Chapter 586 This Must Be An Illusion!
"Strike of Eternal Happiness!"
Kiba lowered Eclipse as the sword beam pierced through the fabric of space.
Eclipse turned transparent and disintegrated into innumerable dots of glowing light. The sword returned back to its dimension.
"Hopefully, the strike would have worked!"
Kiba prayed.
He had no idea if the strike he launched with all his powers would work, as its target was in a different region. After all, the sword beam would have lost a considerable amount of energy when it passed through spatial restrictions and emerged on the other side.
"Haah..."
After letting out a sigh, he looked at the tear in the space. At a rate visible to the naked eye, the space was stitching itself. In the span of a few seconds, the sundered sky returned back to its former glory.
"Despite being a tiny planet and existing in a galaxy of importance, Earth is very special!"
Kiba thought with a smile.
"Otherwise, Lord Xeced wouldn't have chosen Earth as the backup plan for Celestial Elysian Plane!"
Kiba recalled the scenes he witnessed when he first came in contact with Enchantia. At that time, he was only Zed... weak and powerless.
Enchantia had tried to entice him with Legacy Orbs and allowed him to glimpse the contents of a few. It included a few memories of the most outstanding scientist of Celestial Elysian Plane - Lord Xeced.
"Lord Xeced, your plan both worked and failed!"
Kiba mused while brining his eyes on the ocean. His gaze penetrated the layers of water and fell
Despite the fall they had taken, there wasn't critical damage. The barrier was destroyed, but most of the properties were intact. There was barely any loss of life.
"Well, despite the unexpected developments, everything worked!"
Kiba brought his wrist close to his face. His watch glowed, and Claudia's voice ringed out.
[[Everything has been done, sir.]]
Kiba nodded.
His mission here was to destroy, and not annihilate. With his job done, he teleported away.
...
An hour later.
Massive amounts of water splashed up as advanced robots and cranes pulled the mansion and underground floors from the ocean bed.
Most of the land around the ocean was in ruins. But for the time being, the pieces of the mansion were placed over the crater.
Hansen and Stina looked at their destroyed home with ugly expressions.
"Damnit!" Hansen was furious, but he couldn't vent on anyone.
"We can't afford to be furious now, my love!" Stina once again tried to calm him.
"I know, but...!" Hansen trailed off.
Their backup had arrived, in the form of their own subordinates and help from Dharma Chakra. But this didn't freed them from all their worries.
A man who had obscured himself with a blinding glow had attacked them.
Maybe he left due to the clash with Ksitigarbha, but they didn't know when he might return. His return didn't worry them as much as his reasons did.
Because they didn't know who he was and why he attacked them! Or even on whose instruction!
"Great Ksitigarbha had assured all help, so we don't have to worry..." Stina thought. "But he would only act when things turn really bad!"
She glanced towards the ocean, where the machines were carefully pulling a gigantic compartment. It was inscribed with biohazard warning signs ☠ ☢ ☣.
She then swept her glance at the medics. They were taking out a cryogenic chamber from the underground facilities. In it, Ashlyn was asleep.
"She will be awakening in a few hours," Stina said with a frown. "But her condition hadn't really improved, and things aren't that good for us!"
Hansen nodded gravely.
"If we fail, Great Ksitigarbha would not only withdraw support but punish us!" Hansen clenched his fists. "And with the attention this mess had brought us, we are screwed!"
Stina turned silent.
In life, one always wanted to be at the top of power. Only that way could one have a free life.
The same applied to her and her husband.
The plan they have been working for decades was theirs, but they weren't its masters. It was those stronger than us.
"If things work as we want, then we wouldn't need to work for anyone! Not even Dharma Chakra!"
