"Who is this?"
This question became the hardest question for Bradley to answer. He took Miredal to meet Alexandra but he didn't think if how to introduce her to Alexandra before taking Miredal to meet her in the Exotic Chamber.
"Hi!
I'm Miredal Thana. A vampire who has no memory of the past. For some unknown reason, I was sealed in a coffin for an unknown number of years in a secluded place in this world. Thanks to Bradley, I'm now awakened from my deep slumber and I am free."
Before Bradley could could do the introduction, the vampire girl did it herself.
Alexandra suddenly became fond of Miredal for a reason that wasn't known to her. When she say her at first, it seemed like they had some kind of acquaintance with each other.
"Come her Miredal." She pulled her from Bradley's side. Miredal looked at Bradley with her innocent confused eyes but she later calmed down after he assured her with a smile and a nod.
"Did that pervert bully you?"
Alexandra who was now holding Miredal's hands asked her after seeing the how Bradley smiled at Miredal.
"No,no,no. He hasn't done anything like that. Bradley is kind and handsome. He offers me a sense of security when he's around me."
Bradley touched his nose when he heard what Miredal just said. He was proud to receive such a compliment from a beauty.
"Gosh! It seems like another innocent maiden has been deceived by his innocent alluring handsome face."
She looked at Miredal with pity in her eyes.
"I don't mind being deceived by him sister." She innocently said.
Alexandra shook her head when she heard what the Vampire girl said.
"It seems that you are beyond redemption. You would be eaten up soon before you even realize it yourself." In a helpless state, Alexandra said.
Bradley and Alexandra told Miredal things outside this world and fun things they would let her experience when they return back to earth.
"Boom!!!"
"HOW!!! DARE!!! THEY!!!"
-----
The sky above Earth burned crimson like blood.
Cities that once glittered with lights, beauty and hope now trembled beneath the shadows of descending warships and shuttles. Massive metallic fortresses hovered like dark gods over continents, their engines roaring like thunder of doom. From them descended warriors clad in armor that shimmered with spiritual energy, these were the promised cultivators from the Immortal Realm.
They were the Faction of Chaos in the ImmortalRealm.
Humanity had changed over the past few months. Body Refinement had awakened across the world, and technology had advanced to unimaginable levels that it would have taken decades for earth to reach that level if it wasn't for The Redeemer. Nations possessed energy cannons capable of leveling mountains, exo-armor that amplified human strength, and satellites that could fire beams from orbit. But none of it was enough.
The Immortal Realm invaders possessed both cultivation and technology far beyond Earth's limits.
Their weapons were powered by spiritual cores, their armor was inscribed with ancient runes, and their warriors had cultivated their martial spirits for centuries.
Battles erupted across the planet earth.
Earth's strongest warriors rose to fight them, but again and again they fell.
At the center of the invasion stood one man called Robert Potter.
Clad in blazing crimson robotic armor, Robert levitated above a ruined battlefield like a tyrant of fire. He was indeed a tyrant of fire because behind him roared the phantom of his Martial Spirit, the Inferno Tyrant Lion. The enormous lion spirit towered in the sky, its mane burning like a raging sun while waves of heat distorted the air around it.
Every step Robert took left large molten cracks on the ground.
"Pathetic fools." He scoffed, looking down at the defeated defenders of Earth beneath him.
Around him lay shattered machines, fallen soldiers, and broken weapons. Earth's resistance forces had thrown everything they had at him but it changed nothing.
With a flick of his wrist, a beam cannon mounted on his gauntlet obliterated the last remaining defense turret.
"Boom!!!"
The ground exploded.
"Earth belongs to Lorda Chaos now. Surrender and life or you can reble and join your pathetic fallen brothers in hell." Robert declared coldly.
Right after that, his gaze soon shifted.
Across the battlefield stood a young woman surrounded by blazing spiritual light.
Elaine Jada Windsor. Yes! She was the one. Even while injured, she stood firmly in front of several terrified civilians and her royal family.
Behind her, two majestic phoenix spirits circled in the air with powerful aura.
One was a blazing phoenix of crimson fire. The other was a phoenix of crystal-blue frost.
The Celestial Ice-Fire Twin Phoenixes.
Robert's eyes gleamed with greed.
"What a rare martial spirit…" He muttered out loud.
"You belong in the Immortal Realm, not this pitiful world."
Before Elaine could react, Robert vanished. In the next instant,
"Boom!!!"
He appeared before her, his overwhelming aura crushing the ground beneath his feet.
Elaine tried to attack, the twin phoenixes screeching as flames and ice spiraled toward him.
But Robert simply waved his hand and the attack shattered like glass.
A pressure descended like a mountain on Elaine and she collapsed to one knee.
Her family screamed behind her.
Robert grabbed her wrist, lifting her effortlessly.
"You will come with me," he said with a cruel smile.
Elaine struggled fiercely, her phoenix spirits roaring in fury.
"Let me go!" Elaine roared with fury.
'Where are you? How can you dissappear from my life at this moment'
That was her thought all this while.
Robert laughed.
"No one here can stop me."
His grip tightened as despair filled Elaine's heart.
But at that moment, far away…
Bradley suddenly froze. A sharp pain pierced his chest. It wasn't physical but
It was emotional rather.
A bond. Through the invisible connection between them, Bradley felt Elaine's fear… her resistance… and her desperation.
His eyes turned cold.
"Elaine."
Beside him stood Alexandra and Miredal, both sensing the terrifying change in his aura.
A dragon's roar echoed faintly through the air. Golden scales of spiritual energy flickered around Bradley's body as an ancient pressure began spreading.
"Someone touched what belongs to me," he said quietly.
The ground beneath them cracked.
Without another word, Bradley raised his hand.
Space twisted. A massive rift tore open in reality itself.
Alexandra smirked while Miredal's crimson eyes glowed with excitement.
"Let's go," Bradley said.
The three stepped into the void.
On the battlefield, Robert had just begun dragging Elaine away when suddenly;
"CRACK!!!"
The sky shattered.
Lightning exploded across the heavens as a colossal spatial rift opened above the battlefield.
A terrifying dragon aura descended like divine judgment.
"Boom!!!"
Three figures appeared in the air.
Bradley stood at the front, his long black coat billowing in the storm of energy surrounding him. His eyes glowed with ancient fury, and behind him a colossal dragon phantom stirred within the clouds.
Alexandra hovered calmly at his side, her power radiating like a celestial queen.
Miredal floated nearby, her crimson gaze locked onto Robert like a predator who had just found prey.
The sheer pressure crushed the battlefield.
Robert's confident smile vanished.
For the first time since the invasion began, fear appeared in his eyes.
Bradley's voice echoed like thunder across the ruined land.
"Release! her!."
The dragon aura exploded.
And the battlefield descended into chaos.
