You cannot pay the price!
You cannot pay the price!
[When such a Trait even exceeding the bounds of the highest OMEGA Tier randomly appeared on a being as my essence was forced to initiate it, I set the requirements for the holder to play a central role in this Galaxy in order to bring it to completion. I will consider your successfully saving us now to be a central role and complete this Trait for you after.]
Noah's eyes shone as he heard this, nodding as he proceeded with careful words.
"You...can't just unlock it for me right now? I'm sure the abilities of the last stage will give me even more guarantee of saving all of us."
[...It is impossible to unlock it unless the requirement has been met. I would need to bend the universal laws to do that, and nobody can do such a thing.]
Noah's thoughts moved rapidly as he heard these words, nearly shaking his head to tell this being that their words were somewhat wrong, and that there were ways one could bend universal laws! If they had the right treasures that is…
"Alright! I'll give it my best!"
He gave his affirmation as his clone looked up from the hidden mountain in the Central Realm that he was in, his eyes piercing far in the distance as the scene changed to the main body of Alexander who was looking at the scintillating Anastasia that was revealing her identity.
THRUMM!
Essence of gorgeous color erupted out as from three Summoning Rifts, the oppressive pressure of Middle Tier GALAXY rank Animus Pets could be felt!
They entered into the world with a grand demeanor the figured of three majestic creatures could be seen. One was a fearsome Icefrost Moon Dragon towering over 100 meters, another was a Mystical Chaos Fox that shone with an enticing luster, and the last one was yet another draconic creature- this one having a more serpentine body as the usual wings of a dragon were missing from it. This last one was a Void Rending Wyrm that held cold eyes towards the Entity in front of them.
"I am a member of the Expansive Dragon Cluster who is currently residing in this Galaxy. I know the beings in here, and I truly believe there must be a misunderstanding. I hope the Esteemed Madam can give us a chance to talk!"
While surrounded by three majestic Animus Summons in the same Realm as her, Anastasia spoke with a hint of confidence as she knew that any Entity should be knowledgeable enough of the Ancient Powers of the Dark Universe, and anyone seeing someone like her capable of summoning three powerful Animus in the GALAXY Realm would have an idea that she holds a special identity!
Especially because a majority of her summons were Dragons, where most of the Holy Children of the Expansive Dragon Cluster had a line up of pets such as this.
She waited for the surprise and dialogue of the Entity when her spread out senses shockingly found a shocking Dao converging around the fist of the Entity, her face seemingly livid after her words as her fist thundered forth with ridiculous power while she bellowed out!
"You wretched creatures!"
RUMBLE!
A fist that devoured the Vitality of the surrounding space itself thundered forth as Anastasia looked up in shock, her pets moving with alarm as resplendent skills shone off of their bodies.
They wrecked numerous barriers and shields while utilizing multiple elements, where even Anastasia herself cast a skill after she came out of her stupor!
"[Summoner's Bastion]!"
A distinct purple barrier appeared to reinforce all the other defensive skills her pets had cast, a unique energy linking Anastasia to her pets as this purple energy reflected off of their bodies and further strengthened the barrier she erected. It was then that the devouring fist hit!
BOOOOM!
Blood sputtered from the three defending Animus Summons as the barriers they erected shattered one after another, the last purple barrier barely holding on as Anastasia had a grimace on her face while looking towards the Entity in shock.
When she revealed her association, it seemed to have enraged the Entity even more as this being moved with wrath to strike forth!
"Where is the other one?! Bring that wretch to me as well!"
The bellowing voice of the Entity rang out again as Noah in the far distance was surrounded by Imperials and hiding his face, his thoughts rapidly moving as he finally acted and...merely activated a skill.
[Deus Ex Machina] :: At the most critical and important juncture as the life of the Protagonist is in peril, casting this ability will bring forth an unexpected power, being, or event that will save them from the seemingly hopeless situation. As with any skill capable of affecting universal rules, there is a 30 day cooldown after every use.
Currently, there was an unstoppable force of an Entity threatening the hoke Galaxy of Alexander and everything in it. At this juncture where the Protagonist was faced with an unstoppable power, Noah cast a skill to bring forth an unknown event or being that would save him and many others from peril!
THRUM!
Waves of shimmering blue distinctly came off of him as it didn't even seem like the skill was activated, but as Noah saw its cooldown counting down...he knew it was active. Now, all he had to do was wait.
At the shattered boundary of the Nexus Galaxy, the Entity was preparing another attack as Anastasia looked forward with eyes of cold rage. Her veil disappeared from her face as her crimson-colored beauty became apparent for all eyes to see, going forward fearlessly as her peerless voice resounded out at this moment!
"You...Stop! I am the Holy Princess of the Expansive Dragon Cluster, killing me is tantamount to offending an Ancient Power that is backed by multiple Entities! You cannot pay the price for it!"
Anastasia called forth grandly as her gaze now turned to one full of anger, the grandeur of royalty and of a being with such a high position leaking off of her dripping outward in the starry space as the bubbling gathering of essence around the Entity came to a halt.
The Entity looked towards the calamity-inducing gorgeous face of Anastasia as deep within her eyes, a sharp light filled with jealousy flashed...and it was very soon replaced with determination even as the Entity ascertained the truth of this being's words with the knowledge she held!
"Hmph! The Holy Princess that went missing years ago? So what! If you die here, nobody will be the wiser!"
THRUMM!
The essence of the Dao of Vitality resonated within the body of the Entity once more as she raised her hands forward, intent on wiping away everything about this Galaxy in front of her as the importance of the Page of Ruination was simply too high!
