"Once upon a time, I was just a little thief in King Augu's city. I would be beaten to death by the city guard for half a piece of black bread."
"But look at myself now. Not only has I reached the pinnacle of the realm, not only have six trustworthy and powerful companions, not only have the ancient ferocious beasts respected me, but I have even been involved in disputes in the dimensional space."
"To be honest, this kind of life still feels a bit unreal to me to this day. In other words, the life I really yearn for should be plain and slightly boring, at least not involving any dimensional space."
As the sun set, Boom sat in front of the bonfire as usual, but today he was not in the mood to eat any delicious food, and his eyes were always fixed on the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast.
Did he resist from the bottom of his heart that there was someone suddenly in the flower pavilion? What's more terrible was that the other party's strength was far superior to his. If the other party really had any bad thoughts, how should he deal with it?
But from Rikka's point of view, he can only stand on the side of the realm of nothingness, quietly waiting for the so-called "Hunter Plane" to attack.
"Why are you looking for trouble? Since Rikka is a companion, then no matter how much she behaves, we will all walk side by side. As an elder brother, you have no excuse to ignore her."
"Keep an open mind on everything, and if you can't escape, deal with it head-on. From another perspective, being able to fight against such a powerful existence is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Christine took a bite of the bread and whispered after hearing the words. She didn't care about the realm of nothingness or the hunter plane. The journey should be colorful and she should witness more interesting things with her own eyes.
As for life or death, it is completely out of her scope. After all, she has lived for too long, she has become numb, and she feels that life is getting more and more boring.
However, Gloria looked dismissive when she heard this, as if the powerful creatures in those positions were far less important than the dessert on the plate.
Just as Gloria said, the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast left the camp before dinner time and chose to take shelter deep in the flower pavilion. That was the reality he had to admit. Gloria's strength was indeed no better than Rikka.
On par, and far more cruel and ruthless than Rikka.
"Lady Valkyrie St. Odyssey Vank, do you rely on such disgusting things to maintain your life every day in this dimension?"
"Please forgive my ignorance, these things cannot provide any energy at all. Apart from their different appearance, they are essentially the same as vegetation."
Looking at the stew on the dinner plate, the Soul-Shattering Tomb Beast asked in confusion. After all, in the realm of nothingness, he either devoured beasts at the level of ancient ferocious beasts, or gnawed on some ores comparable to dragon crystals, but he couldn't.
I have never eaten such ordinary food.
As a superior person, the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast is only interested in things that can make him stronger. This is why he has never looked at Boom and the others from the beginning to the end.
In his eyes, only Rikka and Gloria deserve to be respectful. As for the other guys, he feels that they are all followers of Rikka like me. And in terms of strength, he is better.
But the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast didn't dare to really ask about those things. You must know that any decision of Rikka is unquestionable, even if he is ordered to die now.
"Relax, remember what I once said, what the creature will eventually become depends more on innate qualifications."
"After all, there are not many people who practice hard like Boom. Everyone knows the principle of perseverance, but how many can really do it."
"But on the other hand, growth is the most important thing. Although your level is good now, if you want to go further, it will be very difficult. And my companions have infinite plasticity."
"All in all, there are only two requirements for me. One is that I must praise the food I cook, and the other is that my companions must be regarded as my avatar."
Rikka rarely got angry when she heard this. Instead, she sat on the floor and ate the stew by herself. She understood the other party's doubts very well. After all, she had been like this before, until she met her six companions.
Boom taught her what "forbearance" is. The brother and sister once fled to the world and suffered countless hardships. Not to mention the years they endured in the King of Ogu.
Christine taught her what "letting go" means. She recalled that during those two years at Cisse High Court, she took great care of her, and she is still her caring big sister to this day.
Perseus taught her what "loyalty" is, from the hanging tree to the bald muscular man, to the driver of wood psychic power. Perseus will never leave her, and will always stand behind her.
Hastur taught her what "guarding" is. The big fat insect she once was has disappeared, replaced by a calm top assassin.
Alberto taught her what "flexibility" was. In fact, Rikka had already seen the little guy's true strength, but she didn't reveal it.
Gloria taught her what "extreme" means. Although the two sisters usually quarrel constantly, Gloria cares about her sister's opinion the most, and Rikka also cares about her sister's three meals a day.
Therefore, her minimum requirement for those who come to the realm of nothingness is to respect her six companions. Otherwise, let alone the bullshit hunter plane, she will directly kill all the outsiders.
The bond, Rikka's bond is only with Boom and her companions. And the reason why she was so tolerant to the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast was just out of past affection and had no other meaning.
"I will obey the orders of the Lord of Nothingness, and from now on I will treat your six companions as I serve you!"
"You will always be my queen, the most powerful creature in the realm of nothingness, and the last resort for superiors like us!"
The soul-shattering grave beast prostrates itself on the ground, turning its palms to the sky. This is the only etiquette in the realm of nothingness, and it is a gesture of unconditional recognition of the strong.
There is no need to understand Rikka's decision, and there is no need to question whether this decision is correct. As a servant, he only needs to obey the other party's orders.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast is also very curious. After all, if the strength of Boom and his team were placed in the realm of nothingness, they would probably not be worthy of becoming his vassals.
"By the way, there is one more thing. From now on, you must show yourself in human form in Flowing Light City, or in other words, you must not return to your true form unless necessary."
"Eat quickly. Tell me in detail about the so-called hunter plane tonight. How dare you hunt down this world? It seems you really don't take me seriously."
Rikka looked at the soul-crushing grave beast chewing the stew with a smile. She spoke very calmly, but there was a hint of starlight in her eyes.
Nowadays, no one knows the little girl's true strength, and she has not swallowed anything delicious for a long time. Therefore, instead of saying it is a worry, it is better to say that she is a hungry person, silently waiting for a feast.
Hearing this, the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast transformed into the scarred dwarf again, but the sense of oppression it exuded was extremely strong.
This is also the reason why he miscalculated Boom and his team. After all, compared to those superiors from the Realm of Nothingness, Boom and his team know how to hide their strength better.
According to Boom, you should keep one hand at all times. Exposing your cards too early is tantamount to asking for trouble.
Maybe Boom is still unable to defeat the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast on his own, but if Christine is added to the mix, he probably has at least a 30% chance.
But fortunately, the Soul-Shattering Grave Beast is a servant of Rikka, otherwise it would rush into the flower pavilion and there would be no chance of leaving alive. This is the bottom line for Boom and his party. After all, the Necropolis Philecht Nalantis
It is the only safe haven for everyone, and it is the home that everyone must protect.
