"I assume with all this mana at your disposal. You can teleport all of us to where that black hole," Yuki said, and then she looked around before sighing. "However, it looks like you won't be able to take everyone here alongside you. So, what is the plan?"
After working for several more days non-stop, Leon, Yuki, and Tyrselle managed to assemble a force of one hundred million warriors. Those were the people who survived the assimilation, at least until the fourth stage of the assimilation. All of them, more or less, could take down a dragon. However, now that everyone could feel the power of the system's creator just like they could feel the air and the rain on their bodies, they lost the will to fight. Only those who almost died dozens of times didn't lose their fighting spirit, and among that group, a little more than one hundred thousand fits in that criteria. Even some of the warriors that are being led by Crik once again lost their courage. Upon noticing that, Leon understood that things wouldn't go as planned.
Leon looked around and saw the leaders of each race, people he never met, people he met in order lives, and people that were once his enemies. They were his allies for the time being, and as such, he would explain to them his plans without hiding anything.
"Although I want all the help I can get, we don't know what is waiting for us inside the black hole," Leon replied. "So, I think it would be safe if Ilyana, Tyrselle, and I were the first ones to go. Our main goal is to nullify the effects and everything the system caused, with or without a fight. It will be easier to convince whoever is on the other side that we only want to talk if we bring a small group of people first."
"Isn't that too risky?" Hector asked. "Let's suppose that whoever is on the side is willing to talk and attend our demands. Even if they say, they are going to do what we want, what assurances do we have that things will go the way we want?"
"He is right," Tyrselle said. "The best way to assure that we will have what we want is by defeating the creator of the system. If he has access to even more mana than we have, he might as well be watching us right now and try to fool us later."
"You are not entirely wrong, but you are not entirely correct either," Leon said. "I know that you don't want to take any chances, but just like you, I don't want that either. Before, I thought that the system's creator was an enemy, but right now, I'm wondering if that is really the case. Maybe they had a good reason to start all this… maybe that reason won't convince us, but just assuming that their reason doesn't matter might cause problems for all of us in the future."
'In other words," Amanda frowned.
"In other words, we will go ready to fight, but not without trying to talk," Leon said. "At any sign that negotiation isn't an option, we will fight. I will trust your judgment when the time comes. You guys don't have to follow my command. If any of you notice anything strange, you not only can but must teleport all those who are ready to fight and help us. That being said, try not to let your feelings get in the way."
