Phantasia: The Princess Knight

"Bell that is because your daddy is handsome." Alicia chuckled and patted Bell on the head. She then turned to Claire and asked: "Can you settle her into a room for me?" 

"Of course." Claire smiled and grabbed Bell's hand. "Come I will show you around the ship!" 

Bell smiled and nodded as she happily followed Claire. Everything for her was new and exciting so Alicia was not too worried about her. "Since the cultivators have already shown up here with a forward team, I am sure they will send more powerful people soon. So I think it would be best to do some recon on their forces and then figure out where to go from there. Luckily we can enter the void space so we can get a safe view of what we are dealing with. We should by no means think we are more powerful than the enemy. What we saw earlier was more than likely their weakest of the group. If we were to come across the same size army of gods or true gods we could be in for a rough fight. We also do not know if we are just dealing with cultivators. So please be on guard."

"Do you think our fleet of ships can withstand an onslaught of attacks from true gods?" Starla asked.

"With the tech we have, we can withstand the attacks of an army of true gods. But it would depend on how quickly we can take them out. We may even be able to put up a fight with a creator that is if you do not add in my ancient bloodline." Alicia answered. She did not want to use her bloodline power unless it was necessary. She did not want to have one of the death race appear again in the middle of battle. 

"It is good that we can at least put up a fight. But what if we contacted the Machine Empire and did a pincer attack?"

"Rose, that would not be such a bad idea but Charles is having a hard time keeping those who wish to usurp his position in check. We were supposed to go to his world and assist with that. These cultivators have really made things difficult with the timing of their attack.��� Alicia wished she could do a pincer and finish things off quickly but she knew Charles did not have the man power to do so at this time. Not to mention the old cultivators from before had said something about a truce. 

"I see… Then we can only rely on ourselves this time around." Rose felt a bit depressed.

"We have the allies and strength to fight back. We can only hope that we can push forward and make the enemy retreat from which they came." Annelia commented. 

"No… We will make sure nothing like this can threaten Phantasia again. We will annex everything the Heaven Falls Sect has control of." Alicia was not going to let anyone off easy. These people came to start a fight and threatened her world, she would make sure they could not and would not cause any trouble in the future. 

"You plan to take over part of the Inner Worlds?" Blake asked to confirm what Alicia's plan was.

"Yep! If we do it this way, we can make use of the resources and also keep Phantasia safe at the same time. Not to mention the people of each of these planets will be able to live freely." Alicia explained.

"Alright then let's get to work on gathering information. We need to know the enemy numbers and strength. Once we know that we can handle the rest. Jay, take us back into the void and head further in." Alicia hopped that the enemy was not too strong. She did not want to see any of her people die. If things did get out of hand, she would transfer everyone back into her space and escape if need be.

The ship slightly shook as its engines kicked on. A tear in space formed by the nose of the ship as the ship coasted through it entering the void. The void was a strange place, it was a reality but not reality. Like a parallel existence outside the normal space. You could see everything that was going on around you but could not interact with anything outside the void.

Far from Alicia's location, an old man in green robes rushed into a large hall that had several old men in robes sitting around sipping tea. "What's the rush!?"

"Sect Master we have a major issue!" The old man in green robes answered.

"What issue is this? Are you not the leader of the forward team, why are you here?" the Sect Master asked.

"Sect Master. The whole forward team was wiped out in an instant by one person. She… she was machine but had both cultivation and magic at her disposal. She was in the true god realm. Her hand even opened up revealing a strange weapon I have never seen before that used magic at its source. Here watch this..." The old man in green robes explained as he took out a stone from the ring on his finger and passed it to the Sect Master.

"Hmmm… The girl is quite young… But her technology we can not ignore. If we can get our hands on that technology our Heaven Falls Sect will be able to take full control of the inner worlds!" The Sect Master announced.

"Sect Master I do not think that is such a good idea. If the little girl is able to take out a few million demi gods instantly then she is at least powerful enough to take any one of us on. If there are more people behind her, some kind of hidden race we could be fighting a battle that will end up destroying our sect." One of the old men next to the Sect Master said. After watching the images of the girl and her actions he had a feeling it would not be a good idea to get on whatever race this girl was from, bad side.
