Sacrifice: Time of Mine

"Elder Khor, Elder Gan, what's with the young boys you've brought?" Elder Shana from the Wrenwor Family asked.

In addition to the two elders were Elder Shana and Elder Helen from the Sharya Family. It was a tradition that guarding a female should also be a female and male guarding a male. The reason should be common sense already.

Elder Khor and Elder Gan only replied with mysterious smiles.

"You will know later." Elder Gan answered and continued, "And what brought you here Elders from the Wrenwor and Sharya Families?"

"Of course we are here for Dragonian Sheran's little sister." it was Elder Shana who spoke again while Elder Helen stayed silent, only nodding.

Unlike both Elders from Crome and Freyor, these two female Elders are quite close as both of their princesses were close friends so they were frequent to interact with each other.

Elder Shana continued, "It still looks peaceful now but the Shimshemat Coast Land have already spotted the aerial army of Conqueress. It seems their vanguard is already there to scout. Since we, on the Reruon Mountain Land are just near the Shimshemat, they are sure to request our aid when the time comes."

"Dragonian Sheran have far foresight for inviting all the strongest Rank Es. Did it already reach you? The reason why we cannot contact anyone from the Manuio Isle is that the Might of Torge have flipped it upside-down, literally!"

The other three elders fell silent. They already know this, however, they were still doubting it. After all, they were confident to say that even if the four of them made a Synthesis Elesps, they couldn't recreate what the news said.

"But the most frightening out of all that, the innocent people were all safe. The World Elementalists only flipped the bases of the Supreme Royal Families not to let his enemies have reinforcements. Until now, nobody knows how he excluded the innocent people from this large-scale attack..."

Meanwhile, while being surrounded by the crown princes and princesses, Sheran had her ears twitched from hearing that.

'I really have far foresight!' but that made her think, 'Yeah, what's Old Maytan doing right now?'

...

With Mer as the lead in the team, in front of the Ten-Man Mighty Troop and the Penta Elementalist's direct disciples, they were able to not have an internal fight.

They just finished cleaning Haliviana. By cleaning, I mean they have killed all the Rank Ey Elemental Beasts that were on the loose after their only restraints, Haliviana, disappeared. After that, they culled the root of the Immoral Family and the Rianzares Family is no more... except for the missing prince that is.

It took them more than a day to cross the Areyas Sea and reach the now barren land of Manuio Isle.

"What happened here?" the Rank Ey Plant Elemental Disciple of the Penta Elementalist, Woren asked.

One of the Ten-Man Mighty Troop, Gergian answered, "This is Lord Maytan's doing, his strongest elesps ever, Opposite World." 

"This is just a single... elesp?" Mer asked with largened nostrils and a weird expression.

'I swear this man has a mental illness.' the Water Elemental Disciple thought.

"Yes, I am afraid that by using this, it means that Lord Maytan has been battling a large army all by himself. I suggest we hurry up!" Gergian urged along with other warriors from the Mighty Troop.

"Yes, let's go!" using different kinds of elesps, they were all traveled at high speeds. Since they are already on the coast of the Manuio Isle, it didn't even take them half a day to see the core of ruins.

There were only five people in the sky... they were all Rank Es Elementalists. One of them, Mer's group were familiar.

"Lord Maytan!" Gergian shouted.

Usually, even if they were kilometers away, their presence would be known by Old Maytan. However, when Gergian shouted only did Old Maytan notice them.

"Oh, Mighty Troop, Gamon's disciples, and Lady Sheran's butler. Come and help this old man find that little wolf. I have used the Opposite World to wake him up but it seemed like these people are adamant about keeping him."

"Mighty Troop, search!" Gergian shouted and they all scattered throughout the scene.

The heads of the Supreme Royal Families all sweated when they saw that the World Elementalist had reinforcements.

The other three looked at each other and nodded. Their hands rose as they descend, signaling to surrender. All of them, except the Patriarch of the Danhan Family who was under the pressure of initiating all of this, surrendered.

"Why are you surrendering!? They are all just Rank Eys, there are still four of us Rank Es!" he shouted however, the other heads only shook their heads.

"Are you still in your fantasy that Rank Es Elementalists are invincible? You only stepped into this rank so your view is still that of a lower rank who thinks that nothing can stop Rank Es Elementalist."

"We have yet to even defeat the Might of Torge! If this goes on, Manuio Isle will be no more!"

"Use your head, just tell where you hid the Three-Tailed Prismatic Wolf." the other heads shouted back.

Realizing that the others wouldn't change their minds, the Patriarch of the Danhan Family brought out the sleeping Three-Tailed Prismatic Wolf who was coated in a wall of wind that intercepts sounds and movement from the outside world.

"Prismatic Wolves can sleep up to a month..." Old Maytan smiled as he saw Cojier in his human form again.

With Old Maytan's benevolence, he did nothing more to the heads of the Supreme Royal Families of Manuio Isle. However, when Cojier woke up and learned of what happened after seeing Old Maytan's state, he didn't need his wolf form to kill the Patriarch of the Danhan Family.

"Old man, I'm sorry!" Cojier was about to cry when Old Maytan patted his head.

"It's fine, I didn't lose anything. And look here." he head waved his hand and hundreds of Rank Bih Water Elemental Beasts, Scarfar and Rank Ey, Golden Scarfars fell from the sky.

"Thank you!" Cojier couldn't help but hug Old Maytan.

"Go on, eat and after that, we will bring you back home." but Old Maytan frowned, "However, the Conqueress's army will be obstructing us, what to do?"

While eagerly catching and devouring the giant fishes as if he had a bottomless stomach, Cojier laughed, "Don't worry, old man! I will just need to demolish them all!"

Old Maytan laughed, "Thank you, Cojier."

All Rank Ey Elementalists there looked at Old Maytan, 'What a sly old fox.'

After Cojier had his satisfaction, they all made their way into the Crome Family.
