The World Serpent

Chapter 70 - 70-The Second Storm



Within the Northern Mountain Ranges, In the Capital of Dwarven. There was a Large Metallic Door that spanned 250 Meters in Height and 1.5 Kilometer in Width. The Large Metallic Door led to the Underground Fortress created by the Dwarves for their Military Organization. The military was an important aspect for the Nations within the Realm of Piksyon as Peace wasn't solidified despite the lack of Major Wars in the Recent Century.

The Underground Fortress was named Avernus. It was the Military Fortress of All Military Organizations within the Dwarven Nation. Numerous Steampunk Airships docked upon the Underground Fortress while some took Gigantic Vehicles like Trains which were 10x Bigger than the Normal One. From the looked of things from an outsider's perspective. It seemed that the Undeground Fortress was calling all of its Military Organizations all over the Nation.

In the Underground Fortress of Avernus was a 100 Level Basement that led underground. It pierced itself onto the Crust and contained the Command Center of the Dwarven Nation where all Commanders, Generals, and the Emperor to talk about incoming problems to their nation. The Command Center was named Anvil. The Most Advanced Command Center in the Dwarven Nation.

In the Command Room of the Anvil were Ten Dwarves talking to each other. Each of them had different Auras, and each of them had different Military Forces behind them. They were the 10 Forge Hammers of the Dwarven Nation. They were the 10 Strongest Dwarves other than the Emperor of the Nation. They talked to each other as the Giant Wooden and Metallic Door opened.

They looked towards the Giant Door and saw the Emperor entering the Command Room. The Dwarves quickly bowed and kneeled towards the Emperor. "No need to bow and kneel. Sit on your Chairs as something is rising within the Forest that might affect everything around it." The Emperor said with a Calm yet Stern Voice as the Dwarves sat back on their Chairs and waited for the Emperor to continue his words.

Emperor Koldreg looked at the 10 Forge Hammers. The 10 Dwarves were the Second Most Strongest Dwarves within the Dwarven Nation other than himself. They were his trusted subordinates, which was why they controlled a Military Force of their own and served Dwarven with their full capabilities. After looking at them with a stern expression, Koldreg continued his words.

"It has been a week since the strong surge of Energy appeared within the Occidental Region. We have also found traces of Outsiders trying to enter through it only to meet with their end. It has been centuries, and the Occidental Region has been left untouched. Even the Elves, Spirits, and Beastfolks have no plans on touching it." Koldreg said with a calm and stern voice as the Dwarves around him nodded at the same time.

"But from the Surge of Energy within the Occidental Region. It is highly expected that the Fifth Force of the Pentagon Union will finally appear." Koldreg revealed a High Possibility of a Fifth Force. The Dwarves around him, hearing his words, were shocked beyond belief. They never thought that the Fifth Force would appear in this Century. They didn't even notice something evolving within the Occidental Region.

The Occidental Region was full of Daemon Beast. There were no Daemon Monsters within it, which meant there was no Force considered a Daemon Monster. Even though no Daemon Monsters were allowed to step onto the Occidental Region, Observing doesn't consider stepping onto it. This was the Strategy of the Elves and Dwarves to observe the Occidental Region.

From their Observation, The Occidental Region had no Prime Daemon Beast, which was the Daemon Beast Rank before reaching Daemon Monster Rank. The only Ranks that were high enough to get observed were the Giant Daemon Beast which led some Daemon Beast within the Occidental Region. Since they have been observing the Occidental Region for quite some time, It got highly suspected that the Evolution of a Daemon Beast during this Era was quite unnatural.

"Did something invade the Occidental Region without getting detected by our Border Censors?" One of the Dwarves mumbled to himself. He had a White Beard and a Scar on his face. He was Buff, and his Height was Higher than Normal Dwarves. He was the General Commander of the Dwarven Army. The Main Force of the Dwarven Nation. His name was Gragham.

"Why are you asking such a stupid thing? The Fact that the Stupid Orks managed to send a Subjugation Group in the Occidental Region tells our Sensoring Capabilities of Region." A Feminine and Cold Voice replied. The Voice came from a Female Dwarf that looked like a Young Girl. She highly resembled a Little Girl, but her Expression and Aura say otherwise of her Physical Appearance. She was the General Commander of the Dwarven Air Force. Her name was Vafae.

"Okay, okay... Stop fighting amongst yourselves. Don't act like children, you Old Fools." Another Voice echoed within the Command Room. It was Calm and Peaceful, but it had a trace of mockery. The Voice came from an Old Dwarf who looked like a Weak Old Man. He had an Aura of Peacefulness which makes anyone with him lower their guards. But the Dwarves within the Command Room knew who he was. He was the General Commander of the Intelligent HQ. His name was Thrafeg.

"Shut up!!! You over a Millenia Old Man!!!" The Two Bickering Dwarves shouted as the Dwarves within the Command Room felt Cold Sweat dripping from their foreheads. They looked at Thrafeg, who had a Peaceful Smile, but such a Peaceful Smile was a simple facade of an angry Beast. The Two Bickering Dwarves realized the Smile of the Old Man and stopped fighting against each other.

"Sorry for causing unnecessary troubles, My Emperor." Thrafeg slightly bowed towards Koldreg, who shook his head and chuckled at the bicker in front of him. "Hahaha... No need to apologize, Thrafeg. It has been a while since all of us are together." The Emperor said with a calm voice as he stopped chuckling.

"Now, let us get serious..." Emperor Koldreg said with a Serious and Stern Voice as an Aura enveloped the Command Room. The Dwarves within the Room knew that the situation was serious, so they stopped reminding themselves of their previous grievance and began thinking about the Current Problem in front of them.

"A Fifth Force within the Pentagon already got prophesized according to some old Text, but such Fifth Force might break the Balance of the Pentagon. It has been Millenniums since the Creation of the Pentagon Union. The Fifth Chair didn't find someone to sat on it until now. We would need to meet the Fifth Force, and there is a High Possibility that the Elves might have also noticed the creation of a Fifth Force of the Pentagon" Emperor Koldreg explained the current problem in front of them.

The Pentagon Union was an Alliance created by the Daemon Monsters in the Great Forest. It was a Pentagonal Alliance between Five Regions. Which were the Northern Mountain Ranges, Occidental Region, Oriental Region, Korr Region, and Infra Region. The Races within such regions were the Dwarves, Elves, Beastfolk, and Spirits. The Occidental Region didn't have a Daemon Monster managing it and was left alone since the creation of the Pentagon Union.

The Pentagon Union had Five Chairs, which were sat on by the Leaders of the Spirits, Dwarves, Elves, and Beastfolk. The Fifth Chair was Empty, and it was still waiting for the Fifth Leader to rise. The Pentagon Union didn't want an Outsider of the Great Forest to take the Fifth Chair, so they placed the heir of the Fifth Chair for the Daemon Monster of the Occidental Region.

Time passes by within the Great Forest and After hundreds of Eras passing by within it. The Fifth Chair finally had a possibility to be sat on. It was a Good Alarm of the Pentagon Union as they even forgot the Fifth Chair existed. They even forgot why there was a Fifth Chair, to begin with.

"So what do we do with the Fifth Force on the Rise in the Forest?" A Dwarf asked with a curious expression. Emperor Koldreg looked at him and answered with a calm voice. "I would like to propose to send an Expedition on the Northern Borders of the Occidental Region. I would like for the Forge Hammers within the Room to send their Best Men and established connection with the Fifth Force."

"If that is what the Emperor wants, We must follow it without any questions." A Dwarf said as the Forge Hammers nodded at the same time. Vafae was thinking about their Emperor's Plan and spoke about it. "If the Emperor wants to send a Diplomat towards the Occidental Region. We need to be careful and not let the Fifth Force see us as a threat. They don't have information about the world around them. Any Force that seeks them would get considered as a threat to them. After all, they are still young."

"That is correct. I would like for all Forces to conduct Interviews on your Special Forces. I wouldn't want the First Contact of the Dwarves to end up in Violence, which means that Dumb Dwarves would likely be out of the Special Diplomats." Thrafeg said as he nodded at Vafae suggestion. It was better for the Dwarven Nation for the First Contact to be a Soft Road to Peace with the Fifth Force.

"Well... This should conclude the meeting, but I would like to send a warning to the Forge Hammers within the Command Room." Emperor Koldgreg said as his Voice got colder and serious. "The Information about the Fifth Force must be kept confidential. The Outsiders might use the Fifth Force to invade the Great Forest." He warned them to keep everything within the meeting to be confidential.

The Fifth Force was simply a balance breaker of the Great Forest. They were a New Gear within the Forest that could jam all the Gears and Break the Machine apart. The Elves also arrived at such a conclusion, but they would need to meet the Fifth Force before continuing to their current conclusion.

"Understood, My Emperor. Nothing shall escape about this meeting." Thrafeg said with a serious and cold voice as the Forge Hammers nodded at the same time. It seems that the Era of Peace in the Last Century would probably break during the Current Decade. Though, they wouldn't want to arrive at such a conclusion. Only time will tell.

"I'll trust all of you-" Before Emperor Koldreg could continue his words. A Pressure surrounded the Entire Room. The Air within the Command Room got Distorted as the Pressure invaded the Anvil Building. It affected every dwarf within the Anvil as it focused itself on the Command Room. The Reason why the Pressure got felt by the Dwarves was because of their strength.

All Dwarves within the Anvil Basement Building and the Command Room were the Strongest Dwarves within the Dwarven Nation. They could easily feel a Pressure that normal dwarves wouldn't be able to feel. The Pressure continued putting the Dwarves within the Command Room in Cold Sweat until the Aura of Koldreg engulfed the Room and forced the Pressure out.

"Tsk..." Emperor Koldreg clicked his tongue as he mumbled with a cold voice. "An Origin Skill." The Forge Hammers clearly heard his voice as they quickly rose from their Chairs and charged out of the Command Room. Someone was trying to spy on them, and it seems that it was a Powerful Being with an Origin Skill. The Skills only Emperors or Empress could get.

―――――

Meanwhile, within the Occidental Region. As the sun slowly set from the Horizon, A Young Girl sat on a Mountain Peak. She sat in a Lotus Position as her Silver White Hair rustled amongst the Breeze of Winds. The Young Girl opened her Eyelids, which revealed her Golden Amber Eyes, and mumbled to herself. "I never thought that someone could stop me from peaking.... Well, It seems that Everything is starting to get interesting."
