This was the first time since his rebirth that Rudra felt like he was helpless and powerless. His mind falling into depravity as his senses went into overdrive.
He was not someone who lost his calm easily , and even at this moment his mind had clarity as to what it needed to do at the moment , however in the background it also kept thinking about the many unlikely scenarios that could happen should he arrive a moment too late.
Rudra did not even notice the carnage he had left in his wake, as he had killed countless humans at this point for real , that were people that would never wake up once more in the church of life again and had died forever now.
However he did not care about it at all , as his only focus was on getting to floor 32 as soon as possible.
Reaching the floor was supposed to be difficult with the sea of undead guarding it , however when Rudra came near the undead they immediately kneeled before him and made way to unblock his path , in a phenomenon that Rudra least expected.
He was covered in the aura of death as black fumes rose around him, but it was an unconsciouy activated passive skill and Rudra was not forcing himself to mentain it.
But little did he know that the aura of death around him made him a king level entity , which meant that these low level undead would most likely slaughter their master for him , much less not fight him.
With his path clear , Rudra rushed straight to the 32 floor at blinding speed , as when he reached there two men were guarding the entrance.
Before those men could even react to Rudra’s figure however, Rudra grabbed them by their necks and slammed them against the wall , crushing their necks with his bare hands to end their lives in an instant.
There was no sword , no fancy moves involved, just his mad speed and Raw power that killed the two men .
Taking a deep breath , Rudra went inside the biolab, his heart beating rapidly , anxious about the fate of his family.

( One minute ago , Nero)
Nero laughed at Rudra’s antics , everyone else might be afraid of the leader of the elites and may worship him as a deity but he did not.
He considered himself to be Rudra’s equal because once upon a time he was someone who shared the same platform as him as a teammate.
He only considered Rudra to be more privilaged than himself to have the backing of Ethan Grey to create such a large organisation and live as a king , but felt that as a solo player the two were on the same level.
Nero was barely level 280 , had barely ascended to tier 4 and was nowhere near Rudra’s strength, nor could he hold a candle to his accomplishments.
The Rudra that he considered an equal was already vastly superior to himself while the Rudra currently was incomparable.
But his mind was not ready to accept that he was an inferior player , it was always about the excuses like he had to play solo , that he had no backing and that he had no opportunities.
He felt like playing his class was more challenging than playing a knight and that the progress and accomplishments he had with his class were comparable to Rudra .
This was the reason why he did not take Rudra ‘s threat of ‘ You Dare ? ‘ to be serious , as he did not feel like he feared Rudra.
Moreover he had posted his undead on all the entry points leading to the 32 nd floor and should Rudra wish to reach here he must defeat them all , but with him being connected to the undead should even one of them die at Rudra’s hands he would be notified immediately to know that he was coming.
Enjoying his time , he looked at Mama Rajput and said ” It’s such a burden to have a husband in this new world …. I freed you , won’t you thank me? “.
” ***** ****!!!!!! ” Mama rajput cursed nero like she had never cursed before , her heart broken and her mind blanked out she had never hated someone as much as she hated Nero at this moment.
” Now that’s not a very nice thing to say , is it mama ? Ur quite pretty for your age , i might have taken you in as my concubine if you were not this vile tongued “. Nero said with a sadistic smile as he disgusted everyone in the room
Naomi who could not take it anymore stood up and said ” You’ve made a big mistake Nero, you don’t know my husband . He will make you pay for this ,you will beg for forgiveness at that moment , but there will be none, i will make sure there is none! “.
Nero turned his attention towards Naomi , as he tilted his head and chuckled ” No forgiveness , you say? “.
He walked towards Naomi with menacing steps as he prepared to use another darkness absorb.
Naomi backed up in panick , as mama rajput desperately tried to hold the monster back by grabbing his legs and biting on his feet.
But Nero was just annoyed by this as he kicked mama rajput away and kept walking towards Naomi , as he said ” Shakuni , shakuni , shakuni , the great man shakuni , the Number one player Shakuni , the so called hero of Japan! , let us see if our beloved hero-san can save his wife today!”.
Naomi hit the wall , there was no-where to back off anymore . She looked at nero wide eyed and in panic as fear and horror was evident inside them.
Nero bent over to touch her , as she closed them and accepted her fate , a tear escaping her eyes as she softly mumbled ‘ Rudra … ‘.
BAM!
At this very instant before Nero could ever lay a finger on Naomi, Rudra arrived at the scene and gave the guy a threatening German Suplex that broke not only his spine and neck , but also cracked his skull bone.
” DONT YOU DARE LAY A FINGER ON MY WIFE, PUNK! “. Rudra screamed in anger as he pummeled Nero with a rally of punches as he got ontop of him.
Shock , disbelief , horror were evident on Nero ‘s face. He had no idea how Rudra managed to bypass his undead and reach this place without detection.
His speed to traverse the 15 meter corridor from the door to this location was also so fast that he did not even notice someone sneaking up on him , while the strength on the German Suplex was strong enough to crush his cultivator bones!
As Nero summoned his undead , to counter Rudra pummeling him , mama rajput and Naomi breathed a sigh of relief to see that Rudra was here as they collectively screamed ‘ RUDRA! ‘
It was a scream of releif , as tears escaped both their eyes upon seeing that he had finally arrived.
However when nero summoned the undead , who popped out in the room like flies , the women and the doctors started to panic once more as Naomi shouted ” Rudra there are undead here! “.
Naomi hated the fact that she was not a cultivator now , because she could have used the dispell the dead spell if she was inside Omega right now.
However shockingly, no matter how much nero tried to make the undead to attack Rudra they would not budge from their locations at all as punch after punch , the shock on his face grew.
Had Rudra wanted he could have killed nero right then and there , but he did not , as he only broke his limbs in extremely painful fashion one after another.
” Aghhhhh ! AGHHHH! AGHHHHHHHHH! ” Screams, each louder than the last could be heard in the room as the doctors had to hide away from the brutality infront of their eyes.
Nero looked at the undead and wondered why they would not obey as he spoke in shock ” Why …. Why will you not obey? “.
However, when Rudra raised his hand , and every one of them kneeled at once , nero finally understood why.
Rudra was the boss here and he was just a puny necromancer, although he was the summoner of the undead he had no control over them.
Rudra was the pope of the church of death , and a mythic class the ‘ death knight ‘ by profession, although in Omega the advantage was not evident , in the real world it finally started to show.
Rudra was far higher in the food chain than Nero could ever imagine , as although even Rudra did not understand the true depths of his powers at the moment , should he wish , he was strong enough to even make nero obey his commands as a lesser necromancer should he wish to do so.
However, at this moment none of that mattered , as one after another nero felt his bones being snapped by Rudra ‘s raw strength, his mind blacked out with the shock of realising that he was not even strong enough to wield his own undead in Rudra ‘s presence , much less fight with the man on a level playing field.
It was only when Rudra heard mama rajput say ” Rudra ….. Mahendra….. ” That he stopped the beating.
Looking up to see the shrivelled body of his father , the first thing that Rudra noticed through his god’s eyes was , that his father was not actually dead…. Atleast not yet!
