It was a barbarian.
He stood tall at a respectable three meters, and his perfectly chiseled upper body, which was left bare, was covered with numerous scars.
His hair was cropped short and spiked upwards neatly, and his deep set eyes felt like it could penetrate through all veils to see the truth within.
A greatsword with a deeply terrifying aura which was as big and as tall as him hung vertically behind his back and completed his godlike look.
He was the epitome of male sexuality, and all the female Primals found themselves swallowing their saliva as they fought to regain control of their emotions.
“So it’s Primal Dul’Akharat! It has been awhile. You look as hot and as sexy as ever! Wahahaha! How many of these female Primals just swallowed their salivas when they saw you? I heard three! Primal Li Xia, Primal Theodora and Primal Veranas! Hahaha!” Old Wabetto laughed out loudly as he greeted the godly Barbarian.
“Primal Wabetto. You mock a junior so mercilessly. What did I do to deserve this?” Primal Dul’Akharat smiled modestly and sighed in mock distress.
Primal Dul’Akharat laughed at Old Wabetto’s words good naturedly and went over to his side, much to the utter irritation of all the female Primals in the room.
“Hahahaha! Good! Good!” Old Wabetto said with great satisfaction.
The Primals, the most powerful beings of the known universe, gathered around and talked about meaningless and light topics as they waited for the meeting to start.
Because although they were the most powerful in the universe, the title of the richest and most influential does not belong to them.
It belonged to the mysterious El’Taras.
They all knew for a fact that knowledge is power.
Without knowledge, they would be blind as a bat to the crucial happenings of the universe.
And in the grand scheme of things with the threat of the new universe looming so ominously, being blind was tantamount to failing to prepare, which was in effect preparing for failure.
Chairman El’Taras and his clan’s Omniscient Eyes had become, in their eyes, the most important tool they had in their effort to search and prepare for the inevitable invasion from the new universe.
And so, they waited patiently for Chairman El’Taras to appear.
They didn’t have to wait for long.
Less than a minute after Primal Dul’Akharat’s arrival, the space at the head of the massive meeting table shimmered lightly and Chairman El’Taras appeared with Director Sands standing respectfully behind him.
“Respected Primals.” Chairman El’Taras bowed humbly in greeting to the powerhouses the moment he appeared.
Behind him, Director Sands did the same.
“Chairman El’Taras. Good to see you. Now, let us begin!” Primal Dul’Akharat boomed from the side of the room.
Being the undisputed number one Primal in terms of strength, he took it upon himself to speak up for the Primals.
And in typical Barbarian frankness, he immediately pushed for the meeting to start.
“As you wish, Respected Primal Dul’Akharat. I apologize in advance for the spatial rearrangement.” Chairman El’Taras replied politely and gestured for Director Sands to start.
Director Sands waved his hand, and without physically moving the Primals, he rearranged space around them and in an instant, they were all arranged neatly around a massive circular table.
Of course, if the Primals decide to resist, Director Sands’ skill would fizzle. But they didn’t, and the meeting could begin immediately.
“Who is Elliot, and what is his secret?” Primal Dul’Akharat started calmly and completely to the point.
Chairman El’Taras had expected his directness, and was not flustered at all. His biggest secret wasn’t Elliot, it was Jessica.
It wasn’t that Jessica was more important than Elliot, they were both equally important. It was merely that Elliot and his mysterious power were no secret at all. There was no point antagonizing the most powerful beings in the known universe maintaining information blackout on a topic that would probably be fully researched and see the full light of day within a short amount of time.
“Elliot is a native of the Games of Planet Earth. He triggered an evolution when he consumed two things – “New Universe Life Energy” in the form of seeds scattered around Earth in the location where he was born, and “New Universe Death Energy” in the form of deconstructed living armor he got from a disciple of the Fortune Hermit.” Chairman replied succinctly and tossed samples of the two energy sources he mentioned on the table.
Instantly, the powerful senses of all hundred Primals zoomed in onto the samples.
The nearest Primals took the samples physically and studied them carefully for a few moments before passing it down to the next Primal.
“Interesting. Where are the rest? These can’t be all you found.” A narrow-eyed, dark-skinned male Elf seated all the way across the room from Chairman El’Taras said in an unfriendly tone.
“Primal Dimitri. Elliot got most of the Life Energy Source. We secured a big batch of the Death Energy Source, and we are currently in the process of researching ways to replicate them, as well as mass producing scanners to be deployed all around the known universe.” Chairman El’Taras replied politely.
“Keep up the good work, Chairman El’Taras.” A beautiful, white skinned Elven woman said softly with a mesmerizing smile. Turning to the rest of the Primals, and towards Primal Dul’Akharat in particular, she asked “May I consume them?”
“Primal Seth’Aramir, you took the words out of my mouth. Please consume them and divine for us where we can find more of these items.” Primal Dul’Akharat nodded and said.
The beautiful Primal Seth’Aramir nodded at him and immediately crushed both items and absorbed all of their particles in a single breath.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
HUM.
The strings of fate began to tremble lightly.
