Chapter 222: Alexia’s Background
Two Hours, Twenty-five minutes, and forty-three seconds.
That was the exact amount of time it took Arthur to snap out of his shock due to the information he just received.
Comprehending it, was a totally different case altogether.
"Are you okay?"
"Am I okay??!!!
You just told me that there existed more than one multiverse and there are beings powerful enough to possess the very concepts that these multiverses run on so forgive me if I spent a few hours trying to take that all in!"
Arthur stood up and stretched his body before turning to Lucifer and continuing.
"I only wanted to know how you met Alexia, however, you went on to blow my mind by dropping such absurd-sounding information.
Well done great-grandpa, well done!"
The young progenitor ran his hand through his hair as he heaved a sigh of exasperation, before abruptly turning around and glaring at Lucifer once more.
Lucifer chuckled a bit before standing up and walking toward the throne.
"Come on boy, I’d show you the real treasures I left behind as I tell you how I met that child.
The talk about the great cosmic powers was simply so that you can understand what about Alexia, makes her the ’most dangerous candidate of time’ to ever exist."
Arthur rose his eyebrow in surprise upon hearing Alexia’s title but he shrugged his shoulders and followed Lucifer.
The duo walked behind the throne and entered the door hidden by the curtains as Lucifer began speaking.
"Alexandria Vladicur..."
"Is that her full name?"
"Part of it, she has at least three more no one knows about. That’s why she doesn’t care that people know the first two."
"Is that so...?"
"Yes, now then. How about I begin with who exactly Alexia is."
Lucifer had a wry smile on his face as he began speaking. However, unbeknownst to Arthur, the hand Lucifer had behind his back was gradually turning translucent.
◇ ◇ ◇
Alexandria Vladicur
Known by many, as Alexia Vladi.
To start with, she was not from the same multiverse as Lucifer. She was a being from another.
Daughter of Roseborn Vladi XIV, the Supreme Ruler of the Vladi universal Supercluster.
The Vladi universal supercluster was one that was over 100 million years old. Ever since Roseborn Vladi I, set out from his universe to conquer the surrounding ones.
It went from the Vladi Inter-universal empire to the Vladi universal cluster, and finally, the ’Vladi Universal Supercluster’.
The amount of power and influence Roseborn Vladi I possessed, was unmatched, even among other beings who had done the same things as he did.
Roseborn Vladi I sired many children with many women, each of them inheriting his immense talent. They all rose to power very quickly and he awarded them by granting universes in the supercluster to them.
As he could not rule all these universes as their masters, he gave this task to his children. That way, he was able to consolidate most of the power in his family and reduced the chances of treason or betrayal.
After all, his children were very loyal to him, both out of respect...and fear.
Sadly, Roseborn Vladi I, was not immortal.
Even after attaining power on the superior stage of the monarch realm, he did not achieve cosmic superiority and since he was from a race that did not possess eternal life, he eventually grew closer to his death.
The old Flugel searched for many ways to extend his lifespan but failed woefully.
To the outside world, Roseborn Vladi I, passed away, after naming his eldest son as his successor on his deathbed.
His death made many see this as a chance to take a piece out of his great empire, but his successor, Roseborn Vladi II, showed them that he was not to be underestimated.
He achieved power in the monarch realm and showed all does who coveted his father’s empire that he was the new ruler, and nothing would threaten his rule.
As a pureblood Flugel like his father, Roseborn Vladi II met his end a few million years later, also not having achieved cosmic superiority.
Like his father, he also proclaimed his successor on his deathbed, the most talented of the children he sired, his fifteenth child.
Roseborn Vladi III, rose to prominence after his father’s death, much to the anger of his elder siblings.
They plotted against him and tried to usurp the throne, however, Roseborn Vladi III made short work of them and quelled their rebellion instantly.
To others, it showed how much more powerful than them he was, but to his siblings, it was much worse than that.
They discovered a secret, one that made them regret ever daring to covet the throne.
Unfortunately, they never lived to tell this secret.
The Vladi Universal Supercluster stood strong again after millions and millions of years, expanding with each new ruler being more powerful than the last.
However, for some reason, the members of the Vladi Household never achieved cosmic superiority.
Nevertheless, they did not lose out in power to other households that had sub-cosmic beings or lower-levelled cosmic beings.
This was the case, until the first son of Roseborn Vladi XIII, became a sub-cosmic being.
To those of the Vladi household, this was a cause for celebration. Roseborn Vladi XIII also wasted no time in naming his son as his successor.
Many households, who were vassals to the Vladi household, offered up their daughters as brides to be for the next Supreme ruler of the Vladi Supercluster.
The crown prince sired many children under his ’father’s orders’. He did this for thousands of years until he had over five hundred adult children.
Nevertheless, his father declared that he was unsatisfied with all his grandchildren.
The reason for this was not known to the public, but only Roseborn Vladi XIII and his son knew.
The 176th child of the crown prince was a girl he named Alexandria.
She was the most talented of all his children and even though her grandfather always expressed his disappointment in all of them, it was no small secret that he favoured the young girl a lot more than the others.
When she grew older and manifested her unique skill, Roseborn Vladi XIII decided that Alexia would be the next ruler of the Supercluster after his son.
This shocked many as the Supreme ruler had never decided on their successor’s successor before, but to everyone’s surprise, the crown prince did not object and accepted his father’s decision.
Alexia, however, could not care less for the throne.
She had always been a wilful girl since she was young, and she didn’t want to be constrained by her grandfather’s decision.
Nevertheless, she was wise enough not to openly oppose the Supreme ruler and kept her thoughts to herself.
When her father began suggesting potential suitors for her, she finally decided to rebel a bit.
She left her home supercluster and ventured out into the multiverse beyond, hoping to hide out somewhere, at least until her father stopped bugging her.
It was on this runaway journey, that she met him.
She had heard stories of him, but she never expected to encounter him unexpectedly.
Young Alexia had just succeeded in clearing a dungeon she found, taking all the treasures in it with her when she was suddenly attacked by a candidate of destruction.
The candidate needed one of the things from that dungeon and attacked Alexia hoping to get it.
Right before Alexia thought she would meet her end, ’He’ appeared.
The ’Most Powerful Candidate of Destruction ever’, Lucifer Morningstar.
He swooped in to save the day as he executed the rogue candidate of destruction, preventing Alexia’s untimely death in the process.
Alexia’s admiration for him, or rather, the power he possessed, shot through the roof and she pestered him for many years, all with the aim of becoming his disciple.
Eventually, she got the old devil King to agree and that was how one of the Deadliest duos ever was formed.
Lucifer did indeed train Alexia, providing her with resources to reach higher heights and supporting her all the way.
When Alexia became a sub-cosmic being a few thousand years later, the duo began the second part of their escapades.
After becoming sub-cosmic, the young Alexia was now able to hold her own against candidates and began joining in on Lucifer’s battles with them.
As she was not a candidate herself, she was able to fight both candidates of time and destruction without any repercussions from the Watchers.
To rein her in, they offered her the position of a candidate of time, as she also possessed an off-the-charts affinity for the law.
Her unique skill, ’Ruler of Time’, only made her seem like a more attractive target to the watchers, whose job was also to scout potential candidates.
Nevertheless, Alexia refused to become a candidate because of the restrictions applied. When her grandfather discovered this, he was enraged that she rejected such an opportunity.
He sent out his children to bring her back forcefully, but they ended up almost killing her when she resisted.
And as if the law of bad luck was having a blast that day, Lucifer appeared.
