The Successor.

On the day of the successor's announcement, the entire population of Earth-666 gathered before the grand Eldermyst family guild, eagerly anticipating the revelation of their new ruler. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation and curiosity as the people speculated on who would ascend to the throne.

Inside the Eldermyst family guild, the council meeting was in full swing. The top floor, heavily guarded and warded, hosted the gathering of subsidiaries and family elders. The tension in the air was palpable as everyone waited for the current family head and mistress to make their entrance.

The doors swung open, revealing Maximilian Eldermyst, the current family head. Cloaked in white robes with golden-plated edges, he exuded a radiant aura. Despite his playful demeanor and reputation as a notorious womanizer, Maximilian had ruled over the Eldermyst family for almost five centuries, fathering 15 children with four official wives. 

The family mistress, Isabella Eldermyst, stood beside him, her beauty transcending mortal realms. Although their positions suggested authority, it was apparent that there was a strain in their relationship.

As Maximilian and Isabella took their seats at the table, the council meeting commenced. The Eldermyst family, known for its complex power dynamics and intricate political maneuvers, held its breath in anticipation of the successor's announcement.

The grand hall of the Eldermyst family guild was filled with an air of tension as Maximilian and Isabella engaged in a heated conversation.

Isabella, her eyes reflecting years of weariness, addressed Maximilian with a sigh. "Finally, I can relax from this exhausting responsibility. It seems playing and indulging in entertainment have become your only duties, leaving me to take care of your responsibilities as well."

Maximilian, leaning back with a nonchalant demeanor, responded, "Yeah, you always say that. But where were you the past ten years?"

"If I leave, maybe you'll change and show some responsibility," Isabella retorted.

Maximilian, with a self-satisfied grin, asserted, "I increased revenue and expanded the family to various planets. I've done more in ten years than you did in 480."

Isabella, her patience wearing thin, countered, "Because I built relations with the planets. All you did was use my connections to build on top of it."

Their exchange unfolded in the grand hall, witnessed by bystanders who observed in an awkward silence. The intricate power dynamics and long-standing resentments within the Eldermyst family were laid bare in this confrontation.

As the verbal sparring continued, the golden door creaked open, and the atmosphere shifted. The seer, a venerable figure whose presence demanded respect, entered the hall.

Bystanders and family members instinctively bowed as she made her way to a small chair beside Maximilian.

Breaking the heavy silence, the seer declared, "Let the succession begin." The words hung in the air, marking the beginning of a pivotal moment that would determine the family's future.

The grand hall hushed as Seraphina and Evangelene, the two candidates for succession, stepped forward to face the seer. The air seemed to shimmer with anticipation as the seer, a figure revered for her foresight, observed them with piercing eyes.

Maximilian, now seated, inquired, "Seer, who among them is deemed worthy to ascend to the throne of the Eldermyst family?"

"The choice is not mine to make," the seer continued, "but yours, members of the council. Each candidate bears strengths and weaknesses. Consider the ties that bind and the webs that entangle. Cast your votes wisely, for the chosen successor will guide the family's fate into uncharted realms."

the seer asked the council members will vote for the candidate and the decree will be read by the current family head.

Eva interrupted the voting before it begun and spoke.

"Pardon for my intrusion, before the voting i want to provide you all with some materials the evidence of my dear sister Seraphina is working with Olympians to force and suppress the people of Kethra".

The grand hall fell into a stunned silence as Evangelene presented the damning evidence against Seraphina. The revelation of her collaboration with the Olympians to exploit and oppress another planet cast a shadow over the proceedings.

Seraphina, caught off guard, stammered, "This is an outrageous lie! How could you possibly have such information?"

Eva remained composed, her eyes unwavering as she responded, "The truth has a way of revealing itself, and I took the necessary steps to uncover it. The Eldermyst family cannot be led by someone entangled in such dark dealings."

Maximilian, the current family head, sighed deeply, realizing the gravity of the situation. "This evidence must be examined thoroughly before any decision is made. If these allegations are true, they could alter the course of this family's future."

The seer, her expression unreadable, nodded in agreement. "The integrity of the Eldermyst lineage must be preserved. We shall adjourn for a brief recess to examine the evidence, and then the council will proceed with the voting."

As the council members dispersed to review the evidence, Seraphina shot a venomous glance at Evangelene. "You may have delayed the inevitable, but you won't escape the consequences of your actions."

After checking the evidence brought by Eva, the council declared, Seraphina is guilty.

Seraphina, faced with the consequences of her actions, seethed with anger and frustration. Eva, however, remained composed, her gaze steady on her sister.

Maximilian, acknowledging the gravity of the situation, continued, "Seraphina Eldermyst, for the crimes you have committed against our family's principles and the suffering you've inflicted on another planet, your candidacy is hereby revoked. You will be demoted from your position as a guild executive to a guild member, and all your assets shall be frozen until further notice."

Seraphina, in disbelief, shouted, "It's time!" expecting her allies to intervene. Yet, to her dismay, no one responded. Eva's smile widened, revealing the strategic move she had made.

Seraphina, frustrated and defeated, turned to Eva, demanding, "What did you do?"

Eva, still smiling, responded calmly, "I anticipated your actions and made arrangements to ensure nothing could interfere with the council's proceedings. The evidence stands, and justice will be served."

The council, now solemn and determined, reconvened to proceed with the voting for the successor. Seraphina, stripped of her candidacy and authority, was left to contemplate the consequences of her betrayal. 

Eva maintained her composure, knowing that the revelations had tilted the scales in her favor.

-In The Space-

In the vastness of space, a fleet assembled by the mysterious organization moved swiftly towards Earth-666. Seraphina, having lost her position within the Eldermyst family, triggered a desperate response. The organization, known as "The Liberators," mobilized its forces in response to Seraphina's call for action.

The fleet comprised 4000 soldiers, a mix of regular knights and one heroic knight serving as their leader. The heroic knight, a formidable force on their own, led the troops with the intent to unleash chaos upon the planet.

The soldiers, clad in advanced armor and armed with powerful weapons, approached Earth-666 with a singular objective: to carry out Seraphina's destructive orders. As the fleet entered the planet's atmosphere, ominous shadows cast by the spacecraft hinted at the impending threat that loomed over the Eldermyst family and its inhabitants. The peaceful planet, caught in the crossfire of family disputes and mysterious external forces, awaited the outcome of the impending clash.
