I Became a Level -99 Vicious Lord

"Don't go… please… I'm begging you… please don't go… Huhu… Huhuhu."

Ariel cried out as she stumbled to her feet as Kairos disappeared completely.

"Huhu…. Huhuhu…. Huhuk.."

Ariel was sobbing so hard, Otto wondered if she was the same elder sister.

Crossing over 450 years, nearly achieving a miracle, who could have known it would end so abruptly and emptily?

"Your Majesty! Where are you going? Leaving us behind, Your Majesty!"

"Brother, Brother!"

"Damn it! How can this be happening! Your Majesty, your Majesty!!!"

The Soul Knights also cried out and grieved for the vanished Kairos.

No one had expected Kairos to simply ascend after slaying Argonne the Great.

"My God."

Camille was equally surprised.

"Elder Kairos is gone…."

Only one person.

"Hmm."

Only Otto appeared to be pondering, an intrigued expression on his face.

"Your Highness, is it truly the case that Elder Kairos has disappeared?"

"I suppose so???"

Otto responded as if to question himself.

"Seems like he got forcibly banished from the world for trying to wield his full power from his prime."

" Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"I can't really explain it properly."

"What?"

"The concept is a little hard to put into words."

After saying that, Otto fell silent again, lost in thought.

* IF YOU ARE READING THIS ON A SITE OTHER THAN GALAXYTRANSLATION97, IT'S STOLEN *

‘Has he completely vanished, or has he been swallowed by the Void Realm? It doesn't seem like total annihilation. It's more like being deprived of the right to live as a living being.'

Otto didn't think Kairos soul was gone.

Then….

‘Maybe I could bring him back?'

It seemed worth a try.

The Book of Carnage was a kind of medium, or ID pass that allowed access to the Void Realm, so it seemed possible.

‘I'll give it a try.'

It was too heartbreaking to let Kairos go like this.

He felt sorry for Kairos, who had been through so much, having finally met Ariel and get happiness at last, only to ascend.

Of course, Kairos brought it on himself.

‘What's the difference between selling one's soul to a devil and being forcibly ascended? It's all the same. Making all that bullshit. Tsk.'

Otto recalled Kairos falsely claiming to have his own special secret.

‘So much for bluffing.'

With that thought, Otto pulled out the Book of Carnage.

"I'm going to go bring him back."

Otto declared.

"…..!"

"…..!"

"…..!"

"…..!"

At this, everyone was surprised.

No one could understand how one could bring back Kairos who had disappeared.

Except for one person.

"I-Is that true?"

Ariel, tears streaming down her face, grasped Otto's pants and sobbed.

"Can you really do that? Really? Huhu! Bring Kairos back?"

"Yes, well. First, I'll give it a try…"

"If you bring him back, I'll do anything! I'll do whatever you ask! So please… Huhu…. sniff! Please…"

"Just calm down."

Otto soothed Ariel, who was close to hyperventilating.

"I'll give it a try, so please calm down."

"Huhuh…. Huhuhu…."

* IF YOU ARE READING THIS ON A SITE OTHER THAN GALAXYTRANSLATION97, IT'S STOLEN *

Otto couldn't bring himself to encourage her to get her hopes up.

Ariel looked too heartbroken to raise her hopes then to let it drop.

‘So this is what love really is.'

As Otto looked at Ariel, he could feel how much she loved Kairos.

A love that hasn't changed after 450 years….

"Is it because she's an elf?

No matter what the cause may be, Ariel's love for Kairos is genuine and true.

‘I would be nice if I could bring him back for her sake.'

While thinking that, Otto opened the Book of Carnage.

The timing was right.

Thanks to the slaughter of Argonne's subordinates, Otto had enough soul energy in the Book of Carnage.

If there hadn't been any soul energy, he wouldn't have even dared to access the Void Realm. It was truly fortunate.

He can't just kill in a hurry to save Kairos, right?

It's not like villains pop out of the ground.

‘Let's do it.'

Opening the Book of Carnage, Otto immediately utilized the power of omnipotence.

Since it claimed to be omnipotent, he tried to access the Void Realm.

*Flash*

The Book of Carnage began to emit a faint light.

And….

*Shhhh*

Otto began to fade away.

Similar to Kairos.

"Y-Your Highness!"

A panicked Camille yelled at Otto.

"It's okay, I'll be back in a minute."

Otto responded as he continued to focus his mind.

As a result.

‘I got it.'

Suddenly, Otto found himself in the Void Realm.

The Void Realm could appear in any form, and the number of spaces was nearly infinite.

In fact, the Void Realm where Otto is now, belonged to the Order of Atropos.

An Order that Kairos had once been a part of.

"ॐ मणि पदमे हुं… ॐ मणि पदमे हुं… ॐ मणि पदमे हुं… ॐ मणि पदमे हुं… ॐ मणि पदमे हुं…."

Kairos was sitting there, cross-legged and deep in meditation.

"Hey!"

Otto shouted at Kairos in the distance.

"Hmm?"

Kairos opened his eyes slightly and looked around, then was startled to see Otto running towards him.

"P-Pansy?! How did you get here?"

"How did I get here? There's always a way to get here."

"Pansy, you little shit, this is not the place for you to come in and out as you please."

Kairos scolded Otto.

"If you make a habit of coming here, you slippery rascal, even you…"

"Enough already."

Otto cut Kairos off.

"What are you even doing here anyway? You just disappeared a minute ago, and you came here to meditate?"

"I've been here for over ten years now."

"What?!"

"The concept of time is completely different between the Void Realm and the real world."

"R-Really?"

"Anyway, what's going on?"

"I came to fetch you, that's what's going on."

"Pansy, you mean you're here to pick me up?"

Kairos was surprised.

"Is that even possible?"

"I came after you because I thought it might be possible."

Otto frowned and grabbed Kairos by the collar.

"Come on."

"L-Let go!"

"Ah, well, let's go then."

"Wait, just wait a minute!"

Kairos pleaded toward Otto.

"I still have something to do!"

"Things to do?"

"I was on the verge of becoming a constellation!"

"What kind of bullshit is that?"

"Look."

Kairos showed Otto the scripture he had been working on.

"Within this scripture resides my power."

"Hmm?"

"I'll be done soon, just wait."

Kairos asked Otto's understanding, then continued to work on the scripture.

*Rustle*

*Scribble*

Then the entire place changed.

The changed space was a vast library, an infinite grand library that stretched endlessly.

*Thump*

Kairos placed his scripture on an empty shelf in that grand library and turned to look at Otto.

"It's done."

"What did you just do?"

"This library."

Kairos answered.

"It houses the power of the gods of the entire universe."

"Really?"

"Stop!"

Kairos quickly snatched the book away from Otto's curious hands.

"If you mess with the books here, you will never return to reality!"

"I-Is that so?"

"This is the place where the power of the gods is stored!"

"But why put your books in here? You're not even a God."

"I am a God now."

"Huh?"

Otto tilted his head as if to say what bullshit.

"You're a God?"

"That's right!"

* IF YOU ARE READING THIS ON A SITE OTHER THAN GALAXYTRANSLATION97, IT'S STOLEN *

"The god of drunkenness? Or the god of binge drinking? Or perhaps the god of vomiting…"

"Pansy, you little shit!"

Kairos snapped angrily.

"I am the God of Civil Unrest!"

"The God of civil unrest…?"

"In the future."

Kairos announced.

"When the ruling authorities of our world have become tyrannical and the suffering of the people has reached its limit… then my authority will descend."

"….!"

"All my life, I've been searching for a way to save those who are suffering. But with only one body, and so many people to save."

"So you're saying by becoming a God, you'll be able to help suffering people in the future?"

"Yes!"

Kairos nodded in agreement.

"If anyone earnestly desires salvation, then my power will descend upon those who seek to save themselves."

Hearing Kairos' words, Otto realized that he was a true saint.

That he would rise to become a Constellation of Civil Unrest to help those who suffered.

‘Is this why he came to the Void Realm?'

Otto also thought that this might have been Kairos' original plan all along.

‘Perhaps it was all planned.'

Kairos may seem like a drunkard on the outside, but in his mind he was a wizened man.

Not surprisingly, Kairos was a theologian who had studied and deeply understood the doctrines of the Order of Atropos.

In addition, he was trapped in the mace for 450 years in the void, and in his past life, he was an absolute powerhouse who had reached the peak of continental dominance.

Kairos was never a fool.

‘But it's not all bad.'

Thinking that, Otto tugged on Kairos's collar again.

"There's not enough time, let's go."

Otto could definitely feel that time was running out.

He could feel the Book of Carnage's soul energy, which had given him access to the Void Realm, was nearing depletion.

"Are you sure I can go back?"

"Ah! I don't know, let's go now!"

Otto said this and then attempted to leap back into the physical world.

* * * * Read in GalaxyTranslation97 Website * * * *

The space has been changed.

"Heok!"

Kairos gasped in disbelief as he found himself back in the physical world.

"H-Honey!!"

Ariel ran towards Kairos, her face drenched in tears as soon as he appeared.

"A-Ariel."

"Huhuh…. Huhuhu…"

Ariel cried in Kairos's arms for a long while.

She thought she would never see him again, but how lucky she was to be reunited with him like this.

But even that is just for a moment.

"You left me again…?"

Ariel glared at Kairos with eyes tinged with madness.

"I'm truly sorry about that… Huk!"

"Die."

Ariel brandished her spiked club at Kairos.

*Pow!*

*Smack!*

The spiked club landed heavily on Kairos' back, causing a resounding impact.

"Kkwueeeeek!"

Kairos squealed at the top of his lungs.

"You're really going to die! you fucking bastard!"

"A-Ariel!"

"Die. Diieeeeeeee!!!"

Ariel unleashed a barrage of bludgeoning blows at Kairos.

"Aaaaaaaarghhhhh!"

Kyros could do nothing but suffer and take the pummeling until he was a bloody pulp.

Having nearly lost all his strength, Kairos was not only far from his prime in terms of power, but he was also weaker than usual due to his diminished state.

Due to the magnitude of his sins, even if he had retained his strength from his prime, Kairos knew he was in no position to stop Ariel's fury.

"Ah, I don't know anymore."

"Elder Sister, me too!"

"This is our chance!"

Agatho, Hildegard, and Maximus also realized that this was their chance and began stomping on Kairos.

They were infuriated that Kairos had ascended without any discussion, and felt unable to stand for it.

*Stomp*

*Kick*

*Bam* *Pow* *Smack*

"Kwuuuuueeeeeeeeekkk!"

For this, Kairos was thrashed to the ground in the rain by his wife and subordinates, making the sound of a pig being slaughtered.

"…But why is Your Majesty getting involved?"

Camille asked Otto in confusion.

It was because Otto had slyly joined Ariel, Agatho, Hildegard, and Maximus in the midst of all this, and was kicking Kairos.

"It's fun, hehehe."

"……."

"What are you waiting for? Brother don't you want to hit this guy?"

"What?"

"When else will you get the chance to beat him up? Go ahead."

"……."

"I said try it."

"T-Then."

Camille, unable to resist, joined in and proceeded to kick at Kairos.

Just as the old saying goes, an egret shouldn't go with the crow's company, Camille was soon tainted by Otto.
