BOOOM!!!

Another spaceship fell, and this was the last one. There were more, I am sure, but it seems that they had foolishly separated to spread their forces and conquer more land while killing more beings.

I quickly flew down as I entered the burning spaceship and found one of the aliens barely living.

I healed it and then asked Kireina to brainwash it, putting it to sleep as I threw it inside of my Inner World, alongside all the spaceships, which I put inside my Inventory, I had plans for them.

There was also a giant sea of loot already, so I picked it up and then quickly flew underground, breaking a hole in the ground and then filling it with dirt.

Seeing that no one could easily see me now, I created a rift in space and went inside my Inner World.

There were a lot of things to do now, mostly assess the loot, the giant spaceships, and more...

The Slarkobs received the messages of help too late, when they inspected and scanned the area where the small fleet sent to this unnamed city was, they found nothing.Not even the spaceships were left! Only some debris… and the blood of their comrades.

The aliens glanced at the footage sent by their comrades before they were to die, the figure of a human coated in golden flames and an aura of immense essence massacring entire spaceships using his large spear showed up. Even the prideful and fearless Slarkobs began to tremble in fear as they saw a measly human, a maggot which they crushed without any problem, fighting back against them like this.

He also saw that he wasn't alone, he had a large group of allies, some seemed incredibly strong, while others showcased powers they had never seen before. Some of them were large beasts while others seemed like humans such as this individual, but that they were able to shapeshift into half-beast beings or even summon beasts made of an otherworldly essence.

Who was this mysterious figure? It was the first time they had ever seen a pathetic human fight back like this! This clearly meant bad news… In the worst possible scenario, they would have to ask for the assistance of the other invaders. Although the Demons seemed to not care about allying them, the Celestials were different, and seemed sufficiently reasonable, especially the one that commanded them all.

"We can't let that being get away with such an insult! Not only he slaughtered them but… he insulted our race and called us cowards!"

"Blood! We'll spill his blood and all those he cares about!"

"This is the way of the Slarkobs, we slaughter, conquer, and never forget grudges!"

The monstrous squid-like aliens gibbered their tentacles in anger and also laughter as they imagined annihilating Gustav and his companions, completely unaware that he was long gone of that place, or well, he had just gotten inside a space which they could not actually detect, not even with the highest technology possible.

After all, even with all the amazing technology the Slarkobs had, they never managed to create a way to travel through spatial layers nor dimension, being left completely hopeless in regards to analyzing spaces in between the spatial layers.

Spatial Layers were endless layers of space that made up the fabric of space, which contained all of the dimensions by itself. Those capable of traveling in between universes inside a dimension had the power to travel through these spatial layers, a power that not many possessed.

And then there were those capable of manipulating spatial layers themselves, or even higher, entire universes… or even higher, dimensions…

The Great One Above All Creation was such an entity, he could be clearly called something like "God" by many, as through his ability to manipulate dimensions, could alter all of existence within them…

Such a level of power could not even be achieved by these invaders. The Slarkobs didn't have the power to travel through universes and dimensions, after all, they were merely using the cracks and rifts in space that led to other dimensions which had emerged across their universe when the Ragnarök began.

Each dimension had certain time differences, some took some more time than others for it to begin due to these differences. In Earth's years, the Slarkobs invasion had begun over 300 years ago, as it has been roughly 320 years since the rifts emerged in their own dimension. However, as Earth was a planet inside a small and faraway lesser dimension, when the merge started, it was one of the last ones to receive the merge effects.But many beings had already been waiting, sending some troops to invade this lesser and measly planet, amongst the many there were in this dimension. It was only one of the many there was a pathetic one at that.

Due to this, these powerful and otherworldly forces only sent small troops towards this world and many others similar to Earth, completely unaware that there would ever be someone like Gustav to fight back and grow ridiculously fast…

The Slarkobs would desire to bring even more cavalry if they could, but due to the dimensional fluctuations of time within each dimension, it would take months if not an entire year for troops to come from their original dimension towards here… Even if it felt like just a few minutes for the Slarkobs in that dimension…

The farther each dimension was from one another, the bigger the time differences were. And due to this, aside from the initial wave of invaders, Earth would have to wait at least a few months if not an entire year before any new invaders could come through their rifts, unless they were worlds very close to it, such as the world where the giant octopus tentacle comes from, or that of the world of Giant Beasts.

Although they had already sent the message for more reinforcements from their original dimension, the Slarkobs within Earth quickly decided to call the leader of the Celestials, who was sitting on a flying throne while watching over the planet.

Two beautiful Celestial women feed him with delicious food from their original world, each preparation was overflowing with immense quantities of essence that left the Slarkobs in shock.

Unlike them who came from an essence-less world where they maximized in the usage and adaptability of technology, the Celestials were like their complete opposites, as they came from an essence-rich world where every living being born there would be filled with enormous amounts of the essence, Celestial children were already considered Pseudo Demigods when born, and as they grew up, they would naturally attain the power of a Demigod and even acquire a Celestial Divine Weapon as the materialization of their essence, soul, and desires.

Due to all these blessings, the Celestials were a powerful race that had begun to invade other dimensions proactively… But even then, they were good at cooperating with other races sometimes, as long as they shared the same goals and split the gains…
