Lord of the Truth

Chapter 925: Dance of Death



Meanwhile---in a very distant place---in one of the corridors of a huge castle

*Clatter* *Clatter*

"...Has the father arrived yet?"

"We haven't been summoned yet, so... No, my lady, it doesn't seem like he's here yet." A girl wearing feminine war armor and covering most of her face with bandages bowed slightly and spoke with the utmost respect

She usually wouldn't act so formally with her mistress, but it was neccesary when there was someone else around, and in this case, there were dozens of guards lined up around them.

"Oh..."

"...My lady, you've been standing here for hours, aren't you bored?" After a short period of silence, the armored girl asked

Her lady didn't answer directly, but she looked at the horizon for a long time as if she hadn't heard anything.

In the back, her maid couldn't help but stare at her, just standing there it looked like a beautiful scene told in legends... Her stunning white hair in particular was eye-catching, even though it was tied with a long dagger-like pin, it looked like every strand of it was worth the world's treasures.

She wore a black mask that covered most of her face, only her rubies like bright red eyes and lips were visible. She definitely wore her loose black dress to cover herself entirely, yet every single detail of her gorgeous slender body was still noticeable,

The masked girl looked at the horizon for a while longer, then said with a calm smile: "...It will never be boring to me."

"May I ask why, my lady? I find it..." The armored girl looked at the horizon through the huge corridor window, and only one word came to her mind: "Terrifying."

This castle was built on the highest mountain on the planet, its construction dimensions were completely unnatural, everyone moving inside it was the same size as humans, and yet there were rooms the size of villages and halls the size of cities, this random corridor where the two girls stopped had a ceiling thirty meters high and the same width, enough for an army to pass through, yet it's supposed to be just a random corridor to move between bedrooms!

Those stifling dimensions were nothing to the armored girl, yet now in front of her as she looked through one of the hundreds of huge windows along the corridor, a view that took her heart and breath away...

The sun of the planet was dancing~

In short, A sun is a stable star located at a certain distance from a planet, any planet containing life must be near a stable star to gain light and warmth from it and be bound by its gravity. If the distance between them is too far, too close, or if the star is unstable, the living planet will turn into a mere asteroid, a floating rock without a purpose.

But what the two see now contradicts that logic... The sun of this planet was not stable at all, they saw with their own eyes orange explosions occurring on the surface of the sun, they saw a gray energy emerging from the interior of the sun and enveloping those explosions to suppress them... Then they saw other gray explosions occurring and saw the orange energy suppressing them!

Usually, when these explosions start, the two forces stop each other on the surface of the sun, but in some cases, perhaps every few months or every few hundred years, one of the explosions from the two forces manages to escape and head toward the planet in the form of energy belt.

When the orange belt hits the planet, a scorching wave occurs everywhere it touches, technically mortals are instantly roasted to death, grass life is wiped out, and some rocks are melted. But when the gray belt touches the ground, that ground turns into a land of death.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At least if you were when the orange belt hit you you might be able to withstand the burn and escape, if you were very strong you wouldn't be badly hurt... At least the grass life would come out better because the ashes of its predecessor acted as fertilizer for it. As for the area that touches the gray energy belt, it doesn't matter if you are human, beast, or plant, everything just fades away.

*Exhale* "You won't understand no matter how hard I try to explain..." The girl with the mask sighed as she watched the sun's explosions.

When this *dance of death* first started millions of years ago as the sun started producing that terrifying gray energy, the inhabitants thought that their sun was dying and that they would inevitably follow it, but something strange happened as the orange energy of the sun started fighting and creating a balance, eventually producing this unique black orange sun.

Of course, this solar battle led to waves upon waves of extinction on the planet's surface, but it also led to a change in the survivors. That single sun produced powerful people with an extraordinary affinity for a heavenly law that was said to be impossible to use, who in turn created a unique Galaxy.

So in the eyes of the girl with the mask, this supernatural event that her eyes saw, was the origin of everything around her, the ginisis.

*Clatter*

"Oh no..." The armored girl automatically took a step back, this time the dance of death wouldn't go well, one of the gray explosions had escaped and there was an energy belt heading quickly toward the planet, "I have to tell everyone!!"

"No need, no one will care... just enjoy the show." The masked girl didn't seem to care much

Indeed, the guards who filled the corridor and stood by every window didn't move a step or even look behind them, to them it was normal... The gray belt would descend and claim a few thousand, or even hundreds of thousands of lives, what's the problem with that? It's not like the planet's inhabitants haven't gotten used to it yet.

No matter how many years have passed since the first dance of death, no matter how advanced the current population is... That gray belt contains the major heavenly law of destruction, there are a few innovations made to warn people of where the energy belt will land, maybe a few defensive arrays placed on the most important places like this castle, but that's all. "Hmm?" At this moment, the girl with the mask narrowed her red eyes, someone had appeared above the castle.

That person was standing in the middle of the air with an unnatural majesty, his body was of average height and build, he had gray hair that reached his shoulders, and although his features were not fully visible from that angle, it could be seen from his taut skin and drawn jawbone that he was a handsome man who was about forty by the mortal age.

That person looked up with a smile, then said the most arrogant thing a person could say, "No, not today, Sun of Destra, how could I allow such misfortune when I have just arrived?" Immediately after, he thrust his palm upwards towards the enormous gray belt.

*Hmmm*

The rapidly expanding palm slammed into the gray belt and immediately the two of them stopped, after which they just vanished without any explosion or energy waves, the palm contained enough power to completely nullify the belt in an unnatural display of infinite power and precision... everything ended with a thrust from his hand.

"Hmm?" When that person felt someone's eyes on his back, he turned around and smiled

when he saw the masked girl watching him from the window, "My dear Fifth, Helen, it's been

a long time."

The Masked girl, Helen, grabbed her dress at the ends and bowed slightly, "You are late,

Father."
