"In short, now that you have acquired basic knowledge about the Valskar... according to my master's orders, I will tell you about their strengths, their weaknesses, their motivations, and above all... their origins!" She confirmed after extinguishing the spark that was about to turn into flames in the alliance.
"But before that, each of you must all take a divine oath not to reveal anything to mortals unless similar cases occur. And you must in no way use the information I am about to reveal to you for selfish or dangerous purposes!" She said by addressing the leaders.
"Is that a joke I hope? A divine oath? Can you guarantee us that your information will allow us to defeat the Valskar?" Before anyone intervened, Alice hastened to ask the only question that concerned her. Taking a divine oath is like landing a time bomb that will remain attached to you until the grave. Even if you inadvertently break it... divine punishment will fall on you! And unlike other punishments that vary according to crimes, ancient books tell that the divine punishment that will fall on the person who breaks a divine oath will be increased tenfold! The divine oath was such a cruel punishment that even a person who knows his back blow feels uncomfortable having it signed by his enemy.
"Tsk, I don't think I said such nonsense. Know one thing, if you want to learn about the Valskar, it is impossible to do it without revealing certain information that is not supposed to be known to mortals!" She says, frowning.
"Humph, it smells like the trap. If what you say is true, then how can you know his information?" Hades replied in an arrogant tone. Any sensible being who did not know Sabrina would react in the same way.
"You Hades are silent! Do you know how much effort I made to get to this point with her?! So if you spoil everything, I swear I wouldn't waste my time putting an end to you!" Alice exclaimed in an angry tone when she saw the expression of Sabrina and Alvine. Her intuition told her that if she did not arrest this arrogant sovereign, she would lose her only chance to realize her dream. That of reaching divine rank!
"Tsk," -Hades.
"Empress Alichphar Blasht, please calm down, you may weaken our alliance, which is only a thread." Cheera Greenwood Intervened. "The divine oath still is not something that can be taken lightly! What guarantee do we have that proves to us that his information is real?!" She continued by accentuating Hades' remarks.
"Arghhh damn it! You still don't understand?! Have you forgotten our goal by coming here?! Do you have other solutions to save your peoples? Do you have the solution to solve?! Do you think we have time to care about our lives when the survival of all our races depends on it?!" She had no choice but to briefly recall the overall situation in which they are at the moment. Subsequently, she got up from her chair and placed her right hand on her left chest and raised her left hand to heaven, and said: "I, Alichphar Blasht, sovereign of the race of demons on the planet of Alzania... I take the divine oath to respect all your conditions, Sabrina." She sweared without the slightest hesitation. Just after her oath, her body shone with a golden glow! This is proof that the divine oath was successfully concluded.
"Damn shit! You should give us useful information!" Says Yuer with frustration. She stood in the same position as Alice and turn swore: "I, Miyako Yury, sovereign of half of the human lands... I swear with the divine oath that I would respect your conditions." Like Alice, Yury's body had the same glow around her.
"Sigh... Cheera Greenwood, the queen of the Elves. I swear with the oath to respect your conditions."
"Lilias Fylfly, as queen of fairies, I swear with the divine oath to honor your conditions until my grave."
"Sigh, fairies don't have a grave," Alvine replied.
"Don't spoil everything, please." She recognized by inflating her cheeks.
"Shit! Celestia Crimson, director of the Brisht Tower Academy... I swear with the divine oath to respect all your conditions." She sweared in turn.
One by one, everyone took Sabrina the divine oath not to reveal anything. Even if Alice and the others threatened Hades a little, he still ended up swearing. The two dwarves were no exception either.
"Well, now I can share with you everything I know about the Valskar...
"Wait, why didn't your master swear with the divine oath?! Don't come and tell us something as that he is aware of this story!" Gramphy pointed to Alvine.
"My master recently had a problem with divine punishment. If he ever takes a divine oath, the heavens will not wait for him to break his promise before trying to kill him. Even if there was not this factor, I don't need this method with him, I have absolute confidence in him." She says in a sure tone. "We are not going to devote all our time to you. If we don't stop interrupting me every time, we will be obliged to show you the door."
"Good. Where to start? The Valskar are the direct descendants of the mythical demon god! Sigh, To understand easily, Celestia, do you remember when I told you about primordial beings?!" She said, addressing Celestia.
"Uh, yes, beings who can create new lives, new species, or even a planet with all its content!" She put her finger on her cheek while reflecting on Sabrina's words.
She completely ignored the shocked expressions that others had on their faces and returned to her explanation. "Thank you. Mythical creatures are called irregulars! They are also created by primordial creatures! But instead of becoming a simple mortal, from birth, The weakest become holy ranks and the most powerful become deities! I don't want to go into their details. But what I mean by this is... what will happen if one of his superpowerful creatures manages to mate with an inferior creature and gives birth to his descendants?!" She paused and let the others digest.
"So what you mean by this is that the cause of their strength is due to their ancestors who is a mythical evil creature? But all this does not explain why the Valskars are stronger than us? If we were created by primordial creatures then the Valskar are the descendants of mythical creatures that are also created by primordial creatures. How can they be stronger than us?" Apart from Celestia, who was still able to follow the story and ask questions that can help them get out of it better. The others all had a big headache when they wanted to process the information.
"I think the creative process is different." Says Alvine looking at Sabrina with an interrogative air.
"You are right, master. Simply put, Mythical creatures are like children who have inherited a lot of genes from their parents (the primordials). While mortals are created only with their magic and laws. So there is a great difference between the descendants of these two races!" She said with a happy smile when she saw that Alvine was still as placid despite the shocking information he had just learned. 'Maybe it's time to tell him all the truth.' She Thought. She Was Thinking.
"No wonder his sons of bitch looked with disdain and treated us like inferior creatures!" All Thought!
"Well, now that you know why they are stronger than you and you know their origins, I want to tell you about their weaknesses." She continued, seeing that the others have calmed down a little.
"To begin with, they are not totally immunsed to the magic of elementary or intermediate affinities." She denied the words of Alice who said that elementary and intermediate affinities did not affect the Valskars.
"What?! I saw with my own eyes through the recording orb. No matter how much my men used elementary or intermediate spells... they didn't have the slightest scratch. They themselves had affirmed that elementary and intermediate affinities did not affect them! And most Valskars had also rare affinities!" Alice who has just come out of her trance does not help to exclaim.
"Sigh, Alice, do you remember when I said that you have little knowledge of cultivation?" She asked Alice the question.
"Of course, I remember, you just wanted to ridicule us for disrespecting your dear master, didn't you?" She says, grinding her teeth with annoyance. Apparently, she always thought that Sabrina was not chewing her words because she was always angry with them.
"Tsk, I am not the type to inflict such a small punishment on those who lack respect for my master. If my master had not prevented me from intervening, these two dwarves and this arrogant man will not be with the living!" She replied by staring at Hades and the two dwarf sovereigns. They could not help but avoid Sabrina's hostile look.
"So what did you mean by that?" Asked Celestia with confusion.
"Sigh, please, answers my question. What are the benefits that a person enjoys when he rises from a spiritual rank?" She asked.
"He will receive an overall increase in his strength, endurance, and magic points. And above all, he will have the chance to awaken a rare affinity!" She affirmed with confidence.
"Do you all agree with Celestia? Seriously, no one has anything else to add to it?!" She asked with a ridiculous air.
"If a person has more talent and a radiant destiny... she may even have the chance to learn and master one of the mortal laws by being at the spiritual rank. It was only a legend that turned out to be true when Empress Yury mastered her law of gravity by being at the top of spiritual rank! Don't look at me like that. I know this because your father would not stop boasting to me by saying that you are a blessed daughter of the seven gods!" She said when she saw Yury glancing at her.
"Sigh, what next? Someone else has something to add?" Insisted Sabrina in the hope that someone among the sovereigns would meet her expectations. But unfortunately for her, it was a failure.
"Ahh, instead of continuing with your mystery, can you simply tell us?!" Lilias lost patience followed by others.
"Sigh, very well. I think showing it will be faster than the explanation. Alice, summon a ball of fires of all your strength in your palm." Sabrina ordered Alice. Even if she did not know what Sabrina wanted, she still moved away from everyone and invoked a ball of gigantic fires that was the size of a giant orb more than five meters round! Its temperature was so high that Hades felt obliged to launch a protective barrier around everyone.
"Well, now, Ashia, does the same thing but the size of a communication orb," she says, addressing Ashia. The communications orbs were the same size as a basketball.
"Um." She nods her head and summons a ball of fire the size of a basketball. Looking at both spells only, anyone could say that Alice's was more powerful than Ashia's.
While the sovereigns were confused, Sabrina began to speak. "As everyone can see, both spells are cast with elementary affinities. That is, the lowest among affinities. Alice's fireball is larger and emits more heat than Ashia's because it contains more magical energy than Ashia's. Therefore, it consumes more mana too. Now I want to tell you about the greatest advantage that high-class mages enjoy more than others!" She said, snapping her fingers. Another layer of the protective barrier formed inside the Hades barrier.
"It's for your safety." She said when she saw Hades' dissatisfied look. "Ashia, now use your empress rank to strengthen your fireball. Oh, I almost forgot. Alice, it's okay, you can join us now." She says by creating not only an entrance in her barrier but also in the Hades barrier!
"!!!" -Hades when he saw Sabrina easily pierce a feint in his protective barrier!
Once Alice returned to the others, Ashia's fireball suddenly changed color! From yellow to dark blue! From dark blue to purple! And finally from purple to crimson red! When the color of the fireball changed to crimson red, the Hades barrier burst into a thousand pieces like a plastic bullet! The door that was made of mithril melted instantly under the effect of intense heat! Even those who were inside Sabrina's protective barrier felt like they were in the middle of an erupting volcano!
"This is the real advantage that the different ranks offer us!" She said by facing Alice and the others who had all their bodies soaked in their sweats!
