A few minutes ago…At the moment the decadent horror was defeated and sealed away, in a place far far away, across trillions of light years, indeterminate dimensions and countless realms, a dark gaze opened amidst an endless sea of fire.A figure sitting on a throne of obsidian and bones awakened causing haunting wails and sorrowful howls to echo in the backdrop like some soul-stirring BGM dedicated to the character.Kasack, his gaze lazy and pained seemingly awakened from a dream. His consciousness hazy, the Shade lord looked around his lair as if to reorient himself.Many things have changed since the last time we were introduced to the inner sanctum of the Dark Star planet. The frenzied roar of the countless Shades and dark creatures subordinate to Kasack was gone, replaced instead by the screeching of undead souls tragically sacrificed to Kasack’s power’s growth.The flames in the pit burned hotter, emitting a dark blue tint at the bottom that made the lair darker and more siniste

Arran flew above earth, his body giving off soft milky starlight that wasn’t as intense as before. With a thought, a stream of that starlight separated from Arran and streaked toward Earth.Arran began carrying out the plan to stabilize Earth using the World Essence Pulse Bracers. In no time at all, the stream of energy entered Earth, disappearing just as it touched the barrier around the planet. There was already a connection between Earth and Arran so using this connection Arran could locate the core of Earth’s energy easily. That is the spark of origin.For the first time, Arran witnessed firsthand what the spark of origin looked like. This was Arran’s first glimpse of what origin looked like in its true form. The Essence of origin that was contained within the spark on earth opened a whole new world to Arran.Arran, whose intrinsic law that was awakened after opening the reality gate, was the law of origin. This was a law that contained the primal essence of all things. It was imp

There was nobody around except for Arran and the other Aeth, who looked at him with concern.“Your Highness, are you still hearing the whispers?”Joyner’s words were filled with a lot of concern for Arran’s condition. None of them thought he was making things up or going crazy.Everybody fully believed that there was something about this darkness that was unnatural so naturally something had to be behind it. What they couldn’t understand was why only Arran could detect this thing — and in such a bizarre way, too.Arran was just about to answer when he heard a voice this time, not just a whisper anymore… but before he could do that, the voice returned once again.“Don’t bother telling them about me. None of them can hear me remember. It’s only our fate bonds that allow us to communicate in this manner.”Once Arran heard this — as much as he wanted to deny it — he knew the voice was correct.Those words just now confirmed that it was truly through his heart that Arran was hearing that v

“Hahahaha…” Arran laughed mirthfully, his tongue drooling with derision as he denounced Kasack.“Look at you, you say that the destiny I own is not mine but was given by others, yet you claim to know my destiny, too. How different are you from the ones you so righteously rebuke?”“Whether my destiny is mine or not isn't for you to decide. But know this, someday you shall perish at by hand… and that is your destiny.”Arran defiantly proclaimed to kill Kasack, to which the Shade Lord sitting on his throne multiple dimensions away chuckled with amusement.This time, Kasack wasn’t angry at what Arran said. He felt it beneath him to squabble with an insect. Yet Kasack could not let Arran have the last word, so he said to him.“You speak of destiny so casually, yet you do not understand its power. Very well. We have both acknowledged our intent to kill the other. Then, as destiny proclaims, we shall see who lives and who dies.”“Be proud, young insect, for a mighty being has accepted your c

With a single motion, Arran exerted his power to pull the two figures from Earth. In the next moment, Poltergeist and Colonel Vehe, who had been trudging through the atmosphere to ascend above Earth, appeared beside Earth.When they appeared, the two of them bore looks of confusion on their faces seeing the unfamiliar environment they were in. Previously, they had still been a long distance away from exiting Earth’s atmosphere but in the blink of an eye; they had arrived in a place that was space.The round blue planet below their feet was evident enough that they were no longer on Earth. How this happened baffled them. It was like they had been teleported, which indeed they had.Setting himself as an anchor point, Arran had displaced Poltergeist and the colonel to his position using Magnetic Shift.There was no time to waste so Arran quickly said, “Both of you, why have you come here?”Poltergeist and Colonel Vehe were still confused and didn’t react to Arran’s question immediately.
