After giving everyone 20 minutes to prepare, Shiro made her way over to the control room with Nan Tian following behind her.

  "Are you going to be sending this place to the Rift now?" Nan Tian asked as she had spoken to him about that when they were resting.

  "Mn. I don’t know how much damage Rokarn will cause during the fight. With Yin and Estrella’s help, I’ll be able to send the entirety of Asharia to the Rift where it’ll be safe. Yin has already done her part so now it’s up to me and Estrella. I’ll be honest, we haven’t even come close to transporting something as big as this into the Rift but first time for everything. Though there might be some shaking as though we’re having an Earthquake." Shiro shrugged while opening the doors to the command room.

  Clearing her throat, she grabbed a mic and linked herself to the public announcement system.

  "Ahem this is Shiro speaking. We will shortly be experiencing some heavy shaking so I advise everyone to stop what you are doing and look around you. You will notice an emergency seat being constructed nearby that will secure you in place to avoid any injuries. If there are not enough seats, press the red tab on the arm rest and another will be created. The shaking will last for roughly 5 minutes." Finishing her sentence, Shiro put down the mic and cut off the connection.

  "Everyone in the control room can stay where you are, I’ll adjust your seats." Shiro called out as the people working in the room nodded their heads and resumed what they were doing.

  "Nan Tian, I want you to keep an eye on the city status while I teleport this place with Estrella. It’ll be hard for me to shift my attention elsewhere so if there is a part that’s going into the red, tell me and I’ll fix it."

  "Mn, got it." Nan Tian nodded while sitting down in front of the control terminal.

  Opening a portal, Shiro teleported to the top of the tower.

  "Estrella, it’s time."

  Materialising next to her, Estrella nodded her head while preparing a tier 6 magic circle.

  With Estrella beginning her preparations, Shiro conjured up several holographic panels along with a tier 7 magic circle that started to expand over the whole of Asharia.

  The anchor that was stationed within her tower started to shine as golden runes appeared around the city.

  Clasping her hands together, a portal started to open in front of Asharia. Sweat dripped down Estrella’s face as keeping a portal of this size open was not easy. The bigger it became, the more mana it consumed.

  However, that burden soon disappeared as Shiro started to transfer her mana to Estrella.

  Looking at the size of the portal, Shiro knew that it was not big enough yet.

  "Focus your mind Estrella, don’t worry about mana usage. I have that covered. Just make it a little bigger and I’ll take it from there."

  Hearing this, Estrella nodded her head.

  Once the portal was big enough, Shiro activated her tier 7 magic circle and hijacked the portal. With the burden now off her shoulders, Estrella looked towards Shiro who was completely composed.

  Countless pillars crafted from hundreds of tier 6 magic circles held the portal in place as Shiro started to control the city.

  Making it fly through the portal, it felt as though an Earthquake was happening.

  Securing herself to the roof, Shiro continued to push the city through. Her mana drained at a visible pace and not even her regen could keep up.

  Drinking mana potions one after the other, it took 8 potions before she could finally squeeze Asharia into the rift.

  Immediately stopping the portal, Shiro sat down and panted heavily.

  Conjuring up a mic, she linked herself to the public announcement system once more.

  "This is Shiro speaking. I apologise for how long that took. The shaking is now over and you may resume what you were doing. Thank you for your cooperation."

  Dismissing the mic, Shiro massaged her neck.

  Looking up at the black and purple sky of the Rift, Shiro decided to add some extra protection just in case.

  Setting it so that the city will automatically be sent out of the void and teleported to a safe location should it be the target of an attack, Shiro turned towards Estrella.

  "When we fight, are you able to seal off the area so that no one can teleport out? That way, we can reduce the chances of them wreaking havoc on Earth." Shiro asked as Estrella thought about it for a moment.

  "It depends. My expertise lies in sending them to my dimension. Unless I’m dragging everyone into my realm, it’ll be hard." Estrella admitted as Shiro furrowed her brows.

  "Then what about me trapping them in my realm and you stopping them from leaving?" Shiro asked as Estrella didn’t have the capabilities of transporting that many people just yet.

  "I’m not sure." Estrella sighed helplessly.

  "Hm…… well no matter. When I drag them into my Throne World they’ll be more focused on surviving than trying to find a way out. If they’re distracted, I’ll end them." Shiro shrugged while standing up.

  "Anyways, let’s go. Everyone will be ready in a few moments." Shiro smiled as the two of them disappeared.

  ###

  "Are you not worried about what’s happening on Earth right now?" Hades asked as Gaia turned towards him.

  "Of course I’m worried. Shiro will be facing someone that could push back the primordials after all. However, I trust that she’ll be able to hold her own. What we need to do right now is to take care of Zeus and the others." Gaia Shook her head as Hades agreed.

  Meanwhile, sitting by the side, Mio had a worried expression on her face.

  It’s been a while since she’s gone back to Earth. As much as she wanted to go back, she couldn’t. After all, she was now a Demi God and had to wait until the second half of the new age. Unlike the gods and primordials, her body would not be able to handle the backlash of descending to Earth.

  [Mio LVL 1000 Demi God of Reapers (Divinity 1)]

  "Don’t worry too much. Your daughter is strong." Nyx smiled while sitting opposite her.

  Seeing what Mio looked like, she had to admit that it was no wonder Shiro was beautiful.

  "I know but a mother can’t help but worry. I hope that when I go back, I can lighten her burden. Seeing her take everything by herself is stressful. I don’t know when there will suddenly be a day where she just breaks down like before. No parent who cares for their child wants to see them like that. Not me nor my husband and especially not her friends." Mio smiled while thinking back to how hard Lyrica, Madison and the others worked in order to keep up with Shiro.

  "True. If the need arises, I will manifest myself on Earth to give her a hand. Even if we lose this battle here, we need to keep Shiro alive after all." Nyx reassured with a smile.

  "Mn." Nodding her head, Mio was about to say something when everyone stopped what they were doing.

  Immediately standing up, they looked towards the sky.

  *KISHHH!!!!

  Lightning flickered through the clouds as a single figure appeared. His aura flared out without reservation while looking down at the gods that had gathered.

  [Zeus LVL 1000 God of Sky and Thunder (Divinity 2)]

  "Zeus, you have quite the guts to face us." Nyx shouted out as the skies darkened.

  "I’ve won the war once before. I can win it again Nyx." Zeus said with narrowed his eyes.

  Slamming his hands together, a tier 8 magic circle appeared around his arms as a giant lightning bolt crackled in his hand.

  Pulling his arm back, he launched it towards the group.

  "Let me deal with this." Mio narrowed her eyes.

  Flicking from her spot, she appeared in the sky as black and red energy wrapped around her sword.

  A red glow appeared in her eyes as she activated a tier 7 magic circle.

  Suddenly, her sword transformed into a giant scythe and cleaved the lightning bolt in half.

  Clenching his fist, Zeus scattered the lightning bolt and fired them all at Mio.

  Sword Skill – Impenetrable Defence!

  The upgraded version of her original sword skill that allowed her to block an attack as long as she could see and act against it.

  Twirling the scythe in her hands, she cleaved apart the lightning bolt and transformed into a swirl of black energy that dashed towards Zeus.

  "I heard that you were quite insulting towards my daughter when you met on Mount Olympus." Mio narrowed her eyes as Zeus blocked her scythe with his arm guard.

  "So what. A mere mortal dared to talk back to a god, I was quite lenient by just insulting her. I should have killed her there and then." Zeus scoffed.

  However, just as he said this, all of the primordials appeared around him. Gaia’s face was cold and so was Nyx’s.

  Twisting her body, Gaia slammed her fist against Zeus’ body, sending him flying through the skies as the other gods belonging to his faction appeared and charged towards them.

  In a single moment, all hell broke loose as tier 8 spells were thrown left and right.
