Book 6: Chapter 17


    <strong>Scarlet</strong>


    Yep. Very annoying.


    Somehow I find myself standing at the edge of a balcony with my wed finger just asionally tapping on the railing of the balcony looking out over a massive za within the castle. A castle belonging to the guy who was, in fact, a king. The ruler of this entire in fact.


    From what I can tell, he’s only about as strong as a ss III or ss IV Guardian. Somewhere on the edge of the two, at the end of ss III.


    So weak.


    But impressive that he got this strong without a System.


    He’s also having a statue built for me in the za as we speak, and wouldn’t hear a word of denial about it.


    So… yeah.


    <strong>“That’s intriguing…” </strong>the pixie queen – ruler of the pixies and the contracted partner of the king of this world – mutters while standing on the railing next to me. <strong>“So you came here from your world to stop the Red Death froming here?”</strong>Red Death?


    “What do you mean by that?” I ask with a frown. “By Red Death.”


    She looks confused for a second before answering, <strong>“The substance of which you have locked within your body. Of which you call ‘Red gue’.”</strong>


    Oh. So I guess these pixies call it something else.


    Interesting.


    I went ahead and told my story to the pixie out of boredom since there’s literally nothing else to do here while I wait for the stupid fae king toe bring me to the next world. But I didn’t expect for these pixies to have so much knowledge on the universe, just like the fae.


    And even moreso didn’t expect them to have different terms for things.


    Guess they really are just different types of spirits from different realities.


    “In that case, yes, that’s why I came here,” I tell her with a shrug while ring at the statue of me they’re putting up. One with me wearing some sort of dress-armor instead of the basic clothes I’m wearing now. As if my current outfit didn’t look cool or stylish enough. Although the other statues they’re putting up around the world – yes, there’s more, unfortunately – have me dressed as I am now. With my jacked and regr clothes. Albeit made of blood. “Just waiting for that old man to pick me up and bring me to the next world to get my fill of void creatures.”


    The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.


    <strong>“Very well,” </strong>the pixie queen says. <strong>“Then would you like me to assist you with that goal?”</strong>


    I blink for a moment before turning to look at the pixie queen.


    “Huh?” I mutter, surprised by her words. And confused as well.


    <strong>“Pardon me, Goddess Wolf of Blood, but I believe this King of the Fae you speak of most likely intended for you to be sent on your way by the spirit rulers of which you save,” </strong>the pixie queen continues, surprising me even more. <strong>“However, he must have been taxed if he did not exin this to you.”</strong>


    Or he was just toozy. Or wanted to mess with me somehow. Or held a grudge.


    I nce upwards slightly as my mind goes back to our time in the Fae Ascension Tournament. And all of the walls I broke through with my Red gue.


    Then I lower my head again and give a firm nod.


    Probably thatst one.


    I don’t regret a thing.


    “Then would you do the honors?” I ask the pixie queen next to me with my head tilted ever so slightly.


    <strong>“With pleasure, Savior Goddess,” </strong>she says with a bow. <strong>“May you go with good tidings and luck on your way to save the universe from the Great One.”</strong>


    Huh. Another different term for-


    I find myself teleporting out of nowhere to reappear in the air over another world without warning.


    -something…


    I nce upwards before nkly staring at the massive, world-sized monsters approaching this significantly more massive world beneath me. To the point that these monsters – clearly ss V void creatures – are as big as the moons surrounding the world.


    “Uh…” I mutter while staring at them. “You fes are big…”


    The creatures look like massive alien-like bugs, with tentaclesing out of their backs and scythe-like limbs simr to praying mantis in front of them. Multiple limbs. Meanwhile it’s body is like a long and narrow pyramid downwards, going straight to another de on the end. And its mouth isrge enough to eat multiple cities whole, with a head that is rather long in terms of its forehead.


    Oh, and they’re a grayish green in color.


    Guess that pixie queen sent me to a world being attacked by a couple void heralds. Unexpected, but not unwee.


    Also, how was she able to teleport me? And she implied that all the rulers of the spirits can teleport people? So it’s not just the Fae King?


    Interesting. But not really something I can pay much attention to right now.


    Not with these big fes making their way over here with a massive swarm of void creatures. A swarm sorge that I can practically see nothing more than an endless wave of tentacles, bugs, and scales.


    A rather disturbing sight.


    I nce back at the world to find it to actually be even more advanced than Earth in terms of technology. Which I wasn’t expecting.


    It also looks like a lot of people are pointing cameras at the air. Or rather, at me. Not at the void invasion, but at me.


    Guess those cameras have a rather long range?


    And I can hear more whispers of a goddess… just peachy…


    Actually, my eyes narrow as I spot some spaceships in the air. Not very advanced ones based on sci-fi I’ve seen at least, but good enough to get into space and have weapons on them.


    Doubt they’dst long traveling away from the though.


    Unexpected. But I have business to attend to.


    And at this point I don’t really care about attention. I already have a bunch of statues on that other world whose name I actually never got.


    What’s some media presence here gonna do to me?


    I turn around and refocus on the void invasion.


    Time to fight.
