Chapter 283 - For the Greater Good

Noah glanced at the figure of the powerful being he confirmed to be the genuine Celestial that should have been the one pulling the strings behind the past recent events as his heart shook from the words he heard.

He had chosen to scheme and follow the route of a helpful disciple to maybe gain even more trust among the beings in the Profound Astral Sect that held close connections with Celestials, but he never imagined his actions would provide an opportunity as tremendous as this!

Yes! This was a tremendous opportunity!

His biggest headache had been how to exactly go about facing such an immensely powerful organization that was proficient in mysterious techniques and held an enormous amount of power and influence over many worlds.

There were uber-powerful beings spread out all over that were a part of this organization, and he didn't come even close to matching their power. He saw very few possible paths to tackle this problem, but he never expected the most dangerous one, and the one filled with the most opportunity and chances of success, would actually land on his lap after his single action in the First Realm of h.e.l.l.

He gazed at the Celestial and the striking Athena beside him as he calmed his beating heart and replied slowly.

"What exactly is Sir proposing?"

The Celestial nodded his head as he waved his hands, causing a circular projection of light to appear between them as numerous details became apparent. The protection was littered with many stars as the Celestial pointed to the regions that held numerous blinking stars.

"The Universe is wide and vast, and can be looked at as an extremely wide area that holds billions of stars."

He pinched his fingers as the circular projection zoomed in until yet another region littered with golden glowing stars appeared.

"In this particular area, the Light Expanse of our Novus Galaxy stands stably and peacefully these past thousands of years due to the guidance that we, the Celestials, have continued to provide."

History and understanding of the stars they were around in that Noah only had a glimpse of knowledge of from the many memories he had devoured over these past weeks were easily released from the Celestial's mouth as he continued, this time pointing to a region below the section he called the Light Expanse of the Novus Galaxy.

"Down here lies the Dark Expanse, a place filled with lawlessness as a collection of stars under the banner of an unstable Alliance reside."

Noah's heart beat even faster as he heard the mention of the Alliance once again, something that the Vampyre Prince had mentioned briefly during their first encounter when he spoke about those that stood against the Celestials.

"And this..."

The Celestial's face became grim as he pointed to the last section in the projection of the Novus Galaxy.

"...Is the Letalis Expanse that is filled with danger and death, a region occupied by dredges of the past calling themselves the Ancient Races- beings of terrible power that continue to slumber towards their own deaths."

The last words released from the Celestial's mouth held a tinge of wrath as he waved his hands and caused the projection to fade away.

"The Celestials maintain Order and Balance in the Light Expanse, and work to protect against any threats that point their fangs in our direction."

His gaze landed on Noah once again as he looked at him with an unshakable gaze that seemed to only be waiting for a single answer.

"Will you join the organization that only exists for the greater good of our Novus Galaxy, for the greater good of the Universe?"

Elder s.p.a.cewarp had been looking at this exchange with stupefaction as he turned towards 'Crixus' and slapped him on the back to reign in his focus. Noah used this chance as he changed his expression to that of determination and spoke out.

"Yes!"

A nod was released from the Celestial as he waved his hands and caused the appearance of a large black crystal.

"This Void Crystal holds the directions and coordinates towards the 7th Celestial Star. You will be given a variety of missions in the near future, with your first one being your successful arrival to the 7th Celestial Star after you finish your duties in the Profound Astral Sect. You can use any means at your disposal to complete this mission. I look forward to observing and nurturing your talent closely in the future."

A golden light shone in the Celestial Grandmaster's eyes as it went on to cover his body and the body of Athena, their figures beginning to glow as they were about to disappear. Athena turned her striking gaze towards Noah as she said a few last words.

"Thank you for your aid earlier. See you soon."

BLINK!

A millisecond later, their figures were gone as only Elder s.p.a.cewarp and Noah were left behind in the void of s.p.a.ce.

Elder s.p.a.cewarp watched the dwindling golden circle that the Celestial Grandmaster had cast before as he quickly placed his hands on Noah's body, a purple protective circle with much less grandeur wrapping around them as he began to laugh raucously once again.

"Haha! A disciple of ours will be joining the ranks of Celestials soon enough, this trip held too many surprises!"

The Elder was extremely jovial as he seemed to already be imagining the wealth of resources and knowledge that their sect would be receiving from the Celestials as they would now have their own Disciple among them.

Noah, on the other hand, had thoughts that were too many to count as he absorbed the recent events as well as the clearance of information about the major players around him.

The Light Expanse that they were in.

The Dark Expanse that was under the control of an organization called the Alliance.

The Letalis Expanse where the Ancient Races resided.

All of this contained in the Novus Galaxy located on who knew where in the Universe.

In the midst of all of this, he, a being from a small blue planet located in an insignificant location in the Light Expanse- he was holding grand plans and designs for the future!
