Chapter 1097: Chapter 1097: So Much For A New Adventurer Arc



"Bludgreyps, get your bludgreyps here!"

"Why are we stopping here, Miss Pepondosovich?"

"What do you mean why are we stopping here!? We've been traveling in hyperspeed for months, Riri. Months! We may never actually see another actual planet with living beings in it!"

Somewhere in the Sole Remaining Universe, far far away from Hannah and the others, Riley and Miss Pepondosovich found themselves in one of the many remnants of the multiverse - although, they were not really sure if there were many more remnants such as this one at all.

"Do you think these people are real or created by this Paige person?"

After traveling for months on end - with seeing nothing but the dead space, Riley and Miss Pepondosovich were finally able to land on an actually habitable planet with a proper civilization in it.

"I do not know, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head.

"Seeing as the technology in this place isn't that great, I think they chose to abandon it sometime in the past 600 years, you think?" Miss Pepondosovich looked at the scenery around them, and there truly was not even a single sign of advanced, or even modern technology. Everyone was just walking and selling things on the side of the street; some, riding horses that looked like seahorses but on land,

"Probably to avoid being detected by anything or anyone."

"Perhaps the wiser choice during the time of war," Riley nodded.

"Hm. I did read about this and even talked to Diana about it," Miss Pepondosovich nodded a couple of times; ignoring the fact that everyone kept staring at them since they looked completely different from the others- some of them were even closing their shops and running as soon as they catch a glimpse of either Riley or her,

"Since everyone just scattered when those stupid gods decided to wreak havoc, it wasn't really possible to bring refuge to everyone or recover them," Miss Pepondosovich let out a small sigh as she placed her hands on the back of her head, "Who knows, there might still actually probably billions and billions more out there...

...sometimes with the talk of multiverses, Outerverse, or different domains, we forget just how big one universe could actually be - you know?"

"I have never forgotten how big one universe could actually be, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head as he approached one of the stalls, "That is why we even have a name for it - The Unknown."

"The Unknown, huh... sounds ominous," Miss Pepondosovich shrugged, "Anyway, what are we trying to search for again...? We are trying to search for something, right?"

"Yes," Riley nodded, "We are trying to search for Nothing."

"Uh... huh. That dude who talks to you whenever you die? That's so weird, by the way."

"It is," Riley then grabbed what looked like an apple from the stall and handed it to the vendor, "There might even be completely different species out there that are more special than the themarians, the evaniels, or perhaps even me."

"Oho...? And here I thought you thought that you are the center of the universe?" Miss Pepondosovich smirked, "This is, as you mentioned a lot of times, your story and the rest of us are just living in it."

"I did say that." But alas, as soon as the vendor saw Riley, he just quickly let out a small squeal before closing his stall and running away,

"But my story is over, Miss Pepondosovich - I am stepping to the sidelines. That is why we are here, about to venture out into the Unknown."

"Huh... anyway, don't you have a feeling that these people are avoiding us?" Miss Pepondosovich then turned around to look at the once lively street of wood and brick, only to see it completely devoid of any people now.

"I think they are scared of you, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shrugged, "These people look mostly similar to Earth's humans, I blend in with them. But you..."

"What?" Miss Pepondosovich looked up at Riley, her long bunny ears bouncing as she did so, "Just because I'm only as tall as your knee and have long cute ears, doesn't mean I'm that much different! You-"

And before Miss Pepondosovich could continue with her rant, a loud ring echoed throughout the now quiet street. Miss Pepondosovich looked around for a few moments before realizing that the ringing was coming from her backpack.

guys said Hi.]

"Sure."

[Oh and, Riley... I miss you,] Katrina smiled, [And you too, Miss Pepondosovich. Enel's been trying to find you. And... he's mentioning something about a snowcone or something lately. Ah! Anyway, I'm saying too much. I need to go. Miss Pepondosovich... please take care of

Riley, okay?]

"You don't have to ask me twice," Miss Pepondosovich scoffed as she glanced at Riley, almost gesturing to him that she was the boss this time, "Take care, Kat!"

[Okay, bye-bye!]

"So... what are you thinking, Riri!?" Miss Pepondosovich returned the phone to her bag before

stretching her arms to the side and hopping, "What do you think about our first stop in our

otherwise, probably eternal adventure!?"

"I suppose it is okay, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shrugged as he looked around.

"Oh, don't be like that. We can just stay here for a few weeks or so and-"

"!!!!"

And before Miss Pepondosovich could finish her words, a large explosion just suddenly

erupted... everywhere.

"What the-!?" Miss Pepondosovich quickly grabbed the bag and floated toward Riley,

making sure the two of them were not separated during the explosion - because it was loud

and strong, extremely so.

But finally, after what seemed like several minutes, all the explosions died down and

everything once again became calm.

Unfortunately, too calm...

...as the entire planet was gone.

"What... what just happened!?"

And there, in the distance, Riley and Miss Pepondosovich could see a large ship - most

probably the thing that destroyed the planet.

[By the Order of Nothing, this planet is hereby terminated.]

"No... No... Our normal fun adventure!"
