In the night of winter in Russia, Congress announced the formation of the Republic. Changing the Revolutionary Army to the Republic.
The Two Chancellor of the Republic is Chancellor Jean and Chancellor Boris holding the decision on three bodies of the Republic, the Military, the Legislative and the Administration.
While the World Government slowly becoming more authoritarian, the Revolutionary army started becoming a body of a democratic ideals.
It is ironic to say the least.
In the beginning it was the World Government that embodies the ideas of democracy and the concept of all are equal.
And it was the Revolutionary army that employs authoritarian regimes under their wings.
With the World Government expanding their military they are slowly morphing into an imperial- like organization.
With Raymond in charge of the army as the Grand Commander and Hirate as the President, both of them looked like Emperor and General.
While the World Government method became more authoritarian, the authoritarian RA had to absorb warlords who also wanted their say to be respected.
Slowly the regions where RA hold sway becoming a body of confederacy govern by people who was appointed by Katarina and Boris.
In the absence of Katarina, Boris decided to change their models of governance.
Instead of being under the orders of Boris and Katarina, they convene a meeting with all the lords and nobles of the RA before they abolished the noble’s titles and instead agreed in a Republic like governance.
They craft the Codified Laws of the Revolutionary Army. Now it is called the Laws of the Republic.
In the First Assembly of the Congress they chose Jean and Boris as the Chancellors.
The other becomes Senators and they appoint Governors to rule the land.
Europe was a strong base for RA while the rest of the world like South and North America becomes a strong base for World Government presence with Hirate crowning kings and titled nobles.
Now, that Revolutionary Army changed their name to the Republic, one knows that the Republic now has started to move.
The battle in the dark has now slightly going up to the surface. And the undercurrents will suck the world into the abyss of chaos.

MEANWHILE, ON THE ISLAND OF PEACE.
Sofia is bewildered by the sight in front of him.
Thousands of soldiers has encircled her residence and the Space on top of her is being locked by a grand array making her unable to teleport away using the Teleport Stone.
Magic formation surrounded the northern region of the Island of Peace, trapping her magical residence self-protecting mechanisms.
She quickly rushed outside to see a grand army in front of her, in the vast flat land. Leading them is Commander Jesse, Raymond right hand man.
Jesse face right now is complicated.
‘Jesse, is this Raymond orders!!’ Sofia shouted, her shouts travelled tens of miles to reach the ears of the main army.
Jesse frowned. The matters at play right now is no longer as simple. By the order of President Hirate, Sofia must not leave the Island of Peace.
Hirate position itself demanded he do this. Because the matters at play right now involve millions of lives.
Beside Jesse is Nick, his Vice Commandeer.
‘Jesse, you must not falter.’
‘This is not the order of the Grand Commander.’ Jesse said as hesitation is clearly evident from the way he positioned his army.
Nick shakes his head. The moment Jesse march the soldiers, there is no longer any way to turn back.
Even if Jesse march back or retreat right now, would the Divine Archer forget that she was encircled by Jesse?
She would surely remember and the matter will get even worse without any way to resolve the misunderstanding.
‘You know why Hirate had to detain her here. We are not to harm her or kill her. We need here as insurance. The whole world regards that it was our organization that order the hit on the Prince. No matter how the higher up denies it, nobody believe it. Even Boris believes it. If The Prince is scheming to harm us, we need to at least have some insurance. We need to draw him out and talk to him.’
‘Then Hirate should sent an emissary to him’ Jesse grumbled.
‘No one knows the temperament of the Prince. Kill first ask later. Who knows if he is that kind of man? If we do not have any leverage against such a powerful monster, then we might not be as lucky as the first battle the World Government had with him’
Jesse was about to say something more before an officer reported
‘Commander, the Divine Archer is bringing out her bow’ Jesse knows he is not to delay. To underestimate the Divine Archer would be a stupid mistake
Sighing, he ordered
‘Order the soldiers to spread out and the magicians to help the Arrayist to form Skyroof Arrays. Her Area of Attack encompassed the entire northern region if she is really determined to kill. Be careful. Form also the magical formation of Protection to dissipate her Suppression of Higher Beings on the low level soldiers’
The world has changed.
Nowadays, many people knows to fight a higher level levelers requires either the same level of levelers or if that is not available to use superior numbers, items, formations, arrays, or sealing formations.
‘Commander, after that do we have the permission to engage?’ the officers asked. With a pained expression, Jesse nodded
‘Permission granted’
The moment the permission to engage was given, the thirty thousand soldiers engage in a battle with a lone woman on the northern region of the Island of Peace.

CHINA
SOUTHERN CHINA
A man who is wielding his staff looking incomparably powerful and flamboyant rides his horse to the battlefield looking over the kneeling troublemakers that came to harass the borders of his dominion.
‘The world is chaotic, and the citizens only wanted to live in peace. Evil forces arrogantly struts and making a ruckus. You turned to banditry, yet all of you possess the temperament of heroes. Good people must unite together’
The people kneeling all look down in shame
‘Join me and help me to pacify the world’
The man rides on top of his Red Hare, his shoes glints as the sun set reflecting the silvery part of his Cloud Walking Boots.
He was wearing his War God Gold Chain armors that is smudged with blood in the battlefield, and on top of his head is the Phoenix Feather Cap.
On his hand he wield the Ruyi Jingu Bang looking sinisterly devious considering that it was a black staff.
This man is none other the formidable General that is a genius in employing strategy and magical formation in deploying soldiers, Wang Jian.
Today like always he defends his borders. After lecturing those bandits, the bandits joined him, bolstering Wang Jian already remarkable army.
On the rear of his army, sitting inside a Phoenix Carriage laden in gold, is the Fairy of the Battlefield Somi.
When Wang Jian finishes his task for the day, he wanted to join Somi and teach her more about weaponry when an officer approached him and give him a coded letter.
Quickly decoding it with the decoder code only he could understand, the letter seems to reveal something shocking.
Wang Jian expression turned hard and anger could be seen from his face as even his neck veins bulged.
Without saying anything, Wang Jian kicked off to the sky, his Cloud Walking Boots propel him faster as he rushed towards the sea….to the direction of the Island of Peace.
