Hero of Darkness

Chapter 1031  The Formal Welcome

In the middle of the chaos and surprises, the Vampire King, Argos Belmont suddenly told everyone that the Hero of Time is from the future.

"He knows what's going to happen in the future.

So basically, he is even a bigger threat to all of us, our Heroes and the Demon God than the Hero of Darkness that you all have been searching for." declared the 9th-stage saint in a serious tone.

Everyone's gazes landed at Anakin who was simply shocked that his secret was out.

But what others didn't know was that he was still under Martial Emperor Kahn's spell that he engraved on his head using the Dragon Runic Magic that Saalazaar, the Elder Dragon of Cosmos brought from the future.

Anakin was not to reveal meeting the Future Kahn and the fact that he already fought with him.

He even told the Emperor from the Empire of Time that he already absorbed his Apple of Eden and had given the one for the Empire to the Emperor.

So nobody suspected anything.

But now that Argos Belmont, the Revenant Sovereign had revealed his truth, all the eyes were focused on him.

Schoowmm!

Clank!

Right then, the Tower of Nature lit up and 3 figures arrived.

All of them were in a haggard situation and had torn-off clothes.

"This bastard! I'll kill you right here!" shouted Maximus. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"He has to pay!" exclaimed Borat in rage.

And finally, it was Conan who spoke…

"This bastard… he broke the agreement between the empires and attacked us inside Babylon." he declared furiously.

"Heavenly King of Fire… I'm sorry." said Maximus with a pitiful and tired voice.

"For what?... And why are there only 3 of you?" asked Romulus in shock.

"The Hero of Time ambushed us just recently. And to make sure that we escaped with our lives…" spoke the Hero of Nature apologetically.

"Your Shadow Disciple, Atreus… he sacrificed his life and was killed by the Hero of Time!" declared Maximus as he clenched his grip on his greatsword.

"What?! Atreus is dead?!" asked Romulus with a completely bewildered countenance.

He could not believe that Kahn was actually killed by the Hero of Time.

But right then… a telepathic message sounded in his mind. The one to speak was none other than…

Vildred, the Lightening Dragon Emperor.

[Don't worry, Fenrirborne. If our disciple, Kahn was already dead… then I too would have died due to the Contract of Familiarity.

That means he's still alive.] said the Sage of Preservation from the True Dimension.

Romulus retained his shocked and devastated countenance.

"This bastard! How dare he ambush our Hero?!" shouted Empress Kaali, thoroughly enraged.

"He also killed Atreus…" she spoke with a sense of loss.

[Dammit! The future pawn that I was going to cultivate for my benefit was killed so suddenly inside Babylon…] thought the Kukulkan Empress with eyes full of fury.

"Explain this, Emperor of Amser Empire!" she shouted, pulling out her spear.

"This… this is a lie!" refuted the Emperor whose face was hidden under a veiled golden spherical hat.

However, a thunderous voice echoed from Maximus.

"A lie? He himself said that his original plan was to kill the Hero of Darkness. But Hero of Darkness killed his entire party and he had to run away. And that's why he ambushed us for my Divine Key!" the Hero of Nature also added to the claim this time.

This claim was half truth and half lie. But for what reason was Maximus Gladius, the current Hero of Nature attesting it in front of all these representatives of different empires, no one knew.

"What?! So the Hero of Darkness is indeed present at the Conclave of Heroes?!" asked Kaali, completely befuddled.

Gasp!

Shock!

This emotion and surprise were shared by everyone because no one suspected or had found out that the Hero of Darkness had already infiltrated Hesperides and even entered Babylon.

So with that established as the truth… everyone could ask only one question to themselves…

'HOW?'

As everyone was engrossed and trying to grasp the situation… a majestic and divine voice echoed…

"Hmmm… the aura around him is normal and his body doesn't show any signs of time disruption.

Let me look carefully." spoke the Celestial Deity, the guardian of Hesperides.

The massive being whose real size could not even be fathomed despite everyone looking at the sky filled with multiple worlds and auras of ethereal energy, stared at Anakin.

"His soul… it is indeed different than all the other Heroes.

The aura of time disruption… the one you lot call the Time Regression, does indeed exist in his soul.

Looks like the God of Time pulled an unexpected move." said the Celestial Guardian.

Stupefied!

The Emperor backing the Hero of Time was simply stupefied. Because even a literal Deity had confirmed that the Hero of Time had come from the future.

What did it entail for him as the Emperor and his Amser Empire that served the God of Time?...

It meant that they were now going to be targeted by basically every empire and even the Demon Empire in the future once the word got out.

Because a Hero coming from the future and the information he held regarding the future was simply invaluable.

Something that all the empires who were friendly only on the surface would eagerly covet and would attack their empire for because of the upcoming war.

Argos Belmont revealing that the Hero of Time was a time regressor, had done one thing certainly…

He royally screwed them over! Everyone's attention was now on Hero of Time. But the Hero was simply standing without reacting or responding to anything as if he was unstable in his mind. Because at this moment, he couldn't even tell that everything that happened in front of him was reality, a dream, or just an alternative timeline because of what Martial Emperor did to him. His brain was basically fried up to the point that he himself was doubting if he was the Hero of Time or someone else. BOOM!

And exactly when everyone was least expecting…

The Tower of Darkness opened and a long shadow was cast at the front.

Step!

Step!

A figure of regal bearing emerged from the depths of the battlefield, commanding attention with every step. Clad in a dark-grey longcoat, intricately adorned with silver patterns that seemed to dance in the flickering light, he exuded an aura of authority and power.

At his side, a black longsword, its hilt adorned with fearsome dragon heads, gleamed with an otherworldly sheen. In his other hand, he held a golden spear, its surface etched with ancient Dwarven and Elven Runes, pulsating with latent energy.

With each stride, he carried himself with a confidence that bespoke of his formidable prowess.

His attire, crafted from materials of mythical rank dragon, spoke volumes of his strength. Gauntlets and boots, forged from the bones of legendary beasts, adorned his form, enhancing his already imposing presence.

This human with a ripped and muscular body, shoulder-length black hair and black eyes gazed at the entire entourage made up of Emperors and Empresses, Heroes and Heroines, their surviving party members, and the powerful saints of the group created to hunt him.

Without showing any hint of fear, anxiety, or alertness towards the danger these powerful figures posed towards him…

"This is quite the crowd for my welcome party."

The man spoke with a confident and authoritative tone as he made a proclaimation…

"I am Kahn Salvatore… your friendly neighborhood Hero of Darkness."
