Chapter 62: The Expanding Forces of the Inner Worlds (Within A Month)
The Divine Triad's inner worlds are not static, but ever-expanding realms that grow and evolve with time. However, the flow of time within these realms operates on a different scale compared to the outside multiverse. While a single day in the outside multiverse corresponds to a full year in the inner worlds, this temporal difference has profound implications for the growth and development of these worlds.
Because of this time dilation, everything within the inner worlds—be it the realms themselves, their inhabitants, or their forces—continuously expands and increases in scale over time. A year inside a realm represents a 365-day cycle, during which the forces grow exponentially. Therefore, the forces of each realm, including the Lumiel's Army of Light, Umbrios' Shadow Legion, and Drakion's Draconic Host, will continue to grow as time flows, creating an ever-expanding military power.

Calculating the Growth of Forces in a Month Outside the Inner Worlds
Given that one day outside equals one year inside, the forces of the Inner Worlds will grow significantly within the span of even a single month outside.
A single month in the outside multiverse (30 days) corresponds to 30 years inside the inner worlds.
Let's calculate how much each force will increase within that time frame:
---
1. Lumiel's Army of Light (Luxoria Eterna)
Celestial Archons: 10,000
Increase in a Month: 10,000 * 30 = 300,000
Total: 310,000
Luminara Knights: 1 billion
Increase in a Month: 1,000,000,000 * 30 = 30 billion
Total: 31 billion
Lightborn Legion: 100 billion
Increase in a Month: 100,000,000,000 * 30 = 3 trillion
Total: 3 trillion
Seraphim Riders: 5 million
Increase in a Month: 5,000,000 * 30 = 150 million
Total: 155 million
---
2. Umbrios' Shadow Legion (Umbra Nexum)
Shadow Warlords: 50,000
Increase in a Month: 50,000 * 30 = 1.5 million
Total: 1.55 million
Ebon Knights: 500 million
Increase in a Month: 500,000,000 * 30 = 15 billion
Total: 15.5 billion
Nocturnal Stalkers: 10 billion
Increase in a Month: 10,000,000,000 * 30 = 300 billion
Total: 310 billion
Nightshade Beasts: 2 million
Increase in a Month: 2,000,000 * 30 = 60 million
Total: 62 million
---
3. Drakion's Draconic Host (Drakarys Aeterna)
Draconian Overlords: 20,000
Increase in a Month: 20,000 * 30 = 600,000
Total: 620,000
Flameborn Legionnaires: 1 billion
Increase in a Month: 1,000,000,000 * 30 = 30 billion
Total: 31 billion
Skybound Wyverns: 100 million
Increase in a Month: 100,000,000 * 30 = 3 billion
Total: 3.1 billion
Infernal Titans: 1 million
Increase in a Month: 1,000,000 * 30 = 30 million
Total: 31 million

The Inner Worlds grow at an unimaginable rate, expanding in both size and military strength each month. The Divine Triad, having absolute control over these realms, ensures that their forces become increasingly more powerful with each passing moment. However, as noted, their reluctance to move these forces beyond their inner worlds remains unchanged. With the power of their legions growing exponentially, the Divine Triad ensures that the forces of the outer multiverse are more than capable of defending their realms from any threats that might arise.
