Chapter 554 - Fateful Encounter (2/2)
Unfortunately for Daniel, the hatred towards what the Overlord disrespectfully referred to as the 'Spawn of Destiny' was a feeling shared throughout the entirety of the multiverse, and justified by the primary domain of Fate Whenever a universe touched by Destiny was found, the champions that were born within were obliterated in order to ensure they would not grow beyond control
Al about those times, the Overlord turned to look at the crowd, and said, ”Without being certain when the Murderous God died, or which domain took control over that universe once it was opened, we are left with only one alternative” His tone was grim, and despite his already naturally dark facial features, Daniel could gather that even he disliked this ”alternative”
As he finished speaking, one of the chaht between his doently waved his hand to conjure a portal
Compared to the murky portals created by the champions of Horror, this portal was co froht size, this portal was created froh the separation of the upper and lower part The borders of this portal were uneven, and once fully opened, it made the portal look like a city's skyline mirrored in the sky, or an opened mouth full of crooked teeth
The power contained in this portal was evenor overbearing There was no hostility towards any of the other aspects of existence, alhtful, and beloved ruler had stepped down its throne, to stand in the middle of their subjects
The only person who felt a hint of adversity towards this poas Daniel, who, contrary to every other observing champion, could feel both a familiarity and hostility within it
Once fully opened, two people eed from the portal
The first of these two people was a strikingly attractive youngpitch black hair, porcelain skin, and delicate features Dressed in a white taoist robe with a black dragon pattern sewn into it, he stood proudly in front of the crowd of cha man's extremely wide sleeves, which hid his arht, where the second person was standing
The second person, chained by her hands and feet to what Daniel could gather was her jailor, was a young woreen hair that reached all the way to her lower back, long and pointy ears, an extremely pale complexion, and more impressively, eyes that shone like a rainbow colored crystal Her delicate facial features were still visible despite her saddened expression, which indicated that she was not happy to be there
What these two people provoked in the observing cha ust towards the young wonized as a child of Iewah
A lulued to the ethereal figure of the young wo the power of Karma and use the conize a peer chanized one too
”WE GREET THE CHAMPION OF FATE” Chanted the entire crowd in unison
As cold as stone, the cha Instead, he turned to look at Daniel who, contrary to the others, had shown no respect towards hi at his fewoman's attention
Horrified by the disapproval of the chaetically, then added, ”This right here is the first champion of Karma, and he knows little of our hierarchy I faultproperly before your arrival” As he finished speaking, the Overlord turned towards Daniel and, while lacking the courtesy he had shohen speaking to him before, said, ”His Eminence is a champion of Lord Fate, an o respectful to hi woon his mind at the moment, especially since he was in the presence of one of the few people who could call him out on his lies However, he did not panic His lips slowly curved into a polite sreet us before we greet him?”
For the second time, the hall fell into a silence unbroken by even the sound of breathing, as nobody dared to However, this ti e cultivators Thecultivators was the Overlord himself, whose horrid face was distorted into an indescribable expression
”YOU DARE MISBEHAVE DESPITE KNOWING WHO I AM?!” Barked the youngtwo steps towards Daniel The chain he held tensed as he walked further fro woman he was connected to
Daniel tilted his head in feigned confusion, then rested it onto his closed fist He then said, ”Correctbut fate is an omnipotent yet passive concept of existence Should you be using your Master's name to threaten people? And even if you do choose to do so, ill you do? Read ?”
As so cultivator had lived the entirety of his extre life with people orshi+pped the very air he breathed out Disgust was the least negative feeling he was forced to endure when tasked with interacting with the other doreement and hostility could not exist In his mind, he was above everybody else, and as such, others needed to act accordingly Yet, this stranger had spit on the very honor that had symbolized the entirety of his existence
Too shocked to even speak, the champions of Fate looked at Daniel with eyes full of hatred, and froave out his sanity to leap towards hientle yet short burst of laughter suddenly broke the silence It ca woman, whose upper body was bent forward in an attempt to reach for her chained hands with herof s man turned to look at his cohtened around the chain he was holding, but right before he could say anything, the young woht posture ”Young master, if you will lose your composure in front of all these people, ill respect you in the future?” She said with a silvery and le sentence seeht to the core

With a heavy sigh, the young ained his composure ”Since you are the first chao, this tiht after turning to look at Daniel He then turned around, and walked back towards his original position, but not before tightening the grip around the chain he was holding and pulling it with enough strength for the chained young woround
