True Martial Home

What appeared before them was Krishna.

A being standing on the axis of [Order]!

At the same time, he was the ancient deity who had made a contract with Emperor Gong Sun Xuanwen.

Dokgo Yulong and Zhuge Sa instantly grasped Krishna’s presence because he was also a close friend of the Asura from the Eight Parts of the Divine. Their brains concluded that Krishna was the most likely variable to intervene in the current situation, and Dokgo Yulong deduced during the conversation with the Eight Parts of the Divine that the ‘mysterious being’ had a connection to Brahmanism. Thus, Dokgo Yulong hurried straight to Agra, determined to unmask the shadowy figure of Krishna from Brahmanism without delay.

Krishna, labeled a hypocrite, momentarily fell silent before speaking.

“Ah, I see. Now that the center, Baek Woong, has vanished, you have become unrestrained in your slaughter and chaos.”

[Huh… Nothing is more disgusting than hypocrisy overshadowing the heavens.]

“Do you really understand why I’m labeled a hypocrite, Master of the White Lotus Sect?”

A gleam flowed from the eyes of the Master of the White Lotus Sect.

[If you declare yourself a guardian of order, you should have remained an observer from beginning to end. Yet, you alone posture in front of us, debating good and evil, obstructing our path. Do we appear to be such fools that we can’t discern between hypocrisy and wickedness within that disharmony?]

“…”

[What is sincerity? Ultimately, are you also an [Old Ruler] aiming to gain the colossal power of transcendence at the end?]

The Master of the White Lotus Sect made a reply to Krishna’s words.

“I am a solitary observer of the expansive universe. Life and death are fates of the universe, and I do not cling to them. However, I cannot ignore your actions that accelerate destruction.”

[Accelerate? Why don’t you explain how you do so?]

“Your goal of world conquest… Once you achieve that goal, your civilization and culture will blanket this world, and during the final moments, every human will write and speak in a single tongue. Have you ever considered what that means, Master of the White Lotus Sect?”

[…….]

As the Master of the White Lotus Sect realized Krishna’s implications and fell silent, Zhuge Sa jeered from the side.

“Chinese characters were created by Chi You. Those life forms influenced by Chinese characters and born of the power of the Eight Trigrams will all be manipulated by Chi You’s will, becoming mere puppets, right?”

“You know well. No need for further explanation….”

Indeed.

Every living being in the Central Plains and all those belonging to the realm of Chinese character civilization would be governed by the will and belief system established by Emperor Chi You! Once Emperor Chi You could control civilization, the tragedies that would unfold were well-known from the past. All of humanity would be forced to evolve into the Chi You race, facing a different form of destruction.

Krishna remarked.

“You are effectively doing what Chi You has been trying to set in motion, continuously using the Eight Parts of the Divine. You knowingly attempt world conquest through the Chinese? ”

“Hehe.”

Zhuge Sa let out an eerie laugh, and a calm Dokgo Yulong stepped forward to speak.

“Krishna, are you siding with the Twelve Joules?”

“Not at all. But I might join forces later.”

Krishna gazed quietly at Dokgo Yulong.

“So, release the divine technique to punish the soul of the liar. After all, that spell won’t work on me.”

Swoosh!

Having been preparing the trap of deceit, Dokgo Yulong wiped the power of the spell from his hands.

“If our Great Bear Empire stops advancing against the Mughal Empire, will you cease meetings with the Eight Parts of the Divine?”

“I have no such intention. I will keep you all in check until the end.”

“How very candid. Do you see us as thorns in your side?”

“That’s not quite the expression. I’m merely doing what needs to be done… .”

A bittersweet look passed over Krishna’s face. Then Zhuge Sa grinned.

“Well, it is as it is. Then we would like to collect some ‘debts’ from Baek Woong that you lost.”

“You have no right to hear the clues I promised to inform Baek Woong.”

“Well~ Isn’t that for you to decide? We have plenty of qualifications. Sharing Baek Woong’s will and protecting the Great Bear Empire until his return is our mission. Isn’t using his disappearance as an excuse to weasel out of debts a breach of contract?”

“…….”

“The promises of divine beings are the utmost constraint that binds their very existence. You owe a price. Moreover, Baek Woong has already granted your request to save the Arasa Empire and drive out the Eight Parts of the Divine. Yet, the traitor here is you.”

Krishna looked at Zhuge Sa and then stated.

“Fine. I’ll give you a clue… In the end, all masks shall be unveiled at the time of doom.”

At that moment, everyone reacted with surprise.

It was painfully obvious that a single clue carried tremendous significance.

“Is it a prophecy?”

“Yes. This may hold little meaning for mortals, but it’s the greatest clue I can give to Baek Woong. Originally, I intended to convey it directly to him, along with a bit of help….”

“Oh….”

“What an amusing matter. I’ve been cautious of the gaze of the Evil God all this time, yet Baek Woong is the one capable of removing such a deity.”

“May I ask one more question?”

Zhuge Sa observed Krishna with serpent-like eyes and finally opened his mouth.

“You do know that Chi You has already perished, right?”

“…….”

For the first time, Krishna’s expression faltered. He was taken aback by a question he hadn’t anticipated. Then he smiled softly and turned away.

“You are not easy to underestimate. We’ll meet again.”

Whoosh!!

Krishna vanished from the spot.

The Dharma Guardian of the Su Shin Sect, Dokgo Jun, exhaled softly.

[I couldn’t even dare to confront his presence. He looks human, yet he is truly a god, isn’t he?]

Dokgo Jun had fought numerous experts, demon beasts, and sorcerers while representing the Southern Barbarians and Tianzhu. In the process, he realized the formidable power of the Heavenly Spirit Pill, coupled with his own confidence due to an unbeaten record.

However, just moments ago, with Krishna right in front of him, he felt no urge to attack. Despite appearing powerless, his gut instinct screamed that it would be absurd to engage him. Such an experience was entirely new for Dokgo Jun.

[That’s right, Dokgo Jun. Had we fought here, while we could have defeated that avatar, we would’ve faced extensive damage ourselves.]

Upon hearing the words of the Sect Leader, Dokgo Yulong countered.

“Not much damage, I’d wager.”

[Why is that?]

“I’ve gathered intel in the shadowy world. That Krishna isn’t a combat avatar. He may possess outstanding battle prowess, but… I hear there’s a separate battle avatar named Arjuna. Arjuna is powerful enough to be worshipped as a fighting god here in Tianzhu.”

[Hmm. I hadn’t heard of that.]

“Someone of Krishna’s caliber might be taken down by us. The fact that he approached us as Krishna, without Sending out the battle avatar Arjuna, indicates he’s prepared for a lengthy conflict….”

[Correct. He would likely weaken us using the Eight Parts of the Divine before deploying the battle avatar to genuinely annihilate us.]

“…Sect Leader.”

When Dokgo Yulong glanced at the Master of the White Lotus Sect, the latter seemed to have caught on to something and instructed the Dharma Guardians.

[The battle for today is concluded. The Dharma Guardians should return to Agra first.]

“Understood.”

Whoosh!

Once the Dharma Guardians had disappeared, Dokgo Yulong finally spoke.

“I can really feel Baek Woong’s absence today. Who knew I’d feel this perplexed?”

[Agreed.]

During this exchange, Zhuge Sa sneered.

“Right? It’s so obvious that guy is spouting nonsense, yet you still can’t rage like Baek Woong and flail around without a care. It’s funny how, when he was around, I didn’t realize how extraordinary being a reborn one could be.”

[So you noticed.]

“Of course.”

Crunch!

Zhuge Sa bit into an apple from Tianzhu.

“The Eight Parts of the Divine is merely an excuse. He knows that he’s merely a being who shares the divine spirit and flesh of the Eight Parts of the Divine. In reality, we can consider Krishna the true leader of this new faction.”

[…Although we know his hypocrisy, we couldn’t directly confront or point it out.]

“Exactly. We’re not reborn. If we irritate that guy, he might spring out his combat avatar right away, or, feeling pricked by our implications, he’ll become overly cautious… Either way, it’s not a good scenario for us mortals, who only get a single opportunity.”

Dokgo Yulong went on.

“Evil. Now that facing Krishna is a foregone conclusion, how much thought do you have for tackling a divine being of that caliber?”

“Hmm, I’m not sure. When Baek Woong was around, maybe around twenty ideas? But ultimately, we also need to consider the moves of the shadowy figure behind Krishna. Honestly, we should look for someone that can replace the Evil God.”

“It’s a tough problem.”

“Agreed.”

The trio could only ponder.

The intentions of the enemy were obvious, yet their disparity in ranks made it challenging to counterattack!

Even Behemoth, a former servant of the Ancient God, was likely at an upper level of the sacred order, akin to the Three Sovereigns. If the opponent were serious, even knowing their intentions wouldn’t change the outcome.

‘If only Baek Woong were here…’

Baek Woong may not have been the sharpest tool in the shed, but he could use his past life advantages to bring countless divine beings into play or devise strange schemes to escape situations. Though clumsy in action, that weakness was more than compensated for by his remarkable strengths when facing transcendent beings. But with Baek Woong gone now, the capable heroes left behind may have more freedom of action, yet overcoming the remarkable gap in power against overwhelming opponents was harder now.

The Sect Leader spoke.

[By the way, I’m concerned about the influence of Chinese characters that Krishna mentioned. Do you know much about it?]

“Only Chi You, the contracting party, can manipulate or arbitrarily evolve humans using Chinese characters. Now that Chi You has been obliterated by Tianan Secret, it’s meaningless to even discuss it. Are you asking again for no reason?”

The reason Zhuge Sa had scoffed at Krishna’s words was precisely this. As someone proficient in sorcery, he understood that since Chi You had vanished simultaneously with Baek Woong’s reincarnation, discussing the influence of Chinese characters was redundant.

[I know that too. However, even if the contracting party has vanished, the characters themselves are powerful relics of divine magic. I want to know if we can wield the power of those commands.]

“Oh….”

Zhuge Sa looked at the Sect Leader in surprise. It was an idea he hadn’t anticipated. Then, quietly listening, Dokgo Yulong spoke.

“We can’t. They are just outcomes. If such a thing were possible, the history of the Central Plains would have long succumbed to demonic arts. Today’s Chinese characters are merely pictographs.”

[So it is.]

“The critical thing is not the characters themselves, but rather what the [First Character] is.”

[The First Character…. Baek Woong gathered numerous clues, yet fundamentally grasped none of it. The weaknesses and leash of Chi You and the Eight Parts of the Divine….]

“In truth, it’s the supremely elevated language at the peak of all characters. I suspect the Emperor considered this to control Chi You, but there’s likely some different secret behind it.”

[A different secret?]

“According to the information Baek Woong received from the prophet, it was directly mentioned by the Emperor as [the characters that prove our promise]. In other words, it becomes important to define the range of who the Emperor meant by ‘we.'”

[……]

“Perhaps the subject of the contract of language isn’t a singular entity. Moreover, if the Three Sovereigns did not attempt to control Chi You with the [First Character] after he gained strength surpassing the [Great Cycle], it suggests there are limits to the range of shared powers.”

[I think Krishna might be related to this matter. I wish I had pressed him earlier.]

“If I had brought this up, it wouldn’t be information that a mortal could handle, and Krishna would’ve guarded himself against us even more fiercely. Such an action would be reckless.”

Responding to that, Dokgo Yulong suggested.

“From now on, we should think realistically about how to confront the Eight Parts of the Divine. Master of the White Lotus Sect, will you halt the world conquest of the Great Bear Empire?”

In response to Dokgo Yulong’s question, the Master of the White Lotus Sect replied as if it weren’t even worth considering.

[Krishna indicated that regardless of whether we cease our advance, he will continue to keep us in check. Therefore, there’s no reason not to rack up power by conquering foreign lands.]

“However, it’s true we currently lack the means to confront the Eight Parts of the Divine. Simply increasing our territory within the empire would be a suboptimal approach.”

[Is there a way to check the Eight Parts of the Divine while simultaneously strengthening the Great Bear Empire?]

“…….”

Dokgo Yulong pondered and finally responded.

“We must surely acquire the remaining Seven Luminaries. If a high-level master of the Absolute Realm or you were to wield the Seven Luminaries, we could adequately resist the Eight Parts of the Divine.”

[Now that Baek Woong is missing… so we can only acquire the Fire Spirit and Earth Spirit.]

“Correct. It would be good if the Fire Spirit could break through barriers, but if not, there’s no choice but to wait until the next solar eclipse. As for the Earth Spirit, we should be able to negotiate well with Empress Wu Zetian.”

[But even that will be insufficient to tackle a demon king-level group. Do you have any alternative plans?]

“Of course. The status quo won’t allow us to confront the Eight Parts of the Divine. If they swarm together like in the battle of the World Tree from the past, we’d be wiped out. However….”

Dokgo Yulong smiled coldly.

“The Eight Parts of the Divine has a fatal weakness. I’ll be sure to exploit it.”

He had a plan.

Originally – a clear strategy he intended to execute to keep the Eight Parts of the Divine in check, had Baek Woong not an absence.

They annihilated Brahmanism and returned to the Great Bear Empire. For years, the Great Bear Empire focused on extending its influence across the entire Tianzhu continent, solidifying its ruling power and working to form [one empire].

Three years later.

Dokgo Seong, Master of the Shadowless Sword, and the Sword Demon reached the Absolute Realm.

While it seemed slow compared to when Baek Woong was around, the very fact they could artificially reach the Absolute Realm was a remarkable achievement. They were inherently talented, gaining insights through countless battles alongside the growth of the Great Bear Empire.

However, the Bright Dragon had for some time now completely retreated into Wudang Mountain for closed training, and the Master of Zen also hadn’t left Shaolin Temple. While they initially refined the Seven Great Techniques and martial arts left behind by Baek Woong, it seemed they realized something midway and declared their intent to engage in closed training separately.

Also, Wei Zhi-hun, the former Master of the Teng Yu Alliance, had reached the ultimate peak of extreme experts, and Dongyoung, the Great Swordmaster, had attained a similar level. If they continued to push through, there was a high likelihood they would reach the Absolute Realm within ten years.

Zhuge Sa was sitting across from Mangnyang in the Imperial Palace, chuckling.

“…So, we can cultivate the Absolute Realm thanks to the help of the reborn one! Hehe.”

“While that’s not quite the case. It’s been about nine years since Baek Woong disappeared… It’s quite massive to only have three reach the Absolute Realm despite relying on Baek Woong’s assistance.”

“More will surely emerge as Absolute Realm experts. Isn’t that right? Especially Sagong Lin and Tang San have long been aiming for the Absolute Realm.”

“The assistance of a reborn individual is an overwhelming fortune. Baek Woong learned dozens of the arts of the martial world’s peerless experts and relayed them. Moreover, those who gleaned the teachings indirectly are geniuses who rank among the best in the martial realm. It’s not surprising.”

Continuing from that, Mangnyang added.

“However, even if we have many masters reaching the Absolute Realm, I don’t know how we would withstand the real body of the Eight Parts of the Divine….”

“To be brutally honest, mere martial artists cannot stand against a demon king level. If faced head-on, it’s feasible, but when they start utilizing the Power of Chaos, there’s simply no answer. No matter how many we have in the Absolute Realm, once entangled in the powers, we have no strategy except mutual destruction. You’re here to deliberate over that tactic, aren’t you?”

“That’s correct.”

Mangnyang nodded.

“The issue is that the martial artists are bare-handed. In martial realm battles, superior evasion techniques and Qi protection might suffice, but exposed against overwhelming chaos, it’s akin to being naked. Hence, I believe we need equipment to bolster our ranks. After all, humans ultimately become stronger with the use of tools.”

Dokgo Yulong’s interest was piqued.

“…That would be relating to defensive capacity, I see. Solid armor suitable against the Eight Parts of the Divine doesn’t exist on this Earth. Even if we forge armor from diamonds, it would amount to nothing. What are you thinking?”

“As you might have guessed, I’m referring to treasures.”

“These treasures are extreme artifacts handled only by top celestial beings, right? Given how Baek Woong treated them like neighborhood toys, we can’t do so ourselves.”

“Yes, I’m aware. Treasures can only be wielded by those ranking superior among immortals… But humans can also create artifacts.”

With a swift motion, Mangnyang produced a bizarre, five-colored glowing stone from his possession and placed it on the table. Upon seeing it, Zhuge Sa raised his eyebrows.

“Indeed, our Zhuge Clan’s ancestor Zhuge Mu-hu did create a man-made artifact, but what’s that stone?”

“It’s called the Five-color Ramie Stone. A special stone that can only be found in the deepest valleys of the Celestial Realm. Additionally, it’s one of the most common materials used to create treasures in the heavens.”

“Oh…. So, you wanted to learn the Corpse Dissolution Technique from the Heavenly Mysterious Woman, and you’ve even succeeded in charming her. You plan to obtain the Five-color Ramie Stone for a man-made treasure, right?”

“…….”

Mangnyang gave a wry smile.

“Yes. It’s not enough for someone like Zhuge Mu-hu, who has reached the realm of Great Immortal, to spend arduous effort to create a single man-made treasure. We need to acquire as many raw materials for treasures from the Celestial Realm before it completely withdraws from this world, allowing us to produce thoroughly here.”

“That’s a great idea. In that case, most man-made treasures would likely take the form of armor.”

“While we won’t be able to withstand the Eight Parts of the Divine completely, at least we can avoid running headfirst into a monster with bare skin. And as someone in the Absolute Realm, they could effectively utilize that defensive benefit using the Intent Heavenly Pill.”

“Got it, I understand the situation now. So, the reason you called me here today isn’t to boast about your achievements?”

In response to Zhuge Sa’s inquiry, Mangnyang clasped his hands.

“…Ultimately, you’re intending to topple Simon Magus soon. Is there any assistance I can provide?”

“Oh.”

“I’ll soon embark on practicing Corpse Dissolution Technique and reestablishing the Heavenly Altar. If I miss this timing, I can’t help you at all.”

“Ku ku… ku ku ku…”

Zhuge Sa grinned darkly. As expected, Mangnyang, unlike Baek Woong, had a degree of foresight regarding his intentions. Despite never sharing his thoughts with anyone else, only the humans of the Zhuge Clan could read this much.

“Well, thanks for presciently suggesting that. Just so you know… I’m planning to create Qin. It’s necessary.”

“…I see. You’ll be coordinating with Dokgo Yulong then.”

“Yes. If there’s something needed, I would have mentioned it already. Just do your part.”

“Understood.”

Whoosh!

Mangnyang exchanged a few more words before using spatial techniques to vanish. Witnessing this, Zhuge Sa murmured.

“Even now, with the help of Corpse Dissolution Techniques, he has reached the level of an immortal. Time seems to have flown quickly, nearly ten years have passed….”

The Eight Parts of the Divine haven’t attacked yet. It’s likely that due to Krishna’s crafty maneuvering, they’re plotting something beneath the surface. No one knew when the opponent would commence their assault, but before then, they had no choice but to strengthen themselves as much as possible.

Crack!

Zhuge Sa suddenly realized his hand had transformed into that of a demon beast. He gazed at the monstrous hand without expression before uttering a charm of landlord doctrines, and his hand reverted back to normal. He pondered.

‘No. If just an advanced spell has such a backlash, I won’t be able to defeat Simon Magus by any means.’

The aftereffects of the powerful spell he cast when he toppled the Arasa Kingdom, defeating Brahmanism’s elites, still lingered. Magic, unlike techniques, is unstable and notoriously dangerous; even Zhuge Sa, being one of the top sorcerers, would be exposed to backlash when employing formidable magic.

Zhuge Sa was well aware of the gap between himself and Simon Magus. The greatest dark sorcerer to have ever succeeded in offering to Outer Gods and reach the realm of demon king, Simon Magus, had almost no weaknesses that Zhuge Sa could exploit. Even Zhuge Sa’s own technique, the Soul Exchange Technique, originated from Simon Magus and was, in fact, more potent. If Zhuge Sa couldn’t surpass Simon Magus, soon he would likely have to offer his soul and be reincarnated as a demon. That day was approaching quickly; Zhuge Sa felt a twinge of anxiety.

How could he defeat a demon king-level existence linked with the Outer God, [Mountain Goat]?

From what he understood, even the Soul Exchange Technique would likely fall short when facing the original.

‘…Mastering an average Grimoire would probably not bridge the gap in strength.’

Soon, Zhuge Sa sighed and chuckled.

“Looks like I’ve got no choice but to die first.”

And five years later – Mangnyang had withdrawn from the earthly realm, completely disappearing from the scene. As the task of severing the connection between the Celestial and real worlds was set on course, he focused all efforts on assisting the Heavenly Mysterious Woman. Meanwhile, he gathered several materials from the Celestial realm to stockpile raw materials for treasures.

Simultaneously, Dokgo Uncheon, the second emperor of the Great Bear Empire, issued a command.

[We will strike the West. We shall annihilate them.]

“Long live Your Majesty!”

Rumble…

The ominous clouds of war loomed. The Great Bear Empire mobilized soldiers and materials across all territories, deploying them to the border with the Kazakhstani state at the forefront of the Western Kingdoms via the Transference Gate. In the Western regions of the Central Plains were the Safavid Empire and the Ottoman Empire. Those nations began watching the movements of the Great Bear Empire with tension but soon lost all hope upon hearing the news.

[The West is now ours.]

Baek Woong, surveying the lined-up Great Bear Empire troops at the border, raised his hands high from atop his horse.

[With a 2 million strong army, we shall sweep them all away!]

Whoa—

2 million troops!

That was the largest military force in history, with the figure of 2 million being notably accurate, far from the exaggerations of the past. Moreover, with a high proportion of combat soldiers, it was the biggest force ever mobilized in the history of the Central Plains. This massive army could easily secure economic stability in the conquered lands of the Southern Barbarians and entire Tianzhu continent and train combat soldiers with ease.

Even a troop of just 100,000 would have had whole nations betting their fortunes to move such a massive force; thus, gathering 20 times that number shook the heavens. The neighboring Kazakh nation initially thought of resistance, but just a day into the war, their most fortified citadel crumbled.

Boom!

Bang!!

Moreover, within the 2 million army were the most advanced artillery on earth, Man Gwangpo and Gui Luepo. In addition, rifles were standard issue, with a long range. Waging a war against them was simply futile in terms of quality and quantity of arms.

Not even three months had passed since the Great Bear Empire declared war and surged westward – in that time, Kazakhstan fell, followed by the Safavid Empire. The Ottoman Empire, too, found itself ceaselessly invaded until their capital was finally under siege. Eventually, the emperor of the Ottoman Empire surrendered, and upon taking it over, the Great Bear Empire matched borders with the Kingdoms of the West.

Rumble….

[At last…. It’s time to liberate the kingdoms of the West, dominated by sorcery.]

The Master of the White Lotus Sect, feeling emotional, murmured. At that moment, a messenger burst into the tent.

“Your Majesty, we have a grave situation!”

[What is it?]

“The Arasa Empire has mobilized an army of 400,000 to invade the northern borders of the Central Plains.”

[…….]

The Master of the White Lotus Sect uttered in disbelief.

[Pathetic humans… Do they think they can ransack an empty house while the Southern Barbarians are out to vanquish? Leave that to Dokgo Yulong.]

The advisors present cautioned him.

“The troop stationed at the northern border is merely around 100,000. The Imperial Guards defending the capital are down to just 50,000. The Arasa Empire boasts both troop and artillery advancements; we must retreat swiftly….”

[Ha ha…. Relay my words to the lord of Luoyang, Dokgo Yulong. He is to annihilate the emperor of Arasa and their entire clan. That should be quite doable.]

“…Understood!”

[This is a chance to eliminate Arasa as well.]

The messenger returned beyond the Transference Gate.

Following the Master of the White Lotus Sect’s instructions, Dokgo Yulong set off with Zhuge Bu, leading the native army to easily wipe out 400,000 Arasa troops with a minimal loss using just 100,000 men. Additionally, Dokgo Yulong personally beheaded the regent and emperor of Arasa, displaying their heads in the marketplace.

Clop clop…

Dokgo Yulong strolled through the ruins of the Arasa Empire’s palace, pausing as he approached a particular spot. He found the entrance to the [Library] and muttered.

“It seems I’ve got to take a gamble.”

He stepped inside to meet the prophet.

While the war with Arasa unfolded, the Master of the White Lotus Sect joined the first war against the Western Kingdoms. Their first adversary was none other than the Holy Roman Empire, the largest empire of the West.

Upon seeing what emerged from the Holy Roman Empire, the Master of the White Lotus Sect frowned.

[What is that…?]

Winged humans wielding spears and swords adorned with bright, glowing feathers.

Over 50,000 of these winged beings were gathered, an evident anomaly that defied the common understanding of humanity.

Unlike the Master of the White Lotus Sect, Zhuge Sa burst into laughter upon sighting the beings.

“Those are angels from Kabbalah. They’ve teamed up with [Evil Ones].”

[Angels?]

“Yes. At last, the history of this world has begun to step beyond the bounds of humanity….”

As Zhuge Sa’s words trailed off, the angelic soldiers collided with the grand army of the Great Bear Empire.

Thus began the first battle against non-humans in history.
