North Galaxy, sowhere on a distant planet.
"To think I’d get another chance to return to the living world after dying. Looks like luck is still on my side."
Sidarco inhaled deeply, greedily savoring the air of the mortal world.
Beside him, Hawkeamps stood silently.
Sidarco narrowed his eyes coldly.
"Grow stronger as quickly as possible. Then we’ll go settle the score with that brat."
At the ntion of Caelum, Hawkeamps imdiately revealed an excited grin, unable to hide his instinctive love for battle.
"Understood."
"Though I don’t know who exactly you’re talking about, I might be able to handle that for you."
A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them.
Sidarco froze.
Then he spun around sharply, his expression changing instantly.
Standing before him was another Sidarco.
An identical one.
Beside that man stood another Hawkeamps as well.
It looked exactly like they were staring into mirrors.
Sidarco’s eyes narrowed.
"Who are you people?"
The newly arrived Sidarco smiled faintly.
"Isn’t it obvious?"
"I am you."
"And you are ."
"We are both Sidarco."
"And they are both genuine Hawkeamps."
"Impossible."
Sidarco rejected the idea imdiately.
He refused to believe such absurd nonsense.
"Clones? Artificial humans?"
Flash!
The new Sidarco vanished and instantly appeared before him, punching straight through his chest.
Then, before Sidarco could react, his body rapidly dissolved into the newcor’s own.
"Doctor!"
Hawkeamps moved imdiately, only for the other Hawkeamps to pierce through him in the exact sa manner.
Then absorb him completely.
Boom!
The new Hawkeamps’ body swelled violently before stabilizing once again.
His aura beca even deeper and more terrifying than before.
In re monts, the original Sidarco and Hawkeamps had completely vanished.
Replaced.
And yet, just as the newcor had said, they truly were Sidarco and Hawkeamps.
"I see..."
The new Sidarco browsed through the freshly absorbed mories inside his mind.
Excitent flashed through his eyes.
"So this universe really is quite different from the others."
His grin widened.
"Now this is getting interesting."
Suddenly.
Caelum sensed an extrely powerful aura erge sowhere within the galaxy.
But it vanished almost imdiately.
By the ti he tried locking onto it, it had already disappeared completely.
The white-haired young man seed unsurprised.
"You felt it too, didn’t you?"
Caelum frowned.
"Whose aura was that?"
Even though it had only appeared for an instant, he was certain of one thing.
That power had absolutely exceeded the trillion level.
The white-haired young man did not answer imdiately.
Instead, he calmly introduced himself.
"My na is Xien."
"I am the guardian of the Omni Realm and the overseer of all twelve universes."
Everything began at the dawn of creation itself.
Back then, the universes did not yet exist.
The first thing born was the Omni Realm.
Afterward, twelve universes were created within it.
Xien had been born alongside them, becoming both the guardian of the Omni Realm and the administrator responsible for maintaining all twelve universes.
Born a god from the very beginning, Xien’s duty was to preserve balance across the Omni Realm and ensure the normal operation of every universe.
Any factor threatening that balance had to be eliminated.
For countless ages, the Omni Realm had remained peaceful.
The balance of the twelve universes had never once been broken.
Until recently.
A man nad Sidarco appeared in Universe Three.
He created a super artificial human nad Hawkeamps.
Hawkeamps possessed limitless growth potential.
Before Xien could even react, the Hawkeamps of Universe Three had already evolved into sothing monstrously powerful.
Then, alongside Sidarco, he shattered the barriers separating universes and began invading other worlds at will.
They destroyed everything in their path, throwing multiple universes into complete chaos.
Worse still, Hawkeamps continued evolving nonstop.
He had already grown powerful enough that even Xien himself could no longer oppose him directly.
And the situation grew even worse.
Because Sidarco kept breaking open the barriers between universes, unimaginable amounts of evil energy from every universe had begun gathering together within the Omni Realm itself.
If this continued, even Xien could not predict what kind of monster that concentration of evil might eventually create.
In the worst-case scenario, the entire Omni Realm along with all twelve universes could be destroyed together.
That was an outco Xien absolutely could not allow.
"I thought everything was already beyond saving."
Xien looked directly at Caelum.
"But unexpectedly, soone like you appeared in Universe Seven."
"That ans there may still be hope."
By Xien’s standards, Caelum was not particularly evil.
At the very least, he did not mindlessly destroy planets for no reason.
Whenever he planted the Spirit Tree on a life-bearing planet, he ultimately destroyed the remaining fruit afterward and returned most of the planet’s life force.
Sidarco and Hawkeamps were completely different.
Those two embodied pure destruction.
They devastated everything simply because they wanted to.
And they never left anything behind.
Of course, Caelum still represented a massive potential threat.
That much was undeniable.
But compared to Sidarco and Hawkeamps, Xien believed the greater danger clearly ca first.
If those two weren’t stopped soon, the evil gathering within the Omni Realm could eventually produce sothing catastrophic.
Caelum finally understood.
"You want to eliminate the Sidarco and Hawkeamps who entered this universe?"
"Exactly."
Xien lowered his head sincerely.
"If you’re willing to help destroy them, then anything within my power is yours."
"Before that, I have a question."
"What is it?"
Caelum looked genuinely curious.
"Do alternate versions of exist in the other universes too?"
Xien imdiately shook his head.
"The twelve universes share similarities, but they are not identical."
"Honestly, I wish there were more versions of you."
"If that had been the case, the Sidarco of Universe Three would never have been allowed to grow this far."
In other words.
The Caelum of Universe Seven was unique.
Returning to the matter at hand, Caelum had no objection to helping.
In fact, he was more than interested.
Even if Xien had never asked, Caelum still would have hunted down Hawkeamps the mont he learned about him.
So that was the reason defeating Zorvak hadn’t ended the ga.
There were still stronger opponents waiting.
"Helping you isn’t a problem."
Caelum smiled faintly.
"But before I fight Hawkeamps..."
"I want to see your strength first."
Xien looked slightly surprised.
He hadn’t expected such a simple condition.
"Of course."
"No problem at all."
