The World Serpent

The Spirits, Demons, and Supremes finally gathered into one room. It was the Meeting Room which was a Gigantic Room with a Round Table at its center. The Demons and the Supremes stared at each other idly as they investigated the opposing side near them. It was the first time these two different factions saw each other, so it was Normal for them to stare and Investigate the people in front of them.

The Elder Spirit noticing their gaze, couldn't help but shake her head. She then spoke with a calm voice. "Why don't you introduce yourselves." Her voice echoed as the Demons and Supremes turned their gaze towards her. The Elder Spirit could feel power escaping from their eyes as they nodded in agreement. The Dwarf Emperor then stood and introduced himself. 

"I am the Great Ruler of Dwarven, Koldreg." As Koldreg introduced himself. The Elven Empress followed. She stood with her beauty and elegance escaping from her little actions. "My name is Drya, The Great Ruler of the Nation Elda." Drya sat back as Koldreg did the same. The last one was the Beastfolk Ruler. Drya and Koldreg turned their gaze towards her as the Beastfolk Ruler finally stood up and introduced herself. 

"Kitsune, the Great Ruler of Bestia." A Young Lady Supreme of Bestia, She was more or less like Persia. The Supremes completed their introduction as they sat on their chairs and gazed upon the Demons. Luna, Capita, and Marx looked at each other and nodded. Marx then stood up and introduced herself to the Supremes. 

"Marx, An Inquisitor from the Inquisition," Marx spoke with a calm voice, though Koldreg could sense a tinge of vigor and pride. From what Koldreg could hear, He concluded that Max was the same as him. It seemed that Marx was still a muscle head but with the potential to be like him. 

Capita stood up and introduced herself with her emotionless voice. "I am Capita, An Inquisitor from the Inquisition." The Supremes nodded as Capita still had her face, which seemed to not care about anything. Capita sat back down, and it was finally time for the Temporary Leader to speak. 

Luna slowly stood up as her purple amethyst eyes went through everyone in the room. She then introduced herself with a seductive voice. "Luna, Temporary Leader and an Inquisitor from the Inquisition." The Supremes raised an eyebrow after hearing Luna's words. The Temporary Leader of the Inquisition. The real one might have been with Statera, which made sense. 

Now that the introduction got completed, it was time for the meeting to continue. The Elder Spirit coughed and spoke with a calm voice. "The Foreign Nations outside the Great Forest are arming themselves. The Glacies Tundra Nations are gathering themselves and preparing for war against the North Mountain Range Nation, Dwarven." 

Koldreg nodded in understanding as he already had the report about their movements. The Elder Spirit then looked at Drya. "The Southern Region or the Calidus Desert Nations are also gathering and preparing for war. The Indra Region Nation of Elda will meet them and fight them due to being neighbors." 

Drya nodded in agreement as the borders between Indra and Calidus were more or less the same. The Nation of Elda has been dealing with them for centuries though the large gathering might prove problematic. A Preparation for a Long War was the only thing they could do. 

The Elder Spirit looked upon Kitsune and spoke. "The Arcanum Region, which is the most Dangerous Region, is causing some problems. The Devils, Dragons, and Dark Races are planning something. Though, we don't know anything about their plans. Investigating it would be appropriate."

Kitsune thought about it and nodded in understanding. It wasn't much, but the investigation of the Arcanum Region was needed. Bestia created a wall that separated the Great Forest and the Arcanum. And it was for a good reason. The Arcanum consisted of many races that could rival the Great Forest. 

The Elder Spirit finally gazed at the last ones. "The Occidental Region will face the Endless Grassland. The Endless Grassland is preparing for war, and they might be the first ones that would reach the Great Forest. Do you have any plans for this invasion?" The Elder Spirit calmly asked as Luna nodded and answered. 

"The Inquisition has already set up defense points within the Occidental Region. Our Leader wanted the Enemy Army to gather. It will be a face-to-face fight, and the Inquisition will temporarily enter the Endless Grassland and terminate the enemy leaders. Those are some of the plans. Unfortunately, most of it is classified." The Supremes thought about Luna's words. 

It seemed that the Inquisition had been planning for the war. Though, it made sense as they were the ones that fought against the Subjugation Group sent by the Orks. The Elder Spirit nodded in satisfaction. She was about to continue, but something strange happened. They felt some Strange energy above them. It made everyone furrow their eyebrows and turn their gaze upwards.

Meanwhile, within the Soul Core were the Spirit Lords. The time within the Soul Core was different than usual as it created a strange phenomenon. A minute has passed since Statera, Persia, and Ego disappeared within the Bright Portal. The Spirit Lords calmly stood and gazed upon the Portal. Ventus then spoke with a calm voice. 

"When would they come back?" It was a question as they couldn't stay here for days or months with a Spirit Nation to lead. Mayon, Aqua, and Igneus looked at him with aloof expressions. "I don't know, but I don't care," Mayon answered as Aqua sighed. Igneus smiled and spoke with pride. "They can take care of themselves. Babysitting them forever might make them completely dependant on us." 

What Igneus had said was the truth. Ventus nodded in understanding as Aqua did the same. Despite being stuck in their home for years, they were still doing their Job as Spirit Lords. So they couldn't say that it was a Vacation. Staring upon the Gate, Mayon muttered with a calm voice. 

"What do you think about Persia?" It was an interesting question for the Spirit Lords. The Spirit Lords started thinking about it as they answered one by one with different answers each. 

"An Intriguing Girl."

"I do want to continue talking with her."

"A Brave Girl that fought against the Astral Spirit Lord and survived."

"Persia, A Serpent from the Occidental Region. Despite the constant monitoring of the Dwarven and Elda, She still managed to slip through and evolve. There wasn't any lie when she said when she evolved within the Occidental Region. But, I still don't think that she completely is from the Occidental Region." Mayon spoke about her strange thoughts. 

"I understand your confusion. There is a possibility of her coming from the Outside. She probably entered the Occidental Region then evolved as a Demon Monster within the Occidental Region. Natural Evolution is hard, and it takes millenniums to complete. The existence of a large amount of evolved Demon Monsters within the Occidental Region is a miracle itself." Ventus nodded and explained. 

"Confusion will only cloud your mind. The only thing we can do is wait for them and let them speak for themselves." Aqua said with a calm voice as the Group of Spirit Lords nodded in agreement. They turned their gaze towards the Strange Gate. Statera, Persia, and Ego already disappeared, and it seemed that it would take a long time for them to come back.

That was what they thought before being enveloped by a Strange Bright Light. It was the same Light that brought them into the Soul Core. The Spirit Lords got confused as Mayon muttered. "Are we being ejected?" The Spirit Lords realized what was happening, though before they could escape from the ejection. The Light enveloped them and teleported them out of the Soul Core. 

Back to the Realm of Piksyon, A Dozen of Bright Light shone above the Heavens. The Inquisition Members, Spirits, Elves, Dwarves, and Beastfolk turned their gaze towards the Sky. Staring upon the Heavens, they saw a Giant Silhouette that resembled a Serpent. The Beastfolk, Elves, and Dwarves started turning on the alarms for a Surprise Attack. They prepared their Vehicles and Weapons against the Invading Army from the Heavens. 

Within the Heavens, The Spirit Lords and the Current Group of the Serpent gazed upon each other. Statera smiled and spoke towards them. "Nice to see you again, My Spirit Lords." Her seductive voice echoed as the Spirit Lords froze. 'Wasn't that too fast. It didn't even take that long. What the hell did they do beyond the Portal?' They were the questions that echoed within the Spirit Lords' minds. 

The Spirit Lords could also see a Gargantuan Serpent which only they could guess as Persia. They turned their head downwards and noticed a Gigantic Camp in the distance. It was the Motherships of the Three Nations surrounding Astral. A Dozen things had happened, and the Spirit Lords knew that their jobs would be a lot harder from now on. 

The Strange Meeting between a Lot of People began. With a Gargantual Serpent falling from the Heavens, One would wonder how such a meeting would end.
