30: Star Destruction (Part 1)

"Hum... I guess he is awake now."

"Huh?"

Jumping out of the bed, Matt Murdock, he instantly entered in position to defend himself if necessary. "Calm Down Matt..." Byron was drinking tea while sitting in a chair in the central room of the house, he was enjoying that place and all. The tea he obviously stole from the Ancient One, the tea she makes is wonderful... I guess thousands of years of experience in making tea are useful. "Who are you!?" Matt Asked while backing away a little bit.

"Me? My name is Byron Tartarus, Emperor of Tartarus." Byron smiled with nostalgia when he remembered when he started to create the Tartarus Archipelago and later the Tartarus Planet... "Tartarus!?" Matt knew that he could fight against Kingpin, Matt knew that he was a good fighter and very experienced, Matt knew that he could hear everything around him in a radius of 1km, but he doesn't dare to fight against Tartarus People... They are literally monsters! Matt developed a powerful animal instinct, he would feel danger and murderous intentions, besides he can see people's aura too.

But Tartarus people...

The first time he met someone that came from Tartarus, he was 'cleaning' the streets when he felt someone approaching him at inhuman speed, he dodged out of the way and tried to see the aura of the one who attacked him, and it was a deep red sphere. Matt needed to run away because of the dangerous feeling, but before he could run away, the one who attacked him said: "Never mess with Tartarus, bitch!" or something like that. So... Why? Why that person didn't kill him? Why did that person warn him? Matt asked himself those questions a little bit before throwing what happened that night in the back of his mind and paying it no attention anymore.

But, here we are!

"Oh? Do you know about Tartarus? Of course, you know, the only organization that goes worldwide, have spies in every other organization, govern, and even among normal people. And they all serve me~ Isn't that amazing!? I know right, it took me some time to create this beautiful empire, and I'm here to invite you to my empire. Before you ask why I will tell you." Byron paused for a second and smiled. "You have talent young man, so I'm offering you your vision back, but~ You need to work for me." Matt paused what he was going to ask, it seemed like he could read his mind!

"Actually, I can't read your mind, I just have experience... Or do I?" Byron joked but Matt unconsciously noted that he could read minds. "Why?" Matt asked while Byron was confused a little bit. "Excuse me, but, why me?" Matt asked really curious about it, why him among all people that have talent? "Well, you see... You are very different from normal humans, because of the radiation in your eyes, you can't see anymore. But~ On my empire, the medicine is so advanced that we can create an artificial eye that can see as a normal eye, or even better! And also, you can get some information, as an example, a certain Kingpin..."

Matt moved his head and opener his eyes, even when he can't see at all, he can determine where Byron is by just heart g his breathing, and that's what he did. "What you want? My soul...?" Byron chuckled and said with a British accent: "Oh please, I'm q gentlemen! I don't want your soul, I want your body. You will work for me~ A devil working for a demon isn't it cool?" Matt had a confused and strange expression in his face, Byron just approached him and touched his eyes, using [Time Rune], [Blood Rune], [Mind Rune] and other runes to completely regenerate Matt's eyes.

Matt just felt a hot liquid-like in his eyes, he felt a little pain too... After dome minutes the pain stopped and only the hot sensation was there. "Open your eyes, look up to the sky, and see!!!" Byron murmured in Matt's left ear while jokingly opening his eyes. When Matt looked around he saw his apartment, the clothes on the ground... The window, the sun!! Ouch, his eyes were still sensitive to light! When Matt looked at Byron he gasped for a second.

There he was, sitting on a chair, with two tails swinging around like a lazy cat, four bat-like wings stretched and relaxed, three horns on his head, one on the left and right side of his head respectively and another one on his forehead. He also had a black halo made of black flames. His eyes were red, but each time he blinked, his eyes changed color. From red to neon-bright green, to neon yellow, to neon blue, to red again and repeat, his eyes shine in the dark. Byron was using common clothes, a black t-shirt, black pants, and bare feet because he doesn't like shoes. Byron's hair was now white, but he could change it at will! Oh, he is also 2,40 Centimeters tall.

Matt sighed and said: "So you are the demon." Byron laughed, on his mouth full shark-like sharp teeth, Byron has full control over his Life Force, so he can easily do changes on his body by just changing the flow of the Life Force! Being young? Old? Woman? Man? No problem. But Byron doesn't want to become a woman, he has been a man for so long he can't see himself as a woman. Anyway... "Well, I'm THE Demon. How I said before, pleasure! Name's Byron Tartarus, Tartarus Empire (Planet) and Archipelago Emperor, and Organizational leader." Matt's eyes were completely white, he didn't have any melamine (Not sure if it's how its called) on his eyes, making his pupils white.

While Byron was talking with Matt...

Markus, Alexandra, Evy, Kevin, Harold, and Archenar were competing against each other! Each one of them had to try an cause a supernova, but this supernova not only needs to be controlled but also collected! Kevin wants to collect the supernova for later use, like a bomb.

"Okay! My turn." Markus walked forward, because of his training, he is now 2,05 centimeters tall, his hair continues a little blond, his eyes are purple, and his external appearance didn't change much. Holding his sword, yes sword! Byron went to Nidavelir to make a sword to his son and also himself. Focus! Markus channeled his Cosmic Energy on the sword and waved it towards the star. The wave created by the cosmic energy was transparent, but you could see space itself bending around the energy wave. When the energy wave hit the star, it simply dissipated. Kevin laughed together with his other siblings only Arch didn't know why they were laughing...
