"General Juls! We have bad news... We couldn't find the liege, he wasn't in his room nor anywhere near the castle. Even the 3 division generals have tried to find him with several methods, but each couldn't reveal the location of the liege." A vampire stormed in as he kneeled and explained.
"Hmmm, I understand you can leave." Juls responded as he closed his eyes and began to think.
'For fucks sake! Where are you?! You are already gone for a whole month!
Sigh... What should I do? The moon tribe and death tribe disappeared; even Sauron couldn't find out how they disappeared. And that isn't even the worst thing... The Reiland Kingdom has mobilized its soldiers, and rumors see going around saying they have abandoned the empire.
And we may have to change locations since the forest isn't safe anymore... The Reiland Kingdom will most likely try to conquer the dungeon...
What a shitty timing...'

"Oh, you are already awake ?" A dark voice asked Elendur while he felt the same warm energy that wrapped around his body before.
Elendur then slowly opened his eyes as he rose. He then stepped back and asked:
"I am not trying to be rude, but who are you?" Even though he didn't know what was going on, he knew that he was in an unfortunate situation.
'Tch, I don't know how much time passed, and not only that, this warm feeling... I can't feel the usual cold death essence inside of my body...'
"Young one, you don't have to be so on guard, why don't you sit down?" The older man then responded with an innocent smile.
"Alright." Elendur responded, knowing he's already in a disadvantageous position; he didn't care anymore and sat down. As he did, he then asked again:
"Is this a part of the trial ?"
The older grinned and responded:
"You're right, indeed."
Elendur then nodded as he continued:
"So since you could give me a proper answer, I guess you are part of the first trial. So may you tell me what the first trial is going to be?"
"Oho! Young one, your patience is really limited, isn't it? Then may I ask you: what do you know about the gods of the 5 realms?" The older man asked in a curious tone while looking at Elendurs fragile body.
"Well, I know that there are 12 gods and some other gods, even though I have no idea of their powers or how the order of gods is." Elendur responded as he recalled some memories of the past.
"Well then, may I show you the order of gods. The so-called "Erylsium."
There are the High Monarch Gods or no... The absolute powers, Seras of the Chaos and Raphael of the Athos, have created the 12 Gods of Law.
These 12 gods have each a law that is keeping the five realms in balance.
That was the first order of gods. And the second-order of gods includes over 100 gods.
As you notice there is a big difference between these two orders. The reason for that is the power gap between these forces."
"One question, old man, how is the power gap so big? Aren't they all gods? Of course, these 12 gods were created by the absolute powers, but how strong are the 12 gods of the first order?"
"This is an excellent question, and you may be surprised, but you cannot scale the powers of the first order..." The older man responded wistfully.
"But why? Are they so strong? Or does it have a other reason? I thought there would be some kind of power scaling system even among the gods..."
"Well, the actual reason is that their power is
Boundless."
