— 10 Days Later —— Rome —At Helena's cliffside home. Aurelia is learning how to cook some food from Liu Xiling while Tian Xiulan still has some matters to take care of on the other side so she didn’t come to this world along with Aurelia.***Ring—***A house bell rang, Aurelia asked Liu Xiling to watch over the food before running to the house's front door.“Yes?” Aurelia shouted as she appeared in front of the front door to see who rang the house doorbell.The one who rang the house doorbell was a police officer that frequently visits her mo
Ignatius is still dumbfounded at the current situation, he never thought that the situation would escalate this fast, and it’s getting worse and worse with every minute passing.“What!? Are they trying to kill me?” Ignatius blurted out as he was taken aback by a hot large caliber bullet that nearly entered his skull between his eyes.**Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!** **Ratatatatatata**Suddenly a hail of bullets came from the surrounding area but all of it stopped before entering the house area.“Seems like these guys got the order to kill everyone who knows about this thing. If Romulus was anxious to this degree then it only means that this emblem could lead to his abdication.” Helena said while grinning.**Bang!!!**Another thunderous roar of gunfire resounds, but this time, Helena's face is solemn as she tries to conjure all of her power to try to stop the bullet that is coming toward her.“Shit! It’s the APU (Anti Power User) bullet!”Helena shouts in panic after knowing that her
Helena looked at that commander coldly, if this were her 2 or 3 years ago before she lost her daughter to the cultist that had some connection to the Emperor. She might have let them go with a slap on the wrist but… too bad.“Oh my, Didn’t I just get fired by your beloved Emperor? Why are you calling me director now?” Helena ask with a sarcastic tone as she emphasize the word “Beloved Emperor”Helena's delicate hand raised up as her power began to gather around her body, and unnatural pressure began to encroach at the head of all the strike teams that were surrounding the house. Even more than 1000 people in the support and reinforcement team that are far away from here are not escaped from the range of this power.“No…. no… please… Please don’t do this…” The commander begin to beg as fear and terror were clearly displayed on his distorted face. He knows what’s going to happen to him and all the people here if he fails to beg this demoness in front of him.Helena slowly increases her
“Where’s Adrian? Isn’t he always with you?” Aurelia asks.After returning to this world, Yun Xi began searching for Adrian's father and found out that he thought he had lost his only son. He commits suicide in hope that he will meet his son again in the afterlife.This is tragic but Yun Xi didn’t blame Adrian's father either. She knew the feeling of despair well even if her reasons for despair are vastly different from Adrian's fatherSo she decided to adopt Adrian as her son and took care of him from then on.“Oh! He’s in school.” Yun Xi answered and then decided to return to the business at hand.“Anyway, How can I help you? Miss Liu.” Yun Xi asks.Liu Xiling looked around the lobby cautiously.Seeing Liu Xiling's behavior, Yun Xi immediately knew that something must have happened to them. Yun Xi's face grew serious. To think that there’s something in this world is able to make Miss Liu cautious like this, maybe this world's water was deeper than she thought. Yun Xi thinks to hersel
— 1 Day before the sacrifice —In the middle of the desert, A figure of a man walks lonely without anything supporting him. Whether it's a vehicle or a camel. Other than a ragged cloak and duster on his body, there’s no other thing that seems to be the bag, package, or necessity that use to prolong one’s life in the desert.Strangely even this hot temperature could burn down an average man to the point of exhaustion. This man never shows signs of fatigue nor any sign of sweat from his clothes under the punishment of the sun.The man was of course Zhu Wushang who slowly walked in the desert while literally trying his luck to find the Black Pyramid.His armored jeep got destroyed by a large sand storm on the third day he was driving in the desert. Zhu Wushang didn’t find any pyramid because he only knew the general direction of the black pyramid, not the exact location.“Ugh… If this goes on, I’m afraid that It’ll take years to find the Black Pyramid, and somehow… I felt like I’m travel
A drop of red blood fell down through the hole toward its destination. The mouth of a dried-up mummified corpse within the sarcophagus.Once the blood touches the corpse's dried tongue. The great power that contains within the blood works its magic. The black mass of darkness and the power from an indescribable source within the blood descend into the golden sarcophagus. It begins to transform the dried-up bark-like skin of corpse, invigorating them, and returning its life.The pressure of unknown energy shakes the pyramid as if it's going to collapse at any moment. Humm and rumbling sound of both unknown power and the shaking of the pyramid mic together. As if something extremely powerful is going to be released from the depth of the abyss, answering the daredevil who dares to unleash them.The golden sarcophagus suddenly opens with an extreme force that pushes it from the inside. The black-red mass-like mist quickly descended into the sarcophagus at the same time as the spiritual bo
A gigantic eye slowly opens its lid at the black hole at the center of the black space not so far away from Zhu Wushang as if the black hole were a massive creature that is observing countless events from the dimension distortion.The gigantic eye is looking straight at Zhu Wushang who is also staring back at it without any fear or hesitation. The massive stream of knowledge about the creation of all things and the destruction of all creations heavily crashed into Zhu Wushang's mind like a massive waterfall crashing into the rock below. Usually, this massive amount of information and the hard-to-comprehend content comes crashing into the human mind, not even if it’s the mind of a god. Their mind would be shattered followed by their soul that will be dissipated by this massive amount of knowledge.But not only Zhu Wushang's mind remains firm under the onslaught of these crashing waves of massive knowledge like a solid rock. It starts to greedily gobble up all of this knowledge like a
The Black Merchant in a ragged brown duster coat walked in a while whistling from outside of the pyramid, his hand was full of grocery bags like he just came back from the grocery store. Then he felt like something was amiss so he quickly ran to the main hall and saw the carcass of a giant black cocoon.“He’s finally awake!? but why am I still?” The Black Merchant checked himself as he checked his hand and body to see if there was anything abnormal.“Or is he still not fully awakened?” He uttered after he had found out that everything is normal.The Black Merchant tried to use his senses to detect if Zhu Wushang was around but nothing positive turned up. He thought that maybe Zhu Wushang had gone somewhere or been around here but the dark pyramid material resisted any probing from other sources that’s why he couldn't detect him.Unknown to the Black Merchant, Zhu Wushang was just a bit further away from him standing butt naked behind the cocoon carcass. What made the Black Merchant un
