I've been getting some reviews that there are too many OCs. I apologize but I'm not someone who likes using characters from other animes, I'm more original. Anyway, this chapter will be showing some of the Wardens interacting more with each other and other characters. Enjoy and review!
(Carmarthen, Wales)
Hidden by magic was a cave outside the town. This place was sacred to Magnus and he would always come here once a year. The reason was very simple: This was the cave that Merlin was born and raised in by his mother after she fled the Church and it was here, he was buried.
Magnus had wanted to have Merlin entombed in Lemuria, but his foster son had desired to be buried alongside his mother, the first person to ever show him kindness. Such words were enough to convince Magnus, despite his personal feelings. Thus, once a year Magnus would come by to pay his respects and strengthen the barrier. For the cave was not only the tomb for the famous Magician but also held much of his personal items, some of which others might use with ill intentions.
It had happened when Camelot had fallen. During the Great War, Mordred had staged a coup due to his desire to claim Arthur's throne. To do so, he manipulated Lancelot in having an affair with Arthur's wife Guinevere, which caused the Knights of the Round Table to disband. Magnus had wanted to help settle the situation but had been forced to aid the Biblical God in sealing the Apocalyptic Beast, Trihexa. Even Magnus recognized the kind of threat that creature was. Then there was another unexpected entity that had attack Lemuria: A World Enemy, powerful creatures from YGGDRASIL, just like World Eater. Its appearance in this universe was a shock to Magnus and he and the Wardens were forced to defend themselves against them.
Because of that however Camelot fell. Along with that Excalibur was shattered, and it and many other items of the Knights fell into the Church, the rest scattered or hidden away by Merlin. The Magician himself was forced into isolation with Arthur's body. By the time Magnus had dealt with the matters at home and solidifying Lemuria, Merlin was already on his deathbed. His inability to save the one who was like a son to him was one of Magnus's greatest regrets.
That's why for the past few decades Magnus had buried himself in recovering the weapons and items of the Knights and Camelot's other treasures. Along with that Magnus shielded their surviving relatives, including the Pendragon family in secret. The former had been more difficult, as many people wanted the power that the Knights' weapons held. Many of those had been dealt with by Magnus and Lemuria. Excalibur was the last one, and Magnus just had to find the last shard, which was supposedly being used by someone in the Khaos Brigade.
"Add that and what we did with their forces in Kuoh, conflict with them might be unavoidable." Magnus said to himself. "Plus, Ophis will still be seeking out my help to fight Great Red. If only she knew the reasons for my refusal. Not like she care anyway."
"Your majesty" Sole said from a respective distance. She was standing among the many trees that surrounded the cave. "I've received word from Lord Mortem. The delegates of both Norse and Celtic pantheons have arrived at Lemuria."
Magnus nodded. He gave Merlin's tombstone, placed inside the cave, one last glance before turning around. Walking out of the natural structure, the dragon immediately casted the concealment spell, which made the cave entrance look like a giant rock covered in moss and roots. With a tired sigh Magnus looked at Sole. "Well then. Let's not keep our guests waiting."
(Majestic Island of Lemuria, Floor 1: Fortress)
An important fact to be known about Lemuria is that each of the first twenty-two floors were different in appearance. As one of the most difficult dungeons in YGGDRASIL, Lemuria's levels were some of the toughest and biggest ones in the game. After World Searcher conquered it, they made some modifications to the levels. These changes were based on environments, structures, size and NPCs located in them. Various POPs would spawn from these levels, their races different depending on the choices made by World Searchers. For the locations themselves, while all the NPCs and POPs love their respective levels, for outsiders, some were preferable for people depending on their style.
One such level was the 1st Floor, the Fortress. As the name said, the level was an entire fortress made to push back invaders, In the very center of the fortress was a large fortified castle called 'Indomitable Keep'. And while they were not visible, obviously, were a multitude of traps. Surrounding it was a moat that was filled with Sword Sharks, level 60 monsters that had fins and tails that were as sharp as blades and teeth that could bite through armor. This castle served as the home of Warden Ritter Schwert.
Presently, in the castle's dining room, four of the Wardens were chatting while going through food. They were Ritter, Ombre, Fjell and Croga. The topic was about the expected arrival of outsiders into Lemuria. Naturally, some of them were not too keen on the idea. As the protectors of Lemuria, having been put there by the members of World Searcher, the NPCs were fiercely protective of their home that they would destroy any invader without mercy. Even if they were guests invited by Magnus, they were cautious. Fjell was the most vocal among the four, chewing as he spoke loudly.
"This is bullshit!" Fjell roared, slamming his empty mug on the table. A nearby maid quickly ran over and filled it with beer. "I can't believe we're allowing fucking outsiders into the halls of Lemuria!" He added as he chugged the alcohol.
"Must you use such vulgar language, Fjell?" Ombre asked disdainfully. He took a sip of red wine. His coat and jacket were hanging on his chair, revealing his violet dress shirt. "Your creator would be disappointed if he heard words like those coming out of your mouth."
"Don't bring Lord Oshi-Biki into this, vampire!" Fjell roared, radiating a bit of power, a blue aura surrounding his body. "I think Lord Sharik would be more disappointed with your lack of concern!" Fjell said.
Ombre glared at the yeti at the mention of his creator. A reddish-purple aura began to cover him. The room began to shake and everyone except the other two Wardens shuddered at the power. Croga just kept gobbling up food, taking his comrade's anger as a source of entertainment. It was the Warden of Level 19 who spoke this time.
"If you're going to fight, do it somewhere else." Ritter said calmly. Presently he was out of his armor, and now wearing casual clothing befitting of a noble; a navy blue gambeson, with golden buttons, with a brown leather belt and silver buckle, along with black trousers, and of course matching boots. The attire gave off a divine aura, seeing how it was a high-level item with a strong defense. "I don't want damage happening to my home. And you know his majesty dislikes infighting."
The mention of Magnus made the yeti and vampire calm down and both return to their seats. The shaking also died down as the two calmed themselves. Still irked though, Fjell huffed. "Seriously, how can you all be so calm about this?" He asked Ritter.
Ritter swallowed some meat he was eating before looking at the yeti. "It is his majesty's decision. There is no room for argument. Or are you saying you wish to go against his majesty's will?" There was a dangerous gleam in the immortal human's eyes as he stared hard at Fjell.
"Course not. I just don't feel comfortable of having people not a part of Lemuria coming in. It defeats the purpose of us Wardens." Fjell said back.
"What about the inhabitants of Avalon? And Tiamat? We let them in, and you never voiced any complaints." Croga said through his mouth full of food. Near him was a plate with a pile of chicken bones.
"As much as it pains me to say it, I can kind of agree with Fjell." Commented Ombre. "Madam Tiamat is his majesty's mistress and thus has permission to enter and leave Lemuria as she pleased so long as she does not bring back any danger. As for Avalon, they have sworn loyalty to his majesty and thus can be considered a part of Lemuria. These people who will be visiting are possible allies or at least be neutral with Orbis. Thus, they can also be considered potential enemies too."
"That's why I'm against this." Fjell growled. "What if they're using his majesty's kindness to learn about our forces, try to steal relics or worse, assassinate his majesty?"
"If that's the case, then we'll slaughter them should they turn against Lemuria!" Croga declared loudly followed by a loud belch.
Before the conversation could continue, all four Wardens received a message from Mortem. [This is Mortem to all Wardens. The delegates have arrived. Return to your respective levels and make sure they are presentable. Your behavior shall reflect on his majesty. Do not fail him.] The General Warden ordered.
"Well, it appears it is time for us to work." Ombre said as he put on his overcoat. "As Mortem said, let us show our guests the glory of Lemuria in the name of his majesty." Fjell snorted but stood, while Croga let out a roar in agreement. Ritter nodded as he got up, letting the homunculus servants began cleaning the table.
(Entrance to the Island of Lemuria)
Sitting on a bench were two men. One of them was an elderly male with a long grey beard and a gold and white monocle over his left eye. The other was a handsome man in his early twenties with golden hair, eyes and beard, wearing a white suit. Standing near them was a beautiful young woman with long silver hair and wore a blue suit. In order they were Odin, the Allfather and leader of Asgard, Vidar the third son of Odin, and Rossweisse, a Valkyrie and Odin's aide.
"I must admit this is quite the beautiful garden." Vidar commented as he looked at the many exotic flowers around him. There were also the pure white marble paths, benches, tables, pillars and trees too, giving it a peaceful vibe.
"Indeed, it is Vidar." Odin said to his son. "I just hope the women here are just as beautiful too!" He added with a perverted grin.
Rossweisse sighed. "Lord Odin, can you please not act like that. You're here representing all of Asgard, you must be on your best behavior. Plus, I have heard that the inhabitants here do not take kindly to that sort of thing." She scolded her leader.
"Yes, yes I know." Odin waved off his aide. "Honestly Rossweisse I wish you not act so stiff. This is why you don't have a boyfriend yet."
"T-that has nothing to do with this!" Rossweisse exclaimed. It seemed like those words really struck a chord into the Valkyrie. She seemed close to crying over her status as single.
A fourth voice laughed. "I see that you haven't changed, oh mighty Allfather!"
Approaching the Asgard group were three individuals. At the front was a tall man who appeared to be in his fifties. He had reddish brown hair and a beard, as well as green eyes and tanned skin, like he had been under the sun for long periods. He wore an extravagant green hooded cloak with a golden necklace around it and matching bracelets over his wrists. He also wore blue pants and brown boots. In his right hand was a wooden staff. This was Dagda, Chieftain of the Celtic Pantheon and god of Druids, Fertility, Agriculture and Knowledge.
Behind him was another though younger male. This one appeared around the same age as Vidar. He had short black hair combed back and a bit of fuzz on his chin. His eyes were a deep golden brown and had fair skin. He wore a navy-blue jacket over a black shirt and black jeans with matching boots. This was Lugh, Celtic God of the Sun, Storm, Craft, Oath and Law. He was also listed among the top ten strongest beings in the world.
The third person was the sole female of the group. She was a beautiful young woman with a voluptuous body including good curves and large breast. She had long pitch-black hair and purple eyes and fair skin. She wore matching purple lipstick and black fingernails. For clothing she wore a black dress that highlighted her figure and showed an ample amount of cleavage. It had a slit on the left side, revealing her smooth legs and black heels. The dress's straps had black feathers that went over her shoulders. This was Morrigan, Celtic Goddess of War, Death and Crows.
Odin chuckled as he went to greet his fellow god. He shook Dagda's hand heartily. "Ha! It's been a long time Lord Dagda. Good to see you as well Morrigan. Looking lovely as ever." Odin said as he shamelessly looked over the goddess's body.
Morrigan snorted. "And you're still as perverted as ever. I'm surprised Frigg hasn't castrated you yet."
Chuckling nervously, the Allfather looked back at Dagda. "Anyway, it's rare for any of you'd Irish lot to come out. You've guys been reclusive since Camelot fell." Odin commented.
Dagda laughed. "Yes, well when I heard Lord Magnus was coming out of isolation, I just had to pay him a visit like old times." The God of Druids said. Then he leaned a bit closer, serious look on his face. "Word to the wise: best not mention Camelot to Lord Magnus. It's a touchy subject for him." Dagda warned.
Odin frowned but nodded. Odin had been one of many who had sensed the grief-stricken roar of Magnus that day. It was so powerful that the Allfather had though Ragnarok had come. Plus, it wouldn't do him any good bringing up old wounds when he came here for peaceful reasons.
It was at that moment a large [Gate] opened at the entrance to the Garden. The delegates watched as two lines of Lemurian Sentinels marched out. Each one was equipped with magical armor and weapons. They had humanoid forms but glowing yellow eyes and iron silver metallic bodies. Their exoskeleton was gold and each one carried a spear and Heater Shield. Like all POPs, the Sentinels were at maxed level 30. While weak in comparison by YGGDRASIL Standards, this put them on the same level as High-Class and Ultimate-Class Devils. They came in different types, with these ones being Lemurian Bronze Sentinel Spearmen.
Once they were out the two lines stopped and moved so that the Sentinels were facing one another. They held their weapons up in salute before the delegates. Following them were two different footsteps. Coming out of the portal next was a black furred humanoid Hellhound around 7 feet wearing a tuxedo. He had a scar over his right eye and a small red mohawk on his head. Behind him was a humanoid being slightly taller than a normal human. It wore a white mask with a large black X-shape mark on it. The rest of the attire was a long dark brown cloak that was tattered at the bottom and the wrist collars. Upon closer inspection, the delegates saw visible joints, leading them to realize that it was a puppet.
The Hellhound walked up to the delegates. "Greetings! I am Wein Heulen, Head Butler of Lemuria!" Vin said as he raised a furry hand in greeting. He then gestured to the puppet. "This is my associate, Heckler Kotch, a Custodian who serves under Lady EZY. In the name of his Majesty, Magnus Alduin, we welcome you to the glorious Majestic Island of Lemuria!" He finished with a dramatic bow. Heckler merely nodded his head in greeting.
"A hellhound?" Rossweisse commented. She was more surprised of the aura that said creatre was giving off. It rivaled that of an Ultimate-Class Devil. The puppet was also no slouch ether, giving the strong aura he had around him. It made the Valkyrie wonder how strong their leader was.
"Don't let him fool you, Valkyrie. While he's not one of the strongest, Wein is highly capable of directing the many servants in Lemuria." Morrigan told Rossweisse.
Dagda was the first approach. "It's been quite a long time, Sir Wein. I trust Lord Alduin is doing well."
"His Majesty is well, Lord Dagda. He will be most please to see you again after these centuries." Wein replied politely. "Now please follow us through the [Gate]. We shall be heading directly towards the throne room where his majesty is waiting for us." And with that the Hellhound spun around and walked back through the portal. The Celtics immediately followed with the Norse delegates coming up behind. Heckler Koch took up the rear as the portal closed behind him.
Seconds later they appeared in front throne room door. Its large dark purple and golden trim appearance made Rossweisse feel a bit unnerved. She could feel several strong auras on the other side, as well as three incredibly powerful ones that surpassed that of Odin. Said deity did not seem physically bothered by the powerful presences, nor was Vidar. The Celtic Deities seemed fine as well, though they were probably use to it.
The massive doors opened, revealing to the guests the throne room. The Dracon Knights stood at attention. Most were lined up along the red carpet that went from the door to the throne. There were also additional knights around the room, three under each banner that represented an Almighty One. And at the throne itself was Magnus Alduin. He was in his human form, his long white hair tied into a ponytail. He wore an elegant white robe with golden trims and jewels embroidered onto the sleeve collars and bottom of the robe. Underneath it was a black suit with black dress shoes and a blue vest and white dress shirt. Tucked just beneath his collar was a multicolored bolo necktie. In his left hand was World Glaive, the item shining off the light it reflected. To his right was Mortem, Warden General, while to his left was Sole Bagliore.
Wein bowed before his leader. "I present to thee, Lord Magnus Alduin, Ruler of Lemuria, Lord Odin, Allfather of Asgard and Lord Vidar from the Norse Faction! And Lord Dagda, Lord Lugh and Lady Morrigan of the Celtic Pantheon!" The butler said as he allowed the delegates to walk forward.
The deities bowed their heads in respect. "Greetings, Lord Magnus. I am Odin, and I am most honored to finally meet you in person." Odin said, not showing any of his previous goofiness.
"As do I, Lord Odin. I welcome you and your entourage to the Majestic Island of Lemuria." Magnus said politely. He then turned to look at Dagda. "And I am happy to see you again as well, Lord Dagda. To you as well, Lady Morrigan, Lord Lugh."
"It is great to see you as well, Lord Alduin." Dagda replied as he bowed his head in respect. Morrigan and Lugh did the same.
Magnus nodded and then looked back at the Asgard representatives. "I like to extend my welcome to Lord Vidar and…" He paused as he looked at Rossweisse.
The Valkyrie approached carefully and bowed. "My name is Rossweisse, your excellency. I am Lord Odin's bodyguard."
"Ah" Magnus said. "Welcome to Lemuria then, Ms. Rossweisse." He said, making the Valkyrie's cheeks turn a bit red. "Beside me is Sole Bagliore, Guardian Commander of my Royal Guards, as well as Warden General Mortem, who commands Lemuria in my absence. However, that is enough introductions. Follow me and we'll head to one of the restaurants in the lower levels." Magnus said as he got off his throne. He made his way to one of the doors that connected to the twenty-sixth floor, Sole and Mortem behind him.
(Underworld, City Lilith)
At the capital of Devil Society, a meeting was happening between the leaders of the Three Factions. Among them were Sirzechs Lucifer, Serafall Leviathan, Ajuka Beelzebub, Azazel along with Vice Governor General Shemhazai and Michael. The discussion was about the appearance of the new faction. "So, has there been any new word regarding Orbis?" Sirzechs asked.
"From what my agents tell me, the Norse and Celtic pantheons have reached out to Magnus. By my estimate, they're probably already paying a visit to Lemuria." Azazel replied. He had a bored look on his face, much to Shemhazai's annoyance. "Given their history, high chance that old man Dagda will ally with Orbis."
"True, so we can expect them on backing the other up. What about Asgard though?" Michael asked.
"I've met Odin before. That geezer might consider remaining neutral since he's one of the more open-minded deities." Azazel commented. "Still, we should be careful anyway. Both factions possess pretty powerful individuals. Add them with Orbis and anyone who gets in their way is dead."
The others nodded. Along with their respective chief deities, both pantheons had members who were listed among the top 10. "Has there been any agreement of trying to ally ourselves with Orbis?" Serafall asked.
"There have been debates on the matter. However, I fear that any attempts to extend an inviting hand might not be well received by Orbis, given our history with Lemuria. Including what this guy did with one of their relics." Shemhazai sent a glare towards Azazel, who whistled innocently.
"I have to agree with Shemhazai there. Many members of the Church are still rather upset about having to hand over the Excalibur Shards. Some of whom are high ranked and could possibly leave the Vatican should we even try to do such a thing. We're already receiving many objections from this alliance with the Devils. No offense." Michael apologized to the three Satans.
"None taken." Sirzechs replied. "I too fear that they won't ally with us. Many of the inhabitants of Lemuria still seem to hold grudges when a good number of Devils have tried to force them into their peerage in the early years after the Civil War."
That caused Serafall and Ajuka to flinch. When the Evil Pieces were first created, Devils were going across the entire world to reincarnate people into their servants. Their natural vices such as greed made them even go into territories of other factions. One of which was the Majestic Island of Lemuria. Many devils believed that they were superior and took what they wanted, thus tried to take some of the people from Lemuria and Avalon. Long story short, those Devils were swiftly killed, no survivors, and conflict nearly broke out if it weren't for the Four Satans doing damage control. As the action was in self-defense, the Devils couldn't retaliate because they could not risk a war after just ending another one. Magnus was willing to drop the whole thing so long as Devils kept away from his territory. It's worth mentioning that a lot of the Devils killed were high-class Devils from the Pillars. That caused massive arguments among the Devil nobles, but as said before, they could do nothing.
It was Serafall who spoke. "Perhaps we should offer Lord Alduin an invitation anyway. If we can't be allies, then we perhaps could at least be neutral form. True they might still hold some grudges against us, but the Lemurian inhabitants will follow whatever Lord Alduin says. If we can show him that we've changed over the past 200 years, then we won't have to worry about open hostilities." She explained.
The others could see the logic behind that. Magnus was the sole ruler of Lemuria. And it was obvious that the people there were absolutely loyal to him. If they could persuade the dragon to form a non-aggressive paper, then they wouldn't have to worry about looking over their backs. "I like the idea. Plus, if Khaos Brigade decides to pick a fight with both of us, we can work together based off of neutral desires. However, Serafall, isn't your idea based off more of your desire just to see Alduin?" Azazel said the last part with a teasing smirk. He had to duck when a large icicle shard nearly hit him. "Well, I better head back to the kids. I finally managed to get an instructor for the Red Dragon Emperor. Don't want to be late!" He said quickly before entering a teleportation circle. His Vice-Governor General merely sighed in exasperation.
(Gremory Territory)
Azazel stepped out of the teleportation circle. Waiting for him the Gremory's garden were Rias in her peerage. They were all dressed in jerseys now for the upcoming training. "Sorry about that everyone. Had to get some work done before coming over." Azazel said as he was now too dressed in a jersey.
"Anyway, it's time to get practicing. I'll start off with Issei since his instructor can't stay for to long." Azazel said before turning his attention towards said pervert. "Basically, you need help in obtaining and mastering your Balance Breaker. That's why I asked him to come over."
At that moment a large magic circle appeared behind the Fallen Angel. Stepping out of it was a purple dragon walking on his legs. "Everyone, this is Tannin. One of the Seven Dragon Kings. He'll be your instructor on gaining Balance Breaker, Issei." Azazel announced.
"It will be interesting training the possessor of Ddraig." Tannin mused as he looked down on the Devils.
As the others were gawking at Tannin's size and aura, it was Rias who asked, "Wait, I thought you said he was aligned with Orbis. Why would he be here to train a devil?" She asked.
Chuckling, Tannin replied. "Azazel asked the same thing. Though I have sworn loyalty to his Majesty, Magnus gives us dragons and other inhabitants of Avalon some freedom. So long as it does not threaten Lemuria, we're allow to do as we please."
"I'm guessing training the wielder of Boosted Gear doesn't count as a threat, huh?" Azazel mused.
"Not really. At his current level, the boy wouldn't last ten minutes against most of Lemuria's forces, let alone against his majesty." Tannin said. He then added. "Plus, his majesty had said to me, 'If the idiot gains some more strength, he'll make a better punching bag for Tiamat next time.'"
A depressed hue formed over Issei. The boy could still remember the beating the female dragon had given him.
"Speaking of dragons, do any of you have a dragon for a familiar? His majesty made mention of sensing one when he was at the summit." Tannin said.
It was Asia who responded. "Eh? You mean Rassei?" She asked. A magic circle formed above her hands and seconds later a small blue dragon appeared. Rassei let out a little yawn before looking up at everyone.
"Hoh? A Sprite Dragon? Most impressive." Tannin commented as he examined the young dragon. "Anyway, Lord Magnus was interested in meeting whoever it was, so I'm supposed to activate this gate scroll so the young one can head to Lemuria." Tannin explained as he took out a scroll. It had a circle on it with an intricate design.
Asia blinked as Rassei flew from her arms. "Eh, is that really okay?" Asia asked, worried for her familiar.
"Oh, its perfectly safe for him. If your dragon's lucky, Lord Magnus might even train him." Tannin replied.
Azazel whistled, surprised by that. "Damn, if he does that, then your little Sprite Dragon might become even stronger. Magnus was the one who trained Merlin, and that guy had Satan-class level power by the time he became Arthur's advisor."
"Lord Magnus actually possesses an ability that can increase the power level of dragons who are under his wing, figuratively speak of course." Tannin added as he activated the gate scroll. A small portal tore through the air in front of Rassei. The Sprite Dragon gave a wave towards Asia, before electrocuting Issei, and then entered the portal as it closed behind him.
"Now that's out of the way," Tannin said. He picked up the unconscious and toasted Issei into his claws. "I'll be heading to the mountains to begin this boy's training. See you all later!" With that the Blaze Meteor Dragon took off, carrying the Red Dragon Emperor with him.
(Majestic Island of Lemuria, Celestial City)
"Delicious!" Odin exclaimed as he took another bite of shining meat. It was followed by a sip of multi-colored wine.
The Norse and Celtic delegates had been guided to what was called the Celestial City, which was made up of the twenty-three to twenty-five floors. It had the appearance of a city built inside, including an artificial sky that changed from night to day. It had everything a city needed, from complexes for NPCs not assigned to a specific level, to parks, streets and various facilities such as clothe stores and restaurants. Presently, the visitors and Magnus were eating at a restaurant reserved mainly for the Almighty Ones, high valued guests, Wardens and Custodians. The reason because that it overlooked the Celestial City. They ate in an observation room, letting them look down at the inhabitants moving about below.
For the past three hours Magnus took them on a tour around the three levels, showing the delegates the many facilities that they had here, including stores, labs, production and a brief show of the archives. Hundreds of things that were beyond what the human world and their own pantheons they had, as well as other innovations the delegates had never seen before, ranging from magic, spells, items and so on. As they looked around, the visitors also took notice of the inhabitants of Lemuria. There were numerous species, ranging from humanoids, demi-humans and heteromorphic. They were all moving about and socializing with one another. No prejudice, no discord, nothing. It was as if they had been like this all their lives. Nothing short of paradise could be used to describe what they've seen. Now, here they were, in one of the city's restaurants, sampling some of Lemuria's food.
"I see you're enjoying the Jewel Meat, Lord Odin." Magnus said as he took a bite out of a Hardcrab with Fried Beach Rice inside it. He was drinking the same type of wine as Odin.
"Jewel Meat, that's its name?" Odin mused as he looked at the food. "Indeed, the shine it gives off certainly does look like a jewel." He added as he took another bite. "And this wine is incredible. Its like I'm tasting seven different flavors with one sip."
"That would be Rainbow Fruit Wine. One could compare it to nectar almost." Magnus explained.
"T-this is incredible!" Rossweisse exclaimed in awe. She was gulping down her second serving of Garlic Bread Oyakodon. Beside her was a cup filled with a soda called Mellow Cola. "This dish just defies common sense and yet taste so good! How can such food exist?"
"From what I recall, Lemuria has been experimenting on creating new and unique ingredients. As well as breeding animals that have never been seen before. Am I correct?" Dagda asked Magnus. He was eating a bowel of Strawberrice, with a plate of Cabbage Cheese and cup of Summer Whiskey. Lugh was chomping down on a Corn on the Bone and Morrigan was sampling some Shining Gourami with Melk Stardust seasoning. Vidar meanwhile was eating a Bacon Leaf wrapped around Rainbow Fruit. Maids and Butlers were near their large circular table.
"It took us a few decades, but through magic and science we were able to artificially create unique animals, fruits and plants for us to use in the gardens located here and on the 11th and 18th levels as their environments were best suited." Magnus explained. "I was actually thinking of expanding some of our business outside of Lemuria, though it will be difficult getting permission from the other factions."
"True. From what I've seen so far, you guys could gain a huge economy from the various businesses you have going on here." Vidar commented as he took another bite of his dish.
Magnus nodded as he finished his plate. He then looked at the two Chief Gods. "So, after seeing most of Lemuria and what we possess, I am curious to know where you two stands with us?" He asked Dagda and Odin.
"You already know my answer, Lord Magnus. We of the Celtic Pantheon are deeply indebted to what you've done helping Avalon and our faction. You can consider us allies." Dagda said confidently, earning nods from Lugh and Morrigan.
"I am honored by your trust in me, Lord Dagda. I assure you, I will make sure to prove myself worthy of it." Magnus bowed his head in gratitude. "And what of you, Lord Odin?" The dragon asked the Allfather.
Odin swallowed another piece of meat. He wiped his mouth with a napkin before looking at Magnus. "Well, from what I've seen so far, your faction is far superior than several factions combined. In terms of both military power, products and monetary success. Anyone who tried to go against you would have a death wish." Odin said. There was a glint in his eye. "However, there is one question I'd like to ask before I make my decision."
Magnus raised an eyebrow. The player had a feeling of what that question was but decided to ask anyway. "And what would that be, Lord Odin?"
Odin put both arms on the table and rested his chin on his hands. "Where are you people from?"
And there we go, chapter 6 is done. I hope you like some of the revelations and level 19's description. Be sure to leave a review too!
P.S. I'm sure you noticed but the food used comes from Toriko.

Even so, he does not speak much and prefers to just listen, only speaking when wanting to add something to the discussion. When given a task, he will put his entire attention towards it and act with absolute zeal in carrying it out. Despite being directly under EZY, Heckler is willing to take orders from other Wardens.
