"Hello mom," Ray said with a slight smile on his face, he had walked to the main hall where the preparations were being held and his presence came as a welcomed surprise.

Hearing his voice, everyone turned around and looked at him with smiles on their faces. Their hearts felt light as a load was lifted off their shoulders. Their leader was back and everyone was sure that now, everything will be fine.

After all, Ray had led them for so long that they had practically become dependent on him for a lot of things. The weight of burden shifted from them to Ray as Ray knew of his responsibility and was ready to take if up whole.

He walked forward as his presence made a big impact on everyone. His team members straightened their backs and stood straight like an arrow while others also turned serious.

Looking into Ray's eyes, they all realized that he was going to make some serious decisions. He walked up to his mother and nodded at her. His mother was obviously happy and that too to the point that tears of joy stemmed in her eyes but she held her reins.

She was in public and couldn't let he emotions run wild. She had an image to carry and she did so perfectly.

"Okay everyone. We are not safe in this world. Our world is being attacked from everywhere and our only option is to fight back and to do that, we need to surpass our limits and be stronger than ever," Ray spoke as he took the center of stage. His eyes brimmed with vitality as confidence seemed to ooze out of his body.

The new changes to him also helped. His physical body had surpassed it's past limits and this made Ray cast a greater aura on everyone while his soul had turned even more stronger. His aura was further strengthened by it while a strange wave of spirituality radiated out of him. It compelled everyone around him to follow him and adhere to his commands.

Though the wave was not strong enough to directly order everyone there, it could influence them to a limited extent.

Everyone nodded to Ray's words as their hearts pumped in anticipation. They all understood well that there was no place for losers and for them to live better, they had to work hard.

One could even say that Ray was lucky to have such ambitious men and women along with him. After all, humanity wasn't kike that at all. They took alt of things for granted and often complained about everything. Therefore, to have such hardworking people follow him, Ray had done a good job to retain them.

Also, a lot of wrong doers had been already weeded out by his mother and other team members and only the cream of the crop remained. Ray looked at them and nodded as he spoke his parting words,

"We will be taking some actions to gather more resources and I hope everyone to take their part in it. Also, some more actions will be taken and many will be given the opportunity to step out and shine with their strength," Saying those words, Ray stepped around and motioned his team members to follow him.

The guards made way as he walked to his room. He didn't know much of the current situation and wasn't resigned to walk the whole mansion to the meeting hall. Instead, he preferred the ease and simplicity of his own room. He felt comfortable there and also the room was pretty close by, so he didn't mind calling everyone there.

In Ray's room,

Everyone stood crowdedly as they looked at Ray who looked back at them with the characteristic smile on his face. He had cleaned the room earlier on and right now, it seemed as clean as it could be.

However, the burn marks and the cuts hat spread through the walls surely told a different story of what went on when Ray was undergoing his changes.

The twenty or so people took their time and explained the whom situation to Ray. As Ray heard what they had to say, his expression remained calm and indifferent on the outside while in his mind, a whole plan was formed as he took into account everything being told to him.

The most important and evident detail out of all was the new development around a few kilometers away from the base. Till now, the pagodas stayed a mystery and Sirius hadn't returned yet.

On the other hand, the elven prisoner they had caught remained silent. Therefore, they had little to no information on that matter. This was also why Ray's mother proposed the increased defenses around the base and that's why she went on with the proposal.

Currently, as the meeting went on, several traps were being built around the base. Ray's mother and divided the overhaul into five steps with the first step being the setting of traps. The second was of building siege machines and defensive turrets around the base while the third was to build walls simultaneously. The walls acted as a physical barrier while they hid the real stronger energy barrier of the mansion.

The fourth was the deployment of people to stay guard while the last part was the most important and she hadn't revealed it to anyone.

Even Ray was out of knowledge about the fifth part but Ray didn't mind. He knew she had her reasons and would be brought up to speed soon enough.

"So with all of this settled. I will meet the prisoner and try to gauge her up," Ray dismissed everyone else and sat in silence as he thought of his future actions.

The pagoda, the dean's message and a lot of other factor pointed out to one thing only, they were on their own. The situation was already pretty bad and the incoming rifts made it worse. Not to mention the strange attacks the whole planet seemed to be experiencing.

Ray had no doubt that the government would be able to deter most of it but the remaining, Ray knew that it was his job to protect his people and land. Also, with the world going down; the world order was done for. So it was a chance for him to not only grow stronger but occupy more area and strengthen his position.

Because for all her knew, this was just the tip of the ice berg and the worst was yet to come.

Standing up, Ray took a deep breath and walked out of his room. Walking to the makeshift prison area, he found two people guarding a single cell.

…

For the past couple of days, Aella and Kashish had been standing guard around the elven prisoner. Although they were unable to get her to talk, their presence made her less wary to them.

Their interaction, although limited was very useful as the elven prisoner usually made small talk with them. However, they never divulged on more sensitive topics. It seemed as if the elf was afraid to do so, so they both let her be.

After all, it wasn't their job to make her speak. Their job was to guard the cell and make sure nothing wrong happened.

During these days, both Aella and Kashish got to know each other even better. They both opened up to each other and talked about different topics they both were interested in.

Well, with Kashish being a princess from the other world, it left little topics they both were interested in. So their topic unconsciously remained around Ray. Aella was sure that Kashish not just adored him but also had a spark of feelings for him and she didn't mind.

Aella knew that Ray was someone who would meet a lot of girls in his life, so she had resigned herself to be his first of many he would have.

As they both indulged in their daily discussion about Ray, they heard footsteps approach them. Alerted by the sudden approach of someone, they stood up and summoned their weapons.

After all, they could sense almost anyone that came here and whenever someone did, they would be informed beforehand. But this one was just different because it wasn't just the steps but a strange aura also emanated of the person approaching them.

It felt suffocating and this alerted both of them. Not just them, but the elven prisoner also stood up and looked in the direction of the incoming person.

"Hello there ladies, didn't think I would meet such a welcome back,"
