Guild Wars

The Morningstar World was quite busy today despite being barely any different from how it had been almost ten years ago. If there was one notable difference to note, it would be that the Plane that formed the center of the budding Universe had become much more occupied.

Previously, only a small part of the area had been occupied by the Clan Elders of the Morningstar Clan which comprised of the former concubines of Draco who had been given official titles following Eva's reshuffling of the entire clan.

(AN: Best to read Chapter 1101 before continuing.)

The houses that they adopted had previously been scattered in a general area based on their natures and preferences. During those 10 years, the center point of the plane had been turned into a small town that was occupied by the 60 Clan Elders and their progeny, who numbered over a hundred and fifty.

These were the second-generation children of the Morningstar Clan and the future Branch Leaders. Naturally, they would have to establish themselves first, but seeing as the currently oldest among them was 14 years old and the youngest was only 6 this would still be some time off.

Currently, they were all enrolled in the Morningstar Academy in the town at the center of the Plane, which was led by those with the Grandmaster Rank in Teaching among the Goddess Descendant wives that Draco took in back then.

Every Goddess Descendant had been at the Master Rank in a Tradeskill 10 years ago and given the nourishment of various benefits of the Morningstar World, they were inches away from becoming True Gods of their Tradeskills.

On top of that, the human maids of the Rank 7 castle had also taken it upon themselves to learn Tradeskill using the resources provided them, painstakingly becoming Grandmaster after so long.

60 female Grandmasters in one realm, all with different Tradeskills, most of them fundamental. It was obvious that the unnamed town in which the Morningstar Clan had set up for itself in the center of the Plane did not need any outside interference to run.

It was monolithic in nature, fully capable of sustaining itself.

Farming? Animal Husbandry? Mining? Smithing? Alchemy? Brewing?

Medicine? Divination? Administration? Engineering (Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, Biological, etc)? Teaching? Fishing?

Hunting? Gathering? Woodworking? Tailoring? Gem Crafting?

All of it was present here. The Clan Elders handled most of the day-to-day affairs to ensure the town's sustenance while all the children had to do was frequent two places, the academy in the center of the town for elite education on topics selected by the Ancestor himself and the training grounds manned by another Clan Elder skilled in battle for combat training.

The rest of their time was spent living as normal children, playing with each other, getting into scraps and even visiting the outside world. Nobody stopped them from leaving as long as they asked for permission and handled themselves sensibly.

But with everything at their fingertips, why go out? Also, despite the free choice, they were dissuaded from going out until they reached the age of 15, which was considered as 'matured' according to the AI's standards for in-game children with players as parents.

This was when they would be granted their own character panels and inventories, able to gain experience to grow stronger like players and NPCs. Until then, if they didn't have special things like the bloodlines they possessed, they would be no different from normal children.

The children were right now undergoing various specialized training plans. Draco himself had taken the time to come up with an individual one for each of them based on their personalities and their talents. The Morningstar Clan would never make the mistake of doing standardized training for everyone, which would be inefficient and harmful to their growth.

Today, their mentors were not around, as the two of them had gone to the main plane in order to ascend. That's right, the mentors in terms of combat training for the entire Clan were two of the three Immortal Clan Mistresses, Jada and Jade!

This did not deter the children as they had their training plan and would diligently follow it for they knew their mother's rankings among the Clan Elders depended on it. Right now, none of them had awakened their panels so their mothers were temporarily ranked equally but that would change in but a few years.

If one panned to the town, one would find the Clan Elders themselves bustling about their various tasks, ensuring everything on their side ran smoothly. Given their fully sustainable society, there was no need for the use of currency as everything was provided for free and in abundance.

This was not only due to their notable effort, but also thanks to the Eternal Tree which sat in the center of the town, its branches swaying majestically as it released endless energy that filled every corner of the budding universe till it was saturated.

With such a helper, how could it be possible to lack?

Interestingly, one would note that the town was also populated by strangely designed homes though they were in the same locale. Some had elemental features making them resemble miniature forests, some were dark and gloomy while some were rocky and mountainous, the variety present but strangely not jarring.

Most notable among them were the three houses spread equidistantly around the Eternal Tree. The one to the southern end was a small cottage that was surrounded by a vile bog, seemingly inhospitable and unwelcoming to passersby. A huge cauldron was set up outside that was filled with bubbling broth that had human bones, eyeballs and pieces of rotten apples within.

In the northwestern-most corner stood a dark, seemingly deserted mansion that looked frankly haunted. It wouldn't be surprising to find a vampire residing inside, exuding European nobility and architecture, as well as an aura of vicissitudes and sinister intentions. Just looking at it gave one the creeps, evoking an instinctive desire to step back and avoid it entirely.

To the northeastern-most side, there was a tall Dragonperch which was shaped like a spiral tower with a large platform at the top which concealed what lay up there from view. The body was painted a shade of milky white and seemed to carry holy intention.

These three buildings formed the core of the town and belonged to the three Ancestral Clan Mistress whose status were only below the Ancestors of the clan. However, in the past ten years, these homes had hardly been occupied, only very occasionally when the Ancestral Clan Mistress would return from the Divine Realm for various reasons.

Outside this inner circle was another circle which was set up with the homes of the three Immortal Clan Mistresses, Rina, Jada and Jade, also meant for their children. Rina had given birth to four boys over the years, ranking second in the clan in terms of lust towards the Ancestor and seventh in terms of the most numerous children.

Jada and Jade each gave birth to one girl, and although these cousins came from different wombs, they were so identical to each other that they were mostly treated as twins. Their uncanny resemblance made it nigh impossible to differentiate the two, who frequently forgot that the girls were not actually sisters.

Aside from these homes which were frequently used by the three Immortal Clan Mistresses as they shuffled to and from the Morningstar World to fulfill their various duties, there was also a small pavilion to the side styled with motifs of dragon and phoenixes coiling together, where the two Ancestors spent their time cultivating or teaching the children interesting things.

One would often find Tianzi, the Dragon Ancestor, happily sparring with Nakiu, the Immortal Lord from the Eastern Fantasy section, the two trading blows at their full power. Their power could normally cause continents to quake and worlds to ripple but it could barely cause shockwaves in the powerful and stable Morningstar World.

Elementals flashed as various dharma powers were used without restraint, causing both old men to be full of excitement and laughter, calling out their attacks dramatically while holding nothing back.

Meanwhile, Xue'er, the Phoenix Ancestor, softly watched by the side with a peaceful smile while sipping tea casually. Nearby, Richmond was also leaning in a lawn chair while sunbathing, magical tomes floating in front of him one by one as they flipped their own pages for him to read while he wore shades on.

In this period of time, all of them had long ascended to the True God rank in cultivation, which was the True Celestial realm for the two cultivators. This was four realms above their previous rank of Immortal Emperor which was equivalent to Rank 7.

Tianzi had taken the Law of Dark Destruction while Xue'er adopted the Law of Bright Creation. Nakiu had the Law of Martial Essence while Richmond naturally took on the Law of Subjective Magic.

Near the pavilion area was a smaller Dragonperch which was styled in a blazing red and silver color. On top of it, one could see a lively female Dragon with a sleek body, pristine wings and large grey eyes filled with maturity and vivacity.

Her sleek silvery scales gleamed in the light, and she lay lazily on the perch, her snout being nuzzled by two smaller dragonlings. One which was blue in color and another which was yellow, both of them male.

This was Chrona, the esoteric wife of Clarent who started out from a mere Wyrm that he nurtured into her current state. With her were Walsh and Briar, the sons of Clarent that he had fostered recently after confirming Chrona's heritage.

Near this Dragonperch was a small safari-like savannah area marked with a large rocky outcrop. In the grass-like area, a young lioness was prancing about happily, crashing into the ground and creating a ruckus while laughing in a sweet voice.

She had the typical golden brown coat of a lioness that was sleek, only that her tail was one of a scorpion stinger that was a blackish-green color, looking sinister despite her cute bearing.

Meanwhile, by the side was another lioness that was very similar to a manticore, with golden brown fur, black eyeshadow around her eyes and a scorpion stinger for a tail. She also had folded eagle wings on her back.

She was currently flipping through a book with a pair of glasses on her eyes, reading patiently despite the ruckus.

Atop the rocky outcrop was a humanoid female with pure golden skin. Her head was adorned with a black and yellow striped headdress, complete with a small cobra figure on top, carrying an Egyptian theme.

Her eyes were sleek while her irises glowed purple, framed by black eyeliner that extended slightly below her eyes. Her expression was stern and confident, with a slight frown and raised eyebrows as she looked down on everything.

She was dressed in a simple yet elegant white dress that reached just above her knees. The dress had a high collar and was sleeveless, allowing her soft and delicate arms to be visible.

Her tail was prominently displayed, featuring the same scorpion stinger, curving upward in a poised manner at she sat on the outcrop casually.

Sheera was in her human form while watching her two daughters enjoy themselves in their interests, a touch of a sweet smile appearing on her haughty face. She glanced into the distance and could almost see her husband and his idiot friend together, preparing to cause trouble again.

Meanwhile, at the edge of the Plane, just before the void, were two beings. One was a Red Dragon and the other was a Golden Divine Lion, both of them standing on their hind legs as they held walking sticks.

Their bodies were withered and decrepit, telling of great age. Their eyes were murky and full of clouds, while they possessed long white beards that covered their faces and almost reached the ground.

While wobbling, the two seemed to silently reminisce on their youthful lives past, now that they had descended into old age.

"It's time, isn't it, old friend?' A parched and tired voice sounded from the lion.

The dragon nodded weakly while wobbling shakily. "It is…"

Suddenly, energy exploded from the two as their forms returned to normal, their bodies full of power and life as the world trembled at their revival. They grabbed the beards on their faces and tore them off, displaying vicious grins full of rapacious evil.

10 years of waiting… 10 years of suppression…

Finally they were free once more!
