Novel Full 69 Make Your Life Hell...
“Chronos…” She muttered under her breath, a shudder going down her spine when she finally understood the situation that she was in.
The white-haired man allowed the white hood to fall off his head, revealing his handsome face and his piercing golden eyes.
His hair draped down his shoulders, glistening like white silky threads that had been attacked by the most beautiful doll. Everything about him didn’t seem real, from his mesmerizing eyes to the aura he let out unconsciously, it was as if he was a fragment of a dream that had formed in the real world for the sole purpose of making everything around it seem ugly in comparison.
The man, whom Gaia referred to as Chronos, narrowed his eyes at the woman before closing them and letting out a soft chuckle. Simultaneously, he let go of Gaia’s wrist and made her let out a sigh of relief.
However, the moment the sigh left her mouth she tried to inhale once again just to find that she couldn’t. A sudden sharp and excruciating pain spread out from her stomach before she suddenly found herself shooting through the air at unimaginable speeds.
In the distance, she could see Chronos slowly placing his left foot on the while looking at her with a cold and overpowering expression. Everything from the way he stood to the way he moved radiated with confidence and thousands of years of experience.
“It’s Lord Chronos to you…” While his voice might have been low, the power behind them alone caused the white void to shake. The sound of cracking and rumbling resounded throughout the entire Gaia’s realm, making her widen her eyes in disbelief before finally extending her legs to the ground and landing gracefully despite her earlier condition.-.
However, while her landing might have been classified as graceful, the illusion broke the moment a trickle of blood ran down her mouth before she was forced to puke out a mouthful of blood.
“L-Lord Chronos…” She spoke out with a stutter, pain evident in her voice.
“What brings you here?” She asked and tried to look up.
In the distance, she saw the man take a step forward just for the space in front of him to seemingly warp before he disappeared and reappeared in the blink of an eye. It was a speed not even Gaia could track, as all she saw was him teleporting in front of her.
“I saw that you were about to leave the realm and kill the boy with your own hands…” Chronos paused as if waiting for Gaia to say something in return for his words.
Immediately breaking under the pressure of his gaze, Gaia nodded like an obedient dog, not daring to stand up from the kneeling position that she had been forced into after puking the mouthful of blood out.
“What happened to not breaking that rule?” Chronos spoke, purposely using vague words as if he knew that someone was listening.
Hearing his words, Gaia grew enraged, making her look up with fiery eyes and finally stand up in front of him with enough speed that he had to dodge her head as it elevated to his position.
“That is a human! A human! You know exactly why I will never allow any one of them to live in my world. This Isn’t a place for those disgusting things to scour and conquer, this is a place for the other races to live in harmony.” She roared but it didn’t seem to affect Chronos since his expression seemed as indifferent as always.
“Don’t kill the human.” He ordered flatly.
“Why? So he can do what the rest of the humans are doing all over the universe? Kill, rape, conquer and survive? They are nothing but barbarians who think they own everything in the universe, and now I have one of my planet! How am I supposed to keep the peace and harmony between the races if there is a human around?!” She roared once again, enraged to almost her boiling point. It seemed like one word could set her off on a rampage.
“I wasn’t asking…” Chronos replied, however unlike all the other times, his eyes had narrowed down to the point where his golden eyes were exuding an enormous pressure down of Gaia. She couldn’t move a single muscle from the neck down, yet that did not stop her.
“I don’t care. I’ve taken over this world and built it up from scratch after its last mass extinction. I will not watch it fall again just because I spared one human.” Her voice sounded cold and serious
“I am not asking you to spare him.” Chronos chuckled under his breath and continued- “I am asking you to not kill him directly. Not with your own hands. If you want to kill him that badly, you can try manipulating some of the beast’s emotions, making dungeons harder, and even making his enemies go berserk. But do not kill him directly or else the human will become the least of your worries.” Chronos spoke before smiling coldly and taking a step back.
Immediately after doing so, he disappeared, leaving Gaia in the room alone to lament her injuries.
“That bastard…” She gritted her teeth and went silent for several seconds before finally getting up and reaching her throne.
Since she had been sitting on her throne when she received Chrono’s kick, she found herself grimacing at the fact that there was only half a throne left now, one that was uncomfortable to sit on.
“I’ll make the boy’s life hell…”

An enormous feeling of dread seemed to smash into me like a bullet train. My thoughts had sped up significantly while ways to escape the current situation ran through my mind at an unimaginable speed.
After glancing forward, I realized that the best thing to do was a retreat, so I did exactly that, completely missing my chance of killing the goblin chief once and for all.
My regret turned into relief in the blink of an eye, however, this time letting out a sigh and took another jump back to get as far away as possible.
In front of the goblin chief stood a hound, one that was twice as large as the last goblin hound that I saw while somehow looking more ferocious. It had armor scatted on different limbs and body parts, while at the same time there were several letters and runes engraved and painted onto its fur.
[Alpha Hound]
[Information: The strongest one of the pack and the leader of the pack. Usually, Alpha hounds are around 2-3 times larger than the second strongest hound and have the strength to rival many of the peak intermediate mortal beasts. If tamed, it gains the ability to draw strength from its master to become abnormally strong for its minor realm.]
‘Damnit…’ I cursed to myself, but as if my curses were somehow levers that would force something cursed upon me, another notification caught my eyes.
[The Goblin Chief has entered the berserk state]
[The Alpha Hound has entered the berserk state]
