SON OF THE HERO KING

Chapter 568 528: CHOICE (1)

Echidna had many small goals in the upcoming conflicts and while they were all relatively easy to accomplish she had to make sure everything worked for the better.

The path toward the mastery of her power was slow but incredible.

Using the Earth element as the base, evolving it to gravity and finally transforming it in the absolute destruction that was a black hole by compressing the weight to the utmost degree.

While Nuwa had shown an unexpected talent and managed to directly reach the power of Gravity, there was one individual that intrigued her.

'That maid was interesting.'

Echidna sighed as the next gate was getting destroyed and the pure energy filled her body.

Milia. Nothing more than a cow woman. A weak beast woman with no special qualities or skills. No hidden bloodline.

Even so, this woman was the one who ended up having the highest compatibility with her blood. To the point of creating a zone similar to the path she once used.

The endless shadows.

'I would have loved to observe her more but I had to make a decision.'

In the end, Milia was nothing more than a failed product.

Nuwa meanwhile was the result of years of research.

Using the blood of Asmodeus and her, mixing their divinity and bringing a body that has the potential to evolve limitlessly until up to the demigod level at least.

There was so much potential. So much buried.

'If only that damned Dwarf did not intervene.:

She would have been reborn in the perfect body. She would have grown far faster and by now she would have already regained her prowess as a demigod and much more.

'But it's also good.'

A scientist had to be prepared for the unexpected and use it as a way to further growth.

Her goal had always been the same —- Witnessing the birth of the absolute being.

The creation of a new god. Doing the impossible and breaking the unbreakable wall that was transcendence.

Nothing in this world could compare to the potential Nuwa had — At least this was what she believed until now.

"I came to take a look because of what he said. But I must say — This is truly surprising."

Echidna stopped, for the third time in her life she felt a chill go down her spine, her instincts screaming at her about an incredible danger that could threaten her life.

Even so, she was Echidna, the mother of thousands of monsters.

Her eyes flickered and she finally turned towards the unexpected voice.

Behind her, there should have been nothing other than a void. The results of devouring the previous gate without hesitation and disturbing the equilibrium of this zone

But in the same void —stood a man.

Short golden hair, a handsome face, and a leisurely gate.

But what captured her attention were the striking two blue orbs. Eyes blue like the sky or the surface of the sea, giving an illusion of wideness with no limit.

For the first time in her life, Echidna felt loss.

She knew who it was. Even without looking at his recognizable features, she could deduce who it was from the memories of Nuwa.

But this was why Echidna was even more lost for words.

Sol Dragona Luxuria.

A young boy born from the union of Mars Luxuria and Blaze Dragons. Someone who barely came of ages and who, based on Nuwa's memories, was not even a Duke yet.

"Sol~!…"

Many thoughts flew past her mind as her expression morphed into one of genuine joy.

"Do not talk to me in such an endearing way. You are not Nuwa."

The smile froze and her expression cooled down with it.

"To think the Prince would grow so fast."

"I have heard this same expression so many times, it's boring."

He took a step forward, until he was only a few centimeters away from her, forcing her to look up at him.

This was pretty humiliating for Echidna who had been used to be treated as a queen

"I know who you are. I understand the current situation and I honestly have many things to ask you."

Echidna bites her teeth.

"You are pretty calm despite knowing who you are facing."

She forced herself to stand tall but all she received was a mocking smile from the one facing her.

"I am not calm. As I said, I am surprised. To think the great and legendary Echidna would be reduced to nothing but a mere parasite who needs the body of a little girl to survive."

Echidna gritted her teeth and was about to lash out when she saw his finger shining with a golden light as it slowly approached her.

Instantly, her hackles were raised and she tried to move away, only to realize that she was no more in the Zone of the Bai Hu but in a different place.

'This should be his dimension.'

"As I thought, there are no changes. I guess even though you are just a parasite now you are still a demigod, huh."

Echidna tried to accelerate the power of her black hole.

She wasn't just able to absorb the energy from objects and the like. It was also possible for her to destroy and absorb organic matter.

The dimension itself was another thing she could target.

'Even though he has a dimension, the power a Duke can use with his dimension should be abyssal.'

She was forced to stop her prejudice when she realized that no matter how fast the blackhole accelerated, no energy was drawn.

In fact, the young prince was simply observing her acting, with a benign smile, as if looking at a young child acting unreasonably.

"I will be direct. You now have two choices."

The golden light flashed once again, giving her a feeling of danger.

She had the illusion that a giant pair of scissors was hanging above her head, ready to bisect her at any moment.

This was becoming very problematic.
