1956 Karma Never Arrived Fast Enough...


    Back to the Original Timeline...


    Empress Emily and the other rulers were awaiting Felix''s return from thetest universe with clear anticipation.


    They had been following Felix''s journey across the timelines much closer than the other candidates.


    80% of the other candidates had already dropped out one way or another after realizing the impossibility of the trials.


    Only Emilia and a few others remained, showing some progress.


    On the other hand, Felix''s progress could be said to be explosive as he had solved many issues that the others were suffering from.


    Since he made a deal with Empress Emily to protect his data, no one could take advantage of his progress at all.


    Whoosh!!


    "He has returned! Oh, I don''t think he has seeded, though..." The Witch Empire Queen murmured after noticing Felix sitting on his knees with a stunned expression.


    When Empress Emily sensed his elerating heartbeats, she knew that something serious and traumatic must have happened on the other side.


    Before she bothered to nce at his memories, she forced him to pass out to protect him. Then, she ced him in the medical pod and left him there until she understood what urred on the other side.


    After Queen Ai extracted Felix''stest memories and analyzed them, she yed the highlights for the ten rulers on a holographic screen.


    The screen flickered to life, showing Felix as a teenager, his body and mind revitalized by the merger with Zion.


    Although their meeting was rough, once they understood their situation was unchangeable unless they worked together, they created a partnership with two goals in sight...Zion''s freedom and Felix''s strength enhanced as he had no interest in living his life like a failure ever again.


    Felix took advantage of his memories, saving his grandfather, his family''s legacy, and his from falling under the Alenxder''s rulership.


    With Zion''s reality maniption powers, Felix''s strength kept rising quite breezily...Anything he needed or desired, Zion was able to make it happen in a limited capacity.


    For example, Felix struggled at the start to find a good bloodline to awaken, but with Zion''s powers, he helped him extract the poison primogenitor''s bloodline from a mere tier 3 beast.


    As Felix kept growing stronger, so as Zion''s abilities due to being fed with the necessary elemental energy to use his powers.


    While it was no celestial energy, it was enough of an upgrade.


    The rulers watched Felix''s journey elerating at an incredible pace, flying through the ranks of all the SG tforms, destroying any enemy standing before him, and simply bing the greatest version of himself.


    A version that not even the rulers thought was possible.


    Soon, things started to get awkward after Felix reached the stage in life where he began defeating other races and their leaders until reaching the highest point imaginable.


    The Supreme Position!


    "What a frightening pace...It took him less than two centuries to defeat the Elder Dragon of his universe and take charge."


    "It''s expected, he could be said to have the potential of a celestial, so he wouldn''t be slowed down until he nears it."


    The SGRulers conversed with each other.


    While Felix''s journey seemed to pose a serious threat to their current authority, they understood that no such thing was going to happen.


    In the original timeline, he would either be the Supreme and protect them as his ''children'' or drop out and return to his mundane life...Thus, there was no threat to them or their positions.


    After Felix integrated with seven primogenitors and reached the stage, where he needed to rival the primogenitors'' strength, there was only one way forward...Bing a unigin!


    Unfortunately, Felixmenced the breakthrough to the origin realm, thinking it would be enough, but it wasn''t...


    His infinite celestial potential was killed the moment he finished his human integration bloodline.


    While his strength far surpassed the primogenitor, his spiritual pressure was nowhere close to the unigins or the celestials.


    After he spent hundreds of thousands of years and traveled across the entire universe, seeking opportunities, he realized that he was done...On the other hand, Zion was nowhere close to either his freedom or vengeance.


    But, there was nothing for Felix to do.


    As much as he wanted to help his partner, his hands werepletely tied and not even Zion''s reality-manipting powers could help him.


    While Felix decided to let it go slowly, Zion had a different thought in mind...He told him to gather as much elemental energy as possible for onest hail mary.


    ''If we gathered enough elemental energy, there might be a way for me to use it all to fuel one single reality alteration. I can alter reality to send us back in time to before we broke through the origin realm.'' Zion said with a calm tone as he sat in Felix''s consciousness space.


    ''That''s possible?!'' Felix was shocked.


    ''I don''t know to be honest, but it wouldn''t hurt to try.'' Zion replied calmly.


    ''At this point, I am willing to do anything.''


    Felix didn''t hesitate to restart his journey for his partner''s sake with pure intentions to help him obtain his freedom.


    After spending god knows how many more years doing nothing but harvesting elemental energy from every known ce, Zion finally brought an end to it.


    ''I think I have enough.'' He said.


    ''Then, what are you waiting for?'' Felixughed excitedly, ''Send us back.''


    He considered Zion as his best friend, his partner, and his brother.


    In his mind, there was nothing they would do for each other as their loyalty would melt steel itself. This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    s, that was only in Felix''s mind and heart...


    In Zion''s heart, there was only one thing and it was vengeance against the three rulers and unigins for what they did to him...Nothing more, nothing less.


    ''I am sorry Felix, but our adventure ends here...'' Zion sighed frustratingly, ''I wish I had it in me to rewind time, I really do, but with this amount of energy...I can only leave you behind.''


    "Zion, what are you talking about?" Felix''s excitement died out slowly and was reced with utter confusion.


    "It was an interesting journey and I have enjoyed every moment of it, but my road can not end here."


    As thest word left Zion''s mouth, Felix felt a sudden feeling of heat arising from within his chest...As he touched it, he realized that it wasing from his soul!


    Then, a sharp pain spread out across his entire body, paralyzing him instantly, and leaving him frozen in a meditation position.


    Felix immediately entered his consciousness space and what he saw utterly broke his heart and threw the pieces to the bottom of his stomach...


    Zion was hovering in the center of the consciousness space while utilizing his reality-altering powers to rewrite one single word in the fabric of reality.


    Felix had seen Zion utilize his abilities so many times, that he was already ustomed to its mechanism andnguage.


    So, when he read the sentence that Zion was changing, he could only mumble in disbelief, "Zion...How can you..."


    "I am truly sorry..." Zion smiled bitterly as he uttered onest time, "Brother."


    The moment brother resounded in Felix''s mind, he looked down to see his consciousness disintegrating into particles.


    Then, he lifted his head and saw those particles heading towards Zion''s, seemingly absorbing them.


    Zion had altered the reality of their soul dynamic by using the collected elemental energy as fuel.


    The separation they were seeking to be done by Lord Hades was forcefully done by Zion. To increase Zion''s chances at securing Felix''s body without much struggle, he couldn''t just sever their souls.


    He had to devour Felix''s consciousness topletely obtain full control of both parts of the soul...


    "Ha, ha, hahahaahahaaha...For someone who desired to avenge himself for being betrayed, you sure have no problem doing the same when it benefited you!"


    In the end, all Felix would do wasugh,ugh, andugh at the irony of their fate.


    Zion remained silent, knowing that nothing he said was going to make him look anything but a hypocrite.


    "Zion, if there was one thing I learned from this universe in my journey; It honors bnce above all else."


    "Your karma wille, sooner orter..."


    With one disappointed smile across his face, Felix faded out of existence, his consciousness and part of his soulpletely gone...


    "Bnce, huh..." Zion narrowed his eyes coldly, "Bnce will be restored only when I have the three rulers and unigins heads'' impale..."


    Before he would finish his sentence, an irritated exhausted voice resounded in his mind, ''You little sh*t, you ruined everything...''


    "Uncle Kronos?!"


    Recognizing the familiar voice, Zion was left shocked.


    Unfortunately, before he would question him, his vision cked out and so as the rest of the living in this universe.


    Karma never arrived fast enough...
