315 A wave of spacetime force (1/2)
Soon the Undying Eclipse Knights would become a renowned Path of Power inside the Magi World. Their numbers may be small, but all those with the Undying Eclipse Knighthood Mark would be important figures in each organization.
His actions would anger many of the leaders inside the Magi World, but the Neo-Demon had a way to handle them, at least for the time being. As for the future, why would he care what a bunch of Rank 6 life forms, who in less than a thousand years would be nothing in his eyes?.
Of course, Zatiel did not seek to control any of the great organizations inside the Magi World. He may not care about the Soul Law Domains existences leading them, but he could not ignore the Beings of Laws behind them.
That was especially true for the trio that built the Aeternum Empire, Eye Dynasty, and the Scientia Kingdom.
Besides, the Neo-Demon Realm had all the land and resources that the Neo-Demon race would need to increase their number until reaching the trillions.
The main reason why Zatiel wanted to expand his influence in the Magi World was to establish a connection with the entities that reside in the void around this Principal World of the universe.
Zatiel turned around and saw how Zitra, Totto, Tyrus, and even Nero were looking at him with amazement.
They were used to the Neo-Demon displaying incredible battle power, so although they were impressed with the strength he displayed against Andras, that was not what shocked them.
The reason for their awe was the rune he built. He made that rune develop a real soul, a realm that normally only Beings of Laws could meddle with.
Zatiel found the expression of everyone hilarious. The only one that remained calm was Ezequiel, who just gave a small bow to the Neo-Demon when this one stared at him.
'So he chose Invictus. A superb title and one that is truly fitting for him. I thought I would have an easy time surpassing him now that our bloodlines are at the same level, but it seems I was wrong. If I relax for a moment, I am sure that his battle power will surpass me. His destiny no longer needs me to grow, and its potential could compare with the one of that man when he was young. If he can keep up this driving force, then my chances of surviving the final battle are higher.'
Zatiel's eyes narrowed when he thought about the greatest enemy he would have to face in the future, but the next moment he shook his head and threw those thoughts to the back of his mind. There is a very long time until that happens.
”I know you all have a lot of questions, but let's wait a moment. Two... no, three people are going to join us soon.” While Zatiel was speaking those words, the Rebirth Eye was releasing invisible pulses of energy.
Soon the first person appeared. It was a young man with blonde hair and was carrying a bloody black sword in his hand. His face was pale, and he was having a hard time regulating his breath.
The man was someone they all knew very well, Heinz. The Cultivator took a moment to analyze the situation around him. His eyes widened the moment he saw Zatiel and felt the immense power inside him.
The next second, the rage in Heinz's eyes disappeared, and he began to laugh.
”Hahaha. I came as fast as I could, thinking you all were in danger, when in fact everything was already fixed. I am glad to see that you have returned, brother.”
”Why did you take so long to arrive?” Zatiel was not reproaching him. The bond he had formed with Heinz was one of true brotherhood, tested in the flames of war. He would not hesitate to put his life in the hand of the Cultivator.
The reason for his question was that he knew that Heinz would come to the City of the Sun if a threat arrived. That, plus the obvious signs of battle on him, made clear he had found problems.
Heinz's eye turned cold when he heard that, and the killing intent of the world reacted to his emotions, making red lightning appear above the City of the Sun.
