Karyk entered the portal of the Central World.
Passing through the portal, he felt as if centuries had passed in an instant by the time he came out from the other side.
Not long after him, the Four Generals and the Goddess of Light also entered. However, all of them appeared right next to a majestic castle.
The portal led them straight to the Palace of the King of Upper Realm. Even Karyk knew that his disguise was going to be useless before the King of the Upper Realm.
He wasn't sure if he could win either. In any case, now that he was finally here, he didn't need to accompany these people anymore.
He had to get back to work, finding what he was looking for. However, before that...
He glanced at the Goddess of Light, who wasn't too far from him.
His figure flickered, and the next minute he appeared right before the Goddess of Light. Her aura wasn't hidden anymore either.
Now that the Four Generals saw Karyk use his aura of death, they were momentarily stunned. This wasn't the boy who was a weak mortal. Instead, he was someone whose speed surpassed their own.
Even the Goddess of Light had her eyes wide open as she exclaimed only one word, "You!"
Karyk's hands were about to grab the throat of the Goddess of a Light, but before he could, he felt another powerful aura.
The space between Karyk and the Goddess of Light split apart. Karyk's hands passed through the Goddess of Light, as if she was in a parallel space!
The Goddess of Light still remained there but Karyk failed to touch her.
At the same time, he saw the space breaking apart even further, as a young man stepped out of the portal, gracefully donning a beautiful Royal Attire!
"Your Majesty!" All the Generals exclaimed, looking at the person who had just appeared out of thin air.
He was none other than the person who was the King of the Upper Realm, the person who was called a God by the people of the upper realm... The man known as Aliac, the person who controlled the Supreme Element of Space!
There were only four Supreme Elements known by the people of the Upper Realm: Life, Death, Space and Time. And Aliac controlled Space amongst them.
Even as he stopped calmly, space around him twisted and turned, making him look even more surreal.
His long silver hair matched his pale silver eyes that appeared like they could see through everything.
At the moment, his eyes were landing on Karyk.
A beautiful silver robe, made purely from the broken space Fragments fluttered behind Aliac's back.
On the other side, the aura of Death was surrounding Karyk. His clothes had turned pitch black as every single piece of grass around him started dying, unable to resist the death!
Karyk's long black robe fluttered with the wind as well, as he faced the King of the Upper Realm. After so long, he was finally standing face to face with the person he heard so much about... He was finally facing the person who ordered his death... The person who was behind most of his suffering.
On the other side, the Goddess of Light was standing silently. Deep in her heart, she was feeling gleeful! She couldn't believe that everything turned out to be in her favor so easily.
This was all she wanted... A battle between the God of Space and the God of Death, in which both of them were going to die, or get heavily injured to the extent where she could easily take care of them.
"We finally meet..." The God of Space spoke, but he didn't attack.
He clapped his hand, swiftly changing the landscape. The surroundings changed.
The God of Space and Karyk appeared inside the Royal Palace. However, the Four Generals and the Goddess of Light weren't there.
Aliac was back on his throne, lazily glancing at Karyk, noticing the death fragments around the young man which even gave him some chill.
"I'm surprised as to how far you've managed to progress in such a short time. Returning to life, making a Domain of your own and then returning back safely from the Nether Realm? Even I would have hesitated to do some of those things. Not that's not all, you even killed a True God from that place..."
Aliac calmly spoke, as his beautiful eyes observed Karyk carefully.
"Why aren't you trying to kill me anymore? Isn't that what you wanted?" Karyk asked, snapping his fingers.
Multiple evil spirits came out from within his body, flying behind him to make a throne of his own, which wasn't any lower than the throne of the King of Upper Realm.
The King of Upper Realm revealed an amused smile.
"You're right. I should kill you while I have the opportunity. However, even I know that it won't be that easy. And isn't this also what your little friend wants for both of us?" The silver haired man further spoke, implying that he already knew everything about the little trick of the Goddess of Light.
"You've managed to impress me. And I want to give you an offer... Work with me, and I'll forgive all your past transgressions," Aliac exclaimed and waited for Karyk's response.
To his surprise, Karyk didn't even take the offer seriously, even though it really wasn't a bad offer.
However, as Karyk thought more about it, he noticed something unusual in the words of the King of Upper Realm. He didn't ask him to work under him, but to work with him! What did it mean?!
Seeing Karyk frowned, the King of the Upper Realm smiled. "I know you hate me. However, what would you do if you were in my place and there was a person who came from an unknown realm and started killing people in your domain? Won't you try to kill him? I did the same? Am I wrong?"
"However, have you ever wondered why I never leave the Central World? Why did I always stay here, and didn't even leave to kill you?" He further asked.
