Chapter 1030: Ulric
[Planet Sidra – Lord Sidra Luda IV]
Planet Sidra is a powerful world ruled by a Demigod. It can be found in the Metrack Star System. In fact, in all of the Metrack Star System, Planet Sidra can be counted among the top 10 strongest.
This is due to the powerhouses on that planet.
Compared to Earth in terms of size, it is 40 times larger, with gravity 12 times stronger than that of Earth. This gravity makes them several times stronger than most beings from other worlds.
Naturally, as beings of the Metal Demons lineage, they are built tall and strong.
The average height on Planet Sidra is 8 feet.
Lord Sidra is the ruler of this world and one of the most powerful Demigods in the Metrack Star System.
Lord Sidra has several disciples under his name. However, when it comes to recognized disciples, he has only 15, with the strongest among them sitting at the Peak of the Immortal Lord stage, just a step from reaching the Demigod stage.
His disciples are recognized as powerhouses in the Metrack Star System and are widely respected by everyone on Planet Sidra.
The Unija Planetary System is one of the many planetary systems in the Metrack System. Planet Scar is located in the Unija Planetary System.
Five days ago, a messenger from Planet Scar arrived on Planet Sidra with a report from the ruler of that world, a Peak Immortal Monarch.
The message was received by the butler, who handles the affairs of Lord Sidra. Naturally, this butler holds so much power that his words, to some extent, can be taken as Lord Sidra’s words.
Aside from the first five disciples of Lord Sidra, the remaining disciples must show him respect when he is present.
After listening to what the messenger said, he sent him away, and five days later, he met with Lord Sidra, who was away on business.
Lord Sidra is a terrifying-looking man. He has long red hair, red eyes, and a thick cut on his left cheek that seems to contain red molten lava.
His body is covered in metallic armor forged from some of the strongest metals in the universe. He was seated on a large throne.
The butler went on his knees when he entered the room.
“My lord, I have an urgent message from one of our affiliate worlds.”
“Speak,” Lord Sidra said, and the butler nodded.
“The message was that a planet affiliated with Planet Scar has issued a black mission, with one of the rewards being the Red Blood Law Stone. From what they managed to pick up, the Red Blood Law Stone is a medium-grade one.
Although not a High grade, I know the Lord has been searching for the Red Blood Law Stone to help the young lady.
Years ago, I alerted all worlds affiliated with us to keep searching, and now, it has been found.”
“Deploy immortals to go retrieve it.”
The butler scratched his head. “There is a problem, my Lord.”
“What?” A frown appeared on Lord Sidra’s face.
“The world with the Blood Stone is an outer world. This means everyone above the Life Stage can’t go.”
“Then send Ulric. Tell him to come see me before leaving.” The butler nodded and walked away.
After leaving, the butler made his way toward the training area of the 15th Disciple. It took him 2 hours, even with his Immortal Monarch speed.
From afar, a powerful fluctuation could be heard in the distance. Upon drawing near, his eyes fell on a young man who stood at a height of over 9 feet. He had short dark hair and handsome facial features.
His armor was black with metallic projectiles hovering behind him, acting as wings.
He held a large sword in his hand, sweat lining his face.
Standing opposite him was a metallic combat android made from very powerful and durable metal. It had the cultivation base of a Monarch, two whole stages above that of the young man.
However, looking at the faint cuts on the android, one could tell that the young man was going toe-to-toe with the android and, to some extent, even winning.
Upon noticing the presence of the butler, the young man, who was the 15th disciple of Lord Sidra, put away his sword and put on a smile.
“Senior Blaze, I hope I am not in any trouble seeing you personally come to my training ground,” Ulric asked in a slightly funny tone.
The butler just smirked and landed on the ground. He studied the android for a few minutes before turning to Ulric.
He tossed a small device to Ulric. “The Lord has a mission for you.”
Ulric’s face brightened when he heard the words come from the butler’s mouth.
“What mission does the master have for me?” he promptly asked.
“Inside the device is a map to a planet several light-years from here. It will take you close to 55 days to get there. The master wants you to use any means necessary to retrieve an item called Red Blood Law Stone.
Failure is not an option, so even if you have to destroy the planet, do it, but return with the Blood Law Stone.”
“Rest assured, Senior Blaze, I will get the job done.” Ulric looked at the map and memorized the star coordinates.
“The Lord wants to see you before you leave.” Ulric nodded and then flew away to prepare. Three hours later, he was kneeling before his master.
“Ulric, I took you in 300 years ago when I witnessed you fight three realms above you. I knew then that you had the potential to reach higher heights, and so I chose you to become one of my True Disciples.
This is your second mission in the 300 years you’ve been my disciple. This mission is important, so you must get it done.”
The Lord waved his hand, and three orbs flew toward Ulric. He caught them.
“These three are Class A combat androids. Their strength is not anywhere lower than yours. Use them to accomplish the task.”
He waved his hand again, and a badge flew toward Ulric. “This badge has authority comparable to a Planetary System Lord. Use it to move unrestricted. Now go and get the job done.”
Ulric nodded and left.
Once he was gone, the Lord vanished and appeared over Planet Sidra. It had a large ring around it.
A few minutes later, a spaceship left Planet Sidra and soon entered the Dark Universe, traveling several light-years per hour.
“Ulric, this is a trial for you to see if you can realize your potential. The charted star map to that planet will be full of obstacles.
If you manage to get the job done, I will personally take you to the Ancestral Channel and help you absorb the second half of the Blood Essence from the Ancient Titan Race.
In 300 years, the Ancient Path to the last known chunk of the Primordial Era will open. I want you to be prepared to enter and explore opportunities.
Also, now that signs show the Paragon has awakened, you must be ready to join the youngsters who will use this chance to make a name for themselves.
“You have potential, and as your master, it is only right to help you realize that.”
After a while, Lord Sidra went back to the planet.
