Erotic Adventures in the Omniverse: Vampire Lord got too many wives-Chapter 920: Emperor
"…" Hearing the taunt from the Second General, Zendax had no words to speak in retort; he could only hold in his rage.
After a moment, he observed the Second General carefully, and his ethereal eyes almost popped out of their wooden eye sockets as he exclaimed in great shock:
"Y- You have already reached the two-star level? H- How? Weren't you just at the mid-level of one star? How come you are already at the second star?"
After the mid-level comes the high level and then the next star. Even the jump from mid-level to high level could be considered astronomical; with just that, a person's strength would increase significantly, so reaching the next star made the Second General's strength soar by a whole lot.
"Hah, it's because, unlike our little Third General, I succeeded in clearing the universe I was tasked with, and upon returning I was generously rewarded by our Emperor.
My strength had risen so much that I can eradicate millions of you in an instant when you are at your peak." The Second General laughed after speaking, his face and body constantly changing shapes.
"Tch." Zendax couldn't deny it; after all, the difference between two and three stars was too large. It takes a great amount of energy and time to increase just from low to mid or mid to high.
Zendax was at one star at his peak, not even able to reach the low level of one star.
"Is the Emperor in his palace?" Zendax asked, ignoring the taunts while feeling self-pity.

"Second Brother, did you get a pet?" another voice sounded as another man appeared; his body was made of white jade, looking beautiful and statue-like.
It was the First General of the Topaz universe. He was aloof and didn't talk much, but his strength was only second to the Emperor in their universe; he was the most respected man because of his chivalric attitude, and he was most proud of his body's toughness.
"Kekeke, hello First General, it seems you mistook our little Third General for my pet, but it is easier to make such a mistake considering his current state, that is." The Second General held back his laugh while speaking.
"Ah, it seems that is indeed the case; forgive me, Third General. You took quite long to complete your task, and now you are returning in such a state.
You better have succeeded in your task, or the Emperor won't be too happy with you." the First General spoke with a solemn look and narrowed eyes, a dangerous gleam appearing on his face.
"Uh, I— I have to talk to the Emperor first regarding this matter; can you come along, First General?" Zendax bowed and spoke respectfully, even though he feared the statue-like man.
"Hmm, so you have indeed failed to capture that nameless universe, and that was supposed to be the easiest of the three tasks among those we had received." The First General spoke, his gaze probing the depths of Zendax's soul.
"I— I will explain it all in front of the Emperor; I don't answer to you, even if you are the First General." Zendax spoke, though his tone sounded rather meek.
"Follow me. If you are lucky, you might get to talk with the Emperor; if not, then you would have to wait for a few more years." The First General gestured for Zendax to follow and began to float away, heading straight towards the highest mountain, where a magnificent palace was built.
The mountain was shaped like a hand rising from the ground, with the palm facing upward and the five fingers spread around it; at the center of the palm, the large palace where the Emperor resides was present.
"Ha, you are quite lucky— able to cover such a large distance in that pathetic form; how fun would it have been if you were caught in the middle by some kid and then ended up as his toy." The Second General laughed, then flew away.
"Laugh all you want, I will definitely reach my peak and surpass it, then I will be the one laughing.
Anyway, I can't sense that first bastard's strength; he seems even stronger than before. The last time I saw him, he was already at two-star level— I wonder what his level is now." Zendax pondered, then silently floated behind the two men, taking in all the insults.
The energy seemed to become thicker as they moved closer to the mountain; a strong force seemed to act against them, making it difficult for anyone to approach the hand like mountain.
The two generals had no difficulty moving forward, but Zendax seemed pitiful as he was thrown back the moment he tried to get closer.
"Hahaha, I got that recorded— the more I see this, the funnier it gets." The Second General laughed loudly as he recorded the scene with a small Crystal-like pearl.
"Let's go," the First General said as he glanced back. So reluctantly, the Second nodded and caught the doll and flew towards the mountain.
The three of them soon landed on the palm of the mountain. The generals knelt at the boundary of the mountain, not even getting close to the palace, while the doll just fell down since it couldn't kneel.
"Emperor," the First General said, his tone full of servitude and respect.
"Come forward." A thunderous sound resounded instantly— just the sound alone possessed such a strong aura that ordinary rulers from Earth would get seriously injured, if not killed.
"Yes, Lord." The three of them had solemn expressions on their faces at that moment as they floated close to the large palace; they stopped right outside a huge door— it was the door to the Emperor's room; it seemed he was resting right now.
"Oh, so the Third has returned. If my memory serves right, you have achieved one-star level and you were sent out to conquer that nameless universe, is that right?" The voice was emotionless; there wasn't any anger or any other emotion, but Zendax's soul almost left his body just by hearing that voice.
Zendax fell to the ground, his wooden body shivering under the undeniable pressure; the Emperor could kill him in an instant even when he was at his peak.
"E- Emperor, M- My L- Lord, please forgive me. I m- made a mistake; t- that nameless universe wasn't as weak as we had e- expected.
The protector of t- that universe, haa haa, was at the high level of o- one star and was about to break through to the two-star level— yet despite being at that level, even Second General, who is already at the two-star level, wouldn't have been able to defeat him—"
Zendax began to explain, his voice cracking with fear; just a thought from the Emperor would be enough to completely eradicate him.
"Oh? You are saying someone at the high level of one star had the potential to even defeat someone at the two-star level?" The Emperor's aloof voice sounded, with a hint of intrigue.
"Y- Yes, my Lord, he possessed very strong abilities." Zendax began to reply.
