As Alex''s senses delved into his void core and took a metaphysical appearance of his real body, he was opened to a new world entirely; almost like awakening in the origin space where everything began.

His void core was a realm of boundless energy, a vast expanse of swirling darkness and ethereal light. The space seemed endless, filled with currents of void energy pulsing like veins through an infinite cosmos.

At the heart of this dimension—this realm—was another core; a core within a core. A spinning black hole of incomprehensible density.

*Gulp*

Alex gulped down the rising excitement within. ''Is this all inside me?'' he couldn''t believe he had something like this within himself.

The gravitational pull wasn''t just physical, it was metaphysical, holding the chaotic energies and his dual abilities in perfect harmony. It was what produced the spinning effects of his outer core.

Alex observed the black hole keenly. It radiated a subtle yet overwhelming power, a connection to the cosmic fabric of his universe. He could feel it as the sensation was akin to being connected to something bigger—something like an extension of himself.

His body floated towards the black hole, yet he felt no discomfort at all—no gravitational pulls as he floated right before the massive black hole.

A thought from him and the black hole pulsed, releasing an attractive force that siphoned the surrounding energies.

Another made the hole release it like an exploding star—sending waves of energy past him and through the opening to his body.

''This is scary...'' he grinned slightly despite his thoughts and took a meditative pose before closing his eyes.

Focusing on the connection Alex deduced to have with the universe, he made the black hole siphon the remaining energies in the boundless space.

Slowly, the void energies entered the spinning black hole that shone with golden and blueish-purple light rings.

Alex was not sure how much time passed, but he managed to make the black hole devour all the surrounding void energy.

What was left was an empty blackness and the black hole. Even with all the energies taken, the black hole seemed to want more.

And in that moment, the attractive force of the hole brought forth a new change in the darkened space. The dark blankness appeared to be drawn in as well; almost like the fabric of the realm was being pulled in.@@@@

He furrowed his brows in confusion while the researchers turned to him when they did not sense any form of void energy from Alex. It was like it completely disappeared.

"What the hell did he do?" Dr. Venley asked no one in particular as his team were just as puzzled. Even if they couldn''t do anything about his void energy, they could sense it.

"Just go!"

He bellowed not worried about himself as being a Class S awakened, he was faster than lightspeed and could make it out before the wave hit.

''Do I take him with me?'' Jason wasn''t sure what to do at the moment as Alex was guaranteed to survive the wave.

But chances of finding him again were very low and who knows, the next time, he wouldn''t be so weak as compared to him.

Abruptly, Alex opened his eyes and looked directly at Jason and the man could tell Alex had a grin on his face despite the ventilator over his mouth and nose.

"You..." Jason crawled.

He didn''t know how but at that moment he felt what was happening was Alex''s fault. He took a step forward only to stop.

[Sir, we won''t make it! The wave suddenly accelerated!]

The panicked voice came again and Jason knew what his priorities were—saving his men. Without a second thought, he zoomed out of the lab to assist his people.

He may be a hard master, but it was his people who got the job done when he couldn''t move.

''Besides, we''ve secured a lot of his stem cells... they should be enough.'' He comforted himself and appeared in the void.

But he had underestimated the speed of the cosmic mana wave. With the timeframe the warning came till now, only half a minute had passed, but the cosmic mana wave was already here.

"Impossible..."

Jason muttered and tuned to the ships that were still preparing the startup protocol for their hyperdrives. There was no time to save anyone as the space pocket was ripped open and the rushing waves descended on them.

"This is not normal..."

Normal cosmic mana waves moved at the speed of light; that has been how it has always been. Explore more stories with My Virtual Library Empire

But what Jason was seeing was beyond him. The radar showed and estimated a couple of minutes but not even a minute had gone by!

With no other choice, Jason could only save himself, abandoning his men as the cosmic mana waves swallowed their ships, displacing them to who knows where and claiming the lives of all those who were onboard before finally swallowing the hidden base as well.

The space pocket collapsed with a mighty boom, akin to an exploding star that fractured the surrounding space and left behind more veil tears in the area.
