Chapter 976 Finding the second seed  ( The Universal Queen's POV )

While Odin looked for the seeds outside the controlled universe, the queen began her search for them within the controlled universe as per Max's instructions.

Compared to Odin, the queen could search a much larger area in a much shorter time period while also keeping an eye out for anomalies to happen.

While even after days of trying to search for the seeds initially proved fruitless, a single incident on a remote planet got her attention when mythical creatures that were only objects of fantasy began appearing randomly on the planet.

Creatures like the eight legged horse and mountain sized giants began to appear on a planet where neither horses nor giants were supposed to exist as the queen suspected this to be the work of the seed of creation.

The planet in question was called 'Firveldar' a tiny planet with a population of barely 2 million light elves.

It was protected by Ranger Commander Ibrahim who was a distant cousin of the ruling king and one of the very few peak tier6 warriors who was on the cusp of a tier7 promotion.

When the queen manifested on the planet in her physical form, she was instantly met with elves trying to shoot arrows towards her head as her appearance with six legs and tentacles for arms was no different than that of a monster for the elves. The queen did not protest against these arrows either as to her such things were not even worth mentioning, however, while the majority of the elves failed in recognising her, there was one elf who did not fail in realising who she was as he made a beeline for running away.

The elf who tried to run away was none other than Ibrahim himself who had seen the universal queen in her full glory once before when Rudra gathered all the gods of the universe under a single roof to declare his position as the supreme lord.

Ibrahim felt his heart beat out of his chest as he knew that if the queen was on his remote planet then it could only mean that she was there to steal the golden jewel, an object of great power and intrigue which was constantly refining and improving Ibrahim's body just by him being in contact with it.

" Running away is futile-, Hand over the treasure" the queen said in her usual mechanical voice as she trapped Ibrahim inside a tier10 barrier. action

Unlike Odin, the queen had no reservations about giving her opponent a fair warning about life and death before killing them and she was sure that if Ibrahim did not comply with her demands in the next five seconds she would not repeat herself and kill him instantly, however, what she did not expect was that her tier10 barrier spell would be broken ever so easily by Ibrahim as he not only broke the barrier but also created two ginormous floating heads that held power akin to tier8 monarchs to fight the queen.

As he continued with his escape, the queen had to first deal with the two heads who shot towards her lasers from their eyes that had the strength of a tier8 attack.

Thankfully, the queen was way beyond the tier8 stage and made short work of her opponents as she no longer tried to imprison Ibrahim once she took care of them and rather killed him instantly.

It was a clean death as she decapitated his fleeing body, but to her astonishment, the seed of creation tried to close the wound and reconfigure the head instantly, however, the queen did not allow for such an outcome to happen.

Blasting the decapitated body to ashes, she ensured that the seed of creation could not convert the dead body into some abnormal monster as only when the body was charred beyond recognition did the seed of creation sit upon the ashes with a shiny golden hue to it. As instructed, the queen collected it before heading back for Dombivli where her Lord Max was currently stationed.

( Meanwhile Rudra )

Rudra had no idea as to why he could not influence the personality of the seeds that were created when he ascended the universe.

He desperately tried to contain the corrupting effects of the seeds of creation and destruction, however, while he could dilute their effects by 20-30%, he could not completely eliminate the inherent corruption that came with controlling a seed.

If Max proceeded to take those seeds in his body, he would suffer the same issues as Rudra did with two voices constantly screaming in his head as he would have to face the mental struggle of suppressing two very powerful seeds and not letting them affect his personality.

While it was not impossible and Rudra had confidence that Max would be able to control the power inside the seeds, it did bother him that while the perfect warrior had a much more exorbitant control over the seed of chaos's personality, he did not have such elaborate control.

Although he could feel his remnant soul within the seeds and his two soulmancers, Rudra could not influence that power as if it was his own despite having a connection.

There was something about the celestial realm that distorted his connection with bits of his soul in the lower realm and while researching about this disruption and finding a way to overcome it was not impossible, Rudra did not want to waste time doing it unless it was absolutely necessary.

Three runs and countless planning later, he could not even scratch the perfect warrior which was why he much rather prefered spending his day obsessing over how to fight the perfect warrior rather than researching other mysteries.
