Dragon Empire Galaxy,
Earth-shaking clashes echoed across the void.
[Krishna]: Range Shiftling, Zeroth Dimension.
[Reso]: Blood Transformation.
Reso's body began transforming into a far more powerful and stable form—
And suddenly, it stopped.
The transformation deactivated.
It felt as though an entirely different space had swallowed him whole.
Thousands of geometrically perfect patterns floated around him alongside blinding lights stretching endlessly into the distance.
His body started weakening.
Weaker.
And weaker.
Coldness crawled through his spine.
Suddenly—
The space itself tore apart.
A massive white beam descended before him.
Eight gigantic gates appeared high above in the void.
One by one, they opened.
Reso stared in confusion.
None of this made sense.
[Reso]: What is happening?! This… this is impossible!
The gates slowly turned black.
The light vanished into darkness.
Then—
Figures began walking out from the gates.
Corpses.
Countless dead people.
Reso started sweating heavily.
[Reso]: This can't be…
Reality tore apart once again.
A hand suddenly grabbed his neck.
Before he could even turn around, he was hurled away violently.
[Krishna]: Seems like you enjoyed every moment of it.
Reso trembled while trying to stand.
[Reso]: What… was that?
[Krishna]: My strongest Range Shiftling. It disables everything considered supernatural.
Transformations, special abilities, visual sorcery, immortality… all of it gets nullified.
Only the five senses remain untouched.
Krishna's eyes remained cold.
[Krishna]: While doing so, it forces the target to witness their greatest fear.
Reso's mind raced.
Everything connected perfectly now.
His transformation was locked.
Without it, defeating Krishna was impossible.
How could such a technique even exist?
Reso quickly swallowed a pill.
Krishna watched him carefully with analytical eyes.
The moment the pill took effect, Reso roared like a beast.
His strength exploded.
His speed rose to another level entirely.
Within a blink, he vanished.
In the very next instant, he appeared before Krishna and launched a devastating punch—
But Krishna disappeared before it could land.
Reso's eyes widened.
[Reso, thinking]: Impossible! He isn't transformed… then how is he reacting to my speed?!
Krishna appeared behind him and smashed him straight into the moon orbiting Planet Moro.
[Krishna]: If you're wondering how I can match your speed, the answer is simple.
Krishna floated calmly in space.
[Krishna]: Range Shiftling, Speed.
He raised his hand slightly.
[Krishna]: Zeroth Dimension only affects my targets. The only drawback is that I cannot use highly complex techniques simultaneously… though I can still maintain four additional techniques alongside it.
At this moment, Krishna was using:
Range Shiftling, Zeroth Dimension
Range Shiftling, Speed
Reso wiped blood from his mouth.
[Reso]: Then I'll just crush you faster.
He charged again without hesitation.
The two clashed.
Space cracked apart around them.
Their movements vanished beyond visibility.
Only distortions remained.
Planet Moro,
A child walked through the streets with his friends.
Suddenly, he looked up.
Thousands of streaks of light tore across the night sky.
Every Dragoling across the planet witnessed the same phenomenon.
The sky itself looked shattered.
This was the aftermath of Krishna and Reso's battle.
Those countless flashes appearing across the globe within fractions of a second—
They were merely the trajectories of their clashes.
Range Shiftling, Speed had elevated Krishna far beyond his normal limits.
A speed once below Mach 100 had now reached an entirely different realm.
[Krishna]: Range Shiftling, Strength.
Krishna's punch landed perfectly.
The impact launched Reso straight into the moon.
Even after Krishna activated multiple absorbing and defensive barriers—
Thirty percent of the moon was obliterated.
Reso's glowing body dimmed instantly.
The side effects of the pills began consuming him.
His body shrank.
His muscles weakened.
His hair turned white.
Even his eyes lost color.
Krishna descended beside the barely conscious Reso.
Then kicked his face hard enough to force him awake again.
[Krishna]: Consider this a message.
His voice remained calm.
[Krishna]: I know Buster Community is watching through your eyes.
Tell them this—
A faint killing intent escaped him.
[Krishna]: If they dare step onto this land, I will erase the entire community alongside the Sorcery World.
Krishna raised his hand.
A sharp beam of radiant light formed in his palm.
[Krishna]: Matrix Burst. Minimum output.
The beam fired.
The moon disappeared completely.
Nothing remained.
Krishna teleported away immediately afterward.
[Krishna, thinking]: That moon was already destabilizing Moro anyway. Consider it a coronation gift for Queen Girishika.
The destruction of the moon created a beautiful spectacle across the skies of Moro.
Girishika watched it silently with widened eyes.
Beside her stood Wedgermio.
Quiet.
Knowing.
Soon, another figure appeared amidst the remains of the destroyed moon.
It was Kae.
Still smiling.
[Kae]: With this, my collection is complete.
He placed Reso's severed head into a sack.
Then vanished once again.

[Living Verse, Omniverse 101 , Megaverse 10, Multiverse 100,
Universe 201]
Multiverse 100 belonged to Buster Community.
One of the Domino Communities.
Universe 201 served as the base universe of their Supreme Authority.
At the outskirts of the universe, a massive meeting was underway.
The meeting temple itself was large enough to be mistaken for a planet.
It orbited a nearby star.
The structure measured eighteen thousand miles in width and seventeen thousand miles in height.
At its gates stood three Lord Busters.
Under each of them served five Emperor Busters.
Deep within the innermost chamber—
The meeting continued.
Ancient black stone formed the outer walls, while the interior gleamed with gold and silver.
Six chairs lined the rectangular table.
Three on each side.
Seated upon them were the six Devil Busters—the highest-ranking militants beneath the throne.
At the head of the table floated a massive flame.
The Supreme Authority of Buster Community.
The Flame Emperor.
Also known as—
Supreme Lord.
The atmosphere was tense.
Reso's death had already reached them.
The death of an Emperor Buster itself wasn't the real issue.
What troubled them was Krishna's warning.
A war against the Sorcery World would not end without consequences.
Especially while legends like Gomo Taka still existed.
Silence consumed the chamber.
Then—
A portal opened.
A figure stepped out carrying a sack.
Every Devil Buster immediately took battle stances.
Except Supreme Lord.
It was Kae.
[Kae]: Peace. I have not come here for battle.
His smile never disappeared.
[Kae]: Caution is wise… but unnecessary.
Zara narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
Dai looked tense.
Jon casually continued eating chips while maintaining his stance.
Shirin observed quietly, conflicted.
Weg—the strongest Devil Buster—watched with detached indifference.
Kae casually jumped onto the table and tossed the sack before Supreme Lord.
A severed head, a hand, and piles of ashes rolled out.
[Flame]: What relics hast thou brought before Us?
[Flame]: Samples… of what?
Kae smiled wider.
[Kae]: Your buried mistakes.
He pointed one by one.
[Kae]: The head of Reso . The hand of Teger. The ashes of Frogem.
The flames around Supreme Lord intensified violently.
[Flame]: WHAT MEANETH THIS, KAEEEE?!
[Kae]: Calm yourself, ancient enemy.
His eyes widened slightly.
The smile remained.
[Kae]: I have come… for a bargain.
