1638 A Warm Welcome! V

Meanwhile, in the vastness of space, Felix and Hephaestus engaged in a battle of cosmic proportions!

They were like gods clashing among the stars, their every move resonating through the universe.

Felix was forced into taking action in his current massive size after Hephaestus showed him that he possessed the Celestial Cage.

He knew that the moment he reduced his size back to normal, Hephaestus would stick to him akin to glue until both of his cores would get ripped out of his body and enter the Celestial Cage!

'The three rulers really aren't messing around.' Lilith chuckled, 'They must have provided all participants in the hunt with a Celestial Cage.'

Since Celestial Cage needed the purest forms of celestial energy with a massive quantity to lure in the cores, the three rulers had to help out Hephaestus and the others.

Naturally, the cages needed to be returned to them at the end of the hunt as they couldn't afford to lose that much celestial energy.

The eternal kingdom was already facing an immense shortage of celestial energy to the point, that it could barely cover 40% of the eternal kingdom's territory!

The rest was considered a wasteland and the unigins weren't focusing on expanding their territories outward because of this.

For this exact reason, Felix was now suffering under Hephaestus without the possibility of utilizing either celestial white flames or black flames!

The eternal kingdom's gate was closer to the edges of the eternal kingdom than its heart, which made it near impossible for celestial energy to reach this space.

The worst part?

'Asna's core is aching for celestial energy and it messing with my head! It wants the celestial energy in the cage!' Felix uttered with a distressed look, as he kept evading the relentless assault of Hephaestus.

Each star under his command became a weapon, firing beams of concentrated stellar energy!

The sky around them erupted in a dazzling display of light and power, as star after star unleashed its fury!

Amidst the chaos of battle, Felix's mind raced for a solution and Asna's core throwing a tantrum wasn't making it any easier.

It was like a baby starved for milk and Hephaestus had put a bottle right in front of it. Of course, it would act up...Especially, when Felix didn't have as much of a control of it as Asna!

"What an irritating symbol."
