1144 17.71 Fourth Violet Star - Temporary Merging of Souls

"Tun. s.h.i.+. Zhe! (World Eater)" bellowed Xue Hunluan. His eyes were full of rage as he glared at the young man before him.

Cain Nova von Imperlian responded, "I'm only following my creator's orders. He said you wanted that person dead anyway. Why are you getting angry now that he is dead? You're weird."

"I wanted him to die in my hands, not in others!" Xue Hunluan retorted.

Tsk!

"So Contradictive. He is dead already, what can you do now?" Cain Nova von Imperlian said.

Meanwhile, the others were stunned and despondent. They eventually identified the lost Crown Prince's face, and Emperor Cale Meijer von Imperlian was outraged as well as deeply saddened.

"Is that the Crown Prince!? He had disappeared all of a sudden only to appear and do such an awful thing!!! Such an unfilial son! He deserves to die!"

"Imperial Father, please calm down. It's bad for your heart, anger is." The Second Prince said.

Silvan von Rosegard commented, "What is that on his back? Is that wings? b.u.t.terfly Wings?"

"Is there a b.u.t.terfly wing that ugly? Aren't b.u.t.terfly wings supposed to flap even when at rest?" Jace Green von Imperlian said.

Lieutenant General Zephyr von Gretel was shocked to see the wings on the Crown Prince's back, "Impossible! Isn't that the Interstellar Moth Race!? It cannot be, we have already made use of that race becoming extinct as they destroy the Interstellar System!"

"Wife, what is an Interstellar Moth Race? Are they dangerous?" General Nimbus von Gretel asked.

Lieutenant General Zephyr von Gretel answered, "It is an extremely greedy race who loves to destroy the ecology of the stars. They love to eat meat and this is regardless of race. A Carnivorous Bug Race which is considered a pest in Interstellar World."

Meanwhile, Megan Sh.e.l.ley, whose presence was overwhelmed by the entrance of the Grand Marshal and no one realized he was there, asked in confusion, "Why is no one asking about the death of the Grand Marshal? Do no one cares?"

"Saying that we don't care is not entirely wrong but... Didn't you already know what he is? Would he die with a heart missing like this?" Dean Frey von Gregory said. "Moreover, I am more afraid that Lord Yara would suddenly appear and see this scene. That's a disaster we can never avoid."

Inside the s.p.a.cecraft, silence descended. Just thinking about Yara von Chrysalis, who is regarded as a force in this planet, seeing his pair dead would undoubtedly bring problems. They are terrified of what is to come.

System Yue said, [Someone is coming through s.p.a.ce.]

As he spoke, the sound of gla.s.s breaking resounded across the neighborhood, and a ma.s.sive s.p.a.ce Fissure emerged out of nowhere. A white and enormous thing that like a strange bird emerges from it, carrying the man they were discussing just now on its back.

System Yang commented, [Master has arrived].

---

Yara von Chrysalis, who was riding Reine, the White Phoenix Dragon Hybrid, across the galaxy without a stars.h.i.+p, was safeguarded the entire time by his Quantum Beast. Under Reine's protection, the two traversed galaxies and s.p.a.ce. Reine, on the other hand, did not dare to take the Master away without taking care of Yara's mortal vessel. As they travel approach the coordinates of the Imperium Star, he reduces his speed across s.p.a.ce. They journeyed via s.p.a.ce tunnels built by Reine using his ability to manipulate s.p.a.ce components. It's far quicker than riding in a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p with Reine at the controls.

Reine says, "Master, we are almost near the coordinates of the Imperium Star. Please hold on my back to avoid the distortion of opening the s.p.a.ce."

"We are here already! That's good. Let's go, Reine?" Yara von Chrysalis said.

As they reached the end of the s.p.a.ce tunnels, Reine, the White Phoenix Dragon Hybrid, upped its speed significantly. It ripped into the s.p.a.ce before it with its beaks and claws, arriving at the coordinates of the Imperium Star in an instant.

"Master, we're here!" Reine said.

But what awaits them is absolutely horrifying. It was the location of the Grand Marshal's death in the hands of the Crown Prince, with Brown Moth Wings on its back. The crown prince's fingers pierced through the Grand Marshal's body from behind, digging out his heart. A fist-sized hole spurting blood indefinitely was left behind when the hand was removed.

The death scene from Caesar Mitch.e.l.l von Imperlian plays in slow motion and loop in Yara von Chrysalis' head. He was speechless and unsure how to respond at this point. It didn't take long for the rest of the world to learn of Yara von Chrysalis's arrival. Roi's screaming cries were filled of anguish at his master's death and gladness at meeting his pair the minute the s.p.a.ce was broken by Reine.

Crackles~ cracks...

The s.p.a.ce distortion from which Reine and Yara von Chrysalis emerged fixed itself, but no one could see it because Yara von Chrysalis was on the top of a large white quantum beast that resembled a phoenix with dragon lineage. Warden Lou and Dean Frey von Gregory were concerned that things would not end just because Lord Hei's incarnation had witnessed the Lord G.o.d's death. They had a scenario where Lord Hei would go insane whenever something occurred to the G.o.d of Void. They weren't sure if this would happen with his incarnation as well.

Meanwhile, System Yang and System Yue were s.h.i.+vering as they could plainly feel the changes in the s.p.a.ce. Hei Anjing is a G.o.d who is descended from the Hei Family, the Master of s.p.a.ce. Their emotions have an impact on the place itself, especially when they are out of control.

System Yue commented, [It's the end. Lord Hei is extremely angry!]

[The Mortals can stay here. Yue put them inside your domain of s.p.a.ce. Try your best to keep them alive.] System Yang said.

System Yue said, [I can only put them on the borders. The s.p.a.ce elements are now listening to the feelings of Lord Yara. Do you think Lord Hei would wake up?]

[...Maybe, he will.] System Yang said.

The death of the G.o.d of Void is a terrible moment for Yara von Chrysalis no, who is Hei Anjing's manifestation. This is true whether or not he has his memories. It was the most depressing scene Hei Anjing had ever witnessed. He had witnessed his fated lover's death when he was just a few months old. It was as if time had s.h.i.+fted in front of him, and innumerable memories he'd never had before had suddenly returned to him.

In that Dark Domain, he remembered himself as the Lonely Snow. In the Mo Family, the small baby was born as Hei Anjing. As well as the G.o.d of Destruction, who is feared as the fiercest Executioner and who globe hopped in numerous worlds merely to discover his beloved's Soul Fragment. Traumatic recollections suddenly flood his head.

The sorrow of the Void's corruption, the loss of Xia Jieye, and the innumerable lives and deaths of his beloved as an observer are too numerous to list. But what hurts him the most are the scenes of death his Xia witnessed as a mortal and as a result of himself. The ache in his skull was enough to wreck his sanity, but his other self's familiar voice had let him accept everything.

Hei Anjing's voice resounds in his mind, {Sleep. Digest all memories and leave the rest to me. Once you wake up, everything will be alright.}

Yara von Chrysalis felt a mysterious tiredness strike his spirit, and he eventually fell asleep, as if attempting to forget the scene of the Grand Marshal's death, who was his everything.

"Okay. I will leave it to you. Please save Caesar."

{I will. I promise.}

Only after hearing this pledge did Yara von Chrysalis relinquish control of his body to the other voice on his body. Their soul link has been healed when Hei Anjing entered his Soul Domain that one night. As long as Yara von Chrysalis lived his life in this world until the end, his soul would return to Hei Anjing and merge with him.

Even though the G.o.d of Destruction was unable to awaken in his physical body, his spirit is free to communicate with the other soul fragments. If they accept him, a link will be made between the Main Soul and the Soul Fragment, and the former may always provide a hand in the midst of an emergency like this one.

As Yara von Chrysalis' spirit fell asleep, his black hair grew longer and lighter in color, although his silver eyes retained glimpses of black linings. Yara von Chrysalis is born with a face that is icy and expressionless. Because he is still young and hasn't experienced much of the world, he still has innocence in his eyes. This time, however, things are different.

The iciness within the depths of those silver eyes melts only for one person. His stare is filled with indifference and majesty, as if it were his prerogative to look down on everything in this world. The temperature in the region continues to decrease, and ice forms crystals in the vicinity, and snow falls over the dark galaxy, as if a winter that should not have existed suddenly come.

Only those who understood that this tableau was nothing more than the Ice Elements' welcoming entourage to their Master. Because these Ice aspects are combined with aspects of devastation and chaos, practically everyone is horrified by such a magnificent image. This is true whether one is mortal or divine. The G.o.ds who were sensitive to existing energies had it far worse.

They can sense an enormous difference in power between powers. After all, Hei Anjing's Origin reappeared as soon as his life as Hei Anjing ended. Being the G.o.d of Chaos means controlling all rules and laws in existence. Worse, this Chaotic Energy has fused with Destructive Energy, making it unpleasant and difficult to tolerate.

Everyone on the scene was restrained. They couldn't help but notice the guy who perched atop the White Phoenix Dragon Hybrid. Wearing modern clothing had no effect on the old aura that surrounded him, as if they could see him wearing a pristine white robe, even whiter than snow.

Yara von Chrysalis gazed about, unconcerned. His gaze lingered between Xue Hunluan and the guy who had once been his soul core. Then he diverted his attention and took a single stride, appearing before Xue Hunluan and hugging the vessel of the Grand Marshal in his arms.

"Hm~ He is napping too well. Heh~"

When Yara von Chrysalis arrived out of nowhere, Xue Hunluan and Cain Nova von Imperlian took a step back. They didn't even see him moving or how he appeared before their eyes. This demonstrated the vast gap in strength between them. A ma.s.sive chasm that no one could have predicted. Xue Hunluan was the one who was completely taken aback. He had always believed that his strength was already greater than that of the Main spirit, whose spirit had mainly scattered when he died at the end of the second trial.

'How is this possible? Aren't I supposed to be stronger than the main soul? How come I feel pressure just seeing a glimpse of the Main Soul?' Thoughts of Xue Hunluan in disbelief.

Meanwhile, Cain Nova von Imperlian's consciousness was being urged to depart by the voice of the World Eater. He just allowed a portion of his soul to enter this mortal's body and a.s.sisted him in fully merging with the lineage of the Interstellar Moth Race, which is intended to devour his soul during the merge.

'Run. The being in front of you can obliterate not only your body but also your soul. You will return to nothingness, never reincarnating!' Tun s.h.i.+ Zhe said to the Crown Prince.

Cain Nova von Imperlian replied, 'No. I can devour him as well. But I can't smell any scent on him. Why is that?'

'Because that one is not cla.s.sified as food, but someone who hunts us! Escape now before it's too late!' Tun s.h.i.+ Zhe said.

Tsk! Cain Nova von Imperlian, the Crown Prince, was upset with the retreat command but couldn't go against his creator. But before he could even turn around, his body was frozen. Eternal Ice is the one who is personally freezing him. As a result, he is unable to move his mouth to consume anything.

"What the h.e.l.l...!!!??" Cain Nova von Imperlian was completely covered in Eternal Ice which is unmeltable by anything except the h.e.l.l Flames.

Yara von Chrysalis glances at him coldly, "Did this Deity allow you to leave? Your punishment will be dealt with by the real Yara." A sarcastic yet mischievous smile appeared on the corner of his lips which is completely the same as what Xue Hunluan wore before.
