3 months.

That's how long it took Max to completely get the destructive aura leaking from his body under control.

With a resilient mind and an unyielding will, Max managed to slowly discern the desires that were placed in his mind by the seed of destruction from the voice of his own consciousness.

Becoming immune to the seed's trickery, slowly but surely Max managed to get his mindset return back to normal as he was not overwhelmed with the constant desire to destroy things and beings around him.

However, while his mindset had stabilised it was a very narrow stabilisation and if anything major affected his emotional state then he could very easily be consumed by the seed's corruptive thoughts again.

He was in a weird position where he had managed to balance the forces wrestling for control in his brain, however, any slight change in this dynamic could very easily make it unbalanced again.

" Queen, Deactivate the barrier, I'm ready to walk back out" Max said with calmness as the queen accepted his command and released him from the shackles that held him after nearly four and a half months.

A lot had happened in these past four and a half months while he was not observing the universe.

Firstly, Kremeth was accepted by Sir Jhonny under his fold and was now a member of the True Elites guild's Black ops division.

The trip with Max really made a big impact in his life as his mindset changed for the better and Sir Jhonny found that change favourable enough to give him a second chance.

Had Max been observing his sons training, he would have probably bled tears of blood as the training that Sir Jhonny subjected Kremeth to was too painful for any man.

Boulders were connected to his man parts via a rope and he was forced to drag them to strengthen his manhood.

Everyday, Sir Jhonny subjugated him to [ Ball Crusher ] as according to Sir Jhonny, only by experiencing pain and understanding the core of an attack could one truly master it.

Hence although Kremeth learnt the most infamous move in the universe, he did so after suffering hell on radiance.

His training at the elites guild was completely unlike anything he could have ever imagined, as life there was much harder compared to the palace.

If it was the old Kremeth, he would have folded and ran back home after being subjected to such inhumane training, however, the new Kremeth had grit and tenacity to see these hard times through to the end since his desire to get stronger far surpassed the pain he suffered.

Secondly, Mira had finally been crowned as the next Dragon Queen as she headed back to Draconia alongside their daughter.

She was now a tier8 and Rhea missed her grandchild to death.

The timing was ripe for her to take up the mantle as the dragon queen and hence the responsibility had been officially passed down to her.

It was apparently a grand affair where all the monarch's and all of Max's family attended, however, since he was in seclusion Max was unable to attend.

Usually, the Supreme Lord not attending such an event would give rise to rumours and speculation, however, the current position of the Rajput family was so strong that rumours could not touch them.

Mira was the Dragon Queen, Anna was the Elf king's daughter while Hazriel was a tier8 monarch herself.

If one added the Queen and Drax to the equation then the strength within the Rajput Capital not counting Max himself was already too much for the universe to handle, which was why even though he was not present nobody dared to imagine anything.

Finally and probably most importantly, Odin had came by and informed the queen that the Perfect Warrior had suffered a HUGE Karmic Backlash, one that put Odin to sleep for over a month even though he was not directly related.

A karmic backlash of such a scale could only be experienced, if the perfect warrior had directly interfered with the universe and hence Odin came to the Rajput Capital to let Max know that he should be on his guard.

As of yet, the queen had not noticed anything out of the ordinary. The seed of creation was safely within the queen's protection and as per her knowledge there were no major irregularities within the universe.

However, once Max came out of his isolation and received this message he could not help but feel anxious as to what the perfect warrior might be planning?

Him meddling with the universe could never be a good thing, but what exactly did he do?

********

( Rudra's POV )

Rudra never imagined that the perfect warrior would ever fight like a coward, however, for the past one month he was dodging challengers left and right for some reason.

His HP bar was permanently set at 50% it's total capacity and he looked sickly and weak.

It was as if someone had sapped the soul out of his body and the celestials who sensed his weakness hounded him like sharks who had just smelled blood.

Relentless challenges were made as one after another all thirteen celestials kept trying their luck to beat the perfect warrior or atleast weaken him as much as possible.

There was no doubt about the fact that he was suffering from a severe karmic backlash and was in a precarious position because of it. However, the infuriating part about it was that because he was weaker he fought like a slimy coward that was impossible to hit.

The first time when he was weaker and within Rudra's range to be beat, the bastard was swarmed with so many challengers that Rudra never got a chance.

He would purposefully not attack and elongate a single battle for days just so that it would give him some additional time to recover.

By the time Rudra's chance came, he was back to 80% of his health and much of his cockiness, however, that 20% weakness was still visible as for the first time ever Rudra felt like he was fighting an opponent within his calibre and was able to trade actual blows with him.

The perfect warrior's crisis was an unexpected opportunity, however, the cursed fate did not allow Rudra to fight him when he was at his weakest, but rather when he had significantly recovered as in the end Rudra fell just short of beating him as the perfect warrior survived the battle against him with a mere 12% total HP bar.
