The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 594 Establishing order (II)

”Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.”

Gorkon bowed toward the emperor before turning toward Cain. He stared at the young man and although it seemed he wanted to say something, in the end, he only shook his head and left in silence along with his entourage.

Cain watched Gorkon flying away and could feel the conflict within the manʼs heart. The Patriarch understood that the Soul King was the true culprit behind everything that happened, but that did not erase the fact that the blood of the younger generation of his clan was on Cainʼs hands.

Although Cain was not someone to let loose ends, that did not mean he was also going to kill everybody who had conflicted feelings about him. Besides, it was not like he could defeat a True Titan, at least not yet.

Eon watched Gorkon leave before turning to the rest of the Patriarchs and focusing on Cain for a moment.

”Kabuto, Zuko, and Cain, you three will remain here. The rest head to your respective domains and put everything in order, preparing your armies for immediate mobilization if needed.”

The Patriarchs of the Artik Clan, Ursa Clan, and Aeolus Clan bowed to Eon before rising into the sky and flying away along with their people.

The warriors of the Solis Clan and Zanginis Clan bowed to their Patriarch and the emperor before rising to the sky and leaving as well. There were only four people left, Emperor Eon, Lord Kabuto, Lord Zanginis, and Cain.

Now that everybody was gone, Eon focused on Cain before speaking.

”Sun Avatar of the Solis Clan, you will lead me, Kabuto, and Zuko to the underground dungeon of the Umbra Clan.”

Eonʼs voice carried a profound tone, and the fact he referred to Cain by his identity as part of the Solis Clan meant he recognized this one as a member of the Deus Behemoth Empire. And that was not all as while Eon only needed Cain, he made sure to bring Zuko and Kabuto along, improving the stance of the young man.

Cain stared at the emperor for a moment, clasped his hands, and performed a deep bow.

”As you command, Your Imperial Highness.”

Lord Kabuto and Lord Zanginis smiled as they saw the connection between Cain and the Deus Behemoth Empire strengthening, and the status and background of this one rising beyond just his two clans.

The four did not waste time and they rose to the sky, with the emperor and the Patriarchs following after Cain as they left Amazon and headed to the periphery of the Bahamut Sector.

Although Eon, Kabuto, and Zuko did not use their full speed since they had to follow Cain, they did not have to contain much either as the young man was able to achieve a truly incredible speed thanks to his Astral Waveʼs abilities and mastery over the Laws of Space and Wind.

Less than thirty minutes later, Cainʼs eyes grew sharp as he focused on a lone mountain range in the distance.

”That is the place.”

Eon, Kabuto, and Zuko focused on the mountain range as they heard Cainʼs words, and their eyes began to glow. They were ready to unleash their Ego Waves, but the young man immediately intercepted them.

”Please, do not be rash. There are several contingency plans in that dungeon and if we make a mistake, the place is prepared to blow itself up and there will be nothing we can do to stop it.”

The emperor and the two Patriarchs froze as they heard those words. Although the culpability of the Umbra Clan was already sealed, they wanted to obtain as much proof as possible, and also rescue all the people inside the dungeon if they could.

”I assume you have a way to take care of those defensive mechanisms.”

Eon turned toward Cain and the expression on his face made it clear he was sure that the young man could handle that problem. It was subtle, but instinctively the emperor of the Deus Behemoth Empire began to see in the young human someone capable of fixing all his problems.

Cain only smiled as he nodded, and the next second his [A.I. Chip Module] came into action, with the [Pseudo Multidimensional Force Field] and the [Sub Quantum Hacking] tools fusing into an invisible and imperceptible force field that flooded into the dimension and began to deactivate all traps and fail-safes in place.

The power of Eonʼs perception was overwhelming, which was why he was so surprised to feel a unique force field coming from Cain. It was extremely subtle and if he had not been paying attention, he would not have detected it.

”Letʼs go. We can enter. I already deactivated all traps. There are some people inside guarding the place, but they are only Wave King and one Apotheosis Master.”

Eon and the Patriarchs did not even bother to quantify the guard in the place since even if Divine Ascension Masters were present, they could instantly overwhelm them.

Since there was no need to contain themselves anymore, the trio unleashed their Ego Wave. As they sent their willpower into the mountain, their eyes soon widened as they detected a place dozens of thousands of meters underground, hidden with all sorts of cloaking formations.

A cold light appeared in Eonʼs eyes as he pointed his index finger at the mountain range and the next second a tiny beam of energy was shot.

”BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!”

Cainʼs eyes widened as he saw how that beam of energy, less than a finger wide, evaporated the mountain range and generated a massive crater that blasted open the ceiling of the Umbra Clan Secret Dungeon.

ʼAmazing!ʼ

Cain couldnʼt help but gaze at Eon with awe, as that attack not only had overwhelming destructive power, but the energy control over it was sublime. Despite generating an explosion, there were no shockwaves, and the destruction was limited to the surface of the secret dungeon, not harming the inside or the people in it.
