The Veilwalker-Chapter 456: No, They Didn’t (2)
"What is it?"
Drakmor furrowed his brows in confusion as he turned to Alex, who abruptly got to his feet. It was clear from the slight rise and fall of his shoulders that he was pissed by something.
"Some idiot had the bright idea of going after my universe," Alex replied with a sneer, turning to look at the dragon. "You told me no harm would come to my universe."
Realising the seriousness of the situation, Drakmor got up as well, his eyes narrowing slightly. Very quickly, he connected to some of his enforcers to find out what was happening.
It would have been a very easy thing if Alexander's universe were connected to the Supreme One like most universes were. Still, for someone to go after Alex's universe when they had something like a truce was a dick move.
'The gods…' Drakmor got his response a second later. 'How can they do something so stupid!' The dragon was already fuming. However, his expression remained as stoic as ever.
"I'll take care of this myself…" Alex said, his senses picking up the many eyes that quickly disappeared soon after. 'So, this was what it was about…'
He disappeared in a flash of light, the dragon and apprentice quick on his trail. This could get messy real quick if not handled with care.
The chief enforcer was not exactly sure what this was about. But he knew one thing: those gods did not like taking a loss. The only Being they had ever answered to was the Supreme One.
Even he, as a chief enforcer, could not move them. Not that he was weak and couldn't put them in their place. They were all servants of the Supreme One, so Drakmor could not really reprimand them, especially when he only came from a High-level Universe.
Reappearing in the void of space, Alexander looked around and quickly found his destination, his body flashing out once more and appearing before the secret realm used as the gathering place of the gods to discuss 'celestial' matters.
"Come out!"
Alex called out in a loud voice that rippled across the dense space. His expression was anything but pleasant; he was pissed and for a good reason.
"I won't say this more than twice!" Alex roared again, the very space around his body trembling. "Come out!"
Drakmor and Andrew arrived before Alex. The dragon stepped forward, getting in close to Alexander. "Mr. Gray. You don't have to do this…"
"I came here in good faith, Lord Drakmor." Alex's sharp eyes turned to the dragonic ones of Drakmor. "But these idiots don't seem to understand basic courtesy."
Suddenly, the secret realm shook, and a wave of invisible energy rippled out of the realm, disappearing in a flash. Someone was coming out and decided to make a show of their strength.
"Puny Human…"
The deep voice of the Being echoed across the void, causing the very space around to tremble for millions of kilometres.
That wave of energy was far heavier than what Alex felt from those gods from earlier. Clearly, this God was far, far stronger. Even then, Alex didn't flinch from their presence. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Watch your tone…" The voice continued as the space right in front of the secret realm tore open, letting out golden and white essence that further shook space. "You may be a veilwalker, but we have existed long before your universe was born.
"You will show respect!"
Space roared like thunder as the surrounding energies dispersed like raging winds, whipping across Alexander's body. Out of the tear in the fabric, a large ethereal entity with a body resembling the backdrop of a universe grabbed both sides of the tear and 'crawled' out, its size rivalling a supermassive star.
"You talk of respect?" Alex sneered in disgust. "You're nothing but a bunch of hypocrites!"
BOOM…!
The heavens cried, and space collapsed with fractures stretching for thousands of kilometres. A devastating pressure capable of collapsing Low-level universes fell on Alex.
The dragon reacted almost instantaneously, strengthening his protective barrier around Andrew and attempting to do the same with Alex. However, just like before, he couldn't extend his powers over to Alex.
"Alex…!"
The dragon snapped his head over to Alex, his hand stretched out towards him. However, to his surprise and the surprise of everyone watching, he remained unmoved.
"..."
The god whom Alex just directed his insults at was one of the chief gods, master of a concept — the Concept of Spacetime.
Even Drakmor would be on his knees if he were just a veilwalker with only one core in his system. What he was seeing this time really left him shocked.
'He can't be this strong…!'
Drakmor was sure that, regardless of how strong Alex was with his unique energy, it shouldn't be enough for someone from a Low-level universe.
"You done?" Alex mocked in a calm voice, ignoring the cosmic-sized god and cracks that began healing.
The pressure was still attempting to crush him, however, it couldn't cross the 4-kilometre radius around Alex, creating a visible outline in space for all to see.
'So that's why…'
Drakmor recognised what it was, finally understanding why Alex never felt the pressure of the Supreme One's will in the Universe. 'I'm standing right inside and I couldn't tell…' He couldn't help but gulp, glancing at Alex with a bit of caution.
The Spacetime God couldn't believe what he was seeing with his celestial eyes. The puny Being that was no less than an ant withstood his presence like it was nothing — veilwalker or not.
"I'm warning you fools…" Alex's voice woke him and the others out of their shocked state. "Call your forces back in the next second before I wipe them out of existence."
"..."
Silence settled over the space as everyone couldn't believe their senses. Alexander did not show a shred of respect towards a chief god.
In the back, Andrew gulped as he stared at Alex's back, a strange feeling rising in his being. Just like he had thought, Alex looked scary when he was pissed; he was very protective of his universe.
"Haha… Hahaha…!"
The chief god suddenly burst out laughing. Despite what Alex displayed, he wasn't shaken, not even a little. "I now understand where your confidence comes from, human…
"But you forget! You're in Universe Prime, and until I say so, you're not going anywhere!" Space trembled once more as Alex sensed the surrounding fabric harden beyond normal. "And your other bodies won't be enough to stop what's happening."
The god put the universe on lockdown — no one was coming or going without his permission. Even a chief enforcer would have to ask his permission, after all, this was his universe, and he had its recognition.
"Is that right…?" Alex replied calmly, his brows slightly lifted. His words once again left many of the gods watching surprised. Ignoring the senses, Alex asked the question that was bothering him.
"Why exactly are you guys going after my universe?"
