Chapter 947 Guardian of the Cosmos

The spear, an ominous manifestation of Rudy's power, streaked through the cosmos with relentless velocity. In mere moments, it had propelled George beyond the boundaries of the solar system, and then... he was gone. A sense of eerie finality hung in the air, as if the universe itself had swallowed George whole.

Rudy, his form a solitary silhouette against the backdrop of the vast cosmos, gazed into the emptiness that had consumed his adversary. His expression bore a hint of something indescribable, a mixture of relief and regret. The black matter spear had served its purpose with ruthless efficiency, obliterating George into the tiniest particles, ensuring there was no trace left to betray his existence.

The weight of his actions pressed upon Rudy's conscience, a burden he hadn't fully antic.i.p.ated. He muttered softly to himself, the words carrying a solemn tone, "I... killed George. I killed... Alice's... father..."

For so long, Rudy had regarded George as the epitome of a devoted family man, a protector, and a pillar of support. It was an image he had clung to since childhood, one that had shattered as he grew more cautious, uncovering the unsettling truths hidden beneath George's facade.

Rudy's figure hung amidst the cosmic vastness, his voice almost a whisper in the emptiness of s.p.a.ce. He let out a sigh, as if releasing the heavy burden he had shouldered throughout this encounter. "Well, now that it's over, let's go home. I will have some fun with mom," he muttered to himself, the words carrying a mixture of relief and lingering unease.

Though he spoke with a semblance of composure, deep down, a storm of emotions raged within him.The weight of what he needed to tell Alice bore down upon him like an insurmountable burden. How could he possibly inform her of the grim reality, that he had taken the life of her father?

Alice had remained blissfully unaware of the darkness that had shrouded George, seeing him as a loving parent who cared deeply for her. She had no inkling of the atrocities he had committed, the heinous actions that had led Rudy to this fateful decision. George was a man who, in Rudy's eyes, didn't deserve to live, but how could he reveal this truth to the girl he cherished above all else?

As Rudy contemplated the difficult conversation ahead, his heart ached with the knowledge that he would be shattering the world Alice knew, replacing it with a harsh reality she might never be prepared to accept.

In the boundless expanse of the cosmos, Rudy was on the brink of initiating his teleportation back to Earth. His powers coiled within him, ready to propel him across the astral distances. But just as he was about to make his departure, an acute surge of energy a.s.saulted his senses. It was a palpable force, hurtling toward him with alarming velocity.

Rudy's reaction was swift and calculated. He pivoted on the spot, his gaze locking onto the ominous sight of the very same black spear hurtling directly at him. It was a perilous predicament, one that could not be taken lightly.

Dodging the incoming threat was almost second nature to Rudy. With the grace of a seasoned warrior, he elegantly maneuvered out of the spear's deadly trajectory. The lethal weapon sailed past him, missing its intended mark by a considerable margin.

Once Rudy had ensured his immediate safety, he took a moment to a.s.sess the situation. His keen senses went into overdrive as he scanned the surrounding s.p.a.ce, even activating his potent vision abilities, which allowed him to perceive the universe in ways beyond human comprehension.

However, the source of the threat remained elusive, obscured by a nebulous shroud of energy that permeated the cosmos. Rudy's enhanced vision abilities, while formidable, proved to be of limited use in this scenario. The overwhelming abundance of energy in the cosmic expanse made it nearly impossible to pinpoint a specific origin.

A theory took root in Rudy's mind, one that seemed implausible, yet he couldn't dismiss it entirely. Could the spear, in some unfathomable manner, have reversed its course autonomously after traversing the unforgiving vacuum of s.p.a.ce? It was a notion that defied the laws of physics, but Rudy had learned never to underestimate the mysterious forces that governed his universe.

As Rudy grappled with these perplexing questions, he decided to take a more proactive approach. A surge of power coursed through him as he channeled his abilities, materializing a formidable solution to the enigma that confronted him. He created a vortex, a gaping maw of pure darkness, which devoured everything in its path.

The black hole, sp.a.w.ned from Rudy's unfathomable mastery over energy, expanded voraciously. It swallowed cosmic matter and radiation with insatiable hunger, siphoning them into the abyss of nothingness. The very fabric of s.p.a.ce-time seemed to warp and contort as the black hole consumed everything in its vicinity.

This formidable act served two purposes. First, it neutralized the menacing black spear, drawing it into the inescapable grip of the black hole's event horizon. Second, it formed an impervious barrier around Rudy, s.h.i.+elding him from further harm.

With the danger averted, Rudy remained vigilant. His expression remained resolute, and his senses remained acutely attuned to any s.h.i.+fts in the cosmic balance. The confrontation with an enigmatic adversary amidst the boundless cosmos had taken an unexpected turn, and Rudy was determined to uncover the truth lurking within the celestial void.

In a heart-pounding moment, he deftly caught another of the malevolent black spears hurled at him. The distance between the spear's lethal tip and Rudy's head was negligible, less than that of a single hair's breadth. The sheer audacity of the attack sent s.h.i.+vers down his spine.

Rather than succ.u.mbing to fear or launching into a desperate search for the source, Rudy adopted a different strategy. He closed his eyes, blocking out the vast canvas of the cosmos around him. In that tranquil darkness, he focused his extraordinary powers on a singular intention: to teleport himself to the very origin point of the a.s.sault.

In an instant, s.p.a.ce and time folded around him. The stars themselves seemed to blur as Rudy traversed the universe at an incomprehensible speed. It was a journey measured in mere instants, yet it carried him to a destination of profound revelation.

As the veil of interstellar darkness dissipated, Rudy found himself suspended amidst the cosmic expanse. His senses flared to life, and he took in the astonis.h.i.+ng sight before him. It was a scene that defied all logic and reason.

Hovering weightlessly in the cosmic void, unscathed and resolute, was none other than George. He held in his grasp two of the ominous black spears, each radiating with malevolence. His presence amidst the celestial tapestry was an anomaly, a disruption of the natural order.

The bafflement that swept over Rudy was undeniable. His mind raced to process the inconceivable scenario before him. George, the man he had believed vanquished into oblivion, now confronted him in the frigid embrace of s.p.a.ce itself.

Rudy's gaze remained locked onto George, his expression a mixture of bewilderment and intrigue. He didn't speak immediately, for words alone could not encapsulate the complexity of this encounter. The enigmatic nature of the situation lingered like a shadow over their cosmic standoff.

Rudy's stance remained poised and ready. His senses buzzed with antic.i.p.ation, and the inexhaustible wellspring of energy within him stood at the ready. In this desolate corner of the universe, amidst the profound mysteries of s.p.a.ce, two figures stared each other downone a guardian of the cosmos, the OverLord of the universe, and the other a harbinger of inexplicable chaos.
