Chapter 249: The Destructor?
Chapter 249: The Destructor?
...…
In the middle of the Astral Star Fleet's Commander Center.
"Ahh… It seems like we have some visitors."
Azmodeus made a rather entailing comment as his divine sense picked up a number of presences in the Solar Dynasty Realm, all of whom looked as if they were searching for someone.
"Can you get a read on their signatures?" He inquired with the captain beside him.
"S-Sir, from what we can tell, there is no one there…" The Captain nervously stuttered while throwing orders left and right. However, no matter which department he asked for answers, nothing came back on their end.
It was almost like the visitors were… ghosts…
"How interesting… How interesting, indeed." Azmodeus's posture became even more relaxed as he laid his chin against his hand, thinking about the many possible eventualities.
And that was when a certain idea formed inside his mind…
It seems like someone extremely high-ranking in this Quadrant has made a move on me. Or maybe it's someone from beyond this Quadrant…?
That 'servant of the Galactic Lord' did speak about his Lord coming to take my life, so it could be this very existence currently on my trail…
Thoughts swirled around inside his head before another pressing matter was brought to his attention.
If these energy signatures truly do belong to more Servants of the Galactic Lord, then why are they so… weak?
The aura signatures were of the same level of strength as the first servant of the Galactic Lord, but that just didn't make any sense for Azmodeus. After all, why would the Galactic Lord send out a foe just as strong as the one who died?
He eventually stopped brooding over the matter, opting toward a more direct approach…
"Keep the Star Fleet on course. I will deal with these 'visitors', and while I do so, I expect you all to stay in line. I assume this is possible for you?"
"!!!"
*Bang!*
The Captain passionately banged his head against the metal ground and shouted, "Yes, my Liege! We will follow your orders to the last letter!"
At this confirmation, Azmodeus vanished from his spot.
FWIP!
When he reappeared, the Star Fleet had already turned into an assortment of dots in the distance. And in front of his aloof figure, a group of over 90 Peak Solar Dynasty Realm beings stood with overwhelming might!
"You're the Destructor??" The leading figure among the servants asked with a hint of disbelief.
They had caught wind of suspicious energy movements from a few thousand light years away, but they never would've expected to meet the Destructor so soon!
"The Destructor…?" Azmodeus raised his brows as he guessed this was the new nickname he was given.
"Yes, you are the one who set off a supernova in the Areola Quadrant! And you are also the one who dared to destroy what belonged to Galactus, the Galactic Lord!"
The leading servant had already stepped forward as his aura hung over the group like a daunting moon, even causing his fellow servants to tremble before his might!
"Ah… So it seems like neither you nor your Galactic Lord can get a good read on my Star Fleet's exact location… Likely a side effect of getting so close to a black hole." Azmodeus scanned through the most recent series of events as everything started to make a lot more sense.
These weaklings are likely some form of scout unit in the Galactic Lord's army. And from what I can discern, they are not privy to all relevant information.
A cold gleam flashed past his eyes as he tugged on Excalibur, not even giving the opposing forces the chance to breathe.
"!!!"
The leading figure was the only one able to react in time, as he bit his tongue while attempting to dodge. But there was absolutely nothing he could do to stop what was set in stone.
"I think I will take your memories for myself."
These were the last words to resonate within their beings as Excalibur crashed down to the world below, vaporizing everything for dozens of light years.
At the end of it all, even a nearby solar system was destroyed by the residual winds created from this casual sword strike.
When the radioactive energies finally settled down, only death and destruction remained.
"I guess the nickname they gave me is a rather fitting one," Azmodeus mused.
While watching the various system notifications appear in front of him, he also made sure to absorb the scattered memories.
BLING!
