"Lord Drizzt, may I have a word with you. I have some information that you would like to know. All my evil pieces have been returned to me. Meaning all my servants have been killed. Can you please take revenge for me?" Cleria asked. Drizzt looked at her for a bit. "I'll take care of it. Don't worry about it. I don't like the fact that they attacked your servants. That was an indirect attack at me. I want all of the information you got on this group." It took her 3 weeks to get all the information. Now it's time to present it to her god. Cleria starts to head to Drizzt office in the temple. She could see more people move around. It has become a very popular place for people to visit. Even if they do believe in Drizzt.

Kocking on the door, she waited for him to respond. "Come in." Cleria walked into his office when she heard that. "I have the information that you asked of me. The group is bigger than what I thought it was." Drizzt took the paperwork from her and began to read it. Meanwhile, a group of people showed up outside of the Temple. " Are you sure this is the place, Cassie? it doesn't look like much, and we only get one chance at this."Bella asked their leader. They have been traveling a long way and did not want to take any chances. For their enemies fighting them and throwing them back into prison. Drizzt fell them as they moved closer to the temple. He was a little confused as it was late at night. most visitors they have gotten come early in the morning and leave around 6:00 p.m. Letting Cleria know that they're about to have company. They told her to let the others know. He sat there waiting for his high priest and priestesses to let him know what was going on.

Shuri Himejima was looking at the group of people. Who just showed up at the temple. "Who are you? Why have you come to the temple so late?" As she waited for them to respond. Her fellow priest came out to stand with her. Cassie the leader of the group set forward. "We have heard of your god and would like to join him. We have been cast aside by everyone else. He is our last hope to get vengeance. A place to live in peace and a chance for a future." Shuri and Masomi both smile and led them into the temple. As a group followed the two priests and to the temple. They noticed a few people looking at them. When I got to the main room of the Temple. They saw a young man standing in front of an altar.

Masomi turned around to the group. "This is our god Drizzt. The god of Conquest. My Lord this group of people want to join the temple and be your followers." Drizzt looked at them and seeing that they are sincere. He decides to give them a test. He also notices that his other followers have coming to the room. "I'm happy that you would like to join me. I have devised a new test for my followers. It's simple I'm going to place you all under a spell. All you have to do is overcome your weakness and I will send you fully. I have no time for fake people. Who do not understand the meaning of the word Conquest. Anyone who has second thoughts may leave now. There will be no turning back after I cast a spell." Cassie looked at her friends to see if anyone wanted to back out. Seeing none of them would back down she turn back to look at the god of Conquest. "We accept your test and be glad to show you what we're made of." Drizzt just smiled and looked at them. Issei, Cleria, Kuroka, Masomi, and Shuri join the group. They where all standing in the middle of the Temple. It made him happy that his other followers would take the test also. Not wasting anymore time he said the spell. Watching them disappear from the temple. He knew they will come back changed.

Meanwhile in the Underworld. The old Satan faction was meeting trying to figure out ways to undermine the new government. They had already joined the chaos Brigade, but those plans were moving a little too slow for them. Katerea Leviathan was going over some reports. She was not happy with the fact that several of her top servants were missing. Narrowing down to their last mission. She decided she was going to check out the location for herself.

Temple

Katerea appeared out of a magic circle in front of the Temple. As it was late at night there was no one around. She walked up the steps of the Temple. Keeping alert just in case anything goes down. When she opened the door she was greeted by an unexpected site. There were several people kneeling with a glowing light of both their heads. Sitting in front of the altar was a young man who looked to be in his 20s or 30s. " Where are all my men at? They were last seen here are you responsible for their disappearance?"

Drizzt just looked at her. Needed other things to worry about than some devil throwing a temper tantrum. Before she could do anything stupid. He let go of his power bringing her to her knees. "You have two choices Devil. One you can turn around and leave while I'm in a good mood. Or two I'll make you submit to me and you will be my slave forever." Katerea could not believe what she heard. She could feel the power of the young man. In the back of her mind she could feel that he was serious, but her arrogance as a pure-blooded devil. Would not let her back down. Staring at him defiantly she prepared to attack. Only for her to hit her knees and pass out. In front of the overwhelming power Drizzt release. " By my authority as a god of Conquest. I conquer your soul you should be my slave for all eternity."

With that being said Drizzt no longer paid attention to her. Leaving her passed out on the floor where she lie. He was more concerned with his true followers. Waiting on them to finish their test. Knowing that when they come out of this test they'll be a lot stronger. From the look of things it looks like his force will be needed soon.

Issei Trial Tower

Issei was just getting over the welcome speech. He heard in his God's voice. In front of him was a large Tower. On the tower it read face your fears and overcome. Walking up the steps he entered the first level of the Tower. A bright light flashed and he had to close his eyes for a few seconds. When he opened his eyes he was taken back to the day he lost his parents. I seen what really caused them to die. At first he was scared. Then he got angry if only he had the power to attack. He would save his family. Shaking his head to clear his thought. He rushed forward and grabbed a chair swinging it at the Fallen Angel who caused his parents death. As he swung the chair a red Gauntlet appeared on his left hand. He heard in a loud voice.BOOST!!!! The chair that he was holding glowed and swing faster. Instantly killing the the Fallen Angel who was attacking his parents. The feeling of Happiness overcame him. He was happy he was able to save his family. When he went towards his parents the light flashed again. He was back in the tower.

You have passed the first level. Their food and refreshments at the end of this level. You can eat and rest to restore your energy. After you have rested please continue to challenge the tower. Continue to grow strong. Do not let your fear overcome you.

Issei took a minute to understand what was being said. He felt a lot stronger than when he first came into the tower. Looking down at his red gauntlet. He knew something had changed. As long as it helped him become stronger. He welcome the change. Moving along towards the stairs to lead up to the next level. He saw a bed food and water. He now had a better understanding of the trials. His Lord wanted him to become strong, but also wanted him to rest and take his time.

Cleria Trial Tower

Cleria looked around. She was surprised at being transported to another location. Quickly she got herself together. Walking up the stairs to the first level of the Tower. She knew she had a lot to face. Making sure her mind was right she stepped forward to see what the tower will show her. A bright light flashed, and she found herself standing before her parents. After listening to them telling her how much of a disgrace she is. How she brought their family down, and the fact that they're happy that she is dead. Cleria was at first sad. Then she thought about what was going on. She stood firm. Saying that she's proud of what she's done. The fact that she had the courage to stand up to those older devils. If they do not want her to be their daughter. She would not claim them as her parents.
