’Saved by the bell,’ I thought to myself as Jill shot one long, dangerous look before reluctantly turning away to open the lab door and check whatever catastrophe Kella was panicking about.
The mont the isolation array weakened, distant tremors, alarm sirens, and chaotic shouts from outside imdiately flooded into the laboratory. Even the floor beneath us vibrated faintly.
anwhile, my grimoire inbox kept ringing nonstop with incoming ssages from Cortney.
Since she was supposed to be watching over the emotionally unstable Bloodette and Petra, whose intentions were still not certain, a bad feeling instantly rose in my chest. I imdiately opened the ssages.
And the more I read, the darker my expression beca, irritably wondering, ’So much happened, and she only thought of warning once the entire city was about to collapse?’
I was genuinely annoyed.
Ocean Supre Aqualas had apparently appeared personally, yet Cortney hadn’t contacted imdiately. Instead, she waited until the situation escalated into two Supre Beings fighting directly underneath my city.
At that point, ’problem’ was putting it mildly. What annoyed even more was that Cortney’s ssages were an absolute ss.
One mont she was talking about the Mountain God and Ocean God. Then suddenly she was rambling about Bloodette betraying them, ancient wars, the founding of the Five Regions, and promises powerful enough to stop oceans from swallowing five regions.
The texts jumped between panic, history lessons, emotional comntary, and disaster reports so chaotically that reading them felt like trying to assemble a puzzle during an earthquake.
Still, one thing was clear. The situation beneath the city had spiraled completely out of control. Without wasting another second, I decided to head directly to Cortney myself.
The mont I stepped out of the laboratory, I imdiately felt it. The entire city was trembling crazily. The tremors were too large and violent. It was already a miracle that none of the infrastructure in the city had collapsed so far.
The ground beneath Sky Blossom City groaned under terrifying pressure while countless overlapping energy fluctuations surged through the underground like raging storms. Buildings creaked, alarms blared across the city, and civilians flooded the streets in panic as formation barriers flickered overhead.
And worst of all, the disturbance was still escalating. My expression darkened instantly. Things were far worse than I had assud from Cortney’s chaotic ssages. If I didn’t stop those two soon, they were genuinely going to bury millions of people alive beneath the city over so ancient emotional dispute stretching back several millennia.
Without hesitation, I had all my primordial spirits swallow their ruler-class curses. The curses erupted inside my mutated soul and body like a flood of poison and madness, but I forcefully suppressed them from morphing to my unleashed form. My aura exploded outward while my Thousand Curse Incarnation Form activated.
At the sa ti, I entered one with the world state and borrowed as much celestial power from the Card World as my body could withstand. The entire Sky Blossom City instantly darkened with a crimson shade as I summoned my double domain.
"Limitless Celestial Blood Fate Domain."
BOOOOOOM!
An overwhelming celestial pressure descended upon the entire city. Space encompassing the Sky Blossom City began to stretch infinity. I expanded my domain in every direction, enveloping not only the city itself but also the countless underground layers beneath it.
Within monts, I located the two Supre Beings fighting below. Then, before either of them could properly react, I forcefully dragged both Aqualas and Petra into my double Celestial Domain while they were distracted fighting each other.
And the mont I fully perceived what they were doing underground my thoughts blanked for a second...
’What the absolute fuck are these two idiots doing?’
Petra was desperately trying to keep the city from collapsing into the ground. Entire underground layers were shifting under her control as she reinforced support structures, sealed fractures, and redirected shockwaves away from populated districts.
anwhile, Aqualas, despite having countless opportunities to seriously injure or even kill Petra, wasn’t actually trying to do either.
Instead, she was darting around the underground layers making Petra’s job as difficult as possible. Every ti Petra stabilized one section of the city’s foundations, Aqualas would destabilize another. Whenever Petra reinforced underground support layers, Aqualas would weaken the surrounding terrain or trigger more underground steam detonations nearby.
It looked less like a life-or-death battle and more like so deranged version of real-life Jenga.
Petra was holding up the city while Aqualas continuously poked and annoyed her, trying to make her lose focus and drop everything.
Which made the situation even more absurd.
From Cortney’s ssages, I had expected so ancient blood feud between Supre Beings trying to murder each other. Instead, what I found was two emotionally unstable disasters playing around beneath a city containing millions of innocent people.
And sohow, that pissed off even more.
The mont they entered my domain, I acted instantly.
My infinitely stretching space expanded between them, forcibly separating Aqualas and Petra from each other as well as from the underground layers beneath the city. Distances distorted endlessly inside the domain, making it impossible for either of them to directly interfere with the city anymore.
Then I descended toward the damaged underground foundations and unleashed celestial force throughout the fractured terrain. Layer by layer, I stabilized the city’s underground structure: collapsed support veins reford, fractured tectonic layers compressed back together, destabilized formations regained balance.
The violent tremors shaking Sky Blossom City gradually subsided as the underground foundation returned to stability under the suppression of my Celestial Domain.
Only after ensuring the city was safe did I begin shrinking the domain’s active range, minimizing its presence around the populated areas so the majority of civilians could continue their daily lives with minimal disruption.
To most ordinary citizens, this entire near-apocalyptic disaster would eventually feel like nothing more than an unusually severe landquake.
