Rose herself was following with everything.
Sweat ran down her body as she chanted, " Rise from Darkness! Engulf the Life! Vanquish the Light! My loyal subordinates embrace their Deaths! "
The undeads fought with even more vigor.
Elven undeads stood up, joining their dead comrades on the front lines, becoming meat shields for others.
Flora and Rose had come here as soon as Flora felt the descent of Hell.
Right now they were holding the line by giving their everything.
But it was impossible to maintain this situation.
The Queen of Demonic Spirits was watching from the Darkness waiting for her Master Flora and the Great World Tree to weaken.
Rose looked at her side, there was standing a beautiful young elf in pure white dress which could not conceal her curves at all.
She was the person she hated and now she did even more, but in this world they were enemies with different goals.
But right now, they were both fighting against the death with Life and Death.
Rose weilded the Death.
Liliana wielded the Life.
They were the main reason that the living armies hadn't faltered.
Liliana or Ivy as named by Alex looked at Rose.
She had remembered all of her memories after parting with Alex.
With return of her memories Ivy was feeling very confused.
She remembered how Alex had raped her while laughing evilly.
But she couldn't match the same Alex with her Master who had cared for her so much and loved her so much.
She wanted to believe that they were two totally different people.
Ivy sighed, deciding to think about this at some other time.
"Do you need something? " Asked Ivy to Rose.
In this world Rose was the sister of her Master or Alex.
But Ivy knew who she was.
She was someone who was sharpening her claws to harm her Master, just like her bitch of a Master whose strength brought frown even upon the face of The Queen of Demonic Spirits.
Ivy siged, the Witch of Disaster was too strong.
She needed to become stronger to protect her Master...
But before that she needed to survive now.
She chanted while holding the staff made from the branch of the World Tree.
"The benevolent World Tree, please bestow upon your worshippers the strength to contest for their life! "
A gentle light shined upon the every soldier fighting against Demonic Spirits, rejuvenating their lost spirits.
They had to fight until there is a chance!
A chance to end this war!
But just as she was thinking, a sharp light sped towards her heart.
Ivy froze feeling death creeping upon her, her heart sank, the dread of not being able to see her Master again came up.
T-This...
But just then a figure appeared before her, shielding her from the harm.
The sharp light stabbed in the figure's body, as the figure fell down.
Other soldiers quickly came and reinforced the magic spells while covering their Empress' defenses with their bodies.
The assailant had somehow bypassed all protective spells!
But Ivy didn't have time for this.
"K-Kitty!! " She yelled while taking the bloodied figure in her arms.
Kitty was her sister...
The closest person to her after her Master.
They both loved Alex and that was what made them love each other as well.
Ivy sobbed, as she chanted healing spells.
But Kitty stopped her.
"Sister, stop!... Don't waster energy... On me... Your people are dying... " Said Kitty while blood flowed from side of her lips.
Ivy sobbed like a child, " Shut up! What will I say to Master, if something happened to you?! "
A tears flowed down, Kitty's eyes, " Yeah... Live for Master... It was my mission... To help you... That was why... Master gave me... Life... And now I have paid what I owed... "
Ivy cried while saying, " No! You never owed anyone anything. You're my sister and also Master's women. So you can't die! "
Kitty's voice became smaller, " I just wanted... To see Master again... But tell him... That I protected you... Just like he told me to... And tell... I love him. A-And...if there's next life... Then I wish that I meet my Master again... And... Become his pet..."
After just when Kitty was about to close her eyes peacefully, she heard her Master's voice.
"You're my pet. So you can only leave me when I let you. "
Kitty felt that she was hallucinating on her last breath.
She had heard that people think about their most important and beloved thing at their death.
She was glad that her Master was her most beloved.
She wanted to open her mouth to say thank you for the life that he had given to her.
She remembered how she was bought from a slave trader...
How he treated her...
How he made food for her...
How he played with her and loved her, as if she was his pet...
How he took her virginity and became her mate...
How they enjoyed their days at that small house in that small village...
She could remember every corner of that small house, as that was the place where she got to experience her Master's affection and love.
She wanted to open her mouth to say something...
But strength left her body, as she felt a soothing sensation taking over her.
She felt something soft on her lips and then darkness took over her.
After who knows how much time, Kitty opened her eyes.
Everything was white around her.
"Is this the heaven Master talked about? " Kitty thought, but her words came out without even her speaking.
"W-What is this place? " She thought surprised.
"Am I dead? " She pondered.
Her Master had said that after death, their souls will travel through the space into an another realm, in which they would travel through the Universe to a place that was completely mysterious.
Her Master had said that, that place was so mysterious that even he himself didn't know what or where it was.
"Death is a mystery, that not even the strongest being in this world knows about. That is why even I fear death, " That was what her Master had once said.
But just then a dark figure materialized in front of her.
The black silhouette was completely contrasting the everything in white around.
But the silhouette said in a feminine voice, " Welcome Setsuna-"
Kitty quickly cut the voice off, " Kitty. That's my name. I'm no longer Setsuna. "
Kitty could not see the facial expressions on the dark silhouette's face, but she could feel that it was smiling.
The feminine voice continued, " You are mostly ignorant about everything. So I'll patiently explain everything and also the reason why I brought you here. "
"I'm the manifestation of this World's all living beings' past, present and future. I don't know how I was created or rather no being knows how they were created, but one thing I know is that this world is me and I'm this world. I'm the World's Will of this world in which you were born. "
