"Wait!" Caelum screamed. "You would kill billions for our crime!? They’re innocents!"
Atticus didn’t look away.
"I will slaughter the entire world for my people."
The leaders paled.
"Wait! Wait! Don’t do this!" Neresa screamed. "They did nothing wrong! I’m the one who wants revenge on you! I alone went after your mother!"
"Then face the consequences. Their blood is on your hands."
"No!"
The meteor crashed down, and the Surnix world was consumed in an endless sea of fire.
Neresa stared at the sheer destruction with a trembling eyes.
"Y-you actually did it." Rehn gripped his hair in disbelief. Even the other leaders were equally horrified.
"You’re evil," Neresa murmured, pointing a shaking finger at Atticus.
"They were innocents! Innocents, and you killed them! You’re evil! You shouldn’t exist! You should be purged from the face of this—"
Atticus calmly blinked, and sound vanished from her mouth.
"So," he turned to the remaining leaders, "what about you?"
Multiple screens appeared before them, each showing a meteor descending toward their respective worlds.
"What will you choose?"
As they stared at him, they gulped. There was no bluff there. He would destroy their worlds if they refused.
"I-I’ll talk!"
"Rehn!" Mae snapped, glaring at the Velmiralth leader.
"What?! He’s going to destroy our world! Do you really want that!?"
"I—"
The Somnera leader’s words were cut off as Atticus waved his hand.
"Speak."
Rehn gulped, then nodded. Atticus’ eyes bored into him.
"We call them the Three..."
Seconds later, Atticus stopped the meteors from crashing into each world. Then he stripped the four leaders of their paragon powers. Though he hadn’t tried it before, this had been the perfect opportunity.
A paragon became one with theur power. All he did was order the world to reverse the process. They became grandmasters, in both body and mind.
Then he teleported them beneath the Vein Root Tree, where the temperature was boiling and gravity intense.
They squirmed across the ground, screaming in pain and clutching their heads.
Next, he visited the hill, where he embraced Anastasia tightly.
"I’m sorry about this, mom."
"It’s alright, baby. It’s not your fault." Anastasia gripped her son like she never wanted to let go.
"I just informed Dad and Grandpa. They’ll be here soon."
Atticus noticed the odd look in her eyes. He knew why but said nothing.
Even Lyanna, Sirius, and Nathan could only silently stare at him. They had seen the meteor crash from the hill. They knew what had happened, and it had made them gulp.
Ozeroth and Whisker appeared by him next. Though the former had seen everything that occurred and was currently fuming, the latter was still clueless.
Atticus had Ozeroth and the others explain to him while he vanished into the skies to think.
Rehn explained everything they knew to him, and Atticus had even gone the extra mile to enforce his will on him and read his mind.
Though he could have easily done this earlier, doing so without his permission would’ve driven him mad. It was mercy, considering the torture he had in mind for them.
’The three.’
This was the title they had given to the people responsible. According to his words and memories, the three single handedly planned everything that occurred today.
