"In my delusions I thought of myself as ae, as someone high and mighty that no other pare to, crafting vessels to ferry the stars I traveled the universe beyond any other before me, only to find out how small my view really was"               -Unknown human mortal

  South - western most point of the Vast tree universe, location of the great rift where the camity of corruption has been temporarily isoted.

  Here what remained of the united army held firm while most had abahe fight. Even after the traitor of the spiritual realm Lord Ophenion unched a relentless assault from behind these spirit cultivators fought to defend the spiritual realm to the bitter end.

  The nearby gaxies had scattered like dust in the wind, stars had been blown as shattered yet these spirit cultivators did not abandon the fight. The scale of this war was simply beyond a single being's imagination, the dead alone could create several gaxies worth of nothing but the corpse's of the fallen.

  "Are we ready?" A slender figure with many wood-like horns spoke.

  "Almost" a being with four arms replied.

  From the south came beasts on a scale no lesser than a p hauling stars ected by s 17 million kms long. Every single one of these gargantuaures was armoured by yers of stone and steal, while the space surrounding them was covered by a thick yer of id dust stopping the heat of the stars from reag them.

  "Now we are ready" the four armed being picked up a gree.

  "Let's send these monstrosities to oblivion!" Another voice from afar said.

  Ahead of them the void of space burned e-yellow with what seemed like dust clouds c spa all dires, the group of spirits traversed space at speeds that would be seen as hen teleportation to the uneducated mind.

  Only the best of each spiritual race/species had beeo fight this war, if one could not traverse the stars like walking on nd than they were less than useless. More so if one did not have some sort of teleportation skill or device at this level it would be the joke of the millennia.

  To fight in this war one had to be hen a god-like being in all but name.

  "Send in the fire beas!"

  "Get ready for the shockwave, the moment it hits activate the barrier"

  Hidden in the dust of far of space shadows flickered, the group of invaders was being surrounded from all sides.

  The beas resembling nterns pulsed releasing a shockwave that atomized all nearby objects causing a white fsh to follow the path of the shockwave. The shadows hidden in the dust recoiled being blurry as if taking damage.

  "Now ighe stars!"

  The beasts pulling the stars roared as the sudden stop uhe stars i dires.

  "The moment the stars burst, strike them down!"

  The shockwave from the beas finally reached the location of the beasts and almost instantaneously a bubble like barrier activated proteg them from the shockwave.

  At the same time after the barrier went up a shadow covered one of the p like beasts, the barrier reacted strongly pushing the shadoroteg those inside.

  From the silence of space the sound of a million birds chirping reached the ears of all, the stars unched into the distance deformed, pressed, expanded into a thin tower, then an explosion that made light no different then a sharp nce pierced all the surroundings.

  Shadows stretched and deformed nearly tearing themselves apart as the light pervaded nearby space f darkness back.

  "The light will provide us will approximately three minutes, if we ot kill them by then we must at least drive them back"

  The four armed being started to glow like moonlights, with a step he teleported outside the barriers prote. A nce much like the earthly one's pierced a struggling shadow impaling it without force.

  'Just like swinging at open air, let's hope no bodies e'

  The surrounding space had turned into a hell-scape with little to no visibility, shadows refleg of whatever dust remained created false illusions as the shadoeared to be closer theruly were while space had caught fire even if only for a moment.

  "Retreat! Seal off this passageway" seeing time was almost up the four armed being ordered a retreat.

  The beaagically returo their owners side no longer pulsing as they once were. Those attag the shadows uhe cover of dying stars ceased their as aurned with haste uo the cover provided by the beasts.

  A group of cloaked cultivators far away from the fighting prepared for their return, the moment the st soldier ehe barrier the beasts ran for the exit.

  "Ohe sealing is done we have been given orders to retreat. You've all done an excellent job! From here on out your fate is your own"

  "If we retreat now how long do we have? As in the universe mean"

  "...Less then 100 years. No. It's more accurate to say that's the hope anyway. You've all experienced fighting the camity, nothing ever goes as pnned"

  Just as it was said a massive skeletal figure dashed out from the fire and dust ung itself towards one of the beasts furthest back quickly tearing into the barrier with little effort. Those inside had no time to react as the skeleton shattered into a thousand pieces that shredded those inside.

  The beast being thousands of time rger then the skeleton figure suffered minimal damage but the shattered bone fragments wriggled like worms towards any exposed flesh threatening to e it from the i.

  The others watg from afar did not try to intervene simply hastening their retreat.

  "Five seds, three, two, one Now!"

  A pink fsh, a burst of light, the spaearby turned white closing of the st remainirance of the great rift. It wouldn't stop the expansion of the the rift but it bought time.

  <+==  Educational Lore  ==+>

  The physical realm ot survive without the spiritual realm(metaphysical) for it the home of the soul and the path to reination, the spiritual realm oher hand . However the spiritual realm ot grow without the physical realm, for only through living life does the soul expand.

  Spirits may accumute spiritual energy to grow stronger but the energy is finite. Much like the suo produce limitless amount of light it will eventually burn out. While the current universe may seem to have an infinite amount of spiritual qi, that is only due to the vast amount of time the Vast tree universe has existed.

  When a being dies its soul leaves the fines of the body and as such is no longer bound to a limited size. As the soul expands outwards it leaves some of itself behind, this residue no longer a part of the soul goes back to the earth as life force to once again rejuvehe nd. The soul however tio expand greedily without restraint, it is then that a limit is reached. When the soul o longer expand it will defte much like a balloon leaving nothing but ay soul without memory of the past.

  As for the memories lost, they are the true prize. For here the universe treats information like energy(food) it will treat each piece as equally as the st, no matter how mundane or epic it may be, it will be nothing more then a new vector of information to help 'grow' the universe.

  As suew energy is created for every soul lost, while it may not amount to much at first given enough time and enough lives a single spark will eventually e together as one.

  The Beast ti of [Sun reach] deep ihe southern dire of the Vast tree universe, was one of eight primordial wild nds that birthed the demonic beasts of the vast tree realm.

  It was one of eight primordial wild nds and one of only three that still remained. Having gohrough innumerable wars over it's trol and ging hands tless times the current rulers of this ti had tur into a pseudo holy nd for only the demonic beasts.

  Tens of billions now marched from one end of this tio the other, from the rgest titan size behemoths c mountain ranges with a siride to those as small as a mouse. Without ting those too small and numerous to at for, all life headed in one dire. The western most point of the ti! Here a ce to get a spot on the - Heavenly beast ark - a gargantuan ship of over 2.5 million Kms was underway.

  Its scale was beyond belief, from afar it looked no different then a miniature version of the Sun Reach spirit ti itself. The spiritual ti being 25 billion kms in just length made this singur ship a thousandth of the size of the true ti, an achievement that would make history under normal circumstances.

  Above this colossal ship two simir sized vessels y in waiting, each of these mega arks had a minimum of three yers with the fg ship having five yers, the Sun reach ti had been razed for everything of worth to the point that even the spiritual nature of the ti was on the brink of total colpse.

  Floating all around these gargantuan arks beasts that could only be described as living moons protected each ark from any threat that may near. Below, titans carrying ps on their backs surrouhe arks ready to use their bodies as living shields should anything near.

  Each ark equiped with the fi of onry with no expenses spared, a single volley from these vessels capable of renderiire gactic clusters uninhabitable if not ht annihited. For most such firepower would be enough, but for those god-like beings it was simply sidered a warning shot.

  Even if such beings approached the vessels, did they not have such beings of their own? Of course they did.

  Demonic beasts were tougher then normal beings, they did not have a cycle of reination like that of other beings, they had one ce at life, as such they were giveer gifts at birth then all others.

  From strength, speed, longer life spans, to natural instincts unmatched by other beings, they were favored by the heavens as the true iors of spiritual Qi. It was only through the intervention of beings known as the aral gods that other races gaihe ability to use spiritual Qi.

  For a period of time demonic beasts ruled the universe and fought using only their heaven given might but as time passed and the onry of these other spiritual races became more lethal they had to adapt.

  The demonic beasts not profit in crafting treasures learned what they o overcame the gap in knowledge that they had overlooked for billions of years, demonic beasts once brought down by sword and spear no longer had weaknesses from ck of treasures even being some of the most profit in crafting treasures.

  Now iime of most dire heir efforts paid off.

  Billions of species, each with different enviroal requirements erritories of certain sizes with various temperature zoo mimic reality. Without suviros to call home even if these beasts escaped the destru of the universe they would go mad if all they saw was a ay chamber with no hope of ever seeing the outside world again.

  Since every ark had to aodate tens of thousand of enviros they had be the most advanced arks they could possibly craft, from the most obscure of detail, to the most plex geographical terrain, to even adding spaations that could increase the total ndmass, these arks were prefe the eyes of many.

  Yet even with such methods at best they will only enpass ohird of the inal enviros of the Sun Reach ti as even if space was avaible it would not be stable beyond a certain limit. To sustain a spiritual ti was no easy feat after all, let alone an artificial one.

  In the end only ohod could alleviate the worries of the demonic beasts, a battle royal.

  Otle, one ce at life, one loser at the mercy of the victor!

  The winners would get to ehe ark and cim a territory for themselves, as long as no one has cimed it first of course.

  These winners would then bring demonic beasts of their owories to inhabit the area thereby giving huo thousands of weaker species a spot on the Arks by default albeit with less rights.

  A natural food would be made this way allowing for a tinuously replenishing enviro for those at the top to feast on.

  Of course several fws presehemselves with this method, the first being that no two winners of the same species was guaranteed which could cause problems down the desdant lihe sed problem was extreme ageism.

  Demonic beasts did not cultivate the same way other spirits did, they naturally absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy without much thought and given enough time they got old and strong while the younger geions would be suppressed and culled thereby ting the rule of the old geions for extended periods of time but because of this when an old ruler 't grow further or dies in battle it often times leads to one's own species getting culled with no oo defend them.

  Normally not a real problem since as long as aerritory lord of the same species exists somewhere a new lord be born, but if there is only one winner? Do the desdants keep the territory or it be taken away after the previous ruler dies? What if there are no det's?

  Certain rules had to be made that split the territory between a male and female pairs, they didn't have to be paired together but multiple pairs of the same species is a must. Two of eaOT_ including the wihe winner would get the majority of the earerritory as was their right.

  If a species reproduced through any other means outside of a male female pair, adequate ges will be made.

  These smaller territories grao the winners 'kin' would be made in mirror realms, small pockets of space that are self tained in objects or enviros that allowed for refles to form. This would allow freater ces of a species survival as two winners of the same species are not guaranteed.

  Should an old territory lord die, a tribunal will be held to determine if those of the same species are worthy or not of retaining the territory, upon which the oute will be honored by the surrounding demonic beast lords.

  The battles for entry bee intense and desperate but no one backed dowually all spots would be filled and the loading of materials and pig of enviros would begin, with any inplete enviros would be stored away for the future.

  Demonic worlds were generally more massive then many spirit worlds and tis, such that the amount of rare heaven ah treasures were plentiful and never g.

  Demonic beasts which did not settle down or ran solo due to their nature also participated with different goals in mind, these demonic beast would be granted access to an ark upon rendering their service for a specified time, any children born before or after entering the ark were expected to be grandfathered in to servitude all the same.

  No different than meraries for hire, they were given little and expected to give their all.

  Should o like it, well they just die, no os a free ride.

  A wandering demonic beast was currently taking upon himself a challe upon by one of the five Ark lords on the fg ship - Wanderi - this demo was ne only 6m long and 3m tall, looking like a leopard with a red coat of fur.

  This demonic beast was truly fast avoiding every obstacle sent towards it and as the test progressed the difficulty kept increasing but the demonic creature did not slow down increasing its speed to match the difficulty of the test, the demonic lord overseeing the test was impressed by what he saw and gave it a passing mark.

  "He will be useful as a scout given some more time to grow, given his young age we use him for an experimental void adaptatiohod's iure" the demonic lord spoke to his subordinate's.

  This demonic beast was one of many who would succeed in a bid for survival. Although it would lose the majority of its freedom along with their children and children's children, it was still better than simply giving up.

  Following this period of time every demo entering the Arks would be guarao be the most elite members of the sun reach ti and the hope of their species.

  Many alien races throughout the vast tree realm held their own trial grounds rge or small but while many had already left their respective tis, others had only just started.

  Regardless of the oute the most elite members of each race would be leaving the Vast tree universe seeking more time for cultivation, and hopefully a new home.

  As for the sun reach ti itself, well even its barren remains be used for something.

  Golden phoenix pace - above heaven ah, one of the three unparalleled holy nds of the Vast tree universe.

  This was the homend of records, everything from historical records, formations, pill recipes, panacea of all kinds, locations of rare materials, locations of all spirit races, cultivation practices along with the location of all major or rising powers within the vast tree realm could be found here.

  With several thousand branches spread throughout the universe know simply as minor-phoenix-paces or phoenix paces to better serve a wider popuce. The amount of information gathered from around the universe on a daily basis was simply astronomical, one could read the entire history of a p along with all writte up to the day to day lives of it's citizen's.

  While not everything in the universe ossible to be recorded as not everyone wao share their secrets with others the golden Phoenix pace still held absurd amounts of information, enough so that they could piece together seemingly obscure information into individuals as/events that few to none would have heard off.

  For the past seven billion years the paces prestige had not fallen, many inpetent pace lords have graced its halls yet its reputation preceded them and any for the Vast tree universe with es to the Golden Phoenix pace was almost guarao be a major power of their region.

  Currently a group of spirit cultivators of the highest caliber held a meeting, the discussion was rowdy and seemingly lively but a heavy air could be felt in the air.

  "Lord Debian! Do your words hold truth?! Are there really less then 25 years before we must leave? Didn't we firm to at least have 60 years before the corruption could affect the majority of the vast tree realm?"

  A woman's voice sounded with .

  A rough sounding mans voice sounded out to answer her.

  "We have been stantly monit the spread of the corruption, we say for certain that as the corruption keeps expanding it does not keep to a stant speed. Instead it seems to increase speed as it further devours our realm, it no longer has anything impeding its advand is only gaining energy cutting our time down signifitly"

  "What of the army? Last I heard they held firm even if they eventually got pushed back" an old maioned.

  "The army is too far spread, inally the battle took p a small gap created in the realm barrier but after the line broke, any and all tai options simply... aren't possible, not in a timely ma least. The current strategy is to deny any resources that may stres advance" A woman answered calmly.

  Another a sounding voice sounded "So what losses are we expeg now?"

  Another man sounded out "fuuah! Losses?! I doubt we lose much more. How many heaven breaking lords have been lost so far? By the time they revive we will all be dead and even than they had already lost once what difference does it make it they try again?!"

  A mog mans voice responded "we still expect to lose the rest of the realm :)"

  The first oke once more "silence! We 't waste time, send word out immediately to the remaining spirit tis and worlds to speed up their respective evacuations, even if they don't all believe us it's better than nothing"

  The message would naturally not arrive on time for the vast majority as the vast tree universe was simply gargantuan, fortuhe golden Phoenix pace was not the only major cultivation holy nd.

  While it may be one of the current pinnacle's of all holy nds, it didn't always hold the title nor could it always hold the title, it was not until Heaven breaking Tamra roamed the universe did this pace rise iige.

  Across the universe major powers were already sending out warnings to their allies which tio be passed down the grape viil it would eventually reach the ears of even lone cultivators. For smaller powers that lived on spiritual ps away from major spirit tis, they could only t on word-of-mouth to reach them on time to leave the leave this universe behind.

  Through even if the golden phoenix paces message never reached its destination, major powers that had the ability to foresee future event would already have evacuated those they deemed to have value or importao them.

  "Sigh..." A sigh loud enough to be heard across the room entered everyone's ears..

  All 8 people within the chamber turned around, they noticed a man in his te thirties appear from the shadows "The corruption was not something that we alone could have stopped, we at least try and save more then half of the Arks heading out from the south-western quadrants. Send out the remaining forces of the united army not already in bat, dey the iable for one additional year - minimum!"

  The man anded and no oed.

  "Make sure to resend the message multiple times, we never know what kind of trickery happen in these dire times"

  "As you and"

  <+== The overseer's end ==+>

  Within the lower western quadrant of the vast tree universe the camity known as corruption spread quickly, tless creatures perished while the nd tore apart, one could try to fight o time for o ce but in the end it was to no avail.

  Empires fell in the blink of an eye, while leaders of a millennia disappeared before they knew what hit them. The only respite for these lost souls was the fact that they died so quickly not a single scream was heard.

  Qi vergence, Foundatioablishment, Core formation and even soul cultivators died while eating, sleeping, training or even traveling straight into the camities dire not knowing it was ahead.

  The few powerful enough to notice fought for their lives only to be taken down in seds without even a scream.

  Deity transformation cultivators exploded ihousands every sed leaving nothing but destru behind, yet these bright events that should have attracted the attention of all nearby got swallowed up by the yellow light ahy dust kicked up by the camity .

  Even light struggled to escape this camity as it was ed alongside everything else o be seen again.

  But life ops its struggle for survival, even while a ti was being devoured by the corruption a group e cultivators was taking off on a flying ship less then two kms away from the advang corruption speeding up as quickly as it could.

  "Speed up!!! Speed uppp!!! Were still not fast enough!"

  "We're already going as fast as we , if we go any faster the flying ship will not st!" the man feared overloading the vessels energy core causing burnout, that would simply be the end of them.

  This was a group of over a thousand spirit cultivators using the fastest flying ship that could be found among the 6 states of the - Middle nds spirit - ti residing in the lower western quadrant.

  Traveling at speeds of over 350,000 kms a sed they could only just keep a step away from disaster.

  At such speeds even light became as sharp as a bde, if not for the fact cultivators could ighe ws of physics with spiritual Qi, each person would long have died.

  Spiritual energy/Qi was this sort of miracle, it was beyond any rational uanding at best of times while other times it simply made no sehe ws g spiritual Qi while seemingly x could also be rather mid than one might initially think.

  It all depended on the user of Qi themselves, if they had free flowing thoughts that aligned with their path then spiritual energy would naturally flow freely, if one was rigid in their approach to trolling spiritual Qi then likewise spiritual Qi would be as rigid as they are.

  This of course doesn't take into at outside factors or events that could influehe spiritual energy in the surroundings or even that inside of oneself.

  As the corruption camity spread the spiritual energy of the ti folded onto itself slowing the corruption down just enough for the vessel to keep a distance away.

  "The corruption is sug in and scattering the spiritual energy behind us! it's difficult to propel ourselves away from its influence!"

  "Then make a false e! All we need is a moment with an intact dragoo speed away to a retively safe distance!"

  This group was retively experienced amongst cultivators of the same level, they had all gohrough trials and tributions with successful vehough mired in failure.

  "My guest! Passengers on this fateful day please help us! Wind spirit elemental users, anchor yourselves to the aft of the ship hurry!"

  "!??"

  "Go to the rear! the- the back! The back of the ship!!!" The captain of this vessel had enlisted the help of even the passeo escape this predit, giving orders to the best of his ability.

  "Ja! Fire the forward s, we need enough spiritual energy around the ship to establish the false e with a dragon vein!" He screamed his order so that aly hear, should this ja fail another will know to take his pce.

  "Everyone else prepare to infuse energy into the ships core!"

  No one on this ship spared energy to talk in a low voice, the sound ing from behind them was so loud that it could deafen the ears if heard for too long.

  The spiritual energy around them had entered a frenzy blog all forms of unication outside of direct speech.

  "Fire!"

  Muffled explosions sounded, a smoky mist formed up ahead quickly c the flying ship.

  The explosions distance couldn't be sidered far, ihen one fiftieth of a sed the flying ship had arrived at the same location they had fired upon.

  The fire tinued for several seds not stopping for a moment, this caused the ship to be pushed back a little bringing each person to question their lives.

  "Now! Infuse energy into the ships core! Wind spiritualist propel us forward! Activate the ships dragon riding formation, ect to the dragon veins ahead forcefully!"

  Quickly all orders were carried out, the flying ship successfully speed away giving it fifty kms of safety before it activated the Dragon riding formation on the sides of the ship and as if on an invisible railroad y below it sped up almost three times as fast.

  "Hahaha! We did it! ride the dragon vein for 90 million kms more and then break into the void! Gain speed go! Go!" The captain bellowed with all his might in joy.

  This group of cultivators became some of the fehile caught off guard by the rapid adva of the camity, had mao escape the destru of a ti while speeding off into the void.

  The camity seemed to advance far too slow to cover the entirely of the vast tree realm withiy-five years but in truth had this spiritual tis energy not been in the way, the flying ships passengers wouldn't even have noticed they had died.

  The camity had only sent a small tendril to surround the ti, the true might of the camity had yet to reach this location as the as of the united army had successfully deyed it within the rift for just a while longer.

  The ti from which this group had just successfully escaped from had helped this group of cultivatet away but their journey had just begun.

  As for the ti, it would like die off uo do anything.

  From the flying ship one could see nations disappear in the blink of ah the occasional *POP* fshing in and out of view.

  Cultivators at and above body reformation (those above deity transformation) fought for a while before choosing to run away, no amount of effort could save this ti now. Many of them had fought at one point or another alongside the united army, they knew just how devastating the camity truly was.

  While flying ships are good for inner universe space travel, meaning they for the most part travel ahere is spaside the vast tree universe it did not mean safety.

  To travel the vast tree realm one required more than just teology or luck, one needed w defying power that would enable oo even reach axies with a siep to make travel reasonable.

  This flying ship and many others like it would o get lucky and find a better form of transportation.

  Mortals would generally die never getting the ce to see axies, cultivators for the most part had the option to travel to these fn gaxies they simply o survive the journey.

  The vessel this group trusted in could at best travel between gaxies in around 10 years given the spa-between is retively clear of obstacles that allowed for it to truly devote all its energy simply to movement. 10 years for the flying ship to reaaxy, 25 years for the camity to enpass the vast majority of the gaxy... The odds were against them.

  Looking into the yellowed storm that is known as the camity of Corruption one could see gargantuan silhouettes rushing forward followed by thousands of shadows, it seems that the trouble are not yet over for this flying ship and its passengers.

  "Look! Who do you think is fighting down there?!"

  The crew of the ship and passengers looked over the sides.

  Below fshes of sword light split the sky, as the mountains crumbled the silhouettes hidden in the dust charged withard but everytime they emerged sword light would knock them bace more.

  "The size of that sword light! It's enough to destroy nations with a single ssh let alohis barrage!"

  "Yet still... Whatever is attag hasn't died"

  "Ah he escaped! So even a swordmaster of such a level flees"

  "Does anyone know what is happening? Does this have anything to do with the camity?"

  "Watch out!"

  Sword light fshed by the flying ship cutting a hole into the barrier prote those inside.

  "Sorry for intruding but I require a ride" an older man carrying several people nded on the flying ship.

  "Ah! ah of course please please e e" the captain of the flying ship weled the new addition, such a powerful figure would undoubtedly be indispensable iure.

  "Is this the limit? the ship not go faster?" The older man asked.

  "Yes, unfortunately we ot go faster. Ah but you were behind us and caught up with ease sire, could you not escape faster on your own?" The captaihe answer but asked anyway so the rest may know.

  "Yes, but I am not on my own. How much does it cost for you to get us to Huhil void port?" The older man checked the dition of those he brought with him carefully iing for even the smallest abnormality.

  "Huhil void port? I am sorry but I'm not familiar" the captain had ferried to many locations in his lifetime but he was not well versed in space travel nor did he cim to know.

  "My mistake, here use this to guide you. I fet those in lower realms don't normally use such means of travel. As for the speed of this vessel let me hahat" handing over a small gemstoo the captain the older man stretched his hand out before retrag it.

  "Ah wait, before that let me assist some of my fellow cultivators to escape this camity, feel free to break into space I will follow shortly" with that the man disappeared leaving the people he carried behind.

  The captain of the ship could only follow as the man said, he simply followed the mans dires and steered into space.

  <+==  Echos of past  ==+>

  < The report handed in by the extermination squad seems to ck maails as to the events that happened on the day the camity was first entered.

  What happeo the sword of heavenly maya? Did the spear saint Hajl fail to retrieve it or did he leave it on purpose?

  How did the spear saint Hajl mao survive when heavenly maya did not?

  Yes it's great that he lived but the entire fight was simply skipped over and to this day not a single visual record has been provided to show as to the truth of what happened.

  Worse off the spear saint spoke to the camity and it replied 'corruption'? To date we have no ats of anyone being able to unicate with any of the creatures tainted by the camity. Now the beast he fought could have been different but why?

  Wheermination squad arrived at the se they were immediately attacked by the creature leaving a seasoned group of fighters scrambling for even the smallest advantage, yet the spear saint Hajl was hardly strohen the average individual member of the extermination squad, yet held on his own fht hours?

  Was this creature testing the spear saint?

  It had the power to assumedly defeat heavenly maya but it still chose to test the spear saint aermination squad?

  The spear saint was reportedly heavily injured yet not weeks after he returo base it was said that he had fully recovered while the extermination squad was still gravely ihis is very odd as even the smallest of wounds caused by the camity of corruption have been shown to fester for years regardless of treatment.

  Worse off I seem to be the only one who noticed these discrepancies while everyone else seems to merely take them as fact, even if I expin it clearly its like they fet instantly.

  I need assistance of a higher level but at this point everyone has already left to fight or has mysteriously disappeared...

  It seems I will have to take matter into my own hands, I will find spear saint Hajl and ask him to provide a soul memory. I know it is drastic but I 't shake off this feeling that things are much worse then they seem. > Date written 122 78 by Eria loo

  "... Why am I receiving a report over 50 years old only now?"

  "Madam? That only arrived today.

  "Then why has it only arrived now? Who is this Eria loo?"

  "I will find out, as for Eria loo she went missing a year before this report was written..."

  "What do you mean?"

  "Well she art of the missing personnel list and subsequent iigation we unched back then, the iigation yielded s and... And... I.. I 't remember"

  "Send a group to apprehend spear saint Hajl immediately make sure to send at least one heavenly rebirth lord. If you ot capture him, eliminate him"

  "Yes Ma'am!"
