My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 727 The Obscure Plans Of The Emperor



p -----

Within the throne palace, there was an old man sitting over his throne, a long white beard extended into his belly, his eyes tired yet filled with magic seemed to resonate with the power of the six beasts he had bonded, which were contained within the six jewels on his two arms.

His eyes shone with a bright red color. This man wearing black and red armor and sitting over a majestic throne while looking at a large white crystal showing what was happening inside the arena of Riverside City seemed rather serious in appearance. After all, this was nothing else but the start of the awaited battle between his grandchildren for the throne.

Indeed, he was the Emperor of the Navarre Empire, where the Riverside City was one of its largest cities that also produced the most wealth due to the tourism it had over the many tournaments it always held every month and every year… countless monster pet trainers always gathered on this city, and it was a big money-making area of his Empire.

The Emperor, Julius Navarre III looked into the spherical magic crystal with contempt, he was a bit excited at first, but found himself rather disappointed on the one he was looking forward the most, Hectarious.

"Fool, what sort of Emperor would underestimate their opponent? Hectarious, I had high hopes for you, but your attitude in this battle leaves a lot to be desired. Your attitude is not fit to be an Emperor… You're too arrogant, you can't even see the big picture…" The Emperor said with a domineering voice. "Your age and physique and magic talent are quite good though… I have to admit that. However… Arthurious has a lot of hidden potential too… That Black Goat of him has been nourished by powers I had not seen before… What sort of man is "Sir Frank", I wonder?"

The Emperor looked in front of him as a large group of men wearing black robes showed up, their uniforms had big red, black, and purple eyes on them, and a mysterious woman with long purple nails and purple hair reaching her waist, who covered her face with a black hood, greeted him.

"Emperor, it seems that the future vessels- I mean, the princes are about to fight?" Asked the woman.

"My useless son is slowly dying; it seems that the curse inflicted on him has finally taken effect… Well, I had him for the purpose of increasing my lifespan, it is good that he made many children, I got a lot from what to pick." Said the Emperor. "A youthful body, talented in both magic and physical fighting, and with a strong monster pet… Hmm, sounds good to me…"

The woman with purple hair laughed eerily, as her eyes shone brightly with purple light. Her entire aura emanated dread and poisonous toxins, as if whatever she had bonded with was the embodiment of poison and acid…

"Fracture, Scarlet, and Shiso are also participating, my lord." Said the woman. "They will take away the Fragment by force, alongside the Time Stone, and they'll try to stop the Guardian from interfering, their aim would be to slay him, if possible."

<br/>"Excellent. As long as my grandchildren are not damaged I am okay with that." Said the Emperor. "I don't know how that fool that made this tournament got his hands in such a precious item as the Time Stone, but it is the item I needed…"

"What about the fragment of Kosmos, my lord?" Asked the woman.

"It has yet to awaken, but soon enough I shall utilize it. Everything is coming together quite nicely but I am sure there will be those that will try to interfere, the Guardian is someone strong… and his monster pets seem to be strong as well… We cannot lower our guard with him." Said the Emperor.

"I see. You're as thoughtful as ever, even after a millennia…" Said the woman, her eyes shone as if they were those of a snake.

"I've been planning and setting this up for eons… The worlds connected to the Fragment of Kosmos will soon align together. The ancient world where all humans originated will open its gates, and the convergence will begin… The paths to the worlds will soon open." Said the man. "I have been doing this for thousands of years, you don't know how much I've been waiting for this to finally begin… The beginning of the end…"

The man's eyes shone bright red… his very presence was not at all like the actual Emperor that everybody knew, it seemed as if he was the very embodiment of malice and darkness, blood-red aura emanated from him as well, as he looked into a black jewel at the side of his throne, grasping it.

The jewel shone brightly with a darkness energy, this jewel was not a normal piece of jewelry, it contained a power that he had been slowly building for eons, this stone was… the Fragment of Kosmos. He merely infused a bit of energy into it, as it shone brightly, showing a bluish nebula with countless stars, which was actually an Astral Map!

The man who had acquired this piece eons ago looked at the Astral Map the same way he had done the first time he found such a piece… the Astral Map showcased various worlds, spherical planets floating further away from one another, but that were somehow bound by this fragment.

Since the moment he learned that there were more worlds out there, since the moment he had reached the peak and sought for more power, more riches, and to conquer everything… he had been slowly planning it, a way to reach these worlds, and also… the world where all humans originated from Gaia.

And now… after eons, things were finally getting together.

But his latest vessel had begun to grow very old, and he even had to curse his son and take part of his lifespan, and even then, due to his enormous power, his body was slowly deteriorating…

He needed a new and fresh vessel to take over.

…And his talented grandchildren would do.
