Chapter 2382 I Will Forge My Own Inheritance! I
For the prosperity of all Lernaeans!
Under the burning flames of Extremity Sanctification, Emperor Maximilian knew that the Ancestral Lernaeans would only be more fuel to it by the Inheritances that reached out to them.
He had his own ideas on how to best navigate and minimize the damage of what was to come, while at the same time…obtaining as many boons as possible!
Having an identity connected to an Inheritance with a deep history was also a tool in itself.
Consummate Boundaries. Apex Aeonic Relics. Aeonic Treasures of Extremity.
All of these were already in line to be offered as all that was left was their decision.
So if an existence appeared from their own Lineage who had somehow forged Consummate Boundaries that could elevate the strength of their whole Lineage by another level…a different pathway could open up for them.𝑛𝚘𝚟𝑬𝓵𝑢𝐬𝗯.𝒸𝒐𝓂
Maybe they could forge their own path!
But, all this depended on just what Entity had risen forth from the ashes of the Ancestral Lernaeans.
"For the prosperity of all Lernaeans, huh?"
The voice of the True Emperor of Quintessence reached Maximilian as this being held an immovable smile on his face.
He gazed at the Elder Ancestors in the surroundings as he spoke freely.
"If you can believe it, I never lost any sleep thinking about the prosperity of all Lernaeans."
WAA!
"Just like they never lost any sleep for me and the Barren Lands, I also don't give a damn about them. Let the Inheritances come and rip you all apart. Join their factions as just one of the countless Bloodlines there as within a few million years, the identity of the Lernaean Lineage will be all but erased as they only identify with the Inheritance that took them in. Those that end up surviving anyways…"
…!
Extremely heavy words left Noah's mouth as immense silence descended in the surroundings!
He didn't bullshit anything as his true thoughts were unveiled without any falsification.
His bright eyes swirled with Providence as he looked at the visage of the Aeonic Soul Clone of the Interim Aeonic Lernaean Lineage Emperor before him.
Maximilian.
A being who had actually failed during his process of Apexification!
Uniquely for him, he had actually managed to survive such an ordeal as within his body, fractured and twisted Aeonic Extremity Meridians could be seen.
He didn't have a path in front of him.
Even being the one leading the party that discovered the entrance into the Havens of Extremity, even being one of the oldest Lernaeans currently in existence…none of it had changed his destiny as here he was now.
He genuinely seemed to care about the countless quintillions of Ancestral Lernaeans due to his cut off path as his being the one chosen to become the Interim Aeonic Lernaean ancestry Emperor was a very fitting choice!
Such a being looked towards Noah as the Lineage Authority still remained leaking from him.
It pressed down on all the Elder Ancestors behind him even though some wanted to erupt at Noah's words, his gaze remaining calm as he seemed to see things others didn't.
He leaned forward from his Throne as he replied with squinting eyes.
"You don't hold any attachment to the vast number of Lernaeans…and yet you moved your body to stand in front of one of our Elder Ancestors right here when an attack from an Apex Eternal Soul Totem came."
His eyes came to land on the terrifically beautiful visage of Ophelia who stood out greatly among the masses currently!
The memories of what had happened prior were shared with Maximilian as towards his words, Noah smiled and gave a light nod.
Yes.
Why did he defend Ophelia? Could this being before him quickly catch on to what he was saying?
"You don't care for the Ancestral Lernaeans, but if it is anyone who is underneath your rule…you will put your own life on the line for them. You are saying that so long as Lernaeans are under you- along with their long history, their Sacrariums, everything they have built over the eons…only then will they share in your boons and fate."
WAA!
Dazzling words emanated out as nobody could say anything else!
Noah reclined on his Throne with a smile as he gazed at the pondering expression on Maximilian.
He had made his intentions clear when the first few Elder Ancestors had arrived.
If they wanted his Consummate Boundaries, they had to pledge fealty!
But now, the new factor of Inheritances came into the picture came.
And this was of utmost importance as Maximilian nodded towards Noah's smile of affirmation while continuing.
"The Cult of Endless Shadows from the Eternal Haven of Penumbra, the Genesis Institute of Extremity from the Aeonic Haven of Genesis, and the Light of the Seven from the Aeonic Haven of Helios have all sent forth Apex Aeonic Lifeforms to meet with ours. They offer the inclusion of our Lineage into their Inheritances in exchange for our Apex Aeonic Lifeforms working for them after the end of the Initiating Step of the Extremity Vein of Dissolution, including the ones that rise in the 10 Billion years to come. They offer identity and protection against other Inheritances as the continuation of our Lineage is guaranteed. If you were reigning over Ancestral Lernaeans, how would you manage this?"
…!
A question that caused the Elder Ancestors behind him to tremble.
What exactly was Emperor Maximilian doing? Why was he entertaining all these words and ideals when talking to this being?!
These were things that were only supposed to be discussed with their Apex Eternal Lifeforms as they dealt with the very future of their Lineage.
Was Emperor Maximilian truly serious…
"Interesting."
Noah's voice echoed out as he rose from his sandy gold throne, the essence of Dreams swirling around him as he stared out into the vastness past even the boundary of the Abecedarian Sacrarium.
"The Cult of Endless Shadows, Genesis Institute of Extremity…or whatever other legacies out there seeking to spread their influence- why the hell would I join any of them?"
…!
"I will simply create my own Inheritance that shall echo its glory across the Havens of Extremity!"
BOOM!
