Scarlet

Time passes slowly as I devour the void creatures flooding from the rift, and throughout that time, I gradually grow stronger and stronger. All the way till I’m finally starting to reach the point where I feel I may have a chance against the Voided Overlord.

But the Voided Overlord isn’t just sitting still either. It’s working its way through the rift while making it grow with every day that passes.

And by the time one month has passed, things change.

The Voided Overlord’s entire hand finally makes it through the rift into the universe, and along with that, the Corrupted Fractures stop closing.

As soon as this happens, panic begins to spread across every world I can see across the universe. Because, until now, I’ve been dealing with the void creatures and the Corrupted Fracture cores along with whatever people they have protecting their worlds. But now the Corrupted Fractures never close, even after the cores are shattered.

Now the Fractures seem permanent. Permanent gates leading to the void with a constant rush of void creatures coming through.

I grit my teeth as I control thousands of clones at once, slaughtering the void creatures nonstop and using them all to grow stronger. All while denizens of the planets themselves are helping me out.

Whether they’re humans from Earth, demons from Tartarus, or elves from some random planet. Everyone that isn’t a Class 0 with no power to their name aides in the war.

Because at this point it is a full war.

An invasion.

A Void Invasion.

Not just the Fractures that we were having before.

It’s a lot more like the Gates to Tartarus that led to the all out war between humans and demons rather than the more apocalyptic Fractures that would appear and occasionally bring demons.

In fact, it’s exactly like that comparison.

And Class VI or no Class VI, it’s getting tough to handle it all.

I have one clone handling every single planet, with two clones each handling Earth and Tartarus. Because priority. Meanwhile the Guardians and demons are all working around the clock to deal with the Void Invasion.

Although Tartarus is probably the least affected by this whole thing. What with their civilization being rather barbaric in some manners already.

Well, that and the Demon King’s presence. Yeah, that’s probably the biggest reason.

Not to mention the Demon Lords.

Okay, yeah, they’re just a lot stronger than the other worlds in general. So Tartarus isn’t in too much trouble.

Not compared to the other worlds.

Earth too. It may not be as strong as Tartarus, but Earth is still leagues above the other worlds.

All because of the System.

A System that was made largely to make me as strong as I am now. So all because of a coincidence.

Since I happened to be on Earth. Or Tartarus.

Both technically.

I frown when I feel a liquid leaking out of my eye. And when I reach up to touch it while still devouring void creatures near the Voided Overlord’s hand, I find my hand coming away with Red Plague on it.

Well that’s not good.

I feel more liquid leaking from my other eye. Then my mouth. Then nose and ears.

This is very much not good.

Guess even ‘goddesses’, as the people so like to call me these days, can overwork themselves as well.

“Scarlet, you really need to take a break,” I hear Tar’s voice echoing in my head, making me purse my lips for a few seconds.

No can do. A break for me is millions of lives lost for others.

“At the very least you can take a break from devouring the void creatures where you are and return to Earth,” Tar points out. “There’s no reason you have to always be fighting near the breach. I bet the Voided Overlord’s constant presence is what’s causing your health to deteriorate.”

You probably have a point there.

I frown in thought for several seconds as blood continues leaking from me before I eventually sigh, ignoring the blood that leaks out in the process. Then I mutter, “Fine.”

“Good,” Tar says, sounding satisfied with himself. “Let your main body take a break while your clones handle the other worlds. Maybe reduce the number of clones while you’re at it.”

Not happening.

“What?! Why not?” Tar exclaims, making my ears ache with his volume. “Is it because of the people that’ll be lost? You realize if you collapse then even more people will die, right?!”

No, it’s not that. Although that doesn’t hurt my reasoning either.

Tar seems to pause for a second before he asks, confusion clear in his voice, “Then why?”

I glance upwards at where I believe Tar is watching me from as I smile despite the pain and answer, “Why, because I’d lose out on devouring the void creatures.”

He doesn’t say anything for several seconds. Then I hear a sigh along with his muttered voice, “You just want to keep growing stronger…”

Yep.

The tanuki snorts and says, “Not even hiding it. How shameless.”

Yep.

He snorts again before going silent. Likely having given up by now.

I raise a brow before teleporting away from the Voided Overlord and returning to Earth. Then I immediately turn into blood and fly straight towards my home, where I find a bed and lie down in it.

The little guy is right though. I haven’t rested for ages.

Pretty sure I’ve even heard some people gossiping about how I’m always at work the few times I returned to Earth.

I still hear it right now.

Which is why I manually decrease the sensitivity of my hearing.

Honestly glad I’m able to do that. Otherwise my life would be a living hell, always being able to hear absolutely everything everywhere within multiple planets of me.

Not even sure how that’s possible, considering the lack of sound waves in space. But I guess magic makes anything possible.

I learned later on that shockwaves shouldn’t even technically be possible in space despite them happening after all. So hearing sounds from other planets isn’t that far-fetched.

Well, my hearing aside, I reach for a book I left on my nightstand.

Haven’t been able to read for a while.

I best make use of this time to do that before I return.
