Chapter 44 - The Strongest Abyssal

In a mysterious location, 8 Abyssals were seated around a table. They were the five Abyss Kings and three Abyss Queens.

They were the nightmares of humans, from Mercury to Neptune. They were the strongest Abyssals. They too surpassed the power of level 9 and were equivalent to Sovereigns.

The Kings were at least 8 feet tall and the Queens at least 7. There were three vertical marks on their forehead, which every Level 9 Abyssal had plus a star mark.

This star was their unique symbol.

The strange thing was they left were seated on either side of the table but left a single unseated chair in the middle.

The unoccupied chair was also more luxurious and higher than the one they sat on. On it was a large mirror.

The Thunder Abyssal King of Thunder Abyss, connected to Neptune, said, "Demon King, I heard Enigma stole a low altar and the cross tunneling formations from an Abyss Lord?"

The Demon Abyssal King of Demon Abyss, connected to earth, gritted his teeth and replied, "That bitch. Yes. She keeps running all around the place. How does she escape the Abyss Will?"

No one answered.

Each Abyss had an Abyss Will. None could catch Enigma. They all wanted to kill Enigma, but she hid from all the Abyss Wills.

Demon King's voice turned low "If I knew how… the Holy Altar would still be safe."

The atmosphere turned dull when "Holy Altar" was brought up. Everyone in the room had a tense expression on their face. They should protect their Abyss's Holy Altar at all costs.

Demon King clenched his fist and sighed. Just by that action, the air in his palms exploded and sent shock waves enough to kill a Level 4 Awakener.

"It's my sin." He sighed and slumped in his chair.

The Water Abyssal Queen of Water Abyss, connected to Venus, yawned and said, "So, Old Man, you are compensating for the sin?"

"Yes. Don't take my place. I'll convince His Majesty." Demon King looked at his equals and spoke with a serious face.

He was an awakener of Body path. So his physique was the strongest in the room. His brawny physique and rough done would've intimidated others, but his peers were monsters in their own right.

"Alright."

"If you say so."

Demon King was extremely grateful and was about to thank them when a light flashed from the mirror on the empty chair.

The Abyssal Kings and Queens, the power ceilings of Earth, the nightmares of humanity, stood up, bowed their heads and put their hand on their heart position for the imperial salute.

"Welcome, your Majesty."

"Sit." A magnetic voice sounded from the mirror.

An Abyssal appeared in the mirror. He was seated on a luxurious throne and wore purple clothes.

He was at least 9 feet tall and looked at them silently.

Even though he was present on the other side, millions of light years away, he exuded an aura of majesty that demanded respect and submission.

The Abyssal Kings felt veneration from the bottom of their hearts. The Abyssal Queens felt a burning fire in their eyes, but quickly suppressed it.

They weren't worthy of him. He only loved his Empress.

The strangest part was 'His Majesty' had no marks on his face.

Abyssals from Level 1-3 had marks on their chins, level 4-6 on their cheeks and 7-9, including Abyssal Kings on their foreheads to indicate their level.

But the Emperor of all Abyssals had none. He was different. Special. Unique.

He said unhurriedly, "How is the Cross Tunneling Mission taking place?"

Thunder King replied "We've occupied 5% of low level Dungeons on Neptune. 66 Level 3 Genius students were killed."

Despair Queen replied "We've…."

One by one, everyone presented their performance report.

Demon King replied the last "We've occupied 30% of low level Dungeons on Earth. 100 Level 3 Geniuses were killed."

Everyone looked at him in surprise. The pace was highest, despite Earth having a lot of dungeons.

The Abyssal Emperor, on the other side of the mirror, raised an eyebrow but made no special comments.

"Anything important to report before we proceed to the main mission?" He asked.

Thunder King nodded and said, "Your Majesty, 'He' is growing stronger every day. I'm afraid…"

"No worries. Let him gather all the six artifacts. However strong he grows, he won't be able to escape my palm." The Abyssal Emperor said curtly. His tone allowed no refusal.

"Yes, my ignorance." Thunder King bowed. He wasn't dissatisfied. Abyss Emperor's decisions were always right. He was their saviour. Their hope.

"Your majesty, we can conquer the solar system if you allow us. We now have spies and some control over humanity, unlike our first war. This time, even the Heaven's Will suppression on us won't save their lives in bunkers." Despair Queen of Despair Abyss, associated with Uranus, said.

"Please give us a chance."

"Like Pluto, we'll take down their planets one by one."

"We'll fulfill our mission."

"...please."

The other seven nodded and voiced their agreements.

"Enough. You know why Pluto is conquered." Abyss Emperor said, and the room turned silent.

"Any direct confrontation would kill millions, if not billions, of your fellow Abyssals. Will you answer their families?" Abyss Emperor glared at them as he spoke word by word.

"If humans are our only enemy, I'd still do it. It's better to pay the short-term painful price to secure victory. But humans aren't even our main enemy. We must win the battle with humans, but not at the cost of losing our war."

The rulers of the eight Abysses clenched their fists as each of his word pierced their heart.

"We don't have to wage a full scale war to destroy humans." There was a glint in Abyss Emperor's eyes.

"Let them be distracted by our movements in the Dungeons. Speed up the steps and we'll be victorious with the least bloodshed."

The Abyss rulers nodded.

Abyss Emperor glanced at Demon King and asked, "Did you find it?"

"Yes, your majesty." Demon King stood up and nodded.

"So who is willing to pay 10% of their lifespan to accomplish this mission?" Abyss Emperor asked.

"Me."

"This life is for Abyss Race. let me contribute."

"I want to contribute too."

"..."

All 8 Abyss Rulers raised their hands.

Demon King looked at them and gritted his teeth. 'You bastards. Lying so blatantly to this old man. Fine! I'll still be the one to retrieve it and atone for my sin.'

"I'll send my clone as well." Abyss Emperor disappeared, and the mirror dimmed, leaving behind only his magnetic voice.

"His majesty is so kind. He is even sending his clone."

"If not for him, we'd never have found the way to save our race."

"If not for him, we'd be like stupid villains in human novels and believe that sending dungeons to earth would be enough to kill humanity."

The praises continued, and the atmosphere was full of hope.

They were confident in their victory at the expense of human extinction.

What they didn't know was the one with the potential to stand against them was banging his head in a hospital.

"My memory is not altered? Then what about those dreams?"
