Chapter 451: Raleerus

Somewhere in the expanse of the universe, lightyears away from Earth, stood a planet half the size of Pluto. Suffice it to say, with its surface area only comparable to that of a large country on Earth, the population within the planet was packed almost like sardines— perhaps an exaggeration, but it was closer to the truth if anything.

Hotis 4J is also used as a sort of transport hub— an outpost at the very end of the known and chartered Universe. It is also the planet closest to Earth that actually has sentient and intelligent life.

Still, even with its population larger than what it could accommodate, Hotis 4J was and is a peaceful place for travellers and explorers to rest before they delve into the Unknown.

Lots of different species and races lived there— some couldn't even be described as humanoid anymore. There are others that have evolved from their insect ancestors, and some that are more akin to that of a snail.

But of course, one must not judge the creatures here based on the ideologies and knowledge one has on Earth, because for them, humans looked odd. Still, most of the species within the micro planet actually looked humanoid— as it seems to be the aesthetic end of all developed life.

But no matter what stage or what sort of progenitor a species have, they seemed to have one singular language that they could understand.

Screams.

Right now, somewhere in Hotis 4J, in one of its largest establishments— all sorts of different faces currently had their mouths opened; or whatever version of a mouth they had. All of them, letting out a scream as they stared at the humanoid in front of them.

The humanoid sported a long, white hair that reached below his waist; freely flowing with the wind as he moved around the stage he was standing on. He then stretched his hand towards one of the one-eyed humanoids in front of him, causing her to let out an almost visceral scream.

"V' la qest, Raleerus!" The female cyclops then said, and in a rough translation— 'I love you, Riley Ross!'.

Riley Ross, or rather, his clone, was currently dancing and singing on the large stage; almost more than a thousand people were cheering and screaming his name— Raleerus.

And if someone from Earth were to listen to him sing, one would know that his song is actually from one of its TV shows, the opening song of Italian Mafia Reborn. At first, when Raleerus was left by Riley on this far and unfamiliar planet, he just found a place to hide and lie low.

But as soon as his connection with Riley was severed— that was when he started venturing out and meeting with the other people. Suffice it to say, he had learned a lot about the cultures of the different species.

Raleerus still needed to feed himself. And so, in a weird turn of events, he got a job as a musician in one of the planet's hotels. He played an instrument similar to a piano, learning it almost instantly.

…But it wasn't until he started singing that his fame skyrocketed in a blink of an eye. The others were completely unaware of what language he was speaking, but it didn't matter— music, after all, is a universal language.

The whole planet basically knew who he was now. He was basically popular with all the females of all the species within Hotis 4J.

"Kill! Kill! I want to kill all of you!" Raleerus continued to sing, using his telekinetic abilities to do all sorts of fantastic and magical movements around the stage.

Almost a thousand people were screaming and cheering for him, causing Raleerus to put his all into his performance. Soon, however, the music stopped as several beeping noises could be heard echoing throughout the entire auditorium.

"..." Raleerus's performance was abruptly cut short, causing everyone to let out groans and gasps of frustration. They then all retrieved their media devices, as they were the ones letting out the ringing that filled the stage.

Several holograms started popping out from their gadgets, and soon— a large hologram also emerged from the stage, just behind Raleerus.

[Greetings, the rest of the Known Universe, my name is Riley Ross. I am from an unknown…]

"!!!"

Raleerus's eyes quickly widened as soon as he saw who was speaking. As for the rest of the people there, they once again let out gasps of shock— their eyes, looking back and forth between the person in the hologram and Raleerus.

None of them wanted to be racist— but they were sure the two looked eerily identical to each other.

"..." Everyone continued to watch in silence, that is… until the person in the hologram ripped someone's head open— and not just anyone, an evaniel Guardian.

"..." Raleerus's eyes started to squint as he continued to watch— and soon, his ears perked up.

[...to the clone I left on the micro planet Hotis 4J; you have my permission…

…Kill everyone.]

And with that, the universe-wide broadcast was cut; leaving only silence to flow throughout the entire auditorium.

"..." Raleerus then very slowly turned his head back to his audience, causing them to slightly flinch and instinctively take a step back. None of them knew what the person from the hologram just said, but judging by the way he just executed an evaniel Guardian without even blinking an eye… it wasn't anything good.

However, as soon as they saw Raleerus smile, all their worries disappeared. And soon, the music once again started.

"V' la qest, Raleerus!" The female cyclops once again let out a scream that revived all the cheers again. Raleerus quickly turned his eyes toward the female cyclops, pointing at her with his index finger as the smile on his face grew even wider.

"R… Raleerus!" The female cyclops' cheers grew even louder as Raleerus suddenly isolated her from the rest, "V' la qe—"

"Bang!"

And before she could cheer again… her head suddenly exploded.

"..." Those that were near the female cyclops instantly shut whatever mouths they have. Still, the cheers of those that were far away still continued. And very soon, they started running away.

Sadly for them, the others thought they were just doing some sort of crazy cheering and started pushing them back. And very soon, screams of terror started to mix with cheers of passion and delight.

"Oh," Raleerus took in a very long and very deep breath as he closed his eyes. He thought that the happy screams and cheers that the people were giving him were enough— but now that terror was once again in the formula, he realized it wasn't even a competition.

Screams of fear, terror, anguish, and pain were still the most beautiful set of music that could ever grace his ears.

And so, as he opened his eyes— a red glow now emerged from them. He then turned towards the crowd of people…

…before letting out some sort of visceral breath as he started disintegrating everyone with the red, violent beam that poured from his eyes.

"!!!"

The people started screaming. The once happy air that filled the entire auditorium, now but a house of chaos and death. Whatever sort of anatomy they have, bits and pieces of them were now scattered on the floor as their blood of red, blue, clear, yellow, and whatever other color created a pool of black.

And as soon as the screams inside the auditorium were gone, Raleerus stretched his arms to the side, splitting the entire establishment in half. And with a small breath, he pushed the two halves away— causing them to violently fly and slam through whatever was in their path.

He then ascended to the planet's purple skies; his eyes, looking at the purple desert as it got smaller and smaller in his view until his hand could cover the entire planet.

"I've always wanted to do this," Raleerus then let out a small whisper as he pointed his palm at Hotis 4J. He then very slowly rotated his hand, almost imitating the rotation of the planet— and then, with another breath…

…his hand suddenly stopped moving.

Raleerus's eyes reflected Hotis 4J as its surface basically ripped itself apart— almost twisting as its lands violently ruptured. The destruction of the planet may seem slow from where Raleerus was floating, but for the millions of people that were in it… their deaths were instantaneous.

"..."

"...Perhaps I shouldn't have done that," Raleerus then blinked a couple of times as he saw the planet caving in, "Now I have nothing to do."

"..."

"..."

Raleerus then turned his head toward a ship that was floating near him— its engines, about to fire and activate. But before it could drive away, Raleerus stretched his hand toward it and caused it to halt.

Raleerus then pulled the ship toward him, before staring at its clear windows and looking at the person inside.

"I know you can't understand me…

…but can you take me to your planet?"

***

"Elder Tedi! See what you've done!?"

"..."

Back in the spherical room filled the Elders holograms, the Grand Elder's voice echoed violently. Although it wasn't in real-time, as the Grand Elder, he had the privilege of having the authority to observe all of the Known planets.

And there, he saw the destruction of Hotis 4J--- not even an Earth hour of Riley's broadcast.

Riley was no longer there, and Vera was just sitting on the floor, not even saying a word as her tears have already dried themselves completely.

"Princess Vera! This is an order--- do not let Riley Ross leave the planet at all costs!"

"..." Princess Vera just glanced at the Grand Elder for a few seconds, before shaking her head,

"Sorry, Grand Elder...

...but the evaniels are siding with Riley Ross."
