321 More than a Dungeon?
"Those beings… they came… they wanted me to be their plaything for eternity… Treating me like a pet. I had no option but to hide here… Someday I will be strong enough to kill them all. I cannot die against insects like you all," she added as she went back to her 'I will kill you all' mode.
"The Higher Gods, huh? Seems like those bunches are still thriving in this reality," Aarick spoke as he sighed. His eyes were half frustrated, half thrilled as he looked at the Queen before vanishing from the front of my eyes and appearing right behind her.
'Fast!' I exclaimed as I observed him getting ready for a punch. Though the Queen was already prepared for the punch as she turned around and countered the punch with her own fists.
"Miss Queen. I know you want to kill the Higher Gods… but apologies… you don't have the capability to do that," he spoke as he added a lot of energy to that punch of his. Being pushed back by the extra energy that Aarick put, the Queen was brought down to the ground, directly in my direction.
He looked at me as he pointed at his chest. His eyes looked rather serious right now. I sighed as I concentrated on the Queen…
[Ground Zero: First Slash!]
[Temporal Redo!]
And hit at the exact same spot where Aarick had pointed to…
-Slash!!!!!
A huge chunk of energy flew out of her body at once, making her body shake vigorously.
"I-Imm-mm-IM.. iMPOSS…- iiib.. lE… H-H-H-how-did-you-... you…-crosses– cross– the barr– with–o ut– divine – en- en- en- ergy?" she spoke with her broken speech as her body was rapidly shaking. It wasn't just that but the surrounding energy also was becoming chaotic.
"[Vanquish]!!!" Aarick spoke in a loud voice that reverberated throughout the area, erasing the chaotic energies that were surrounding the Queen.
"GO ALL OUT!!!" Shouted Aarick as his body changed to red completely, while I sighed as I used another one of my moves.
[Multiple Copy: Temporal Redo added to the 3rd slot!]
-Whoosh!
[Warp!]
Aarick appeared behind her, with me in front of her.
[Ground Zero: First Slash!]
I went first
[Temporal Redo!]
[Temporal Redo (Copy)!]
[Warp!]
And then I warped above her, while I watched Aarick, noticing my attack with a surprised look before he smiled even more brightly as he tightened his grip. This time… he used another attack different from last time.
"[Ground Zero: Second Slash]!" Aarick shouted as his sword turned black, his eyes closed. I could sense a strange energy radiating through him.
-Slash!
A single slash that vanished all sounds from the area.
[Temporal Locking!]
Using a skill that I received when I reached level 30, I paused time for myself, freezing myself in time. Since Diaspora was neither in the way of the impact, nor too close to it, she should be able to brace herself. But me being close to it…
"Are you trying to kill me too with it?" I looked at him with a pained look as I observed him destroying almost most of the Queen.
But that wasn't enough either…
"[Wither]! [Decay]! [Absorb]!" Aarick shouted as the Queen evaporated from the front in an instant. Perhaps because she was severely weakened, he could finally use that damned Divine Speech?
The Queen's body, which had evaporated before, once giant became visible in the form of energy, before all of it floated down into Aarick's body slowly and slowly. This bastard was getting an upgrade, huh?
I kind of wanted to stop him from getting too overpowered, but then again… I too was getting more powerful

The notification rang through my brain as I looked at them one by one. My eyes reached the last one before I looked at Diaspora, standing listless with her eyes blanked out. Observing everything with her own two eyes, she still couldn't believe what she just saw.
"Oi!" I called out to her, making her turn towards me. Her eyes still blanked, she barely focused on what I wanted to say.
"You got an hour to travel. Where do you want to go?" I asked as I folded my hands at the back of my head. I wondered if there was anything else in this world that I could take.
"Huh?!" Her eyes shone as she realized that she could look around this planet. While the real planet is in ashes, I wonder how much different this one is.
She immediately stood up before nodding at me.
"Thank you. It won't take much time, but there is one place that I want to go," she spoke out and I nodded before I asked her to take us there. Or, to be precise, I asked her to take us to the place where she wanted to go.
"Sure. Let's go," I mumbled as I looked at the distance from here and.
[Warp!]
Teleported all of us there within a moment before warping again. Under the guidance of Diaspora, it didn't take much time before we reached a particular mountain. It was a black mountain with blueish green snow covering the top.
Rather than going to the mountain itself, we landed near the base of the mountain. And much to my surprise…
"Who are you people?!!!" There was a villager standing there, trying to stop us from entering. Looking at their faces and auras, they seemed to be dragonkins…
[Inspect!]

I looked at Diaspora, shocked as she looked at those people. It seemed she wanted to say something, but before she could utter a single word, Aarick took charge.
"We are just travelers. We happen to stumble upon this place… may I know what place it is?" He was polite for the rowdy personality he always had.
[Eyes of the TimeKeeper (Foresight)!]
I kept my guards up as I looked at those people. While Aarick tried to solve the situation by talking, his eyes seemed to be rather cautious despite his casual yet well-mannered speech.
Hearing his words, the dragonlings murmured among themselves before the guy at the front, Malag, spoke,
"We need you to come with us, then. We will find out whether you are truly lost or are just here with bad intentions. Though I must warn you… if you try to pull anything weird," Malag spoke as he pointed his blue spear at Aarick as he added," it won't end well."
"Sure," Aarick said as he smiled before all three of us entered the village under the supervision of the guards.
