"The space gap..."

There was a dimension here and there was a monster guarding the space between this world and that world.

The book in Souta's hand was used to sense that world. All the things that he wanted were in that world.

But before that, he should finish the guardian.

Roar!!

A deafening roar echoed coming from the white light. The giant tentacles landed and grabbed the palace. Then, a huge head came out of the white light.

This monster was a kraken, a powerful fourth stage monster.

"Who dared to open the gate?!"

Its powerful voice spread out. Everyone inside the city heard the voice of the kraken.

The merfolks were scared. They stared at the gigantic sea monsters with wide eyes. They were in disbelief as kraken was a legendary creature that their ancestor spoke of.

"K-Kraken...?!!"

"The monster from the book?!!"

It was recorded in their books that there was once a powerful monster called creature that ruled the Devil Sea.

The merfolks could fight this sea monster but they were caught off guard at this moment. Also, if they wanted to subjugate this monster they had to sacrifice a lot. What's worse was that the kraken was in their territory.

Thousands of ordinary merfolks would die if a battle occurred here.

"It's me,"

Souta said as he slowly floated towards the gigantic head of the sea monster. His voice traveled and the infamous kraken noticed his appearance.

He was unfazed.

"Do you want to stop me or not? If you block my way then I will be forced to kill you." Souta said while staring at the kraken.

"I've made an oath in the past. No one will be able to remove me here. I will be guarding this place for the rest of my life." The kraken answered calmly. "You are powerful but we are in the sea... A creature like me is stronger in this environment."

"Sorry but... I need you to get out of my way. I will end it in an instant." Souta's expression turned cold. The atmosphere had changed and the aura around his body soared.

Swoosh!

Souta raised his sword and swiftly moved his body.

"You can't-" The kraken wanted to say something but it stopped midway. Souta already disappeared from his body.

He was standing beside the kraken. His appearance was huge and there was black armor around his body. His weapon was emitting a fierce crimson light.

"Ugh... You..." The kraken moved its eyes and stared at Souta.

Souta exhaled as his body turned back to normal. The black armor turned into blood and the aura around him slowly disappeared.

"Sleep for eternity..."

Bang!!

The gigantic body of the kraken exploded into tiny pieces. It was cut hundreds of times. Pieces of flesh and blood rain down across the entire city of merfolk, dyeing the whole land in red.

The legendary monster was gone just like that.

"An initial stage fourth stage shouldn't try to fight me."

Souta muttered before placing the vajra sword in its sheath.

A lot of conscious merfolk felt a chill on their spine. The legendary kraken was killed just like that. They couldn't even see the attack that Souta made. They only felt a burst of powerful energy and that's it. The kraken was slain as if cutting some grass.

Souta ignored the gazes of the merfolks. He floated above and entered the white light around the dome.

Only Souta himself knew that he simply surprised the kraken. In that split second, he activated his second mode, [Blood Armor], and released form to kill the kraken.

In base stats alone, Souta was already league above that sea monster. He couldn't one-hit kill his opponent with his base form but it was possible if he used his second mode, [Blood Armor], and released form.

It was a simple swing of his sword and it already took the life of his opponent.

Even if the kraken activated his release form, Souta would still be able to kill him with that attack. He already calculated it in case his opponent managed to react to strengthen its defense.

Souta arrived beyond the white light.

This place was a space gap.

The pressure in this place was stronger in outer space. He was sure that it would crush anyone below A-rank.

This place was empty.

It was just an endless space without any objects.

"Hmm... Where is it?"

Souta poured a little bit of energy into the book once again. The book emitted a dim light and he felt a strange connection to an unknown place.

He stared above at a certain location inside the space gap.

"So it's there."

He flew at high speed and easily traveled several dozens of kilometers. Then, he pulled out his sword.

[Crimson Moon]!!

His body erupted a powerful energy and his elemental energy even burst out.

"Break!"

The crimson energy blade shattered the space. A huge slash appeared and it spread widely in the space gap.

Crack!

It exploded and turned into a giant circle that seemed to bend everything around it.

Beyond it was a small world. Of course, it wasn't small as it also contained infinite space. The reason why it was called small was because of the concepts and energy there. It was weak.

It couldn't be compared to any of the so-called "High-world" planets in Mother space.

Ohm!

Souta stared at it.

At this moment, he heard a familiar voice in his mind.

'Souta...?'

It was Saya.

"Saya, you're awake..." Souta said with a smile as he looked at the sword in his hand.

'Yeah... I'm still weak but I could maintain my consciousness right now.' Saya answered. 'By the way, that's a boundary world right there. What are you doing here?'

"Boundary world?" Souta raised his eyebrows.

'Yes, a boundary world also called as boundary verse.' Saya said. 'Have you perhaps heard about the terms particle, region, palace, boundary, outworld, and beyond?'

Souta shook his head.

'The concepts and laws there are different but it is far weaker than Imperium. Particle world is a small universe while region is a bigger verse that contained countless particle worlds. It's called bigger since the concepts and laws there are much stronger than particle worlds.' Saya slowly explained. 'Then, there's a palace which contained countless region worlds.'

'The thing in front of you... You shattered the space, right? So you've opened the space to this boundary. A boundary contained countless palace worlds.' Saya said.

"Yeah, I shattered the space." Souta nodded. He recalled information from his memories. Saya's description was right.

In his memory, inside that shattered space was a world that contained weak worlds.

So that's what they are called.

He never knew what they were called up until now. He just called them small worlds. Well, other people also called them small worlds so he just copy them.

'A boundary should be able to endure your level. If it's a palace world, it will not be able to handle your existence. It will collapse once you enter it. So if you want to avoid destruction, try to retract your aura since you can easily destroy the palace worlds in that boundary. Well, it's not that every boundary has living beings. Sometimes it is just a desolate space.'

"I'll go now. The space crack will heal soon." Souta said before he flew inside.

Without the book, he would have a hard time finding this boundary world. He would have to shatter all the space around him one by one just to find it.

Five thousand meters below the sea surface...

Eilish had already finished dealing with hundreds of third-stage monsters.

"Even though they are weak, their numbers made it hard for me to fight."

Her breathing was a little heavy, indicating that the fight wasn't easy. She didn't suffer any injuries from the battle. She only had bruises around her body. Still, the hundreds of third stage monsters forced her to use her full power.

She wasn't Souta that had [Serpent Dominance] which could weaken all the beings weaker than her.

"Is that all...?"

Eilish looked around, only to see the corpses of the sea monsters. She heightened her senses. When she found that there was no one around her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I consumed almost half of my mana so I need to rest to recover my energy."

She just bombarded the whole area with various spells to defeat all of her opponents. She lost count of how many spells she cast in this short amount of time.

"Souta, what is he doing right now?"

Eilish slowly descended to the depths of the sea.

...

Souta arrived in the boundless space. He observed his surrounding and noticed that the fabric of space was weak. He could easily rip it apart.

Well, for people of this world, the fabric of space was tough. Their perspective was different from Souta who was used to Imperium's concept and law.

"Let me start it,"

Souta smiled and his energy swept around in every direction, scanning everything in sight.
