Chaos Devourer System

Chapter 746: Meeting With An Old Friend[Please Read This Chapter After This Before Coming Back Here]

“You’ve reached the Undying Rank!? Wow, that was fast. I thought you would simply be like yourself and spend your remaining useless years getting drunk and taking care of that virgin status of yours.”

“But here you are, looking stronger than before. I’m impressed…” the system said with a faint smirk.

Truly, it was surprised that Zeras had grown this much.

“And how far have you grown, traitorous bastard? Still lurking around uselessly in my soul space?” Zeras asked with a raised eyebrow, to which the system simply smiled and said nothing more.

“How did you get your hands on a relation of mine? Never thought you would ever meet one of my own so soon…” the system said as it looked at Darkseid, who was still on his knees, and it came as a surprise to Zeras.

Darkseid had a resemblance to the system, who was a Chaos Devourer.

“He is an enemy of mine…” Zeras replied as he walked past the Chaos Devourer system and appeared before the kneeling Darkseid, his hand resting on his head.

A shocking amount of astral power started surrounding Zeras’s palm.

Zeras’s soul itself held his Soul Stars, and when he was in his normal form, he was able to directly use their power more easily than he did with his soul.

Eliminating Darkseid right now was as easy as breathing for Zeras.

He could faintly guess why Darkseid had come into his soul space, and it was because of his greed.

He wanted Zeras’s body for himself, and in such a way found himself in Zeras’s absolute control.

Now he was eternally screwed and doomed to his own death.

“His bloodline might have been impure through the ages, but I can sense his bloodline is regressing to the original bloodline.

The bloodline of one of my own battle companions. He’s useful…” the system said as Zeras’s hand oozing with power stopped for a breath before he scoffed and the power in his hand momentarily increased, causing Darkseid’s soul body to turn hot red and slowly melt away under the brutal star power.

“You’re just saying that because you know him from before…” Zeras replied.

He could understand what the system was implying. It was essentially telling him to let Darkseid live.

Zeras had already planned to kill Darkseid, and the system tried to convince him not to do so by saying Darkseid was useful.

Zeras didn’t see the use in an enemy who almost killed him and now tried to take away his soul body.

“If you keep his life, Zeras, you gain a mighty war veteran as a companion of yours. If he is an enemy of yours, you should have seen his power.

And I can tell you that he has even yet to realize 50% of his potential. Now that he is at your mercy, sparing his life would mean having a warrior under your wings.

With your calamity coming in just a single more year and a few months, having him by your side might give you some bit of hope.

At least it will be better than you fighting…” the system was saying when…

“NOOOOOOOOOOO!”

BAAAAAAAAANG!

A powerful aura undulated out through the soul space as Zeras passed all of his soul power into Darkseid’s body until it reached a stage where his body couldn’t take the influx of power anymore and it instantly exploded.

Now in the soul space was none other than the crouched Zeras and the system whose mouth was still open from its talking, but it soon closed it back as it watched Zeras stand up and walk towards it, his shoulder brushing past his, and he sat on his throne before shutting his eyes close.

“I will fight my calamity… alone!” Those were Zeras’s last words before he went rigid and disappeared, a sign of his consciousness having moved back onto his body.

“How interesting….”

____________________

In the outside world, the entire group could still watch as both Zeras and Darkseid simply hung in the air, and they knew well the battle was ongoing but Darkseid had now taken it to the soul form.

Since he was already winning the physical battle, he could only have taken it to the soul because he plans on taking Zeras’s soul for himself.

And Lord Thanos knew why. It could only be because Darkseid wanted Zeras’s body for himself.

Of course, Thanos had seen the potential Zeras’s body had, literally becoming close to undying.

That was power any greedy bastard like Darkseid would definitely want.

“It’s almost done. It’s almost done…” Lord Thanos said as his hands, forming the runes, flipped around faster and faster until finally in front of him was a cubic golden box, which was oozing with a bountiful amount of light and after a few seconds…

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPLE

A powerful ripple spread forth from the box as Lord Thanos screamed out…

“NOW!”

VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

It was like a powerful storm appeared in shape as figures erupted forth from the concealed space and rapidly raced towards the two unmoving bodies.

It was at the exact same time when Zeras’s eyes snapped open and he bore witness to a pair of hands instantly grabbing him and disappearing into the far distance with him.

And in the next instant, Lord Thanos gave the undulating box in the air before flinging it forward towards Darkseid’s body.

“Prison Realm! Secure!” he roared out immediately as the box slammed on Darkseid’s body and in the next instant, a hand seal was formed by Lord Thanos, causing the box to suddenly spread apart.

Immediately, a cage surrounded Darkseid’s body, and hundreds of chains surrounded Darkseid’s body before immediately it closed up, sealing up Darkseid, and the cube gently floated in the void of space.

In the next instant, Lord Thanos moved and grabbed the box, his eyes closing as he shared the same gaze as the box and found Darkseid floating among the chains.

But his eyes narrowed when he felt Darkseid wasn’t breathing at all.

Turning to his side, he saw his guardian arrive before him with the storm guardian holding up the half-body of Zeras who was looking at the cube in Lord Thanos’s hand.

“Don’t waste it on him. He’s already dead…”

“WHAT!!!?”
