The leftover of my orange fire was a brand new surface layer that got a glimmering light of orange like little stars spread all over the black curtain of space. The place was deadly quiet, and the new layer looked quite solid.
It was already cooling down, still releasing a thick bellow of white smoke here and there. Seeing this made me realise it wouldn't take longer than two days at most and this new land could be lived on by the angels.
I planned to wait for one more week, and during which I'd go back to the first light planet and moons, do the same there to save myself time.
However, just before I'd leave the surface of that moon and head back to the empty space out there, I spotted something brightening up in the distance.
It looked like a colossal bomb had exploded or something. I went back to space and got to see what was coming.
"Damn those fiends… They didn't just copy the tech of the angels, but added more to it!" In front of me, I saw an endless number of fortresses that belonged to the enemy stacking together, forming a small moon on their own.
That wasn't the problem. The problem was in that ocean of fire coming out from this ball of metal!
I was sure the fiends placed grenades or something inside their fortresses, and now they started detonating everything.
It looked like a small real star was getting born out there, and that star was heading in a fierce speed towards the dark planet and its dark moon.
More fortresses were getting added to this ball of fire, growing it even more while it drew closer at a terrifying speed towards here.
If I let such a thing hit the planet and its moon, then forget about anything I already did! Damn those fiends! They still got such a trick up their sleeves!
And now I had to squeeze my brain cells out, trying to figure out a solution fast and act decisively to stop the incoming threatening star of fire.
Tsk! I hated those friends! Couldn't they give me space to breathe?
For a second there I was sure that the bad luck of the jumpers got to me in a way or another. Or how come when I was this close from dominating this entire quest, I'd be met up with such a scary and terrifying attack?
The trigger for the time loop lies in the dark planet and its moons. And seeing such an attack coming here alarmed me the grave mistake I committed.
Even if I got the upper hand, I still got such a soft spot here on this damn dark planet and moons. Even if I was this close from crushing the enemy and winning the quest, I shouldn't lower my guard and leave this place for long.
Or else the enemy would find something unbelievable like this and use it to trigger the time loop bomb hidden deep within this dark planet and moons.
This… This time loop… This damn region… This was my Achilies heel!
I should never leave this place for long, or else I'd lose everything!
If the time loop got activated, and I was inside, then everything would be gone!
And if I was luckily out when it'd be activated, then there was no guarantee that the entire world here would be accessible to me again.
That alone was enough to make me fail the entire quest, lose everything, and I'd never want to see such a thing, not when I got the power to stop it!
"I swear I won't rest until I'll kill all the damn fiends in this place and back at my universe," I took such a heavy oath, declaring these fiends and their allies as the sworn enemies of mine.
I and them would never get along no matter what, would always be like fire and water anywhere and anytime we'd meet.
Screw them all!
The answer to such a crisis came swiftly to my mind, making me grin evilly. The enemy thought they'd place me in a tight spot.
Least they knew I got tons of things on my side, and they were enough to solve any problem or crisis for me.
The real asset of mine was my strength and vast and different abilities, treasures, and forces.
And now… To solve this crisis I'd have to use one of my abilities, a technique that I haven't used for a long time already.
"Time to merge you together," I muttered while leading my chariot directly towards the rapidly approaching, dangerously looking, ball of fire.
To deal with such impossible to stop or deal with a colossal ball of fire, I got to merge my two techniques together.
This wasn't only going to increase the number and strength of my threads, but would also form a giant black hole.
I used this before to stop the grand army that appeared from an outer battlefield. There I used this technique to suck dry all these forces, sending them all to my shadow world, letting them get absorbed and digested there.
And I planned to do the same with such a small star getting closer to me.
The enemy didn't know I had such an ability, or else they'd not have used such a way to deal with me and the dark planet behind.
*Rumble!*
The moment the black hole got formed, two mighty suction forces started to collide with each other. It seemed the ball of fire coming towards here wasn't that simple.
It got its own gravitational force, one that was enough to contend against my dark hole's gravity.
But how could such a thing compete against an entire world? And the shadow world on top of that?
My shadow world was going to grow to be a kingdom. It wasn't the self confined world like before, but one that got opened and expanded over the true vast shadow world.
