Sitting cross-legged in the tidied secret room.
Sebastian closed his eyes and gradually followed the guidance of magic, opening a door in the reverse direction along the passage connecting himself to the Crimson Dinsion. Finally, when Sebastian opened his eyes again, he successfully arrived in the legendary Crimson Dinsion with his consciousness!
This is a world with only three colors besides red: black, gray and white. Everything here belongs to a single ruler, the master of this dinsion, Cyttorak!
Sebastian's consciousness walked in the Crimson Dinsion.
After absorbing the residual soul of Zarathos and possessing the authority of the Hell Dinsion, Sebastian was actually no longer a pure human being. In terms of level, he had reached the level of a god. If he went to Hell, he could imdiately divide the land in Hell and rule it, becoming a proper Lord of Hell.
Naturally, with this level of consciousness, Sebastian could move freely in the Crimson Dinsion that ordinary people could not reach.
Before Sebastian could wander the Crimson Dinsion for long, he noticed the space around him constantly compressing. While he remained motionless, the space around him accelerated dramatically.
When space stopped and the surroundings returned to normal, Sebastian found himself within a temple constructed of massive crimson and black rocks. Before him sat a giant of imnse size on an enormity-filled throne. He was clad in carapace-like armor, his face noseless, with a vast, toothy mouth and a pair of tiny, dark eyes. He was the ruler of the Crimson Dinsion.
The Crimson Lord—Cyttorak!
While Sebastian and Cyttorak were now equal in rank, within the Crimson Dinsion, Cyttorak's strength could easily defeat one or two hundred Sebastians. He was a ruthless figure whom even Dormammu and phisto would not dare provoke, so naturally, Sebastian would not pretend to be so arrogant in front of him.
Thinking back to how he had once considered Cyttorak to be similar to Dormammu and phisto, Sebastian felt incredibly naive.
Seeing Cyttorak before him, Sebastian bowed slightly and spoke respectfully, "Great Crimson Lord Cyttorak, Earth Mage Sebastian Shaw greets you."
"Earth Mage... you do not look like an Earth Mage."
The perspective of beings like Cyttorak differed from that of ordinary humans. In Cyttorak's eyes, Sebastian was no longer a human mage.
Human mages, in Cyttorak's eyes, were like ethereal, starlit bodies. Perhaps each mage's power varied, and the magnitude of the starlight they emitted varied. But Sebastian was completely different.
In Cyttorak's eyes, Sebastian was like a cloud of hellfire radiating powerful gravitational waves. Within it lay a human body radiating a mysterious aura and the mysteries of the universe, a level beyond human reach.
Sebastian understood Cyttorak's words, so he simply nodded and said to Cyttorak, "No matter what achievents you achieve, no matter what level of power you reach, once human, always human. This will never change."
Cyttorak grinned slightly at Sebastian's words and said, "Human, I admire you, but I wonder why you have co here? At your current level, I can no longer easily grant you power."
"Great Cyttorak, I co here to seek your aid. I intend to start a war, a war the likes of which has been unseen in the universe for millennia. I may need your assistance, so I co to seek your aid!"
"War..." A hint of interest appeared in Cyttorak's eyes, and he slowly spoke, "The fact that you can say this ans you already know my other identity besides that of the Lord of the Crimson Dinsion, right?"
Sebastian nodded slowly, acknowledging this.
In fact, Cyttorak certainly possessed another identity besides that of the Lord of the Crimson Dinsion.
Otherwise, how could Cyttorak, a powerful Lord of the sa dinsion, possess the power to crush Dormammu and phisto? It is because, besides being Lord of the Dinsion, he possesses another identity, one that allows him to surpass all other Lords of the Dinsion: the Elder God of War!
The wielder of complete authority over war!
This is why Cyttorak so longs to witness war, so eager to grant power to other beings, to watch them engage in strife and battle.
He enjoys war, and it also increases his power. Although this increase in power is so minimal that it can be ignored, in Cyttorak's heart, a grand war is still a show he craves. He is willing to exert a certain amount of strength to achieve it, even taking action himself, without hesitation. The only prerequisite is that the war be of a magnitude sufficient to satisfy Cyttorak!
"Tell ! Human, what is the scale of your war? Is it so worthy of to take action myself!"
"Forgive for not being able to tell you now, but that is a war that will definitely satisfy you, and you can even savor it for a long ti. If you are not satisfied when the war starts, then you do not have to take action, and I will bear the consequences!"
After taking a deep look at Sebastian, Cyttorak nodded slowly and said, "Interesting, very interesting. I like war, this is a fact, so I am not stingy with rewards and help for anyone who brings a good war!
I will give you a mark of my own. As long as you think the ti is right, you can crush it. At that ti, I will give you so help based on how satisfied I am with the war.
If that war is really enough to satisfy , then even taking action myself is not sothing that is completely impossible!"
As soon as the words fell, the power of the Crimson Dinsion gathered in front of Sebastian, turning into a black stone seal with crimson runes.
Sebastian took the seal and held it in his hand before bowing to Cyttorak again and saying, "In that case, I will take my leave. I will bring you a war of sufficient magnitude, so please wait and see!"
"I look forward to it!"
After saying this, Cyttorak waved his hand again, and Sebastian's consciousness instantly disappeared from the Crimson Dinsion and returned to his body.
Opening his eyes, Sebastian looked at the black and red mark on his hand, put the thing away safely, and exhaled.
After a journey of a thousand miles, I finally took an important step. I need to be extrely careful with every step that follows, otherwise everything will inevitably collapse. At that ti, all my previous efforts will be aningless!
Author's Note: Sebastian has secured Cyttorak's support! But what war could possibly satisfy an Elder God? One piece is in place - now for Galactus...
