After the broadcast, the 'shit has hit the fans', as they say, the moment it stopped broadcasting Grimm started to behave 'weirdly'.
The land Grimm started to amass into four large units, since there are four habitable continents, well... five as the fifth can be considered an island...
Four large hordes of Grimm started to move towards the Four Kingdoms.
This means the speed of this mission is essential to succeed.
"Well, buddy it seems this will be our 'greatest battle' so far..." Raynor said with smirk as they were aboard one of Atlas fancy cruisers.
"Whole continent of Grimm to slaughter..." The Blonde said as he realised that this Dragon shaped continent is completely inhospitable to humans...
"Yeah they even have continent shaped in my honour already..." Raynor offhandedly said that.
"Sorry to break your bubble but it's western dragon, and western dragon is the younger brother's 'dragon form'." Arno 'ruthlessly' destroyed Raynor's 'ego bubble'...
"I see, it does make sense since it's him who created those things in the first place," Raynor said that while completely ignoring the previous comment from his friend.
While Raynor and Arno were having their conversation why the continent is not named after him, Weiss was slightly behind them in deep thought, her eyes from time to time would go on the black-haired woman, and 'bodyguard'.
She was utterly stupid when she didn't realised something important, until her sister has pointed it out for her.
When Weiss mentioned that Raynor has conquered several realities before coming to Remnant, Winter asked her how many 'princesses' did the Dragon God has hidden in his 'tower' before coming to their World.
That question had the Heiress throw into a loop, she was stupid to believe that Raynor never took interest in someone else when he established rule over several REALITIES.
In the end, she had to realise that her boyfriend is by no stretch normal and she should not think of having a normal relationship with him...
One conversation with Long Qing made her drop the whole idea of trying to keep him for herself, because she is not the first girl who thought of that before, if what Long Qing said is true then even real Goddesses failed to 'tame' him...
Having Domain over the concept of Stamina terrified her to no end.
After learning that she did notice that he never was tired, only bored or just lazy in general...
Few days after that she gathered her courage, and asked him how many 'Princesses did he stashed in his tower'.
What she found out blew her mind away... Instead of stashing his princesses away as she thought with Winter, she learned that he turns them into Goddesses, basically he has a Pantheon of girls...
And, she is next in line to join his pantheon...
Yang started calling her 'Weiss Cream Goddess'...
While Yang and Ruby found it amusing to a certain degree, only Blake found that amount of power very enticing.
Weiss is sure that is going take a while for them to realise what it truly means...
Once she spoken with Winter about that, since the Specialist was in Vale, General Ironwood found her most trustworthy of all Specialist to be around the 'Chaotic Deity'.
Winter already has experience being in his presence, and he knows her as well...
For now Weiss decided to push what happened over the week and half aside, instead she inspected her upgraded rapier.
Her 'Myrtenaster' is 'Multi Action Dust Rapier', it can be considered Schnee-only type of weapon, as the dust inside of it used to cast glyphs...
All that was before the upgrade... now her Rapier cannot be broken or chipped, the dust refill on its own, it can be summoned at will no matter where Weiss is, as it stored in a different dimension, the number of glyphs she can cast have been multiplied several folds, and the best part of this all is that the amount of aura she has is monstrous, just because she is holding Myrtenaster in her hand...
All that is by Raynor standards is considered 'small' upgrade.
When she asked Long Qing what Raynor considers 'major' upgrade the 'Bodyguard' pulled out her spear same way Weiss now does with her Myrtenaster, The Heiress gulped down just from feeling the pressure coming from the spear!
Even then Long Qing was holding back most of the pressure of the weapon at bay!
Her weapon is considered a 'Heavenly Treasure' something even reality itself trying to reject such existence!
That was a 'Major' upgrade according to Long Qing...
Talking about skills in weaponsmithing! she wonders how long until Ruby learns what Raynor really can do in forge?

"Approaching the 'Grimm continent'." Everyone looked at the screen.
It was wasteland, nothing to say more on that, no trees or grass, even desert would look more lively than this!
"This is the place... the amount of Darkness energy in air has significantly increased..." Raynor said as he felt an increased in Darkness laws in air.
"This darkness has seeped into the land over a long period time, I can say that Creatures of Grimm have been here for a very, very long time by mortals standards... maybe even from the very beginning." He continued to explain.
"That means there are many of them here." Only Raynor group thought that it's nothing, but the rest? they all gulped down nerviously.
"SIR! large group of Grimm approaching from air!" One of the officers on the bridge notified.
"Why don't you deal with them?" Raynor offered for his Dragon Empress to exercise little bit.
She just shrugged hearing that.
"Why not? it's getting boring sitting in this ship." Long Qing looked at the approaching horde of flying Grimm, there were so many of them that it looked like a massive black cloud.
With a single-step she appeared in front of the cruiser, and pulled out her spear.
Seconds later she took casual spear stance and then just thrust her spear forward...
...
...
Next thing everyone saw was the horde of flying Grimm started to fall into the ground, as if a wave of some sort energy just hit them.
"Damn... her mastery of over space laws is insane!" Arno said with awed look.
"You noticed that?" Raynor asked with a slightly curious look, after all, Arno is still in mortal path! and laws should be difficult to sense or feel at that level!
"Well, duh! you constantly use space laws! I picked up thing or two, but I am nowhere near capable of wielding it, or even sensing it properly!" The blond said to his friend.
"It's all fun and dandy! but can any of you tell me how she killed them all being hundreds of metres away!" Yang asked with a deadpan and frustrated look, while the rest of people aboard the cruiser looked at Long Qing with awe at the power of ravenhead girl!
"What she did is quite simple yet very difficult at the same time..." This has confused the hell out Yang, but Arno decided to explain properly to his girlfriend...
"What Long Qing did was focus space law energy at the tip of her spear and then thrust it towards the Grimm, you may have not seen anything, because for one space just like time is invisible unless you have full control over it..." The blond motioned towards falling Grimm.
"You could say she has created space law version of a tsunami..." The blond chuckled thinking for best comparison for this situation...
"For one if she messed up there would a space rift at minimum, and worst case we would have a wormhole," Raynor explained with a smile which made everyone who understood what this mean turn white like paper.
...
"Your sense of humour is...lacking." Weiss eventually said as everyone was staring at him with fear.
He turned towards the white-haired girl with pout.
"And no, it was not funny at all..." She sighed seeing his pout.
"Fine! whatever! can we move on? there is millions of these things to destroy!" He snapped everyone out and the cruisers were ordered to move on...
~~~
The things didn't look any nicer deeper in the continent.
Since everyone were aboard Atlesian Cruisers they had bird view of what was happening below.
And it was pitch black darkness mixed with white armour-like plates on the Grimm...
That means these Grimm are old, like really old in Remnant standards.
"Right, so this where we going to start shaving their numbers..." Raynor said seriously, as he was expecting a lot of them, but this many? It seems Salem was not wasting her time over the centuries...
"What do you suggest?" General Ironwood asked from his captain seat.
"Huntsmen are not meant for such field battle like this, even if they were they, Salem would still have numbers advantage."
"So, I will take care of numbers while your huntsmen will take care of stranglers, we will use this method until we reach Salem's stronghold..."
The Primordial Dragon said that will smile as he operated his Spirit Realm inside of him...
Pity that he is facing dark creatures he would love to use his Asura's but alas... he has other creatures under him... MANY other creatures under him...
"You... are going to unleash your creatures?" General Ironwood said with realisation, Ozpin who was silent the whole time paled hearing that.
"Yes, but not my strongest creatures, for this I am picking much weaker but they have a natural affinity towards fighting darkness, they are more than a match for Grimm..." Raynor selected the Buddha Spirit Realm, the spirits in this place have a natural affinity towards destroying Darkness, even so, they were no match against Asura's, but against soulless beasts? well more like constructs...
They more than a match...
After saying his bit he looked towards Weiss for second.
"Take care of yourself, and don't get hurt." He stroked her cheek tenderly, the Heiress blushed for a second, she is not used to receive affection in front of so many people!
"I-I-I will! ...This is embarrassing!" She said the ladder half with borderline whispering voice.
Raynor decided to save her from any more embarrassment, so he disappeared... after kissing her forehead that is...
Still his actions made the girl blush even more as she was on the bridge with a bunch of people looking at her, Yang of course snickered seeing her blush...
~~~
Raynor reappeared outside the Cruiser and activated his World Spirit Gates...
Kilometres of the sky started to get very cloudy with pitch-black clouds and multiple lightning dancing in them.
Second later extremely wide golden doors started to descend towards the grounds.
The Creatures of Grimm bellow started to get rowdy as their instincts picket something up...
When this massive gates landed on ground it created massive clouds of dusts before opening-up and white purifying light poured from them creating a contrast of Darkness and Light.
Seconds later creatures of light started to dash towards temporarily 'blinded' Grimm...
Seeing hundreds of thousands of beings of light charge towards creatures of darkness it's awe-inducing sight.
So, Raynor pulled out his phone and took several pictures of this, he then did the same with his scroll, and decided to make some more pictures, he is going to share those with people of Remnant...
"Are you going to join Master?" Long Qing asked him curiously, The Dragon Empress and his loyal ȧssistant already mastered their methods of finding and appearing close to him...
"Not really, Buddha Spirits will deal with them... observing like this is fine..." Raynor shrugged, he felt like he is playing RTS in real life, with the way he can control his spirits from air...
The girls didn't say anything they just watched the 'show' with him.
The Buddha Spirit have massive advantage against anything remotely Grimm, thanks to their affinity towards light, the creatures of Grimm would die from a single punch, and Buddhas didn't even revealing their cultivation base!
Raynor even on purpose used weakest Buddhas from Nascent to Earth Profound to face these 'Ancient' Grimm...
"Massacre..."
"Indeed...."
