"The council asked that i inform you in case you know what they are and if they are a race we can treat as we want"
"If they can create impenetrable shields around themselves, don't you think they aren't a race to be messed with, I will suggest that you watch their actions for now, if they act in any manner that suggests otherwise, I would suggest you kill them and be done with it" the ancient being advised
"As you wish, My lord"
"Good, now go" the ancient voice said and the other party left
...….
While Kingsley slept, his territory descended into complete quietness as most of its inhabitants began exploring the new realms. They couldn't be blamed for this because anyone in their position would be interested however many of them stayed back because they couldn't leave their posts.
The ones that could leave their posts however, could be seen running all around the realms happily as they faced the dangers and opportunities it may bring. None of them really expected anything epic from the realms considering that they were told explicitly that they were built to simply house them in a place more suited for their species.
"My Lord" A demon Goblin called out while saluting
"What is it" Viktor answered as he turned towards the Demon Goblin
"My Lord, the creatures have been spotted again but this time, they seem to be headed this way in carriages and guards" The Demon Goblin reported
"How many minutes or hours do we have before they can get here?" Viktor asked as he stood up from his seat
"Days Sir, look out says they will meet with them in a day's time"
"Thats good then, I want as much eyes and ears on them, keep you distance and if possible, figure out their aim for coming here" Viktor ordered
"As you wish"
"Good, what did Athena say about this"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Lady Athena says you are more suited to handle this one"
"Okay then, go do as you were asked" Viktor said as the Demon Goblin saluted and left.
Viktor then sat down and remained in his seat which unlike one would expect, wasn't actually in the realm created for him. He was sitting in the castle directly outside Kingsley room watching the place together with the Thrones. He had sent the others home simply because there was no use to all of them waiting with him for his majesty to wake up.
He would simply call them when his master wakes up, it was better that way and will help to get the various races settled quickly into the realms. He would say that he was here because he was worried about his master but he already knew that the man was out of danger, Hestia already said the symptoms she once felt were gone and His majesty was merely sleeping now.
So there really was nothing for him to worry about but he remained here simply because he didn't trust the Thrones. He knew they could be trusted and were probably the best guards in the universe but after what had happened earlier, he felt it was necessary.

[Guys I just figured it out!!] a lord posted
[Figured what out… I don't think we were trying to solve any mystery or puzzle initially]
[No I mean I finally figured out how to transfer my mana, I've been trying to figure how to control it for like an entire day now]
[Then that's good for you, did you come across some magic teacher or spell book or something, that you're this excited to learn how to control your mana]
[What? no, I just want to activate the Automaton, Lord [Kingsley] sent to me, this thing is pretty cool]
[Wait, you were part of the holy/light element Lords, what did he give, you can you send a picture]
[Here] The lord replied with an image of one of the Automatons attached
[Shit, that looks awesome… how powerful is it, how about the stats]
[Bruv… you have no idea; this thing has a physique of 999 just at level 1 and it seems to be a master of combat... I think... at least that's what it says in the skill section] The lord said in clear excitement
[Stand aside peasants, your queen is here]
[Who is this now?]
[See my mini army] the new lord posted as they shared the image of multiple Automatons lined up
[Holy Fuck…. what did you trade to get these?]
[S-rank holy troops… yes, I know I'm awesome] The Lord replied
[Wait that means he attended to all the lords that DM'ed him]
[I think so, the guy seems like a too nice guy, you know he was donating food at some point]
[Yeah, I received one of those, I didn't get to eat it but it did save my life]
[Full story please]
[Well, you can't just share that alone and go, give us the full story, what happened between you and the food given]
[Okay… so you know it was during the Event week, i was still defending against the wave and there was this large creature, a desert scorpion that no matter what i or my men did, just wouldn't die but then the meat came and for some reason, I brought it out of my inventory just in time for the scorpion to try to sting me, the meat took the poison inside of me and we used the poisoned meat to kill it]
[Wait, your territory is in the desert… how are you even alive now]
[My territory was formed in an Oasis and my troops have the ability to detect water, its apparently a common thing in the desert]
[Well at least you're lucky, you're on dry land, my territory is in the ocean, I'm currently sitting on a rock because the system didn't give me the ability to breathe underwater]
[Then how did you survive the event]
[My troops are Mermen… and they are s-ranked] The lord replied as the other lords could clearly feel his pride in his troops even from the chat
[Guys, it has been confirmed, lord [Kingsley] likely answered every one who gave him a holy/light-based troop… that means there are at least 100 people out there with access to SSS-ranked troops that they gained yesterday]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Doesn't that mean that lord [Kingsley] has access to more than 100 SS-ranked troops… why does our region keep on getting bleaker and bleaker]
[I did tell you guys before, simply surrender and get to live your life inside a beautiful castle]
[Prove it, I want to see a video of you inside a castle, move around show us the entirety of the castle]
[Is that even possible, I don't think the system has that type of function]
[I don't know but this thing is almost identical to Whatasapp from back home]
[Press and hold the camera icon, it will turn to video]
[Okay then, expect it in the next 2 minutes]
[Come to think of it, why is lord [Kingsley] the only one with governors, so none of you surrendered to another Lord… there has to at least be a lord here that had access to SS-SSS rank troops from the very beginning]
[OH!... there was that lord [Li Ye], that was selling food at a ridiculously high price during the first week]
[Really, I don't think I noticed any such activity… I know that Lord [Kingsley] donated and also sold his food but most times it was for either a handful of sand or water or a small piece of stone for a unit of food]
[Yeah, I think Lord [Kingsley] began selling his food after he saw that lord doing his and also you didn't notice it because people stopped by his food almost immediately Lord [Kingsley] began selling his]
[Damn!... I want to assume that he also has governors now right]
[Probably]
[Considering how the event was, then he probably has but i doubt he will have as much as Lord [Kingsley], that guy's benefits are on another level]
[Here it is... proof] The governor returned with a video of his castle with him in the shot
The video seemed as professional as things could be despite the fact that none of them had access to any modern equipment. In the video, they could see the Lord in question who turned out to be a young lady that seemed to be of Middle Eastern descent and in the video, she excitedly showed all the amenities that came with her castle.
From the fact that she had electricity to her working refrigerator which was filled with familiar food stuffs and then the wall with its automatic weaponry and finally the soldiers who stood guard all around the territory. The Lords who watched the video couldn't believe their eyes, first was electricity which should be impossible in such a world unless they somehow figured out a way to create it with magic.
[Where did you get so many guards from, its only being three weeks, the most you should have is 30 and considering the event and attacks even after it, you should have give or take 20]
[How do you even have electricity]
[The Demon Goblins were given by Lord [Kingsley], 50 of them and they are also SSS-ranked so… so you can choose now or die later on when he begins to march against the world. I heard the governors saying that he needed the holy/light troops because there were Undead blocking his match]
