Chapter 769 I've Finally Found You, Father
-----
CLAAAASH!
The two blades pierced the Emperors chest, destroying his dark armor and then reaching his soul. The Emperor attempted to fight, turning completely into a mass of shadows to wrap himself around Frank and engulf him instead, but Frank's entire body emanated a brilliance of countless of powerful divine souls merging together. The Emperor was unable to fight back against such a radiance, as his shadows dissipated when they touched it, and Frank's hands reached the core of his soul…
CRASH!
"U-Uggh… This… Can't be…"
The Emperor muttered those last words, as his eyes were left frustrated, without even being able to learn his true past, as his soul was devoured alongside the last cosmic stone that belonged to Frank's original power which had been scattered into the other worlds.
Frank gained the last bits of memories from the Emperor's past life, connecting all memories together. Sadly, they were all eaten, and the chance for this bastard to revive were null.
Crack… crash!
The dimensional dungeon broke apart, as Orb and Alexander were finally given time to take a breath. Now Frank rushed towards the gates to other worlds, reaching the gate that led to the Cultivation World where humans originated.
He was already fully expecting many invaders coming here and wreaking havoc, but what he found inside was… peace? There was in fact some invaders trying to get in when he looked inside the world, but there was also a gigantic black goo stopping them, a monstrous miasmic creature.
It held the slight scent of Styx… so Frank suddenly realized his little and special daughter had something to do with everything going on in here. He quickly asked her, but she couldn't speak nor understand words well yet, and didn't know what to respond…
"S-She invaded another world without realizing?!" Asked Axitl rather shocked.
"She used the same Miasmic Monsters from when she was trying to overrun Terra in her previous incarnation… Ah, oh well, I am not in the mood to deal with this, and the goo seems to be friendly. I'll leave it there for now."
Frank closed the gates one by one, as he found the same goo in… every world. As he closed the gates, he created a clone which he left in each world to supervise them alongside keeping in check the strange and overpowered Goo of her daughter, which had the potential to conquer worlds, but was rather tame as it only ate wild beasts and monsters, and served as guards that didn't let invaders from the other worlds get to the worlds connected to them due to the Emperor's magic.
He looked back at Earth for a last time, finding that in Tokyo everything was already at peace, but many disasters were left… there were also casualties, the destruction caused by the Chaos Gate was quite catastrophic even when everybody helped. Frank quickly used the Time Stone powers to rewind time in Tokyo, reviving the people alongside returning the buildings back to how they were, and then used Illusion Magic to delete all memories of what had happened from them.
"That should do it…" He sighed.
He ended doing the same for Gaia as well, as the entire capital and the castle was a mess. He couldn't let everyone know that their Emperor had died now, so he created a clone of himself in the shape of the Emperor, and also found Arthurious and explained things to him through telepathy. It was a very long explanation of everything, but the boy understood and made a pact to not reveal this information to anybody with Frank.
Frank left Miriam in the monster nursery with mostly everybody else, as he had already undone the fusion. Miriam managed to fuse with all her other fragments and was slowly awakening more of her previous life powers… knowing that Miriam was a goddess in the past shocked Arthurious, but the boy wasn't going to give up on her even then. Frank was looking forward to Arthurious one day confessing his feelings to his adoptive daughter, he was a good boy, and he already thought about letting him govern the Empire here when he grew up into an adult.
"Where are you going now, brother? Can't you rest for now?" Wondered Kamei.
"Sister… Mother, father, I have something I must talk with all of you… Come." Said Frank.
Frank went to a private room in the monster pet nursery with most of his family there, as he began to explain about his father's past, about the monstrous Overseer, his brother that attacked him and sealed him, and everything in between.
"S-So this is what happened to your father…" His mother couldn't help but feel rather sorrowful.
"What… do you plan to do now?" Wondered Kamei.
"I will bring father back… I-I am not going to force you to get back to him, mother, I know you love Okita, and he's like my second father after all." Said Frank. "But still… I'll bring him here."
"That's okay… I have… I still love him as my family, as the father of my son, I'll welcome him with open arms." Said Frank's mother with a gentle smile.
"I-I… Erm, well, yeah, no problem." Said Okita. He was the one that felt the most awkward, but it was better to be cooperative than say anything else.
"Alright then… wait for me a little bit." Said Frank.
He quickly broke through space and time, and flew out into a wormhole leading into the outside of the universe, after the fight with the Emperor, he fully regained his powers as a quarter Overseer, and he felt like if he continued practicing, his powers could already allow him to travel between Universes… Arthur was left in his world as well, so he wasn't able to get his power as he didn't die, but he remained as a good friend, and Frank planned to go to Camelot for a summer break in the next few months.
FLAAASH!
Frank flew into the cosmos outside the Universe, reaching the Sea of Emptiness. Guiding himself, he ignored billions of bubbles containing Universes, reaching the black hole where his father was confined.
"Father… I've finally found you, just as I promised." He said with a smile, entering the black hole.
