What Makes A Behemoth Monster?

Janae didn't seem that surprised when Inian voiced his doubts to her.

"I know what you mean Inian. When I was captured, I was treated very fairly. They made me doubt my actions, and they made me doubt you."

She paused for a moment to think, "I trust my gut, however, and my gut is telling me that the remaining descendants are still evil, and I still believe we should fight them."

Janae looked to Inian with comforting eyes and Inian nodded, "okay. Then we'll fight them. The only thing is that these monsters are behemoth level monsters, and they are on a whole different power level than the last two titan level monsters we just faced. I need to figure out a way for me to get to the behemoth level."

Janae thought for a moment, "you've told me before that you've seen visions of the first king, do you think there may be any clues as to how you can reach the behemoth level?"

"I'm not sure...maybe? I don't have the ability to get those visions anymore. I just know I can't, so I will have to try and remember something."

Janae smiled, "well, there's no rush right now. Take some time to think; we should almost be back to Irigia."

Janae left Inian standing on the observation platform.

He sighed and stared at the passing terrain whipping by.

"Now where should I start?"

He thought back to those encounters in his visions when he saw the wolf-king. He remembered an earlier meeting where the wolf king wanted to show him a slice of his power as a behemoth. The old king called down meteors from the sky to rain down on all the land that surrounded them.

'Maybe it is like titan level abilities but on a larger scale?' He thought.

He continued thinking on different topics until he could see the many mechas patrolling the outside of Preah.

The train rode straight through to a temporary structure built specifically to house the battle train.

A couple of guards were there to welcome them, "welcome heroes!" They cheered.

"Will I always be greeted by some kind of armed force?" Inian asked as he stepped off the train.

Burt nodded and stated matter of factly, "It's a protocol for emissaries of other nations, and you are a unique person. You have the strength of a small nation all by yourself, so you will get special treatment wherever you go."

Inian sighed, "okay, let's go to the castle then.

The trio followed the guards back to the castle where the gears were whirring and the sound of metal scraping on metal could be heard.

Something different this time was that instead of regular guards, there were two automatons stationed out front. They looked the exact same as the ones that they took to fight the descendant, except these ones, were colored bright red.

The guards walked up to it, and the automaton asked, "name...and...Identification...number."

One guard responded, "Harvey, number 6341. I am here with Leon, number 8362 and three top-clearance guests of the Queen's."

The machine paused for a moment before it said, "confirmed...you...may...enter."

Janae was highly intrigued, "when did they switch the gate guards for automatons?"

Burt shrugged, "pretty sure they changed it while we were gone. Before we left, I heard that the Queen wants to use automatons as the backbone in the armed forces."

Janae's eyebrows raised up high, "wow, that will really change things."

It didn't take long for them to make it to the meeting room within the castle, and there the Queen was surrounded by a dozen talking advisors.

Inian walked in, "what's going on?"

Queen Irigia looked up with fury in her eyes, "YOU are what's going on Inian. With all the destruction you've caused, the Ranid Kingdom is in complete disarray, and what's worse is the new ruler of the Trostan kingdom decided to assault Ranid because they are so weak. Ranid will be annexed by them. What's worse is that they've been expanding their military." She paused and moved closer to Inian and got in his face, "they are almost as strong as the Empire is now. In such a short time too! The Trostan Kingdom will get to us first if the descendants to kill us."

Inian was shaking from the Queen's outburst, "I...I'm sorry. I truly am..."

All of the Queen's advisors were glaring at Inian, but Burt and Janae stood in front to shield him from their harsh glares.

Inian thought back to what Marc had said over a year ago, how if he didn't unite the world, then history would repeat itself, and the slaughter would just continue.

The Queen huffed in anger, "the whole world is going to be in chaos because of the actions of one! It's complete chaos!"

Inian's eyes suddenly lit up, "that's it!!"

Every head turned to face him, but he ignored them and turned to face Janae, "that's the difference between a behemoth level and a titan level. A titan level can effect whatever terrain he is in, but the behemoth can affect the whole world!"
