Chapter 57: Fate Stars!
Max and the twins saw a beast similar to a bat in the sky.
He had vast wings, silver scales, and a somewhat draconian head. Although he was far from such a proud and strong race, the beast left a strong impression on every player around Max.
The best was known as the wyvern.
But that was Earth, and there were more ordinary people than players.
Screams of horror quickly followed the beast's screeches. People couldn't believe their eyes, for an army of beasts swarmed the sky, trampled the streets, and invaded the houses!
"What the fuck?" Max whispered, his eyes reflecting the sky. What used to be a starry sky turned into… a land of monsters. He couldn't believe what had just occurred, turning to Zamira, requesting her wisdom.
But as the tanned dragon gazed in shock at the sky, Max knew that he wouldn't be able to get information from her now.
Worse, Max still hadn't regenerated all his mana. He wouldn't be able to oppose all this army should they target him. Fortunately, the beasts relished their freedom, only aiming for defenseless citizens.
"Other two family heads should be busy with those monsters, so they won't come here," Max looked for at least one positive thing in this chaos.
And then, one of the players approached him with respect. It was a beautiful girl with tempting curves that Max recognized.
Muller Sofia. She wasn't controlled by Lucas's mind control skills, and she fought against him and his grandpa to death. She was a player Max willed to trust, for she also listened to his words.
And she was also a hottie.
Sofia gazed at Max with uncontrollable emotions. Her heart kept pounding, her breathing becoming erratic. She was stressed like never before, for a handsome man before she was her savior.
His looks compelled her to not blink, and his strength and mana left her with immense admiration for him.
With just a few words, Max would be able to get this girl for his harem. However, as he was surrounded by monsters, he couldn't think of his fun games.
At the same time, Sofia collected her thoughts. She bowed, out of her own will this time, before max, canting her upper body in nearly perfect 90 degrees, "Those monsters hail from the dungeon, Master.
I fear that something must have happened to all dungeons on Earth…." Sofia explained what she knew, her words drawing Max's attention.
First, how she called him rang out too nicely in his mind. He gave her props for that before focusing on the serious matters.
The dungeons.
From what Max knew, the dungeons held beasts and challenges for all existences around the world. Many people believed that the dungeons were a preparation for the real deal, The Tower.
As for as those dungeons were concerned, no existence trapped here should be ever able to leave it. Of course, nothing stopped people from entering them.
The three families used secret means to hide the dungeons from the ordinary people, getting all their treasures out of it for themselves.
"That's what must have happened…" Zamira whispered, her voice shaking as she turned her attention to Max, "The Twelfth Fate Star… It was really about you… The timing was not a coincidence…
You are the last piece the universe had been waiting for to usher the new era," Zamira's voice grew weaker with each second, for she couldn't believe in such a thing.
Her little sister, Alice, gasped in shock, staring at Max as if he were a monster from hell.
"It was not a coincidence?" Alice asked faintly, her voice barely audible.
And as those two twins trembled from their shock, Sofia couldn't help but do the same, fearing that something like an unavoidable meteor had been on its way, erasing the world in due time.
Max ruffled the twin girls' hairs, forcing them to look into his eyes, "Explain what that Fate Star thing is."
Zamira belatedly parted her lips, explaining what she knew, "Each era started with fate stars setting up new rules. After their deaths, their era continues until new fate stars arrive...
The Fate Stars' concepts are absolute, and only their own kind can destroy them. Throughout the ears, people have recorded a few battles between fate stars.
And as you have become one of them, you must have formed a new concept that will change the whole universe…." Zamira replied softly, yet she was so stressed that Max wanted to bring her back home.
As he peeked at Alice's expression, he saw nothing but nerves taking over her, erasing her usual energetic expression.
He sighed, "You mean… that my wish to kill the three family heads and their system resulted in me forming a concept that… destroys dungeons?"
"I think so… You might find this information in your system. But if you don't, you have to adventure to find your purpose," Zamira replied, adding, "Other fate stars might try to snatch your powers, so it's important to continuously grow up in strength…
You will never find… a peace," Zamira explained, her heart soaked in concern, for she feared Max's future would be nothing but battles.
But as he laughed, Zamira blinked her eyes, adorably looking at him with her frozen body. Her little sister was the same.
Max's laughter heightened, his voice booming in the era, "I thought I'm fated to be the best dual cultivator with my mana! It turns out I have more to my origins.
It sucks for that fate star or whatever it is that it woke up so late. I have already taken a liking to dual cultivation and can't wait to have a night with my twin dragons.
You said I will always be fighting, Zamira? Wrong! No fate can alter my plans. I will visit worlds, take their highest mountain for myself, plant trees, and continue soaring in the universe as I meet my grandpa's old friends and families!
And as I have two cuties with dangerous background, I will help with their plight, adding it to my plans. They will be in the spotlight as other girls chase me!
My life will continue as I get surrounded by more people! It's that simple!" Max declared.
And as Zamira and Alice gazed at him, their expressions melted, replaced by beautiful and mesmerizing smiles, sharing the same emotion, "You sound too convincing; I will believe and follow you.
Darling…" the twins' shared emotions broke when they called their beloved such an intimate nickname.
With thunder in her voice, Alice said this peculiar word, sounding energetic as if Max's words had given her energy.
Zamira remained soft and tender, her voice pulling strings in her usual way. She truly could melt Max's heart, as if she laced her tone in her flame skills.
Max grinned, "Fate can only chase me like other girls. We yearn for equality, don't we?"
"I don't think there will be ever equality with us being by your side," Zamira added with a chuckle.
Alice proudly puffed her chest, still naked, "I already told this girl that she can only chase while my sister and I have him for myself.
The reality is before her eyes!"
And as Sofia gazed at them with confusion breaking her common sense, she could only nod to Alice's words, as if the water dragon momentarily tempered her soul to agree with her every word.
Max scratched his hair, "What a mess, though."
"You say that now?" the three girls replied in tandem.
