James had received Mirabelle's invitation from the First Universe. He still had ten thousand years before the conference. That
was plenty of time.
James returned to his seclusion sanctuary in the Human Realm’s Divine Dimension.
Initially, he planned to meet his family and friends before leaving for the First Universe. However, he decided not to see them yet
after some deliberation. To them, he was already a dead man.
It was better they did not reunite since he would have to leave them again. It would only make them miss him even more.
Thus, James headed to meet up with Henrik instead.
Besides Radomir, Henrik was the second strongest person in the Twelfth Universe. James wanted to ask for him to look over the
Twelfth Universe and maintain peace while he was gone.
Meanwhile, Mirabelle was also on her way back to the First Universe.
Although the Chaos was boundless, a powerhouse like Mirabelle could break through the time restriction when advancing at full
speed.
She returned to the First Universe in no time.
Mirabelle headed to a beautiful place in the First Universe. However, she was lost in her thoughts and seemed worried.
The Omnipotent Lord sensed that Mirabelle had returned and immediately came to see her.
“How was your trip to the Twelfth Universe? Did it go well?”
Mirabelle snapped out of her thoughts. She looked at the Omnipotent Lord, pointed at a chair beside her, and said, “You should
have a seat first.”
The Omnipotent Lord sat down.
Mirabelle took a deep breath and said, “Everything went smoothly. Forty-nine did not turn down our proposal and was in favor of
merging the twelve universes. He accepted the invitation and promised to attend the conference. However...”
Her expression became solemn.
The Omnipotent Lord asked, “However?”
Mirabelle asked, “How much do you know about the Dark Strife in the Dark World that happened back then?”
The Omnipotent Lord shook his head lightly and said, “I don’t know much. I only know that many powerhouses participated in
that fight. These powerhouses were powerful and were mostly Ninth Stage Lords.”
Mirabelle asked, “Then, do you know anything about the Dark World’s strength?”
The Omnipotent Lord looked at her and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why do you seem like a different person after returning
from the Twelfth Universe?”
Mirabelle said solemnly, “We might’ve underestimated the Dark World’s strength. After I went to the Twelfth Universe, I learned a
bit about the Dark Strife. Back then, a powerhouse fought and injured thee hundred Ninth Stage Lords!”
“Three hundred Ninth Stage Lords?”
Surprised, the Omnipotent Lord asked, “Are there so many powerful beings in the Dark World?”
As the First Universe’s Lord, he knew about the Dark World’s existence.
The Dark World was huge, and its size directly corresponded to the sum of all universes’ areas combined.
If a new universe were to be born, the area of the Dark World would also become larger.
The Omnipotent Lord had also been to the Dark World before and had a little bit of understanding of the place. He knew the
deepest parts of the Dark World were full of powerhouses.
