Far across the ocean, beyond the curved horizon where the dome of Suryax faded into the distance, the other four kingdoms had also begun their transformation. Each one, anchored on its own island, had taken a different path, shaped by its strengths, its leadership, its philosophy, and its geneline awakening.

And each one had become something formidable.

To the east, across a stretch of turbulent waters that constantly churned with storm-like currents, lay the domain of the Virexion Dominion.

Even from afar, its presence was unmistakable.

The island was no longer visible as land in the traditional sense. Instead, it appeared as a layered construct of rotating platforms suspended above the ocean, connected by massive arcs of energy that pulsed like veins. The sea beneath it was not calm. It churned violently, as if reacting to the pressure exerted from above.

Entire sections of the island rotated slowly, shifting positions as if the kingdom itself was alive and constantly reconfiguring. Massive structures rose upward like spiraling towers, their surfaces covered in moving panels that opened and closed, revealing arrays of weapons that glowed with unstable energy.

Lightning crackled constantly across the sky above it, not naturally formed, but drawn into controlled pathways that fed into the kingdom’s systems.

Fleets of airborne constructs hovered around it, far more aggressive in design than the Skydread Crafts. These were angular, sharp, built for speed and destruction, leaving streaks of violet light as they moved.

Their army did not stand still.

It surged.

Constant motion, constant pressure, constant readiness to strike.

If Suryax had become a fortress, Virexion had become a storm given structure.

To the north, beyond colder currents and darker waters, lay the Thalmyr Ascendancy.

Where Virexion was chaos harnessed into motion, Thalmyr was precision refined into perfection.

The island appeared calm at first glance, almost deceptively so. Smooth, symmetrical structures rose in layered tiers, forming a city that seemed carved rather than constructed. Every line was clean, every angle deliberate.

But beneath that calm surface lay immense control.

Massive crystalline arrays floated above the city, each one rotating slowly and emitting soft pulses of light that extended across the island. These arrays formed a network, linking every structure, every individual, every system into a unified whole.

Their defenses were not loud.

They were silent.

Invisible barriers shimmered faintly, shifting constantly as they recalibrated. Energy flowed through the city like a perfectly tuned circuit, with no waste, no excess.

Their army stood in formation, but not rigidly. Each unit moved with subtle synchronization, as if guided by a single mind. Their awakened powers manifested in refined forms, weapons that were not flashy but precise, each strike calculated, each movement efficient.

Above them, smaller constructs floated in geometric patterns, acting as extensions of their will, scanning, adjusting, reinforcing.

If Suryax was a war engine, Thalmyr was a perfected system.

To the west, across a region where the ocean itself seemed fractured into overlapping currents and shifting tides, lay the Oblivion Tyrant Sovereignty.

Its presence was oppressive.

The island was darker, its structures jagged and irregular, rising like broken spires from the ground. Black and crimson energy flowed across its surface, pooling in certain areas and erupting in others like controlled chaos.

Massive constructs stood across the island, not uniform, not refined, but powerful. Each one looked different, as if formed through brute force rather than careful design.

The sky above it was not clear.

It twisted.

Dark clouds churned constantly, streaked with flashes of deep red energy that pulsed in irregular intervals.

Their army was not disciplined in the same way as Suryax or Thalmyr.

It was aggressive.

Violent.

Each unit carried an overwhelming presence, its power erupting outward without restraint. They did not stand in formation. They surged, clashed, and tested themselves against each other even within their own domain.

Massive war beasts roamed the outer perimeter, creatures formed from condensed energy and raw power, their forms shifting constantly as if unable to stabilize fully.

If Virexion was a storm, Oblivion Tyrant was destruction incarnate.

To the south-east, across calmer waters that hid dangerous depths beneath their surface, lay the Celestara Sanctum.

Its transformation was the most visually striking.

The island appeared to glow.

Soft light radiated from its structures, not blinding, but constant, like a perpetual dawn. Towers rose in elegant arcs, their surfaces smooth and reflective, catching and amplifying the light around them.

Above the island, floating platforms hovered in layered formations, connected by streams of luminous energy that flowed like rivers in the sky.

Their defenses were layered in light.

Barriers formed and dissolved seamlessly, overlapping in complex patterns that adapted continuously. Their constructs were not heavy or imposing. They were fluid, shifting between forms depending on need.

Their army moved with grace, their awakened powers manifesting in radiant forms. Weapons of light, flowing constructs, and energy fields that both protected and amplified their strength.

Even the ocean around them seemed calmer, though that calm carried an unsettling depth.

If Suryax was a fortress, Celestara was a sanctuary turned weapon.

...

Two days passed by.

It began as a ripple.

Subtle.

Barely noticeable.

Natalia felt it first.

Her Fortune Ballistics Network shifted.

The spheres that had spread across the island’s defensive network began to move faster, their patterns tightening as they recalculated trajectories that had not yet been seen.

"...Contact," she said quietly.

Kayla’s threads reacted instantly, tightening across the network as they extended outward.

"Multiple signals," she confirmed. "Not random. Organized."

Rudra’s gaze lifted.

"Show me."

The projection formed in front of them was drawn from layered inputs across their systems.

The eastern horizon darkened.

Not with clouds.

With movement.

The ocean itself began to churn, massive waves rising unnaturally as something beneath them displaced the water with immense force.

Then they appeared.

Warships.

Sleek.

Angular.

Their surfaces pulsed with violet energy that flickered along their edges like controlled lightning.

They did not drift.

They cut through the ocean.

Behind them, the water split and reformed in violent currents as their fleet advanced in perfect formation.

Above them, aerial units streaked across the sky in sharp, coordinated patterns, leaving trails of light that curved and intersected with precise timing.

The signature was unmistakable.

[Allied Force: Kezryx Void Imperium x Virexion Dominion]

Marcus let out a low breath.

"Already launching an attack on us?"

But before the words could settle...

Another shift.

Natalia’s ballistic alarm snapped again.

"Second vector."

The projection shifted again.

This time, the ocean did not churn.

It distorted.

Darkness spread across the surface, not as shadow, but as presence. The water itself seemed to thicken, as if resisting something that forced its way through it.

Then they emerged.

Massive constructs rose from the depths, their forms jagged, irregular, pulsing with unstable energy. War-beasts moved alongside them, their bodies shifting constantly, unable to settle into fixed shapes.

The air above them warped slightly, bending under the pressure they carried.

[Allied Force: Oblivion Tyrant Sovereignty x Velkarion Dominion]

They did not move in clean formation.

They surged.

Violent.

Relentless.

Unrestrained.

For a moment, the command zone fell silent.

Not from fear.

From clarity.

Two directions.

Two armies.

One intention.

Marcus’s grip tightened slightly around his sword.

"They formed an alliance."

Natalia’s spheres rotated faster, calculations cascading through her system.

"They’ll hit at the same time. Split pressure."

Kayla’s threads pulsed faintly.

"They want us reacting, not controlling."

Lily’s lips curved into a faint smile.

"Then we don’t react."

Almond exhaled slowly, his eyes fixed on the projections.

"They’re counting on the curse, too. They want us to trade losses."

Rudra stepped forward.

Not dramatically.

But decisively.

The space around him settled.

The system aligned. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"We don’t trade," he said.

His gaze moved from one horizon to the other.

"Prepare."

The island responded instantly.

The dome above Suryax brightened, energy flowing through its layers as its defensive matrices activated fully.

The Mega Dreadships shifted formation, rotating into layered positions that covered both vectors of approach.

Skydread Crafts surged into the sky, filling the airspace in dense, coordinated patterns.

The walls pulsed with energy.

Weapon systems aligned.

The army moved.

Suryax Ananta Allied Force did not wait. If they wanted to fight, they will get a fight.

And just then, a news arrived from the Suryax Kingdom’s King.

They were also finding ways to break the artifact’s curse from Almond, and they may have found a way, so they wanted to give it a try.

So Almond promptly left as soon as he got the news.
