290 Chapter 289: Otherworldly invader
The introduction was short and the Beyond vanished alongside most of his aids. According to Rose, they were all stationed at various places across the empire, safeguarding it with their lives and this is the sole reason why Armanthos and his subordinates are still unable to breach the walls.
Each province is granted a Regional Head and a guardian from the order of stars. The guardian can be considered the last defensive line of the province he is located in.
The northern province had Belial as its Regional head while the Sun spirit was its guardian.
The southern province had Rose as its Regional head while the gravity spirit was its guardian.
The eastern province had Iris as its Regional head while the moon spirit was its guardian.
Finally, the Western province had oItid as its Regional head while the star spirit was its guardian.
The new hosts were the defenders of the imperial capital while the Space spirit was the personal Guardian of the Emperor and the imperial palace.
The defenses put in place were terrifying and at a point, Cecile began to understand why Damon had a defeated look. Not because he was scared of the opposition but the people surrounding it!
With the new hosts born with no recollection of the past, the Beyond and the old gods quickly moved in and pulled them in as allies.
.....
They took a different approach and pulled the new gods into their fold instead of killing them. Their little cult is something terrifying because they can keep consuming new god veins using this same setting and tactics until they have turned this small gathering into a large fleet of deities under one powerful being.
While Damon was the embodiment of greed who consumed all the power alone, the Beyond was the opposite who wasn’t afraid to share the power.
Just as long as those getting stronger are his subordinates.
His system was far more elaborate and effective than Damon had expected and he was inwardly thankful he did not reveal his identity and turn into the Beyond before finding out these things.
Meanwhile, Cecile was left speechless by the structure built by these people. They realized in this new mana-less world the deities and few supernatural beings were ranked by the popular star system brought up by the Beyond with the highest being the five-star rank.
Every starred individual in the empire was treated as a priceless resource. Even the pope and the Cardinals of the holy church were up to one star. Anything below that level is not worth mentioning.
But the thought of it terrified Cecile. As a member of this order of stars, his base strength was already greater than that of the pope!
When he was thinking of becoming Damon’s first and only worshiper. He expected to be on the level of bishops and archbishops, but never did he dream of surpassing the pope instantly.
“All these people are just pawns within our grand plan. The star system just reveals how much power you can force your body to manifest in their world. The body of a dragon is said to be powerful and depending on your affinity you shouldn’t have a problem ranking up to three-star” Rose encouraged Cecile.
It seemed like he wanted to get on the good side of the youth since he expected more from him.
“As expected, even within the order of stars, there will be chaos and factions. As long as beings with separate minds and will are separate, unity is never absolute. The only way to create true peace is by becoming the only one. The beginning and the end…” Damon’s words rang in Cecile’s head repeatedly.
He could see that Beyond and Damon were practically the same but they both had different ways of doing things. As long as one can understand this, he can tell the difference.
According to Rose, the empire has been gifted with countless shields and finally, they need a spear. Right now, Cecile was chosen as the spear meant to lead its soldiers outside the empire and hunt down its enemies.
“Tch! They are only trying to keep you at a distance while trying to gauge your strength and loyalty” Damon commented on this leaving the youth even more anxious.
He felt like he was just a neutral pawn piece on a chessboard. A piece that both Damon and the Beyond can use as they wish.
He wondered what would happen if he gives up on this and just enjoys his position as a star member.
What would happen if Damon left him?
Would he still retain the power?
Would Damon find a new host and come back for vengeance?
The entire day was a stressful one, leaving Cecile’s mind chaotic and unstable. Damon understood this that’s why he paid no heed to the crazed thoughts of this mortal and acted as if nothing was happening.
But then…
Buzzz!
Damon’s eyes flashed with cruelty as he looked in the direction of the stars and frowned deeply.
“What is this?” Damon paled in shock as he felt something break into their world.
Buzzzz!
Powerful invisible shock waves ripple across the world, leaving only the God level beings in worry.
Buzzz!
It felt as if their vision was pulled off the ground into the distant space planets away from the God vein. There a man stood with a calm and indifferent look on his face.
He wore a black leather jacket and jeans with thick boots.
Around his neck was a black scarf dangling gracefully.
This man had his ears pierced with pitch-black eyes, carrying a dreadful aura.
The aura of a Demon lord!
“You all have your eyes on me? Disrespectful…” the man said casually and waved his hand, releasing an invisible force that shattered all the eyes pinned on him.
Buzzz!
Just as Damon was returning to the real world he felt the world turn pure white as a pair of two pitch-black eyes opened in the background sending shivers down his spine.
