891 Chapter 891: The best defence

Ryder didn't react sharply to Karyk's words, but he could see the threat hidden within. The young boy was warning him.

"I had no intention of harming them." After a brief pause, he finally spoke. "I saw them standing outside, and invited them inside. If I had any intention of harming them, then excluding one, all of them would've been dead by now."

"If you want to take my hospitality in a negative way, then you are free to do so," he added, his voice calm yet heavy.

As he finished speaking, he waved his hand. Multiple seats materialized in the hall, creating a place for Karyk and the others to sit.

"I believe it was also a misunderstanding. We are on the same side, so no point in getting angry." Aliac also interfered, seeing Ryder trying to take a step back.

He had truly thought that the two of them might go crazy and fight, but fortunately, both of them were pretty calm... If it could be called that.

He knew the reality was that none of them wanted to fight in this place. Both their families were in the same mansion. If a fight ensued, both of them could lose their loved ones.

Both of them had seen the loved ones on the other side, creating a fragile balance.

To give Karyk slight push, Aliac tried to calm the atmosphere. He was the first to take a seat, pulling Karyk with him.

"That reminds me... You still didn't answer how you are back so soon? Did you face some danger there? What is the situation on the other side?"

Aliac further changed the topic and asked Karyk why he was back so fast.

"Since you're here, I suppose it's less about dangers on the other side and more about some information that you have gathered?"

In this world, he could definitely keep gathering his spiritual energy. But the problem was that his life wasn't the only thing that was at stake.

He couldn't protect everyone with just his own strength. His eyes couldn't help but glance at Zena and the others for a brief moment. He could win, but all of them might die.

Millions of worlds might be destroyed if the Elzeirans were allowed to enter this place. They might win, not only a few of them could survive.

That wasn't even the main problem. There were also the Archangels above the Elzeirans, about whom Karyk had limited knowledge.

He knew that the Elzeirans had something to do with the Archangels. Even if they won against the Elzeirans, he wasn't sure if the Archangels could send more Elzeirans. This war was something that could last for an eternity, until nothing was left but death.

"Why do I feel like you're implying that we should..." Aliac frowned, feeling as if Karyk was hinting at something.

"If we want to save those precious to us, we have only one choice... We need to enter Elzeira. We need to take this war to them before they can bring it to us," Karyk exclaimed. "In this situation, the best defense would be a good offense."

"I would've loved to do that as well, but the continent of Elzeira is strange. When we are there, we can't gather the Spiritual Energy that we end up spending," Aliac stated.

They were back to square one. The problem was still the same. If they stayed here, they could fight freely but they might lose everything.

If they fought in Elzeira, they could minimize the losses to their universe but they couldn't fight freely.

"The biggest problem is the elements of that world. They aren't suitable for us," Ryder also agreed with Aliac.

"What is your solution for that?" he asked Karyk.
