"Not only you, but I also have a way to stop Vor. It's not a problem at all. Unfortunately, you won't be here to see achieve it all!"
Ramiun had barely finished his sentence before he attacked Elisi. His n also attacked her warriors, overwhelming them by their large numbers.
As Ramiun's hand was about to touch Elisi, her figure disappeared. Like a ghost, she appeared behind Ramiun. However, as if expecting this, Ramiun jumped up, avoiding her attack, which was about to land on him.
Ramiun landed in the distance, slightly amazed that Elisi was still as fast. In fact, she seed even faster than she was when he last t her.
"What happened? Why aren't you attacking anymore?" Elisi smirked, seeing the surprise on Ramiun's face.
In another part, the battle between the Generals of both sides had gotten more intense, in which Elisi's side was having a slightly harder ti.
"This is my last warning to you!" Elisi declared. "Tell what you are after here. We can still work together. You tell just what exactly it is that you want from this place, and I'll not only let you live, but I'll also partner up with you!"
"Is that so?" Ramiun inquired. "The offer isn't half bad, but I don't think I would share what I'm after. Only I can have that, and only I will. So you'll have to get out of my way."
Ramiun attacked again as he rejected any possible negotiations.

There was only silence inside the carriage. No one was speaking. It had been that way for seemingly hours since none of them appeared to have any topic. In the long journey, everyone had run out of all the topics.
If there was one person who was breaking the silence, it was Luna, but even she couldn't keep up with it since Atlas didn't rember anything she talked about. Her mories were related to Castiel, and he was different. Not only did he not have Castiel's mories, but he also couldn't take a random guess.
Most of Luna's questions were answered by him in a single statent. "I don't rember."
"Grrr~"
After a long ti, the silence was broken again, but this ti because Luna's stomach was growling.
"Are you hungry?" Atlas asked.
Luna nodded. "I haven't eaten anything since I left ho."
"Do you eat the sa thing as humans?" Atlas inquired. Since Luna wasn't from earth, she didn't know what she actually ate or if they even had anything available.
"She can eat the sa thing as humans," Lilith answered instead. "That's what she ate when she was here last ti."
"We can stop at the next city, and you all can eat sothing." Atlas agreed. They had already run out of things to eat on the journey, and he didn't want to go looking for sothing to eat in the forests as that could waste a lot of their ti.
It was decided that they were going to stop in the next city and get sothing to eat there. It also wasted less of their ti.
Atlas opened the door and told the carriage driver to stop in the next city near a restaurant. It was also ti to show the carriage driver to rest since he had been up for a long ti.
The carriage driver acknowledged. "We aren't far from the next city. I can already see it. I'll stop as soon as we get to a restaurant or a hotel."
Atlas closed the door and conveyed the ssage. "We should be there soon. Just a little more."
"That reminds . You said you didn't eat anything since you left your ho? How long was the journey from your world to ours?" he asked, really curious about it. "Also, how did you even travel from one world to another? Did you use a Portal? Also, can you use the sa portal to go back if you wanted?"
"So many questions," Luna smiled. "And all the sa that you asked last ti as well. I'll answer once again though."
"Regarding your first question... It took two days to get from my world to here, and no, it wasn't a portal. It was sothing else. I don't know how to describe it in a way that you can understand. But we do have sothing that can help us travel from one world to another. And yeah, we can use the sa to go back as well."
" If that's the case, can't we attack the Empire instead?" Atlas asked, mainly targeting the question to Lilith. "I an, wouldn't it be better to take the fight to them instead of letting them bring a fight to you?"
"Last ti, you said that the people from the Solace Empire took our world hostage and used that to convince the resistance to give v up. Couldn't you have done the sa? I think Castiel would've been strong enough to fight back. If he and the other Progenitors had taken the sa route to their world and taken them hostage, wouldn't that be better?'
Through his question, he placed forth the question that was in his mind. Did they miss an opportunity in the past?
"You could've answered them in the language they understood," he further stated. "Since they loved to take worlds hostage, it certainly would've pushed them back if their own world was a hostage. You would've had a much better advantage in negotiations."
"You think we didn't think about that?" Lilith let out a defeated sigh. "The thing can only take one person back with it. There isn't enough space inside it. And before you ask why we didn't send Castiel, only then, we couldn't. The thing that Luna used to co here can only be used by her."
"In other words, only people from her species can use those tis, so we couldn't have used that. We tried to find a way to overco this problem, but it's just impossible. So we couldn't take their world hostage. And even if we could get there, I doubt it would be that easy to take them hostage.
"So it was a futile effort. We were backed off in a corner. The battlefield was our ho, and we couldn't change the battlefield, no matter how much we wanted. That was what gave those people such a big advantage."
"Can we still not use it?" Atlas asked Luna, wondering if the sa problem still existed.
Luna nodded her head. "You can't take the path I took. It won't work. But there is one way..."
