Chapter 64: The Hero of Darkness
The voice was filled with frenzy, sounding like a villain’s maniacal laughter.
However, it wasn’t far from the truth.
Because the owner of this voice was indeed a villain.
…
“It’s Mr. Castor.”
“What?!”
…
Suddenly, Castor’s figure appeared on the screen.
His power was so unfathomable that as sunlight reached him, it distorted, flickering and becoming unstable.
A faint energy fluctuation was gathering around Castor.
Upon seeing such power, Lonis took a deep breath:
“Is… is that a forged Rainbow Abyss! Has Castor already achieved mastery?!”
Even though he was no longer an equal opponent, simply gazing at Castor filled Lonis with a heartfelt sense of pressure.
He merely stood there, as if he could affect the entire world. Whether it was the mechanical monsters flying in the sky or the warriors fighting on the moon’s surface… everyone, everything, all light seemed to lose its color.
And in this world, only Castor was the sole ruler.
…
Even the evolved forms of the Supremes were no exception.
Facing Castor, they tried to release beams of light, to unleash power that could impact everything, but Castor simply snapped his fingers with ease.
…
“Let this be the end?”
…
The man let out a cold smile, and then…
Everything was completely devoured.
Whether it was the evolved forms floating in the sky or the cannonballs that had turned into spheres, all the weapons from the Supremes were reduced to ashes by Castor’s power, turning into a void that could no longer stir.
…
“So powerful!”
“This is… Castor’s power?”
…
Looking at the scene before them, the girls were speechless in awe.
Especially Lonis, she didn’t even know if she could still fight Castor.
Because it seemed that Castor had become even stronger… During the time she and her companions were heading to Jupiter, Castor seemed to have broken through something, becoming completely different from before.
So…
…
“Elus, I…”
“Hmph, you little idiot, are you scared? He just defeated a bunch of weaklings, what’s so great about that!”
“Huh?”
…
Lonis blinked her eyes. In fact, if it hadn’t been for Castor’s desire to take her and Elus into his harem, Lonis might have been scared during the battle.
This guy’s power was very strange, and he was essentially her opposite—if she was the Hero of Light standing in the light, then he was undoubtedly the Hero of Darkness.
So, although she wouldn’t admit to Elus that she was scared, Lonis’s heart was filled with mixed feelings, unable to calm down.
…
And just as Castor annihilated all the Supremes’ puppets, completely clearing everything…
A fluctuation appeared once more.
…
“W-wait, what is that?”
“Hero Lonis, look over there!”
…
Lian Lan pointed to a void, and in that space, Lonis also noticed something was wrong.
Although the image hadn’t changed in the slightest, Lonis felt an indescribable sense of incongruity.
The feeling made her very uncomfortable, as if her perception was being overturned—someone was pointing to a blue lake and telling her it was red.
The other companions were also affected to some extent, only Elus frowned and said:
“It’s coming, be prepared.”
“!”
“Is this the real thing from the Supremes? A product completely beyond our comprehension…”
…
…
Before Elus could finish speaking, an enormous, colossal object emerged from the universe.
At its core was a massive rectangular prism, hundreds of cubic kilometers in volume—it did not refract any light, but instead, as time passed, it continuously refreshed with different colors.
Red, blue, yellow, purple… but these were still colors Lonis could name.
What was most bizarre was that the surface of the giant object displayed many colors that Lonis had never seen before!
They belonged to no known color system, so much so that Lonis couldn’t believe such colors could actually exist—but they did change over there, causing the girls to look with astonishment, like villagers entering a city for the first time.
“What… what is that thing?!”
“Damn it, if only Senior Isumi were here… Ah, I…”
“Lonis, don’t blame yourself. We need to be prepared now. If anything happens to Castor or the ground, it will be our turn to step in.”
“Okay.”
…
…
Without Senior Isumi’s help, the girls couldn’t even name what this thing was.
And this bizarre object was not just tens of kilometers in size, but suddenly, it extended numerous transparent tentacles around itself.
“Is that… is that a tentacle monster used by the Supremes?!”
“Idiot fox, what do you mean by a tentacle monster used by the Supremes? Does your mind only think of tentacle monsters?”
…
After Elus hit her head hard, Lonis noticed that the things extending out were less like tentacles and more like dark thorns.
Their existence was somewhat similar to the piano wire that the girls had seen in the space-time turbulence before.
However, the space occupied by these thorns was overwhelmingly vast… in just over ten seconds, it had reached the same volume as the moon.
…
“So… so exaggerated…”
“Mr. Castor is about to make his move.”
…
Compared to Lonis, who was easily alarmed, Castor himself felt no fear.
Rather, Castor himself represented fear.
As for the unknown, and powerful enemies, his heart would only feel joy—an existence that couldn’t kill him would only make him stronger, so no matter what kind of power or threat, it was merely a trial for the evolution of life.
…
Therefore, Castor charged forward without hesitation. The power in his hand did indeed cut through several thorns, and he gradually moved towards the enemy’s core.
But, at this very moment…
Something bizarre happened.
Perhaps Castor hadn’t noticed, but Lonis did… Castor’s body was gradually shrinking.
His original height was 1 meter 89, which was already outstanding among humans. But now his body seemed to have shrunk to about 1 meter 74, just the height of an ordinary person.
Was this the compression of matter caused by the distortion of space?
Just as Lonis felt a doubt, she realized that things were not that simple… because Castor’s height not only decreased, but his power also regressed significantly.
Originally, with just a slight use of power, Castor could destroy matter within a radius of several kilometers.
But now, he couldn’t maintain such a wide range, and even the black hole that represented the copied Rainbow Abyss…
“We’re finished, is this thing the Time’s Tomb?!”
…
Looking at the scene before her, Elus gasped.
And Lonis had never seen Elus wear such a shocked expression. She quickly leaned forward and held the black-haired girl’s wrist.
“Elus, what is Time’s Tomb? Is Castor okay?”
“Castor is in danger! He is definitely no match for Time’s Tomb, because…”
…
Before Elus could finish speaking, her companions already understood her meaning.
Because, within the domain affected by the Time’s Tomb.
Castor’s body gradually became younger, first turning into a young man, and finally…
Castor actually turned back into a little boy!
