Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World

Chapter 886: Primordial Badger

Horror Heaven.This realm was dark and broken, everything about it felt wrong.

For those who had been here before, this place would normally feel wrong for the right reasons.

This was literally the home ground of the Primordial Centipede and the embodiment of fear, of course it would make anyone feel a deep sense of wrongness.

The thick, dark veil seemed to pierce and permeate every corner of the void, accompanied by ghostly whispers and eerie clicks that resonated right beside the ears of all those present.

Everything here would make anyone, even the most powerful immortals, feel a little bit of discomfort at least that would make them not want to spend much time here.

But now, the type of wrongness that could be felt from the entire place was just a double-down version of what it meant to be wrong.

For fear to feel fear, there had to be levels of fear.

The thick veil of darkness and the shadowy sky and space were now corrupted by gigantic terrifying golden cracks that stretched from one horizon to the other.

What did it mean for the corruptible to be corrupted, this was what it looked like.

Who would have known that even darkness could look unclean and improper?

The fear that existed in this place now felt extremely wrong. The whispers that one would usually hear had turned into full-blown shrieks of agony and soul-wrenching pain.

Those clicks that would echo once in a while were now replaced with the sound of something sharp violently scratching against something else that was very hard.

It didn’t have to be said because anyone who had been to the Horror Heaven before could observe that something terrifying had happened here.

One of those individuals who had once visited Horror Heaven when it was in its former state was currently present in the Heavenly Realm.

With a beautiful and smooth blue skin, Wei casually flew through the dark space with her arms by her side and her legs put together.

Beside her were her Pride sisters, Alora and Chloe.

Chloe and Alora were busy having a discussion telepathically which Wei was supposed to be part of.

They kept on mentioning something about Primordial Sheep and Doves, and something about the power of faith, but Wei was not paying attention. At least, not yet.

Her mind was beholden to not-so-distant memories of her last time in this horrific place.

She remembered it like it had happened yesterday.

She and a lot of lionesses had travelled to the mortalverse on that fateful day in search of a Primordial to fulfill the requirements of the Consort Trial.

Unfortunately, that planet had been a trap used by the Primordial Centipede to draw them into his Horror Heaven where he picked them off one by one.

Whether he devoured them or simply ate the souls, no one knew at that time.

Wei had been the only survivor.

She remembered having to manually ignite her will so that she could stay bold and focused despite the heavy fear and dread that squeezed her heart.

It was an experience that weighed on her both physically and psychologically.

Now, she was back here as the Water Lion Avatar of the Law of Conquering. Rightfully, she had all the power needed to exact revenge.

Alas, there was no need for that.

As Wei looked around, she felt fear. But it wasn’t a fear born from the Law of Fear or from being in this place, it was fear that came about from knowledge.

Wei had not participated in the heaven-shaking slaughter that had happened here, but she had heard tales and the children had told her about it.

It...was epic.

It was glorious.

The lions, the kings, the royalty of the universe, proved their might and worth that day.

They stood their ground and defied that feeling of fear as though it had nothing on them.

The lions had been an unstoppable moving wall that cleared out all in its path.

The reason Wei felt fear was because of the cause of this event.

The All-King himself had no personal contribution in all this. At least, it was assumed that he did not take any personal action to conquer Horror Heaven.

No, all this was done and masterminded by Diane and N’bayé along with an unhealthy amount of Celestial Lions and Lionesses in the mix.

"...How many Vassals did they take along? Soamy died. I thought Horror Heaven was not that weak but it seemed it was just isolated."

Suddenly, some part of what Chloe was saying caught Wei’s attention.

"That Tardigrade race, the All-King said we should pay special attention to them and not let them out of our sight.

N’bayé used this opportunity to test them and it seems they are incredibly durable," Alora said coldly as her blue eyes flashed with curiosity.

The three of them turned into three streaks of light that blitzed through the dark void illuminated by distant golden cracks.

Alora’s white hair fluttered fantastically, she looked serious as her eyes focused on the distant group of large mega structures they were flying towards.

"We should send them to the front lines from now on," Wei, having recovered to her standard operating thought, decided to contribute to the discussion.

Chloe and Alora didn’t flinch at Wei’s suggestion. That she wanted to sentence them to a future of constant difficulty was not abnormal.

As long as it benefited the All-King and the lions, it was all right.

After thinking for a while, Alora shook her head, "No, that may just be a waste of valuable resources.

It would be better to sprinkle them into the mix of our other armies. Let them use their methods to ensure higher success rates for us.

The Primordial Tardigrade is not a difficult creature to reason with. He understands the use of his power and what it means for future utility."

Chloe nodded her head, "If any race should be sent to the front lines with their Primordial, it is those badgers."

At the mention of this name, Alora and Wei frowned at the same time. Chloe, who was not even looking at their faces, sensed the bad mood.

She continued to flap her two black wings, keeping up with the other two as they got closer and closer to their destination.

"I thought the elephants or the hyenas would be troublesome. I even thought that our lion race was the most troublesome out there.

I had not met the Badgers before that.

Now, I know better," Alora said, her words bleeding with painful truth.

Truly, she had suffered at the hands of the Badgers.

Not literally though. They had not fought, at least, they had not fought Alora and the consorts themselves.

But they were the most troublesome creatures the lions had ever faced.

"How can one creature be so annoying and not have self-preservation instincts but still survive for so long?" Wei asked.

According to what N’bayé had concluded when she herself observed the Badger race, they should not even be alive.

If not that they had never achieved a really high level status in the universe, they may have actually been wiped out.

Because they had never gotten that status before, they also managed to evade the attention of entities that would seriously try to eliminate them.

"Humph, so arrogant," Chloe said as she narrowed her eyes.

A pungent smell wafted into her nose as they closed in on the mega structures.

"Even when we said they should not come here, they still did and disobeyed my direct orders!" Alora’s voice suddenly went up and her eyes shone brightly with the power of an immortal.

"Alora, allow me!" Wei said as she flexed her fingers and increased her speed slightly.

Alora had merely nodded her head when Wei’s body burst out with invisible power. She blasted into the distance z covering thousands of kilometres in an instant as she transformed into a stream of pressurised water.

Over at the group of mega structures, one very large and exo-planet floated here with many artificial metal components sticking out of the sides.

The planet bustled with the roars of different beasts and reeked of the unnatural smell of burning centipedes.

"Get the fuck off my planet!" Shouted a short and angry-looking black-haired man with flaming orange eyes.

His black hair had streaks of white and the same pattern of black and white could be found on his bushy tail behind him.

"Your planet? Badger! Do you dare take what belongs to his holiness, the All-King?" Shouted another person, a female humanoid.

This woman was also short and had a head full of short white hair. She wore clean white religious robes and stood with her chest out as if she were ready to die to defend the words that came out of her mouth.

Sprouted from her back were six angelic white feathered wings that twitched and flapped in accordance with her spewing emotions.

Standing next to her was a man who wore a rather cheap set of clothes that looked like brown rags and grey sandals. He had six horns on his head and six eyes below his forehead.

Apart from an unnatural number of eyes and horns, he looked very ordinary and was even the calmest in the midst of all the spittle flying about.

"Who told you that the All-King was not the one who sent me here? Do you dare disobey the All-King?"

The short man with black and white hair who was clearly the Primordial Badger, raised his voice and returned the words back to his colleagues.

"Aargh! Why are you so annoying?" Said the six-winged woman as her eyes glowed with power.
