Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 747 - Fathers and Daughters

In the Infinite Galaxy, a Ruler was in the mystical space looking down on a multitude of stars and hidden realms of what seemed like a Galaxy, and yet this galaxy seemed never-ending as it spanned endlessly in all directions!

This Ruler was of course the fearsome Imperial Adjudicator who ruled the Nexus Galaxy and even took multiple other galaxies under his rule.

Yet in the past few days...this same Imperial Adjudicator found himself questioning life and whether it truly had meaning as his entire world view was shattered!

A being that he thought to be a genius of his galaxy turned out to be something purely ridiculous, someone that his own Galaxy worked with to bring out an unbelievable event to fruition.

Before the event, the Imperial Adjudicator was actually in a depressive mood as he thought about his wife and daughter, sensing his own powerlessness as he simply watched as they were taken in front of his eyes!

Previously, he had made Alexander promise to take care of Anna whenever he made his way towards the Expansive Dragon Cl.u.s.ter, but that was only a desperate father using all means available as he thought about his family. He didnʼt really think Alexander would be able to make much of a difference even when it came to Anna, much less Anastasia.

Yet now…

”Ridiculous…”

His voice thundered out as in the starry space he was in, he wasnʼt alone as not too far from him, a sparring battle was going on that involved creatures nobody would have expected to see. The Imperial Adjudicator was watching the sparring of multiple Animus Summons that were the pets of beings at Lesser Realms than him, where even he had a new Animus Pet to his that shone with a regal countenance!

RAA! RAA! RAA!

The shout of a boisterous Emperor Penguin that was riding atop a Wyrm Water Dragon could be seen as he tangled with a valiant dark skinned woman backed by a six winged humanoid creature that released a shocking golden light!

”OOOH!”

The shout of a dark swordsman also resounded out as he led a Hellion Bull to smash into an enormous Panda that was being ridden by a Vampyre Queen!

Thatʼs right! The Imperial Adjudicator was shaking his head disbelievingly at the sight of multiple Animus Summons in the Infinite Galaxy, something only made possible because of the being that made this Infinite Galaxy come to life, the being he only thought to be a small genius!

In less than two weeks after the fusing of his Nexus Galaxy with this force, Alexei found himself stepping on the path of the Dao as he found other beings with even more talent than him do the same, terrifying strength being displayed as his wise eyes saw something many other people didnʼt see.

The Imperial Adjudicatorʼs eyes saw things in the span of a time period, and as he looked at the terrifying rate of growth that this new force he was a part of had...his despairing heart when it came to his family actually became bright again!

He knew that with the shocking and fantastical things he was seeing right now, it was actually possible for him to bring back his family in just a few tens or hundreds of years as he expected this force to grow into something rivaling Ancient Powers in that period of time.

Yet...even at this juncture, the Imperial Adjudicator didnʼt truly understand the new force that was led by the enigmatic Noah Osmont as he gave them tens or hundreds of years to grow into the same level as Ancient Powers that controlled the Dark Universe.

To Noah...even a few months was too much time!

RUMBLE!

In another location, a father was about to meet his daughter after many years as the atmosphere was actually not jovial, but rather oppressive!

Deep within the Expansive Holy Land, a gorgeous Holy Princess walked through the fantastical palace with the demeanor of an untouchable fairy as she went towards a certain area. It had been a few days since she had returned, and only now was she walking towards a certain place to see someone! Word of the return of the Holy Princess had made their rounds across the Expansive Dragon Cl.u.s.ter, a unique atmosphere descending down as this signified too many things.

But Anastasia ignored all of this as she moved forward steadfastly!

She passed through the mystical halls that were actually cloudy as they were filled with dense atmospheric essence that coagulated in the surroundings.

Anastasia only spent a few minutes before she passed through an archway that led into a paradisiacal garden, this garden being empty of everything but a single being that stood in the middle of it while staring at the overabundance of rare vegetation growing all around.

The man standing within the garden had a simple white robe, his built body being seen clearly even though he looked to be past his middle age as one could describe the aura he emitted with a single word- powerful!

”Father.”

Anastasia called out shyly as even her voice had a slight tremble, the elegance she normally showed not being present as she seemed like a simple daughter coming back to her father after she was caught doing something wrong!

The being who was called out to, the Holy Emperor turned towards Anastasia as a smile could be seen on his face, his body instantly warping at her position as he used his wide hands to stroke the crimson hair on his daughterʼs head.

”Little Ana, I heard youʼve actually given this old man a granddaughter.”

Anastasia nearly choked as she felt the strong hands of the only figure that caused her fear, as she felt immense love and affection from his words that she nearly jumped into his chest.

ʼMaybe...maybe things had changed?ʼ

She entertained a thought she thought to be impossible as she looked at her father that was looking at her lovingly, her words barely coming out.

”...yes, Annaʼs been looking forward to meeting you and mom.”

She spoke slowly as the Holy Emperor nodded, his voice resounding out once more as the moment it did, Anastasia gradually felt the tone of the voice change.

”Good, I want to see my granddaughter as well but…”

RUMBLE!

Immensely powerful and domineering waves were released the moment his ʼbutʼ ended, his smiling and loving gaze instantly disappearing as the majesty of a ruler filled with regality took its place!

”But you, as a Holy Princess of our Expansive Dragon Cl.u.s.ter...abdicated your duties as you believed your happiness was more important than the blood, sweat, and tears that multiple Entities and the past Sages have put in.”

…!

Anastasia looked up towards the expression on her fatherʼs face as her heart trembled, none of the love and happiness she saw prior was present, only an impassive countenance as a resounding voice continued.

”Even though you are my daughter, your identity as the Holy Princess comes first, and you ran away from your duties when you were needed most! You...have sorely disappointed me, Anastasia!”

RUMBLE!

Anastasia shook as she couldnʼt even look in the eyes of her father anymore, the coldness within it chilling her heart as she felt immense pain!

A heart wrenching scene!

”Because of your weakness, countless deaths have befallen our people, and now the task that you ran away from...will have to fall on your own daughter.”

…!!!

”No…”

Anastasiaʼs knees gave out as despair descended in, but only the cold countenance of a ruler with too many things on his shoulders met her gaze.

Two fathers and daughters across multiple locations. One was hopeful just to get back to his daughter and hold her again, another had reunited with their daughter as even though they loved each other very deeply, they were bound by even larger responsibilities that greatly strained their relationship!
