Gehekakth, Laura, and Cutthroat rushed through the swamps of this vast planet as they carried with themselves the hopeless and sorrowful little tadpole of the frog, which was inside its egg.

The little tadpole looked for its mother everywhere it could, but there was no mother to be seen but only three incredibly creepy Gods who began to carry it with their Divine Auras shaped as hands, as they flew across the skies, having already used the boat, the simply took into the skies like any god would do.

Despite looking like thugs, they were still Gods after all… Indeed, even as painful as it might be to admit! The trio laughed maliciously, as if they were the most cartoony of cliché villains.

"Kueheheh… With this damn tadpole the entire star system might be in the palm of our boss' hands!" said Gehekakth.

"Indeed~! Fufu, I can't wait for our boss to get his hands into it and finally tame it, we'll be rewarded so handsomely! Ah~ I want to go on a date with him~! Can I?" wondered Laura.

"Is that the only thing you're thinking about, you woman? There's way more to it than just dating! We are our Boss loyal servants, the more he owns, the more we also own! The stronger he grows, the more authority we also have over all the pesky little ants below us… Ah, look at that, more ants, it seems." Said Cutthroat, the only human of the group pointed at middle-sized village of Saphibians, intelligent amphibian people with beautiful azure hair made of algae. They were mostly tribal in nature, and these groups were the most evasive ones, who often ran away from the invaders such as the space pirates.

"Huh? A village of the native mortals? Not a single one is even close to X-Rank, such a waste of oxygen in this world… we might as well enslave them for the losers that serve us." Said Laura.

"Good idea! These ones have been pretty evasive, they're always running away, but can always use more workhand in the underwater mines. After all their amazing swimming abilities and their capacity of breathing underwater is what makes them the best for mining the underground areas and take out more of the rich soil and also the divine materials that grow underground…! To think that all those gigantic divine beasts that died in the past would make the underground of this planet such a treasure throve for even us gods!" laughed Gehekakth.

"Lower your voice already you stupid bug, nobody cares about the details, let's just pick them up, it shouldn't take that very long." Said Cutthroat.

"Alright!" Laura and Gehekakth obeyed Cutthroat easily, he was like their leader after all, so they usually obeyed him… and well, he was the strongest too…



The small village of Saphibians was having another normal and peaceful day. The children were running around playing with a ball made out of leather, while the adults were butchering their hunts while crafting new weapons, clothes, and cooking for lunch.

However, a certain woman who had been taking care of a certain pair of parentless twins seemed concerned. She had a slender figure and long and glistening azure green hair, made of beautiful and tender algae. She was in fact one of the prettiest ladies of this tribe, and often referred as the goddess of the swamp by many of the men in love with her. While also making a bit of sense, as she was born with a special talent…

She rushed around the village looking for the missing twins, she had done it already for the past few hours, but nothing was actually happening, she couldn't find them yet… she had been taking care of them since they were little tadpole babies, abandoned and left to die, they somehow survived even against the odds…

"Where are these children? Armonia! Ermenia!"

She began to look outside the village, even jumping and swimming around the lily pad islands and evading deadly predator beasts with her great agility and her amazing usage of water and nature magic, using it to walk over water and to control the algae to protect her or entangle animals that tried to get a bite off her while swimming around.

However, at the end, she couldn't find them. The beautiful Saphibian sighed as she moved back to the village to report this back to the elder but was suddenly stopped by a band of three burly guys.

"Oi, Nesephise, you've finally lost those annoying twins, haven't you? Shouldn't it be time for you to find a mate?" asked one of them, the leader.

"What do you want, Freese? I am not interested in you, I already told you!" she said.

"You've already seen I am the strongest around here! What else do you need to know?! I am already the most amazing fighter and warrior; I can secure you a good hunt! Let's go make eggs already!" he roared.

"You're losing in a big opportunity to have strong children!"

"Indeed!"

The two lackeys of Freese nodded stupidly at everything the other idiot spoke. Nesephise was already feeling like she was losing neurons by merely listening to these hopeless fools.

"I already told you I don't want to-"

"Hey, you're not going anywhere… My father told that I just had to stop being gentle, if I wanted a woman, I had to just grab her and make her my own!" said Freese, the burly green and white-skinned amphibian man grabbed Nesephise's delicate and slender arm with his big hands, pressing down on her and causing her pain.

"So you're the strongest here you say?" she asked angrily, a sudden sphere of water emerged above the head of Freese, splashing over him and throwing him into the ground!

"UAGH?!"

SPLASH!

His lackeys quickly went to his rescue.

"F-Freese!"

"Y-You witch! You won't get away with this!"

"Shut the fuck up and leave me alone." She sighed, walking away only to suddenly notice three strange and mysterious figures hovering atop the village, they looked… dangerous.

"W-Who… are they?"
