Their form stood out in the twilight, a humanoid silhouette adorned with majestic wings; their eyes shone intensely, not as a mere manifestation of power, but as an entity that challenged supremacy and invincibility.

In the eyes of Alm and Bruno, there was no fear, only determination. Upon hearing the words and feeling that presence, their souls instantly ignited, releasing the extreme hatred accumulated over millennia of pain in the world. There were no doubts: that was the will and true consciousness of the queen.

She silently observed the two souls with curiosity, trying to find the reason why her laws didn’t control and affect these two. Their hatred was tangible and admirable. However, in a few seconds, the pair of golden eyes trembled slightly, surprised by something beyond their expectations.

The balance of Yin and Yang seemed to bend before those two beings as if all the duality of the universe were converging towards them. Before their eyes, the opposites that composed the essence of universal life merged. An abnormal vibration echoed through all forms of life, and the queen’s eyes narrowed as if she were recognizing the impossible origin of it.

’Heaven’s Will...’ She murmured mentally.

Then, before her eyes, a unique figure emerged from the twilight of that fusion. He soon opened his eyes, fixing them on the queen, who recognized him immediately. It was the exotic villain completely out of her control, the sole responsible for annihilating her entire domain, along with all life in one of her universes.

"I understand. I wondered how you managed to do that. I even gave orders to invade that dead universe and capture him, but there was nothing left there. Looks like the Heaven’s Will was creative this time; it hid you very well." The emotionless female voice sounded gently.

"Hidden? Hahahahah." Then the reply came dryly. "Didn’t like my gift in that primitive place and that other exotic universe? A bitch like you is not easily satisfied." Although Alm and Bruno said that, they didn’t know who was that ’him’ the queen was talking about.

"Hm? So those anomalies were the work of... no, they were your actions, interesting." She spoke in an almost robotic voice, but in the next second, her eyes gleamed with an extreme predatory malice. "A mere divine soul managing to cross universes? The power he bestowed upon you deserves to be studied. I took a look here out of curiosity, and luckily, I’ve caught you now."

"Hahahahahahahah." Alm’s characteristic villainous laughter echoed. But at the same time, the gaze and posture of that figure were as light as Bruno’s, contrasting completely between them and, at the same time, revealing their true form. Alm and Bruno were one again.

Amidst this laughter, a fluctuation of spatial laws emerged in that world suddenly. At the same time, with a blink of an eye, the pupils of the figure changed, and a vast world seemed to be hidden in the depths of their twilight blue eyes. The entire place trembled, countless runes from the law of space covered the entire area, illuminating everything.

Then, a bluish-gray emanated from within those runes; it was the fusion of the two techniques given by the system used to the limit. The queen narrowed her eyes incredulously at the will coming from a divine being covering everything; even her golden power was momentarily suppressed and violently swept away.

Outside the mental sea, everything happened in a few minutes. The dense smell of blood still lingered in the air, while all the demon beasts and demons were still stunned, watching the hero standing with closed eyes.

THUD!

The muffled sound of a beat reverberated directly from the stationary hero. Along with the sound, a multicolored divine light ignited in the world, blinding all those who fell to the ground motionless. The multicolored light and a presence resonated with the entire universe; immediately, all forms of life, from the simplest to the most powerful anywhere, could see and feel him. But their bodies simply seemed unable to withstand being close to that divinity.

In the midst of the cosmos, a golden silhouette spread its wings; along with it, the laws of the entire universe bowed. It looked to a distant place and saw the figure of the hero looking at her with extreme mockery and scorn. Bruno and Alm... had taken control of the hero’s body!

"These techniques... I underestimated you a little." She spoke dryly. "Devouring God Spatial Technique and Emperor’s Domain Technique. The Heaven’s Will granted you both techniques from those Chaos Dragons... but it should be impossible for anyone other than those two to merge them so perfectly. You are indeed a missionary above the average."

The hero’s eyes shifted slightly with that information. Alm and Bruno used the element of surprise, taking advantage of being inside the hero’s mental sea, to employ those techniques. It was unrealistic to think that they would easily capture or kill the queen’s will, so they used it to surprise her and expel her will from the hero’s body.

Now, they had taken over the hero’s body and had some weapons to use. As for that figure in the distance, it wasn’t the real queen, only her will along with a bit of her real consciousness; but fighting with just her soul seemed like suicide. They clenched the fists of that body, feeling its entire cultivation and trying to adapt quickly to the new situation.

The golden silhouette noticed their intentions, and a slight laughter of disdain echoed. "Hm? Now that you have this body, do you think you can do something? I understand... even a cornered ant raises its antennae to the sky in despair."

"Hahaha, you arrogant and motherfucker bitch. With just a will, do you think you can do something?" The hero spoke, and immediately his eyes gleamed. On one side, a Yin rune, on the other, a Yang emerged.

CRACK!!!

The entire universe seemed to crack and tremble along with the Qi and laws that governed it. Weaker life forms fainted, and even the most powerful were paralyzed, spitting blood in the face of the magnitude of the event. The queen’s eyes changed to an amused expression, and then the silhouette flapped its wings in perfect synchrony.

CRACK!!!

The entire universe was split into two courts that eclipsed all stars and sources of light. One side shone in a radiant golden, while the other exhibited a deep grayish tone. Both seemed to collide in a duel of universal scales, an indescribable battle impossible to conceive took place before everyone.

In the midst of the cosmos, already far from that enclosed place created by the hero, the golden silhouette flapped its wings, and the golden power spread gently. Alm and Bruno had blood streaming from the eyes of that body, and their faces seemed to contort in extreme effort and will.

This was the first time they used the total union of the Yin and Yang of their divine souls. And that body, despite being the most powerful in that universe, was still a mortal body and couldn’t use even a fraction of their real power.

As for the queen’s will, it was just that. A will, relying only on her manipulation. But her control and mastery were invincible and light-years away from Alm and Bruno. This fight clearly offered no possibility of victory.
