As I rode on Leowynn’s back, the two of us approached the large, blue cluster. It was easy to guess from its appearance that it should have been the location where the mana gems were being produced within the void. However, the fact that the gems within the real world did not explode when they should have was still worrying to me. I did not believe that it had anything to do with our invaders. If anything, their involvement with this ‘blue star’ would have rendered it completely inoperable. Had…-

Standing on the hull of one of the fleet vessels, I looked out and into the void. As I was currently mirroring Leowynn’s abilities, the void looked… different than I was expecting. The black expanse gave way to tints of red, with dark shadows marking the presence of the various void monsters in the area. It was hard to make out the exact shape of each void monster, only that most of them were almost as large as the universe ‘bubbles’ scattered throughout the expanse. Shaking my head, I looked…

“Admiral Degaro, we’re receiving a message over the emergency channel!” A halfling woman called out, her red hair shifting behind her as she turned to look at the man sitting in the command seat. “It’s a mobilization order!” Degaro raised an eyebrow as he looked at the communications officer. “Are we needed back on Earth, then?” He asked, knowing that to be the most likely location for such an order to send them. However, to his surprise, the officer shook her head. “No, all…

Within an hour, I had my answer from the scouting force. Aside from the world which had been destroyed, no other planets in the surrounding systems had been targeted. This showed that the enemy had a way to detect my inhabited planets, which put me at a rather large disadvantage. Previously, I had been hoping that I would be able to force them onto the defensive by getting my detection city quickly operating. Now, they were the ones able to come and go as they please, without me being able to properly…

Not long after my return from Deckan, Dana conveyed to me the prediction that the Terra twins made upon my departure. Had I known that they were capable of predictions on that scale, I would have asked them to do so before I left. As it was… it was still not too difficult to piece together what their prediction meant, in terms of the enemy location. Few people had the evidence to support it, but there were many who likely suspected that Earth was the ‘birthplace of creation’. After all, it was one…

I spent a little bit of time learning the different states of the incarnations that the gods and goddesses had been raising. Of them, the only ones that were ‘complete’ and had ascended to their full divine form were Aurivy and Udona. It really came as no surprise that Aurivy had found the time to ascend, given that she spent almost all of her time at least partially descended and working on various projects or playing with her friend. Of the rest, they were a bit more spread out. For example,…

Several hours passed as the first batch of upgrades were performed within my ‘detection city’. First, resource acquisition was upgraded twice, and then city power. Only when these three projects had finished did I upgrade my detection level. As I did so, the city seemed to rumble, buildings shifting around the Control Hub. Next to the hub, a large satellite dish was quickly constructed. This dish stood over thirty meters tall, on a twenty meter tower overlooking the city. As the dish slowly rotated…

Now that I knew that fallen gods were actually helpful in a way, I could ask the others to be a bit more lenient on them. It’s a bit too late to spread that ‘faith’ in any of the currently civilized planets, but perhaps there would be some that appear in the future in other worlds. Either way, what I needed to do now was focus on my final preparations for the coming invasion. I had previously obtained several decks of spell cards from Deckan, representing various domains that I wanted to…

Things never quite go according to plan… although I wanted to spend my time training to brush up on my skills, that only lasted for a few hours. After all, there were far too many skills in the world. How was I ever going to train all of them? Instead, I focused on only training the skills that would be directly useful to me, such as different domain abilities possessed by various gods. Each domain had such a wide range of applications that it was almost impossible to perfectly cover everything. For…

In truth, the only real preparation left to make on my end was to allow the assembly lines in both Deckan and Lorek to create more and more vessels to get ready for the eventual war that I’d be facing. Given that the enemy likely used void-manufacturing and cloned troops, their production rate would no doubt vastly exceed my own once they were able to establish their base camp. In this way, the best case scenario for me would be if the enemy fleet spawned in directly next to one of my planets. If that…
