Once everything calmed down and the wild energy no longer caused havoc within his body and in his Soul World, Khal closed the black hole and looked around.
"This is pure chaos..." Khal materialized in empty air above the land of his Soul World and scratched his head with a somewhat awkward smile.
Whoosh!
While Khal was examining the now almost wasteland below him, on his side a small gate appeared which soon opened its doors and Neo’s figure emerged from the other side
"I swear for the Lord’s sake that if you don’t notify me next time I will..." Neo massaged his neck with a somewhat painful expression, seemingly because he hit it real hard when he was blasted into the Soul Prison.
However, his words came to an abrupt halt the very instant his gaze shifted to the scenery below, his motions freezing almost as if he just become an ice sculpture!
"Cough... So you see... The thing is that I-" Khal wished to explain what happened when suddenly Neo turned his body toward him and began to mumble words he didn’t really understand.
"..kill you..."
"Huh? Did you say something?"
"I said I will fucking kill you!" Neo snapped his head toward Khal and like a wild beast that became crazy pounced on his floating figure.
"What the-" Khal was taken by surprise, but his reaction speed was still top-notch hence he easily shifted his body and avoided Neo’s attack.
But it seemed he has neglected a crucial factor he shouldn’t have to.
"YOU FUCKING BITCH!!! I FUCKIng hate y..!!!" shouting despite falling toward the ground, Neo raised a hand and flipped his middle finger at the still floating Khal above him while his figure quickly became a small dot and his voice became quiet with each passing second.
"Oh... Wait, what?" snapping out of his daze when he realized Neo was incapable of flight, his body swayed and in a flash appeared miles below Neo’s falling body.
"There... You go." catching Neo with both hands, Khal vanished into thin air once again and in an instant appeared on the ground.
"If you are a real man you will stand still and let me kill you!" once his feet were on solid ground, Neo quickly turned around while at the same time he swung his fist at Khal’s face.
Thud!
"And if you are a real man you will calm down." grabbing Neo’s fist with a palm without any effort, Khal sighed and continued, "Look, this was something I had no control over. It happened without any prior sign and if I would have not done what I had to I would be dead a long time ago, including also you!"
"You..." clenching his teeth from frustration, Neo pulled his hand back and without saying anything else turned around.
Watching as Neo walked before a pile of debris that previously was his home and started to grab pieces after pieces with heavy movements, Khal sighed and waved his hand.
In an instant, using more than 500,000 essences from his more than 3 million reserves, Khal reconstructed the building together with the whole village and the lake in the distance.
In just under a few seconds, everything that once was demolished got rebuilt as if time had been rewound.
Neo’s eyes flashed with surprise when he saw this and looked at Khal over his shoulder.
However, as if realizing something his complexion turned indifferent, and without saying a thing quickly walked inside the building.
[It seems he has not changed at all, not even a bit.]
"But if you think about it, it is somewhat understandable. After all, the reason why he has to live here is all because of me and now everything he has worked hard forgot almost destroyed entirely." Khal sighed helplessly.
’Furthermore, after explaining my past with Liza, with Nancy... His behavior toward me became rather cold. Though, it is not like I am not aware of the reason.’
[Maybe you should talk with him then?]
’Yeah, that would be the best idea, but not know. He is still mad over what happened just now so I should wait until he calms down.’ Khal decided on the matter.
Then, after taking one final glance at the building in front of him, Khal vanished from his Soul World and opened his eyes back to the real world.
[Congratulations! You have achieved Supreme Mastery Level on the path of Divine Soul!]
[The Divine Soul Sutra now acknowledges you as its new master!]
[Now you are qualified to ascend into the Fourth Realm! Do you wish to ascend?]
Khal listened to the words in his head in silence, and after watching how the scroll from his hands turned into a black light that vanished into his consciousness, he nodded;
"Yes, I do."
Whoosh!
A moment later when his whole body was engulfed in silver light, Khal watched with a calm gaze how the scenery around him finally changed.
’Finally... After more than six years I have reached the Fourth Real-" Khal closed his eyes as he sighed a relief, but just before he could have finished his sentence his eyes snapped open and a cold glint flashed within them.
Swish!
Clang!
"Huh? That uniform... Who the hell are you?" pressing a long silver sword firmly against Khal’s dagger, a young man wearing silver armor looked baffled when he saw the silver robe on Khal’s body.
"That same question goes also to you!" Khal spoke coldly, but it was not even a second later when a cold flash appeared in his vision, targeting his neck with obvious killing intent!
"You guys really don’t know what is good for you," Khal said calmly with a hint of coldness, and without any hesitation turned his dagger into a fan and activated his Hell Blaze.
"Blazing Lotus!"
Whoooosh!
BOOOOM!
Khal’s figure quickly exploded into a ball of frenzied flame which soon shaped into the appearance of a lotus, forcing the young man and the other individual that attacked him to retreat without a second thought.
