(10 Days before Vytal Festival Grimm incursion at Vale, after chapter 8)
I sat in my 'office' in my newly built fort, on Thalius II. Apparently the Planetary Governor... what was his name? Bah! I won't remember, well he wanted to give me a present and built me a fort, entirely manned by Honor Guard. It also had a throne room, which I had turned into a office. I requested the 5 Honor Guard that acompanied me to Remnant to become my Personal Guard, I also gave them hardlight guns, not really sure if that was a good idea.
(Flashback)
"So you guys want new guns?" I looked towards my Guard, they usually hung around me but they relaxed most of the time with me. Before the Squad Leader could do anything the Machinegunner, Marksman, and Grenadier were immediately in my face asking various questions. I put up a hand signalling them to stop as I giggled, "I will be outfitting all of you with hardlight weaponry." The Leader just shook his head as the others, started getting giggly at the prospect of glowing, badass, guns.
I set to work and made the Machinegunner his guns first. His main gun was actually a Splinter Cannon (Halo 5), modified to have infinate ammo, a firerate fit for a Machinegun, and non-explosive rounds. However after awhile it had to cool down. I handed him a boltshot with his hardlight Machinegun, and he laughed maniaclly setting off towards the firing range after I told him it disintegrated things. I just shook my head and giggled again. I made the Marksmen a Binary Rifle, and Lightrifle, both had infinate ammo but a cooldown. I made the grenadier a Splinter Cannon but, it was like a Rifle, and had 3 consecutive shots before a cooldown was needed, I also handed him a boltshot. The Grenadier and Marksmen exchanged a look through their helmets and took off running towards the firing range. I sighed and gave the Medic and Squad Leader, a Lightrifle and Suppressor each. They just shook their heads and walked towards the range.
(Flashback End)
You know for Skils, I actually was packing. I gained 'Mana Manipulation' after intense manipulation and study of my Mana, and 'Fireball' after shaping my Mana into a ball and throwing it. I also gained 6 STR and 8 AGI from daily runs, after hitting the range with my DMR, Magnum, and Assault Rifle, I was able to get 'Handgun Mastery' and 'Rifle Mastery', strangely enough though after shooting all of the guns again I gained 'Marksmenship'. I was supprised with the last one but expected the others.
I also had quite a few projects, I was trying to automate ground and ariel unit production with a factory that integrated The Gamer, so we didn't have to use materiels to make anything military related. I was also creating AI Mantis's, they responded to orders and had the common sense to protect and attack at the right times on the battlefield. Honestly, without The Gamer I would be half dead from sleep depravation, with the amount of work I do on perfecting everything I am actually suprised no one has stepped up to help.

I stared at 'Hero's Stomach'. What. The. Fuck. That is OP as fuck! Damn! I need to eat all the food... well a good bit anyway. Was that why I got addicted to that strange fruit? Earlier I found a genetically made plant that tasted like strawberries, as soon as I tasted one I bought like 100 and planted half of them in my own garden. But was I addicted because I really, really liked them, or was it because of my Skill that if I ate enough I could basically make myself invincable? You know what, best not to know. Well time for my incursion into another world!
But where to go to? I mean the Throne of Glass series sounds like the beat place to start, especially because it has magic, and hasn't hit the industrial age yet. I called all of my personal Guard into the "office" to ask them to come with me.
I looked to them where they were standing ramrod straight ready for orders, "Ready to head to another world?" All of them nodded except for the Grenadier.
"Are we going to be able to blow shit up?" As Grenadier said this the rest of them either groaned or shook their heads. I just nodded and he pumped his fists in excitement.
"Okay now all I need to tell you now is..." So I explained to them what was happening in the world and when/where we were going to. I nodded, "Got that?" They all nodded and looked ready to shoot people. I opened a portal to the Throne of Glass series, when Aelin was getting captured by Maeve. I nearly cried at that scene, but now... now I can fuck Maeve up, maybe even disable her so I can torture her later. Well, Maeve is basically a demon inside the local Elf species, so... maybe I would be doing a justice. Even if I am killing a large nation's leader.
All of us jumped through the portal.
(Line Break)
As soon as we got through the portal I saw Maeve telling a guy to whip Aelin, and two groups of ships attacking each other. I told the Guard to attack the ships with Maeve's banner while I delt with the Queen. I walked up to Maeve stood behind her a good 10 Meters away. I saw Elide and Lorcan there too. Cairn, a Fae male, was getting ready for his second round of lashings on Aelin when I intervened.
"You know Maeve... your plan was ingenious, truly amazing. But did you expect a wild card to come and kill you?" I smiled, a bitter thing, and all eyes turned to me.
Maeve eyes narrowed at me, "What do you mean child?" Clearly her anger at my interuption had made her start seething, especially having a "child" like me interupting her victory moment
I simply narrowed my gaze at her and snapped my fingers, summoning 'Spear of Judgement' from nowhere, and sticking it in Cairn's heart. "I am sorry, I must be hearing things. What did you call me? I am 22 I'll have you know." I let the edge of my words show.
Maeve turned to see Cairn with a golden spear of light through his heart. I looked at the others, they were wide eyed and letting their suprise get the best of them. Maeve turned back to me with astonishment in her eyes, I rolled my eyes at her and told my spear to chop off her legs. She went down not expecting it, I snorted, "Queen Maeve, brought down by the Empress of Thalius, truly touching. For really a monster, just killed a less evil monster." I summoned Mana Strings to start cutting into her skin. I looked over at the others astonishment and fear on their faces, I mouthed the words,'This will only take a minute.' and set to work, Maeve's screams were ridiculous and anti-climactic as she died, fast and easy. Pathetic, even my Mana String chopped through her feeble shields. I observed her dead body.

I raised a brow and used 'Mana Manipulation' to take the residual energies, and apply them to myself. Suprisingly, it worked! I gained 20 Stat points and replenished my Mana. I looked over at the others and they were talking to each other and glancing at me, while Lorcan had a dagger to his throat by Elide. I snorted and went up to them skipping with a smile. "So... how's it goin'"
They all looked startled still and frightened of me, until Aelin spoke up. "We need to get back to the ships and see if we lost or not." She started slowly painfully walking back as we followed, Aelin just kept giving me looks like she just wanted to deal with me later. I 'Observed' her.

Impressive... well, for someone who was moderately normal that is. I use the term normal loosely. I could see the distortion of the active camo of the Guard behind me, I just shot a look in their direction and motioned for them to come closer. The group was still looking at me funny, while Elide and the others were seething at Lorcan. Well it'll take a while for him to earn their trust back, but maybe I can add him to my own force. After Elide rejects him initially, she'll probably go back to him and become his lover. That'll be tough to get him to come to me, but it can be done. Oh, the experience box opened, I wondered when that was gonna' happen.
EXP Gained!

You Leveled up (x11)
Bonus Drops Awarded
Huh, I opened my inventory. Oh shit! There's bling in here! I looked at how much currency I had... well, fuck? I had over 2 million Money, cool I guess. I could always go on the market and buy some OP AF shizzle. I looked at the "Bling" as I called it, it was actually a crown. The crown itself was black and inset with pearls and red rubies, with my Illya Archer outfit, it was actually very snazzy. I 'observed' it after equipping it.
The Black Crown: Godly
Granted after killing a Deity-Classed entity.
50% Pressure on Anyone near you while wearing it.
Gain a 'Aura of the Proper'.
10% EXP Gain.
Look like a proper ruler.
With my Illya Archer outfit and crown equipped I spoke up, "Aelin, come here." She came over reluctantly, and totally cautious. I couldn't blame her, I mean I kinda killed a person basically classified as a divine. After she walked over I winked at her and then wispered 'Heal' and her wounds started to heal and mend. She looked at me in amazement and I just winked at her, she just muttered the word "How?" I decided I probably needed to speak, "You know... Hey Guard on me!" All of the guard decloaked and were in a star formation around me, "So Aelin, I believe we should talk." Aelin nodded and motioned towards the ships. Once I got on board with my Guard I healed anyone I came across and we walked towards where Rowan was talking with some troops of Ansel's. Ansel was Duchess of a barren place called Briarcliff or... would be Duchess, had some idiot conqueror not taken it, killing her parents. But after betraying Aelin, she returned to Briarcliff and took it over using the troops that she had recieved for the double cross. Now, she is an ally of Aelin's for a life debt which she owed Aelin, this was because Aelin promised Ansel 20 minutes to get away from her before she shot her, Aelin actually gave her 21.
That, is really sad actually, I honestly think most of the Throne of Glass series was really sad. I don't know really, but if anything I want to take over a portion of land here, maybe, maybe not.
We were walking over to Rowan now, and well Rowan is a Fae male. Basically Fae are the Elves of this universe, but beefier, like they were on steroids. All of them (I think) have a natural affinity to magic, and are physically superior in every way to Humans, especially lifespan, they are all basically eternal, immortal means someones invinceble, eternal means someone lives forever. But really a bullet would still one hit all of them, even Rowan. Aelin started to talk with Rowan and they kept giving me weird looks, I just quirked an eyebrow, and waited pulling a sandwhich out of my inventory.
They just gave me a weird look and I raised a eyebrow, "I am... former Prince Rowan Whitethorn, now of Queen Aelin's court." I simply nodded and smiled motioning towards Aelin.
She gave a wobbily smile, "I am Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, Queen of Terrasen. Well would be Queen if the Lords of Terrasen weren't such dic- I mean if they weren't so rude." I gave a knowing smile, those guys were total dicks. Absolutely 100%. Aelin nodded, motioning at me.
I sighed and finished off the sandwich I was eating, "I am Empress Illya White of Thalius. These..." I motioned towards my Personal Guard. "Are my Personal Guard." They looked dumbfounded while I smiled softly. Honestly I was showing off my pride in the guys a bit to much. "Also, isn't it King Rowan Whitethorn?" Rowan's lips pressed into a line, while Aelin smiled shyly, I knew it was just a act though, she was probably internally panicing. No one was supposed to know of their secret marriage, even... if she were to die he and would become King.
I just smiled, Aelin recomposed herself. "It seems we should cut this meeting short, Rowan might die of suspicion." Rowan was looking at me like I just ate his precious dog.
I giggled and nodded, "I suppose I should go. But, before I leave, you should know there isn't much I don't know about you. I always will find out if something happens. If you're in trouble I'll try to be there. Ta Ta." I created a portal and the Grenadier and Marksman stepped through, next the Medic, Machinegunner, and finally the Squad Leader. I winked at the people on the ship before stepping through.
(Line Break)
I flopped down in my heavily cushioned chair giving a sigh of happiness, "So Captain, how did our visit with these guys go?" The newly promoted Captain sat down his armor making her chair on the other side of her desk creak.
The Captain took off his helmet revealing a 21 year old, blond, spartan with briliant blue eyes, "Captain- Your majesty I am humbled by your decision, but... Why?" He shook his head, "Also why are you being so cryptic, you clearly know what's going on, so why not help them earlier on?" He stared at me intently.
I made a can of Coke with the 'Creation' Skill and drank some, "Well to answer the first question, it seems you have grown on me. But more than that you have proven yourself to take orders without hesitation, even ones that put me in danger. Also you know about the timeline, correct?" He nodded his head, "Well if I mess with the timeline to prevent anything bad from happening, the universe will just force something more crazy down our throat." I curled up in my chair, "But, if I take down the event as it happens, the universe won't be a dick. Got it?" He justed sighed and rubbed his temple. I shrugged, "Think about it. Also I haven't gotten a name from you yet."
The Captain deactivated his energy cloak, the resigual energies flowing into the ports from which they came. "I am newly promoted Captain Alex Wulfe." I nearly spat out my drink, Wulf that was my author name on , well... it seems The Gamer has a sense of humor. Still, fuck you ROB, you cocksucker. (ROB=Random Omnipotent Being)
I smiled to myself, "Well Alex I think you'll make a fine Captain, now can you organize everything in the base for now?" He nodded and I got to work, I purchased 6 factories using the 2.2 mil. money I have, each factory was 120,000. I also purchased a Planetary Defense MAC and 3 large factories, the factories were 200,000 each, while the PDMAC was 500,000. I contacted the Governor, and told him to find me a clearing for some fully automated factories I was going to put down.
(Line Break)
Me and Alex went outside and rode over to the area just outside the city, the Governor said we could use. I smiled and got to work organizing where I would put things.
(Author's Note)
I wanted to say that this chapter was a clusterfuck and I need to explain some things. 1. The main character Illya, is cold hearted and believes for there to truly peace, everyone should be united under one banner. Her banner. 2. All of the newer characters in the chapter are from The Throne of Glass series, you should really read the books or at least look at all of the summaries for the books if you want to understand a bit. Also Maeve was so easy to kill because of the Holy element of the Spear of Judgement. Also the magic in The Throne of Glass is kind of weak. 3. I will bring back Six once Illya is ready to start taking over universes like Battlefield 3, and Call of Duty. Also I don't think I will be uploading as often as I was in the beginning. :3 Wulfness.
