Chapter 246: 246 [Human, why are you stopping us!?] The voice of the serpentine monster reverberated through the space-time tunnel .
… Do I have to answer this question?
I mean, it's rather obvious, is it not?
I don't know if the serpentine monster felt the sarcasm in my gaze, but it opened its mouth again .
[Thousands of our people have been killed by you! Will you don't rest until our races are extinct!?]
Oh? I guess I can grasp a bit of information from this serpent's words .
Let's try to see . Anyway, I can earn time so the others rest for a bit .
"What do you expect then? That I let your group of monster friends invade our world and kill our people?"
The serpent grunted . [That is not our purpose, human! We only want a new place to live in! To keep our races' existence! Our purpose is not to invade, neither it is to destroy!]
"Perhaps . " I shrugged . "But I can't take that risk . Besides, why would I trust you?"
The serpent fell silent . It seemed like it was unsure about how to answer .
At that moment, another voice came from the depths of the space-time tunnel .
[Human, you are very powerful . Can you represent the people of your world?]
This time, the one who spoke was a dragon . A giant white dragon flew from the sea of monsters and advance towards us .
The dragon emitted a feeling of majesty and vastness like the sky it ruled . Moreover, its strength was overwhelming . It was just below the level of a god!
As soon as its voice sounded, the teachers paled . Even Evelyn's expression turned ugly . As a thirteen-layer practitioner, she could feel the vast and overwhelming power the monster was emitting .
I also frowned when I saw the dragon . This monster was strong . Moreover, I could feel some monsters as strong as it hidden behind the sea of monsters . It seemed like the number of monster powerhouses invading this time was greater than I thought .
Of course, this was not enough to intimidate me . Although I admit I was slightly surprised .
Anyway, due to the dragon's aura, neither Evelyn nor the other teachers were able to speak . In this situation, it seemed I was the only one that could answer .
I heaved a sigh and used my mana to stealthily reduce the effects of the dragon's aura in them . At the same time, I spoke . "I can't represent the people of my world, but I assure you that if you want to enter my world, you must get my permission first . "
The dragon nodded, although it was unknown if it took my words seriously or not .
[Very well then . Can we have a brief chat? I don't want to continue this endless bloodshed . ]
"Do speak . " I said coldly .
[… Human, I hope you can allow our people to cross to your world . ]
I smiled mockingly . "Do you think I will allow it simply because you say so?"
[If you don't want to die, you will!] This time it was the serpent who hissed in anger .
I chuckled and looked at the serpent with an amused expression . Such a funny beast .
The next instant, I let my killing intent roam free .
And as though the heavens themselves were crying, everything changed .
Rivers of blood and mountains of bodies appeared in my back and an overwhelming pressure and feeling of danger suppressed the monsters . It was as though death itself had come to claim their lives .
Of course, I made sure to not let my killing intent affect the people behind me . I did not want to leave a trauma in them .
The monsters screeched in fear . Even the white dragon shivered and took a step back instinctively . Then, it shot me a gaze of horror .
[You… Athánatos!] The dragon and the serpent screamed simultaneously .
I frowned . Athánatos? If I'm not wrong, that means…
. . . Immortal, right?
My expression turned serious . I waved my hand, creating a barrier around the others to stop them from hearing our conversation .
Then, I directed a chilling gaze towards the dragon and the serpent .
"How do you know? Have you seen someone like me before?"
The dragon grunted . It tried to struggle against my killing intent, but after I snorted, the pressure on him increased exponentially causing blood to flow out of its mouth .
Finally, it cried in despair . [Athánatos! Why do you want to destroy our race!? Is it not enough with our world!?]
"Shut up!" I increased the pressure around me even more and looked at the dragon coldly . "I don't know what is happening in your world, and I don't care . But I hope you can explain how did you recognize me . Otherwise, I don't mind killing every one of you!"
The dragon whimpered . Its eyes were filled with fear, unwillingness, and terror . As for the serpent beside it and the other monsters of similar power, they had shut up long ago .
Apparently, they had personally experienced the terror of my kind . Thus, as soon as they learned I was an Immortal, their arrogance turned into complete fear .
But I soon learned of the reason .
The white dragon started to speak of the history of its world . It spoke about how a few hundreds of years ago, an Immortal arrived at their world .
At the start, the monsters did not pay him attention . But soon, they discovered the mana of their world was being drained slowly . Moreover, their world started to wither, and calamities spread through the land .
A powerful monster divined the reason for the changes . It was the Immortal . A being of terrifying power whose only purpose was to destroy worlds .
Thus, the monsters teamed to kill him . Aware that the Immortal was very powerful, the monsters did not dare to underestimate him . They gathered the strongest monsters of their world, dragon gods and monster overlords, and marched to a battle against the Immortal .
The result? a complete defeat .
[… We did not even manage to hurt him . ] The dragon said in a despondent tone . [Thousands of monsters died, but we did not even manage to hurt him . ]
I sighed . I did not find it strange . Instead, I would have found it strange if they manage to defeat him .
Immortals, especially the oldest ones, are living calamities able to destroy planets singlehandedly . How can they be defeated by the natives of a normal world?
[Fortunately, the athánatos did not pursue the survivors, so some of the powerhouses of our world managed to survive . Since then, we tried more than once to defeat him, but our only results were the death of the strongest of our world .
[Finally, one day one of the remaining monster gods said that killing the athánatos was impossible and that we needed to leave a ray hope for our descendants . So, he sacrificed himself to create a portal connecting our world to another world… With the help of the will of the world, his plan was successful .
[This place is that ray of hope . ]
