Chapter 251 Demon!
The siblings stood up from their seats to clearly observe the celestial bodies. Alexander, determined to finish the task that their father gave them, smiled with anticipation and replied, "Then, there's no time to waste."
As he said this, Denos fished out a coin from his pocket. He then motioned them to follow him.
They then reappeared within the Hall of Knowledge, filled with new books and a greater amount of shelves.
Throwing the coin upwards, Denos shouted, "Orders from the Creator's Offsprings, we shall terraform the Diserian System!"
Answering his call, thousands of Overseers, Patrollers, Gods, and Scholars emerged from behind the bookshelves, with their eyes filled with obvious anticipation as they began to plan the task at hand. Together with the Divine Siblings, the creation of a new system that can support life started to go underway.
After planning the structure with the help of the scholars, the other powerful beings started to leave the Hall of Knowledge for the Diserian System to begin terraforming.
Everyone started to work, with the Gods beginning to fix the landscape, create an atmosphere, develop lifeform, migrate bacterias, activating different elements within the land while the Watchers and Patrollers helped on transportation and other things. Days later, someone unexpected arrived, which made the job much faster than ever before.
"Uncles and Aunts!" Mackenzie shouted excitedly
Four people floating through space felt their presence. They flew towards the site and were shocked, "Mackenzie? What's all this?" A woman clothed in a splendid purple robe exclaimed.
"We are terraforming this system, Aunt Sana." She replied sheepishly while hugging her.
The others, namely Key, Jeremy, and Sky, also weren't spared and were hugged by Mackenzie. Among those who knew Mackenzie, the four were definitely her greatest pamperers. "Where's your father?" Asked Key with a joyful light teeming in his eyes.
With the mention of her father, Mackenzie's shoulders drooped, which did not go unnoticed from the four. "Did something happen to Matthias?" Jeremy's voice filled with solemnity asked her as he gazed at Mackenzie with a worried look.
"Father stayed within the Divine Realm to oversee it. Considering what had happened, he was worried that there might be more hiding within the Divine Heaven." Behind her, Alexander stepped forward and answered his Uncle Jeremy's question.
"What happened, Alexander?" Jeremy questioned as he straightened up and looked at him.
"We shouldn't talk about it out here, Uncle. After the terraformation of the system, we should talk within the Hall of Knowledge later." Alexander did not answer immediately and only replied briefly.
Jeremy and the others nodded. Without being prompted to, they immediately went forward and helped them with the terraforming.
Days passed, and the development of the world started to reach its final stages. Suddenly, an eerie black figure appeared near the system.
Of course, because of the strong baleful aura that was enveloping the figure was so obvious, everyone immediately saw it and became alert.
The figure was covered in a dark and grim haze. No one could see past it, and the only thing that could be seen within it was its murderously gleaming blue eyes.
"Kekekeke…" The figure laughed seemingly with amusement, "Are you finally developing the Diserian System for this lord? It seems that my threats have been enough."
"Who is that?" Alexander, baffled and alarmed at the figure's sudden appearance, asked Denos who was beside him.
"That bastard…" Denos growled hatefully, "A few centuries have already passed, but his sins have always remained deep within our souls.."
"He devoured his brothers, slaughtered his clan and kin, and wreaked havoc wherever he desired." Denos continued as he glared at the figure.
Bai Xia rushed beside them as she asked, "What are we going to do with him, my love?"
"Call Xuan over. Make haste." Denos answered. With that, Bai Xia immediately turned around and transformed into light as her figure disappeared into space.
"Oh how funny you are, Keeper." The figure cackled sinisterly, "Do you think that Xuan would have any power to stop me? Don't delude yourself." f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
"Return from whence you came, Demon! You have no authority here!" Alexander stepped forward and declared.
"Hmm?" Intrigued, the figure turned to look at him. Suddenly, a flash of shock could be seen in his eyes, but it was immediately replaced with a look of anger. "You! Why do you have the aura of that hateful man?!" It screamed. The haze that was enveloping it suddenly shifted into a sanguine color, and its movement also became more crazed.
It held and scratched its head like a maniac as its body shivered in wrath. Shrieking, it shot towards Alexander.
"Alexander!" Denos and the other deities of Matheon grimaced.
Boom!
A strong shockwave boomed from the point of impact. All were shocked and speechless, seeing what happened next..
"He.. was sent back?!" Denos exclaimed with his eyes widened.
The figure, who was known as the most powerful and hated being that is the enemy of all the gods who charged crazily towards the Divine Heaven's Crowned Prince, was sent back.
They then turned their heads at Alexander who had changed so much. His body was clad in a heavenly armor, patterned with golden leaves, laurels, and the rays of the sun. In his hand was The Spear of Kelseus, now forged by the flames of war, blood of the divine, and the souls of higher beings. It radiated with terror unlike any weapon known to the gods of Matheon.
"Uncle Denos, it seems you have been underestimating Eldest Brother too much." Mackenzie chuckled as she and her siblings stepped forward.
"Except for being the caring eldest brother, I am also the Empire's God of War, Crowned Prince, and specially.." He paused, and a smirk appeared on his face, "I am The Divine Emperor's son."
The complexity of Denos and the others' faces lightened up as they looked at Alexander's majestic stature.
While waving the Spear of Kelseus around, Alexander "walked" towards the shocked figure menacingly, "Father and I have a lot of differences. His strength, for one, is way past mine."
"His power, similarly vast."
"His demeanor, too carefree."
"But, despite all that differences, we have a similarity. And that is, as Lord Father once told me.."
"No being who stands in our way must survive." Alexander's tone got so cold that even his allies' spine chilled whilst looking at the dominant prince.
"Kuaaaaaaahh!!! Kill!" The figure, maddened by the provocation, conjured a black ball of smog, which made Denos' and the other deities' pale.
"Alexander, don't let yourself be hit by that smog!" Denos warned hastily.
Alexander scoffed and smirked. Instead of going away, he held his spear with his two hands and pointed it towards the figure, "Come!" He shouted.
Growling, the figure dashed straight towards him, and raised its hand that was similar to claws as it aimed towards the Crowned Prince's neck.
Boom!
Waving his spear, Alexander slashed at the incoming enemy and once again, sent it flying back.
This time, the hazy fog that was enveloping the figure dispersed, revealing to everyone a languid-looking pale man. His unkempt void black hair draped down to his back. His red eyes were now looking at Alexander with fright.
"N-No… Impossible.." The man shuddered in fright, "You can't possibly have dispersed my Void Smog!"
"Hmm?" Alexander narrowed his eyes in suspicion, "So that was what it is. I felt something strange when I struck that thing just now." He muttered.
"Still, even in all its greatness, it's still impure." Alexander smirked, "Your Void Smog, although filled with mysterious power, still has Yin Energy within it."
"No Yin Energy would survive against the Spear of Kelseus." Han Yue chuckled as she looked at the horrified man.
"What do you mean?" Denos asked.
"The Spear of Kelseus was made by Lord Father. He said it was made from the Salacemun Bead within Aqiartha that radiates Eternal Yang, a special metal that contains and controls wild energies, and was baptized by the Star of Freimun with Heavenly Power and his personal Heavenly Authority." Han Yue explained, "The weapon is basically designed especially to go against Yin creatures and other entities leaning on to the Evil Yin side."
"Bastard!" At this time, a huge dragon started to zoom past different planets towards them with great wrath. As it neared them, it gradually transformed into a humanoid figure.
"Xuan!" Denos exclaimed.
Bang!
The man, Xuan, as soon as he arrived in front of the languid man, immediately punched him in the face, sending the man flying at a very terrifying speed.
Xuan then immediately disappeared from his position and reappeared in front of the man's flight path and slammed his two fists down at the man.
The one-man assault repeated several times before Alexander finally intervened. "Uncle Xuan."
"Out of my way, Alexander. Even if you are Father's son, I will still not spare you if you stop me from killing this demon!" The unkempt, savage, and wrathful Xuan growled with burning eyes as it glared at the man.
