Darius Supreme-Novel

After the child was born, time continued to fly. 

Darius continued with his extremely questionable experiments, Gunner led the created armies throughout Fallon, and Xela and Luna spent their time bonding. 

The Elven Princess was teaching her new sister many things about their race as well as letting her experience the joys of life. The two elves were extremely tight-knit, seeming inseparable. 

Their bond could even make twin sisters feel inferior, but there was a slight problem. It was the fact that Luna was simply too sexually attractive due to her physical make-up and her unique Moon Elf aura. 

There was a sense of exotic yet wicked sensuality to her that made many male onlookers - and even some enterprising females - display interest. Xela was mostly pleasant to those who came to strike up a conversation at first, yet Luna was not interested in any of them. 

Once she noticed that Xela was slowly being overwhelmed by their repeated visits and 'enthusiasm', she immediately frowned and released her aura. All those who wanted to approach got blown back, shocked by the power of this delicate yet sensual elf. 

Xela sighed with relief and hurriedly took Luna away, the Moon Elf casually following the Royal Elf all over the place as she continued to take her about. 

Luna did not show it much, but she was really enjoying her time with this sister of hers. 

....... 

In the name of conquest, Gunner razed through different kingdoms one after the other. 

The first one was nearest to Fraterina and had coveted the beauties within for centuries, often engaging in skirmishes with them to test their might. 

They were the Derna Kingdom. Gunner had not spent much effort to reduce them to rubble, because they were ignorant and seemingly fearless. 

Hearing about Fraterina's fall, they had naturally assumed that Gunner must've exhausted his troops and was trying to consolidate, so they took it as their chance to finally 'dine' on high-grade beauties. 

They marched the entirety of their army, which numbered over 20 billion towards Fraterina, in hopes to surprise Gunner and force him out. Some commanders even intended to capture the general, allowing them to ransom him off to Safemoon. 

They, too, feared the city, yet only in its territory. No one respected or even looked at its own battle power at this time. While the rest of the world was reeling from the news the spy sent, most of the northern kingdoms of Fallon were extremely ignorant. 

Fraterina had been the most knowledgable Fallon kingdom about their activities because they were the ones who had actively been antagonizing Safemoon. They had even tried to contact their 'friends' from Gravitas for help, but it had been late. 

That connection had been severed when Gunner had blown up the Royal Castle, but Darius told him not to worry. 

It didn't matter who on Gravitas was the culprit, as long as he could enter that place for even one millisecond, they would be no different from a person bound and gagged, awaiting their fate. 

Back to Derna's army, they were shocked when they met an entourage of 120.4k troops in high-tech carriers and transports, all following behind one small tank in comparison. 

Since a week had passed since Fraterina fell, 17.2k troops had multiplied each day by the same amount, until they reached this number. Each of these men and women had 100 years of elite training and possessed the power of, at least, an Adept. 

Any single one of them was worth more than a million of those cannon fodder troops who had not even awakened. When Gunner saw the 20 billion troops, his eyebrows furrowed. 

Should he test these men by letting them fight head-on, or should he thin their numbers first? He and Darius had full confidence in the troops, but even a million ants could bite an elephant to death. 

20 billion was a huge number. In fact, Gunner wouldn't even be able to tell the number of human beings there were it not for Miranda's satellite doing the counting. 

What kind of number was that? If it was dollar bills stacked neatly, it would be enough to build a tower! If it was money in your possession, you wouldn't even be able to spend it, even if you latched onto the top 100 greediest gacha games. 

Just over 100,000 troops could not handle this amount, and Miranda buttressed this point. She estimated that they could kill about 4 billion with their current number, which was crazy in of itself, in 10 days, but they would begin to expire after that. 

Stamina was not infinite, and fatigue - both mental and physical - would eventually get to them. As such, Gunner had to thin out the horde the good old-fashioned way. 

He jumped out of his tank and sent an order to one of his captains in the group, someone who had displayed above-average results in the 100 years of training. 

"Deploy the ward." Gunner ordered the captain before turning to face the army opposite him. 

The soldiers then got busy placing some metallic nodes around the entire force, eventually activating a giant dome shield that seemed to be as thick as steel. 

Gunner exited this shield and gazed at the opposing army. They had stopped, and their commanders riding forth to parlay with him. Upon seeing him erect a shield, their eyes flashed with limitless disdain as they felt that Gunner was cowering before their martial might. 

Now, even more than before, they could not tell the power of the 100k troops because of the barrier separating them. Even sound and smells were blocked by it, otherwise, what had happened at Fraterina would just repeat itself. 

"Hold! You over there, Brute! Quickly explain what you're doing on Derna soil and then surrender yourself for whipping and caging!" One of the captains of that army arrogantly stated as he gazed at the half-giant. 

Gunner simply flicked a finger from where he stood, sending an air bullet that blew the head of the offending captain open as he rode over, his body slumping to the side, eventually falling off his horse.
