Chapter 313: Drinking The Abyssal Sea
Chapter 313: Drinking The Abyssal Sea
—–
Frank jumped right into the abyss of Terra, an immense abyss where the Demon King crawled its way into the surface… this world of perpetual darkness was illuminated by his Divinity of Chaos and Fate, which glowed with black light and white light, rotating around him as he used it to impulse himself down below at fast speed, falling like a meteor and illuminating the earth and rocks he found.
Through his journey he saw large caves filled with beautiful jewels of all colors, enormous worms that devoured the earth from the inside which he mostly ignored as they were Rank 4-5, and countless beasts made of Miasma, which died instantaneously the moment he unleashed his divinity, dropping gold that converted into App Points and small items or potions.
However, he hadn’t come here to seek little items to farm for, he came for something else.
Unaffected by the powerful forces of gravity trying to crush him, he used more and more of his mana, as he flew at incredible speeds, reaching the eternal darkness below!
BOOM!
Suddenly, he crashed against the floor, blasting it into pieces.
And then… he sensed the tranquil sound of ocean waves hitting each other.
He glared down below with his Stargazing eyes, as he realized that this sea was… completely black and bubbly, and even quite slimy.
And there was the scent of something very acidic… indeed, this was miasma.
This was the Abyssal Sea.
The Abyssal Sea, the name given to the mass of pure liquid miasma that concentrated within the center of Terra’s core. It was made by the residual concentration of Chaos left after Axitl’s creation, this residual chaos and miasma was the energy that couldn’t be transformed into proper attributes by the Gods due to their lack of experience and tact at the time of creating the world.
Due to their bad usage of their abilities based on their lack of experience, this chaos continued to form as they created larger pieces of land. When everything was done, this thing was left…
It was so much they felt ashamed of themselves, but by the idea of Thineas, who wanted to create life from this chaos and bring a new ally and companion to them, the chaos was transformed into a goddess, the young Goddess of Chaos, Axitl, who could be considered the daughter of all the Gods as all of them created the Chaos which therefore transformed into miasma due to their powers.
However, Axitl’s creation wasn’t able to take on all the chaos as she would become too unstable if she were to be made of more than what was used on her…
Recently born and curious about the world and everything around her, the little young goddess of chaos glanced at the other Gods, as they moved the immense mass of liquid chaos, miasma, into the planet’s core, sealing it with the last bit of their power before falling asleep…
Thineas was only able to kiss Axitl’s forehead before she went into a slumber, apologizing to her before she was left alone and without any of her questions answered…
The little girl stood there after her creation, those that created here were no longer at her side, and wouldn’t be for many years…
She glanced at the planet down below, her big crimson eyes curiously inspecting the world’s life, as she slowly floated through outer space, sitting in the moon… for hundreds of years.
She saw the world change before her eyes, as the miasma changed and one day emerged, materializing itself into life… the Demon King’s first coming happened. She felt an instinctual connection with it, as she saw it destroy the world she found so fun to watch, conflicting feelings began to rose inside of her heart…
Since then, the miasma continued to fight against its imprisonment, each time it brought an even stronger Demon King, almost wiping out the entire surface of Terra each time, entire civilizations were lost, endemic life, and more…
But Axitl slowly studied her own powers through these hundreds and thousands of years, until she finally created Dungeons, a way to absorb the miasma of the world and repurpose it into Divine Energy for her and pure mana that could nourish the world’s nature and make it recover even quicker after the damage that the Dameon King would leave.
She had barely managed to save the world, but no one had ever recognized it… until Frank came.
Now, Frank glanced at this miasma, the chaos where Axitl was born, and where a new Demon King would one day emerge too…
But he decided that it was time for this cycle to come to an end.
Frank’s entire body shapeshifted into a mass of darkness shaping itself as a gigantic black void, and he activated Gluttony.
FLASH!
Like a vacuum that ate anything, the Abyssal Sea quickly began to be absorbed into Frank’s entire being, forming a vortex.
As he devoured the Abyssal Sea, he refined it and made it all his power, transmuting it into pure power and nourishing both his body and soul with it!
He relaxed and continued to devour and refine… for many minutes, hours, and… even days.
He felt in a trance as he continued to absorb everything without stopping.
But this was something he needed to do… not only to save Terra but also for him to grow stronger.
Eating the Abyssal Sea was the best way to grow stronger after all.
After ten days and ten nights, Frank’s consciousness finally came back, the last drop of the Abyssal Sea was drank, and he suddenly felt the immense changes it brought to him…
His whole being began to bubble and evolve, his soul resonated with enormous quantities of chaos, as he glanced down below at the empty dirt, there was a gigantic crystal glowing down below, shining brightly with purple and black colors.
He felt immense strength, yet it was not over yet…
This crystal was the thing the Watchers were after, the Origin Core.
Frank flew towards it as his body began to evolve and he once more felt completely different, touching the crystal with his hand.
He didn’t want to eat it, but to fuse himself with it.
