While the northern glade was truly a welcome prize for Raen valley, what he was really looking forward to was total control and command of the central glade. From where he was standing Cole could still see the massive pillar of light reaching the sky. The could see the massive tree right in the middle and the hundreds of darkling creatures that filled the skies in the distance the smallest of which was about the size of a small sedan.
All in all Cole knew this would not be an easy challenge for the Raens. But then again it seems their final enemies were without a doubt the Darklings, and the Raens were most predisposed to dealing with beings of energy. But still Cole could feel it in the wind, from his increased territory after swallowing up the Northern Glade, he knew without a doubt that not a single one of them were ready to tackle the challenge that was the central glade.
Cole was not sure, but he would probably have to have some of his stats in the diamond rank, or at least be at level 100 before he would be able to face off against whatever was in there that gave off this ominous feeling. Cole never felt it before, not thin strongly. It was almost as if the more territories that were around kept the aura caged.
But now with three territories now becoming one, whatever function they served in keeping it contained was gone. It was a worrying affair, but like all things that has been thrown their way they would deal with it, swiftly and with everything they had if it ever turns out to be a problem. Cole turned and walked towards the entrance of the glade where Tehila was standing looking over a system screen and making changes and arrangements to the territory seeing as they just grew even larger with the new territory that's been added.
"I'm preparing the glade for rank up into the gold rank. It would take a few days to complete and it seems there would be a trial of some sort, so id advise to be here so we can deal with it together. Problem is a call just came through….someone has figured out a way to break through the domed barrier over the dungeon outside London.
According to the report the elves are out en masse and armed. It's going to turn into an all out war, a fuse has been set in front of both sides. They're just waiting to see who would be the fool to light it up first. And given the look on your face I take it you want to go there and do the honors, be the fool…..or perhaps in your case you would just be causing chaos." Tehila said with a mirthful look on her face, not looking up from the system screen in front of her.
"Id rather our universe is not bickering among ourselves by the time the incursion fully takes hold. To do that they need someone to really look up to, or fear to get them all in shape. And while I know such peace and unity would never last, I'm hoping it would last long enough for earth to have acclimated and got it's own sea legs in the ocean of much, much bigger fishes.
After that, they can all go fuck themselves for all I care. I just don't want to live to the whims of someone stronger than me. And if I cant get strong enough, then id rather I have many more people of equal strength beside me, you might not give a shit if you're faced with a single ant, but you sure as hell would be worried if a thousand angry black soldier ants come rushing under your door."
Tehila nodded to him, she understood more than anyone else that Cole was worried about the bigger picture. Perhaps there were a few like minded people like him around, but how many were willing to do what was necessary and go the distance to ensure that everything goes well. It was not an easy burden to carry or an easy road to walk.
Cole wasn't actively trying to be antagonistic or good. He was chasing strength and doing it in such a way that everyone that matters now in this universe could see it with their own eyes. Be intimidated by it and chase after it just so that they can be like him or try to bring him down.
With so many people all chasing strength even if they would be no sense of unity, as long as they can channel and direct that at the right direction, then perhaps earth would have a chance at surviving and not being swept up in a wave. They might have a shot at fooling the universe that they were more than what they already are, to give them a snowball's chance in hell to survive the Apocalypse.
"well you better get going then, of selfless savior of earth and her universe?" Tehila quipped with a small smile on her face as Cole turned and asked. "Seriously?" but Tehila said nothing, the smile on her face equally mirrored by the one on Cole's face. Selfless savior? Total and utter bullshit.
As Cole vanished, returning back to deal with 'real life' problems. Tehila returned her attention back to the screen in front of her. There was nothing Selfless about what Cole was doing…..sure it could all turn out exactly as he has said it would. But in the end earth would be a mound of angry fire ants no one wants to mess with, and Cole would be Demon holding their controllers.
Tehila shook her head, as she really took a much longer and harder look at the prompt in front of her. It was something weird and crazy, but at the same time it was something that could perhaps give her the edge she needs. Cole had his goals, and she had hers. And while for now their paths aligned, it might diverge one day…..Cole was not the only one hungry for power.
