Chapter 875 Kingdoms at War: Unveiling Allies from Other Worlds

The king's eyes gleamed with a newfound interest as he absorbed this information. "A Tier V ally who can stand against Tier VI. That's a rare asset, Reign. Your presence might just be the unexpected factor that tips the scales in our favor."

Reign nodded, understanding the potential impact he could have on the war. "I'm here to do whatever it takes to fulfill the evolution challenge. If aiding in the war is what's required, then so be it."

The king, still intrigued, leaned back on his throne. "Very well, Reign. We shall work together to devise a strategy. The Elais Kingdom won't expect us to have such an ally, and we'll use that to our advantage."

"Firstly, you should meet the others." The king said as Reign glanced with confusion.

"Well, we were not fully honest before either."

"You are not the only person that was suddenly called over here for his evolution challenge, in fact, there are 7 others that have arrived, and who knows, there might be more that still haven't found their way here, or are keeping a low profile." The king said before the large door of the royal hall opened and 7 figures entered.

The entrance of the seven figures drew the attention of both Reign and Athlaston. These newcomers, like Reign, appeared to be individuals summoned from different worlds for their evolution challenges. The air in the grand hall became charged with a mix of curiosity and uncertainty.

The first among the newcomers was a woman with silver hair and eyes that seemed to hold the wisdom of ages. Her presence exuded a calm and composed demeanor, and she carried an air of authority. Next to her stood a man with a cloak that seemed to shift in color, blending with the surroundings. His eyes, however, revealed a sharp intelligence that didn't miss even the slightest detail.

The third person was a towering figure, a heavily armored warrior with a massive greatsword strapped to his back. His gaze was stern, and the scars on his armor spoke of battles fought and survived. Alongside him was a petite figure, a girl with vibrant green eyes that seemed to sparkle with mischief. She wore a mischievous smile that hinted at a playful nature.

The fifth newcomer was a man with a hooded cloak, concealing most of his features. The air around him seemed to ripple with an enigmatic energy. Following him was a tall and elegant woman with flowing red hair, carrying an aura of grace and determination. Last in line was a young man with a staff, his eyes filled with an intensity that hinted at formidable magical prowess.

Reign observed the group, recognizing the diversity in their strengths and backgrounds. The king rose from his throne, gesturing for the newcomers to step forward. "Reign, allow me to introduce the other individuals who, like you, have been called to aid us in this war."

"All of you have the same evolution challenge, and that is to help us win the war." The king said with a smile as the 7 started introducing themselves.

The silver-haired woman stepped forward, offering a nod of acknowledgment. "I am Seraphina, a Guardian from the world of Eldorias.

The color-shifting man followed suit. "Call me Solis. I come from the realm of Illonaris, where reality is but a canvas for the mind's artistry."

The heavily armored warrior spoke in a deep, resonant voice. "I am Gideon, from Valoria."

The playful green-eyed girl giggled before introducing herself. "I'm Lumi, a Trickster from the land of Whimsy Haven."

The hooded figure's voice was a whisper carried by the wind. "You may call me Siabas, from the shadow of Olastir."

The elegant woman with red hair spoke with grace. "I am Elara, a mage from Aetheria."

The young man with the staff offered a determined gaze. "I'm Theron, a Scholar from the ancient realm of Arcanum."

Reign nodded in acknowledgment, realizing that each of them brought unique skills and perspectives to the table.

"Reign, from Earth."

Upon hearing the name 'Earth', Seraphine, as well as Theron, both took another glance at Reign.

"Apologies, by Earth, might you mean the newly discovered world that has been taken over by the alliance?" Theron asked Reign, to which the others responded by taking a second look at him.

A newly discovered world.

It was not that common to come across people from such worlds, especially not considering the fact that almost all of them came from worlds that had been integrated by the system a long time ago.

"Yes, the system arrived on my planet a couple of months ago, to be honest, I've even lost track of time, so I don't know how long has passed exactly since it arrived."

[ Approximately 8 months and 15 days have passed. ]

"Ah, well there we go, 8 months have passed."

Upon hearing Reign again, they all took another look at him, a longer one this time.

Coming across people from newly discovered worlds was rare, but to come across a peak Tier V being who was doing his evolution challenge after only being integrated by the system for 8 months?

That was much rarer.

"Fascinating, if you wouldn't mind, could we talk about your planet later?" Theron asked as he had already taken out a thick book and was writing things down.

"Sure, why not." Reign said before Gideon suddenly came up to him.

"How strong were you before the system?"

"Excuse me?"

"When the system arrived, what tier were you in?"

"Ah, I see." Reign suddenly chuckled.

"I was level 1, as were almost all of the people of my world."

"The existence of mana was only known to a few before the system arrived, and I was not one of them."

Gideon and the others all slightly widened their eyes upon hearing Reign speak, and Gideon merely nodded his head at him.

"You are more than worthy enough to be a member of this group then, I look forward to fighting alongside you, Reign." Gideon offered his hand to Reign who smiled and shook it, upon which both men clenched their hands with as much strength as they could.

"A strength-based fighter?" Gideon asked as both he and Reign still had smiles on their faces.

"No, not really."

"I'm more balanced, but strength would be only third when it comes to how many points I have in it compared to other stats." Reign said, which made Gideon nod his head.

"Talented and powerful, slightly arrogant, but your strength is enough for the arrogance to be more akin to confidence." Gideon then let go of Reign's arm, and nodded at him again, before walking back to the others.

They were all slightly shocked at the display of strength that took place. They had all met up recently, and although none of them had gone through the same thing that Reign had, there was a reason for it.

They all came from older worlds and it was obvious that they were experienced and powerful. Reign, however, came from a new world, and he just claimed he reached the peak of Tier V in only 8 months, which was quite unusual.

Of course, there were plenty of reasons for that, and his talent was one of them. The other reasons were simple, it was because Earth was just integrated by the system, and for a new world, there were many more opportunities present compared to the older ones.

Plenty of times, people had to go to other worlds in order to increase their strength as there were not a lot of monsters present in their worlds, and the area they were in was a peaceful one.

They merely wished to check if Reign would not hold them back, and this simple little test that Gideon had decided to do was enough for them.

Gideon actually had higher strength compared to Reign, and it was also his third-highest stat, with endurance and vitality being the top two. He was similar to Tank, a knight who fought valiantly and defended others with his powerful body, large shield, and heavy armor.

The reason Gideon was surprised was that Reign did not seem as a type that fought using brute strength alone, and yet he had so much of it. When looking at Reign, for some reason, Gideon had a feeling that the young man could fight utilizing many different forms of combat, akin to a jack of all trades.

Clap!

The king suddenly clapped his hands together with a smile before nodding at the 8 people in front of him.

"We have received news that the kingdom of Elais has also been surprised with an influx of people from other worlds appearing."

"In the near future, we will not be fighting only against the enemy we know well, but against people like yourselves."

"I do not believe in coincidences, especially not ones like the one that has seemingly presented itself right now."

"If my guess is correct, you have been given the task of helping us win the war, but there are others who were given the same task, only that they need to help the kingdom of Elais win."
