Intermission: Lux

The room is dark, a large table with many people sitting down. As the shadows of each person start talking.

"Has everything progressed perfectly?"

"Yes, Xenor will return back safely."

"Now it's just a matter, do you think Vesh will win?"

The man sitting at the head laughs, "A simple man like him will never accomplish anything. Soon or later, Nox will be under our hands. So, how are things outside?"

A man stands up, "Currently, alliances are being formed to overthrow us."

The head taps the table, "They think we will act like Vesh?"

"As of now they possess no knowledge of Nox, however their plan is rather similar to Operation Liberation."

"Hmph, O.L was created by a rather shrewd man. Someone like him are rare, although I can see the Primary King having the same kind of tactics as Emperor of Satrus..."

A portal opens up as Xenor walks in,

"I have returned from my mission, and this will help further our goals."

Xenor place down a piece of paper,

"So this is..."

Xenor nods, "Yes, the case study of Project Vanitas, created by a comrade of mine. She has told me that this is the complete version. If things go well, we can control both Vesh and Nox at the same time."

The head keeps on tapping the table, "How troublesome, it seems like both Vesh and I are in a predicament. These outside forces are gathering, and yet I cannot abandon Project Nox."

Xenor smirks, "I do have an idea."

"Tell me.?"

"No matter what happens, we shall go forth from the revival of the Three Forgotten Gods."

Everyone in the room is shocked by Xenor's words as the head stood up, face still in the shadows,

"Xenor, do you know what you are suggesting?"

"Yes, Chairman, I know our goals. Wouldn't reviving them further our goals? Plus, even if both Vesh and you crumble. It isn't the end."

Chairman sat back down, "True... hmm, Xenor you convinced me. This is my order, even if both Lux or Nox have been freed... Stay hidden, and revive the Three Forgotten Gods!"

Xenor bows, "As you wish, Chairman."

Then he walks back into the portal with the girl.

A woman shouts, "Chairman, this is far too risky. We have cut ties with Vesh in order to deal with these outside alliances."

"The only one that could pose a real threat is the Temporal-Conqueror, anyone else can grovel at my feet."

"But... you need to think of the consequences!"

Chairman sighs, "The true moment is dawning upon us... It wouldn't do good if we did miss the opportunity right? CEO?"

Another man with a military hat walks up,

"Chairman... we have news regarding... the Storyteller."

"Hmph, and what does he want?"

"He has contacted one of the members from the outside Alliance..."

"And?"

"It doesn't seem like the StoryTeller will tell everything that is happening in Nox to this person... But we must remind caution."

"Very well... CEO, for now I'll listen to you. I'll contact Vesh for one final time... Then shift our focus to the outside alliance!"

Everyone in the room shouts, "SIR!"

"Nyx? Hemera? Any God that stands in my way will perish!"
