Novel Bin Chapter 612 - The Truth Has Been Revealed
They saw how the entity was birthed from this spiraling chaos and the bright light, and how it wandered the universe, only to eventually divide itself for a strange motive, fight against one another, kill each other, and through their corpses, form an entire world…
However, this world ended being divided in two, both Future and Past Kritias, two reflections of the same world, with the only difference being that one had began first before the other…
"This is… what can we even make up from this?" asked Razdall.
"You\'re really an idiot, can\'t you guess? It is the literal origin of everything, even of us!" said Vedon.
"Indeed… This shows that we… we are part of that being. We were born from their corpses after all. We are all of them." Said Lamus.
"Incredible… I think I am having a bit of dizziness…" sighed Zilmera.
"If I understood this right, these visions were of the origin of our world? It showed Anir and Kelsus and even their previous form, when they were a single being, it even showed when they were an egg created by two other beings… Who were them? Are they considered our parents, or grandparents?" asked Nymera.
"I would say they could be our true creators, while Anir and Kelsus are our predecessors, parents, or even more radical, our past selves…" said Uphy.
"Interesting… Then… what about the people here? The monsters? The plants?" asked Phunana.
"They are all also… these two gods past selves… It is as if we are all one single entity that divided many times across time and space… It is both mesmerizing and… terrifying to think about… How far have our true selves fragmented from their original point…" said Kesheia, her eyes shone with melancholy.
"And you two… You ate the Origin Core of Future Kritias?!" asked Lamus.
"Yeah, that\'s how we got the memories." Said Ervas.
"I guess that\'s why you are so strong…" said Razdall.
"Kind of, although we were already pretty strong after we ate Super Bestellen." Said Veronica.
"Haha… Super Bestellen…" laughed Qadall.
"Anyways, there is a lot left to see yet, so don\'t hurry up into conclusions… We have to reveal you this now." Said Ervas and Veronica, fusing together as they showed yet another projection using Illusion and Dream Magic…
FLASH!
They showed a large projection from a holographic window made of pink light, which showed their entire conversation with the monstrous entity that lived inside of Bestellen!
The entire scene reproduced in front of the Gods as if it were a movie.
The entity resembling a skull of monstrous and aberrant appearance confronted the split souls in this projection…
"Hahahhhh…! You two… I know who you are now! And where you came from!" he laughed.
Ervas and Veronica glared at him… they had many questions as well…
"Who are you exactly? The Demon God King? Bestellen? Anir? Kelsus?" asked Veronica.
"Tell us…" said Ervas.
The monstrosity in front of them laughed, as its grotesque body pulsated…
"I am the origin and the end, black and light, dark and bright, life and death, order and chaos…! I am no one else than me!" it said pridefully…
"So you\'re an amalgamation of the residual thoughts and egos of Kelsus and Anir?" asked Ervas.
"Haaahhaha…! I was born from the corpses, I am both of them, and none!" it said, as it moved around mysteriously.
"What was your purpose?" asked Veronica.
"My purpose? My purpose was to bring it all back to me! Back to how it was! …A miscalculation! They didn\'t know a world- no, two worlds would emerge from their corpses… To think that I was so close to it… if it wasn\'t because of you two! How could it be… you two are capable of… assimilating them, to assimilate me?! How? …HOW?!" said the entity.
"Not even we know why," said Veronica while shrugging.
"I believe that it is because we possess a similar nature in our souls. And we were able to fit you two just right. After that, we developed our fragmented souls until the point where we became capable of absorbing your power… fragments are small, as long as we do them one by one… it is possible. But now that we developed so much, we can do it en masse," said Ervas.
"EH? You figured it out pretty quickly!" said Veronica.
"It was rather obvious," said Ervas.
"GGRRRR…! You don\'t deserve to be their herald! I was the one! The chosen one!" roared the beast, rushing towards Ervas and Veronica as it opened its dozens of jaws and threw various tentacles at them!
However, the split souls fused in an instant into a gray specter and quickly caught it, throwing it into the ground and crushing it with immense power! He was nothing to them!
"Nnnnngghgh?! Y-You damn bastards…! You damn bastardssss!" roared the beast.
"So you\'re the Demon God King\'s primal consciousness in a way?" asked Veronica.
"Geheheh… I HAVE MANY NAMES!" laughed the entity.
"Let\'s kill him," sighed Ervas.
"No, wait, answer me this at the very least… Did you make Bestellen change his mind? Were you the one that influenced him to become so hateful of demons and beast-kin?" asked Veronica.
"Oooooohhhh… Did it hurt you? Did you not like how your people died? Well, they were all merely part of them, dying didn\'t mean disappearing, they simply went back to where they belonged, to the corpses!" laughed the entity.
"Answer my question!" roared Veronica, as she began to slash through the beast, causing it severe pain!
"UNNNGRRAAGGH…! GARRAAAHAHAHA! GAHAHAHA! Yes! I did it! I did it all! I influenced him… he was so innocent, so feeble, so stupid! It was so easy! Easy! First, separate them… and then, make them all kill each other! GAHAHAHA! The easiest job of my life! Yet… it all went to ruins! BECAUSE OF YOUUUU!"" laughed the entity, as it suddenly tried to fight back but it was punched into the ground with ease.
SMACK!
"Unnngggrrhhh…!"
"Quiet…" said Ervas, his crimson eyes gleaming with bloodthirst.
"Gehehe… it is all hopeless now.. the world will end anyways! The corpses will awake, and the calamities once more shall fight while roaming the Grand Cosmos! My work as a herald is done, and you won\'t be able to stop it even after killing me anyways! GAHAHAHAH! GAGAHAH- Gueegghh…!"
The split souls grabbed the beast from its grotesque head as they began to devour it slowly.
"Do you really think so?" asked Veronica.
"Is it so hard to imagine what we\'ll do after this?" sighed Ervas.
"Eh? What are you talking about… AGH! W-Wait…! Y-Youuu…! D-Don\'t tell you to intend to…! That\'s… stop! STOP!" roared the beast in anger and frustration, as he was slowly consumed.
"Yes, we\'ll do just that," said Ervas.
"If we can\'t save the world, we\'ll simply consume it!" said Veronica.
"Y-You can\'t just do that…! Nnngggh…! NNNNGRRRYYAAHHHH…!"
CRASH!
The projection ended in this moment, as the Gods were left speechless…
"The Demon God King was… the herald of Anir and Kelsus?!" asked Razdall.
"It can\'t be… So he was made to destroy us… so he could bring it all back to how they were, to revie the two gods by killing us and assimilating everything back to the world!" said Lamus.
"And he existed… for so long too… Bestellen was but part of his plan…" sighed Vedon.
The truth had finally been revealed to them.
