The journey back to his home universe and by extension the empire, took three whole days of spatial travelling. And in that time, Alex didn't just focus on his travelling.
With nothing to do as he travelled, he continued his contemplative thoughts as every new discovery improved his understanding of his universe and his abilities. He gained new inspirations on how to better use his growing abilities.
'Hehe… finally home.' Alex mused in delight.
But something caught his attention as he drew closer to the borders of the empire. 'Why are there so many veil tears around here? And what's with the absurd number of void creatures?'
Alex furrowed his brows as many light years ahead of him were a swarm of void creatures, numbering in the millions, laying waste to everything in their path—stars, asteroids, planets and anything in between.
The void creatures moved with a clear purpose as even he could tell something was off after his long absence.
