Divine Path System

BOOM!

KACHA!

The rumble of thunder reverberated through hundreds of miles as space itself seemed to be distorted.

With no gap, a huge shockwave suddenly erupted, throwing off ghost ship into the distance.

"Sovereign Ares!"

As the ghost ship dashed away from the field of conflict, Varian's gaze stayed fixated on the conflict.

Two blinding golden lights clashed against each other.

The lightning dragons that seemed invincible were slain under a mighty lightning spear.

Their fight seemed to extend for hundreds if not, thousands of miles.

Varian watched their scale of power and felt an intense desire brewing in his heart.

This power held the authority over the lives of billions. That included the lives of people such as Shadow Guardians.

"Haa " Varian exhaled heavily and collapsed onto his couch.

As expected, once Sovereign Ares intervened, Thunder King was caught up.

Ghostship no longer faced any danger and completely left the abyss zone.

And when they did, a spaceship stopped by them, revealing the short man with a long red beard.

"For you." He said and had his spaceship throw out a metal box.

Ghostship retrieved the box and placed it in front of Varian.

Kal

With light tap, a hologram popped up and asked several questions Varian and Irene pre-agreed upon.

So, after the answer, the box opened and presented a shiny blue card.

Varian put the blue card on the couch and through the connected spaceship channels, thanked the man.

"Thanks for your help on Pluto!”

"Thank her, not me. I'm just following orders."” Zich Nial waved his hand and nodded at the man with the mask in appreciation.

To be clear, he was indeed following Sovereign Irene's orders.

After learning that their journey would be delayed, she decided to help them out.

She collected the CFTs from a third party who was supplied by Maya, then spent her own fortune to buy space stones and sent her own family's powerhouse to Neptune from Uranus through teleportation formation.

After reaching Neptune, Nich immediately traveled to Thunder Abyss.

Then, he CFT-ed to Pluto dungeon.

Thankfully, the co-ordinates were already set by Maya, so everything went smoothly.

And just like that, he picked up Varian's team, once again used the CFT to teleport back to Thunder Abyss.

The only problem was that since abyssals already detected CFT, they would be extremely strict.

So, unlike the first time when Varian did it with relative ease, this one was way more dangerous.

Sovereign Irene was the one responsible, but Nich Nial came here in person, knowing the risk. So, Varian was also grateful to him.

"I hope to hear the correct news across the federation soon. You can do it!" Zich Nial cheered and dashed away.

"..without nearly dying, sure," Varian muttered and rubbed his forehead.

As the situation cooled down, Blue Flash went back to researching the Gamma Expo event while Enigma..practiced?

Varian shrugged and glanced towards the box again.

There was an ID card.

After tapping the card on his comm, the card shone and disintegrated.

Varian saw the hologram of a new military identity card and clicked his tongue. "Does this count as exploiting public funds, hmm?"

Waving his hand, he said. "Boo, Neptune's spaceport”

After an hour or so, Varian approached Neptune.

Without even asking, Enigma suppressed the tracker and collapsed on her bed, coughing out blood.

Varian patted her lightly with his mental power and they soon reached the spaceport.

The spaceport was overly guarded. It had to be.

Because just a day ago, 'Enigma’ used the teleportation formation from Mars to Uranus.

And just a day ago, a level 9 awakener also used a fake ID.

Not many knew that these people were actually Varian and Bali. But that didn't change the fact that spaceport security was viewed poorly.

Varian wore the disguise treasure Enigma gifted him a while ago and easily reached the teleportation room.

{Please show your ID}

Varian glanced at the two level 7 guards at the door and the corner of his lips twitched.

They were staring at him intensely. If they had even the slightest suspicion, they'd arrest him.

Yesterday's event was still burning their shame.

Varian tapped his comm and let the AI do its thing.

{Verified with the spaceport database.}

A few more seconds passed, and Varian's palms started sweating.

Counting the time, Enigma's suppression would be over anytime soon.

Varian kept a mental focus on his ghost ring. If anything goes wrong, he'd activate the teleportation and escape.

If he was knocked out, things could get really, really dangerous.

{Verified with the central database.

Khak, happy journey.}

The doors opened and Varian hurried in. With a light sound, the formation activated and when he opened his eyes, Varian found himself in a similar, yet different room.

Without wasting any time, he showed his ID and walked out of the room when he sensed that Enigma was about to faint.

He rushed to a washroom and the next moment, the washroom was blown away as a freaking spaceship flew out of the washroom, scaring people doing important things there and exiting the spaceport.

"Ghostship!"

"The tracker is blinkin..E-Enigma? Damn it!"

"Chase!"

Level 9 auras exploded into the air and chased after the ghost ship.

Even though they were being chased by Uranus' strongest awakeners, Varian didn't worry.

He walked into Enigma's room—something Boo made after the Pluto escape, and saw Blue Flash tending to Enigma.

Enigma was unconscious and weak...he could hear her feeble breathing as if even breathing was a challenge. There was a frailness to her that contrasted her usual strong self.

Varian glanced at Enigma's sleeping face..only the eyes because their face was still covered by the mask.

He looked at her with a caring gaze and Blue Flash noticed this. She thought he'd ask a sentimental question and waited for it eagerly.

"Does her mask never come off?"

" Blue Flash nearly wanted to slap him. "It's a treasure. You need level 9 attacks to take it off. She took lot of risk for that mask."

"Oh." Varian nodded and walked out.

'Aren't you going to at least ask about her condition?' She thought and glared at him.

Right then, her space sense caught an external force gently patting Enigma's head.

'And who else could it be?"

Blue Flash's lips curled up as she stared at Varian's silent back..
