After finishing the talk with Sanguik, Mirage Queen sighed inwardly and walked into
another room.
Seated across an exquisite red table, the virtual avatars of the Abyss Kings and Queens were waiting for her.
Since the war began, the Abyss Rulers had already duked it out with the Sovereigns and injured each other badly.
Now, both sides are recuperating.
Mirage Queen observed her colleagues as she took her seat and rested her gaze on Demon King.
Everyone had some form of injury or another. Even though they were in new armor, and clothes, either their hairs were slightly disheveled or their faces were still pale or their bodies still had marks of injuries.
But Demon King seemed perfectly fine. No bruises, no fatigue, nothing. He was too perfect and that's why Mirage Queen called him out. "Did you get beaten up so badly that you're using an avatar?"
Demon King gave her a sharp glare before shifting his focus back to the meeting.

The remaining rulers, however, were still looking at her with an inquisitive gaze.
"Sanguik is ready to sacrifice himself," Mirage Queen sighed deeply.
The Abyss Rulers sighed in unison. Even though no one said it out loud, a sense of shame spread throughout the strongest Abyssals in the solar system.
The shame broke Thunder King's threshold prompting him to lower his head. "To ask our own younger generation to sacrifice their lives to kill a human, how pathetic."
"Thunder King!" Sin King, the most senior Abyssal Ruler, slammed the table. "Watch your words."
"What?" Thunder King looked up at the senior fearlessly. "Do you even know what we're doing by sacrificing Sanguik? It isn't just a genius level 8, but also a future Celestial Ranker.
He's a future pillar for the providence trial and against the Zions. But we're using him for what? A suicide killer against someone who's not even a level 9! Give me a break!"
A sudden unease filled the room as the two youngest and eldest Abyss Rulers stared at each other.
Sanguik was equivalent to Charles of the federation. One of the very best geniuses. Sending him on a suicide mission didn't sit well with most Abyss Rulers.
But their personal opinions were of little weight in front of racial interests. As the most senior person in the room, Sin King had this concept more hammered in than anyone else.
So, Sin King shook his head with a firm expression. "Be it a genius or a commoner, survival of the race is paramount. If Varian survives, then even if we win this war, that evil bastard will destroy us once he becomes a Sovereign."
"Oh really? With his six or seven paths?" Fire King intervened and gave the Sin King a questioning gaze. "To have so many powers, he's surely a variant hybrid. And you know this right? Hybrids have a hard time reaching Sovereign state, much less the Celestial Rank."
"What you say is very good," Despair Queen gave a contemptuous laugh. "But did we ever prove that Varian is a hybrid? And as far as I can remember, there are no hybrids who have 7 powers."
Fire King fell silent realizing that he was always treating Varian as a Hybrid without any proper proof. Thunder King also had no answer.
Only the calm Sin King responded with a contemplative expression. "We don't really know what he is. But we can only treat him with common sense. According to common sense, he can only be a hybrid. Unless propped with enough support, Hybrids are likely to not reach Sovereign state, much less the Celestial ranks."

"And that's where you're wrong." Despair Queen joined the argument as she gnashed her teeth. "Common sense? You want to treat him with common sense? Do any hybrid reach level 8 in three months?"
"Maybe he got precious resources from the ruins…"

"Oh please. He needs to be killed off once and for all. Even if ten Sanguiks need to be sacrificed, Varian has to die." Despair Queen was firm in her stance.
In fact, if they send Sanguik back to the Abyss Empire, there was a good chance the Emperor could prevent the boy from dying.
But…
"He wants to die with glory. Let him." Mirage Queen said as she recalled her short conversation with the Abyssal genius.
Even though she didn't agree with Despair Queen's words, the overall situation demanded her to take that approach.
And her words also prevented any further arguments. They couldn't save a person who doesn't want to be saved.
The attention then shifted to Despair Queen or to be precise, the large red coffin behind her.
The coffin was wrapped in the Abyss Empire flag and was inscribed with a farewell message by the Emperor himself.
Despair Queen slowly raised her hand and the coffin lying on the ground stood up in a vertical position.
The Abyss Kings and Queens stood up at the same time and gave the coffin a deep bow.
"Even though we have your consent, forgive us for what we're about to do." Despair Queen prayed.
Once the ritual was over, the rulers presented a shining crystal each and these crystals concurrently formed a single common screen in the hologram.
Many numbers were smashed together from each crystal and after a few minutes of intense calculation, a number materialized.
[47%]
The tension on the Abyss Rulers melted away and was replaced by strong anticipation.
"Soon…" Mirage Queen smiled frantically.
"Once it hits 50%, we can start the immediate step. But we have to wait until 100% for him." Sin King reminded the half-crazy woman.
"No worries. Once we take the next step, the killing rate would spike. We'll hit 100% soon." Despair Queen replied. "I really want to see the expressions of humans when we send a new Sovereign."
The Abyss Rulers looked at the coffin once again and smiled collectively.
A new Abyss Sovereign.
He was enough to subvert the entire war.
An hour later, the number on the screen finally reached 50%.
When it did, an invisible shockwave spread throughout the solar system.
In a corner of one of the many planetoids ravaged by this war, the corpses of humans and Abyssals were littered across the ground as the war continued on in other areas.
When this invisible shockwave touched them, the fingers of a corpse began to shake.
