Novel Bin Chapter 98 Chronos
"You are going nowhere until you answer my questions." A primordial voice boomed out and sent shockwaves across the forest and, at the same time, forced Gaia\'s avatar to kneel before the figure.
Simultaneously, Blanca began to shiver in her spot as she could feel nothing but fear as the man stood before the two of them.
"L-Lord Chronos?" Gaia asked with a stutter.
"Did I not warn you? Did I not specifically ask you not directly to harm the human boy?" Chronos asked as the frown on his face became more profound.
"I didn\'t hurt him! I didn\'t even touch him-"
"But you were going to. If I didn\'t cut off your avatar\'s hand, you would have killed him on the spot." Chronos cut her off before narrowing his eyes at the woman besides Gaia.
"Why does it matter? He is already dead! Not even you can bring people back to life with your time powers. You\'re not a god!" Gaia complained, yet all she in reply was a slight smirk from Chronos\'s side before his expression returned to being stoic.
"Gaia... Heed my words; this is your final warning. The next time I see you trying to directly harm the human boy, I will not hesitate to penalize you on the spot no matter the outcome of the penalization on your plane-." Chronos paused mid-word while a slight frown formed on his face while his brows furrowed in annoyance.
His eyes immediately darted upwards before his eyes narrowed towards a figure shooting towards earth at a speed that could only be described as light-speed.
"There seems to be something I have to deal with. Remember my warnings, or do not blame me for what I do if you break the one rule I\'ve given you." Chronos took one last glance at Gaia and Blanca before space began to warp around him and eventually disappeared into thin air.

"What do you think you are doing?" Chronos\' voice boomed through the infinite void, shaking the very foundation of space and finally reaching the ears of the creature flying through space.
The creature suddenly halted its movement and looked to its right, where it could see a figure draped in a white and gold robe that fluttered in space despite the lack of air.
A golden aura emanated out of Chronos while his piercing gaze looked at the cosmic figure with narrowed eyes, analyzing every fiber of its being.
"Who are you?" The cosmic figure asked, not daring to move an inch in front of a being so much stronger than it.
Chronos\' brows furrowed once again, but after a few moments, he chose to answer the question.
"My name is Chronos... But that does not matter. Answer my question or do not blame me for becoming violent."
The cosmic figure shook a little when it heard Chronos\' voice, but after a moment of hesitation, it was capable of regaining its wits and finally looking at Chronos the same way it would look at an equal.
Chronos\' brow raised in amusement, but before he could say anything, the creature proudly stated- "I\'ve never heard of you. Bow down or get as far away as you can from me." Which only made Chronos\' amusement rise.
"Pfft..." Chronos could not stifle his laughter before his eyes darted around and saw nothing for hundreds of light-years.
"You act as if you have an army supporting you." Chronos stated, his amusement still eminent in his voice as he slowly raised a finger and pointed it towards the head of the cosmic figure.
"Hah! You would not dare lay a finger on a star spirit! Our monarch would decimate you where you stand, and your head would be his to decorate his trophy hall with. You might be strong, but you are nothing compared to him." The Star spirit boasted while letting out a mocking laugh, yet after hearing Chronos\' following words, his expression turned severely grim.
"Child, you do not know who you stand before due to your ignorance. I will as one more time, and if you do not answer, not even that monarch of yours will be able to save you."
In the same instant, Chronos released a speck of his aura that would be compared to a drop of water in the vast sea that was his real strength, yet to someone as weak as the star spirit, he found himself unable to move an inch as his life began to flash before his eyes.
"I-I felt a mortal trying to c-communicate with the stars, and when I felt it, I remembered our orders and left to end its life... I-I\'m sorry for my d-disrespect. P-Please forgive me." The star spirit pleaded while not daring to look up and into the eyes of the man that stood before him like an unmovable entity.
"I see... Now leave the other way, and if I ever feel you coming close to this part of space again, I will not hesitate to exterminate you where you stand." Chronos warned and disappeared the same way he appeared.
When the star spirit finally felt Chronos leave, it breathed a sigh of relief before a vicious expression appeared on its face.
"Do not worry... If I do come back, I will make sure to come with an army. I will decimate this portion of space and you will not have ability to stop me!" the star spirit roared and immediately shot back towards where it came from with its vow echoing through space.
Unbeknownst to it, a pair of golden eyes watched it leave while a wry smile broke out on the figure\'s expression as a few words left its mouth.
"Ezra... I hope when the time does come, you will have to power to fight back against this enemy because if you do not, it simply means that Earth\'s fate has been sealed from the get-go." Chronos spoke out as he sat idly on one of Saturn\'s moons before finally, he disappeared once again with no sign of his presence being left behind.
