Chapter 2319 Reverend! IV
Chapter 2319 Reverend! IV
<We were wrong about all of it at the very beginning, O Agathocles. The opening of the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands in the Haven of Dissolution should have told you the same thing. We…should've never sought Extremity. The more we seek it, the more it draws near…and yet still infinitely far away. You will never reach it. I'll never reach it. And even if a stroke of Destiny came and we did reach it…what then? Will you finally be happy? Will you finally stop? Or will you simply realize that within Extremity, there exists something even far greater?>
…!
Crimson RUIN crackled and destroyed the fabric of Nature outside the floating Minor Plane as if denying the words of the True Emperor of Genesis!
Yet this being whose eyes were dug out seemed to see a whole lot more as he sighed while he continued.
<When we became Apex Aeonic Lifeforms, we thought we would have more freedom as instead, we only became more shackled. We were told to fight tooth and nail to reach Extremity…invited to join Forces we never knew existed as we left our Lineage designations. Those of us who denied were cast out and left to fend for ourselves as I came to realize…the selfish nature of organisms never changes no matter what stage of power they achieve.>
WAA!
<We always seek our own benefits. We always desire things for ourselves as cycles of hatred and chaos are sown no matter what stage we are at. War and chaos are ever present no matter where you go as if it's all the same…what meaning is there, Agathocles? When all I can see at the end of this path is merely our own ruin? When even in the baptism of Extremity, there is still death? Under the weight of Extremity, all of us are bound to perish…whether we reach it or not.>
BOOM!
The sea of NULLITY beneath him seethed with even more entropy as the thick tendrils of RUIN outside the Minor Plane formed into mountains that crashed down with immense ferocity!
Silence descended onto these lands as desolation was the only thing felt, the Noblesse Apex Lifeform known as Agathocles sighing even more as he continued to stare out into the Crimson blackness.
He had no words.
After all, they had exchanged too many words over the years.
Agathocles was silent as he spoke lightly after a few seconds passed.
<Have you reached it after all these years?>
A simple question that only Genesis understood as without a second delay, he nodded slowly as his Will emanated out once more.
<I've made some progress.>
<...>
Agathocles said nothing at this affirmation as he simply reached his hand out to grab even more tendrils of RUIN, gazing at them within his hands as they roared out chaotically while behind him, the massive chains of NULLITY and RUIN that had endlessly sunk into the Aspects of Existence of the True Emperor of Genesis began to crack and splinter into countless silver snowflakes.
<We were born from nothing, we remain nothing, and we'll return to nothing. We shall all perish under the weight of Extremity, but on my end…there are wrongs I must right before I perish. There are too many regrets.>
…!
A light of profundity and wonder thundered out madly from the words of the True Emperor of Genesis as everything around him seethed chaotically!
The chains that dug deep into his soul cracked and disappeared as if they're nothing, his massive figure that took a significant portion of the Minor Plane they were one rising as if he had never been chained.
Agathocles did not even turn around as the countless chains broke and the visage of Genesis rose, his feet dangling and feeling the surging waterfall of Nullity cascading down as his eyes carried mixed emotions.
The two beings stared out into the expanse of crimson ruin as the visage of Genesis soon began to flicker, space folding in on itself as within moments, he disappeared.
The only thing he left behind were a set of words.
<You were great company for all these years, Agathocles.>
…!
SHAA!
With that, the True Emperor of Genesis was gone.
Unshackled and unbound as he had reached an even greater stage of profundity!
Agathocles continued to stare out past the boundary of the Minor Plane as his eyes trembled at this moment, a calm voice emanating from him as he sighed.
<The lands always seem too grand and never ending. We thought the Aeonic Haven of Dissolution was it as later on, we find there are Seven Aeonic Havens with established Civilizations that have been there for trillions of years. I…was getting too tired of it all anyways. So thank you, Genesis.>
…!
His eyes trembled even more as his radiant transparent Crimson Halos began to fracture and shatter.
His skin then fissured and had countless cracks bloom as this being that exuded the immense life force of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform…instantly began to seem like a desiccated corpse as all signs of life were slowly fading away from him!
His very origin was destroyed long ago when Genesis had begun speaking, with Agathocles only realizing halfway through that he was already dead!
The profundity of RUIN and NULLITY within him that he believed in so much could do nothing to stop it.
So he became calm and listened to the words of the being he had personally dug the eyes out of and watched as focused RUIN and NULLITY surged into his vessels for many years while his Aspects of Existence should have been entirely shackled and unable to resist.
But at the end of it all, this being actually reached an even greater stage of profundity as with a single move, he extinguished the origin of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform!
The massive body of the Noblesse Apex Aeonic Lifeform began to flicker and turn into stellar dust that was flushed away by the raging waterfall of nullity, the eyes of this being closing peacefully as his Will emanated out for the last time.
<I hope you find your peace…Genesis.>
HOONG!
Essence seethed as his whole being turned into dust.
From the position he was in, a blinding singularity was left behind as some of the dust clustered around it, releasing a blinding radiance that very soon accumulated to pulse with a dreadfully potent aura of an Aeonic Treasure of Extremity!
Thereafter, everything returned to serenity in this Minor Plane.
The only thing that had changed…was one particular Apex Aeonic Lifeform becoming unchained after a significant number of years!
