Chapter 6 - Parallel universe

Herald whistled for his horse to come. It came running and it was met with diablo who showed it the face of despair. The horse collapsed due to a heart attack.

With all the soldiers dead and lying on the ground, Ken Shira's army continued forward. They got to the Marina Kingdom and unleashed destruction upon the Kingdom. They killed all who resisted and captured the rest.

They destroyed all the buildings of the kingdom.

BELZARYX the father of the dead and the living, the lord of the black covenant who is feared by all life forms and dead ones alike. The one who all celestial beings fear more than they fear sin, made an entrance at this massacre caused by Ken and his men.

As he arrived at the place black clouds started to form and pour down like liquid metal and then they made way from up in the sky all the way down to the ground. They quickly crystalized as soon they hit the ground forming a staircase for him to decend upon. His dark mysterious figure came down the crystalized clouds. Everything froze as if time it's self has stopped.

All the mass destruction that was happening froze midway, attack spells stopped in their position due to their fear of BELZARYX. Protection spells faltered, shields broke, attack spells stopped midway and disappeared.

The name BELZARYX shook the heavens and the shadows of BELZARYX burnt everything It came upon.

All the those who could still move knelt down as if they were about to pray. The sky and ground dissolved into one reality, everything suddenly disappeared and all they could see was infinite void. They could not feel or hear anything. All human life forms were crushed by space time continuum. All reality was dissolved into nothingness, the only things left in the void were the demon king and his troops.

They all appeared in a celestial room that looked like it was court room, as confusion was in the air, BELZARYX appeared looking like a judge. His face remaining forever unseen by the living, mysterious as an unexplored area or land.

ALL RISE!! The mighty BELZARYX spoke like no other with his voice forever lingering in the room, like a sound in a hollow object .They all stood up as if they had no control of their own bodies. His voice alone made miracles happen, it was so powerful it could create and uncreate a Galaxy.

Father, what do I owe the pleasure? Ken asked showing no fear at all. The room which looked empty capably holding only Ken's troops suddenly had murmurs from the dark corners of the room.

How dare you!!(Such disrespect)

The murmurs being heard were coming from the council of the black covenant who include gods of different universes.

Belzaryx was not known to have offspring. This was a first they've ever heard.

My son it has been far too long, you have haven't come to check on me why? I ask. Belzaryx spoke like no king but like a father speaking to a son.

It's only been 10 years father you can't complain. Ken gave out a reply.

But you know time moves differently in this universe it runs on a scale of one 1min:10d. So on that note you can already tell that I have been here all by myself for an extremely long time. Belzaryx spoke sounding like a weeping dad.

Come on father I didn't know you were in this universe. I how could I know when you didn't even tell me? Ken spoke like he was above all.

Ahh forget it, what were you doing the Marina kingdom? BELZARYX asked.

I'm a busy king father, unlike you always lying around. Ken said in a serious tone.

That doesn't answer my question Ken, what where you doing in the Marina kingdom.

Ken stood silently for a moment as the vast courtroom watched him. The council of the Black Covenant leaned forward from the darkness of the chamber, their eyes fixed on the demon king. Even the shadows themselves seemed curious.

Ken slowly began to walk across the floor of the celestial court, his footsteps echoing through the endless chamber.

"The Marina Kingdom?" Ken said calmly. "It was simply standing in the way."

Murmurs spread through the council once again.

"Standing in the way of what?" one of the unseen gods demanded.

Ken stopped walking and looked toward the throne where BELZARYX sat. Though his father's face could not be seen, Ken could feel his gaze.

"I needed something that was buried beneath that kingdom," Ken replied.

The entire courtroom fell silent.

BELZARYX leaned slightly forward on his throne.

"And what exactly would require the destruction of an entire kingdom to obtain?" he asked.

Ken's expression did not change.

"A gate."

The word echoed through the chamber like thunder.

Suddenly the council erupted in chaos.

"That is impossible!"

"No one can open it!"

"Not even the covenant allows such madness!"

BELZARYX raised a single hand.

Instantly the room became silent again.

"My son," BELZARYX said slowly, his voice heavier than before, "tell me you did not open that gate."

"I didn't open it," Ken said.

The council sighed in relief.

Then Ken spoke again.

"I broke it."

Far beyond the celestial courtroom, somewhere deep within the void of existence…

something ancient opened its eyes.
