As I ask if my generals are ready to ascend, a visual of Alveron's consciousness comes back online, viewing us from Brymia, as all transmission points of the prison are now frozen and cut off from the rest of space.

However, there is far more than one satellite orbiting around the Great Belt of Brymia and its star.

They have their own transmission routers and surveillance arrays that can capture the scene taking place from an outsider's perspective. This is shared through the link to everyone watching.

Bri adds the four commanders that are currently on the human world to the call as well, but they do not speak.

Alveron does not say a word about these added displays, and I don't make another mention of it either, as given the monster's history, it clearly wants to record as much data as possible from the event that is about to take place.

The generals reply in unison to break the silence.

"We're ready."

Four stable points in the center of the Central Tower are selected on my end, and a request for a mana transfer on each of them is transmitted through our system link.

Arie, Abby, Maria, and Raven all use the mana transferred to them from Bri to pay for the request.

The instant they do, the [Fast Travel] panel lights up, ready for both ends to initiate a mutual agreement to complete the system command.

All four mental agreements are accepted at once, and a powerful sensation surges through me.

I feel eight distinct points in space flash in my mind.

Four of them are all around me, in the corners of each of the bottom floors of this tower.

The other four are down in the Lower Realm.

While I have access to over 400 thousand worlds and can sense their presence quite well, this sensation feels very different.

Even the human world, in which I have the most in-depth connection through the throne, I can really only sense what is on the world.

Its exact position in space is a total mystery to me.

Even with some of the planets I own being within the same star systems, the only reason I know this is because of the forums and discussions within the World Wide Connectivity system.

My perception of each world is limited to the system users on it; my spatial awareness is lacking, to say the very least.

Up until right now, the only thing I really understood about the Upper Realm is that it is certainly above the Lower Realm... but I never fully comprehended what this meant. There is no true up or down in the vastness of space, but seeing where I stand now as above always instinctually made sense to me.

Now, as an instant connection from exactly where I stand down to this Lower Realm is formed, a physical pathway within my mind appears that opens my eyes to what the split between realms really is...

From the generals' perspective, only dense light pink pure mana surrounds them in small orbs.

It looks very similar to my mana crystallization skill, though it stays in a liquid form and is packed so densely that any interference with space around them is negated.

Red Divine threads tether the mana together at first, but as it gets denser and denser, the threads compress as well, turning orange, then yellow; and finally, once the four orbs consolidate, they all shimmer green.

Nothing from the outside can push through, and even as the generals touch the inside of their orbs, no reaction or radiation comes back on them.

It is very similar to the ether orbs used in fast travel between points here in the Citadel, however, there is an added barrier of pure mana and dense divine threads that act similar to the purple ring that protected me in my first days here in the Upper Realm.
