The God Emperor had been having a bad premonition these past few days for no particular reason.
He found it strange since he doesn’t really remember doing anything that should’ve made him feel this way…except of course the fact that he’s hunting down the location of the Divine Realm, but that couldn’t have been the reason right?
There’s no way that he would be this alarmed just because he decided to deal with puny humans, they’re weak and undeserving of such providence, what he’s doing is something in the likes of taking a toy from a baby.
Humans are way too weak to even put a dent to their defenses so they can’t be the reason why he’s having this bad premonitions.
If he’s going to venture a guess, it should be coming from the pesky things that have been harassing his fodders, yes that makes more sense to him.
The God Emperor already received reports from his henchmen that there were a group of assassins targeting his expedition troops and they’re doing a good job at stalling their search.
Apparently, they’re good at stealth operations. His henchmen are doing their best to track them down to no avail at this point. They were so good that even Skroll was having a hard time against them.
That alone is sufficient reason for him to believe that the real challenge comes from these mysterious creatures and not humans. The God Emperor refuses to believe that humans are capable of doing this much to them. They’re weak and that’s final. Nothing can change his mind.
“Hmm?”
The God Emperor suddenly opened his eyes as he sat down on his throne. He felt some sort of a commotion not to far from where he is.
He scattered his observation and his vision penetrated through the walls of his palace and saw what going one floor beneath him.
“Foul Trespasser! Halt your advances! This isn’t a place where the likes of you should be around!”
The guards surrounded a man who revealed a clam smile despite being threatened.
“Boys, calm down will you? I’m all about the warm reception but really, there’s no need to be this happy to see me. I’m just a nobody.”
“Halt, I say! You shan’t move any closer!!” The guard captain roared in fury, drawing out his own weapon to raise his intimidation to the maximum.
“Oh, come on. Don’t be like that. I’m just a random visitor. Look the other way will you? Just treated me like air, no need to stress yourselves with good ol’ me.” The man dismissively waved his hand and didn’t bother pausing his steps.
The guard captain finally had it. He raised his spear and stabbed forward, the sheer strength of his blow forcefully twisted the space around him. The momentum carried by his strike should be enough to shatter a planet or two.
But to everyone’s surprise, the man just sighed and raised a finger to block the strike.
Every guard choked on their spit. They know how strong their captain was, he wouldn’t be promoted in his position without sufficient ability. Yet it seems that the man isn’t so simple either.
With just a single finger, the man not only blocked the captain’s strike with his full strength, he also nullified the momentum and impact aftermath of the strike, reducing it to nothing but just a regular swing.
“My, that was quite a strike there! Well done! With you around, the security of this place wouldn’t be threatened. Continue the good work, Captain. Your leader should increase your salary.”
The man’s words sounded nice and genuine but to their ears, it’s no different from humiliating and mocking words. He even patted the shoulder of the captain who’s brain is still reeling in shock from what just happened.
While they’re still shocked, the man unceremoniously walked past them and went up to the next floor. The guards finally got over their initial shock and tried to pursue the man, sadly before they could do so, their path was blocked by something they cannot see.
They tried forcing their way in, attacking the invisible barrier with everything they had but none of their attacks even left a scratch on it. At this point, they could only admit their failure.
The God Emperor will really chew them out this time. But that maybe a story for later…
When the man arrived to the next floor, the one where the God Emperor resided, he looked around in curiosity and admired the grandiose look of this place.
Then his eyes peeled away from scene and focus on the pair of eyes looking at him at the other side of the room.
The God Emperor and the stranger met gazes and had a brief staring contest. It didn’t last though since the God Emperor felt a sharp sting on his mind which fouled his mood even further.
“It’s a bad etiquette to forcefully impose your influence over a guest’s mind the moment you saw each other. But since this is your first offence, I’ll only let you suffer that much. Try it again and I might just devour large chunks of your memories. You wouldn’t want that, would you?”
The God Emperor’s nostril flared in annoyance. He glared at his unknown guest, slight baffled by the audacity of this man but he reigned in his impulses and asked:
“State your name and purpose for coming here, Human. I don’t recall giving you an invitation.”
“My purpose? Hmm…nothing much really.” The man stated in a rather amused tone. “I just thought that this place looked rather nice so I decided to pay it a visit. You don’t mind do you?”
“I do mind, actually.” The God Emperor snorted, “I usually let lesser creatures step foot into my yard.”
“Oh, is that so?” The man looked visibly offended and quite sad by that, but then he suddenly smiled and said: “Too bad I don’t care.”
And just like that, the man proceeded to ignore the God Emperor’s presence around the room and decided to look around, still admiring the aesthetics of this place.
The God Emperor felt rather refreshed actually. He unknowingly started to recall; when was the last time there was someone showed this much audacity in front of him. Even going as far as ignoring his presence, treating like nothing but air or a background noise.
It’s quite hilarious actually since it has truly been a while, and out of all creatures that would dare to do this to him, it had to be a puny humans. This can’t get any funnier than this.
Unfortunately…he’s not amused.
“Human!”
“Yes?” The man replied without looking at him. Causing the God Emperor to pop a vein in his head.
“Aren’t you being disrespectful but purposefully ignoring me? Do you want to die?”
The man stared at the God Emperor, looking at him like he’s some kind of an idiot or something:
“What? You’re expecting me to kneel down in front of you and kiss your feet? Sing you flowery poems of flattery when you and your kind are literally scouring every corner of this are to search for my home so that you can eradicate us and take our luck to fulfill your own selfish needs?”
“Are you pretending to be stupid or you’re straight up fucked in head? Which one is it?”
The God Emperor’s face turned wretched when he heard those words. Again, it’s been a while since someone dared to criticize him this much, and human of all things, did it!
His patience truly couldn’t endure this anymore. So he decided that it’s time to deal with this pest once and for all.
The God Emperor snorted and waved his hand.
This simple gesture caused a disastrous effect though. The space twisted and time turned chaotic. The void suddenly thrummed with power and attempted to swallow the man whole.
Absolute Control over the Void. This is one of the abilities that the God Emperor has. Whenever he used this, things tend to end rather quickly but not this time around.
“Ai, such a rude host!” The man sounded annoyed. He then waved his hand and to the God Emperor’s absolute shock, the void suddenly dissipated like a cloud of smoke.
“Seriously, do you now know basic decency as a Host? I’m a guest here you know? I deserve respect!”
The God Emperor wasn’t even able to refute that since he still couldn’t get over the fact that his ability was nullified just like that.
Unparalleled anger and trepidation filled the God Emperor’s chest. Now, he’s starting to realize his own stupidity. He might be arrogant down to the last bone but he’s not stupid.
If this human, a creature that he deemed unworthy and weak, could nullify his attack with little to no effort, this means that this guy is so much more than he’s letting on.
In his wrath, the God Emperor hesitate to use his full strength for his next attack – which is, by the way, enough to cause the whole tower they’re on to shake so much.
But beneath the smoke and rubble caused by his full-powered strike, the God Emperor heard the regretful voice of this damned human.
“Aww…you ruined the pretty room. You’re such a bad person.”
