Chapter 458 What do you get when you cross an eye with a tongue?

From within his position in his Soulscape, the original Alex watched the unfolding situation in the Four Moons World with both scrutiny and tension.
"So Sierra had started it already…" Alex muttered as he observed the massive illusory planet hovering above the Four Moons World. Even when he's not occupying any physical body as of now, Alex still had a tight sensation in his chest at the illusory planet began to fuse its body with the Four Moons World.
"That illusory planet is Sierra's real form. That's her true form as a World Soul, and now she is exposing it to start the possession." Alex thought as he kept his control on Blue Alex as stable as possible.
"This possession will only be a success once that whole illusory planet had melded with the body of the Four Moons World. If there's even a part of this illusory planet that is not melded with the Four Moons World, then the possession won't work at all." Alex thought grimly as the real fusion process began.
He then frowned as he noticed that the speed of the illusory planet was not up to his liking. It moved in a pace that is fast compared to its body, although with the way that things are going on right now, this speed it still too slow in Alex's opinion.
"Tsk, if the speed of the possession goes on like this, Sierra's soul will be exposed to more and more dangers. I mean, just look at Malthus! He's already trying to attack her already!" Alex exclaimed inwardly, with his focus now centered on the demon.
Alex can perfectly see Malthus pointing his overbearing weapons at the illusory planet, with his body screaming his intention to attack it. There's no doubt that Malthus is about to unleash an attack at this point, and there seems to be no one nearby that are here to stop him.
"The other Generals must have seen this possession already, but they are not yet making a move… Are they waiting to see on what will happen if Malthus tries to attack Sierra's soul?" Alex mused as he saw that aside from Malthus, there was no one else in the Four Moons World that had expressed their interest to attack the illusory planet.
"Hmph, these old fogeys are getting slyer and slyer this time around…. But do they think that they can just see Malthus succeeding in his attack? Hehehe, of course that will not happen in my watch!" Alex declared as the weapons behind Malthus began to glow with power once more.
But even when Alex made this declaration, he seemed to be not interested on stopping Malthus from attacking. Instead, he just let Blue Alex watch from the sidelines.
"…"
With the amount of power present on Malthus' weapons at this point, all of them only needed a signal from Malthus to show their power, and demon naturally did not delay it from happening.
"Boom!"
With a sound comparable to that of a destruction of a heavenly body, all of Malthus' weapons roared out intensely as they released their destructive power. All of these destruction were sent towards the illusory planet's massive body, which was unable to dodge any of these attacks.
"Hahahaha! You stupid blue freak! Why are you not stopping me now? Are you perhaps afraid of this attack?" Malthus said in a laughing fit as he stared directly at Blue Alex. "Hahaha! So you are just good at saving yourself and not your allies! Hmph, its your fault for being so weak! Now watch as I destroy this planet of yours for good!"
"….This guy is really a demon. He even likes giving monologues during a fight. Sigh, how cliché of him…" Alex thought, with him not acting worried about what was happening at all.
"If you want to blab about your win, then you should better do it later, once you are sure of it." Alex said, with his words being conveyed directly by Blue Alex. "You think you won because of your attacks? Look again. Look and see on what will happen from now on."
"Hm? Are you-"
Whatever retort Malthus was going to say was suddenly cut off, as out of nowhere, a scorching red beam descended from the skies, which hit Malthus' body directly.
Malthus was only able to let out a shout of surprise as the red beam blasted him away.
"Agh! Where did that come from?" Malthus exclaimed angrily as he forcefully stopped his blasted body. He was able to stop himself from sailing away by planting his feet on the ground, with him using the power of friction to bring his body into a standstill.
It took him a few seconds to succeed on this, and once he had stopped, he was already a hundred kilometers away from Alex.
That's a considerable distance, seeing that the red beam only inflicted small wounds on Malthus' skin. There were no major or fatal injuries that could be seen on him, with these surface wounds the only evidence of the red beam's power.
Malthuss hair was also slightly ruffled by that red beam, something which had been unaffected even when he was battling against Blue Alex earlier.
"Hoho, so this is the power of the latest technology of the Cosmic Guards. As long as their opponent is not a Half-Step Transcendent Being, the Cosmic Guards can give them a good fight." Alex thought merrily to himself, with him now looking at the massive spaceship that was just floating right beside the illusory planet.
Just like the illusory planet this massive spaceship was also as large as a planet, with its body decorated to the brim with extremely powerful weapons. All of these weapons were just as assorted like Malthus' weapons, with some of them too sophisticated that not even Alex can identify them.
One of these weapons was currently smoking at its end, with its body glowing red from excessive heating. Just by looking at its tip, which is pointed at the spot where the attack happened earlier, Alex was sure that this was the weapon used to blast Malthus by some distance away.
Alex shook his head as he saw these weapons, with his next words sounding less enthusiastic compared to before. "Sigh… if only the technology level of this universe can reach Transcendence, then the Cosmic Guards can start killing Transcendent level criminals. But having the power to fight anyone under Transcendence is already good."
"Of course their power right now is not yet enough to defeat Malthus, since this demon is near Half-Step Transcendence already. But with their weaponry, they will be enough to stall him." Alex thought enthusiastically, as the spaceship unleashed another attack on Malthus.
This time, what the spaceship used was a lightning-shaped metal hook, which produced a sonorous sound when it impacted against Malthus.
"Damn you!!!" Malthus cursed out as he was sent flying away once more. Just like the red beam earlier, the lightning-shaped hook did not heavily injure him, although it still sent him away.
"I'm sorry to say this Malthus, but you won't be able to make any attacks now that the Cosmic Guard is on to you." Alex thought as he and Blue Alex sniggered at the same time. "How could they just let you off, when their spy told them that an Outsider Demon has appeared here in the Four Moons World? Hehehe, that info alone was enough to make them rush here. So don't expect to be seeing me any sooner. Enjoy your time with the Cosmic Guard, and let's just meet later!"
***********************
"So the demon Malthus is now being attacked by that planet-sized spaceship. Alex must be the one who orchestrated this." Alina, who was holding Sierra's limp body in her hands, solemnly said as she watched Malthus get blasted away again by another attack.
There was slight satisfaction in her eyes as she observed Malthus' condition, something that Queen Mother shared.
"Alina, I think that's enough watching for now. Now that we are sure that Malthus will not be interrupting the possession, we should focus on the others that will be attacking here." Queen Mother said through the rustling of her leaves. "Right now, Sierra is unconscious due to her attempt on possession. This makes her body vulnerable to attack, so we should keep it safe at all costs…"
"Not only that, but we also have to protect Sierra's soul from being attacked by anyone." Alina added, with her eyes looking at the illusory planet with a protective glint.
At this point, around 5% of the illusory planet had fused with the Four Moons World. This means that there's still 95% of the illusory planet that had to be fused, a number which translates to basically a long amount of time.
"The matters of anyone attacking Sierra's physical body can be handled by me and Frances' monster army." Queen Mother calmly said. "As for you, you should deal with the ones that will attack Sierra's soul."
"Got it." Alina replied deftly. Her eyes then narrowed as she felt three presences rushing to their location.
She held her katana tightly for a second, although she also quickly let go of it when she recognized who the newcomers were.
"So Traveler Delia, why the hell are you and your obnoxious face here? Are you here to make a fool out of yourself? Because if it is, then I recommend you going to the circus. You will have more success there." Alina said towards Delia, who frowned from these rude words.
"Hmph, if it weren't for your partner, I would not even be trying to be close to a glutton like you." Delia replied, spitting words that were just as toxic as Alina's. "How could your partner even tolerate you? All you do every day is just eat and eat! What a useless slob!"
"You! You are just a snobby b***h that has the support of a hypocritical religion! Without them, you will just look like the typical bully! All talk, and no power!"
"Ha?! Say that to my face again, and I will show you who the better woman is!"
"Hmph, of course it's me! My eyes can see through all your falsehood, b**ch!"
"Ugh, what is my tongue tasting from you? Ugh… you taste… just like a rotten frog! My goodness, how can your allies stand your presence?"
"You!"
"…And there they go again. Why are these two always arguing when they see each other? They just act like they want to rip their throats!" Queen Mother thought glumly as she tried to not listen too much on the spat between the two women.
All that she can do is wait until these two are finished, as not even Alex was brave enough to stop two women from having a catfight.
"Sigh, Alina should know that Delia is our temporary ally now. Surely, Delia and her companions came here in order to assist us. But even with that, Alina still dares to insult Delia?" Queen Mother mused as her tree body trembled in clear dissatisfaction.
"Something… something is really wrong here…"
