RE:BORN Zombie

Chapter 167 - 167 End Times



167 End Times

The fight against Vargbond began, and everyone threw themselves into it without much of a care for their lives. There were ones that feared for their lives when faced with such a monster and naturally ran away, but for the majority, they had the guts to keep fighting. Naturally, those that ran never really made it out as they were caught up in the chaos.

After a long battle between the creature that came out of the gate and the inhabitants of earth, the battle came to an end, and of course earth won. They did not have all the major power houses for no reason.

Victor had in fact turn out to be somewhat of a figure head throughout the whole ordeal. He who normally would never be approached by any other person out of fear or other reasons was being cheered for. It was truly a scene.

Whilst fighting against the creature, Victor continuously ate from its flesh in order to evolve himself. Even though the fight took wo whole days of constant fighting with no breaks to end, it was only enough time for Victor to evolve only once even after all the evolution material he got from the creature. It was a strange one indeed.

The cheering and celebration carried on, but then, just when nobody expected it, a different much more smaller gate, or as it was, more like a portal, appeared behind Victor, maybe a couple of feet away.

No one even noticed it, not even those whose specialties was tracking could sense any fluctuations in the energy around. Before anyone could respond, a gush of wind blew into the portal, and magically only Victor was pulled in.

Although Victor also noticed nothing before and after the portal behind him appeared, he could feel the change in pressure as the wind suddenly formed before him. He tried to move out of the way, but his body wouldn’t move, causing him to be sucked, or rather pushed into the portal, and easily too.

On the other side of the portal was something, similar to a garden, the only difference was that there were no plants, instead several metallic looking materials stuck out and filled the entire place.

Victor froze for a split moment as he quickly took in and studied his new surroundings. The entire place looked quite peaceful and calm, so it really got him thinking of the reason why he was brought to the place.

.....

Like out of a dream, a man appeared from nonexistence right before Victor’s eyes some distance away.

To describe the feeling, it was as though the man who just appeared had always been there, but at the same time he wasn’t and just made his way there.

‘This… I can’t call him a man.. What is this person looking creature?’ Victor thought to himself.

“You must have a lot of thoughts going through your head.” The man said.

It was even a bit wrong to call the man a man, or human. He was at least something of a giant than a man, maybe half bred. From his gold, sapphire and white coloured majestic attire, one could tell that this was no ordinary man. From his clothes, style, and the presence he commanded, Victor could make out the fact that he was as strong as he himself thought.

Victor didn’t exactly respond, but even his normally stoic expression couldn’t remain so as in that split second, he felt something eerie like he had never felt before which caused a light frown to appear on his face. A slit second later, the man who stood some distance away from him appeared beside Victor and gently placed a hand on Victor’s shoulder, all too fast for even him to see, talk less of reacting to.

Victor felt the urge that ran through his entire body to react and evade danger, but his body wouldn’t move or respond to his will. ‘What is going on?’ Victor thought to himself. He was an undead, so it was impossible for him to feel fear, talk less of feeling it to the point where he is paralyzed by it, there had to be something else.

Then, for the second time, the man now beside him spoke, “you need not worry, this is my doing. It will be better like this so that we can converse smoother.” The man said.

Victor wasn’t impressed, it only showed how much weaker he was to the one beside him, and this also brought the question of who the man was exactly. It had been a very long time since he was so out classed, and he wasn’t delusional enough to doubt his opponent’s capabilities.

“Now that you are calm, why don’t we sit and converse?” The man said.

Like something he had never seen before, the space around them warped in a weird and fast way, but still natural, and they both were sitting on some kind of dining table that seemed exceptionally long.

“I do apologies for the late introductory, you may call me the 8th Ruler.” The man said before a brief pause ensued. Seeing as Victor had nothing to say, the man continued…

“I am the guardian and ruler of the 8th world…” He continued, as he explained on different things.

After confirming up to a satisfactory extent, Victor began asking questions as he listened to the man.

After a long while would have passed, the 8th ruler, as he introduced himself, was done with everything he needed Victor to know at the moment.

From what Victor was just told, there were nine worlds, and each one had a separate ruler guarding it, just like the one he was in at the moment had the 8th. These rulers are there to guard the different worlds, and under normal circumstances would never interfere with the happenings in the world, but obviously, as it always happens, something went wrong.

The 1st Ruler, according to the 8th ruler is the one behind all the instability happening all around the 9 worlds.

The reason for Dungeons and all appearing in the first place was to enable the rulers find the particular key they had been in search for, especially, the 1st. Most of the other worlds had fallen, and after they did so, collapsed and merged with the 8th realm.

Now, after all that has happened, the key they had been looking for had finally appeared, and luckily it appeared in the 8th realm and chose Victor, or so he was told.

“As the 1st has chosen this part, it’s only right for us to purge him.” The 8th said.

“There’s still a lot of details left out, I don’t completely understand.” Victor said.

“Worry not, you don’t need to at the moment, everything will open up as you go.” The 8th said.

Victor, deep down had prepared himself for anything that could happen. Gods don’t normally rely on humans, mortals, to do their works. There was only one possible reason then. It was totally possible that whatever power it was had chosen Victor, and this ruler just wanted to take it away from him.

But before he could express his mind, Victor got a response.

“I know what you may be thinking, and allow me to say you are wrong.” The 8th ruler said.

“What do you mean?” Asked Victor.

“If I really wanted the key, I wouldn’t be going through this process right now, or do you believe you can do anything against me?” The 8th said in a relaxed manner, although the last parts of his sentence sounded a bit threatening.

“Then…”

“It’s straight forward, a ruler cannot possess or use the key, it is literally impossible.”
