Chapter 779 Departure
Zatiel showed a large smile toward Ezequiel before looking at his body and shaking his head.
"Ahhh, you two, I understand why you went to battle, but could you not be a little more careful? Had I been in a different place, I would have found it hard to stabilize my wounds."
Ezequiel stared at the pit where the body had fallen. Everything in a radius of several billion kiloters had degraded into gray sand.
Zatiel Daybreak would not have sacrificed an innocent plane for his gain, but he did not have such reservations regarding the Second Circle of Hell.
Ezequiel focused on the bloody hole in Zatiel's stomach and grew embarrassed. During the battle with Venganza, he did not contain at all, and every one of his attacks was full of killing intent.
"Hahaha." Zatiel laughed as he saw Ezequiel's expression. He did not mind his wounds since, despite their gory look, none threatened his foundation and would heal given enough ti.
After that short laugh, Zatiel looked at Venganza, truly focusing on this one. Hundreds of years ago, when he created the Depravita Race, he only allowed their existence because he was sure they would remain mindless beasts forever weak against Will Force.
However, one of them evolved beyond the limits of his race and beca a truly transcendent existence.
"So, what should I call you? Venganza or Depravita Soul Incarnation?" There was a profound aning in Zatiel's voice as he made that question.
"I am the Depravita Soul Incarnation, and my na is Venganza. Nevertheless, I am not alone in this physical vessel. My friend, Ira, is also in here."
The phantom of the Depravita of Wrath manifested by Venganza's side and perford a small bow toward Zatiel before vanishing.
Zatiel saw no love in Ira's gaze, which made sense considering how he treated this one, but there was respect. The Depravita of Wrath knew it ca to existence thanks to him, so there was gratitude in its eyes.
Depravita were supposed to be sociopathic life forms incapable of emotions like friendship or kindness, yet both Venganza and Ira showed them after they transcended.
"The one thing I am not is Zatiel Daybreak," Venganza spoke those words with complete calm, but they surprised the Neo-Demon Ancestor.
All those mories of his ti as Venganza remained in Zatiel's mind. That made sense, as they were the sa entity during that ti.
After his samsara reincarnation, the core of Zatiel's existence beca his True Na that resided in the Inner Universe held inside the brain. After Venganza left the body, erging as the essence of his existence in the form of that bloody humanoid, the old Zatiel returned.
Even after Venganza and he beca separate entities, the Depravita of Revenge should still see himself as Zatiel Daybreak, just like the Primordial Body Incarnation. Yet, it seed that was not the case.
"I was born from your burning desire for revenge, but after my evolution, I beco much more than that. I already started to see myself as soone different even before leaving that body, and that feeling is only greater now." The Depravita of Revenge made a slight pause at that point as the light on his eye beca stronger.
"My ego is mine alone. I know since I see your goal of transforming this universe into a utopia as foolish. In my eyes, the strong have the right to decide their path, and their word is the law."
Venganza saw how a sharp light appeared in Ezequiel's eyes as he said that.
"Don't mistake my words. Every life form is unique and has an infinite potential for evolution. However, only those that risk their lives in lucky chances and use everything they have to beco stronger have the right to a life free of fear and full of happiness." Venganza's aura grew even more potent.
"If the person at the top seeks to devour everything to achieve a higher stage, that is fine. All their hard work and effort through countless years gave them that right. I don't see good or evil. Only power and choice."
Zatiel had to admit that Venganza had transcended the limits of his nature. He considered all life forms worthy of embarking on the path of power but only acknowledged those that never stopped advancing and always strived for more.
There was nothing Zatiel could say about that ntality since it was sothing almost every powerhouse, including the Justice Primarchs, had.
"I see. Honestly, I don't care where your path of power guides you, as long you don't get in the way of my vision."
An eerie silence reigned in Dis after Zatiel uttered those words but did not last long because Venganza nodded. In the Depravita of Revenge's mind, if Zatiel beca the strongest of all, he had the right to implent his utopia.
Zatiel took a deep breath after seeing Venganza nod. He did not want to add the Depravita of Revenge to his list of enemies, especially not now.
"Since now that is out of the way, should we continue fighting to determinate the Neo-Demon Race's Leader?"
Ezequiel's eyes widened as he heard Zatiel's words, and his body grew tense when he stared at Venganza. Luckily, there was no need for concerns.
"There is no need. The Neo-Demon Race would choose you, and the idea of guiding billions doesn't interest . I will explore the universe to carry on with my evolution." Venganza had just finished talking when an image ca to his mind. A complicated expression appeared on his face as he spoke to Zatiel.
"Before I leave, I would like to see her."
Zatiel stared at Venganza for a mont before waving his hand, making a black coffin appear. It opened, showing the body of a beautiful blue-haired woman with a gorgeous smile on her face.
Venganza's ego was unique, and so were his emotions. His love for Sophia was born along with Zatiel's desire for revenge. None of them should affect him anymore, yet he could not help but show a sad smile as he gently caressed her face.
Still, the Depravita of Revenge did not dwell on those emotions for long, and his gaze grew solemn.
"The Final War is coming. I will help you, but I will not die for this universe." Venganza said nothing more before waving his hand, bringing Final Dawn out of Eternal Nightmare and vanishing.
