Chapter 2039 The insane Robin
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Hooom.A yellow square gate opened beside Robin, its edges humming with dense spatial energy, and a middle-aged man stepped out of it-
a man missing a leg and an arm, with a thick bandage tightly covering his eyes.
He was still in the process of wearing his clothes as he emerged, as if he had been pulled directly from his bed; a short red robe reaching to the knees, completely open down the middle, fluttering slightly in the unstable air around the portal.
"Welcome," Robin nodded toward the newcomer, his expression calm despite the chaos around them.
"Shh!"
But the Cosmic Elder ignored him completely and jumped a few steps forward, still tying his robe with hurried fingers as he examined the situation for himself, his soul sense sweeping the battlefield in a vast invisible wave.
"That number of nascent beasts on the other side... and the ones that already came through..."
"There are five adult beasts on the other side? At least ninety young ones..."
His voice shifted from confusion to disbelief, then to something closer to alarm.
Then he turned back to Robin, pointing behind him as if he had forgotten how to speak, his face frozen in pure shock:
"......?!?!!"
"Believe it or not, I wasn't trying to destroy the universe or anything like that," Robin said awkwardly, like a school principal being questioned about a disaster he caused.
"I was just trying to create a corridor between two sectors so I could move my armies easily-then this happened. Everything just... spiraled out of control." "H-How?"
In a voice that almost didn't exist, the Cosmic Elder asked,
"How do you try to connect two sectors and end up attacking the End-of-World Barrier and breaking it? How did you even break it in the first place?!"
His disbelief
so intense it bordered on outrage.
Then he examined the gate again, his senses probing its structure, and shouted at Robin:
"And how in hell is this gate so ridiculously stable?! This thing shouldn't even be able to exist in this state!"
"Ugh, it's that damned Die of Judgment-an ability master law of Causality," Robin shook his head in frustration.
"After I finished constructing this worm corridor made from third-grade spacetime, I asked the die where to direct it to get the most benefits- and it brought me here.
Honestly... it's the die's fault. I didn't choose this destination-it chose me." "Causality... and spacetime?!"
The Cosmic Elder muttered, then deep confusion spread across his face, his thoughts clearly colliding.
"Wh- what is this?! What kind of combination is that supposed to be?!"
"Well, old man, we can save the confusion for later,"
Robin pointed toward the gate, his tone sharpening.
"Althera might not hold much longer, and if she falls, everything here collapses." Shwaaaah!
At that moment, another massive wave of purple-black fire surged toward Althera, pouring out endlessly as if it had no limit, dense like burning oil and violent like a living storm.
The Cosmic Elder turned back toward the gate, bent slightly to scratch his bare leg in an almost casual motion, then finally spoke, his voice calm but heavy:
"Wait here a moment."
Whoosh.
The Cosmic Elder vanished.
No one knew where he went, and no one could trace his movement.
In the very next instant, the purple-black flame attack abruptly stopped, as if something inside had forcibly crushed it.
In the moment after that, everyone saw a strange brown glow deep inside, spreading like an internal eruption.
In the moment after that, a scream was heard:
"AAAAAAAOOOOOH-!!"
"Haa... haa..."
Althera caught her breath, watching the gate with tightly furrowed brows, her grip tightening on her weapon, not knowing what was happening inside and unable to sense the source clearly.
Whoosh
At that moment, a nearby nascent space beast tried to escape, wings flaring
desperately-
-but slash-
a precise thrust from Althera pierced its wing and stopped it mid-motion,
sending it crashing down.
She shouted, her voice cold and absolute:
"That's enough. Not a single one of you is leaving.
I'm not chasing you all across the sector!!"
Then she stabbed toward the farthest one without hesitation.
The nascent space beasts began moving again after the crushing pressure from
the adult space beast disappeared.
The guards also returned to battle, formations reforming instantly.
Richard, at that moment, was fighting one alone, his body blazing with violent
energy...
The massive battlefield ignited once more-
"..?"
Robin slowly scanned his surroundings, confusion etched across his face.
The Cosmic Elder had unquestionably done something.
Robin could feel it clearly-an overwhelming aura of balance flowing from the other side of the gate, like a cosmic scale being forcibly corrected.
He could also sense the life energy of an adult space beast dispersing, unraveling into the void-an unmistakable sign of its death.
And yet...
Why had the Cosmic Elder chosen to strike the other side instead of simply
annihilating the gate itself?
The question gnawed at him.
Whoosh.
Nearly half an hour later, space rippled again.
The Cosmic Elder reappeared in front of Robin, standing calmly as if nothing
extraordinary had happened.
In his hand, he held three small crystalline cubes.
Inside each cube floated a purple-black sphere, dense and luminous, like a dark
grape made of condensed cosmic night.
"Take these," he said casually.
"I managed to secure three-the rest escaped.
All the juveniles fled as well, and the nascent beasts scattered in every
direction.
The other side is quiet now... completely stabilized."
Then his gaze shifted to Robin, narrowing slightly.
"Hey... are you still carrying the box with you?"
"This...?"
Robin's eyes sharpened instantly as he recognized them.
"Crystals of three adult space beasts?!"
"..."
The Cosmic Elder scanned Robin's body in a single glance, his perception
piercing through layers of energy and spatial concealment.
Then he clicked his tongue in open irritation.
"How is it even possible that you're not carrying the Sun-Sealing Box on your
person?
Yes, the monstrous power sealed inside it makes it nearly impossible to store in
a space ring-
but that only means you should be holding it day and night."
His voice hardened.
"What if it falls into the wrong hands?
What
someone else gains access to it?"
He snorted coldly.
"Is this how you handle entrusted relics and cosmic-level responsibilities?"
"Easy, old man."
Robin raised one hand calmly, signaling him to relax.
Then-without hesitation-he stabbed his hand sideways into empty space.
Half of his arm vanished.
Slowly, deliberately, he began pulling something out.
Reality warped around his hand as a wooden box emerged, dragged out of
nothingness itself.
"This?"
The Cosmic Elder's expression shifted instantly.
He focused his senses and power completely on the point where Robin had
pierced space.
With deep concentration, he perceived the structure hidden there....
A tiny cube existed beside Robin-barely one meter in size.
Yet it was completely severed from surrounding spacetime, isolated from
reality itself.
It wasn't inside space-it existed outside it.
Like a private micro-universe.
"...It's spacetime indeed," the Cosmic Elder muttered.
"Who do you think I am, old man?"
Robin grinned broadly, eyes gleaming with confidence.
"This is my private safe space.
Anything I place inside it-no matter what it is, no matter how dangerous-
stays bound to me permanently.
Wherever I go, it follows."
His smile deepened.
"It took me fifteen years to engineer this spacetime box so it would follow me
everywhere.
Fifteen years of refinement, failure, and reconstruction.
But I can assure you- not a single second of that time was wasted."
He reached forward and took the cubes from the Cosmic Elder's hand.
"Much appreciated."
Then he opened the wooden box, placed them inside carefully, and closed it.
A satisfied smile formed on his face.
Now he possessed twenty-eight adult space beast crystals,
in addition to the Ancestor Crystal.
An absurd, terrifying level of wealth and power.
After returning the box to the safe space, he looked back at the Cosmic Elder
and smiled again.
"I honestly don't know why you're giving me all three instead of saving them for
your children or successors," he said lightly, "but... I won't refuse free cosmic treasures. Thanks."
The Cosmic Elder shook his head slowly.
"I have no way to use them."
His voice was calm, almost indifferent.
"Keeping them with me serves no purpose."
Robin's smile vanished instantly.
A cold silence passed through his expression.
...Is this old man trying to get me killed?
Then he pointed toward the gate, his face tightening with irritation.
"Then why go to the other side at all if you don't need these things?" he asked,
"Wouldn't it have been far simpler-far cleaner- to just destroy the gate?" "Destroy it?"
The Cosmic Elder frowned deeply, his expression turning severe.
"Are you insane?"
