Chapter 298 The Goal Of Lara

298 The Goal Of Lara

“Firstly, I was aware of your existence the entire time. I didn’t think you’d come to me so soon, and I also did not plan to strike at you just yet, but you surprised me for sure,” Dante began as he glanced at Lara’s pristine pale skin that seemed just healthy enough to not be taken as a vampire.

“Secondly, you are not my match. The entire time we fought, I was toying with you. You came and started talking big, and I was not in the mood to waste time, so you fell under my illusion from that very moment.”

“I mean, seriously. I do not need to summon Levi out to talk to him and have him do his work, and summoning him out during battle would be a foolish rookie mistake.”

Dante folded his legs as he glanced at the slowly-coming-to-terms Lara. “Unfortunately for me, and Levi here, we can both see what happens within a person’s illusory world. Killing my Truth Beast? You’re quite capable, huh?”

Lara remained silent as her expression became gloomy. “Who the hell are you, and how do you know me?”

“I am the Quantum Lord, Dante. As for you, Lara Sanguis, I know you because you’re quite popular in another universe I’ve traveled to,” Dante introduced himself with a dramatic bow.

Lara sized up Dante. “Quantum Lord? What a stupid name. You lower lifeforms of the sub-universes are truly amusing.”

Dante shrugged off her contempt. “Whatever floats your boat. What I care about is what exactly you plan to do by coming down here with so many clones.”

Lara sneered. “My goals are beyond the comprehension of a piece of trash like you.”

Dante shook his head and turned to the still furious Levi, who had seen his outcome in the illusory world and was greatly miffed.

“What is her true purpose?”

Levi rubbed his neck gently as if he could feel the phantom pain of being grabbed and spoke coldly. “She plans to use the origins of all the universes to refine the seal placed on her main body and free herself.”

Lara’s pupils constricted. “How could you possibly know that? How could you know this and not alert my main consciousness?”

Levi sneered at Lara in turn. “Kneel down and beg, then I might decide to tell you.”

This demand made Lara’s face change as she stared at the Truth Beast with disgust and hatred, as if the very suggestion he made was the epitome of rudeness and insubordination. Meanwhile, Levi simply glared right back without a hint of fear.

“Well, Lara Sanguis, rather than ask such foolish questions, what you should be asking is what I intend to do with you.” Dante brought the focus back to the discussion as he crossed his legs. .𝒎

“And what do the actions of a random ant that thinks it has an advantage have to do with me?” She spoke arrogantly, not conceding defeat verbally.

Dante smiled at her pointedly. ‘There are many things I can do to you, or specifically to this incarnation of yours that would cause your main consciousness to be traumatized for millennia if your memories ever trace back to her.”

Lara’s breath caught and her lips became sealed, determined not to reply, but Dante could tell from her actions that this was something she feared more than death itself. She could be killed, but never humiliated!

Even this current experience was pushing the boundaries of her tolerance, but she was forcefully coping with it by telling herself that it was just another illusion of some sort. There was simply no way some lower-level lifeform trash could actually apprehend her.

“But I don’t want to do them, nor do I care to. Rather, I will keep you prisoner in this space while I travel to other universes and hunt down your clones, eventually foiling your jailbreak plan.” Dante announced to Lara directly.

Lara shook and suddenly began struggling against her bindings for the first time as her eyes became red. “You piece of trash lesser being, how dare you! If you dare to interrupt my great plans, I will destroy you so thoroughly that the damage will be felt by everyone in your lineage from 1000 generations up and downwards!”

Dante’s casual expression became cold as he disappeared from his seat and appeared before Lara. Before she could process anything, a heavy kick laden with blood qi and life essence struck her face, specifically her right cheek.

She would have been sent flying within the quantum space if Dante did not bind her tightly, but it didn’t stop her from facing the fate of spinning around on the spot like a screw being dug in.

She didn’t die from it, but the pain and the concussion she suffered after were very real, causing Lara’s expression to change to one of madness as she attacked Dante once more, this time with her authority of space.

In her mind, her authority should overpower what little tricks he had and allow her to break free from this place, but when she tried to access it, she felt like she was being blocked by an unstoppable wall.

“Huh?”

That was why Lara muttered in confusion, because she couldn’t fathom there being an existence within this lower-level space that could actually be on par with her, or in this case, her main body.

The quantum space was created and managed by the Cosmic Tree, so its rules were enforced by it too. Her meager authority control in her clone was not even enough to fill the gaps of the Cosmic Tree’s teeth, so forget even activating it; she could barely even sense her authorities here.

Dante casually walked over and gave her another kick, this one slightly lighter in force in order to wake her the hell up. Even as Lara’s head tilted to the side and she coughed blood, despite her awesome power, she still seemed dazed as if someone had told her the most shocking thing in the universe.

She raised her head to glance at Dante as if she was looking at him for the first time, the shock and dismay evident on her pale white face.

“How can this be… you don’t even have a mere Origin being supporting you, but an actual Eternal?”

Dante frowned and turned to Levi. “What are Origin beings and what are Eternals?”

Levi calculated silently and then sighed. “I cannot say even though I know because the Cosmic Tree feels it’s not yet time for you to know. Only when you take Quantum Entanglement to the S rank would you be qualified to know such a thing.”

Oh?

Then this meant that this concerned a significant secret about the universe!

Dante was not bothered about reaching the S rank because he could easily get there in time; it was not like it was difficult, especially with his current resources. To be honest, it was mostly just time-consuming.

He glanced at the shell-shocked Lara who was still mumbling to herself stupidly. It seemed as if nothing apart from the revelation that he was supported by an ‘Eternal’ which should be the Cosmic Tree, could truly get to her.

Her reaction made Dante all the more eager to uncover this secret and understand why it had such a powerful being in a stupor. So he recollected Levi and left the quantum space, leaving Lara bound and tied in one of its distant corners.

As for him, he returned to the Stellar Vanguard 11 and resumed his Quantum Clonefor it to handle business as usual in the Centralis Universe. As for him, he naturally teleported back into the Eternal Universe because it was time to migrate himself and his family to the First Gate.

From the onset, Dante didn’t only plan to go himself. He would take Beatrice and Antonia there too, for despite the danger, he had the strong confidence to protect them and also because they absolutely needed to go.

Both mother and daughter needed to align their abilities and unlock their true potential, and Dante was here to help them with that in every way. The first step was to grant them the necessary powers and allow them to have an environment where they could both grow their abilities without delay.

Now that Dante knew Lara’s insidious purpose for sending clones down, he was filled with dismay and a hint of worry. He might have stopped her clone here, but who knew how much progress she made in other universes that he had yet to see. .

The idea that he could suddenly be ‘refined’ was troubling but he had protected his home universe, but it meant little. His universe of origin was now tied to the Eternal Universe as well as the Centralis Universe, so he had to defeat the Lara here too and foil her plan.

Otherwise if the Eternal Universe was refined away, putting aside whether the Cosmic Tree could save him, it would mean bye-bye to Beatrice, Portia, Augeus, his parents, his friends and especially the newly born Antonia.

That was obviously unacceptable.
