--- Chapter 76 ---

"Something is calling me."

For the first time in Hayate's life, he felt such an odd sensation all over his body.

It's both instinctual and passively triggered by this sensation

Hayate could feel Evil God's Profound Veins and Kaiju Creation received a signal from something or maybe someone. Simply put, it's like receiving two phone calls simultaneously.

He jumped off the cliff and descended into the Abyss, feeling the dark energy all over the place. It was so overwhelming that even Dullahan's shadow armor fell off like wet paper.

However, Hayate doesn't feel an ounce of discomfort.

"Warm." He commented with a surprised tone while stepping to the bottom of the cliff.

A night vision activated automatically, and the formerly dark cave became bright. His golden eyes slowly widened because there was a substantial number of Devil Beasts in this place.

Well, the number is a fickle matter. The most disturbing part was the Devil Beast's strength.

The weakest one here literally possessed Divine freaking Origin Realm cultivation, which was the same level as Dullahan's strength.

There is also a reason why Hayate used the "Devil Beasts." term to describe these creatures.

First, their energy signature resembled Dullahan's darkness, and second, their primordial energy.

If Hayate had to guess, these Devil Beasts were probably from ancient times, the point when God's Race and Devil's Race still coexist and reign over the Primal Chaos.

'Gernis would start to curse in this situation.' Hayate thought while hiding himself between rocks.

Meanwhile, Jasmine was likewise stunned by Devil Beast's presence. These creatures shouldn't exist.

Heck, she only knows a myth about them.

Jasmine wanted to tell Hayate how dangerous the situation was, but her divine sense suddenly was screaming in dread for some reason.

A quiet and indifferent voice entered her head.

"Let's not ruin my reunion with him, shall we?"

It's caused Jasmine to sweat bullets. Her face began to lose its color while feeling hopelessness washing over her spiritual body.

Hayate frowned because an external mental interference broke through his inner world, causing him to look around with a wary gaze.

Rawr!

A lowkey growl approached Hayate.

It was a pure white beast with a bulky physique of over 10 feet and white furs all over the upper body, leaving the lower part bathed in dark flame.

"I don't want to use this, but there is no other way," Hayate mumbled and grabbed a small vial with vicious green liquid inside it.

Since Hayate still couldn't use Kaiju Cores, except the Kaiju's some abilities he absorbed from past World's Kaiju, Chaotic Devouring Ants, Dullahan, and Werewolf King.

He has to use an alternative way to defeat this Devil Beast.

A needle appeared between Hayate's fingers, coated with a drop of the vicious green liquid.

He gathered as much force as possible and threw the slender hidden weapon at the Devil beast.

It flew under the dark curtain and stub the Devil Beast on the chest. Corrosion happened in the blink of an eye, devouring the Dark Creature into a puddle of black water.

Hayate slowly walked to the puddle and received the raw Kaiju Core. His hand released a white light, shielding himself from the Absolute God Slaying Poison's aftereffect.

ROAR!

Two more Devil Beasts are approaching from afar.

"Well, I have enough poison to spare." Hayate released a sigh of relief. "Let's start the farm."

He used Fuma's Clan stealth technique and hid from the Devil Beasts, killing them one by one. He walked deeper into the Abyss and noticed this place was just an entrance.

Hayate stepped onto the Abyss's entrance, something surprising entering his sight, a flat land extended for tens of thousands of kilometers in every direction.

"There are more here..." He solemnly looked at the land filled with dangerous Devil Beasts. These beasts are far more terrifying than the ones at the entrance.

"Just what's this place?"

"Why does Evil God have a connection with the Devil Race?"

"I thought he was part of God's Race?"

Hayate received a portion of Dragon God's memory and realized some part of the Primal Chaos's history isn't right. It seems that something is missing.

Like a puzzle with missing pieces, Hayate frowned deeply because Evil God oddly was surrounded by mystery.

...

"Come here..."

"Master..."

Hayate blinked in surprise and stared at the vast land. His ears caught such familiar yet soft voices he hadn't heard for four years.

It's not an illusion.

He moved his gaze too far ahead, noticing a dim purple light on the corner of this place.

"That area." Hayate's body gradually became one with shadows.

His presence disappeared abruptly, leaving only thin air on his former location.

Hayate walked past some Devil Beasts, approaching the dim purple light cautiously.

A land filled with flowers greeted his golden eyes. They were not just ordinary flowers.

"Netherworld Udumbara Flower." He whispered naturally, one of the most significant ingredients for Jasmine's recovery.

There are over ten thousand Netherworld Udumbara Flowers in this place, radiating dim purple light.

Hayate noticed a little silhouette floating in the center of the Netherworld Udumbara Flowers' field.

It was a young girl, no more than ten years old. Maybe, even younger than that with such child-like appearances.

This girl is shorter than Su Ling'er, adorning a broken white dress with dark accents. Her beautiful silver hair flourished to her waist.

She has a gentle chubby face, which surprisingly has a smile full of nostalgia.

As the little girl opened her eyes, Hayate saw a pair of strange heterochromia eyes.

The top half of her right eye was pale yellow, while the bottom half gradually turned a faint green. As for her left eye, the top half was a pale blue while the bottom half gradually became deep purple.

A pair of eyes, giving off the glows of four different colors.

Not only that, but her eyes also have a shade of golden like Hayate's eyes.

Hayate finally recognized this unfamiliar yet familiar girl. It's one of his special Kaiju, living deep in his inner world.

"Beast's Princess." He opened his mouth.

The girl blinked and began to release a mute chuckle no one could hear.

She approached Hayate and replied, "Master... I finally met you again."

"No, maybe I should call you father?" A joy is existent within her unique eyes.

Hayate's hand reached over her head and felt the connection between them. A string of fate, growing more powerful than before.

"Ah, this presence." She stretched her little arms and hugged Hayate. "It's real."

"Luna," Hayate called the little girl by her name. "What happened to you?"

Luna slowly lifted her head and answered, "It's a mundane story."

...

Luna's Pov.

"Master..."

"Four years ago."

I was floating in unknown space, hovering through stars and other Kaiju Cores.

After the explosion, we arrived at the Primal Chaos and spread across the entire universe. I landed on the Blue Polar Star, precisely the Azure Cloud Continent.

Falling into the deep cliff known as Cloud's End Cliff, my Kaiju Core arrived on the Abyss.

"In this place, I found an incomplete soul with no physical body."

"She's lonely, alone on the sea of these flowers."

As I approached the incomplete soul when falling to this place, my Kaiju Core merged into it, and we became one entity.

I looked at my beloved Master and said, "Her name is Ni Jie."

"The daughter of Evil God and Heaven Smithing Devil Emperor."

"Wait, what?" Hayate questioned my statement.

I released a giggle and answered, "Yes, they are husband and wife."

"Even though their relationship somehow was hidden for an eon."

"Ni Jie is half god and half devil."

"However, after we merged, it became 1/3 God, 1/3 Devil, and 1/3 Kaiju."

"After one year, we agreed to name ourselves with my former name, Luna."

"I don't know much about anything else because Ni Jie's memory is incomplete."

We knew Evil God's inheritor would come and find us, but when you arrived on this continent, our souls were shocked because not only you're the destined person, but you also my creator.

Hayate put on a complicated look on his face. His golden eyes are gazing down with confusion.

'How cute.' I thought while embracing his body more.

Then, I remembered something Evil God left for my Master.

As Hayate processed the information in his mind, I brought out a dark crystal from my clothes.

He looked at me and asked, "That is?"

I nodded and replied, "Evil God's Darkness Seed."

"Master absorbs this."

"Absorb this and fulfill your task."

...

Original Pov.

Hayate grasped the Evil God's Dark Seed and felt such a potent dark law inside it. It's not evil by any means but absolute darkness.

Luna stared at Hayate with huge expectations in her eyes.

He can feel her hope for creating a spiritual connection with him again.

He sighed and swallowed the seed, which triggered a change within his body.

"ARRGGGHHHH!!!"

Luna's eyes widened because she didn't expect such an extreme reaction from her beloved Master. It caused her heart to sink in fear.

She immediately pushed her arm aside and summoned a small sword with clock gear attached to the hilt.

"M-Master! Wait for me." Her tone became panicked.

Luna grazed her palm and said, "Zafkiel: Hei!"
