Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates

The two walked around the village and asked the locals for information, learning that it was called the Republic of Dalmecchia.

It is a completely parliamentary country without a king. Most of the men in the town have gone to war, and recently the Iron Kingdom launched an invasion against them.

"The mighty Titan will surely defeat the invaders."

"Yes, those Iron Kingdom scum are no match for Lord Titan," several villagers said.

"Titans? Who are these Titans you're talking about?" Alice asked.

She'd heard that name many times recently, on their planet, using the power of magic crystals.

You can summon a Titan, a creature made entirely of rock and clay, but it's just a monster three or four meters tall that usually only helps in battle.

The Titans that Rhodes mentioned are top-tier life forms born from the core of a planet, possessing unimaginable power.

Can planets be arbitrarily modified and life created? Is there a Titan in this new world as well?

"Titan is Lord Hugo Kupka! He can transform into a giant Titan that is hundreds of meters tall."

"He is the most powerful, the guardian deity of our country," a boy of only thirteen or fourteen years old said excitedly.

"A hundred meters! Fight as a hundred-meter giant!" Alice looked surprised.

She knew all too well the destructive power of a 100-meter-tall giant; even without any special abilities, they were an incredibly terrifying fighting force.

"Lord Titan also possesses the power to manipulate the earth and is the most powerful manifestation. When I grow up, I want to join his army." The boy who spoke seemed very excited.

"Can you tell me what a Manifestation Being is?" Alice asked.

Alice and Rhodes soon learned from some local villagers who the Manifestation One was.

The Manifestations are the most powerful beings on this continent. Each of them possesses unimaginable power, making them capable of destroying entire nations.

They can transform into gigantic summoned beasts, possessing the ability to manipulate corresponding attributes. The people of this small village obviously couldn't possibly know about the manifesters from other countries; they only knew that the manifester Titan from their own country was the strongest.

Having obtained the information they wanted, Rhodes and Alice decided to leave the village and head to the front lines they had mentioned.

It is said that the Iron Kingdom has also sent a manifester, and the two top combatants of this world are about to clash.

If I remember correctly, the god who created this world had more than a dozen people.

He then infused a portion of his clan's power into the bodies of humans in this world, allowing this power to be passed down through generations of these humans.

Therefore, the most powerful fighting force on this continent is related to this world-destroying evil god. This world-destroying evil god is the beginning of everything; he created humankind.

It created the world's most powerful fighting force, capable of transforming into giant monsters tens or even hundreds of meters tall to fight.

"Are you travelers from another country? May I ask where you are from?" At this moment, the official in charge of maintaining order in the town, a man holding a curved knife, walked over and asked.

The man and woman in front of me looked very strange. First of all, their clothing was completely different from that of the locals.

They are probably not residents of this country, but rather from another country. However, judging from their equipment style, they don't seem to be from the Iron Kingdom.

"Well, just think of us as people from a very faraway country!" Rhodes said.

"I apologize to you both. Normally, I would welcome you to visit the village and enjoy the scenery of Dalmecja."

"But we are currently at war with the Iron Kingdom, so I need to know why you two are here." The sheriff waved his hand, and several guards approached and surrounded Alice and Rodger.

During wartime, if people from other countries suddenly appear in your country or even near the front lines, and they are not allies, then they are very likely spies.

"Believe me, I mean no harm. I heard you're at war with the Iron Kingdom, is that right? Would you mind hiring me?" Rhodes said.

This point in time should be right at the beginning of the game, when the mighty Titan is about to clash with the Ice God Shiva.

Of the various powers on this continent, only the Republic of Dalmesia offers the fastest path to a high-ranking position upon joining. This country does not have an emperor.

Unlike the surrounding empires and kingdoms, it adopted a form of rule through a joint council.

Rhodes intends to start with this country. He'll make some changes to its fate and see what happens.

"You mean... you want to join this war and help us as employees? You're not a Gifted One, are you?" The man holding the scimitar suddenly frowned and asked.

"No, I am not a gifted one, but a manifester," Rhodes said.

"What? You, you say you are a Manifestation Being! How is that possible?" Only seven Manifestation Beings have been born on this entire continent since its creation.

It is said that a mysterious fire-type manifester appeared in the Duchy of Rozalia more than a decade ago, but it was only a fleeting phenomenon and not many people saw it. Could it be that the man in front of us is that fire-type manifester?

"What? You don't believe me? How about I transform and show you?" Rod said.

So what kind of transformation should I do? Should I transform directly into the Azure Dragon form, or should I give myself a Susanoo shell?

"Sir, if you are truly a manifestation being, then our country would very much welcome your joining us."

"I will report your matter to my superiors immediately. Please demonstrate your manifester power to me!" The sheriff in charge of guarding the village said excitedly.

Rhodes nodded, then led the sheriff to an open area outside the village.

"Roar! Roar!" A giant dragon soared into the sky, its entire body a vibrant green, and it was over 500 meters long.

Rhodes can now freely control his body size after transformation. When fully transformed, his body length can reach an astonishing five thousand meters.

But it can also be shrunk to tens of meters, since that Titan is a monster that is hundreds of meters long.

Then I have to be a bit older than him, but not too much older, let's say 500 meters!

After the enormous dragon appeared, it hovered in the sky, its body covering the sky and the sun.

Strong gusts of wind swept across the ground, causing all the soldiers present to stagger and fall.

"Wow, that's amazing! This size is even bigger than a Titan!"

"Isn't this size a bit too huge?"

"Enough! That's enough! Your Excellency, you, you can stop now. You are indeed a Manifestation Being." The soldier who received Rhodes immediately waved his hand and said.

The enormous dragon in the sky roared, its size rapidly shrinking before transforming into Rhode's true form.

"Wow, that's amazing! Rhodes, you can actually turn into a dragon too!" Alice exclaimed excitedly.

What secrets is hidden within her man? He seems to have never revealed his full strength!

But it doesn't matter, because strong power will also bring women a great sense of security.

"Now, can you take me to meet the higher-ups in your country?" Rhodes said, patting the soldier in front of him who was already terrified.

When the time comes, I only need to cast an illusion spell to take control of your country's upper echelons.

"I...I understand! Sir, I'll report your matter to you right away. Please come with us to the front lines; we need to transport a batch of logistical supplies there." The town's sheriff wiped the sweat from his brow and said tremblingly.

It's certainly a good thing that a powerful manifester is willing to join their nation and help them fight against the Iron Kingdom.

In terms of overall national strength, the Republic of Dalmesia is actually inferior to the Iron Kingdom. The Iron Kingdom's guys have a very fierce fighting style, and their soldiers are better trained.

"The situation is very bad right now. It is said that the Iron Kingdom has already sent Shiva, the Ice Summoner, to the battlefield," said a high-ranking official of the Republic of Dalmecia's parliament.

"If that's the case, then our ace Titan will have no advantage."

"Hmph! Don't worry, the power of the Titans is beyond Shiva's reach. Ice Shiva is no match for me." A bald, burly man over two meters tall stubbed out his cigarette and sneered.

This person is none other than Hugo Kucapp, the manifestation of the Titans, ever since he awakened the power of the Titans.

No one can defeat him. Even without fully transforming, using only a portion of the Titan's power, no one can defeat him.

"Hugo! We believe in your strength! But the Kingdom of Wald is our ally, and since we are allied, they cannot shirk their responsibilities," a council official said.

"That's right. We need the help of those who can enter the mainland. Otherwise, what's the point of our alliance? Are we going to face the enemy alone?"

"The people from the Kingdom of Volud will be here in a couple of days. We'll have to negotiate with them properly then."

"Report! Report! Important news has come from the rear!" Just then, a soldier rushed in, knelt on the ground, and said.

"What's all this commotion about? What happened?"

"We have discovered a mysterious manifestation being that can transform into a giant dragon. This being has expressed its willingness to join our Republic of Dalmecia to fight against the Iron Kingdom."

"What? A new Manifestation has appeared, and he's planning to join our Republic of Dalmesia to help us fight the Iron Kingdom? Are you kidding me? Is he really a Manifestation?" a Dalmesia official asked incredulously.

"What I said is true, and the other side has already revealed its form as a manifestation, a gigantic divine dragon. We all saw it, and it has now arrived at the military camp," the kneeling soldier said.

He wouldn't dare report this if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes.

"If that's the case, that would be wonderful. With the power of two summoned beasts, our Republic of Dalmesia could easily defeat the Iron Kingdom and even gain greater influence on this continent," a council official said excitedly.

While one Titan is certainly intimidating, having two would be a completely different story.

The Kingdom of Volud, an ally of them, has two Manifestations. It is said that there were once three, but one of them betrayed them.

"As far as I know, there shouldn't be any other manifesters in this world, except for a mysterious patient from the Fire County who appeared thirteen years ago during the Phoenix Gate incident," the bald, burly man Hugo sneered.

I don't know what attribute this unfamiliar manifester represents. The wind manifester is that woman from the allied nation.

The manifestation of earth, Titan, is himself; the manifestation of water is within the autonomous domain.

The Manifestation of Fire was said to have been killed many years ago, but according to some rumors, there may now be a second Manifestation of Fire on the continent.

The Manifestation of Thunder is said to be from another continent, but he betrayed the country for unknown reasons.

The other two are recognized as the most powerful manifestations, the Dragon King Bahamut and Odin.

Bahamut, the Manifestation of Dragons, is the eldest prince of the Holy Sambrek Empire.

As for the other one, the manifestation of Odin who is on par with the Dragon King, it is King Barnabas of the Kingdom of Volud.

Nisa Gorge, within the fortress of Zaniercha, is the front line of the war against the Iron Kingdom.

If a manifester were to appear, then my plan to control the Republic of Dalmecchia would probably have to be revised.

"No matter what, let's invite them in first!"

The other members of the parliament of the Republic of Dalmesia all wore excited expressions, hoping that this manifester would genuinely join them.

Then there's someone who can keep Hugo in check. Hugo has been going too far lately, even wanting to turn the Republic into his kingdom.

Soon, Rhodes and Alice were invited into the military fortress of the Republic of Darmecia.

"You're the new one! Uh! Uh!" The member of the Dalmecian Republic Parliament, who was just about to step forward to speak, suddenly turned blood red, a strange pattern appeared in his eye socket, and he looked blank.

Just as the others in the room were about to react, Rhodes' eyes swept over them.

No one could withstand the power of the Rinne Sharingan. Including the Titan Manifestation, all the high-ranking officials of the Republic of Dalmesia were instantly controlled by Rhodes.

I have no intention of playing power games with them, because soon, the King of Barnabas, the embodiment of Odin and a representative of some evil god, will arrive. (End of Chapter)
