The Veilwalker-Chapter 342: Awakening The Visitor

Alex hadn’t had the time to focus on a stranger when he had a lot to deal with.

Even now, he hadn’t begun his plan for protecting the empire. However, with the forces of the empire and that of The Order handling the void creatures, he could move forward.

"This is it." Zol gestured to the planet floating before them. "There have been no new updates even till this point."

Beside him was Alex, Mason, Charlotte, Evelyn and a few others from The Order. These hunters were here either because they had some familiarity with the visitor or were there to boost their numbers.

With all of them juiced up by Alexander, they were no longer their former selves. Each one of them had become incredibly strong, far surpassing anyone else in the same realm.

"Let’s proceed." Alex nodded and flew towards the planet under the guild of Zol.

The planet itself didn’t have much as it was used purposely for storage and research. Aside from the plant, animal and water life, there was barely anything happening.

Inside the facility, the hunters moved straight to the area holding the sleeping hunter.

Alex came to stand before the viewing glass that revealed the chamber where the Catwoman lay.

Because of the ice surrounding her, the room’s temperature reached absurd levels of cold that beings below C-Tier would freeze to death.

’There is barely any trace of laws within her ice shell.’ Alex observed with a calm gaze. ’She hasn’t grasped the laws yet, and her soul is exposed to manipulations.’

Like he had figured, if he could manipulate the soul of any being by bypassing the shell, then it was possible to make that shell even more robust.

That was exactly what Alex had done to himself and those close to him. It took a few days but Void Energy didn’t disappoint.

He put together a few regulations regarding his shell, making it incredibly difficult to break through and still maintain its usual activity.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t see through her void core into her inner realm. Still…

’She shouldn’t be too much trouble.’ Alex thought and then gestured for Zol to open the chamber. ’With everything prepared, we should be able to establish communications.’

The doors slowly slid open as cold air blew past the doors, freezing the floors in an instant.

Stepping inside, Alex approached the Catwoman, taking a closer look at her features.

The woman was incredibly beautiful and looked no older than twenty-five. The cat ears on her head and the portion of her tail poking out gave her an incredible charm.

With two fingers, Alex levitated the ice shell before shifting off the planet. The others followed soon after.

Once they were all gathered, Alex covered everyone in a ward of energy and then disappeared once again, this time outside the bounds of the galactic empire, thousands of light-years away.

The group appeared in a completely black space devoid of matter. However, the location was brimming with chaotic energies and mesmerizing colours.

Beautiful yet extremely deadly cosmic storms. Fortunately, no one present was not bothered in the slightest bit. If anything, they felt at home.

The hunters created a perimeter around Alexander with a radius of at least one light-year. While an extreme distance for many, it was akin to standing right in front of Alexander.

With the hunters in position and on guard, Alex went ahead to defrost the shell. He didn’t have to do much as he simply tapped into the structure of the ice, breaking down the bonds while infusing a bit of energy.

The ice shell dissolved straight into the gaseous state as the cold air dissipated into the surroundings.

The catwoman was still asleep, but Alex could tell her life activities were starting to kick in as her vortexes began to absorb the surrounding energy.

Alex stepped back a bit as he and the others observed the swirling vortex of energy gathering around the woman.

Mana rushed into her mana vortexes and void energy went inside her inner realm. ’Looks like she’s at the black hole stage.’

The energy absorption continued like that for several hours to no one’s surprise. But soon, the swirling energies were diminishing, signalling the absorption approaching an end.

A second passed before Alex noticed the woman stirring awake. Her eyelids fluttered as she slowly opened them.

The hunters tensed up as they took on a fighting stance, ready to act should the woman decide to attack first.

The Catwoman was first confused as she noticed where she was. But as her memories of what happened to her came rushing back, she abruptly stood up and unleashed the full extent of her aura.

The void trembled under the weight of her crushing presence, feeling as if the fabric of spacetime would be ripped apart.

However, before it could spread to the hunters, Alex raised his left hand and made a clenching fist gesture, instantly putting a protective ward a couple of billion kilometres around her.

The ward locked the space and blocked the aura from spreading any further. His action immediately caught the Catwoman’s attention as she turned to Alex with wide eyes.

"#-$&@_$)_-#_#)" The Catwoman said, but no one understood a word. "@$#_@$$."

Seeing the stoic expression of Alexander and the cautious ones of the surrounding hunters, the Catwoman pondered on what to do.

However, most of her attention was on Alexander as she felt an uneasy feeling in her gut.

’He’s not giving off any aura at all…’ The Catwoman gulped slightly. ’It’s like he’s a normal human you’ll find anywhere.

’And how do I tell them I mean no harm?’ As she thought this, she noticed Alex walking towards her, occasionally shifting through space to cover more distance.

His demeanor was frighteningly calm and this made her cautious of what Alexander could do to her. But as a Veilwalker herself, she stood her ground.

Alexa arrived before the woman a second later. A wave of his hand cleaned the caked blood spots on her flawless skin, healed her injuries and replaced her clothes with something modern and his universe style.

For a moment, the Catwoman thought it was an attack as she couldn’t see through him or his intent. However, seeing what Alexander did, she looked at him a bit differently.

’Maybe I am just being paranoid and they are simply taking precautions against a stranger…’

Still…

If there was one thing Catwoman knew for certain, it was that Alexander was far stronger than she was.
