My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death-Chapter 745 The Power Of The Ancient Goddess Of Beasts

-----

Frank quickly moved forward in the outside world, as he rushed across the debris of the Arena, jumping around, and chasing down the presence of the Emperor, the malignant darkness that he emanated was not easy to miss. He quickly found himself in the underground area of the arena, where the prizes for the tournament were saved. Finding the corpse of a guard that had stayed inside the arena, it seemed that his body was fine, but his soul was nowhere to be seen… the Emperor had simply sucked the soul out of him.

"There…!"

Frank ignored the corpse after looking it faintly, rushing forward into an enormous open gates, finding not only a storage, but another door leading even further below the storage… Just what was this place?

He felt the malicious darkness emanating from the Emperor growing stronger, as he covered himself with bright light to fight against the strong dark element, rushing all the way down and finding what looked like ancient underground ruins in the sewers of this city.

"Pretty, isn't it?"

The voice of the Emperor resonated within the surroundings of this dark area, as Frank's divine aura illuminated it, as he found a deep shadow expanding around him, as if trying to reach up to him but failing as his light was too bright for these shadows to pierce through.

"These are the ruins of the ancient civilization that once governed these lands."

The shadows continued to spread, trying to pierce through Frank's powers… but he was unmovable.

"And below them… wanna guess it? even more ruins… and more and more… Humans continue to amuse me. Despite having born as one, I can't help but feel detached from them." Said the Emperor. "After all, I've always been a vastly superior existence to them."

"Have you considered it? Joining me? If you do, I'll give you powers you've never imagined… I just have to get my memories back and I will be able to do many things I've never been able to do before…"

"This world and its people… It's all meaningless, they're merely resources for me to harvest. You, as someone as powerful as me can understand that, right? How weak, pathetic, and insignificant life is compared to us… Right?"

"I'll open the gates… And the real challenge will begin at long last… You're not answering so I can assume you won't join me, right? Hm, I don't have my complete memories, but whoever was your father… you're very similar to him. Stubborn, foolish, childish… You're really his son…"

"…"

"What's wrong? Did a cat bite your tongue?"

"Is that all you've gotta said? I was trying to figure out something, but I think I did." Sighed Frank.

"Huh?!"

FLAAAAASH!

And Frank gathered energies within his Cosmic Arm, cosmic power suddenly generated what looked like a small rip in space and time, a black hole! The black hole rapidly started to absorb the darkness, as the Emperor realized that through Frank, the power of the Goddess of Beast was flowing through him!

<br/>"W-What? The power of the Goddess of Beasts?!"

"I figured out why I wasn't able to deal damage to you, its all about composition. Your phantasmal body is made out of the power of this world, I just needed an equally strong power originated from this world… How about the power of the goddess you loathed so much?"

"Y-You bastard!"

The Emperor roared angrily, as his darkness was absorbed by Frank, completely consumed! But just as Frank guessed, this was a mere decoy… the Emperor wasn't even here.

"Y-Youu…! Haha… No matter what, this was merely a clone! You won't even be able to get where I am before its too late…" Said the Emperor's voice, constantly growing fainter. "I will awaken the demon, acquire the power that belongs to me, open the gates, and revive my true self!"

FLASH!

And with that, Chaos consumed the dark clone of the Emperor in a matter of seconds, the power he had was of pure Malice, a strong energy generated by the malicious thoughts and negativity of humanity. It seems the Emperor harvested this power from the suffering of humans and gained tremendous power through it.

Extinguishing all humans meant that he would be able to reap the biggest quantity of darkness and malice he could, growing strong enough to be able to open the gates somehow, but that failed miserably as his demon was stopped by the goddess.

Now, he'll attempt something different, using the powers he had amassed from the Goddess' soul fragments alongside the Time Stone, he would finally begin the plan he has been planning for all this time.

"I gotta hurry then…" Said Frank, as his sharp eyes gleamed with bright divine light. His entire soul and his divinity realm had already progressed several Ranks thanks to the energy he got from the Emperor, and he felt even stronger than before.

…

The Emperor's body opened his eyes. He seemed slightly frustrated, his plan to get Arthurious body failed, but he acquired something still in the Stone of Time, a powerful relic that somehow got in the hands of a foolish aristocrat that used it as a prize for a new tournament this year.

Using the powers of his shadows, he teleported the stone with him, as he stood up from his throne, finding the stone on his right hand. A smirk emerged on his lips as his eyes flashed with bright red light.

"My Emperor, it failed?"

"Were you unable to find the new body?"

"What happened?"

The many servants he had around him all seemed surprised.

"Indeed, I was unable to acquire a youthful body, but those are little details. The stone is within my possession." The Emperor smiled as he looked into the gray-colored crystal, which emanated a powerful aura of time.

He quickly moved towards the altar underground through the usage of his Shadow Traveling Spell, reaching there with his servants, as an enormous altar in front of him, resembling a monolith emerged within his sight.
