Death… And Me

Chapter 2802: The Legends

Flavio breathed coldly. "So one of these Dormant Living Soul Devils ended up in this Universe, uh? That explains how it suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield. The Lisan Universe experts probably had it in their hands."

"Unfortunately for them, they have a limitation," Kaberta explained. "Living Soul Devils can only at most reach a similar level to a Semi-Celesital. They can never enter the Celestial realm, let alone go above it. That said, all the Living Soul Devils that destroyed their Universes were eventually killed by Celestial Realm experts when they appeared near other Universes."

Flavio sighed. "Then it was truly a shame we killed it. But then again, it was killed by a Semi- Celestial from our forces. If we retreated and ignored it, the Semi-Celestials of Lisan would probably get rid of it since they were all there."

"That\'s also a possibility," Kaberta understood that. "Anyway, I will arrange another ten R Class Spaceships and fill them to the brim with cultivators to make up for your losses. Although your army won\'t be as strong as it was initially, it should be more than enough, considering the losses Lisan Universe also took. Do not disappoint me next time. Otherwise, I will send someone else to take your place."

"Understood." Flavio quickly accepted it. "I will not fail again."

The connection with the Garisan Headquarters was then finalized, allowing Flavio to sit again.

On his side, Yatabu was too curious and had to ask. "Sir, what is this Werdlem you talked about?"

Flavio glanced at him before closing his eyes for a moment. "Little is known about Werdlem. However, it was once the most powerful Empire known in the Great Void. Some even say they figured out a way to create Celestial Realm experts on demand, although I find it hard to believe. Nonetheless, no one questioned that the powers that exist today wouldn\'t be able to hold a candle to Werdlem, even if they all joined hands."

The Semi-Celestials in the room were shocked to hear that such a powerful force truly existed. "Still, this invincible hegemon suddenly collapsed. The Universes it commanded were all destroyed in a span of a single day. Pretty much all lives from those Universes were lost. It is hard to tell what happened because the Werdlem Empire was very closed. It barely kept any contact with any other forces from the outside. The only moment they ever came out was when they needed to conquer a new Universe for themselves."

"I don\'t know if it is true, but it is said that Werdlem never took more than a single week to completely subdue and close off any new Universe that fell in their hands. I only read some records in our Garisan Empire archives and never really got in contact with anything related to them."

"Yet, this same Werdlem Empire left behind many treasures and ancient technology capable of moving various powers of the Great Void into all-out wars to acquire them. I didn\'t know about the Living Soul Devils until a moment ago, but hearing they were a creation from Werdlem, everything makes sense now. This backyard Universe just got lucky enough to bump into one of them, and they used it against our army."

"I wonder how our Garisan Empire would fare against such a force..." Yanabu commented.

"Hmph!" Flavio looked at him like he was looking at an idiot. "Fare against them? What a joke! If the legends are true, the best we could do was to run, run as fast and as far as possible."

Dingan, the other Semi-Celestial, narrowed his eyes. "Then... those treasures the Angels and Devils have in the Underworld and Heavens..."

Flavio nodded his head. "Their treasures do indeed seem something a legend like Werdlem could create." Flavio knew more about the Underworld Relic and the Heavens Gyroscope, though. Or, to be more specific, he knew some things related to similar treasures from other places. It\'s just that Flavio didn\'t want to talk about it. That\'s because such treasures were usually in the hands of those he called \'Freaks\' back when he talked to Gragatou, Soul Gem, and Kafan.

Flavio then got up and prepared to leave. "Keep the investigations going in the Lisan Universe. It will probably take another five or so years until Lady Kaberta can gather the extra experts at such a short call and send them here. We will not underestimate Lisan anymore."

"Yes, sir!" Everyone on the bridge accepted the orders.

Back in Lisan Universe, Rean and Roan appeared outside of a Spatial Gate. The Spatial Gate closed behind the two, but they didn\'t seem to care. All their attention was on a ridiculously enormous head far in the distance. A head with a size of countless kilometers. Naturally, the twins were looking at Hyeoumu\'s head.

Naturally, Hyeoumu noticed when the twins appeared with his Divine Sense. "I already told you all that I do not need anyone\'s help. No, wait..." He quickly remembered the twins. "It\'s the Soul Gem\'s two brats. What do you want?"

Rean quickly showed respectful behavior and began to speak. "We are sorry for bothering you during your time healing from your injuries, senior Hyeoumu. Roan and I came here with a request regarding the fixing of the Universe\'s Foundation Pillar."

Back then, Soul Gem told Hyeoumu the twins were their best chance to repair the Universe, so he was aware of many things. "I will not intervene. Did you forget?"

Rean nodded. "Yes, we know it. However, senior doesn\'t need to come out of here to help us. What we need you already have with you. Senior, we would like to have three of the Foreign Universe Foundation Fragments you acquired when you ate the Spaceships from Garisan."
