I do not own the cover, I got it from a screenshot I took on istagram when I was looking at a band called infected mushroom.

Prologue

On some of the other planets that the Mushroom Being had attacked after attacking Earth, there were other lifeforms, some were humanoid while others weren't, but there were six most notable races of lifeforms.

The first race was a race of half human half mammal looking humanoids, they were very similar to the legends about what were-people would look like, but they didn't behave with animalistic barbarity.

The second was a race of a half human half reptile humanoids. The third was an angelic race, they were usually extremely good looking with pure white wings on their back, they would usually come and help you if you offered a prayer to them.

However, if your faith in them started to waver or if you did anything against their own moral code, then you would be obliterated into nothingness. The fourth was a race of creatures that had no particular form, they would take the appearance of the worst possible thing that you could imagine, but they were not evil.

Offering knowledge and wisdom, they would ask for a price, it may be in exchange for some kind of material thing, such as precious metals or jewels. Or it would be in exchange for something less tangible, such as taking away your ability speak, see, feel, physically or emotionally, or other senses.

The price was only determined by the amount of knowledge you wished to learn, or how complicated it was. The fifth was a race of devilish looking beings, the colour of their flesh and skin were usually the same, but they could be all sorts of different colours.

They had a pair horns on the top of their heads that came in many different styles, from ones like horns on a bull, to spiralling goat horns, and their eyes were as black as pools of ink. Depending on how dark the skin colour of the devil was, they would be stronger in every way, physically, magically, and emotionally.

If their skin was lighter then they would be weaker, the colour of their skin also determines the hierarchy of the species. The strongest devil had been one that had pure black black eyes, skin, flesh, and horns, he was 10x stronger then the strongest Guardian currently on Earth, which was only around level 400.

Being put into scale, he was roughly as strong as an Exterminator that had just been created, and he was significantly weaker than the Mushroom Being. Finally, the last race was a race of plant beings.

Their race had the appearance of a tree entangled in vines, they had two arms, two legs, a head, and a pair of horns that looked like branches. Standing at roughly 50 metres tall when fully grown, they would continue to grow the stronger they became, and the strongest was over 200 metres tall.

Currently, the strongest and most knowledgeable beings of each race was attending a meeting about what to do with Earth, they had been able communicate with each other because of unnaturally large mushrooms that had grown and connected their planets together.

Originally, they had started battling, but they stopped after a few days since they had a common enemy, the Sporelings. Even so, they still held prejudice against each other, but some of them were closer to others.

The plant beings, half human half mammal beings, the half human half reptile beings, and the beings that took on the worst form you could imagine had created an alliance and got along remarkably. However, the devils and angelic beings didn't like the other races but liked each other, and they created an alliance.

Earth hadn't yet been fully connected to the other planets yet, it was just being dragged through space by the Mushroom Being, but it was rich in resources. Choosing which race was going to takeover the planet, the alliance between the two races proposed to go down and wipe out all intelligent life forms.

"How could we do that! Would you have liked if when we found your planet we just went down and wiped all of you out?! No, you wouldn't have!" It was the plant being that said this as they stood up in anger.

All six races were sitting at a rectangular table, the alliance of four was sitting on one side while the alliance of two was sitting on the other side. Using magic to make itself smaller, the plant being was only two metres tall, the same size as four of the other races.

The knowledge being's form was different for all of the other races, so it's form was different in each of the other five races' eyes. No one had actually seen the original form of the beings that would give you knowledge, so they always just assumed that they were just magical entities that had no original form.

Laughing demonically, the two race alliance looked at the plant being mockingly, "Do you think that you actually have the power to do that? How laughable." Coming from the strongest Devil, both of the races then covered their mouths and laughed.

"Just because you are slightly stronger then each of us doesn't mean that we can't beat you together, we have numbers while you don't." This sentence came from the strongest reptilian half human, which was a draconic looking being with a scaled metallic body.

It was the colour of steel while having a pair of folded wings on it's back, the arms and legs had veins of white fire flowing in them that could be seen through the scales, and a pair of jagged horns were atop it's head along with a crown made of some kind of weird metal.

"Are you threatening us?" With the smiling expression disappearing from their faces, the angelic being asked this while staring straight at the draconic being. "No, we aren't. We are warning you, if you touch that planet without our permission, it will mean war. All beings have a right to live."

This time, it came from the half mammalian being, which was a bipedal tiger with blue eyes, white fur that had dark green stripes, and large teeth like swords. Looking at each other, the Devil and Angelic being eyes twitched, they had already sent scouts to that planet.

Observing the two, the draconic being noticed something and turned to it's companion the knowledge bearer, which appeared as the Mushroom Being, and he asked a question. "Have the Devils and Angels already sent troops to the planet we are currently discussing?"

Reaching out it's hand, the being took a scale from the draconic being's body, and then it replied. "Yes, they sent their weakest members to infiltrate the civilization." Furiously turning to the two beings, the draconic being roared. "HOW DARE YOU!"

After the roar, a fight broke out between the two sides, the winner of which will be unknown. Observing this through a mushroom, the Mushroom Being, who could see just about everything in every planet that had it's spores on it, started clapping heartily.

Having watched for a few more minutes, it stopped watching and started trying to solve the cube, it wanted to make sure that the cube had enough sides to teleport a far enough distance away that the Exterminators couldn't find it easily.

Even though this being had many years to solve the cube, it couldn't do it. The reason being that it would require more and more strength to try and turn the cubes each time a side was solved, and this was the only thing stopping it from solving the cube.

(AN. Yeah yeah, this isn't a very long chapter, but I'm not sure what else I should put in the prologue. Don't matter, I will just make the next chapters a little longer. Peace out!)
