Isle returned to the Twelve Powers Empire with anger and fear. As they parked at the fron door of their headquarters. Isle and Elradon quickly ran to the Headquarters. They called a summit and called the other Powers.

"What is this nonsense?" Alfred asked the young boy. Alfred is a 16 year old dwarf who is one of the Twelve Powers. He has a very disturbing manner for he always get mad and angry at small things and he also laugh at people when he is embarassing them. He has 5 million dwarves who are all loyal to him.

"Lord Alfred, the Shopping City was destroyed by an unknown force of evil that came from the sky. It! destroyed the city in seconds. A man in a robe said we should leave the place for we don't have the power to fight the evil that came there. We listened to what he said so we are still alive, sitting in the round table having a summit" Isle said with a serious look on his face.

"You must be tired from having fun, that is why you are telling those pathetic things. Shopping City is a nation that no person will attack for it has a contract with us. If a nation will attack the Shopping City, the Twelve Powers Empire will destroy it quickly. That is the law the whole world knows." Alfred said to Isle with a big laugh.

Elradon stood up from his chair then he calmly said "You are wrong, Alfred! Isle is saying the truth. There really is man in a robe that said that too us. We saw the Shopping City destroyed in a short period of time. We are not making a joke!"

"Enough! Isle, if you are telling the truth, then why are we not receiving any reports that the Sjopping City was destroyed?" Cruster asked his young brother.

A soldier came and said "My lords, the Sbopping City was destroyed by no living nation!"

"What?  No living nation? Meaning they are not part of the nations known to the World Ranking? This is no common problem." Cruster said with fear.

A leaf flew in the summit room. It danced around the 12 young lords. It suddenly stopped in the middle of the round table. It transformed into a man in a robe. Everyone was alerted by the man. All the young lords stood and prepared their selves. Isle and Elradon didn't have any reaction. They just stood firm and made a bow to the man in the robe.

"Thank you for saving us!" Isle and Elradon said with a humble act.

"You don't need to thank me. It still not time for you people to say that. I am Feranos the Prophet. I am here to guide your soldiers to their own safety. You must evacuate the empire for the evil that destroyed the Shopping City will soon send hundreds of armies that will destroy the neighboring nations. Your force is no match from that evil. That evil I am telling you is the Underworld Legion. You must not fight them. Bring word to all other nations in this world that they must go to the Land of Flea."

"Did you mean the Forest of Flea? That is the place where the Universal Tree is standing. Land of the most powerful Forest Elves." Elradon asked him.

"Hahahaha! Are you telling me that we cannot beat those Underworld monsters? We have 50 million soldiers. We leaders are the most powerful persons in this world. Alfred boastfully said.

"No! You are wrong, Alfred. We are no longer the most powerful leaders. We maybe the most powerful nation because of our numbers but, there are new leaders who made new nations or guilds. Those leaders are far more powerful than us. I may have not seen them, yet I know that they can exceed our limitations. The whole world is just kind to us so they did not remove us from our title "The Twelve Powers of the World." Believe me, we are not the most powerful persons in the world." Cruster said with a deadly look on Alfred.

Alfred just sat on his chair with a great shock because of hearing the words their leader said. He was dissapointed to himself. All the time he thought he was one of the most powerful persons in the world, but it was not true. He didn't talk back for he knows that their leader says true things. He became quiet and sad. Everyone noticed his dissapointment.
