After going through the portal, Nero found himself in a small room. The Fallen did not have time to inspect the place since unbearable pressure assaulted him. 

Nero was able to detect the origin from the pressure immediately. It came from a fifteen-meter tall man with red hair, five dragon horns emerging from his head, two imposing wings bathed in a dark red fire, and a black aura surrounding his muscular body. 

As he saw this man, an illusion appeared in the Fallen's mind. He saw a gargantuan dragon, so immense that he could have swallowed the fish-like Being of Law that almost killed him a few minutes ago. 

This dragon had sixteen wings on his back, dark red scales covering his body, and flames emerged from his mouth with heat so immense that they set the laws of the universe on fire. 

Nero saw how this apocalyptic dragon turned his head and stared at him. The moment that happened, the illusion vanished, and the seven winged Fallen saw the draconic man looking in his direction.

The man stared at Apex and gave him a gentle nod before looking away. 

"Since your next guest has arrived, it is time for me to leave. I will relay your message to my brothers and inform you of our decision as soon as possible." The man's voice was full of ferocity, but you could hear the respectful tone he employed. 

"Are you sure you don't want to stay a little more? I was hoping we could play a game before you left."

After hearing those words, Nero noticed the person standing in front of the draconic man. He appeared to be an amicable old man with a ponytail and thick white beard.

His aura was non-exiting, and at simple sight, he appeared no different than a mortal.

"I have no desire to enter a contest I know I will lose. Goodbye." The draconic man performed a small bow and disappeared.

"How boring." Disappointment appeared in the old man's face when he saw the draconic man leave, and then he turned to Apex. 

"So you are the one called Apex. I can see that you have already entered the Beyond Redemption Stage. Good, if you were one of those cowards that did not dare to leave the Beyond Limit Stage, this meeting would have ended immediately."

Apex did not say anything after hearing the man's words and limited himself to performing a deep bow. 

It was easy for Nero to understand this older man's identity after everything that just happened.

'Is this seemingly helpless old man really one of the supreme overlords of the universe?.' After that thought passed through his mind, Nero saw how the old man focused on him and adopted a severe expression.

"Did you call me a helpless old man?"

Nero's eyes widened when he heard that, and shock filled his heart.

'Can he read my mind?'

"Yes, I can. Now I will ask again, did you call me a helpless old man?" 

Before Nero could even say a word, he saw an endless golden aura emerge from the old man that made the room along with Apex and Eve disappear. 

The seven winged Fallen felt the true nature of the golden aura immediately. It was killing intent, one so pure and majestic that it appeared capable of crushing the universe itself. 

While the dark red dragon impressed Nero, this aura was at a completely different level. 

The old man's killing intent continued to grow as he approached Nero, and when they were right next to each other, the Head of the Magi World, a Rank 9 life form, began to make funny faces. 

Nero's body shivered, and disbelief filled his face. The golden aura disappeared the next second, and the Fallen saw the old man laughing.

"Hahaha, relax, I am just messing with you." 

Eve and Apex stared at the old man as he laughed with all his strength. The woman just shook his head after seeing the Magi World's leader making fun of a little child.

"Head, you should act with more decorum, remember your position."

"Little girl, I have told you many times, the purpose of power is to do whatever you want." The old man gave Eve a kind smile before focusing on Apex and clasping his hands. 

"Issac, The Truth of the Universe, greets you."

Apex also clasped his hands and returned the gesture.

"Apex, The End of the Heavenly Race, greets you."

After the formalities were over, Issac made a chair appear and sat in it before speaking.

"Tell me, Fallen, why did you ask for this meeting."

"I want your assistance to let my race enter the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield."

When Issac heard Apex's request, his eyes narrowed, and he glanced at Nero for a moment.

"You know very well that all great powers of the universe have a Rank 8 life form monitoring those who enter and leave the battlefield, and that includes the Heavenly race. There is no way they would pass the chance of killing your kind."Apex did not say a word after hearing that and just kept looking at Issac.

"I can help your race, Fallen, but that would force me to fight against the Heavenly race and maybe even begin a small war. So, the price you will have to pay will be equally great."

"What will I need to do?." Apex did not accept immediately. Access to the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield was necessary for his people's growth, but his life was even more critical for the Fallen race.

"I will call you one day to fight by my side, and that day, you must be ready to lose your life if needed since I will be taking the same risk." An extremely solemn expression appeared on Issac's face when he spoke those words.

Apex was surprised when he heard that. The Head of the Magi World was mighty, and no one in the universe could say they could kill him. There was only one enemy in the Fallen's mind that could pose that level of threat to such a powerful being.

"The Great Old Ones?"

The moment Apex mentioned them, Eve's face became somber, and Issac nodded to the Fallen. 

"Has the state of the Final Gate deteriorated to the point even people like you are worrying about it?" Apex's voice was solemn as he spoke that question since it involved something that affected all the universe.

"Not yet, the runic formations in the gate still stand firm, but they are deteriorating at a fast rate. If my hypothesis is right, someone is exercising pressure from the other side. I have already warned the rest about the danger, but many think that the best path is to reinforce the gate's defenses and buy as much time as possible. They want to use the help of the Universe Will to fight them once they enter our universe and slowly erase them, even if that means to lose a considerable part of this one." Disdain appeared in Issac's face when he thought about that cowardly approach.

"We need to fight them head-on and not give them the chance to contaminate the universe." Issac's eyes shined with battle intent when he spoke those words, but the next moment, he sighed.

"Unfortunately, I am not strong enough to lead the entire universe. If only he were still here, things would have been much easier. His power and ferocity could make all of us tremble, and no one would dare to say no to him."

Isaac didn't need to mention his name for Apex and Eve to know who he was referring to, the man who could make the two great fiend planes of the universe tremble under his might. 

The trio felt an immense admiration for that person since he reached the level they all dreamed of obtaining. 

"If another Rank 8 life form is born in my race, I will accept following you to an all-out battle against them the moment they enter the universe." Apex shared Issac's feeling that slowly defeating them was the wrong path, but his life was not his own anymore; it belonged to his race.

The Head of the Magi World understood the Fallen's reservation, and he accepted his conditions for helping him. 

"Then it is a deal. From now on, your people can enter the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield under the Magi World's banner."

After agreeing to their deal's conditions, both Issac and Apex began to speak in a strange tongue that made a peculiar and powerful aura invade the room.

It was only present for an instant, but it was enough for the duo to understand that the consequences would be dire if they broke their words.

Once the purpose of their meeting was over, Issac looked at Nero with a smile.

"Little Fallen child, you made me laugh, so if your battle power reaches the Void Stage while you are still a Rank 6 life form, I will teach you my Omega Law."

Nero did not know what those words meant, but he understood it was very beneficial for him when he saw the smile on his teacher's face, so he immediately bowed and expressed his gratitude.

"I will do my best."

Apex nodded after seeing his apprentice's behavior, and after giving one final bow to Isaac, he took Nero and disappeared.
