The God Of Power

Chapter 106: Chapter 105

Chapter 105:

"I'm sorry, what?" Alister, the Duke of the North, asked, confused.

"You heard me, brother. This man is from outside our kingdom. He entered the tournament hoping to meet with me for some reason, gained noble status from you, and then performed feats that forced me to show myself. He did exactly what I wanted—he made me acknowledge an outsider with my presence," Earth God George said as Noboru looked at him.

"So you knew, and you didn't try to stop me? What's your angle?" Noboru asked.

"Because, young Noboru, this is what I wanted. You are the first person from outside this realm—not just the kingdoms, but the realm—to come and seek me out," Earth God George said, surprising everyone.

"You know I am from outside this world?" Noboru asked.

"Indeed," Earth God George confirmed.

"But how? No one ever knows the difference between people from this world and those who were Dimensium-reincarnated into other realms," Noboru thought. "I see," Noboru said, keeping all relevant information to himself, which the Earth God noticed but chose to ignore.

"But anyway, why don't you tell me why you sought me out?" Earth God George asked as Noboru sighed.

"I presume you've heard the tale of Void Queen Yami and the Void that consumed all the Kingdoms of Old?" Noboru asked, causing everyone to be on edge.

"Of course. It's an ancient legend," Earth God George replied, and his younger brothers, the three dukes, nodded in agreement.

"Well, you see, there is a group called the Disciples of Darkness. They aim to collect all four Relics and use their power to create a singularity that will once again consume everything. They are a group made up of the powerless—abuse victims who were mistreated for not possessing aura. They consist of the powerless from the three kingdoms: Aeritha, Ignarock, and Aquora, and perhaps even Terravale, though I haven't encountered anyone from here who's part of the group yet," Noboru said, and was interrupted.

"You shouldn't be surprised. The powerless should be respected and have rights, but I can't say the system is perfect. There might be some who got away with mistreatment, but I've tried my hardest during my rule to ensure everyone is equal and that the powerless aren't mistreated. I've done my best to make sure they are treated fairly," Earth God George said. "But continue, why are they so obsessed with unleashing the Void upon us?"

"It's simple—they are obsessed with the Void Queen Yami. To the point that they have unleashed the Void on the other kingdoms. Sky over here lost his mother in one of their attacks. Fire General Kai can attest to the fact that they were also after the Bravehart Shield," Noboru said as Earth God George looked at Sky, Fire General Kai, and the others.

"I see. What's your plan then, Noboru Chikara?" Earth God George asked.

"We have come to you with an offer to join the alliance to fight the Disciples of Darkness. Yumeko is the daughter of the Wind God, Kaze Hayashi, and is here on behalf of Aeritha. Fire General Kai, as his name suggests, is here on behalf of Fire God Ignis of Ignarock, and I am here on behalf of Aqua, the Water Goddess of Aquora, because she didn't have anyone to spare due to the severity of the Void Invasion on Aquora," Noboru explained as Earth God George nodded.

"I see. And why should I agree? If they haven't attacked Terravale yet, why should I help?" Earth God George asked, shocking everyone.

"B-because it's the right thing to do," Sky said.

"Sky is right. You are the only kingdom not affected. You could stop them before they become too powerful," Layla added.

"They plan to free Void Queen Yami. When she is freed, the Void will expand until everything is consumed like the Kingdoms of Old. Do you want that?" Noboru asked Earth God George.

"Well, that is a problem. However, we should not rush things. But let me ask my brothers—what do you think?" Earth God George asked his younger brothers.

"I will gladly join the Alliance," Alexander, the Duke of the East, said.

"I agree. This is too important," Charles, the Duke of the South, said.

"We shouldn't risk it," Theodore, the Duke of the West, said, shocking everyone.

"You can't be serious," Alister, the Duke of the North, said in disbelief.

"I am. I don't trust him. We don't know anything about him. What if this is a plan to weaken us? Why should we go and fight a battle that is not our own? If the other kingdoms can't protect their lands, then that's their problem," Theodore, the Duke of the West, stated firmly.

"Brother, he is from the outside. He was the first person from the outside to try and meet the Earth God. We should trust him. It's obvious that the Disciples of Darkness are a problem and are after the relics," Alister, the Duke of the North, argued.

"That's right. We can't just abandon them," Charles, the Duke of the South, added.

"But they haven't attacked us yet. They are a threat, yes, but the Disciples of Darkness will be crushed by the combined forces of the four kingdoms," Theodore, the Duke of the West, replied.

"Enough! So the vote is three saying yes and one saying no. Hmmm. Theodore, you say no because you fear losing. How about this, then? If Noboru defeats me, the strongest in the kingdom, then Terravale will agree to join the alliance. Is that acceptable to you, brothers?" Earth God George proposed.

"That is a good idea. Brother, if Viscount Noboru can defeat you, then Terravale will join the alliance. If not, we will stay out of it," Alexander, the Duke of the East, agreed.

"Fine, I will agree to that. I will win," Theodore, the Duke of the West, declared.

"Well then, it's decided. Viscount Noboru Chikara of Chikyu Chikara City shall duel against the strongest person in Terravale, Earth God King George. If Noboru wins, Terravale will join the Alliance; if not, we won't," Charles, the Duke of the South, confirmed.

"I too will agree to this," Alister, the Duke of the North, said in agreement.

"Very well, it's settled. We will hold the duel after the party," Earth God George said, standing up, surprising everyone. "It will make a good event for the citizens of Chikyu Chikara City. What do you say, Viscount Noboru?" Earth God George asked.

"Sounds good to me," Noboru said as everyone clapped.

"Very well. We will enjoy the party, and then you and I will have a match to decide the future of Terravale," Earth God George said as Noboru nodded.

"Very well then," Noboru replied.
