Ethan stood up slowly inside his inner dimension.
The two cocoons beside him pulsed softly, like sleeping beasts breathing in rhythm. Nini was still sealed inside shifting chaos, and the World Tree was wrapped in its crystal shell, silent and powerful.
Ethan did not rush them.
Power like that could not be forced.
He exhaled, then laughed quietly.
"Hahaha… fine. Grow properly. I'll hunt meanwhile."
His main goal had never changed.
Power.
Bloodlines.
Authority.
And in the end, the Throne of Destiny of this eternal domain.
Everything else was noise.
Ethan stepped out of his inner world, his form returning to the real battlefield. The gray dust had already settled. Nothing remained except cracked land and broken laws.
He looked toward the edge of reality.
"That fit earlier would have caused a nexus event for sure," he muttered. "If I didn't use the Ultimate Domain, half the higher realms would already be staring at me."
He scratched his chin and laughed.
