Chapter 489 - The Great Calamity Begins Part 1

"Kana!" Tilia yelled out as she ran into the throne room. As soon as she heard that Kana was here, she quickly made her way to the throne room to greet her.

"Tilia, it is good to see you are doing well. " Kana smiled as she hugged this sister of hers.

"What brings you here? I figured it would be a long time before I saw you ever again." Tilia really did think she would not see Kana again until she was old and grey, so this was a nice surprise for her.

"I have come with some news and a warning." Kana's voice turned serious. This made Tilia step back and walk over to her throne. She had gone from happy sister mode to queen mode in an instant.

"Let me hear what you have to say." Tilia waved her hand to have her prime minister take notes. She knew for Kana to be serious, it was something major.

"I discovered an advanced city on a landmass untouched by those of the realm of gods. It was hidden away in a deep forest. The thing about this city is that it was transported along with a special cube that was used as a planet core for a race called the Nanoids. Anyway, the issue is not the race but the warning they gave. And the evidence I have found to support it.

"There seems to be a species of insects that devour everything. They go planet to planet and use asteroids to enter the atmosphere in large numbers to begin devouring all things on the planet. It is not clear on just how much they devour, but the Nanoid peoples' planet seemed to have been destroyed since they had to use the planet core they had to destroy the insects.

"But this all corresponds with the things I have found. I have found multiple news clippings about asteroids entering the atmosphere on other planets, and even in the city I discovered the cube in. I have also heard that in many of the magic realms, the research section of Redleaf Academy has also found similar things, and each of these worlds was in ruins. So I must ask you to have them stop bringing items back from worlds unless they have been investigated thoroughly off world. Making sure there is no living thing inside them. " Kana explained.

"I see… Kana, I would like for you to make a trip to Redleaf Academy and speak to Dean William for me. You know the ins and outs of what is going on, so it would be best for you to talk to him, so he understands the situation clearly." Tilia felt this was the best way to handle it since Kana knew what was actually going on.

"Then I will do that. Tilia, you sure have grown in your position. It suits you well." Kana lightened the atmosphere as she said this and smiled at Tilia.

"Please don't tease me! It has been hard, but I have learned a lot. It's just that recently these old fogies keep begging me to take a spouse. But I am not sure I will ever find someone who I can fall in love with. And I refuse to marry for political reasons. I would prefer to let one of my nieces or nephews take the throne after me." Tilia complained. She would only marry if she was truly in love with someone.

"Then find the one you wish to spend your life with. You are the queen, after all. Why not host a gathering and meet with the young nobles. Maybe one of them will strike your fancy. You can take them as your concubine even if you do not love them if you wish to give birth to an heir." Kana knew it was hard for Tilia to think of such things as she was a girl. But as queen, she had to think about the future as well.

"I will think about it…" Tilia blushed. Just thinking of doing 'that' was embarrassing for her.

"I will support you in whatever you decide. I will head over to Redleaf Academy now. Tilia, smile more. You are very pretty. It will capture the hearts of all the handsome men in the kingdom." Kana said teasingly before disappearing, leaving a red faced Tilia behind.

In the Dean's office, Dean Williams was currently clutching his chest, gasping for air due to Kana's sudden appearance. "Are you okay!?"

Taking a few breaths to calm his old heart, he nodded his head as he said: "Miss Kana, you scared the life out of me. You must know I am up there in age now. Anyway, what can I do for you?"

"I have something to warn you about." Kana went ahead and began explaining things.

The more Kana explained this, the wider his eyes got. "This… Hold on a second." Dean Williams pulled out a copper mirror before calling the head researcher a man named Trent to his office. Twenty minutes later, a man in a long white jacket, glasses on his face, and two cat ears on top of his head was standing in the Dean's office. "Dean Williams, this better be important. I was on a major breakthrough."

"Your research can wait! Who do you think pays for it all? Don't get cocky just because you have made a few achievements. You need to listen to Miss Kana here and follow her directions to the last letter. If you do not, you can doom us all." Dean Williams yelled in anger. It was clear as day that he was not happy with how Trent was speaking to him.

"Humph! Fine. Miss Kana, what do you have to sa… Please tell me what you need me to do." After feeling a strong power weight down on him and the cold look in Kana's eyes Trent quickly dropped his arrogant attitude when facing her.

"You need to stop all personnel, students or researchers from bringing items back from magic realms without properly checking them for insects." Kana then went on to explain the situation again.

"This… you say they eat anything right? I think we may have found evidence of this…"
