The room turned silent. Evernight's expression darkened, her arms tightening around Celestara. Shirley and Diva exchanged worried glances, while Ren Wen instinctively reached for the hilt of his blade. The Mountain King's vast frame tensed like a drawn bow, and Jian Longchen's gaze narrowed, already calculating unseen battlefields. Shadow Reaper's form flickered at the edge of the room, restless with anticipation.
Dragon General Serynthia unfurled her wings slightly, scales glinting in the dim light, while Undead General Malthius knelt low, his hollow eyes burning faintly as if awaiting his master's command.
"Who are they, Lord Husband?" Diva asked, her voice laced with worry.
Igaris's gaze darkened, his tone heavy with truth. "The outer beings beyond our universe. The same ones who once brought chaos and mayhem across creation. They shattered the Akashic Records and destroyed everything we built. And now… they are coming again."
The room fell into a deathly silence.
