Opportunity Even in Defeat

The Rune Realm's specialty, thanks to the intent behind its creation, allowed the Rune Realm Spirit to open portals connecting to the other realms. This was a tremendous power. 

Now that it was in the hands of the Kun Realm, they basically obtained an advantage, allowing them to seize the initiative and travel to any realm they pleased. The other realms wouldn't like this... normally, that is.

But, there was one thing that made them like such a development. 

The Kun Realm didn't have a Realm Spirit yet. Without a Realm Spirit, it would be impossible for them to annex the Tilk Realm. 

Secondly, there were 12,000 years left for the Mong Realm to collapse. So, that meant that the Mong Realm would focus all its attention on saving itself. 

But if the Tilk Realm were to suddenly vanish, then the Mong Realm's plans would be pushed back further. With their deadline approaching closely, they would attack another realm with full force.
