Chapter 742: Darkseid’s Dark Past
“For how long will you keep fighting, Darkseid!?”
“Your generals have fallen, and your so-called undefeatable armies have already withdrawn from the battle.”
“What are you still fighting for in the end? Do you really want to die here?” The powerful voice boomed through the space, which was filled with collapsed stars, strange anomalous rifts, and crumbled spaces all over.
There were fragments of stars floating around the place, giving insight into the type of destruction that had formerly occurred in the area, and truly, it left much to the imagination.
“HAHAHAHAHA!” Loud laughter boomed through the void of space, coming from none other than a figure who seemed to be the incarnation of destruction itself.
It was a muscular, armored figure with a futuristic, almost organic-looking design.
The figure’s head was bald, with a metallic sheen, and glowing red eyes brimming with destructive power.
In his bulky hands and slumped over his shoulder was an incredible axe, forged from the same metallic substance as the figure’s armor, with sharp angular blades that faintly glowed with the same red energy present in the figure’s eyes.
On his face, he held disdain as he stared down at the seven figures before him, who were none other than Lord Thanos and his remaining six guardians.He was none other than Darkseid, the supreme devil lord of the other realm.
The aura oozing out of his body was beyond powerful, and even though his armies had all been sent back or killed, and he was the only one remaining, the power he exuded was still nothing to be scoffed at.
It was like he alone was enough to substitute for an entire army. That was just how much the incredible aura oozing out of his being felt like.
Slowly, the scoff on Darkseid’s face was wiped out, followed by a vengeful grin.
“Six thousand years ago, this scene right before us had happened.”
“My bloodline, known for their invading power, had come to your realm just like it had done to countless others.”
“This scene repeated itself exactly 6,000 years ago when my father’s mighty army fell into your treacherous hands.”
“His death was simple, betrayed by his own people after getting fooled by your own father.”
“So for 3,000 years, I did nothing but train solo. Day after day, I forged myself to rival an entire army that my father controlled, until today, I felt it was time.
“I of course expected to be abandoned by my one army, and I prepared for it.”
And now, the true war is just beginning…” Darkseid said as his left hand stretched to the side, and another axe equally as large and powerful slipped onto his second hand.
He could still remember the agony of that day.
He had been nothing but a young boy who had sneakily followed his own father to the invasion, but he had watched as the entire army turned their back against his own father.
The ploy had been very simple, and only Darkseid saw through it.
The father of Lord Thanos, the bastard standing before him, when he found out that his army wouldn’t be able to win and was crumbling under the might of his father, had decided to trick everyone.
He had activated a secret technique that boosted all of his power to close to a hundred times what it regularly was.
This had been enough to make the man go from the Undying realm to touching the sphere of the Pseudo-god realm, and such an aura had been enough to scare his father’s army so much they had retreated back into the space hole, just like how his own army had currently done.
With the power of his army gone, his father had been quickly overwhelmed by the entire army and killed, and the so-called Lord Thanos’s father had died just 100 years later, a repercussion of the secret art that he had cast.
In reality, the technique that the bastard of a father had cast was the same as detonating his core, but instead of using it to commit suicide, he had been able to keep it in his body and boost his power to an unbelievable level.
Yes, it boosted only the aura and not the power, and Lord Thanos’s father couldn’t have used his power.
But such a move was enough to do the trick and send everyone back, leaving only his father’s line, and that had resulted in his death.
That was why ever since then, Darkseid had lost trust even in his own race.
He had fought and battled, climbing his way up the ranks until he finally ascended the throne like his father.
But he was different. Compared to his father, who relied on teamwork and seemed a great commander, Darkseid was a warrior who could take on an entire army head-on, unlike his father.
That was why even though they had all been battling for hours now, on a 7-to-1 ratio, Darkseid was still standing with a confident smirk.
Today, he would do what his father had failed to do a thousand years ago.
Bringing down the entire opposing army with his sole power.
Once he had successfully invaded this world before him, he would go back and wipe out every devilish warrior that ever ran away from the battle, before raising another army of mighty warriors born from his own genes with both the females of his race and the enemy’s race.
He would create more of his own self, and the bloodline of domination would continuously grow…
VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Suddenly, silence reigned in the void of space as an incredibly bright astral light flashed forward from the distance with incredible speed, quickly covering the distance, and slowly it stopped, floating gently until it arrived behind Lord Thanos and among the remaining six guardians.
“You have done a good job, Star Guardian, and you will be finely rewarded. Now, all that is left is this last blockade before us…”
