Volume 6, Chapter 1 – Seles

The dark Underground World.

In the Underground World, aside from the Fortress, there actually also existed independent forces aligned with the Neutral Faction, belonging to no faction at all.

For example, the Mohayda Underground City that Tianyin had once visited.

That underground city was an underground power mainly made up of Minotaurs and Dark Elves.

Of course, there were many such underground cities scattered throughout the Underground World. Ever since the Dark Elves had been banished from the elf race down into the Underground World, the fallen Dark Elves had survived and taken root there.

After hundreds and thousands of years, the traces of these Dark Elves, with their sly and insidious personalities, had already spread across the Underground World.

And not long ago… the Dark Elves in the Underground World, who had originally been scattered like loose sand, had inexplicably united.

No… rather than calling it unity, it would be better to say they had been forcibly gathered together by a certain existence.

Long jet-black hair, a delicate face, and a curvaceous figure.

In this lavish and magnificent palace, this Dark Elf girl, so beautiful it seemed unreal, sat at the center of the hall.

Surrounding the Dark Elf girl, the residents of the Underground World knelt on the floor like humble servants, their foreheads pressed tightly against the ground.

Among them were burly Minotaurs, and also voluptuous, alluring Dark Elf women.

Of course, the Underground World definitely did not consist only of these races, yet at this Dark Elf girl’s side, there were only Dark Elves and Minotaurs.

At this moment, the Elf girl had her eyes tightly closed, her small hand propping up her cheek. In such a posture, she gave off the feeling that she was sleeping.

Yet even with the Elf girl in such a state, the Minotaurs and Dark Elves below still kept their foreheads pressed to the floor. They did not dare make any action that might be considered overstepping.

At this time, a Dark Elf maid hurried in from outside the palace. The instant she caught sight of the Elf girl, she immediately knelt and bowed low.

“Your Majesty… the consolidated Dark Elf army has already reached a number of over three hundred thousand, and the Minotaur army has also reached a number of two million… these troops… are already the maximum we can muster…”

In this incomparably quiet palace, the voice of the Elf maid suddenly rang out, abrupt and clear.

After her voice fell, quite some time passed before the Elf girl, who seemed to have been asleep with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes.

“Only that much? Not even three million soldiers?”

As she spoke, an intimidating pressure began to radiate from the Elf girl’s body.

“That many people is far from enough… with only that many, how am I supposed to count on them to help me take Dawn?”

Thin threads of anger could be heard in the girl’s voice. However, after she let her temper flare a little, her gaze once again calmed down.

“If the numbers are not enough, I can borrow them… send someone to the Abyss to find the Abyssal Lord. I need to borrow its Abyssal army.”

“T-This… this doesn’t seem good, Your Majesty…”

The moment the Elf girl made this decision, a Dark Elf below gritted her teeth and stepped forward.

“Your Majesty… the demons of Inferno eat people without spitting out the bones… working with those demons like this is really too unsafe, isn’t it?”

“Unsafe? How exactly is it unsafe?”

“T-This…”

Being questioned in return by the Elf girl, that Dark Elf hesitated.

“Your Majesty… I just feel that joining forces with the demons of the Abyss will definitely affect your rule…”

“Rule? Hahahahahahahahaha, what kind of joke are you telling me?”

At the Dark Elf’s explanation, or rather the excuse she had come up with, the Elf girl’s lips curled up, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

“For me, that so-called rule, all those fancy things, are completely unnecessary. Power. All I need is absolute power.”

As the Elf girl spoke, the aura around her became even more terrifying.

At the same time, a thick, bone-chilling killing intent began to seep out.

“With absolute power, you can have anything. Whether it is authority, wealth… or anything else you desire.”

“For me, having power is already enough.”

“Don’t you think so?”

Feeling that formless yet ice-cold killing intent directed at her alone, the Dark Elf’s delicate face was filled with unrestrained terror.

“Y-Your… Your Majesty… I… I…”

“I-I was wrong, Your Majesty… p-please, spare me…”

Hearing this, the Elf girl narrowed her eyes and smiled faintly.

“Spare you?”

“If I spared someone who dared to contradict me, then where would my dignity as a queen be placed?”

Amid her broken, terrified words, the Dark Elf’s eyes lost their light.

“I… I…”

In the next second, that Dark Elf collapsed to the ground without a sound. A moment later, scarlet blood slowly began to seep out from beneath her body.

“Hmph.”

Looking at the lifeless Dark Elf, the Elf girl’s expression was incomparably cold.

“Did you think that just because you are Legendary-tier I wouldn’t dare kill you? Even if you are Legendary-tier, in my eyes as Seles, you are nothing more than a slightly stronger ant…”

Her aloof voice slowly echoed through the palace. This Elf girl, named Seles, suddenly stood up from her seat.

Then her icy gaze, in which not a trace of warmth could be seen, swept over the Dark Elves and Minotaurs around her.

“Send people directly to attempt contact with the demons of the Abyss. No matter what, no matter what excuse or method you use, I want you to get me a demon army equal in number to our own army.”

“And the time I give you is only ten days.”

“If within ten days I don’t see news of an Abyssal army as large as three million, then with every extra day that passes, I’ll kill one of you.”

“Do you understand?”

“Yes!!”

The corpse of the Legendary-tier Dark Elf that Seles had killed still lay inside the palace. Knowing full well what kind of person Seles was, the Minotaurs and Dark Elves around her all had unsettled, panicked expressions on their faces.

“Very good… I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

Seles nodded calmly.

“I like that you won’t lie to me, and I also believe in your abilities. I hope that ten days from now I can lead our army out of the Underground World and launch an attack on the Main World.”

“And what I want to see even more is that, the moment we step out of the Underground World, our army can flatten the first faction standing before us in the shortest time possible.”

“Dawn.”

Ten days later.

Without anyone knowing, at the entrance of the gorge that Tianyin had once found in order to enter Inferno, the entrance that led down into the Underground World, a vast army was quietly marching out.
