Chapter 440: Elites (12/13), The Measurement
"Alright. It's plausible. Chaos Harbinger is challenging and for maximum rewards, they must finish it as fast as possible."
"If both groups end up in the same Event randomly, they must work together for maximum benefits," Ayaka said.
Tenebria nodded, "Alright. Also, I would like to add a special aid call. If any group's established area is in danger, then the other group must send reinforcement to defend."
"Sounds good," Ayaka smiled. "Defending is easy even with small reinforcement."
Tenebria nodded, "I think this is it. We don't need more rules."
"Yep. So let's arrange the teleport means," Ayaka said as she looked at a girl with big white flappy ears with a black and white design.
She had horns on her head and a slim white tail. Her breasts with massive as indicated by her big chest area covered in a silky brown robe with plain patterns.
She smiled at Erix and others, "I am Celcie. I created a Space Device which can help us teleport to each other."
She took out two small silver-blue space guns with an antenna-type front and no barrel. In short, They didn't shoot bullets as there was no hole in barrels, but a spiral antenna.
"Show them," Ayaka nodded.
Celcie wielded both guns and pointed her hands to her left and right.
She pressed the trigger in her left gun and it shot a sparkling silver laser that stopped after a meter and created a portal.
"These guns can create portals that can connect to each other. Their lifespan is 1 hour to 10 hours, depending on Prana consumed."
She pressed the trigger in her left again and created another portal right beside it. "I have two portals from Space Gun A. Now, Space Gun B will have three options when you infuse 1 Aethir force in it. You will see Portal A1, Portal B1, or New."

"If you select Portal A1 and shoot, it will create a Portal A2 that connects itself to Portal A1," Cecie shot with her right gun and it created a portal. Afterward, she threw the gun into Portal A2 and it emerged from Portal A1 before she grabbed it again.
"Simple, right?" Cecie grinned and gave one of the guns to Tenebria, "Lady Tenebria, you can give this gun to your group's leader."
"We only have 1 gun each, so make sure not to lose it," Ayaka said with a grin.
"Erix," Tenebria said and threw the gun at Erix who promptly caught it and curiously inspected it.
When he focused and concentrated, he was shocked at how fast and comprehensively he studied the gun in just a few seconds. Of course, this was mainly because his Space affinity was also at level 9.
"Interesting. Don't worry, if it's lost, I can make another gun that can connect to yours," Erix smiled and handed the gun to Korin, the middle-aged demon who was assigned leader of the group.
"Eh? That's not possible unless you have the material that's required to create this gun," Cecie wryly smiled.
"No need for that. I can create it," Erix shook his head while faintly smiling.
"I have Metal element 9th realm and a unique Metal-attribute concept that I awakened. With that, I can make new types of Metals suitable to any elements, including Super Exotic elements, and easily replicate other metals."
"Oh my, that's handy," Ayaka was surprised.
'That's so handy indeed!' Cecie was shocked and wryly chuckled. "Alright, then if you can, I hope you can make two more sets. We didn't have this metal since it's rare and I could only make three guns."
"More guns are better," Erix nodded.
"Anyway, the meeting is done, so you all are free to get to know each other until War of Throne starts," Ayaka stood up with a teasy grin on her face. "We'll take our leave. The portal to War of Thrones will open here after 56 minutes."
"Talk about the initial steps to the newbies. Almost all of you are entering War of Thrones first time, so there are particular steps one will have to move at the start, "Tenebria said as she stood up with a light smile.
She turned to Erix and added, "Erix, you can also create the guns now. Starting rush is busy in War of Thrones, so no need to waste time on this there."
…
Time soon passed as both groups first started with sparring each other and knowing their capabilities.
Even if they didn't go all out and fought within limits, they could still sense each other's prowess.
Erix also joined after half an hour as both groups fought team battles, but the most shocking thing to almost all people of both groups was that their attacks had zero effect on the bamboo trees or the ground.
However after this initial shock subsided, both groups didn't mind expanding their area of battle and sparring.
They got to know each other and both groups were in a different state of mind after this sparring session.
First, Erix and others got measured well against them and were genuinely shocked and became somber. They knew that at the moment, they were weaker the the beastfolks overall, in every area.
They also found out that Nira was stronger than them and Korin was the strongest of both groups. This demon was freakishly powerful, having three elements at the 10th realm, the Awakened Element, the final realm possible to achieve in this cosmic layer, and an arsenal of overpowered skills that made others helpless.
But Beastfolks were also in shock with the acceptance that the other group was capable and had potential. They were fired up and were shocked for only one reason.
Their Master Ayaka told them this group's journey in the path of power began under Mystic Root, and it was way shorter.
'They just lack in Concepts for now and Aethir mastery, both of which can be gained pretty fast in War of Thrones if they are capable and thirsty for it.'
'Indeed. But their thirst is evident, so their rise is nigh or so I hope. It will be more in War of Thrones this way.'
'Hahaha, their Regalon thingy is a big booster. Crazy Bloodline. I kinda want to join it.'
'Mea-chi, please. Don't start that against him.'
'That's right, Meadow. Keep your horny in check.'
In the last few minutes, both groups talked to each other for a bit before two portals opened and finally opened above in the sky.
But they soon combined into one, and its color slightly changed.
Seeing this, Erix raised his eyebrows, 'If each group is sent to different locations, and whatever that handles this whole dimensional playground thing located both groups were near, then this thing changed the portal such that even we entered into one porta, we'll still be sent to different locations.'
'Interesting.'
"Let's go, " The black-haired cat girl, Chihiro said with a big grin. She had a hot figure covered by a fancy and slick gem-blue ranger's outfit.
She was the leader of Beastfolk's group.
The beastfolks rushed forward and when Chihiro flew at it last, she looked at the Erix's group and said with a grin, "Y'all better catch up to us in some parameters or it won't be fun with you in this War of Thrones."
With a melodious chuckle, she entered the portal while her last words lingered.
"It's the race to Elites, and only Elites can ascend. Better keep up now that y'all ridin' on."
