Cosmic Ruler - Chapter 483
Chapter 483: Fate III
Their face was absent—only a smooth, featureless void resided beneath the hood.
But Aiden could feel them watching him.
“A trespasser against the Loom.”
The voice wasn’t spoken—it was imprinted directly into Aiden’s soul, like an edict from the heavens.
Aiden’s grip on the Codex tightened. “And who exactly are you supposed to be?”
Another figure stepped through the fracture.
This one was different.
A woman, clad in pristine white robes that shimmered like starlight. Unlike the first, her face was visible—but her eyes were missing.
Hollow sockets, brimming with shifting golden threads.
“One who Sees. One who Judges.”
Her voice was smoother, colder.
The first figure raised a hand. The air warped, and the pressure in the room skyrocketed.
Aiden’s body was forced downward. His knees buckled. The sheer weight of authority these beings carried was unlike anything he had encountered before.
Even the Lifeless Emperor’s presence hadn’t been this suffocating.
“You meddle where you do not belong,” the faceless enforcer intoned. “The fate of the Loom is not yours to weave.”
Aiden clenched his jaw. The Codex of True Sovereignty pulsed in his grasp, resisting the force.
Then—
Aiden heard Nexus laugh.
A slow, amused chuckle.
The enforcers stilled.
Nexus turned, his golden eyes glowing, and smiled at them as if they were nothing more than inconveniences.
“You lot really don’t understand, do you?”
He gestured toward Aiden.
“This one doesn’t just meddle in fate.
He rewrites it.”
Aiden didn’t hesitate.
The moment Nexus spoke, the oppressive force pressing down on him cracked—not because the enforcers had lessened their authority, but because Aiden had adapted to it.
His Million Soul Emperor Physique stirred. His Nine Ethereal Soul Emperor Physique surged.
He twisted his fingers, and the Codex of True Sovereignty shone with a profound radiance. The air hummed as unseen forces shifted—threads of fate and causality writhed around him.
“Rewrite this.”

Space Rend.
Aiden slashed downward—not with a weapon, but with conceptual authority.
The void fractured.
The enforcers reacted instantly.
The faceless one raised a hand—an ancient sigil formed in the air, attempting to seal the rupture.
But Aiden wasn’t stopping.
He twisted his foot—his body vanished.
The next instant, he was directly behind them.
The white-robed woman’s hollow sockets glowed—the golden threads in her eyes twisted like they had foreseen his movement.
She raised a hand of judgment.
But Aiden was faster.
His Reaper Scythe Martial Spirit manifested, wreathed in death energy so concentrated that the space around it eroded.
A single slash.
The very laws of cause and effect trembled.
The faceless enforcer’s arm vanished.
There was no blood. No wound.
His limb had simply ceased to exist.
The woman turned sharply.
“Impossible—”
Nexus laughed again, stepping forward with an air of absolute confidence.
“Told you.”
The enforcers staggered back. For the first time, hesitation flickered in their stance.
Aiden leveled his gaze. His golden sword Martial Spirit ignited, merging with his Reaper Scythe.
The fusion was seamless.
It wasn’t just a weapon anymore.
It was a verdict.
Aiden exhaled. “You’re in my way.”
The moment Aiden moved, the entire space distorted.
The enforcers had faced anomalies before—beings who bent reality, immortals who wielded conceptual weapons, monsters who could erase entire worlds.
But Aiden…
Aiden was something worse.
His Codex of True Sovereignty burned brighter—the unseen laws surrounding him shifted in response, like they were being rewritten in real-time.
“Cause and effect.”
Aiden swung his fused weapon.
It wasn’t an attack.
It was a command.
The faceless enforcer tried to step back, but his body froze mid-motion—as if the cause of his movement had been erased before it could happen.
The white-robed woman’s golden threads flared as she tried to counteract the effect.
“Reality stabilization—”
But she was too slow.
Aiden vanished—not through speed, not through teleportation, but through erasure of distance.
His blade descended.
The void shattered.
The faceless enforcer crumpled—not cut, not wounded, but emptied.
His form collapsed inward, like something had removed the concept of his existence from the timeline itself.
The white-robed woman recoiled, her golden threads snapping back in defense.
“This… isn’t right.”
She had fought countless beings before. She had wielded divine laws, shaped the fate of entire galaxies, dictated the judgment of the Heavens themselves.
But Aiden—he wasn’t following the rules.
He wasn’t simply powerful.
He was undoing reality.
Nexus watched, a slow grin spreading across his face.
“Looks like you understand now.”
Aiden exhaled, his golden eyes dimly glowing.
“You’re still in my way.”
The woman hesitated.
For the first time, fear flickered in her empty gaze.
The white-robed woman gritted her teeth, her golden threads twisting and forming intricate patterns in the air. These were Heaven’s Laws, the absolute order that bound reality itself. Even those who defied fate couldn’t escape the fundamental principles of cause and effect—unless they were like Aiden.
She took a slow step back, her divine senses sharpening.
“Impossible… What are you?”
Aiden didn’t answer.
His form blurred, space twisting around him as if the universe itself was rejecting his presence. He no longer walked through reality—he rewrote it with every step.
The woman wove a defensive formation at unimaginable speed.
“Celestial Binding: Absolute Cause!”
Golden runes flashed into existence, forming a barrier that locked every possible outcome into a single inevitable future—Aiden’s movements would be dictated by Heaven’s Will, forcing him into an inescapable path where she could counterattack.
Aiden smirked.
“You still don’t get it, do you?”
His Codex of True Sovereignty trembled, and his authority as Lord of Pride, Lucifer surged. The moment the divine law attempted to enforce its rule—it collapsed.
The golden runes fractured, shattering like fragile glass.
The woman’s eyes widened.
“He— He’s rejecting causality itself?!”
Aiden took another step forward.
The ground beneath him ceased to exist.
The very concept of position no longer applied to him—one moment he was standing before her, the next he was already behind her.
She barely had time to react.
Aiden’s sword descended.
“Rewrite.”
A single word.
A single swing.
The golden threads that made up her existence tore apart.
Her body didn’t explode, didn’t dissolve, didn’t even fade.
She simply ceased.
The air where she stood remained unchanged, as if she had never been there in the first place.
Silence followed.
The last enforcer, the one who had remained still the entire time, slowly exhaled.
His voice was calm.
“I see. You’re beyond the system.”
Aiden turned to him, golden eyes unreadable.
“And?”
The enforcer smiled. It was a knowing smile, one that belonged to someone who understood something profound—something inevitable.
“Then we have no choice but to escalate.”
A pulse spread through the void.
And Aiden felt it.
Something woke up.
Something that shouldn’t exist in this era.
Something that even he wasn’t sure he could erase.
