"That is why I\'m rather curious…" Scott asked, expressing his doubts for the first time. "How, no, when did you hear about this Angelic Invasion? There\'s no way you just heard about it…"

"Uhm," the crimson-purple haired girl nodded with a stoic and distant expression. "First, before I answer your question, tell your Generals to come save their planet, I don\'t get paid to save it…" 

Her blank expression and her sincerity, even the small hint of annoyance in her tone, told Scott that she was not joking.

She was only doing her best because she didn\'t want to see her friends suffer or get hurt.

"Second, to answer your questions," she continued. "I heard about the invasion in the Demon Plane," She said as she subconsciously looked towards Alka who was still kneeling obediently. 

"Ah, Alka," she called as if just realising her mistake. She had completely forgotten about her loyal subordinate. "Apologies for keeping you occupied. Feel free to follow Kayla\'s signal and observe the matches with her. She\'s apparently fighting someone interesting right now, you might find it fun to watch," her smile was kind and gentle.

"Please don\'t apologize, my mistress," Alka said while bowing her head down further. "It is my pleasure to be in your presence. However, I will gladly do as you\'ve ordered. I will go towards young mistress Kayla. Please call for me whenever you need me, my mistress." 

"Uhm, thank you," the girl replied with a smile. With a respectful nod, the Devil Lord disappeared from her spot.

Scott subconsciously gasped. \'That Devil Lord is definitely stronger than I am… far stronger…\'

"Anyhow," Raven resumed, looking towards Scott. "I heard about the angelic invasion while investigating something in the Demon Plane. Apparently, the angels wanted to recruit one of their fallen angels to do their bidding."

"Oh, a fallen angel?" Scott asked. "What happened to it?"

"The fallen angel and his subordinates are no longer a danger," she simply replied, sending chills down Scott\'s back. "As for your last question, I first heard about it three weeks ago."

"What?! Why did you only tell us now?" Scott blurted out in surprise, shock, and rage.

"You need to control your rage in my presence if you\'re even considering my offer of becoming my subordinate…" The girl said as if she was giving him advice that would end up saving his life. "You see, some of my existing subordinates… err, can get quite emotional, I guess, when someone is disrespectful to me."

Scott swallowed loudly, although his gaze was still as fierce since he was concerned with their lost time. They could have done so much to prepare in three weeks.

"To address your question though," the girl continued, noticing his gaze. "I was busy. I could not contact anyone, not even my subordinates, for most of those three weeks." She still remembered her strange Mana Refinement training. 

"I- I see," Scott was not satisfied, but he knew he could do nothing about it. 

The girl continued to speak nonchalantly.

"My subordinates, however, have been working hard to conquer the portals. I am assuming you\'ve noticed a massive decrease in the number of portals around?"

"Uhm," Scott nodded silently. He had found it wired, but it was for the good so he hadn\'t questioned it much. Although he had sent many teams to guard the portals as precautions for these weird activities, there were never any reports of anyone being around. It was almost as if it was the doing of a ghost. A ghost was clearing the portals quietly without anyone realising.

He subconsciously shivered at that thought.

"Good," the girl simply said. "Clearing out the portals gives us more than one advantage in this coming invasion.

"First of all, we increase the resistance of the planet by increasing the amount of magiculus in the air. I will not elaborate." She said while thinking about the increase in Gaia\'s rank. Gaia needed to survive for everyone else to survive. If the planet gets destroyed, everyone dies.

Scott didn\'t understand what she was talking about but he nodded since she didn\'t want to elaborate. \'Less stuff to worry about…\' he thought while quietly smiling to himself. 

His mind was chaotic already with the preparation for the coming alien war. This angelic invasion had brought its own headaches and he wasn\'t ready for such a thing.

"Second of all, I am gaining some precious materials and minerals that are needed, or rather can be beneficial, for creating helpful equipment and weapons," she thought back to Kayla\'s request. 

Although she could create almost anything from Cyber Matter, having a strong base for her creation ought to increase their strength and efficiency, allowing her to mass produce for the army whenever possible. 

Additionally, that would ensure self sufficient equipment that she didn\'t not always pay attention to. In a sense, it was comfortable for her this way.

\'Usually, any loot that is taken from a place that is considered a battlefield belongs to the government. This means that those minerals and materials…\' Scott instantly shook his head. \'What am I saying? We\'re all on the same side here! We all want to save the planet we cherish!\'

"Third of all," the girl continued, ignoring Scott\'s quivering eyebrows. "I am able to gather more subordinates that will help us survive through the invasion.

"Lastly, we are undoubtedly helping raise the citizens\' morale by giving them the peace of mind they need, for now at least. Less portals means less chance of monster attacks.

"This will show the people that someone, supposedly the EDA, is taking care of things. We had already overcome one invasion attempt, namely the portal incident, so why not overcome the second as well? I hope this all makes sense, Scott."

"Uhm, I understand," Scott nodded before lowering his head. This young girl was doing so much while he was unaware of many changes around him. "What is the estimated time of attack? Err, I mean when do you think the invasion would start?"

"I am not sure," the girl shook her head in disappointment. "Be vigilant. Always be prepared. That\'s all we can do for now. Make sure to do your part. At this time, you need to start sending out rankers to help with evacuations to the safe havens and bunkers while you start training, you understand that, right?"

"Yes… yes ma\'am," a weak smile appeared on his face.

*Sigh*

"Good," the girl said with a sigh before disappearing from her spot.

\'Become her subordinate huh… doesn\'t sound that bad to be honest, she\'s pretty reliable…\' looking at the bright blue sky above, Scott\'s smile widened.

"Ho~ you seem pretty happy," a teasing voice called from behind him, almost giving him a heart attack. 

"F*CK!!" Scott yelled in frustration all of a sudden. 

"Hm, such vulgar choice of words," the teasing voice said with a frown. "I guess I\'ll have to teach you more harshly! I have been practicing well during these past three weeks as well, I could use a test dummy!" The Voice sounded a bit too happy.

"To think that you\'d be the one teaching me…" Scott gritted his teeth. "You b*tch of a dragon."

"Uhm, it\'s determined then," the voice suddenly became louder and more violent as a strong suffocating aura covered the area, drowning the air in a deep crimson hue. "I will need to use my old torture methods as the Crimson Monarch of- *cough* I mean teaching methods! It\'s time to use the good old teaching methods of the Crimson Monarch of Contracts!"
