Chapter 547: AARON’S ORIGIN ENTITY
The boy and his mother simply waited, expecting the strange insect to drop dead any second.
But their expectation never came.
Instead, the weird-looking "insect" flew straight toward them.
"Ahhhhh!!!!" both of them cried out, turning to run in blind panic.
"Just stay put for God’s sake!" Aqua shouted in frustration.
He had never felt such a strong urge to kill someone before.
Yet he held himself back until he could understand exactly what was happening in this universe.
Clicking his tongue in irritation, Aqua called upon his siren bloodline.
He began to sing a soft, enchanting song.
The melody wrapped around the mother and child like invisible chains, trapping them instantly in a powerful lullaby.
"Tch. Should have done this from the start," Aqua said, sounding tired.
Using the hypnosis of the song, he took full control of the duo and asked them specific questions about the universe.
He could only gather knowledge about their immediate world. Nothing about the wider universe.
The reason was simple: no human, as they called themselves, had ever been beyond their own atmosphere.
And above all, they had no idea they were colossal beings. To them, they were simply normal humans of ordinary height.
In this world, there was no power, at least none that anyone knew about. Only science and technology ruled everything.
The universe, or perhaps the multiverse Aqua had found himself in was the very same one Aaron had originally come from.
He could not be one hundred percent sure, but his conviction felt rock-solid.
Especially after realizing there was no trace of any supernatural power here.
"So you are not going to hurt us?" the young boy asked, his voice still carrying a hint of fear.
"No. I don’t plan to do that," Aqua replied, waving off the boy’s worry with a calm gesture.
After gathering all the information he needed, Aqua had already released the hypnosis. Of course, he made sure to keep them from screaming again.
"So what are you? A secret government experiment?" the boy pressed, eyes wide with curiosity.
"Nope. I’m someone from another universe entirely," Aqua explained truthfully.
"Wow. Another universe? That’s awesome!" the young boy exclaimed, his voice rising with pure excitement.
"Shhhh. Keep your voice down, Adrian," his mother scolded gently. "You don’t want to alert the neighbors."
"Anyways, I happen to be stuck in your universe for now," Aqua thought aloud. "But staying like this will draw way too much attention."
He transformed once more, shifting into a water titan form.
His size grew smoothly until he matched Adrian’s exact height.
He refused to look like a dwarf next to the boy, and he definitely did not want to raise any more suspicion.
Aqua also reshaped his face, making himself appear younger, like he belonged to the same age group as Adrian.
"I will be here for a while," Aqua said politely. "I hope you guys won’t mind accommodating me."
"Take your time," Adrian replied, his face lighting up with genuine happiness.
"My dad is hardly ever home, and we have plenty of free rooms."
Being alone all day had clearly been weighing on the boy. Finding someone new to talk to felt like a rare gift.
"Adrian, it’s time to go to school," Mrs. Celine informed her son. "It’s your first day."
"Mum. Can I not go to school today?" Adrian asked, giving her the biggest puppy eyes he could manage.
"Absolutely not."
"Then can Aqua come with me?" Adrian suggested brightly. "He’s a child too and needs to go to school."
"I’d rather not," Aqua refused instantly.
"Come on. It’s not a bad idea actually," Mrs. Celine said, warming up to her son’s idea.
"You will need to act normal if you want to stay undercover."
With no good way to argue against it, Aqua had no choice but to agree. He cursed his rotten luck under his breath.

The tournament had already begun in full force.
Far from what many had expected before arriving, Splitting Heaven dominated every single section of the competition.
The arena itself was breathtaking. Aaron had constructed it personally, and the result was beyond perfect, grand stands that stretched into the sky, flawless barriers pulsing with quiet power, and an atmosphere thick with anticipation.
Dignitaries from across the entire continent had shown up, including the Emperor himself, who sat right beside Aaron.
Within the tournament, one young girl shone brighter than anyone else, the same girl Aaron had saved not long ago.
"Hmm. That young child is very strong," the Emperor muttered, watching her flawless performance. "She has been nothing short of perfect the entire time."
"I know," Aaron replied calmly, taking a slow sip of the tea in front of him. "She is the best disciple in her sect."
"Even more so, since she is mine," the Emperor added with a sharp smile.
"But of course you already knew that, didn’t you?" he asked, turning to look at Aaron.
"I don’t," Aaron answered evenly. "As far as I know, she is a free girl allowed to make her own decisions however she wants."
"I heard you are very powerful," the Emperor continued, his tone growing heavier.
"Feared by every sect leader. But I am different from them. I have resources you should actually fear."
"You don’t say," Aaron muttered with a faint smile, still sipping his tea quietly.
"Messing with me will do you more harm than good, to be honest," the Emperor warned. "Let’s avoid that path.
Return her to me, and you can continue playing god. I won’t cross your path, and you won’t cross mine."
"You know, Emperor," Aaron said, rising slowly to his feet.
The tournament had finally ended. Splitting Heaven claimed total victory in the end.
"You made some grave mistakes," Aaron continued, his voice calm yet cold.
"The first was coming here with those demonic bastards. The second was trying to negotiate with me. I don’t do well with negotiations."
A small smile played on his lips as he stretched out his hand.
The Emperor looked confused.
Before he could even begin to understand what was happening, a man suddenly appeared, held tightly by the neck in Aaron’s grip.
"Let me show you what happens to someone who offends me," Aaron said coldly.
The main purpose of the tournament was finally beginning.
