Grandmaster Vredral's body was trembling as the terrifying possibility he thought of when he observed Crixus to turn into a monstrous figure was ascertained, and it was even more horrible as his other disciple was also involved!
"What..why…?"
His aged brain seemed to move slower as his white beard trembled, his eyes on Athena switching from shock to wrath as his status as an experienced Grandmaster returned gradually after the shock, his body beginning to glow with power at the Domain Expansion realm as he screamed out in a painful manner.
"Both my disciples! Who did this? Who did this?!"
His attacks went towards Athena as she brushed them off, her level of power that was a rank higher than her Master dominating the scene as she looked towards him with a difficult gaze.
"You took me from Grandmaster Luo as my Master, taught me all I know about fate and chaos. Yet...you were the one acting hypocritically all this time!"
Hey immense power that was a realm higher wrapped around Vredral as he was completely incapacitated, his gaze wrathfully shaking as he looked towards her.
"You were a being with a Noble Fate! What could have possibly made you turn away from such a golden path?! What made you and that other monster I trained into such wretched creatures?!"
RUMBLE!
Athena was about to confront Grandmaster Vredral and release all her pent-up emotions and injustices she felt from this being that effectively raised her. She was about to see if she could get a sense of peace before her death came under the hands of the terrifying being that had turned into a star...she actually wanted to say many things to this being she called her master!
Yet at this moment, a spatial ripple erupted out as a figure swiftly appeared in the command room of the Realm Dreadnaught, his gaze landing on the disciple and master about to confront each other in an emotional tearjerker.
It was a devilishly handsome being with hair tinged gold and black, streaks of silver within as his face looked eerily similar to the 9th Infernal Lord outside of the Realm Dreadnaught facing Commanders Verdant and Lylle!
Noah's second clone that always remained in the Time Space of the Infinite Realm training had taken a brief break as he appeared on the command room of the Realm Dreadnaught, a veil spreading out from him as the events in this expansive room were covered from any peering eyes.
"Well, isn't this sweet."
His voice rang out as his face rapidly changed, adopting the face of Crixus, a being the both of them knew all too well!
"A Master and his two disciples are together once more, this time watching a grand show."
He spoke with a smile as Grandmaster Vredral's body shook even more, feeling an immense power from this being with the face of Crixus as he waved his hands towards him, the energy that Athena had used to wrap around him fading away as his body was raised in the air like a ragdoll, his face being raised towards the clear glass that showed the events playing out in the starry space across the Verittas Fortress!
"I want both of you to watch the events about to play out next with full attention. You can play out the drama of betrayal and emotions thereafter."
RUMBLE!
His words rang out as Athena bit her lips and turned her gaze towards the shocking scene playing out in the starry expanse of space, her mind filled with many thoughts as she considered the face of the Infernal Lord that had changed into Crixus just a moment ago.
But as she heard his cold tone towards her once more, the hope she had that the relationship she had with this Junior Brother of hers might still have a semblance of meaning were dashed as she wondered- was he just putting on a show, or was there actually something deep within his heart that made the time they spent together real?!
She never received an answer as her hopes sank even lower, the lul that the battlefield experienced with the advent of a monstrous figure of star ending at this moment!
WAA!
A shocking level of power was erupting out on two sides of the battlefield, both of them had Noah as the central figure among them. As if this was not enough, his second clone had also appeared in the Realm Dreadnaught of the Celestials as a maddened Grandmaster was forced to lay his eyes on a terrible nightmare…
"My dear Senior Sister, go out and let me see you give judgment to those who truly spread chaos. Let our master see exactly what those establishing order look like."
Athena's let out an emotional sigh as she nodded, her body beginning to be wrapped in colors of gold as she adorned Fate's Armament. Her gaze became sharp as her eyes honed in on the backs of many Celestials populating the battlefield!
A grand show was about to play out, and its conclusion would be a shocking one to experience!
Chapter 569: Three Down!
In the vastness of space where chaotic battles were already taking place, a particular War Princess appeared out in the open. Her body was clad in a golden Fate Armament, two golden harmers hanging beside her dangerously.
She breathed out with cold eyes as her gaze landed on the forces of many shocked celestials.
She wondered how many of them were like her? How many were brought into the organization that was the celestials as they listened to their doctrines and killed under their orders?
All for the sake of order and balance, but they were the ones causing the most chaos!
Her body moved even with these thoughts as her hammers began to land on the nearest Celestials there were clustered around the vessels closest to the Realm Dreadnaught.
In her mind, it mattered not how many of these celestials were like her. All of them, her included, were guilty and they had to atone for what they did!
Maybe after atonement, there was a chance.
Maybe…
Many thoughts and possibilities swam in her mind as the picture of a single being continued to occupy her thoughts.
BOOM!
A powerful explosion rang out in the back of the defense line of the celestials, that particular region going into disarray as they were attacked in a place they never expected!
The War Princess had begun carrying out judgment in a true sense as it delved the battlefield into further chaos, many not being able to understand what exactly was happening.
It was chaos! Utter and complete chaos!
RUMBLE!
Essence continued to erupt through as when one pulled to observe the wider state of the battlefield, they would have to pay attention to truly too many things.
Multiple figures were fighting in many directions, each of them having their own thoughts on what was currently happening!
There was the appearance of enormous monstrosity in the form of a star on one side, as well as the glimmering and beautiful display of authority in the hands of the 9th Infernal Lord and the Commanders Verdant and Lylle.
There were the fearsome armored beasts like the Emperor Penguin and the Kraken that were using spectacular skills they had learned with the Library feature of the Infinite Realm. There were the commanders of the Verittas Fortress that were matched with the three remaining Celestial Star Forgers.
One person truly could not get a full grasp of what all the pieces in this battlefield were doing at this exact moment, but the intrusion of a golden armored and wicked War Princess beginning slaughter in the back lines of the celestials caught the eyes of many!
But the only thing that many of the shocked beings could muster on top of this already chaotic battle was but a single thought.
'What the hell is going on?!'
Yes! Not many people knew what was even happening with the sequence of events. To them, it seemed like an unbelievable fantasy where there was a competition for how many more shocks they could receive today!
Very few knew the actual reasoning, and the single person behind all of them was in the realm dreadnought.
Noah's second clone was holding on to the body of Grandmaster Vredral as the old man's beard shook as he watched the scenes of his first disciple taking down Celestials on their own camp, whi
le his second disciple actually controlled his body and made him watch!
At the next moment, Noah also waved his hands as an illusory screen appeared in front of them. The screen displayed a hectic and terrifying scene of the three Star Forgers that were actually at the center of the Aether Star Form that Noab had activated.
"Something interesting seems to be happening over here. Why don't we watch?"
His voice rang out as the scene played out. The three star forging commanders were using all of their skills to battle the grotesque moving tentacles that trembled with the power of Aether.
At the center of this monstrous star form, the tentacles seemed nearly endless as they wriggled and constricted further and further in the small circle that these three star forgers were encased in!
As if this was not enough, each of these tentacles released terrifying rays of Aether that were wrapped in chaotic essence. The moment these rays of Aether and chaos landed on them, a portal of terror blew and a construct of Aether came to being.
This construct of Aether looked like a devilish little imp that danced and jumped around in space, their eyes constantly dancing with the light of destruction as they went on to attach onto the bodies of the three celestial star forgers and continued to release horrendous destructive Ather!
It was damage on top of damage all around as the minds of these star forgers turned chaotic. They actually could not do anything against this continuing constricting tentacular grotesque form of a being they had fallen into the trap of, and saw no way out.
"Burn your souls…!"
"Burn your souls!!"
Their hearts were in pain as they actually saw the wriggling masses of tentacles getting closer and closer, the circle that were in getting smaller and smaller. This suffocating feeling was shocking to experience as while very few could actually see what was happening in the middle of the grotesque form of a young terror, the scene in it was truly a sight to see as three actual Star Forging individuals were about to face their deaths without anyone being the wiser.
RUMBLE!
As if this wasn't enough, Noah's mind moved as he used another one of the new abilities from the Star Forging Terror skill tree!
[Madness Descension].
WAA!
A horrendous air bloomed with the targets of the three Celestials at the center, a purple-colored energy permeating through them as their already chaotic states were made even worse.
They felt the control over their defenses and skills weakening as their minds slowly fell, their eyes becoming blanks as a second later, they actually faltered as a light of madness overtook them!
It was a terrifying scene as their bodies actually came to a halt, the terrifying tentacles they were horrified of being able to come close to them with no intrusion as they began to wrap around them in a suffocating manner.
The power of aether in these tentacles began ripping their bodies apart as the small circle that existed with Noah's Star Form fully closed, the beings within squashed into paste!
A shocking scene where three Star Forgers fell in a matter of minutes played out, very few actually being able to see such a thing!
Chapter 570 - Lets get crazy
Noah's enormous Aether Star Form felt an eruption of might the moment that the Star Forging Celestial Commanders fell. The most immediate effect was watching his Fate Lines beginning to shoot up by hundreds of thousands.
The number continued to change on his stat panel until he saw an addition of more than a million fate lines from the deaths of just these three Celestials!
The 12% effect that Fate Stealer had meant he was eating up hundreds of thousands of Fate Lines every time that a being that held millions of them died, these powerful Star Forgers that had trained for hundreds of years finding all of their efforts being taken by him.
This wasn't all as another section in the stat panel that had only been getting reduced the past months actually jumped, his Skill Points increasing by over 100 from the origins of these powerful Star Forging experts!
His humongous red eyes could not help but shine with a brilliant light as he ascertained this reality, his aura becoming even more oppressive.
"Haha!"
RUMBLE!
Boisterous laughter erupted from his grotesque Aether Star Form as it shook the surrounding miles, those hearing this laugh feeling a sense of foreboding as the aura of the three Celestial Commanders had disappeared!
"Brothers!"
Commanders Verdant and Lylle released pained and shocked cries as they felt the auras of their three being they knew for years disappear, but they could not even take the time to look at the monstrous form of a Terror that had taken the three of them as they were under constant attacks themselves.
WAA!
With a glorious demeanor, the 9th Infernal Lord was actually crowned in the golden light of fate. A Fate Lord's Armament wrapping around him as he seamlessly used the Authority of Fate even better than the two Celestial Commanders he was facing!
The light of Chaos also somehow surrounded this grand aura of fate as it dealt even more damage to the two Celestials, the battle actually going on to favor the Infernal Lord as the seconds passed.
Noah glanced at this scene as he knew he could simply continue using his Authority and his armament to overwhelm the two Fate Lords until they were defeated. All three of them in the overlayed authorities knew this!
But...why should he play it like this? What if he went just a little crazy and had more fun?
RUMBLE!
His eyes closed into slits as while surrounded by three Authorities and adorning a Fate Lord's Armament, his main body that was the Infernal Lord also uttered ridiculous words.
[Aether Star Form].
…!!!
WAA!
Ridiculousness ensued as enormous tentacles covered with the aura of Aether, Chaos, Fate, Fire, and Water elements erupted out from the 9th Infernal Lord and began swallowing everything!
Commanders Verdant and Lylle were quickly wrapped in the tentacles as they directly began burning their souls to defend themselves, their areas of Authority being overtaken as another enormous form of a young Terror took shape to cover over 200 miles!
But this enormous star-sized being was different than the one that appeared first.
The colors of gold, black, purple, red, and blue were swimming around this enormous mass of moving tentacles to represent all the elements that were actively being used as when the eyes that spanned for miles on this being opened, they blazed red while adopting a star shaped golden pupil!
This wasn't all as in the back of this monstrous form, golden particles of light were forming as wings that spanned tens of miles were established in an aurora of colors and lights, giving this new Ather Star Form a majestic yet terrifying look as the wriggling masses of tentacles were attached to golden wings beautifully spanning out.
"..."
No matter if it was the attackers from the Light Expanse or the defenders of the Dark Expanse, all those watching were stumped at the scene playing out as they thought similar things!
"Oh come on…"
"What the f.u.c.k…?!"
"Are you kidding me…"
All those watching had their jaws falling to the floor as they simply could not wrap their minds at what was happening.
They...they wanted to pack their bags and go home!
They were just here to participate in a war, but who the hell was this guy who just continued to break all common sense?!
As if one star-sized monstrosity wasn't enough, Noah simply pulled out another one as in the starry space surrounding the Verittas Fortress, two new moving stars had appeared in full grandeur.
---
In the Celestial Realm, Aldrich watched on with emotionless eyes as the scene of monstrous stars appeared on the battlefield at the Verittas Fortress.
He watched when things suddenly began going wrong as the first enormous creature that resembled a young terror actually came from a bein
g his own organization had raised, and then watched as the Commander that he appointed himself begin to attack her forces whether by her own will or someone else!
The situation had colossally crumbled down and would have made many beings falter, but not Aldrich!
Amidst all of this, the moment things began veering off track- he had focused all of his power and comprehension of a Supreme Law to focus on the single figure that seemed to be the center of this disruption.
His eyes shone with a golden l.u.s.ter as they first focused on the 200 miles long monstrous being, and then locked on when the 9th Infernal Lord took a similar form. They tried to peer behind the veils of secrecy as Aldrich used his Authority that neared 100% completion...and they were finally able to see something as he rose up with a shocked gaze for the first time in hundreds of years!
"Ridiculous…"
Yes! Using his Authority of a Supreme law that neared completion, he had actually been able to peer through multiple veils and see something that was truly ridiculous!
He used his immense power and authority as he was actually able to see the three figures that were inside the monstrous young terror that had stemmed from Crixus in a shade of gold, and the moment these Commanders were decimated, he observed their millions of Fate Lines fading away as universal laws would normally have them. But then he observed a portion of these Fate Lines- which were in the numbers of hundreds of thousands, go towards the monstrosity that had killed them!
He had to confirm this ridiculous possibility twice just to make sure he wasn't seeing an illusion, and he was met with the same scene when the 9th Infernal Lord changed into the tentacled monstrosity as well, his eyes peering through the veil seeing as he saw one of the shining Commanders fall as the scene of Fate Lines repeated itself again.
"You...you would bend the universal laws like so?! Haha! Ridiculous!"
