A few minutes after we took over the Operations Bridge, Irja rejoined us after completing what she set out to do.

Following that, we spent around half an hour just overlooking the World of Meta from the clear windows of the Bridge and enjoying some quality time with one another while waiting for Nysia and the others to arrive.

As soon as we\'re done, I informed Nysia about the success of our operation, informing them that we had already taken over the ship and asked them to send Researchers and some muscles that would secure it and study the ginormous Space Vessel.

Leianne, who\'s waiting for the news at her side, also chipped in her suggestion.

She suggested bringing Krond and some of his subordinates to pacify the general population inside the Mothership. Because they\'re all aligned to the Healing Faction, it\'s a lot better for a fellow Anzean to talk to them rather than us who had just killed their leaders.

Thinking about it, even Yuko agreed to her suggestion. Right after that, they brought Krond in, not to negotiate but to tell him our plans.

We didn\'t need to get his approval. We\'re only informing him of what we\'re going to do.

After deliberating about the Anzeans\' future in this world, he gulped down whatever indignation he felt and accepted the suggestion.

With the details ironed out, the informed ones immediately move. In less than an hour, we welcomed two spacecraft of the Settler Faction through the Mothership\'s main hatch.

Apart from the above-mentioned names, a team of Researchers interested in the Anzeans\' Technology was assembled along with a team of Core Pilots that would be securing the Mothership for the Alliance.

I stood to my words of taking over the ship, it would be up to Krond how he would convince the Anzeans aboard it to go down and join their settlement.

At least, upon seeing that we only dealt with the Transcendent and his loyal supporters that were locked inside the Command Hall, Krond\'s frustration lessened.

Earlier, when we\'re stating the new conditions for the Anzeans, he had a black face as anger continued to fill him. Anger at me and his powerlessness.

Because we didn\'t mention the Mortal Rank Anzeans living in the ship, he probably thought that we massacred everyone here.

However, there\'s really no point in doing that. The Alliance originally accepted them as new settlers in the World of Meta. If not for the Dark World enticing that Civilization Leader with a hope to heal their dying world, this wouldn\'t happen.

Moreover, if not for Krond being against the Healing Factions\' plan, the Free City would\'ve long been bombed by them. Nysia\'s long years of hard work would be gone in an instant.

I had him understand that it was us being merciful to them. Perhaps, this decision of mine was influenced by Dannae. Considering I didn\'t really care about the fate of this world, I was looking through things with my Companions\' well-being in mind.

If in the future, conflict with Anzeans and the original denizens happens, that will be a problem for this world\'s future generation. This world would soon enter a new era. It\'s inevitable to have conflict. As long as it wouldn\'t set the world back for a few years, that\'s beneficial for the world and its denizen\'s continued growth.

Time passed. Lexie and Leianne stayed at the Mothership to oversee the takeover and also to steer it away from the Moon.

Taking Nysia, Yuko and Irja with me, we went back to the Free City.

As I promised, I spent the rest of the night with Irja and Yuko, however, more than half of that time was spent with me doing my Absorption Session. They\'re all progressing fast, I couldn\'t lag behind them. As much as I want them to complete their Mortal Pathways, I also wanted to complete mine.

Nonetheless, just my presence alone was enough for the two women as they both joined me in it.

There was still an hour after I\'m done anyway. Naturally, that remaining hour was used well in increasing my bond with the two. Yuko\'s affection towards me was still as high ever since that day I started becoming our class\'s only Support and although Irja was still a tsundere, whenever she\'s in my arms, she would fold and become the lovable woman that she is.

Before the first light of the sun shone upon the surface of the World of Meta, the whole League and the three Factions were all mobilized from where they were. In the sky above the three Factions, a live feed of the Alliance Head, Nysia announcing the upcoming attack on the Moon.

While she\'s up there, I was monitoring the Moon and every screen which showed the various places where this broadcast was reaching. It\'s not even limited to the three Factions but also to some small encampments made by the Vagrants or those Black Markets now under the Order of the Light\'s Cradle.

Ever since the creation of the United Alliance, this would be the second time that we would go on a full offensive against an enemy of this world. The first one was when we uprooted the Order of the Dark Host, killing its mastermind, Lucas, crippling Julian and executing every discovered and captured member.

Just around two months ago, the three Factions were all on each other\'s throats, unaware of the real threat brought by the occupants of the Moon.

Day by day or week by week, a skirmish between the factions\' Pilots would happen, often resulting in deaths not only by those Pilots and operators but also the Vagrants trying their luck to pick up something they would be able to use to trade for food or other necessities.

All of those happened while the Dark World denizens were silently growing their forces by leeching off the three Factions.

Moreover, the three Heroes that should be leading the world against them were all fighting against each other, representing the Faction they were in.

The lone Free City of Nysia which was previously composed of the same vagrants who lost their countries and kingdoms from the war was trying its hardest to guard against them while keeping the three Factions in check.

If not for Nysia and the League\'s existence, this world would\'ve long become thoroughly ravaged by the three Factions and without needing to lift any muscle, the Dark World would easily conquer this world as soon as their Transcendents descended.

"Years of war, we suffered. Have you not thought about when this will end? Will we always have to be wary that any minute, any second, our homes will be run down to the ground once more?" Nysia started.

She\'s not one who liked to give speeches but for the sake of invigorating every denizens\' hopes, she had to.

At least, Elise, Leianne, Lunaria and Reinys helped her by giving her tips on how she should construct her words.

"No! That\'s enough suffering! This time, we now have the chance to end all of this. And I swear to all of you. This will be the last time you will be seeing those Darkbugs pestering our world! Although not all of you will be able to join us, watch us as we took them down. Watch us as we give you the victory that we\'re all seeking for!"

"Today, our world will be liberated from the fear they cast upon us. Today, we will enter this world\'s new era. Soldiers of the United Alliance, this is your Alliance Head ordering you… Commence Operation Moonfall!"

Ending her speech like that, Nysia straightened her back and stared at the denizens below her and onto the camera recording the event, transferring her gaze to the denizens living in the three Factions\' territories.

At first, it was only a clap from a few people. However, as seconds passed, those few claps infected another few, doubling it. And as the volume of those claps grew increasingly louder, the claps along with the cheers started to thunderously echo not only in the Free City of Nysia but also at every part of the world where this event was being broadcasted. Even the vagrants who were still living day by day picking up scraps of regenium and other Metagen or Darkgen parts to put food on their plates were invigorated from her speech when they saw it on a communicator they picked up.

In this battle, although the main targets were the Transcendents and the Portal, every Companion of mine will be joining the battle.

The ones who arrived from the World of Barbarian were all given their own Specialized Metagen and a Powergen to use taken out from the League\'s Armory. The Specialized Metagens were all upgraded to be able to use by any type of Source Energy.

Last night, while we\'re at the Anzeans\' Mothership, Erin and Noelle assimilated the Meta Energy, synchronizing a new Pathway for them.

Erin awakened an ability called Shadow Control while Noelle awakened an ability called Vitality Control.

Since both of them were at the 4th realm of her Mortal Pathway, their abilities evolved two times. Erin\'s Shadow Control became Shadow Manipulation and Noelle\'s Vitality Control became Life-force Control.

Erin\'s Ability was to be expected but Noelle\'s Ability sounds like it was an overpowered ability… When I asked her what she could do with it, she told me that it\'s more or less about healing. However, she could also do the opposite of it, deterioration.

Is that overpowered or not? Of course, it is!

Using that ability coupled with her Blessings, Dannae\'s mother, Dianne, woke up from her years-long coma.
