Chapter 550: Michael meets Don I

Chapter 550: Michael meets Don I

Meanwhile, Michael was walking along the walls of the dungeon with Sabrina. He was certain that he would meet the lion with wings and the youngster who carried a sword and a battle ax.      

"Don," Michael recalled the name echoed through the walls a few moments ago. The demonic voice never sounded so pissed off as when it shouted the name.     

According to Hunter, the last universe was the most dangerous one he had visited. Something told Michael that the journey was coming to an end. Thanks to Hunter who wiped out the skinless creatures and the most powerful beings who guarded the shadow realm, Michael never faced any life-threatening battles.     

Michael was both grateful towards Hunter and furious at him for clearing the shadow realm. He could have earned hundreds of thousands of badass points by killing the skinless creatures.     

The question that currently drilled his head was whether the people of the next universe would see him or not. He had to plan for both scenarios.      

"If size mattered," suddenly while they were walking forward, Michael heard an alluringly magnetic voice reverberate in the area,     

"Elephant would be the king of the jungle,"     

"Did you hear that?" Sabrina asked as Michael nodded,     

"What are these voices? Where are they coming from?" Sabrina looked around her surroundings pretty confused,     

"No idea," Michael lied instead of revealing the truth that these voices are coming from other universes through the cracks in shadow realm walls.     

"A king isn't born. He is made," Another voice echoed through the maze. Unlike the previous voice, the latest one had a bit of a thick animalistic tone to it. After hearing the voice, Michael's brain automatically thought of the lion he saw on the wall.     

On the one hand, they heard the voice and on the other hand, they looked around for the beast. While cautious looking around, the two of them continued their journey.      

Michael saw no beast nearby. Instead, he saw a silhouette of a lion with wings in the sky for a second,     

"I will rather be a lonely lion than a popular sheep," Michael could swear he saw the lion talking before disappearing from his sight,     

This time, Sabrina didn't seem to hear the voice as she walked beside him without turning her head,     

"I don't think the beast ran away," instead, she talked about the beast Michael had wounded before.      

"Hmm," Michael nodded as he too shared the same thought. If his gut feeling was right, the beast would be waiting with a trap.     

"Better to reign in hell than serve in heaven," Michael heard the first voice again,     

He quickly looked at the sky, expecting a silhouette, only to see nothing but dark sky,     

"My life…every day... every minute… every second has been chiseled by ME!"     

Michael felt as if his head was about to explode when he heard the thunderous voice sweeping across the maze.     

"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"     

Following the voice, Michael and Sabrina heard the beast roar in agony. The entire maze trembled as Michael felt the violent tremor on the ground,     

"Remember, there are two sides to every story. Just like your face," Once again the voice swept across the maze. But, contrary to before, the voice calmed down the tremor.     

However, Michael had a feeling it was only the calm before the storm. He expected the beast to arrive soon. Then, just like he expected, he began to hear the soft clicking noises in the distance.     

"Let's kill this beast," Sabrina threw the sword in the air and let it fall in her hand. She even cracked her neck just like Michael.     

Michael did not notice Sabrina copying him as he focused on the voices resonating throughout the maze,     

"I begged for love. You gave me a dagger through my heart. Now you ask for forgiveness. I'll give you death,"     

After these words resonated, Michael saw a silhouette of a man wearing dark clothes in the sky above him. He wore dark armor and covered his head with a cloak.      

The man was about to turn around and show his face when Michael noticed a glare in the distance. Michael's instincts screamed at him to dash away,     

Boom!     

Fortunately, Michael reacted in time to dash away. Otherwise, he would have exploded into pieces. When he turned around to see where the explosion was happening, he noticed a meter-wide crate on the ground a few meters away from him. In a blink of an eye, another glare appeared in the distance.     

Before dashing away, Michael looked up at the sky to see the silhouette slowly fading away. Michae was kinda disappointed that he couldn't see the face of the young man an    

d got annoyed by the beast firing fireballs at him from a distance.     

"I had enough of this," Michael growled as he paced up forward with the clear intention to brutally murder the beast. Sabrina ran behind him while avoiding the fireballs.     

"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"     

The beast roared as loud as it counted but surprisingly, the roar sounded like the beast was screaming in pain rather than roaring in anger.     

Michael immediately felt something was up as he halted his pace,     

"Why did we stop?" Sabrina asked Michael with a confused face,     

"Listen"     

"GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"     

Sabrina focused her hearing and heard the beast roar.      

"Focus," Michael whispered as she closed her eyes and focused on the roar. Only then did she sense the pain in the beast's roar,     

When she focused even more, she vaguely heard another growling sound. The screaming trailed off as they moved forward.     

"Don't drop your guard and be ready to cast your shield spell,"     

Michael instructed Sabrina while taking each and every step with utmost caution. He activated his thermal vision so he could see if there were any invisible beasts around them.     

A few meters away, the straight path ended and a sharp corner arrived. They couldn't see what was around the corner but Michael saw traces of luminescent blue blood on the walls,     

Michael quickly pushed Sabrina to the wall and stood his back against the wall.      

"Be ready," Michael whispered before slowly taking steps towards the corner,     

While moving towards the corner, Michael quickly controlled the drones hovering above him and moved them around the corner. However, as soon as the drones flew around the corner, Michael was stunned.     

Through the feed captured by the drones, he clearly saw the beast that had attacked them previously. It was a ten-foot wolf with five eyes on its face. Additionally, the beast's mouth was wide open like a flower.      

But the beast wasn't what surprised Michael because it was dead. Instead, the monster feasting on the beast startled him with its giant size and savage body.     

The humanoid monster stood on its two legs and ravaged the beast with its claws. It gutted the beast, feasting on its entrails. Michael zoomed at the monster to see the resemblance to the skinless creatures he had fought before. The monster covered its skinless body with skulls and bones. Additionally, the monster also had long oily, thick black hair.      

Even the ten feet beast looked tiny under its defeat. The giant monster stood at towering healing of six teen feet tall.      

Suddenly the monster stopped eating the beast's entrails and raised its head. It began to take a whiff of the air, turning its head to the drones. Michael saw its blood-red eyes staring directly at the drone. It had become apparent to Michae that the monster sees through the drone's invisibility somehow.     

Michael immediately tried to pull back the drones, but it was too late for the drones as the monster swatted the drones as though they were flies. The drones weren't built to withstand heavy blows, and the monster could crush a boulder with its palm, let alone his drones.     

BANG!     

When the monster swatted the drones against the wall, the place trembled.      

"GRRRHHH!"     

The monster growled as it took a step forward before kicking the beast away.      

"What do you see?" Sabrina whispered,     

"Shh," Michael shushed Sabrina as he slowly slid along the wall to look around the corner.     

"Fuck you, Hunter," As soon as Michael saw the giant monster with his eyes, he cursed Hunter, who said he wiped off the powerful monsters in the shadow realm.     

Before Michael took his gaze away from the monster, he did notice a deep cut running across the monster's chest. For some reason, Michael thought it was Hunter's handy work. Obviously, Hunter tried to kill the monster by the look of the scar. However, it was evident Hunter failed.     

But Michael had to give it to Hunter, he was crazy and fearless enough to fight the monster head-on.      

"How the hell did he become so powerful?" Michael recalled how easily Hunter massacred the mages and the other Hunter's group. Although Michael had no idea of the power hierarchy in Hunter's universe, he had a feeling that Hunter stood atop the hierarchy.     

The monster was at the fricking Fusion stage level 6. Therefore, Michael knew he could not fight the monster and survive unless he fought the monster as the Dark Lord.     

Shhhhsshshhh!     

The monster kept sniffing the air w    

hile stepping toward Michael and Sabrina. Battle with the monster would be inevitable at this rate.      

Taking a deep breath, Michael turned his head to see Sabrina. He prepared himself to inject Sabrina with the knockout serum using a Spyder and then go full Dark Lord.     

However, he was just about to take out a Spyder when he suddenly noticed the wall directly opposite him crack.     

Before Michael felt a powerful force from the crack sucking his soul into another universe, he heard the young man's voice again,     

"If they stand behind you, protect them. If they stand beside you, respect them. If they stand against you, destroy them,"
