Bring the whole planet...

Regal looked at Yue, who was testing out the evolution magic. He felt something was off but couldn't pinpoint what or even know why.

He got up and picked up Yue in a princess carry, catching Yue by surprise. He teleported directly out of the dungeon and above the sea of forest.

His heart was boiling with anticipation while his mind buzzed with warnings. Yue hugged Regal, feeling his turmoil and unease. Her mana wrapped around them like a protective cover, but Regal's unease only grew.

Regal let go of Yue and gestured for her to back off. Ophis, in her human form, appeared beside Regal and looked around in confusion. "Danger... from where?" she questioned. Regal patted Ophis's head and dropped to the forest below.

Ophis and Yue followed.

Inside the forest,

Hajime, who was grinning at the Haulia, looked up in caution as he felt the massive amount of mana. He forced his sense up and spotted three figures. Two of them, Regal and Yue, were familiar to him, while the other, Ophis, was not. He let down his guard. "All of you stop your training!" Hajime ordered, making the Haulia tribe that were being trained to the bone limp to the ground.

Shea, who was hung on the tree by Hajime for being annoying, felt the massive amount of mana and writhed to get out of the ropes.

Hajime shot at the ropes, making Shea fall to the ground.

And then Regal started to drop into the forest, making Hajime alert, feeling something was off. "All of you leave this place, go hide," Hajime ordered and headed to the place Regal was dropping at.

Hajime arrived at an open ground and looked at Regal, who was frowning seriously. This made him really uneasy. Regal was undoubtedly the strongest he knew, and for the strongest to have such an expression, Hajime could imagine it.

Regal looked at Hajime and waved at him. "You are here as well," he greeted and then paused, "Right, I was the one that sent you here..." he added as he remembered making Shea take Hajime into the sea of forest.

"Well, yeah. And what's with that serious expression... is something about to happen?" Hajime gloomily asked, as he had a feeling that no matter where he went, he would still be wrapped up in whatever mess was about to happen.

"Sorta... I am not very sure, but whatever it is, it caused me to be uneasy and Ophis to feel danger," Regal answered as he patted Ophis, who had a serious face. Ophis, the loli dragon god who was emotionless, showed seriousness, and that was already enough to put Regal on high alert. But more than that, whatever was going on, he knew he was the target.

Regal looked at Ophis from the corner of his eyes, "We might have to get serious in this matter," he whispered as the space in front of him cracked and Azu stepped out.

Regal stared into Azu's ocean-blue eyes and Azu did the same. "Your Danmachi system and this world's power system will merge..." she mouthed, making Regal confused but accepting.

"So? Is this your plan? Or maybe Ruphas's?" Regal interrogated. Azu seemed to pause for a bit as she wanted to answer that but kept quiet.

"Not important right now..." Azu stated and opened a portal beside herself. "You have two choices... you enter voluntarily or I forcefully take you,"

Regal frowned, hearing, "I want to see how you will forcefully take me," he challenged, making Ophis glare at Azu as her dragon aura started to leak.

"Sigh... I know it..." Azu sighed and walked through the portal, and the portal disappeared.

Regal grew alert as he felt something was off, and something clicked within him. His strength and mana gushed out but stopped the very next moment by Ophis, who contained Regal's mana that had merged with the mana he had gained here.

Regal's Tortus stats and Danmachi's stats merged, and his statue appeared.

Regal deeply frowned. He was only level 7 pinnacle, but now he had crossed to level 8 and went beyond it. He could directly level up to 9 now, but this didn't make sense to him whatsoever.

From what he understood and what he could piece together, Ruphas had planned a battle, and Scathach, being a battle maniac, was a part of it. And him being the strongest, it wouldn't make sense to have a three-way battle, so it was him vs. Ruphas and Scathach. This was a simple conclusion, but that is all on the premise that Ophis, Yue, and his soul rings are accounted for. But Ruphas nor Scathach are the type to plan things outright prematurely. So, Regal was confused and guarded.

"Why give me my power if you want a fair fight...?" Regal questioned. He was really confused about this part the most. Even if he only had his Tortus stats, he would still be able to put up a good fight, and that is without Ophis only.

The sky turned dark. Regal, Yue, and Ophis snapped their heads to look up, and with their unmatched senses, they could see what was going above. "I see what she means by forcefully... I had no say in where I wanted to go or not..." Regal bitterly said.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" Hajime shouted as he looked up as well, his only eye glowing.

"Calm it, kid. You don't need to worry about shit... I am their target, and no one else will be in the crossfire." Regal stated and looked at Yue. "You weren't able to watch us fight the god in Ragnarok... but now you get to see a battle way above that," he grinned.

Yue, hearing this, grew excited. She had already pieced things together and understood that there was going to be a battle. A battle for the sake of battle, no hard feelings, just battle. Plus, she, Regal, Scathach, and Ruphas had learned the resurrection spell from the spell book, so she wasn't worried.

But little did she know this battle was way above the league of that resurrection spell...

Regal looked at the sky, and in the distant space, there was a portal. Azu's portal was big enough to swallow up the whole planet they were on. The portal was perfectly lined up for the planet to enter through, and with Regal's eyes, he could see a little garden through the portal.

An invisible barrier started to appear around the planet but bent above Regal and Ophis, just like how light would bend around a black hole. "Barrier... we are outside of it?" Ophis asked as she felt something on her feet, which was the invisible barrier's extension that had formed when the barrier above was bending.

"Yep, I was wondering where that 300 million system points I had been saving up went to," Regal remarked as his grin turned into a battle-hungry one. "Ophis... from this point on, Scathach and Ruphas are our enemies," he declared, making Ophis nod seriously.

Ophis turned into black mist and began to wrap around Regal, covering him completely.

---Little garden---

"Are you not going to help?" Shiroyasha asked as she sat with folded arms on the ground, looking at the city with annoyance.

"No, too much of a hassle, plus they can handle it," Ruphas replied as she watched the restoration process below.

The gift game that Black Percher started had just seen its final end, and the Salamander community was on its way to restoration.

"I guess you two enjoyed watching, huh?" Izayoi remarked as he walked toward Ruphas and Shiroyasha, Sandora and Black Rabbit following behind him.

"Shut it, brat," Shiroyasha grumbled and looked at Sandora, who was hesitant to speak out. Izayoi raised his brow in confusion, looking at the unusually grumpy Shiroyasha and the stone-cold Ruphas.

"Sandora, Floor Master of the North, I am afraid I will need to leave shortly," she announced as she got up.

Sandora nodded, looking at Shiroyasha's expression that became uglier with each second. She didn't ask what was going on but knew that whatever it was, she shouldn't be asking.

"Hey, what's with the grumpy look? The gift game just ended..." Izayoi's words trailed off as he felt a death glare from Ruphas.

Ruphas got up and looked at Shiroyasha, "Let's go. The real battle is about to begin," she announced, making Shiroyasha stomp the ground in irritation. "Regal isn't an enemy that can by any means be taken lightly," she warned, making Shiroyasha grit her teeth.

"Ugh... why did I decide to participate in this ruse," Shiroyasha whined.

Izayoi frowned. He wanted to ask but couldn't. If it was only Shiroyasha, he would bluntly ask, but when Ruphas was around, he dared not get on her bad side by asking something he definitely shouldn't.

Ruphas looked to the corner where Scathach was leaning on the wall with her eyes closed, meditating. "You ready?" Ruphas asked.

Scathach slightly opened her eyes and glanced at Ruphas, "Been for a while now..." she stated, her expression stone-cold like Ruphas.

Ruphas and Scathach disappeared the next moment, and the sky turned dark.

Shiroyasha floated up, her eyes wide open. "THEY REALLY MEANT IT WHEN THEY SAID IT, BRING THE WHOLE PLANET TO FIGHT!!!" Shiroyasha shrieked in shock as she watched a portal in the sky from which a whole planet was passing through.
