Chapter 795 The Situation Behind The Scenes

As Varian was about to embark on a non-stop teleportation journey, his comm suddenly lit up.

< Are you leaving? We should be there any minute.>

Varian wanted to refuse and leave right away. But he thought of the current situation and wondered how long it'd take for things to settle down, if ever, and decided to at least have a proper farewell.

Exactly forty-six seconds later, Kyle and Maya stood in front of Varian, both panting heavily.

"I know you're about to do something dangerous, but take care!" Kyle gave him a hug and looked at him with pitying eyes.

Varian broke the hug and said. "I'm not going to die."

"But you always end up in something big." Kyle pointed out with a wry smile.

Maya nodded with a pout. She didn't like Varian risking his life. But there wasn't much she could do about it.

That was the path he chose and he'd walk it no matter the end. Just like her, the CTF project she poured her heart, soul, and time into was now a complete waste due to the close of Abysses.

"If there's anything we, no, Tom can help you with, please don't hesitate," Maya said with a pleading gaze.

Varian nodded to soothe her worry.

Kyle and Maya continued to look at him with pitying gazes as if they were seeing a warrior going to his last war.

'Don't give me that look.' Varian's lips twitched and he changed the topic. "I don't have much time. See ya guys!"

He turned around to leave, but Kyle grabbed his hand and placed a storage ring in his palm.

"Don't use it for fighting. It explodes. But you can move around in it and it can help you with the defense." Kyle explained with an embarrassed expression.

Varian scanned the full body armor and raised a brow. Kyle was working on mecha. It seemed like he was going somewhere with the project. But of course, he didn't plan to use it.

"I…" Maya looked at Varian with a tearful gaze.

She worked hard. Really hard to get the CTFs running. But with all her hard work going down the drain, Maya was hit hard.

"I'm sorry, my CTFs are useless. Totally, utterly useless." Maya lowered her head and whimpered.

Varian sighed inwardly. Maya was his friend, a little sister of sorts.

But what was even more hurting was someone working so hard, pouring their heart and soul into something, only for it to fail due to the intervention of a third party.

'That's my fucking childhood.'

Putting that thought aside, Varian decided to cheer her up "You helped me a lot already. Without your CTF, the world would've been over and I'm not even kidding! So, don't beat yourself up. Your invention already saved the world.

What if it can't work now? CTFs must have other uses. They can't take you from dungeon to abysses, but maybe dungeons to dungeons?"

Maya raised her head and looked at him in surprise. She nodded, but her expression wasn't bright. "Their spaces are connected. But it's not helpful."

Varian stretched out his hand and said. "I'll ask Boo if he can do anything about it."

Even though she held no hope, Maya gave him all the CTFs she had before sending him a code she had just scribbled down. "This is a summary about the inter-dungeon travel. Boo can understand it."

Varian accepted her gift and stepped into the formation.

With Bali ruling the planet, he didn't have to worry about their safety. He could focus on the situation at hand.

The holy altar of the Despair Abyss shone with a brilliant light. Concurrently, the altars in the Abyss absorbed the aura crystals and channeled the power into the holy altar.

The space around the altar shook violently before it was torn apart with purple energy and a space portal formed above the altar.

A red light flashed and the portal dimmed. The next second, the underground hall went dark.

With the sound of steady footsteps, an Abyssal stepped out of the portal and it closed shortly.

The Abyssal's red eyes shone in the darkness before the hall lit up.

The man was revealed to be in a red uniform with a skull pattern—the uniform of the most fearsome knight order of the now fallen Blood Province.

Due to the interstellar journey, the Abyssal's body was heavy and his face was impossibly pale.

If it was a normal human or abyssal, facing such a condition, they'd faint without resistance.

But this Abyssal not only stayed fully awake, he even used his powers and moved out of the Abyss in a few minutes.

Once he stepped out, he saw two tiny shining stars and the shining smaller dots.

The Solar System.

"This is the place with the legacy?" The Abyssal's lips curled into a smile.

His gaze was like a sharp blade that pierced through. Even though he did nothing, just the bloodlust he unconsciously emitted was more than most of the level 9s.

"It'll be over soon."

After giving one last glance, he returned to the castle and started to recuperate.

This time, the Emperor went above and beyond to ensure Humanity's complete destruction.

What the humans were seeing was just the beginning.

The holy altar in the Hollow Abyss gave off a bright light before an Abyss in a red cloak appeared.

A hologram of Hollow Queen greeted him and the Abyss in the red cloak nodded.

Even though they were from the other side, Hollow Queen heard rumors about this 'person'.

"I've arranged the quarters and resources. Rest well before the time comes."

Two maids stepped forward and showed him the way.

The cloaked figure seemed to nod, but before they could guide him, he stared at Hollow Queen.

"Him. Where is his information?" The cloaked figure's voice was deep and the moment he uttered his first word, the air around him turned blood red.

"I've sent it to your room. Everything we've known about him so far. And everything we could buy about him." Hollow Queen gestured.

The cloaked figure reached his resting room and stared at the hologram of the man on the desk.

The man he must kill at any cost.

An eighteen-year-old.
