Chapter 508 Meeting Kremeth
Chapter 508 Meeting Kremeth
?
" So mind telling me where we are going this time or do you wish to push me into a burning sun again? " Max said after spending about 24 hours inside the space bubble in silence.
Whatever corner of the universe Angakok was taking him to this time, sure took hell of a lot longer than usual.
" Ho- , funny " Angakok said as he let loose just a sliver of his aura making Max feel suffocated and pressured as his entire body became drenched in sweat within seconds.
" I agree, the trip last time was indeed outside of my expectations, but if it makes you think you can talk to me in that tone boy, let me remind you that I can kill you with the flick of my little finger. So choose your next words carefully, because they might be your last " Angakok said as he reminded Max about the power dynamics of this space bubble.
Max who just survived Angakok's pressure was reminded of how insignificant he was in front of the shaman god and how stupid the idea of lashing back at him verbally really was.
For five minutes Max held his tongue and said nothing as eventually Angakok smiled and said " Good, as for your question, we are going to meet your master and some few other old fogies as for why we are going there, I think your master will explain it best "
Max felt that there was hope, his master Kremeth was one of the strongest god's he knew, if anyone could stand upto the bullying of Angakok it was probably him!
Aside from that he was genuinely happy to meet Kremeth, he had not seen the old turtle for many years now and was excited to show him his progress after the dragon's paradise dungeon.
The duo flew inside the space bubble for 17 hours more before Angakok brought him to a desolate planet in the far corner of the universe where he had built the time chamber.
As the two landed, Max was extremely happy to see his old master Kremeth standing outside a weird looking white dome alongside similarly old looking god's.
' What is this? The council of elders? ' Max wondered as he felt a little intimidated by the old age of the people present here aside from himself.
" The one with the grey hair and light blueish eyes is the great sea god Khnum boy, while the old woman is the earth mother 'Dharti', put some respect behind their names " Drax said in his mind as he introduced the two new god's that Max did not personally know about.
" So this is the boy we are supposed to train? " Khnum said in a raspy voice as he tried to inspect Max but failed to do so.
With Max completing the Agni-Astra, he could no longer be inspected by anyone under tier9 which meant that Khnum could not inspect him either.
" You look strong. Your aura has improved" Kremeth acknowledged as he used senses other than inspection spells to gauge Max's power level.
The boys demeanour had changed, his heart rate and breathing was more stable and his eyes did not dart around needlessly but rather took time to pause and scan things slowly as he contemplated his situation.
" Explain to him the situation that he is in Kremeth, we shall enter the chamber after two hours " Angakok said as he graciously gave Kremeth two hours to talk to Max in private and help him mentally prepare for what was to come once he entered the time chamber.

( Meanwhile Sebastian )
Sebastian was given a very dangerous front-line patrol duty on planet vistara, the third frontline planet that the vampires contested with the Barbarians.
He was given a free reign to advance as desired but was warned about not losing an inch of land to the barbarians.
This was the first time that the Bloodfall clan soldiers had faced an official mission and while there were some veterans and ex- soldiers within the 150,000 troops deployed, most were greenhorns on their first mission.
Sebastian had a huge responsibility on his plate with this batch of newbies as not only did he have to uphold the honour of the clan but also make sure that the greenhorns did not compromise the integrity of the mission at hand.
Unexpectedly on the very first day of deployment they faced a small border dispute as the Bloodfall clan soldiers gave into the provocation of the enemy Barbarians on patrol as a small 25 V 25 fight broke out with losses mounting on both sides.
Sebastian lost 7 soldiers and had to rush 8 more to the infirmary while the barbarians lost 10.
An enraged and emotionally charged atmosphere was created as a result of the deaths of the Bloodfall clan soldiers as the troops demanded their commander to take some concrete measures to ensure that the enemy paid for what they had done.
In the end Sebastian could only give assurances that their time will come someday to calm down the boiling emotions of his camp as he contemplated on whether or not he should use his necromantic powers to secure a big win for their side by conquering the nearest enemy fort.

( Meanwhile Rudra )
Rudra had healed uptil his ankles and it was only a matter of 2.5 months now till he was fully reconstructed and ready to begin his descent back into the habitable universe.
His emotional state had been slightly distressed as of late, ever since he saw glimpses of his own family through his connection with some unknown warrior tapping into his moves.
The thought that his family was out there and still believing him to be dead was gnawing at Rudra's core as he wanted to tell them that he was alive and that the individuals responsible for making his state this pitiful would feel the wrath of his full powers once he was back, but he had no means to do so.
" Hang on Naomi, Ruby, Max, kids, I'll be home soon! " Rudra said with conviction as he refocused on channelling the chaos energy through his body.
