Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

His luck was great, as the number of these alpha holes weren't that high, only twenty. He sent his armies there, so he could now control them at the same time, while preparing for the huge battle to come.

There was the ordinary way to travel through space to come here, but that would take days, if not weeks to amass all the forces scattered everywhere.

That wouldn't work, and the leaders of this kingdom must be feeling quite humiliated right now with his actions, so the first and logical order to give was to force their way through his blockade, even if they sacrificed half of their fleet.

He had to avoid the first approach, directing smashing into the blockade and doing the unexpected.

What these leaders didn't know was Rigo ahd already anticipated that, so he ordered his men to bomb these holes, making any cruiser passing there, small, medium, or even large one, to suffer huge damages and be destroyed.

The network of eyes he spread gave him a clear view and updated vision over everything happening there. as he expected, the enemy started using the force to penetrate into the controlled holes, and when they did that, the losses started to well up at a frightening speed.

The second logic order was given, retreat! Rigo knew they would do that, but it was already too late. They had already lost over two thirds of their mighty fleet, and the rest was now suffering losses as well.

"Issue the order to follow and destroy," Rigo simply said, after one day of the start of this battle, its end was drawing near to him. He sent down his own forces that kept the holes from working, to pass through the holes, and start attacking the already injured fleet.

In less than another day, ninety percent of that huge fleet was destroyed, and the remaining ten percent was already on the run for their lives.

"Give the order to seize the royal family, control all the planets, and send a word back home to send new people to rule here," Rigo said, as victory was already grasped, and now the long and tiring rebuilding process had already started.

He felt quite relieved for not having to do this tiring and boring thing on his own. Islinda had already established a system to control everything, organizing many officials to rule under their names, and thus he could simply let things here to her, without feeling any worry at all.

The last thing to do, and that was quite important as well, was to spread the monster fighting force to these newly conquered areas.

However, there was a problem here. The number of planets here was tenfold what they had anticipated, so he had to let part of his fleet, big part nonetheless, to stay back, spread over the huge territory, and be ready for these monsters.

He knew James would be quite surprised and pleased when he got the news, so he made sure he sent the news to him as fast as he could. Having all these planets, with all these monsters here would increase the wealth gained from merchants, and make his strength grow more and more.

Rigo had the realization that a fleet with over one thousand large cruisers was drawing nearer and nearer to him, just a couple more places like this, and he would see it happening for real.

"Let's go and pay these fighting rats a visit," he gave the order for the remaining fleet to move on. Despite not losing much in the previous fight, he had to abandon a lot of forces to guard against monsters.

Despite having his fleet halved, he wasn't worried, as the reports coming from the ongoing battles in the four kingdoms made him quite satisfied.

During these days, they had already destroyed most of each other's fleet, while he made sure to send his snatched cruisers everytime peace was about to be reached, to ignite the fire of hatred again, making everyone more fixed on fighting, nothing more.

So, Rigo went there with the smell of victory already in his nose, thinking this would be another stroll here, then he would announce his complete victory.

However, he was destined to be disappointed, greatly, when the recent news came into him, just a few distance away from the current ongoing battlefield.

"So, I wasn't the only shark eyeing these fishes then," he muttered, as the reports that lastly came spoke of the emergence of a new strength, coming on the current disputes, attacking everyone, killing them all.

This New Force then moved at once, spreading its dominance on the four kingdoms, in a way that seemed pretty organized for a long time, not just improvised on the moment.

Rigo gave the order to halt, while he sent more scouts and spies towards the kingdoms, to know what this new shark was.

To his surprise, it was a nearby hidden beast, who hid itself quite well, stretching its reign over the whole territory around it, being so close to being a kingdom already.

So, it wasn't a simple shark, it was a whale!

The only good news he had was the total number of these forces, they weren't that much considering the huge stretch of space it controlled.

"So, if we send out reinforcements, can we take it down?" Rigo muttered, but he knew this wouldn't be easy. He had gained one victory, but lost another good piece of the cake, and despite how bitter it was, he knew he had to accept it, not be a sore loser here.

"Send a signal to home, we want all what they can spare and buy of cruisers and armies to be sent over to us," he said, " and send more spies to this force, I need all the data about it here as fast as possible," he added, as fighting in the dark would be quite stressful.

On the other hand, James was already in his own dilemma at the same time. knowing what that ambassador wanted, he started to feel somehow conflicted regarding it.

He didn't know how much of this ore he had, or how big its effects were, so he couldn't make up his mind, when he met that ambassador here today, would he accept, stall, or refuse?

So, he just waited, hoping for the good news to come. At this moment, he had the news Rigo sent about their victory on the new kingdom they discovered to be huger than their previous estimation just arrived.

"Oh, we had it big this time," James just smiled, widely, as this was quite the victory and large gains to him. He knew this new territory would add more riches to his, more power, and also increase the workload over Islinda.

"Pass this message to Islinda at once," he ordered, while Luna was now in another place, where her mind was wrapped with sweet feelings and dreams, under the effects of James' soft touches over her body.

So, she didn't hear or realize what was going on. As for Islinda, she was now standing in the main palace on the main planet, meeting with merchants, and striking deals with them.

Just as she was in the middle of that, the message suddenly came to her screen, where she just smiled, then laughed wildly when she read that.

Since the moment she slept with James, she had changed in her personality, as she became more bold, more aggressive, more wild. Her sudden and extreme reaction was spotted by the merchants, who asked her at once:

"Is there good news, my lady?"

"Good news? It's great news," she laughed again before giving the orders, "spread the word, we have already secured over two hundred more planets, and they are ready for auctions."

Her words made the eyes of these merchants pop up from their heads, two hundred planets were a huge boost in the territory, but they weren't thinking about that.

They were thinking about the number of monsters they would have the chance to seize, and when they thought back to their limited number of armed forces, they knew they had more work to do, and thus they all excused one after another, heading rapidly back to inform their superiors about these great news.

"It seems that night was a very good omen to us," she muttered, with a strange smile over her face, "so, why don't we do it again, my dear James?" she was speaking to herself like James was there in front of her.

The next few hours were quite busy, as all the merchants living here were stirred by this news, and they came here to strike more deals with her. She started to amass a lot of resources, war weapons, cruisers, and soldiers, in numbers and quantities she never dreamt of.

In the middle of that, the next news to reach James was regarding that ambassador, he was already here!
