Chapter 217 Grand Change
Chapter 217 Grand Change
The three, being people of considerable power in the galaxy, were, of course, shocked that an existence inside an unknown planet had restrained them to this degree. But, though they were shocked, they needed to act accordingly.
"Now, I shall be the one to ask next." Andre said as he moved towards them, "Who are you, and how are you related to my main body?" He questioned them.
Jeremy was the first one to speak, "I am Jeremy Suarez, Matthias' friend."
"I am Key Rosa, also Matthias' friend." Key went next.
"I am Sana, Disciple of Master Kreis/Key and a Chaos Deity." Sana went last.
"Chaos?" Andre muttered and remembered something. He lifted his hand and released his energy, "Do you know what kind of Chaos energy this is?" He asked.
Key and Sana narrowed their eyes and looked at it. Seconds later, Key gasped, "That's my Chaos Energy! How did you get it?"
"It's yours?" Andre's eyebrows lifted, "Your energy is very powerful. It has even changed mine."
"Of course it would be powerful." Key rolled his eyes, "I was the one who discovered it from the void." He muttered.
"Anyways." Andre changed the topic, "Why are you here?" He asked.
"We saw that the Chaotic Dark Matter that you know seems to be attracted here, so we investigated if this place can become the centerpoint of the battle against the matter." Jeremy replied.
Andre nodded in understanding. He then glanced at Paimon. Paimon knew what he meant by that, releasing the three from their shackles. "I want you to return to your galaxy outside. We can handle the problems here. Do not worry about the Dark Matter because we will fix the matter once we go out."
Having no choice as it was obvious that Paimon is stronger than them, Jeremy, Key, and Sana nodded and left the world, only after giving Andre a way to contact them. Andre then turned to the other three and commanded, "Continue and subjugate the other leaders."
"As you wish, Lord!" The three nodded and flew away.
All around the world, all the leaders have all surrendered under his command. They were all brought up to the Heavens Court as Paimon talked for him, briefing the leaders of their plan that cannot be disobeyed.
The leaders, having been put under pressure of death, only nodded. Andre then looked at another person below, the person that he so wanted to meet; Kaiden Meier, founder of Kepler's Society.
He gazed at him and spoke, "Why are you so against the anomalies, Kaiden Meier?" He asked.
Kaiden, a 40-year old man, raised his head and looked at him, "They ruined my homeland."
"Homeland? As far as I remember, anomalies have been suppressed in this world since 3000 years ago." Andre muttered, but it was heard by Kaiden.
"Yes, in this world." Kaiden nodded, "But it's a different case in my galaxy." He revealed, which startled them.
"You're from another galaxy?" Andre gasped. Kaiden nodded and began, "I came from a galaxy called Alferion. That galaxy was once exuberant with civilization. The Remuen Galactic Hegemony has reached the peak of civilization in all of our galaxy's history. Unfortunately, those pests came."
"A huge chaos broke down when a small dark matter entered the mother system, the center of the galaxy. Micro Neurochips inside the brains of the citizens were controlled and sent shock into their brains. As for those unlucky enough to survive that first attack, AIs rampaged and killed them. The once glorious civilization became nothing but scraps in just a couple of days."
Kaiden then raised his head, his eyes filled with hatred, "I am one of the people who died in the fight against the AI rampagers. I thought I already had no chance to avenge my galaxy, but suddenly, I woke up here. Using the chance that is given to me, I'll make sure that those kinds of entities cease to exist."
Andre nodded in understanding, "Do not worry, Mister Kaiden. The problem would be fixed once we leave this world. We would handle it."
Although Kaiden wanted to object, with his desire to end it all himself, he was facing a godlike being that he can certainly never defeat, so he could only back down. "I hope it's true." He said.
After Andre briefed them of what he desired to be done, there were, of course, a lot who voiced their disapproval, but, faced with Paimon's demonic eyes that would terrify the intestines out of them, they could only nod reluctantly. (A/N: I don't see a normal "scaring the sh*t out of them" fitting for a normal person faced with a powerful Demon, so I just made their intestines come out of their *nuses. Sorry for those that are eating (•?•)
They were then sent back to where they came from and were forced to go back to their daily lives.
Andre also left the court and tracked a friend he made a few months before. "It's been a while, Lord." Ken smiled and greeted him immediately when he saw Andre walking towards him.
"It really has been a while." Andre greeted back. "Are the Aztecs prepared?" He inquired.
"You're going to command the Aztecs?" Ken's eyes sparkled. "You've seen the news, right?" Ken nodded.
"Make them join the Confederacy, and push the Union soldiers back." Andre ordered, "I wouldn't be personally commanding them, so I hope there are capable commanders in your ranks."
"Affirmative, Lord!" Ken nodded respectfully, while Andre turned around to leave.
The next day, the Emperors of Xia and Japan, Kings of Korea and Philippines, and the Raja of India, announced the establishment of the Gaius Confederacy, which was, surprising to the common people, was backed by the Gaius Group and its affiliates.
Since its foundation, Gaius Group has never involved itself with politics and in quarreling of nations. This was the first time since its inception.
On that day, multiple shocking revelations were made to the public. It was revealed that there were only two nations existing, and the newly united nation declared war against the Union. The Aztecs also revealed themselves and declared that they would join the Confederacy and become citizens. The Vatican also announced that they would once again become independent from any nations and would grant support to no one, making the church once again separated from the state.
The people were overwhelmed by the consecutive news, but it wasn't even finished as the Gaius Confederacy struck immediately, with soldiers advancing on all fronts and easily taking Libya and half of Australia by the end of the day.
The events were so quick that the people didn't have the time to react, and when they did, they were stupefied. That went on for three months.
Three months after that day, just like what Andre said, the Union was fully suppressed by the combined force of the soldiers of the Confederacy and the Aztec Magis. The Union stood no chance against them, having no battles won against the Confederate Army. (A/N: I know the term Confederate is a sensitive word for some Americans so I am saying sorry! It's just that I don't know what kind of government I would name it, so I went for Confederacy.)
And after the "bitter struggle", the Union finally admitted defeat, merging itself with the Gaius Confederacy, officially uniting the world of Gaius under one government.
In those three months, the Confederate in the back lines was incredibly peaceful, with the Union having no power to infiltrate its defenses. It was practically an "easy win" for the Gaius Confederacy even though there was no real fight in the first place.
Above the skies of Gaius, Andre looked at the phone in his hand with the name "Jeremy" displayed on it. He then clicked the call button.
The phone only rang, but a minute later, Jeremy, together with Sana, appeared in front of him. "What do you need us for, Mister?" Jeremy asked.
"How do I get out of this world?" Andre asked, which puzzled the two. "Wait, you can't go out?" Sana exclaimed.
"Unfortunately, yes." Andre sighed, "It has been a problem of mine since a very long time ago. It seems that there is a barrier preventing me from going out."
"What could it be?" Jeremy held his chin and muttered as he brainstormed. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, "Do you have a way to contact Matthias?" He asked.
Andre narrowed his eyes. He remembered that he had talked with Matthias in his dream, but he doesn't know how to contact him at will. But, thinking that only he can answer his problem, he reached deep into his soul and looked for a way.
A while later, he suddenly saw something inside his soul, a small sliver of a soul that is similar yet dissimilar to his. He connected to it and he suddenly blacked out.
He reappeared to a place familiar to him; the bar that he went to inside the dream, and where he met Matthias, his source.
