Chapter 161: The Strange Man, A Shocking End!



Chapter 161: The Strange Man, A Shocking End!

Nero had found himself in a familiar but dark space, a broad zone that resided at the center of his mind.

'Where... where am I? Is this... death?'

He thought while floating around for what seemed like an eternity. Finally, he arrived before a much older version of himself who stood at the center of this darkness.

Knowing full well who it was, Nero opened his mouth to speak but soon found that he couldn't say anything, his consciousness within his mind, growing hazy as after struggling to say something, he soon fell into a deep slumber.

Adult Nero looked down at his younger form, staring at him with a hint of iciness in his eyes, but that soon faded as it turned a bit gentle. He sighed with a complicated gaze which showed a recollective manner only for a few seconds before they hardened.

"It looks like this is it... It's a pity, but I have no choice but to take things from here."

When Adult Nero said this, his manner soon became solemn and cold, a dark aura rising from his body much richer than any other devils, black energies of dense murderous desire.

If one looked at his frame, they would see countless dark World Spirits chewing away at his soul, mocking and laughing with the majority glaring at him with endless desire for vengeance.

Adult Nero's red pupils glowed in a bright ray as he opened his mouth prepared to say something, but before he could do so, a voice sounded from all directions giving him a shock as not only did it cancel his entire power but suppressed his existence.

"This isn't your fight; your time isn't here."

Listening to the words spoken, Adult Nero stared in all directions in shock as the resonant voice drastically shook his spirit.

'What kind of strength is this? I'm certain that even those of the Supremacy Class are impossible to seal my peak Master Rank strength, so who, or what did I just meet?'

Adult Nero thought as he carefully eyed the word of pitch black. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down, showing a profound set of eyes as he stared at his younger self's consciousness that floated before him with a tinge of gentleness, he soon spoke as if speaking to himself.

"It looks like I won't need to lift a hand; I'll get to stay with you a bit longer..."

As he said those words, his attention soon after shifted from Nero's consciousness to the outside world, where his eyes narrowed as he saw the entity that had spoken, a being beyond his imagination.

An odd silence now filled the entire royal chamber as everyone had a drastic change of expression due to the current display.

"What? Just what the heck am I seeing?" Crazy Blade said in horror.

"Is... is that thing the same monster we just struggled to fight?" Thunder's Daughter exclaimed as she stared at the scene.

Mikan and Ivy also looked over with different expressions, Mikan being shocked, while Ivy transitioned from initial worry for Nero to alarm due to the change.

"Who... who the hell... is that?" Elly said as she tried to catch her breath, trying to push away a large rock that had pinned down her leg, her now exhausted but beautiful eyes staring at Nero as a silhouette appeared before him.

It was a strange but familiar man before Nero, one with long half brown and half crimson hair. He wore ancient armor as a worn cape wrapped around his figure, which emanated a power that seemed to destroy all within its surroundings.

Red Rain had a shocked expression on her face as even she couldn't keep an indifferent air when she stared at that man, feeling as if she wasn't looking at a person, but rather, a universe.

'Such a powerful being. I've never felt anything like this. No one in our race has such a presence...' She thought with a set of deep eyes while contemplating the scenario.

Mia was also puzzled; she stared deeply at the stranger with thoughtful eyes as she murmured, "The ancestors had never mentioned a being like this. It looks like I'll need to spread this news if we can make it out alive in one piece..."

When Mia said this, her attention quickly fixed once more onto the dreadful Master of Horrors who had been dominating them in entirety. Yet, not only her but everyone else who glanced towards him showed astonishment as they saw an incredible picture.

"Y-Y-You... how could it be? How did you find me here?"

The Master of Horror's said as he looked at the place where his arm reached; a human-sized palm had grasped a small portion of his wrist by its side with its thumb and index finger.

The Master of Horror tried to fall back, but his eyes shone in fear when he noticed that his massive arm, which was even larger than the man's body, couldn't even escape his pinch hold. Now, his body trembled as his once glorious presence now seemed no different from a meek lifeform.

Suddenly, the odd man lifted his head, which was previously staring down at the collapsed Nero with interest. Now, everyone saw a handsome face with an indifferent look. His red and brown eyes were gazing at the very world as if he was a detached existence.

He stared at no one else but the Master of Horror's as he spoke with a strange smile on his face, "Malorvin, I went to great lengths to find which of the endless dimensions your main body had vanished, and then searching took even me quite some time. Hmph! Running around like some little rat, you truly are as your kind is said to be, quite wily indeed. Tell me, are you ready to face your judgment?"

Elly and the others looked at the man with wide mouth's hearing how he mocked that boss as if he was nothing more than an ant. Yet, the reaction of the Master... no, Malorvin was another that blew their minds.

As if he'd gone insane, Malorvin shouted at the man, "It's impossible! I refuse to believe that you could find me here! I destroyed the formation, no one should be able to restore it. You wouldn't be able to achieve such a feat, not unless. Not unless you became the In... huh?"

The strange man remained silent as if he didn't care about Malorvin's words, but at this time, Malorvin's eyes opened in even more fear as he stared at the man's neck, "That... that pendant, it couldn't be..."

"Time's up." The strange man said as he slowly raised his arm; Malorvin didn't even hesitate to make a startling reaction.

'I have to escape; if he's that Inheritor, then I must get away as far as I can!' Malorvin thought, feeling as if his life was in the utmost peril.

Instantly, a wave of black blood spewed about like rain as he tore off the arm which the man held with his other hand. His body then transformed into a ray of light as he rapidly retreated, showing utter disregard for the Universe Ring, which would send its power to create a backlash.

The man shook his head as he spoke, "You won't be able to escape this time; accept your fate. Void Execution..."

With those words, the space around the man started to distort as if it was falling into chaos. Instantly, a series of invisible star-like blades bolted towards the distance, rapidly catching up to Malorvin, Malorvin stared at the space around in horror and tried to fight back, but sadly, it was a futile attempt.

"Noooo! Daammmnnn youuuu E..." Malorvin was about to say something as he struck a devasting palm outwards, sending dark energies about the distant sky to counterattack, but sadly, he never had a chance.

The sky collapsed around his body with a bang, forming into what seemed like a black hole. This hole shredded all things within its range before vanishing in an instant as if it didn't appear, returning all items to normal.

Elly and the others looked at this scene in horror. But the man merely glanced at them before glancing at Nero. He stared at him, calmly with deep eyes that seemed as if he could see the past and the future, showing a hint of painful recollection.

He soon sighed, saying nothing in the end, with a wave of his hand, the pipe organ of the royal chamber and blood mood vanished into thin air before a rift appeared in front of him, swallowing him as he faded from the world, leaving behind a confusing scene.

  1. Okay, so some of you might have guessed who this is and where he came from, but for now, just think of it as temporary as I am pondering to end that series on Webnovel and reboot it as a brand new story on Amazon due to lack of interest. Still, it's not yet decided, maybe early next month I will have a clear decision, for now, just think that the person behind this name along with mysterious man as temp existences that might be restarted.
