Chapter 152: New Visitor
Deep in the void, far beyond the furthest reaches of humanity and even the most ancient Beasts, a galaxy shimmered into existence. It teemed with life, its countless planets a vibrant tapestry against the dark.
On one of the largest planets in this galaxy, a man in a long, black overcoat hovered effortlessly in mid-air, his arms folded behind his back. Two feet behind him stood a young lady, appearing to be in her early twenties, with long, flowing golden hair and striking red eyes.
"Master... What happened?" she finally broke the silence, her voice a soft murmur.
"A fool escaped during the war," the man replied, his tone even. He stretched out one hand and snapped his fingers.
Whoosh!
The space before them tore open, revealing a monstrous creature – a beast known to Christopher as the Origin of Darkness. The creature raised its massive head, its gaze fixed on the tearing space and the two figures on the other side. All the surrounding beasts in the cave also lifted their heads, their attention drawn to the rift.
"I see you escaped from the war," the man stated, his voice resonating through the void.
*****Supreme Ruler, Michael... I knew the moment I woke up, you would detect me... That’s why I have been sleeping for centuries.***** The creature responded, its voice a guttural rumble that echoed in the emptiness.
"Let me ask you... What is your goal on that planet?" Michael inquired, his brown eyes narrowing slightly.
*****My goal?? Of course, to destroy this whole world... I will have my revenge!***** The Origin of Darkness roared.
"You are a fool!" the lady spat out, her red eyes flashing. "Destroy the world and have revenge on my master? You do know any death on that planet has nothing to do with him, right?! It won’t even affect my master in the slightest!!"
