Underground Laboratory

At the edges of the Milky Way Galaxy, a lone planet with two moons could be seen orbiting a dying sun that was about 145 million kilometers away from it.

The planet had a dry look that was devoid of greenery, its clouds had a reddish hue, and its surface was devoid of even a drop of water. Hell, even oxygen was almost devoid from its surface.

On this inhabitable planet, a lone house stood erect. Defying the strong gales that threatened to pull it down and the hot temperature that could melt even steel to a puddle.

In that house, the figure of an otherworldly entity could be seen floating in the air as he read a book in his hands.

He didn't have a solid form as he looked more like an apparition but his handsomeness was as clear as the day. His body was made from copper, purple, blue, and red colored wisps.

He had yellow eyes that seemed to reflect infinite wisdom and an angular jaw that made him look even more stunning. His beauty could put even that of Elves to shame compared to the measly Human he had been tasked to watch.

Although it couldn't be shown on his featureless face, the figure had a look of fascination and interest while reading the contents of the book in his hands.

But soon, his interest was broken after sensing the current situation of the person or rather the Human who had been placed in his care.

"Such a disappointment." The Honored One's wisp of consciousnesses sighed after seeing Alistar's story state from a white screen in front of him.

He had an aura of disappointment radiating off of him as he said. "I wonder what my main consciousness would do if I let him die."

Deciding not to risk it, the wisp immediately sent his finds towards his main consciousnesses, and the response he received made there a slight change in his expression.

"I can't believe I have to intervene in mortal affairs just because of that child." Pulling his tie downward, The Honored One's wisp of consciousnesses made the book he was reading hover beside him before rolling up his sleeves.

Unfazed by the sight of Alistar getting smashed around like a sandbag, The Honored One's wisp of consciousnesses had a calm air about him.

Placing the knuckles of his right hand on his cheek, The Honored One's wisp of consciousnesses folded his legs into a lotus pose before resting his right hand on his right leg.

"Halt." He said calmly, narrowing his glowing yellow eyes at the figure of the Green-scaled Vine Komodo.

Forcefully seizing control of the Green-scaled Vine Komodo's body, The Honored One's consciousnesses wisp made it drop Alistar's body gently in the place Alistar wanted to go.

Done with what he wanted to do in less than a second, The Honored One had a smile on his face and said. "I guess my time is up."

The Honored One wasn't the one who created the Universe but the one who was tasked with managing it so in case he stepped out of bounds, the Universe had every right to erase him and he'd be replaced by another entity.

Due to this knowledge, The Honored One had tasked his wisp with meddling in Alistar's matters so that he could retain his position and also remain alive.

"Hopefully it would be a worthy sacrifice." He said one last time as he gazed at Alistar's peaceful expression before disintegrating.

He left nothing behind. His clothes, the book he was reading, his body, and even the house he was in wasn't spared as it had also disintegrated. Leaving nothing behind on that barren planet.

Meanwhile, Alistar's figure could be seen floating peacefully in a tub that was filled with a mixture of two dense liquids.

One was greenish while the other was blue. But the strange thing about them was that instead of mixing, they occupied separate halves of the tub.

The Honored One's wisp of consciousnesses had placed Alistar in this solution since he knew it had healing properties although they were weakened, it would be able to get him in tip-top shape in sixteen hours max.

As for the side effects of it being left open for a long time, it couldn't negatively harm Alistar even though the exact effects were unknown to The Honored One's consciousnesses wisp.

****

Straightaway creating another wisp with the task of watching Alistar after seeing his previous wisp had fulfilled its purpose, The Honored One stared at Alistar for a while before saying. "I can't let you die now that you just began using my Technique."

Chuckling lightly, The Honored One stared in front of him with blank eyes before accepting the summon from The Mother of The Multiverse.

He was aware that he'd get punished by bending the Multiverse's rules, but did he give a shit? No, he knew it won't be anything severe and even if that loophole would get patched it didn't bother him since he had no plans on using it again.

"Don't disappoint me." The Honored One said while staring daggers at Alistar. His tone was cold and his eyes seemed to resemble slits.

Disappearing a few seconds later, the pitch-black vacuum that he had been floating in was soon returned to its calm state.

****

In the tub, Alistar could be seen shivering consistently with pale white skin —seeming like he was having the worst nightmare in his life.

And it wasn't so farfetched as whenever he tried to get comfortable with the eutrophic feeling that covered every inch of his battered body he'd see two narrowed yellow eyes staring into the depths of his soul.

Unable to enjoy the blissful sensation without getting interrupted, Alistar soon regained consciousness after about twelve hours had passed by.

Half of the solution had already been absorbed by him while the rest had been turned into pitch black goo. Although it didn't stink, just looking at it would make anyone's gag reflexes kick in.

Staring at the black goo that covered his bottom half, Alistar closed his eyes before taking in a deep breath.

Slightly confused about how he had gotten here, Alistar decided to shelve those thoughts for later after seeing the lab was still the same as in his memories.

If what he came for was still in its place, the pain he went through while trying to come here would be more than worth it.
