Everyone inside the Pillar Space opened their eyes almost at the same time.

The disturbance came from the Fifth Pillar that belonged to Tsar.

Benji's dim eyes stared down at it. The others did the same, there was something strange was going on and around the Fifth Pillar.

Tsar's figure was flickering like it wa about to vanish into nothingness.

A gaping hole was right on the spot where his heart should be, with a rather high amount of darkness leaking out from the hole...

The others observed him with interest and confusion.

A cracking sound echoed through the Pillar Space, Tsar's head was suddenly split open with darkness escaping from his cracked skull...

Tsar's body was abruptly absorbed by the Throne and the Fifth Pillar...

The space turned silent afterward, everyone was confused about what just happened and its meaning.

[He died...] Muttered Adam stunned.

'His aura completely vanished.' Agreed Benji with Adam.

The others weren't sure what to think, the Fifth Pillar lost all its splendor, turning dormant like the empty Eighth and Ninth Pillars.

Miyamoto was the first to speak out loud what everyone was thinking, "Did Tsar just die?"

Lilith stood up from her Throne, walking to the edge of her Pillar, staring down at the dormant Fifth Pillar.

"I think he died, his aura disappeared and his Pillar is empty now..."

The others squinted their eyes, his death was too sudden, it alarmed them.

If Tsar could die...the same could also apply to the rest!

Silence descended upon the Pillar Space, everyone had their own thoughts about the event that had just transpired.

The silence didn't last long, it was broken when the Fifth Pillar lit up, exploding with a blinding red light that shot up into the dark sky.

It didn't take long until a new figure clad in the darkness appeared on the Fifth Pillar, sitting on the Throne which was recently occupied by Tsar.

Everyone observed the newcomer with new ignited curiosity.

[I didn't expect it, Tsar was killed and replaced! Hahaha that idiot tripped!] Mocked Adam the deceased Tsar.

The aura around the new guy on the Fifth Pillar was dangerous but many times weaker than the others.

Well, the only exception was Akinfenwa on the Seventh Pillar, he had no aura at all.

The newcomer looked around in wonder, his red eyes observing the Pillar Space until he noticed the others.

His eyes squinted when he saw everyone staring back at him.

"What happened to Tsar?" Asked Lilith, she was burning to know the details.

"Tsar Igor is dead, I'm now the new ruler, Tsar Yuri!" Answered the newcomer arrogantly.

Lilith nodded, "How did you do it? How did you arrive here? What did you experience?" Lilith bombarded him with all those questions.

Tsar Yuri looked irritated by Lilith, he sneered at her.

"Why the hell should I answer you, damn woman?" Cursed Tsar Yuri at her with contempt.

Lilith didn't become angry, she went back to her Throne, "Is that so? Fine by me. I guess we can split the territory that was ruled by Tsar, now that it is ownerless." Said Lilith, stunning the others.

[Hahaha not bad!] Complimented Adam Lilith.

"What did you just say?" Asked Tsar Yuri, his killing intent aiming at Lilith.

She ignored his existence, "I would take Ukraine, has anyone something against it?"

Benji smiled and decided to play along.

"I don't see anything wrong with it, I will take half of Russia, you wanna the other half of it Doc?" Asked Benji.

The Doc stayed silent but nodded as his walking stick hit the floor of his Pillar.

Yuri became angry, everyone was ignoring him, dividing the lands he just obtained after killing Tsar.

"I will kill anyone who dares to take what is mine!" Shouted Yuri as he stood up, his aura erupting from his body.

He suddenly felt a sharp aura assault him, Miyamoto stood up, holding two katanas in his hands.

One violent aura after another came crashing down on Yuri, making him stumble backward.

Every single one of them was many times stronger than his own and, causing him to realize what kind of people he was dealing with!

"Know your place, you are the weakest from us. Any of us could visit you an snap the life out of you!" Said Lilith.

"Weaklings have no say here, I don't know how you killed Tsar but what was once his will be split between us." Added Miyamoto who understood what they were aiming for.

Yuri became afraid, he sensed that these people were even more of monsters than the foolish Tsar that trusted him!

"Well there is a possibility for you to trade for the lands, just like Tsar did before..." Said Benji with an eerie smile.

Yuri gulped, "You want the information right?" He was arrogant but not stupid. He knew that the mood changed right after he refused to answer Lilith's questions.

She wasn't the only one that wanted to know how Tsar died and how Yuri took his position as the new Tsar. That's why they worked together.

Yuri saw through them but he had no other choice...

He told them everything they wanted to know...

Benji lied down on his ancient roman couch.

[So any random idiot can kill a Pillar under the right circumstances...] Commented Adam as he already began to think of ways to counter such possibilities.

Yuri told them that he was Tsar's Igor most trusted men. He used the venom from a mutated animal to poison Tsar before killing him, he was by no means a weakling and killed him with two strikes!

He also told them that the corpse of Tsar just vanished right after he killed him, only leaving behind the black horn on the ground. He picked it up and consumed it.

Yuri explained that incredible greed overcame him when he saw the black horn, he couldn't control himself and ate the horn on the spot...

Then he arrived inside the Pillar Space...

The others listened to his story, making mental notes to never underestimate others and watch out for poison.

"Well, congratulations Yuri, you just became the new Tsar. I wish you good luck with ruling your territory. I need to go now, the others will surely tell you about the rules." Said Benji before closing his eyes, returning to his body.

Lilith shook her head when she saw Solomon leave.

They all agreed to stay out of their territories but she wondered for how long they would keep up the peace treaty. She had already planned to mess with Akinfenwa in Africa...

The Volari Company had stationed many soldiers around the world but it became increasingly harder for them to operate.

The mutated animals were growing stronger at a frightening pace and zombies had begun to devour each other thus also growing stronger.

She experienced some backlash from her own people, some of the higher-ups demanded her to withdraw the soldiers to solidify their positions in Italy, France, and Spain.

It didn't sound like a bad idea on first glance but they were too radical. They wanted to recall all of their forces...

Lilith had a headache the past days because of it.

She told them that they still needed them to monitor the changes all around the world and other factions and organizations that were created but they didn't want to hear anything about it, staying stubborn.

She was at least backed by Professor Krychowiak who completed his evolution recently.

The old Professor turned into a new leaf, awakening lightning powers.

She didn't have the time or patience to face the higher-ups because she was gathering horns for her own evolution. Lilith was angry that she was delayed by her own people...

Miyamoto had it better, his faction grew stronger every day. He took in any survivor, sheltering them. They were expanding through all Japan avoiding the Red Zones if possible.

It wouldn't take long for him to unite Japan under him. But the way Tsar met his end alarmed him to not put too much trust into others...

The Doc was silently smiling under his mask...

Everyone had to deal with their own problems for now...
