Absolute Cheater-Chapter 223: Back to Volarisa IV
Just as Asher expected, his cheat ability didn't fail him. After scanning the entire universe, he quickly located the galaxy where his home once was.
And just he continued to read the data appraisal have given him, it shocked him.
What he discovered shocked him.
The Cometis race was now extinct, completely wiped out from existence. Meanwhile, the human race had spread across the galaxy, competing with the Negukir race for dominance.
In just two decades of his absence, the entire balance of power had shifted.
Volaris, his home world, was no longer what it used to be. It is now a Realm tier world from its initial Mid Tier world.
The galaxy have a structured hierarchy, with worlds categorized from Low-Tier to Mid-Tier, then High-Tier , and finally, the Realm-Tier (like the world he just left), the highest possible classification a world could attain.
Which meant that Volarisa's peak power level had now reached the True Transcendent Realm as well.
"Damn, how did it end up like this in just two decades?" Asher mumbled, his grand plan of coming back, dominating, and wiping out the other two races with his supreme overpowered abilities now completely ruined.
'I really wanted to feel what it's like to be a bully,' he sighed in disappointment.
But…
'Well, I guess I'm still a bully,' he thought with a smirk. Even if my power is only at the True Transcendent Realm, with my cheats and my new blessings, I'm still stronger than most True Transcendents.
With that thought, he stretched his body and prepared himself.
"Well, I found it," he muttered.

Valeris, who had been watching him, tilted her head. "Really? That was fast," she said, sitting down with amusement.
Asher chuckled. "Hm, the problem is, even at full speed in absolute space, it will still take... about one cosmic year to get there."
Valeris narrowed her eyes. "One cosmic year?"
"Yeah," Asher nodded. "That means... 1,000 light-years of travel."
Valeris sighed. "Well then, I hope you have some good entertainment planned, mate."
"No, we are not going to travel that long," Asher said firmly.
Valeris raised an eyebrow as he added, "There is a High-Tier Galaxy on the way. We'll level up there first, and with our new power, we should be able to easily traverse the cosmic distance afterward."
Asher sighed, a hint of regret in his voice. "It's sad, but I can't do anything about it. If I don't want to waste time traveling for years, or by the time I reach there, my friends from the academy most probably be grandparents at that time," he muttered.
"That's... a good idea," Valeris admitted, nodding in agreement.
"Alright, let's go then," Asher declared as he led the way forward.
Though he said the distance was nothing, in reality, even by Absolute Space Travel, it would take at least half a light-year to reach the High-Tier Galaxy.
And even though that was fast compared to normal means, it would still take time before they finally arrived.
As they soared through the cosmic void, the shimmering galaxies around them flickered like distant lanterns in an infinite sea of darkness. Asher remained deep in thought, his gaze fixed on the path ahead.
Valeris, flying beside him in her White Dragon Goddess form, glanced at him. "You're awfully quiet," she remarked.
"I'm just thinking," Asher admitted. "About what comes next. Even if we reach that High-Tier Galaxy and level up, finding my original world—Volarisa—won't be easy. The galaxy's political structure has changed drastically, and I don't even know where to start searching."
Valeris hummed in thought before responding, "If humans truly rule the galaxy now, it might be easier than you think. Someone, somewhere, must have records of Volarisa's migration. We just need to find the right source."
Asher smirked. "And if they don't want to talk?"
She chuckled, her dragon wings spreading majestically. "Then we make them talk."
His smirk widened. "I like the way you think."
A sudden ripple in space made both of them snap to attention. Ahead of them, a massive energy distortion began to swirl, forming what looked like a rift in space.
"A Cosmic Rift?" Asher muttered.
Valeris narrowed her eyes. "No... this is different. It feels... unstable."
Before either of them could react, the rift exploded open, and a surge of energy pulled them in. The space around them twisted, and in an instant, they were swallowed by the unknown.
Asher sat cross-legged, deep in thought, as they traveled through the Cosmic Rift Tunnel.
"You're awfully quiet again," Valeris observed, watching him with curiosity.
"This is my second time in one of these tunnels," Asher replied without opening his eyes. "The first time sent me out into your world… Looks like it happened again."
Valeris sighed. "Well, I guess we can't do anything about it now." She leaned back, allowing herself to relax as they drifted through the unexpected journey.
After what felt like an hour, they finally saw light ahead—a sign that they were nearing the end of the tunnel. Moments later, they burst out of the rift and found themselves suspended in mid-air. Below them, a vast ocean stretched endlessly, waves crashing against one another with immense force.
"We're above an ocean," Asher said, scanning the surroundings.
Before Valeris could respond, the water below them began to churn violently, and an enormous creature lunged at them from beneath the waves—a Leviathan, its gaping maw large enough to swallow them whole in a single bite.
Asher's instincts kicked in immediately, as he easily dodged it.
"This thing… It's at the Third Transcendent Stage," he noted, his eyes narrowing. "That means this world is at least a Realm-Class world."
Valeris smirked, her dragon eyes glowing ominously. "So, what do we do? Kill it?"
"Nah," Asher said, shifting his focus. "Let's find a continent first. No need to waste time on a random sea monster."
With that, they shot northward, leaving the Leviathan roaring in frustration behind them.
"Let's find a place to rest first," Asher said. "At the very least, we can recover here before continuing our travels. If this place turns out to have a higher cultivation limit, we might even consider staying and growing stronger here."
Valeris nodded in agreement. "That makes sense. No need to rush if this world can help us reach new heights."
