298 The Goal Of Lara

"Firstly, I was aware of your existence the entire time. I didn't think you'd come to me so soon, and I also did not plan to strike at you just yet, but you surprised me for sure," Dante began as he glanced at Lara's pristine pale skin that seemed just healthy enough to not be taken as a vampire.

"Secondly, you are not my match. The entire time we fought, I was toying with you. You came and started talking big, and I was not in the mood to waste time, so you fell under my illusion from that very moment."

"I mean, seriously. I do not need to summon Levi out to talk to him and have him do his work, and summoning him out during battle would be a foolish rookie mistake."

Dante folded his legs as he glanced at the slowly-coming-to-terms Lara. "Unfortunately for me, and Levi here, we can both see what happens within a person's illusory world. Killing my Truth Beast? You're quite capable, huh?"

Lara remained silent as her expression became gloomy. "Who the hell are you, and how do you know me?"

"I am the Quantum Lord, Dante. As for you, Lara Sanguis, I know you because you're quite popular in another universe I've traveled to," Dante introduced himself with a dramatic bow.

Lara sized up Dante. "Quantum Lord? What a stupid name. You lower lifeforms of the sub-universes are truly amusing."

Dante shrugged off her contempt. "Whatever floats your boat. What I care about is what exactly you plan to do by coming down here with so many clones."

Lara sneered. "My goals are beyond the comprehension of a piece of trash like you." nOVelB1n

Dante shook his head and turned to the still furious Levi, who had seen his outcome in the illusory world and was greatly miffed.

"What is her true purpose?"

Levi rubbed his neck gently as if he could feel the phantom pain of being grabbed and spoke coldly. "She plans to use the origins of all the universes to refine the seal placed on her main body and free herself."

Lara's pupils constricted. "How could you possibly know that? How could you know this and not alert my main consciousness?"

She raised her head to glance at Dante as if she was looking at him for the first time, the shock and dismay evident on her pale white face.

"How can this be... you don't even have a mere Origin being supporting you, but an actual Eternal?"

Dante frowned and turned to Levi. "What are Origin beings and what are Eternals?"

Levi calculated silently and then sighed. "I cannot say even though I know because the Cosmic Tree feels it's not yet time for you to know. Only when you take Quantum Entanglement to the S rank would you be qualified to know such a thing."

Oh?

Then this meant that this concerned a significant secret about the universe!

Dante was not bothered about reaching the S rank because he could easily get there in time; it was not like it was difficult, especially with his current resources. To be honest, it was mostly just time-consuming.

He glanced at the shell-shocked Lara who was still mumbling to herself stupidly. It seemed as if nothing apart from the revelation that he was supported by an 'Eternal' which should be the Cosmic Tree, could truly get to her.

Her reaction made Dante all the more eager to uncover this secret and understand why it had such a powerful being in a stupor. So he recollected Levi and left the quantum space, leaving Lara bound and tied in one of its distant corners.

As for him, he returned to the Stellar Vanguard 11 and resumed his Quantum Clonefor it to handle business as usual in the Centralis Universe. As for him, he naturally teleported back into the Eternal Universe because it was time to migrate himself and his family to the First Gate.

From the onset, Dante didn't only plan to go himself. He would take Beatrice and Antonia there too, for despite the danger, he had the strong confidence to protect them and also because they absolutely needed to go.

Both mother and daughter needed to align their abilities and unlock their true potential, and Dante was here to help them with that in every way. The first step was to grant them the necessary powers and allow them to have an environment where they could both grow their abilities without delay.

Now that Dante knew Lara's insidious purpose for sending clones down, he was filled with dismay and a hint of worry. He might have stopped her clone here, but who knew how much progress she made in other universes that he had yet to see.

The idea that he could suddenly be 'refined' was troubling but he had protected his home universe, but it meant little. His universe of origin was now tied to the Eternal Universe as well as the Centralis Universe, so he had to defeat the Lara here too and foil her plan.

Otherwise if the Eternal Universe was refined away, putting aside whether the Cosmic Tree could save him, it would mean bye-bye to Beatrice, Portia, Augeus, his parents, his friends and especially the newly born Antonia.

That was obviously unacceptable.
