Chapter 696 What to do?
Chapter 696 What to do?
After killing Agares Erste knelt on the ground breathing heavily, but despite his current condition the smile on his face never disappeared.
“Heh, I was lucky… If that guy wanted to kill me, he could have done it when I was in those nightmares, but… In the end that guy didn’t really want to kill me, he just wanted to see what was beyond the fear…”
Erste sat down and looked at the crumbling dark dimension and sighed. Even though he knew the things he saw in the nightmare were not real, they were simply possibilities. They were visions of what could happen in the future.
Erste might have become strong enough to deal with New and Old Gods with relative ease, but he was sure that wasn’t enough to change the current situation. The New and Old Gods were almost as numerous as humans maybe even more so, Erste has too little information about them.
Not to mention there are those beings that the Gods keep on mentioning, the Ancient Ones, and the one that seems to be above all else the ORIGIN.
‘Based on their names alone I have some idea of how strong they are. The Old God said the Ancient ones seem to have created the Old Gods, based on that it should mean that these Ancient ones are leagues above the Old Gods. As for the one called the ORIGIN based on what I heard from various Gods, I guess the name is literal. The origin of all things, so basically the real God the creator of everything…’
When Erste’s thoughts had reached this point there was a wry smile on his face as he shook his head and lay down on the ground.
‘The ORIGIN who is the most powerful being why even now hasn’t it done anything? All of these things that the Gods are doing are similar to when a child wants to get their parent’s attention. If only the ORIGIN will stop them from massacring humans… Is the ORIGIN someone who doesn’t interfere and only watches, or is the ORIGIN unable to interfere?…’ 𝘭𝒾𝒷𝓇𝘦𝑎𝑑.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Erste looked at the sky of this dimension cracking, but Erste was in no hurry to leave as he was still exhausted, and it’s not like the dimension would immediately be destroyed it would take some time before it fully broke.
‘I better stop thinking about why the ORIGIN doesn’t do anything, I need to figure out a way to meet this so-called ORIGIN. As long as the Gods feel jealous of humanity then the hunt of theirs will never end.’
Erste racked his brain for a few hours as the world around him was crumbling but no matter what he could not find a realistic solution to their problem.
‘If I can’t find a solution myself then…’ Erste sighed as he teleported away from the breaking-down dimension.
…
The ORIGIN who was watching Erste using an avatar was amazed by the events transpiring before him. To the ORIGIN everything was an open book that he already read, but Erste was different. Every single action Erste was taking was something new and exciting for the ORIGIN.
It was the first time in eternity that the ORIGIN had ever been so excited seeing so many new things and anticipating what would happen next.
The ORIGIN who was being infected by the thoughts and feelings of his creations was not bothered by those negative thoughts and feelings since he was Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent. The ORIGIN had no flaws for those negative things to affect him, but now with the arrival of something beyond his power a small insignificant flaw was made.
The negative things that could not get in had finally found a flaw, even the the ORIGIN did not notice the slight change in his heart. This was the first step into destruction.
…
Erste headed back to the Rebellion’s HQ and even though it had been years since he last returned not much had changed. Erste didn’t bother looking around as he directly went towards the office of the leader.
…
Frieda who was looking at the reports on her table felt a powerful presence approaching her. It was an incredible presence that almost drowned her in fear. Frieda quickly took out her weapon and got into a fighting stance.
The very second that door to her room opens she will launch an attack with all her might. Frieda clenched her fist tightly as she gulped dryly. The sense of oppression she had felt from the incoming being was like no other, even the Old God she had met before paled in comparison.
‘What is happening, why is such a being in here? What happened above ground, did everyone else-…’
Frieda stopped that line of thinking as she didn’t even want to imagine such an ending. Now all she needed to do was focus on what was happening before her.
Frieda saw the knob on her door turning, the very second the door was slightly opened Frieda no longer hesitated and attacked with everything she had. With a speed that surpassed time itself, Frieda unleashed the strongest and fastest attack she could muster. In this very moment, Frieda had surpassed herself and had full confidence she could bring down even an Old God.
She was confident in her victory which made her greatly surprised to see that her attack didn’t connect and she was caught by the other party. Frieda felt an overwhelming sense of despair as she felt the power emanating from the other party. As she was getting ready for her demise she heard an extremely familiar voice speaking to her.
“What are you doing?”
Frieda who was still alive lifted her head and looked at the opponent she was facing and saw a familiar face, it was none other than Erste.
“…” Frieda did not know what to say as she looked at Erste dumbfounded.
“It was a good thing it was me you attacked, if anyone else in this base received such an attack they’ll explode into nothingness.” Erste joked despite knowing full well why Frieda attacked. Seeing the smile on his face Frieda also guessed that releasing such pressure was deliberate.
“A*shole.” Frieda cursed as she pouted.
