Chapter 204 Intruder
The dragon's eyes narrowed at the projection that shone brighter than the stars. With an irritated huff, he retracted his large wings.
"I saw the name, so it's not a big deal to stay until the end."
A lot of new names appeared and disappeared each day in front of him, so he never got interested in them. However, the narrow slit within his dark eyes remained unmoved when he looked at the projection with unblinking eyes.
The new name 'Kyle' that appeared out of nowhere at the bottom of the projection gained a brown color. There were three colors in the projection, golden, red, and brown.
The red color indicated the person had long surpassed the divine rank, the golden color indicated the person had stepped into divine rank, and lastly brown color showed the person was a mortal who had a chance to reach the divine rank in the future.
"Hmm? What a pity, their ancestors are trapped within the second realm due to him, and yet so many new names are appearing just to suffer alongside them."
The dragon's voice sounded amused. He had seen many powerful names appear on this projection but for someone to gain a place among those names they had to be very extraordinary.
"It was majestic indeed in the past but now it's meaningless."
He gazed at a faraway place where a brutal war was going on. Many were dying and many were running away to save themselves. A sad sigh escaped his mouth. He was going to fly away when the name 'Kyle' shone again.
"Hmm, it's moving?"
He murmured under his breath and fixed his eyes on the name.
His breath hitched when the name brightened and moved upward with an incredible speed.
At the start, the name was at the bottom means he was the weakest.
"This..."
The dragon's eyes widened slightly. It was very rare for the projection to improve a mortal ranking because they hadn't even reached the divine rank.
Under his intense stare, the name didn't stop moving, with rapid speed it jumped above, leaving behind all the brown names.
After arriving under the golden names, it stopped for a second.
"Oh? It's seemed this person would be the strongest among the individuals who will reach divine ranks in the futur..."
His sentence was cut short because in the next second the name started moving again. His eyes contracted when the name shot above the golden names like they were nothing.
"What's happening?"
The dragon's surprise cry rang out within the empty void but the name didn't stop jumping. It crossed the first half of the projection and left the golden names behind, stopping beneath the red names.
"It finally stopped..."
As if waiting for the cue, in the next second the name moved again. The dragon who had seen so many ethereal things within his long life trembled. No one knew if it was due to excitement or something else.
He cried out with strange emotions but the name didn't stop jumping. After a whole minute, the brown name stood proudly above all the other's names.

"Who is this person?!"
The Dragon zoned in and tried to probe. He even used his authority after such a long time just to see who and where was this person.
"His name is above everyone else! Does that mean he would be the one to stop the war in the future?"
"If it's true I can't let his identity get exposed!"
He cried out and wanted to hide the name from the projection but in the next second, the brown name turned grey. After two more seconds, the name started to turn even lighter in shade. Soon, it became invisible but its spot remained unclaimed.

The dragon stopped and looked at the projection. His eyes went wide for the second time when he saw how his hope was crushed so easily.
"Hahahah, so you are not sure if he would stay alive but in your opinion, he would be the strongest if he survived?"
The dragon laughed loudly, the void around him trembled as he mocked himself.
"What did I even expect?"
He shook his head with a bitter sigh. He glanced at the faraway place and closed his eyes.
"This news will soon spread far and wide. Moreover, I have to leave so I will just peek at his condition."
A small piece of consciousness shot out from the dragon's head and entered the projection. He was the guardian of this projection that was created by a supreme existence a long long time ago, so he was able to see the information regarding the names shining brightly on the projection.
He searched within the projection and the next moment a frown appeared on his face.
"A hidden planet?"
Nevertheless, his consciousness passed through the projection, heading straight toward the hidden planet.
His consciousness turned into a tiny wisp of energy, it traveled even faster than the speed of light and stopped outside the hidden planet because it could sense a few divine presences inside the planet.
The dragon raised his eyebrow with interest. However, he immediately ordered the wisp to enter the planet.
With a flash, the wisp dived down at an incredible speed. It passed through the protection layer of the planet, a row of clouds, and many mountains.
After what seemed to be an eternity, the wisp lingered above a quiet forest. It passed through the many trees and arrived in an area filled with ice. With a last jump, the wisp entered the ice.
While all this was happening, Kyle was walking aimlessly between the infinite space. He was troubled with confusion but suddenly the space around him trembled and he unconsciously looked up.
Kyle's eyes contracted and he almost lost his balance, two big eyes were staring at him from above.
He didn't know how and why but his mind started ringing alarm bells when he stared back at those majestic and dark eyes. Unconsciously a single word appeared at the back of his mind.
'Intruder.'
Kyle grabbed his chest but then looked down at himself. He couldn't feel his own heart. Now, he knew what was wrong with his body. He couldn't feel anything.
He trembled and pointed at those dark eyes filled with nothing but two white slits.
"Who?..."
