The Class S System Lobby

“The Empress of Twilight has broken out of her Domain,” the Judge of the Order declares, his voice echoing throughout the lobby filled with numerous Class S hunters. “In a mere three days, she has already spread her territory throughout the entire planet, claiming it as her own. She has turned every elf that used to call the planet home into twilight monsters who serve her. The Unique Monster must be dealt with as quickly as possible before she grows more powerful.”

“The Magic Towers will offer Class A mages to aid in the subjugation,” Richard Vellan, the Master of the Magic Towers, declares with his hands held behind his back and an expressionless look on his face.

“Her Esteemed Majesty has decided that the Hive will send ten Royal Guards,” Kch’trl declares before immediately leaving without another word. Having already shared his queen’s will with the other rulers on the council.

The various rulers of the council with the highest authority in the universe begin discussing how many forces each nation will bring to the subjugation. Because it’s absolutely necessary for as many powerful forces to join as possible.

Unlike with when it’s inside of the Unique Domain itself, the Unique Monster has no special materials to make it easier to fight when outside of the Domain. Making it far more difficult to defeat when it is not inside of its Unique Domain.

And since the Unique Monsters grow faster than any other creature, it won’t be long before the Empress of Twilight reaches Class A. Followed by Class S after that.

There have been times in the past when the various nations refused to lend aid simply due to the Unique Monster at the time being far away from them. But that led to the creation of the Demon King’s Domain and the Land of the Dead. Two Class S nations ruled by Unique Monsters that were left alone for too long and are now terrorist nations at war with everyone.

Even the Hive itself was originally created by a Unique Monster, the Hive Queen, making one of the most powerful nations in the universe.

Unlike the other two, though, the Hive works together with the other nations. Despite their warmongering nature.

So a treaty has been set for all nations signing the treaty to provide aid to the subjugation of newly born Unique Monsters.

All to protect the universe from new threats.

The only forces that never signed the treaty are the Tower of Chaos and the Tower of Sin. Both of whom love new sources of chaos in the universe.

And while the Tower of Sin refuses to help because the Primordial of Sin supports the Demon King Unique Monster and even made the Demon King a Successor, the Tower of Chaos is simply the most ancient of all universal powers. Following one of the most ancient amongst the Primordials aside from the Primordial of Time.

Chaos.

After all of the leaders in the council announce the quantity of their aide to the subjugation mission, the Judge declares, “The Empress of Twilight has shown very little interest in peace, so the subjugation will occur as soon as possible.”

“Would you mind explaining the specifics?” the Sil Gray King asks.

The Judge turns his gaze onto the king as he answers, “The Empress of Twilight views other sentient beings as nothing more than targets for corruption. She has already declared her intent to conquer every planet and corrupt them into the age of twilight.”

One ruler after another asks more questions while the Judge answers them. All the way until the Judge finally leaves the lobby. With the other rulers leaving soon after.

Then the Primordial of Chaos appears in the lobby with a slightly amused look on his face.

“This’ll be interesting,” Chaos says with his arms crossed.

And, more importantly, it’ll distract everyone from Ashley. Leaving her more in peace without others bothering her as much.

With that thought, he leaves the lobby to refocus on Ashley’s antics as she enters the Class C lobby to search for an official game to join.
