Chapter 1.4 Fallen Emperor
From the meteor impact, the ground split into two, forming a crater, and everything in a radius of 10 km became dust and after the dust settled.
There were no moments aside from a meteor at least the size of a mortal bus at the center of destruction.
And everything became silent. Many people came here to investigate this meteor, but they did not find anything besides the giant hard rock.
People got disappointed, they came here to find something valuable, but there was only a giant stone that was refusing to break .
Someone murmured to himself, why was my luck so bad that I only found this rock and hit it with his leg?
On this planet, there were many meteorites that shot down to the planet.
Some meteors carry valuable things that can only be found on them. So this became a good source of income, but not all contain valuables, only a few do.
Another person came,wearing a long black coat and tried to comfort him, "It was not your fault, brother, this stone was unlucky, not you."
"Let's get ready, we are moving to the next site," one man said, commanding everyone. "We had already wasted our time here, we had to visit many other meteor sites."
"We were already in huge debt, so we had not to waste time here."
After saying that, all the people nodded and started packing everything and left the site.
They had left something that could have the power to change their life, but fate had not chosen them, it had chosen someone else.
And after that, no one came for this meteor.
And then six months passed.
When the meteor cracked.
A bright light shone that could even surpass the sun.
The seal had been broken.
The emperor had awakened.
Spread all over the Universe ,announcing his return and every god in the Universe watching this while gritting their teeth and cursing themselves why they did not kill him when he was a small one year child.
Their hate from him had reached a new level but they lost any sympathy towards him.
Now from the meteor, a dying figure emerged ,half of his body was burned beyond recognition, while the rest of his body had countless wounds, but he was alive.
By all logic, he should have died, but his chest was moving, and the sound of his heartbeat could be heard.
When he fell on the ground, a massive shockwave that could be felt across the Duskwild planet ,every being that was present on the planet, including birds that flew in the sky, monsters in the forests, creatures in the ocean, and even the sleeping dead beneath the soil.
He lay unconscious on the ground for at least six months.
Once a group of people came there to take him away from this place but they all failed and in the end they left him.
When an old man, seventy years of age, found him while he was returning to his home after doing his business near the village.
He was not some ordinary old man ,he had once been the most powerful figure in the Universe, a protector of billions. Now retired, he lived with his granddaughter due to guilt of not saving his son. He had the option to save his son, but due to responsibility, he could not save his son.
But now he has the option to save someone.
He took the person and took him to his home, so he could recover.
It was a story not about dominance
It was about what the Emperor chooses this time:
Dominance or peace.
And so began the story not of his fall, but of his return.
