Lina rushed the injured girl inside and quickly picked up the phone to call Wang who was sitting with Arius Raymos and Arleen on her planet and the call was connected immediately
With clear concern Lina said You must speak with Arius and Raymos right away
Arius raised his head inquiringly What is the matter Lina
She replied Brother a girl fell from the sky in front of our house a short while ago and she is severely injured and I do not know what to do
Arius jumped from his seat and said Take us to Earth immediately
Wang smiled and said calmly Reaching there will take some time
Arius did not wait and triggered teleportation so they all moved in an instant to planet Earth where Lina came out to receive them trembling with fear but Raymos reassured her saying Do not worry everything will be fine
Upon entering the house they found the girl lying on the bed unconscious Arleen looked at Arius and asked Do you know this girl
Arius answered firmly No I have never seen her before
And Raymos who nodded his head asked Neither do I know her
Then Wang held his staff over the girl and healing energy spread around her quickly and her wounds returned to normal and she opened her eyes slowly to find herself in safety among those who came to rescue her
When the girl opened her eyes the look in them carried a mixture of shock and extreme fear and her eyes turned directly toward Arius as if she had known him for a long time Without prior warning she rushed toward him with great speed and his surprise did not allow him to move in time so he collided with the ground forcefully bypassing any natural defense
The girl screamed in a loud voice angry and full of panic You filthy evil criminal shocking everyone with this sudden and strange attack Lina stood helpless for a moment trying to understand what was happening while Arius was astonished by her sudden behavior and did not comprehend the reason for this overwhelming anger
Raymos intervened immediately and stood between Arius and the girl and said with firm calmness Calm down stop this behavior you do not know where you are
But the girl did not back down immediately her body was shaking violently and her face was charged with anger and fear until Lina reached out her hand gently toward her and said Stop please let us understand what is happening first
Those words slowed the girl a little and she began to breathe deeply until she started to realize that she was in a completely different place far from any potential threat She sat on the ground her eyes still trembling and her voice began to shake as she said Keep him away from me get away from me the criminal the criminal
A look of questioning appeared on Arleens face and she said calmly What do you mean by criminal Who is this person
The girl trembled more and pointed at Arius and said with anger and sadness at the same time This person killed my mother and killed many humans and never regretted what he did for a single day
Everyone stopped for a moment and turned their gaze toward Arius Silence hung over the place and the heart rate in the room rose with curiosity and astonishment racing in their eyes
Arius looked at the girl in surprise and said with confusion What Are you serious Do you really think I am someone who could do something like that
Raymos smiled lightly and said in a tone full of understanding I see that the girl is mistaken the matter is not as you think
Then Lina spoke smiling gently to calm her Do not worry nothing like that happened this person did not hurt anyone regardless of your fears
At that moment everyone realized something important Arius no matter how powerful or immense his abilities is a person pure in his intentions who does not commit evil or carry any desire to harm the innocent But what remained clear was that the girl was a mixture of pain and fear from the past which led to this sudden violent behavior
After that Arleen and Raymos went downstairs and sat with Arius and told him that they roughly understood what happened then Arleen explained calmly It is clear that this girl came from another dimension
Ariuss eyebrow rose in surprise and he said Another dimension Is this really possible
Arleen continued Dimensions are sometimes fixed in a certain path but in some cases a part of that path can leak out forming a gap known as an alternate dimension or alternate reality Simply it is a breach of dimensional laws and from here the unexpected appears
She added And the strange thing is that what the girl narrated contradicts our world in fact some matters are completely reversed and through Wangs analysis we concluded that she indeed came from a dimension entirely different from this dimension of ours
Arius looked at the ground contemplating then asked And can one really travel between those dimensions with such ease
Arleen sighed and answered him in a cautious voice It is technically possible but strictly forbidden because any transition between dimensions can cause massive disasters whether on the dimension you go to or the dimension you came from Events that were not supposed to happen might change and the courses of time and natural laws might be corrupted
Arius sat in silence realizing the gravity of what was before him and felt that every step in this world or any other dimension requires immense responsibility and that the mere existence of this girl here carries exceptional signs that might change the course of events beyond imagination
After Arleen explained the danger of the girl staying in this dimension she emphasized to them that her continued presence here might lead to the total corruption of the dimension as everything might change catastrophically While they sat thinking about the situation Wang came down to reassure them saying that the girl had finally fallen asleep after the state of extreme fear she was in while Lina remains by her side taking care of her trying to calm her and give her some sense of security
Everyone sat for some time silent thinking about the consequences of what was happening but suddenly they all felt a strange presence invading their surroundings from outside They rushed outside and their eyes widened in surprise when they saw a strange crack piercing the sky as if it were a tear in reality itself From inside the crack a mysterious person emerged descending to the ground calmly but exuding a threat
This person smiled maliciously his eyes gleaming with cunning and said in a sharp voice Damn did she come here Then he cast a sharp look at Arleen and Wang then turned to the right and said Raymos after that to the left where Arius stood and said with a sarcastic smile Arius
Arius stepped toward the stranger his eyes examining him cautiously and said sharply Who are you
The stranger smiled a smile full of arrogance and raised his hand from his mask to reveal his face shocking everyone as he looked exactly like Arius but possessed a harsher and more malicious gaze The stranger said laughing Hahaha who am I I am you but better
Raymos trembled at the scene and said with astonishment and anger Whoever you are why are you imitating this fool
The stranger replied sharply his gaze full of superiority and said to Raymos When adults speak children remain silent is my speech understood
Raymos was immediately angered by this provocation and decided to attack him but before he could approach the stranger disappeared with terrible speed to appear moments later holding Raymos by the neck with complete ease laughing with deadly sarcasm and saying to him Did I not tell you to be silent boy
Then he gave Raymos one extremely powerful punch after which he lost consciousness immediately and fell before everyone on the ground while the stranger remained standing smiling maliciously as if enjoying the state of chaos and terror he caused among Arius and his companions
Arius stood firmly before the strange version of himself his eyes burning with anger and said in a deep voice Whoever you are you will pay the price for everything you have done
The stranger laughed sarcastically his voice filled with mockery and said Listen to me Arius I have something with you and I only want it returned to me
Ariuss eyebrows rose in wonder and he asked firmly And what is this thing
The stranger smiled a malicious smile and said Simple it is the sleeping girl you have
Arius froze for a moment his eyes widening with surprise and said calmly hiding the anger And what do you want from her
The stranger looked at him mercilessly and said Is it not obvious I want to kill her she caused us obstruction and tried to fail our plan
Arius froze for a second time then said in surprise Our plan
The stranger nodded his head and added challengingly Come on hand over that girl to me and I promise I will leave in peace
Arius kicked the ground in anger rejecting this request strongly and said in a voice charged with power Impossible
Suddenly the stranger rushed toward him with terrible speed and the two exchanged violent blows the collision of their bodies sent massive energy waves flowing around them then Arius threw the stranger away but did not let him leave rather he set off directly after him to begin a new fierce battle between the two each of them trying to control the other and the air around them filled with vibrations and combat tension while the echo of screams and collisions escalated between them in the battlefield
The battle between the evil Arius and Raymos broke out with immense violence every collision between them creating waves of energy shaking the whole place Immediately Wang intervened to treat Raymos and after moments he woke up his eyes sparkling with anger when he witnessed the continuous fighting before him
With rampant anger Raymos set off toward the evil Arius with immense speed and directed at him a powerful punch that threw him far away and said in a voice charged with anger I will not allow scum like you to insult me like this
Then Raymos began launching a series of consecutive punches every powerful strike hitting the evil Arius and making him feel pain However the latter smiled sarcastically and said to him Your strikes are like delicious appetizers to me
Raymoss anger flared more and he began escalating his energy to the maximum limit launching a massive wave of energy that hit the evil Arius and inflicted great damage on him but he emerged from the collision smiling as if the pain did not exist
After that the evil Arius gathered his black energy in the form of a dark spear and launched it with extreme speed toward Raymos who managed to evade it initially but the spear suddenly returned pierced Raymoss chest with force and he fell to the ground again under the weight of the injury while waves of energy escalated from around them announcing the intensity of the confrontation and the rise of the combats dread
Arius was astonished by the intensity of what happened and could not believe the strength of the evil Arius so anger flowed inside him massively and he set off with extraordinary speed toward his opponent directing a violent punch at him The evil Arius blocked the strike with his fist and their collision was so intense that the rain stopped suddenly at the moment of impact as if nature itself stopped in respect for the severity of the confrontation
Arius gathered his strength grabbed the evil Arius and threw him forcefully to the ground then launched the Naysphere technique destroying the spot where the opponent fell completely
But after moments Arius was shocked when he did not find his opponent in the place and suddenly he appeared directly above him astonishing him with his ability for fast movement Then the evil Arius launched a dark Naysphere toward Arius hitting him directly and throwing him far away causing a massive explosion that shook the entire place surpassing everything Arius had faced before
The evil Arius laughed maliciously saying in a voice full of arrogance Amazing is this Arius This small world He is just an insect before my magnificence and immense power
Arleen smiled calmly then whispered to Wang This person is excessively conceited
Wang answered her with confidence Whatever happens my lady it is not permissible for rulers to intervene before mortals so we must suffice with watching
Arleen stepped away leaving the scene to unfold before their eyes without moving
Inside the girl suddenly woke up to find Lina standing in front of the window staring at what was happening outside The girl rushed to watch the scene only to see the evil Arius flying over the place releasing his energy in every direction She screamed from fear her eyes filling with tears This is him this is the one who killed my mother
Lina sighed and said He looks like my brother Arius amazingly
The girl hid in the closet trembling with terror while the evil Arius continued to advance mercilessly amidst the debris and dust
Arius stood his eyes glowing with anger and wonder and thought to himself This person not only looks like me but also uses my techniques What is happening here
He raised his voice shouting Hey you Tell me are you really me or just a strange imitator
The evil Arius smiled a wide smile and said with coldness and confidence Come on I am of course Arius but not just any Arius I am the perfect Arius I represent absolute perfection I am the symbol of everything beautiful and anyone else represents ugliness I am everything do you understand who I am
Arius approached his words with anger and said So you are crazy obsessed only with yourself
The evil Arius laughed again and said with unwavering confidence Of course I will be obsessed with myself I am a unique being of its kind there is no one like me in any universe I am the pure image and symbol of salvation for this world as for you you are just something ordinary
Arius asked in a tense voice mixed with anger And what is your goal
The evil Arius smiled sarcastically and said My goal does not concern you it is much bigger than you So go today I forgive you so leave
Ariuss anger rose from these words and suddenly he raised his power level and launched a powerful punch at his evil counterparts face so the latter was driven away by its impact Arius did not stop but descended upon him with a series of violent punches every strike hitting his stomach causing him severe pain Then he gathered his energy and launched a glowing Naysphere in his face making the earth shake from the force of the attack
The evil Arius became angry immediately so he grabbed Arius forcefully and launched a series of sharp energies to stab him Arius tried to resist the attack and with his determination the energies shattered around him then he started punching the evil Arius with his elbow forcing him to withdraw and leave him He did not hesitate and directed a powerful strike at his belly throwing him far away toward the crack that appeared and the evil Arius returned from it and disappeared quickly and the crack closed immediately
Arius breathed with difficulty his body weighed down by exhaustion and severe injuries and his eyes were burning with anger and readiness for the next stage of the fight
After the evil Arius disappeared Arius descended to the ground wondering with concern Where did he go
Wang answered him calmly It is clear that he returned to the place he came from
The team gathered after that to discuss what happened and try to address the effects the fight left on everyone
In the meantime the girl came down from the house screaming in anger Where is he Where did that villain go
Raymos stepped quickly toward her and grabbed her gently saying Calm down girl that thing has gone
The girl collapsed sitting on the ground her eyes glowing with anger and words came from her carrying the determination for revenge I will take revenge on him no matter what happens I will not let him escape so easily
Arius approached her cautiously and said in a low voice so only she could hear I want us to talk alone
He took her to the back garden where the air is calm and the grass glows with morning moisture and they sat together on the ground
Arius said after the atmosphere calmed down a bit I want you to explain to me what is the story of this person Why does he look like me And is he really me or something else
Yukari looked at him with eyes carrying a mixture of sadness and fear and sat on the grass before beginning to narrate what happened She said I have truly realized that you are not him in fact Mr Arius I did not come from the same place you are in I came from the ruins I was living with my family in peace although we were always trying to survive the troubles that were hovering over our heads
She stopped for a bit then continued One day I was sitting with my mother and grandmother until my father came and told us that he did not find your lookalike here
Arius stopped for a moment surprised and asked A lookalike for me Who do you mean do you mean that person I fought a while ago
Yukari smiled sadly and said I am called Yukari and I am the daughter of your sister Lina
Arius was a bit shocked then said So are you coming from the future
Yukari answered him quickly No I am coming from a different dimensional line but from another time period and everything in that dimension is completely different from this dimension you live in
Arius nodded his head with understanding as he remembered what he read in his youth about parallel dimensions and how different timelines can intersect or branch out He realized immediately that Yukari is not a liar and that she is indeed coming from another different dimension
He asked her in a calm voice but one that carries deep interest And how were you able to reach here What method did you use
Yukari smiled a little despite the sadness filling her eyes and explained One of the remaining rulers in my world helped me the Ruler of Construction He gave me a special jewel that enables me to move between dimensions I was looking for someone capable of helping us because in that world there are no rulers of any kind at all and the people there because of your lookalike suffered a lot
She stopped for a moment then completed in a gloomy voice Unfortunately that person killed 98 percent of the inhabitants of Earth according to what he told us all creatures in our world were annihilated
Arius sat silent for a moment feeling chills running through his body and his eyes were filling with anger and sadness at the same time realizing the magnitude of the horror Yukari lived through
Arius smiled lightly but remained serious as he listened to every word Yukari said and realized the scale of the tragedy of the world she came from
He asked her cautiously Did any of the creatures remain alive
Yukari shook her head and said In fact a very small number of humans remained hiding underground from fear I was trying to help them and I faced that person I tried to confront him but I could not Even my father fought him for three continuous years and in the end he met his fate and died
Arius hesitated for a moment then asked in a low voice And who is he
Yukaris cheeks glowed a little from shyness and she pointed to Raymos sitting far away to make Yukari realize that he looks astonished by the gesture
Arius laughed at the scene with a light voice What Raymos is your father and Lina is your mother this means they will marry in the future
Yukari sighed and said seriously The important thing is I want a promise that you will not tell anyone about my identity please
Arius looked at her with steady eyes and said reassuringly Do not worry I will not tell anyone your secret is safe with me
Arius and Yukari returned to where everyone was and Yukari took her place calmly sparking curiosity while everyone watched her with surprise at her calm behavior after all she had been through
Arius said while pointing to her This is Yukari everyone There was no previous time to introduce her so excuse her
Yukari bowed shyly and said in a calm voice I am sorry for any problems I caused you
Lina smiled and said reassuringly It is okay my friend you were not guilty of anything that happened
Arleen looked at Yukari and said Just tell us who is that criminal who looks like Arius
Yukari began revealing the truth seriously The evil Arius I know a lot about him My father followed him all over the universe and fought him for long years In the beginning he was annihilating powerful creatures only but with the passage of time he began eliminating weak creatures too for any reason Whatsoever no creature was ever safe from him he annihilated countless numbers of beings in the name of his own justice and freedom
Lina trembled from fear and asked And what is this justice that eliminates creatures
Yukari answered in a calm and tense voice In fact since he was young according to what my father told me he had aggressive and extremist tendencies but he did not tell me anything else
Everyone sat in the garden quietly and the atmosphere was still tense from the recent events
Wang said seriously In fact everyone there is something strange about that lookalike how was he able to come here like this According to my expectation there must be someone helping him otherwise how was he able to travel between dimensions
Arleen looked at Yukari and asked Did this person have any assistants
Yukari answered confidently No during the entire period we were repelling him there was no one with him He was always alone attacking a little then disappearing without a trace
Arius sighed and said in surprise This is strange how does he have all that authority without any support There is something unnatural here
Raymos commented calmly In fact if you noticed his fighting style was very organized more like the style of a ruler
Everyone froze for a moment and astonishment was drawn on their faces then Arius followed saying True I noticed the matter too I was a bit surprised by his way of fighting and his organized reaction
After a while the atmosphere calmed down a little and everyone sat resting while Lina began carefully cleaning Ariuss wounds and everyone was immersed in deep thought about that mysterious person and his strange abilities .
