Everyone turned silent upon hearing his words.
King frowned, "That person you mentioned right now... who is he or she?"
Pride crystal gulped down saliva, "I know, but I shouldn't tell! Because it would then make us all once again get reset with our memories erased!"
King pondered, "So what's the plan? We just stay idle and wait till people regain their memories themselves!"
Pride crystal grinned, "Nope, we're going to wait till Lucan and Lord regain their memories! Then my plan will begin, hehehe!"
His cold laughter gave chills to every single one of them present because nobody expected Pride crystal to have such a personality.
He spoke, "But... there are a few friends who are entrapped by fate! We're going to bring them with us."
The whole place started to produce whispers and lots of muttering.
Blue guy asked, "Should we really go there? Uhm... just asking!"
Pride crystal frowned, "Did you all think I have brought you here to chill and relax yourselves? Idiots, don't you want to help your loved ones and move to the next stage?"
After remembering their true purpose, all of them were fired up.
Leader slime smiled bitterly, "Our actions will be too dangerous and life-threatening, right? I am afraid of all those horrors we're going to face!"
King grinned and ran ahead. He laughed, "Aren't we all dead? So why are you all afraid of death? If we die, it's simple—we will just go where we came from.
There's nothing to lose for us, but for that mysterious person mentioned by Pride crystal...
He or she will lose everything! Their reset, their entertainment, hahaha! There's nothing stronger than a person who has nothing to lose...
And nothing weaker than a person who has everything to lose! Fire up!"
All those who were earlier trembling with fear started to laugh crazily.
As if they had gone insane, people started to chorus:
"KING! KING! KING!"
King swayed his hair and gave a cold smirk, "I am destiny's heavenly king! Subjects, don't worry! With this king leading you,
I guarantee that we have a 0% chance of facing defeat!"
People roared in unison:
"DESTINY'S HEAVENLY KING! DESTINED RULER! THE HEAVENLY LEADER!"
King gave a mocking stare at Pride crystal, "This is true charisma! Hahaha, Pride crystal, it seems like your pride's not even dust compared to mine."
He shifted his gaze to Pride crystal, who was surprisingly grinning at him!
It gave him goosebumps as he thought, "This... this guy... what's he even up to? Damn!"
A portal opened as a figure walked in; his eyes were burning with flames of passion and brilliance.
He had bulk muscles and a deadly aura... the whole atmosphere changed.
Even Pride crystal was stunned to see such a massive aura.
King's hands waved in the air as cosmic energy surged throughout them! He created a sword by churning it through.
All of them took a fighting stance. King ran towards the person and slashed through his body,
appearing on the other side! Blood sprayed across the entire place.
Everyone started to cheer, "King! King! Ki—"
Pride crystal interrupted, "No, fools! Look at it closely, the blood is..."
The blood was a dark red color. At first glance, nobody understood anything.
But then Blue guy said, "This is King's blood! He is a species with a much closer affinity towards humans...
Which means!"
King's sword was shattered into multiple small fragments...
It eventually disappeared into dust, mixing back with the cosmic energy itself where it came from.
King was grunting in pain, "Who... are you? Damn it!"
Leader slime frowned, "King! I thought you were the strongest among us..."
Pride crystal chuckled as he said, "It's true that he's the strongest among all of you! It's just that his opponent was even stronger...
Hehe, let me guess, Fate guy?"
A person smirked, "Pride crystal... long time no see!"
King's eyes stared wide open, refusing to believe what he just saw, "No... it's impossible! Fate guy's a weakling, he just stays beside Lucan
and hides behind him to survive! How can someone like him be this strong..."
Another figure appeared beside him; he was like a crystal, in a black color.
It was Child guy.
He sighed, "Fate guy... you needn't flex your skills... you should have just appeared more casual."
Fate guy spoke, "All of you here... if I tell you that the entire cosmos is actually not using the cosmic energy properly...
will you believe me? Huh?"
Blue guy smirked, "You're delusional if you think so, old man! How come you are so young and lively?
Hello there."
Fate guy glared at him, "Blue guy... is that you? Friend! Hi, how have you been? Sup! You used to be part of the crew, man!
Hahaha."
Seeing this, Blue guy replied, "You really are Fate guy! I don't trust you yet... tell me something only we know about!"
Fate guy said, "Remember that day when I crashed down the spaceship into the star, almost killing all of us?
Hehe, forgive me!"
He widened his arms and was ready to receive a friendly hug...
Instead, Blue guy straight up kicked him in the face and started to punch him severely.
Fate guy was caught off guard and fell down, "Hey! What the f—"
Blue guy punched him till he bled, "You! What did we all do to you? Just because we left your crew, you killed us all! Joining with that naive kid! That asshole!"
Fate guy's voice disappeared as he grabbed Blue guy by the neck and strangled him, "You... can speak anything about me... not about him.
Or else!"
Blue guy's face turned pale as he was about to be killed.
Suddenly, a figure floated in the air,
releasing a purple halo that no one could resist! It was Pride crystal.
His aura was immeasurable; everybody was forced to stay on the ground under that heavy pressure.
Even Fate guy was no exception.
His voice echoed throughout, "Well... well... it would be nice if all of you shut up! I am done with you all.
King, I'm the king here! Your name might have 'King' in it, but I'm the boss! Understood?"
King nodded in agreement, "Yes, boss!"
Next, he continued, "Fate guy! Just because you have learned something new doesn't mean you are super cool.
So stay silent and listen to me!"
Only two people were left untouched: Time crystal and Child guy.
Time crystal gasped, "You're at the pinnacle of power! It's as much as Fate crystal's power scaling! Wow!"
Child guy laughed, "Thank you, Pride! I have warned that kiddo! Well, you see, all these newer-generation kids are forgetting about the older generations like us."
Pride crystal nodded, "Yeah, they have to be taught a lesson, right? Hehe, what do you say?"
All three of them exchanged gazes as they smirked at the same time.
All of them down there were smiling bitterly...
They cursed:
"Ugh! King and Fate guy, because of you two, even we are going through this shit! Dammit, you both."
"King! You are all bluff; you are a dog that barks and doesn't bite."
Fate guy gave a mocking expression to King, even while down there.
King frowned, but he eased up as he heard the following words:
"FATE GUY! YOU BASTARD, SMILING LIKE THAT WHEN YOU LOST YOUR AURA! L FATE GUY!"
"BRO TRIED FARMING AURA, BUT IS IN A GENERATIONAL AURA DEBT!"
Soon, he also started frowning.
During all of this commotion, the ceiling collapsed, and there was a white, dazzling figure.
He had an evil grin upon his face, "Oh, hide-and-seek! Hehe, playing without me? Let me join you all!"
He was a white crystal who shone with a star-like white brilliance! Everyone was forced to shut their eyes upon gazing at him.
Soon, people started to scream in fear!
"LIFE CRYSTAL! OH HEAVENS, HE'S FOUND US! PRIDE CRYSTAL, DO SOMETHING!"
Pride crystal paled at this sight, "I am no match for a post-war Life crystal myself..."
Child guy gulped down saliva, "WHAT! I THOUGHT YOU WERE LIKE A GOD OR SOMETHING..."
He smiled bitterly, "Me? Huh, nice joke! But bad timing..."
