"Hahaha! What are you saying?! Of course, they will pick us! I have the workers under my control, while Mo has the trade—"
Lan stopped abruptly as Vince, Alexandra, Chloe, Steven, Josh, and Bobbi walked towards Sunny and his group, positioning themselves staunchly behind them.
"…..?!"
The two heads and their factions watched in shock as all the soldiers, one by one, moved to stand behind Sunny. In less than five minutes, every single soldier was now aligned with Sunny, leaving Mo and Lan isolated with only their personal retinues.
"…..?!"
Mo looked behind him, seeing nothing but his own men and empty space. He then sharply turned to Mila, who stood with her people. "What about you, Head Mila! Don't tell me you're joining him!" he yelled, a tremor of disbelief in his voice.
'These fools don't know the force behind this Kid,' Mila thought, observing the scene. 'He might be a Sky Rank, but his strength is far from that… Not only that, millions of troops are behind him, ready for his command… If he really wants our territories, he wouldn't have to go through all this. He could just give a single order to the mercenaries, and we would be wiped out… Only a fool would pick the wrong side.'
With these thoughts solidifying her resolve, Mila walked towards Sunny, her people following closely behind. They all took their places behind him, an unspoken declaration of their allegiance.
"…?!"
Mo, Lan, and their remaining followers were utterly stunned. But Sunny, addressing the people still standing behind the two heads, spoke.
"Are you really going to risk your lives for them?" he asked with a sigh. "I know most of you have lovers, friends, and families behind me. Will you stand there and die, or will you rather come over here and live with them?" He shook his head sadly. "Oh well… It seems you all are simply brainless. Your lovers and friends will surely forget you, and you will be known as traitors for life." He raised his sword. "Okay then… Don't force my—"
"—I will join!!"
"Me too!"
"Same!!!"
"...?!"
Mo and Lan looked over their shoulders in shock as their people rushed towards Sunny's side, abandoning them.
"How dare you!?!!"
Unable to restrain their anger, the two unleashed their skills on the fleeing individuals, sending two blasts of raw energy from their hands.
"....?!"
BOOOOOM!!!
The people, who had already closed their eyes in fear, slowly opened them, seeing an impenetrable wall of energy now standing before them.
"Look at the people you joined?!" Sunny lowered the wall and walked forward, passing the stunned Snake Clan and Wolf Clan members. "They wanted to kill you all without even batting an eye, and you call them heads, leaders of your clan…" As he spoke, his ivory skin began to glow, and a wolf tattoo appeared on his chest.
{Master activated his first Bloodline, Fenrir God Wolf…}
"…..?!"
The two ancestral heads took a step backward, feeling Sunny's celestial energy continue to surge, an overwhelming force.
"What the fuck is happening?! He is just a Sky Rank! Why is his celestial energy as strong as a Divine Rank?!" Lan asked in mild horror, his voice barely a whisper.
"Forget that! We must kill him!" Mo roared, activating all his celestial energy. He shot toward Sunny, unleashing a powerful punch aimed directly at his face. "Die, you bastar—"
WHOOSH!!!!
"...?!"
Everyone froze. They watched as Mo stood motionless, his hand still outstretched in attack, as Sunny calmly walked past him, heading directly towards Lan.
Lan watched in dawning horror as Mo's head finally rolled down from his neck, falling with a THUD! followed by his body collapsing.
"Did…? Did… you see him move?!" Mila asked in horror, while the group behind her shook their heads, their faces pale with shock.
'I am a Celestial Rank, but I couldn't even follow his move? This kid is hiding his strength,' she thought, utterly bewildered.
"You! What?! How! You!!" Lan stammered, scrambling backward as Sunny continued to advance towards him.
"I promised my wife, none of her people will die with me around, and you almost made me fail her," Sunny said with an emotionless tone, his eyes fixed on Lan.
Lan, without a second thought, shot into the air, attempting to flee.
"What a pathetic escape."
With a thought, chains shot out from the ground, wrapped around Lan's body, and dragged him violently to the ground.
BAM!!!!
He collided heavily on the earth, throwing up a mouthful of blood. "You!" he hissed, staring at Sunny, who now stood directly before him.
"Die!" Sunny raised his sword and slashed down, separating Lan's head from his body in a swift, brutal motion.
{Master killed two Celestial rank, 10 stage warriors and gained 2,000 EXP…}
{Master gained enough Energy to enter the Master rank and unlock his second Bloodline.}
{Does Master want to start the process?}
Sunny stood still, staring at the headless body, his gaze indifferent.
From this day henceforth, the lone man from Earth, with nothing but a name, was gone. The figure standing before everyone was now Sunny, the new King of the Beastify Nation, and he wouldn't back down until all nations bowed.
"Soldiers, get ready… Tomorrow, after welcoming the rest of our people, we are attacking the Ogre City!!" he commanded, while the soldiers nodded in understanding, their faces filled with renewed determination.

[Some Miles From the Ogre's City.]
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
A cloaked figure, Jinx, ran through the forest, moving with incredible speed. Behind her, ten ogres, hot on her tail, pursued relentlessly.
'Shit!! Stepfather asked me to come here! But I entered these fools' territory! How the hell can I locate the Beastify Nation on this planet?!!' Jinx thought, pushing herself to increase her speed.
WHOOSH!!!
She looked up, seeing a bullet heading directly towards her.
"…..?!"
With a swift, practiced movement, she dodged the bullet and came to an abrupt stop. Jinx looked up at the trees, seeing ogres perched on all the branches, all armed with guns – all Rare Class weapons.
"....?!" She was stunned.
"Do you really think you can escape?!" A huge, green-skinned ogre walked towards her, gripping his battleaxe tightly.
"Yep! Your skill is useful, and you will surely fetch a good price," another ogre said, his green eyes fixed on her with a predatory gaze.
"Okay… Surrender," the ogre with the axe sneered.
"Surrender? I am not running again."
Jinx drew her dagger, bracing herself to face the now fifteen Ogre warriors surrounding her.
"Hahahaha!" The two leading ogres let out a loud laugh, while their leader ordered, "Capture her! Remember… Don't injure her face!"
The ogres nodded, and simultaneously, they all lunged towards Jinx.
