<Tell everyone to retreat and help the human territory from this moment onwards. We will handle this. Go! For our Goddess! For the Yggdrasil! For the will of nature!>

The several similar artifacts, Gate of Nature that Russell Moon, along with Samantha Hall, Ayleen Mayfield, and his Chaos Companions that had set up on five strategic locations in the capital of Rainfire for the surprise invasion ejected thousands of Elven Soldiers and five Elven Commander.

Then, at this very moment, as the battle against the Vampire Lord Duradel and one of the Elders of the Elves, Elder Rah, continued to rage, the latter's voice reverberated to each Elven Commander's head, which ordered them to retreat to assist the inhabitants of the human territory that's being plunged by the Vampire Soldiers into the brink of total ruin.

With that said, Thessalia, upon hearing the order in her head, almost instantly went into action as her voice, in every Elven Soldier's head under her command, echoed through.

<Everyone, retreat! Elder Rah's orders! We'll use another gateway artifact to travel to the capital of each human nation to assist our brethren currently fighting the Vampires with all their might.>

The difference between the Vampire Soldiers in the twelfth land or Rainfire land and the Vampire Soldiers invading the Orion Continent was that the latter consisted of those that originated from the sixth up to the first Vampire Clan.

"Russell, we've been ordered to retreat. It seems it's time for the generals and major generals to come in here."

Above the Elven Commander was the Elven General, and then the Major General. Although these two ranks possessed far greater power and held more authority than the Elven Commander, they only moved if the matter was about engaging in the war itself or if the Elnira Kingdom was being threatened deep in its internal affairs.

"Alright. Let's go. We're just going to die if we stay here."

Russell Moon addressed each member of the Umbra Mercenary, both permanent and temporary such as the Princess of Etheria.

'Though Ayleen would survive or might even win against the Vampire Lord, at least against this one on the Rainfire Clan since every Vampire Lord's uniqueness has something to do with the name of the Vampire Clan.'

Russell thought, momentarily glancing at the sky where the Vampire Lord Duradel and the Elven Elder, Elder Rah were fighting, causing sonic booms to tear the air around them and echoed in the ears of everyone in the area.

As the Elven Soldiers quickly ran off towards each enormous manifestation of the Gate of Nature, the Vampire Soldiers from the other cities of Rainfire were arriving in groups, seemingly outnumbering the Elves. However, at that moment, they saw the Elves retreating, but they didn't give chase, instead, the voice of the Vampire Lord Duradel echoed in each of their heads.

<Everyone-! Go help our brethren on human territory! I will be with the others at this fight!>

The Vampire Commanders, who just arrived and those who were fighting since the invasion began, stopped for a moment as they processed the words of their lord. After some time, realizing that they were easily just to be collateral at this point because of the immense power scale of this war, along with the destructive effect of every attack, one of the vampire nobles that stayed to fight alongside the Vampire Lord addressed the Vampire Commanders.

<Stay in the gate of the palace! I will connect all of you to the others in human territory. Kill everyone that's not of our kin in sight!>

At that moment, those under the command of every Vampire Commander were informed of the order as they quickly retreated and flocked to the front gate of the palace. Then, a Vampire Duke, whose voice they heard just now, arrived and opened a crimson portal through an artifact.

[Activating the Prototype X: Crimson Pillar]

[Connecting to a random Crimson Pillar that has been established.]

[Coordinates have been detected.]

[Permission has been granted.]

[Connection has been synchronized.]

The Eight-Point Crimson Pillar or the approximate eight artifacts that's enveloping the entire Orion Continent had a prototype, which was only to be utilized if necessary. Although it might weaken the effects of the genuine ones for the moment, its benefits outweighed the slight temporary advantage.

With that, a gigantic crimson portal connected to a random Crimson Pillar opened. The Vampire Army then entered the portal and traversed through thousands of kilometers to part of the Orion Continent, leaving their lord and the other vampire nobles. They knew in their wretched heart that their new home would now be unsalvageable.

***

In the capital of Cassiopeia, Alapeia, where the Vampire General, "Anne", the one who impersonated one of the professors in a training center, and the one who initiated establishing the Eight-Point Crimson Pillar, was guarding the artifact itself.

Then, after an unknown period of time since the invasion of the human territory started, the crimson portal, one of the effects of the artifact, swirled. She was then notified of the sudden changes as she read the information shown by the System.

[Prototype X: Crimson Pillar attempts to connect with the Zeroth Crimson Pillar.]

[The permission for its connection is by the operator's will.]

[Grant it permission?]

As a Vampire General, being knowledgeable of such circumstances, Anne granted permission for access.

"Permission granted."

[Prototype X: Crimson Pillar has been connected to the Zeroth Crimson Pillar.]

[Synchronization has been established!]

At that moment, several Vampire Commanders appeared and recognized the woman standing nonchalantly.

"We greet General Anne of the Crimson Army."

Following that, the Vampire Soldiers gradually appeared, numbering thousands.

'What a bloody fest this would be!'

Feeling delighted at the appearance of the backup, who seemed unnecessary at the moment, Vampire General Anne queried.

"What clan are you all from, and what's the situation?"

The first Vampire Commander who had taken the initiative as they arrived, responded in a serious manner.

"We are from the Rainfire Clan, and our lord has tasked us to be additional manpower in invading the human territory.

"On the other hand, the situation of the Rainfire land is in dire straits because of the sudden invasion of the Elves and numerous Humans. After that, the lord engaged in a battle against one of the Elven Elders.

"With his order, we realized that our home will be turned into ash soon enough."

Pondering the answer of the certain Vampire Commander, Vampire General Anne understood the order of the Vampire Lord Duradel.

'Infrastructure can be rebuilt, so it's fine over time. But to think that there's an unexpected attack from them… Ha… This is fascinating.'

"I see. Apart from additional manpower, is there any order from your lord?"

"No, but before coming here, the Duke told us to kill everyone that's not our kin on sight."

"Alright. Suit yourselves. I'm sure there's a squad under each of you, commanders, right? I'll brief you on all of the current situations so listen carefully."

After less than ten minutes, Vampire General Anne informed them of the current state of the war. She then took out something from her Dimensional Inventory and handed them over to each Vampire Commander before assigning them a respective group mission.

"A map…? This looks advanced."

Several digital maps were handed, causing some confusion to others since the printing technology of the Vampire Race was simply nonexistent. However, the map in their hands was thorough, where the cities of the nations of the Orion Continent could be read.

"Don't ask any questions."

General Anne spoke in a casual manner before telling every squad their missions.

On the outskirts of the Disruption land, one of the Vampire Lands corresponded to the eleventh Vampire Clan.

"Miss Scarlet, is this a training session? This won't be left undiscovered."

Han Jiho asked curiously. After some time, instead of rushing into the seemingly impenetrable fortress of whatever city of the Disruption land they were in, Scarlet Netherdawn discreetly kidnapped Vampire Soldiers and lets Han Jiho fight with the said soldier.

"Don't worry about it. I'm certain that they noticed that some of their comrades are missing."

For some reason, the nonchalant professor could utilize a skill that seemed to separate Han Jiho and the unlucky Vampire Soldier, not allowing the latter to run. It's like a separated space or barrier, but concealed in the eyes of the outside world.

"Scarlet, can you stop playing with him?"

At that moment, a familiar voice resounded in Han Jiho's ears and Scarlet's. Though the latter already knew the arrival of the presence, Han Jiho was genuinely surprised.

"A-Alexander?"

"Jiho, it's time to level up your training session. We'll be raiding this city. Since it's not the capital, the Vampire Lord will be far away, at least."

Han Jiho paused for a moment and realized almost instantly the meaning of Alexander's words.

"D-do you mean like right now?!"

"Yes."

Scarlet just watched from the side, her thoughts deep.

<Freya, are you sure you want to come with me? You better be with Mom and Dad.>

Russell Moon asked his younger sister through telepathic communication. They just arrived in the Elnira Kingdom through the Gate of Nature, but they were preparing already to depart to the Orion Continent to help the others in fending off the vampire's invasion.

<Yes, Oppa. If I were with them, I would just be bombarded with questions after it happens.>

Freya responded, to which Russell agreed after some consideration.

<Alright then. Let's go. I want to see what Lunaria looks like.>

It was now time to fulfill the first mission in Russell Moon's Star Quest.
