Chapter 296 296: The first Creation
"How do you have access to the $%^&!@#??"
She said, once again muttering some inherent words.
"What are these crazy shits yapping? Access? Access to what?"
Closing his eyes for a second, he forcibly calmed down. Looking at the bald man, he suddenly understood.
Looking at the beings above, Rahu suddenly stopped, his eyes shone curiously. He turned towards the last being.
"Why are you being so salty? Did I fuck your wife or something?"
He spoke. The moment he spoke, there was pin-drop silence in the hall before…
"Pff! Hahaha!!!!"
A loud laughter echoed! It was a melodious one; her mere voice shook the entire hall. It was a being sitting on the right side of the central being.
But the rest weren't so amused.
"Mortal…you were already guilty of various crimes. Mastering a law in the mortal realm, taking billions of souls from the underworld, combining death and…!@#&^$ and lastly…insulting a @#$#."
The being Rahu spoke to suddenly smiled, his words immediately enlightened Rahu.
"Ah, they were indeed talking about combining my death law and Dimensional Energy. Hmm, well, there is nothing I could do now, besides…"
Looking up at the being, his smile stretched wide.
"It was indeed as I had guessed, it seems in this place…you can't attack me."
Saying that…he slowly stood up! Yes, the almost touching his knees to the ground was all a farce.
The being shut up when he heard those words…he looked incredulous.
"Mortal, you don't seem to realize your situation here."
Suddenly, the being sitting in the center spoke, getting his attention.
"The beings who are summoned here have either gone against the system or broken one of the primordial laws—in your case, you outright violated one of them."
"Violated one of the primordial laws, huh…"
Rahu shook his head with a chuckle, "So? What is my punishment?"
He asked curiously, his tone wasn't something a person should have when hearing they had violated a primordial law.
"As much as I admire your composure, according to the rules. A third-degree curse will be embedded in your soul."
The being spoke…surprising Rahu.
"Curse? What curse?"
"That is something…we aren't allowed to say. But remember this, you won't be summoned here for the same crime. If you try to attempt it once more…the curse will simply multiply."
Saying that, the being waved his hand. And in the next instant…Rahu vanished.
There was silence for a few seconds…before.
"Why did you let him go?"
The being on the far right asked, and there wasn't a trace of the mocking voice he had shown earlier. Instead, he was confused.
The being sitting in the center shook lightly…as if shaking his head.
"It wasn't I that let him go…it was the orders of higher-ups."
"WHAT!? H-HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?"
The being trembled violently when he heard the words "higher-ups."
"Even I…don't know. Even with my senses…I couldn't discover anything about that man. Aside from the message I received about his crimes."
He said…surprising everyone present. Even the one who had laughed earlier.
"Should we—?"
"I suggest we do not."
Before the being sitting on the end could finish his words, the being in the center raised his hand, silencing him.
"Since the higher-ups have directly intervened…it is safe to say this matter is beyond our scope."
"Beyond even 'our' scope, huh? Heh, it's been trillions of years since I heard such words."
…
Back in the tower.
Rahu…Rahu…RAHU!!!
A voice boomed in Rahu's head as he snapped his eyes open. Looking around, he saw Yveline and Vivianne looking at him worriedly.
Looking down…he was standing.
"It seems I had blanked out while standing."
Turning towards Yveline, he couldn't help but ask.
"How much time has passed?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? You just closed your eyes for a second…then opened them a few seconds later."
"I…see"
Rahu sighed and nodded. It was a bit surprising…but not overwhelming.
THUMP THUMP THUMP!!!
Turning his head…he saw a giant stepping towards him. Rahu's eyes widened in surprise when he saw that.
There stood the largest creature he had ever seen…well, at least a humanoid one.
It had pale grey skin with nine additional heads protruding from its sides. They were honestly creepy…especially combined with the pitch-black eyes.
Rahu looked at this amusingly. "It seems…this one was successful."
Despite the earlier beings saying he had broken a law, the creature standing in front of him was living proof of that.
Yveline looked at the creature incredulously. The sheer aura of the being…was no less than the one emitted by Rahu himself.
"Come here"
Rahu spoke, eyeing the creature. Hearing this, the being looked at Rahu curiously before closing the distance.
Thud!
"Any orders for me, Master?"
He spoke; his voice was deep. It was as if multiple throats were speaking at once.
Rahu didn't answer immediately. Instead, he stepped forward and touched the creature's head.
His gaze was sharp and analytical as it swept across the creature's entire being. From the dense and corruptive flow of the death energy to the overwhelming and mysterious dimensional energy.
There wasn't the slightest trace of instability.
"Perfect"
Rahu smiled in approval, and a small grin crept onto his face.
"You can be proud, for you are my first creation."
He said, his voice was full of appreciation.
"Now…try attacking me."
With a flick of his finger, the creature was hurled back a few miles.
Stabilizing mid-air, the creature stopped.
"Is the master testing my strength?"
The creature pondered, but soon shrugged it off. Raising its hand, it made a grasping motion towards Rahu.
In an instant, the space around Rahu was completely sealed off! The space shook as a small…sphere appeared behind Rahu, attempting to erase him. But…the moment it came into contact with Rahu, it was snuffed out.
Rahu chuckled amusingly as he saw this…raising his finger, he stopped a pitch-black spear that came from his side.
"Death spear, huh? Not bad, even without a law as the base…the sheer corruptiveness is enough to kill an Ascension realm cultivator in mere seconds."
Rahu nodded, flicking the spear off. In the next second, he twisted his body and swung his elbow behind…breaking the space.
