Chapter 989 Uninvited Visitor
As the Underblade conveyed the message, Jane swiftly addressed the group of girls, her voice determined and concerned, "I will be back in a few."
With that declaration, she soared into the sky and departed, leaving the harem members to contemplate her abrupt exit.
Elena, always practical, stood up and remarked, "The center of the dynasty's capital is around 800 kilometers away. I will prepare the teleportation device."
Rias, lost in her thoughts, couldn't help but be awed by Jane's capabilities. Her inner musings emerged as words: 'Jane was able to sense something from that far away? No, she sensed it even before that.'
"Undoubtedly, it's safe to assume that Jane is currently the most powerful being in the universe," Rias affirmed in the dining hall, her voice filled with awe and a hint of pride.
Lilim posed a question that had likely crossed all their minds, "Stronger than Rudy? She can't be, right? According to what Jane told us, Rudy was more than the Lord; he was the Overlord."
Rias's explanation regarding Jane's and Rudy's powers left the harem members in the dining hall with a deeper understanding. "Yes. But Rudy only had his powers for a few months, and if we count the years he spent in the past, that would be a year and a few months. While Jane had vampire powers for fifty years—she was already the third strongest vampire—and she was the Blue Moon Princess for the last seven years. Obviously, if Rudy had his powers for that long, he would be much stronger than anyone," Rias explained.
Eager to meet this important guest, Rias decided to accompany Elena. "Anyway, I am curious who this important guest is, so I am going with Elena," she declared, rising from her seat.
In the meantime, Jane had traversed the 800 kilometers in a mere few seconds, arriving at the heart of the grand capital of Rudy's dynasty.
The capital was a breathtaking spectacle, unlike anything in the rest of the dynasty. Its streets were wide, clean, and bustling with activity. Luxurious buildings lined the main boulevard, ornate and exquisitely designed, showcasing the wealth and culture of the dynasty.
In the center of the capital square stood a magnificent statue of Rudy. Carved from the finest materials, it was a true work of art, capturing Rudy's regal presence and strength. The statue depicted Rudy in a commanding pose, his hand raised as if in the midst of performing powerful magic. He wore his distinctive robes and a confident, almost mischievous smile on his face.
The citizens of the dynasty often gathered around this statue, paying their respects and seeking inspiration from their beloved overlord, whose legacy lived on in their hearts.
Jane's arrival in the grand capital of Rudy's dynasty didn't go unnoticed. Lu Bela, the guardian of the dynasty's defenses, greeted her. "You came sooner than I expected," Lu Bela remarked with a hint of surprise. "I have never seen you do something so quick."
Jane's expression was stern as she responded, "You know why. Now, where is he?"
Lu Bela seemed to realize that Jane had little patience for delays. "Oh, looks like you are already aware of the guest."
Jane's response was equally direct. "I prefer calling him an imposter."
Unexpectedly, the voice of the intruder himself interrupted the conversation. "Ouch, although it is true, it still hurts."
Jane and Lu Bela turned to see the kid who resembled Rudy, who was with Rudy in the mysterious realm beyond the boundaries of time and space.
Jane's reaction was swift and defensive. She conjured a concentrated energy in her hand, prepared to use it as a weapon against the kid. But the kid remained eerily calm.
"I wouldn't suggest that," the kid advised Jane, his tone still measured. "It wouldn't hurt me in the slightest, but it might blow up half of the capital into dust."
Despite her anger and skepticism, Jane decided to engage with the mysterious kid who resembled Rudy. She lowered her hand but her gaze remained sharp, and she asked, "Why are you here?"
The kid replied thoughtfully, "I am not here. This is more like my... projection? I can't step my foot on any place, otherwise it would obliterate the planet and the realm. Come on, you know it, Blue Moon Princess."
Jane's frustration grew as the kid seemed to play games with her. She insisted, "Stop playing around. I asked why are you here, imposter?"
The kid feigned offense and remarked, "Is this a way to treat a guest? I am offended by the hospitality."
Jane's patience was wearing thin, and she didn't hold back in her anger. "Just be glad that you are alive after showing up here uninvited. I have every reason to remove you from existence."
The kid's demeanor shifted, and he turned more serious. "Oh, and I thought I would be welcomed here. Don't you want to know where your beloved Rudy is?"
Jane's eyes narrowed, and she spoke with conviction, "Do you think I would fall for a trick like that? If Rudy was around somewhere, he would have come to us, or I would have sensed him. My senses are spread across the universe. I can sense any major danger or power interfering with the universe."
The kid acknowledged her power, noting, "Of course, I will never doubt the power of your blood, or rather... Nyxia's blood. You should be grateful to her, you know?"
"It feels like you don't value your life. Stop with your lame jokes and start talking," Jane warned.
"Fine." The kid chuckled wryly as he lowered his gaze. "State your business here and leave. Don't test my patience."
The kid sighed and gave in, saying, "Fine." He looked at Rudy's statue and revealed, "Rudy is currently in the same state."
"..."
The kid continued to test Jane's patience. He explained, "I talked with Rudy. He wanted to know how all of you were doing. He had something to say to you all so I am here as his messenger."
