Once the dust settled around Rudra becoming the new ruler of the universe, Max had to return his focus on the commitment that he had made at the vampire council to take on Ulrich and the werewolves for the vampire counteroffensive.

However, before he did that there was one peculiar matter that kept bothering him.

At Rudra's Intellectual discussion, Drax felt the presence of an ancient god who was responsible for the death of God Agni many years ago.

It was safe to assume that this being was extremely powerful and at least tier8 in strength, yet this individual carefully chose to not expose himself during the meeting, nor did he sit with the other monarchs on the table like Dracula and Memphidos did.

Had his disguise been just to fool the masses, Max could accept his own failure in detecting the guy, however, before leaving the Rajput mansion, Max asked his brother if there were any hidden monarchs standing amongst the crowd and even Rudra said that there were none.

It was impossible for one to hide their identity from Rudra's Omniscient eyes as he could even see through Odin's disguise, yet just to be double sure Rudra checked with the queen if there was such an individual hiding within the crowd to which even the universal queen affirmed that there was none.

This put Max in a tough spot because if the killer of Agni was present within the room yet not a monarch then it gave rise to more questions than answers.

Maybe Drax had made a mistake in feeling his presence?

Maybe just like Kremeth and Khnum in their old age that individual had also regressed from his peak strength and slipped into lower realms.

Or maybe the methods of the man had become so elusive that not even the queen and his brother could detect him.

Nonetheless, his appearance within the intellectual discussion was the only lead that Max had to discovering his identity and whereabouts and he could not let it go to waste.

For Drax and his promise that he made to the old A.I. he needed to keep digging for the truth and expend resources to get to the bottom of the matter even if he simultaneously worked on other projects for the time being.

*************

( Meanwhile on a distant hidden planet )

On a distant planet, outside the queen controlled universe, a planet covered by anti-detection runes floated in anonymity.

With its position changing constantly as it traversed through the ever changing space, it was near impossible to locate for everyone except those who Brahma wished to invite to his abode.

When describing a planet, one never used adjectives like ' Clean ' or ' Organised ' ; however, it was exactly what Brahma's planet looked like-

He lived on a planet where every last strand of grass grew perfectly parallel to one another at 90° and everything had perfect symmetry.

Whether it be the clouds, the trees, the swamp or even the sea, everything looked perfectly neat and organised.

Brahma was a firm believer that cluttered surroundings led to cluttered thoughts and hence strived to keep his surroundings perfectly orderly, however, if a normal individual were to arrive at his planet he would soon be driven crazy from all the perfection around him.

In the entire universe there was only one individual that even Odin did not dare manipulate and that individual was Brahma.

His title given by the celestials was ' The God Of Knowledge ' and he was the previous inheritor of the seed of knowledge.

Once upon a time, he was arguably the strongest god in the universe and had the potential to ascend to celestial hood at any instance that he wished to having already killed a celestial and obtained a celestial core as a mortal.

Nonetheless, he too got cursed by the power of the seed of knowledge just like every other seed user did from extensive use and momentarily lost his decisiveness to make decisions.

Buried in the sea of knowledge that he once thirsted to obtain, he became unable to function like he once did when his brain became cluttered with too much information.

His pride blinded him into believing that he could handle more and more knowledge, until one day it became too much and turned him into a near vegetable state.

For thousands of years, he remained in a near comatose state forgotten by the history books, floating aimlessly in his ever-shifting planet, until slowly his brain evolved and became capable of processing all the knowledge that he had collected.

The first action that he took upon regaining consciousness was to carve out the seed of knowledge in his body and throw it out of his planet into the wide cosmos as he slowly recovered his strength thereby.

Becoming a god with an intelligent stat that surpassed the tier8 limits, he became a pseudo-celestial with a tier9 mind and a tier8 body.

His first visit to the controlled universe after millennia was because he intended to gauge his opponent in Rudra and collect information on his weaknesses.

Possessing knowledge about the perfect warrior and the difficulty in taking him down, Brahma believed that ascending to tier9 with one celestial core was not enough.

Wanting to become a unique celestial with two cores, he wished to become someone who went even beyond the perfect warrior and for that he thirsted for the queen's core in Rudra's possession.

Even as he stood amongst the crowd of god's in front of Rudra's Omniscient eyes, neither him nor the queen could detect his presence as such was the prowess of his concealing techniques.

Unfortunately for Max, Drax's foe was indeed present at the intellectual discussion and his assumption that his prowess surpassed common sense was indeed the right assumption.

( Present day )

" It's been a while…. Old friend, " Odin said as he stepped onto Brahma's elusive planet with awe etched all over his face.

" Indeed " Brahma acknowledged as he opened his divine golden eyes while being seated in a meditative posture on a lotus exuding a pressure that brought even Odin to his knees.
