The next phase of battle was void of any suspense, as her skeletons killed their way to the gates, while she moved, unhindered by anything, until she reached the distant gates, and started absorbing them one by one.

After absorbing a group of gates, she paused, wasted some time in summoning more of the dead monsters, while waiting for any signs of retaliation from the monster army.

However, she completely destroyed all the gates without any suspense at all! Her enemies seemed to accept their defeat, and decided not to lose more.

"Sigh, this was a really good opportunity to kill some monsters," she sighed, as she then gave the order to her skeletons to move to the distant, killing any single monster remaining here.

This action was executed smoothly, and her skeletons went out for hours before finally returning to her. They even went inside the ridge, killed all the monsters inside, and then returned.

In the middle of all this, she kept summoning new skeletons, using the rich battleground to add more to her huge army. After the return of the main army, she didn't have anything else to do but to request from her system to store them away.

As her system stored all the skeletons, except her frost bony dragon, she went back to the alliance, under a heavy respectful silence full of admiration and veneration.

She didn't walk inside the alliance fort, but went directly towards the central palace, as she knew her main players would follow suit.

As she entered the palace, she asked her dragon to keep itself comfortable on top of the palace, so anyone from far would witness this huge palace, with this huge dragon curling its body on its top.

As she sat on her seat, taking some rest, her top players all gathered here, with Ela and her master as well, while they all were smiling and laughing on the various kinds of expressions they saw, heard, and read about Oya's skeletons.

They weren't as shocked as others, after all they witnessed this grand army in the making, knowing for sure this wasn't all the forces that Oya controlled.

"Congratulations on the grand victory alliance leader," Avada was the first to speak up, and his words were mixed with his smiles and laughs.

"It seems you were having fun here as well," Oya chuckled, as she added, "what happened in the outside world? did they see everything?"

"Sure, they saw it all, and believe me, they are all now in shock and the whole world is in uproar," Salsola replied, while Oya just smiled and said nothing.

"The forums are literally exploding with endless threads about the battle. Videos and footages are even sold at high prices there, while endless requests and demands for any tips or info about how to gain such a mighty class are filling the forums, with extravagant prices," Dante said, while laughing in the middle of his words.

"They want to buy my class?!" Oya strangely asked, before bursting out in laughter, "that's hilarious. This class is only unique to me, and no one else could acquire it no matter how much he or she paid!" she added, while shaking her head helplessly, as she knew how greedy the players were.

"We gained more players, more respect, more fame, and above all everyone is now fearing us. I think these monsters and their controlled players wouldn't bother us anymore," Mila laughed as well, while expressing her own opinion.

"Don't belittle them, it's a war of existence not a fight of players and alliances," Ela suddenly said, as she didn't want them to be drunk by this victory. After all, in her opinion, this victory came because of Oya. If not for her presence, this fight would end up in a total different way.

"Sure, our enemies aren't that easy to handle," Oya nodded, affirming Ela's words, "so we need to keep working hard, don't stop leveling all of our players," she added.

"Sure, but there is something weird that we noticed," Avada suddenly said, "all the players killed in the first clash never heard about again. there are some threads in the forums claiming they were found dead in the real world, without any obvious cause of death," he said, and Oya did her best to control her emotions.

"Really? That's disturbing," she faked her shock and silence, feigning thinking about this issue, "send for two hundred and seven, ask him to investigate this matter. Provide to him a full list of names of those killed and never entered the game again, and if you can provide more data about their real life from players close to them then it would be better."

She purposely paused, before muttering in a fake grief:

"We need to make sure our players are safe, and if not we need to make sure of this, as it might be a weird and unheard ability of these monsters; something we have to guard against next time we clash with them."

They all nodded with grim faces, buying her excuse and sympathy. "Now go, make sure our players celebrate well, and don't lower the external defenses," she said, waving her hand for them to go out and join the ongoing celebrations.

"Scary, you are really scary," Ela smiled bitterly after everyone was excited here, as she and Oya's master only stood on the side, silently watching this little show.

"I had to, or else many consequences would happen," she helplessly shook her head, as she already was aware of this problem from the beginning, and decided to close her eyes and ears over them.

"Though it's harsh, but it's the right decision to take for sure," the master supported her in this, "so, are you ready to go to the universal city?" she asked, as the auction there was so close to start.

"How much time do I have?" Oya asked, as she didn't think she would leave soon after the end of the fight.

"In a couple of days, but it's not wise to go there at the time of auction, as there are many things left to do there before the auction starts," Ela said, as she added, "for example we need to get a verification for you from there. Also we need to find a way to sell your items at a high price, so we can have enough money to buy what we need."

"Don't worry about the money," Oya smiled as she had a thought, "what if I offered to kill their seeds?" she asked.

"No, extremely bad idea," her master hurriedly replied, "these NPCs are much different than us; they willingly submitted themselves to the monsters, while facilitating their invasions to our worlds. they are spies, people you should avoid exposing such grave secrets to them."

Her words just shocked Oya, while Ela on the side just nodded to confirm the words of her master.

Oya was speechless, as she looked in a puzzled look towards Ela and her master, who both nodded in unison.

"Are there really such traitors?" she asked.

"Sure, every world has a bunch of those, and they always gained their lives and freedom, living like kings and queens there in the universal city," Ela replied.

"Is this universal city considered such a trophy?" Oya wondered.

"Sure, it's full of prosperity and peace, away from any danger coming to the world. Besides, being outside the jurisdiction of the domains turns it into a place craved by many to visit, facilitating their biggest mission here," her master said.

"What mission?" Oya asked in more puzzlement.

"To select the next batch of traitors out of this world's players," her master answered, "and this is considered a big step for the monsters to successfully invade and destroy any world; festing deeply inside the body of any world, creating internal chaos and disturbances, enough to make them invade easily without much losses," she added, and her words made Oya feel more scare!

"Listen, to them each world is like a huge farm, where they would garnish huge resources, and new numbers of monsters to control and raise their armies," Ela said, trying to explain further, teaching her more about these monsters.

"Wait a minute, you don't mean.." Oya suddenly said, stopping in the middle of her words, while the two in front of her nodded.

"Unfortunately this is the truth; every single monster you are killing was once a human being like you, controlled by the monsters, invading them with their seeds. As for those much stubborn and bitterly unlucky like us, resisting the seeds and the transformation, they would be turned into their slaves, tools to invade any growing game world, while waiting patiently for the seeds inside to mature and grew strong enough to control us," her master sighed as she said explaining the bitter dark truth to her.

"But we aren't that unlucky, in fact we all are lucky as we finally met our savior, and this sinister curse we had was eliminated successfully by her," Ela said, with a smile over her face, correcting the error her master fell into.

"Sure, sure, sorry the habit of living inside this dark prison isn't that easy to be removed from my mind," her master apologized, shaking her head off these dark thoughts.

Oya just sighed, as she could partly relate to this, as she was also like them; imprisoned and with threat and fear and doubt surrounding her world.
