I tried to fight back, but the gigantic hands didn't let go, and I felt powerless, unable to fight back against this being. Before long, I was left there, grabbed like a toy, as its single eye stared at , burning through my very being with his eternal, radiant light.
"Yes, yes, you're so fascinating up close! Your very existence is so full of rich Causality. Your very bloodline is special! You're probably the best thing that has co out of Yggdrasil ever!"
"…Who are you?"
As I stared at the eye, slowly, sothing erged from the eyeball, countless tiny, winged eyes rged together, taking the form of a humanoid.
"Fine, I'll show you a form you can properly understand, this is how I looked like when I was a human."
FLUOSH!
A slender young man with short white hair appeared, big golden eyes and long white eyelashes greeted , wearing a completely white suit.
He sat down over his own gigantic palms, staring at while crossing his legs with a pleased, yet creepy smile.
I was nothing but a toy to him.
"Oh no, you're not a toy. I recognize your importance in the universe, I wouldn't have personally co to greet you… and warn you ahead of ti."
"Warn ?!"
"That fight with little Pandemonium and little Chaos was really great. I never imagined there could be soone that could deal with them like you and our friends did… Well, aside from , hahah!"
"Aside… from you?"
Wait a second…
The only one that could defeat them properly.
The only one that fragnted their bodies and sealed them…
He's…
One of the "Originals" like Chaos and Pandemonium.
The one that allied the Gods, and that mysteriously disappeared after Chaos and Pandemonium were dealt with…
"You're…?!"
"I suppose you've figured out already? You're smart."
Suddenly, dozens of hands erged from his shoulders and back, forming into feathered, yet bizarre wings, with hundreds of golden eyes.
His entire being was eldritch, and also sacred, holy, and divine…
A being beyond Chaos and Pandemonium.
"I am Oblivion."
The strongest of all the Originals, he's right in front of .
No, not just the strongest, the very first of them that the Ancient Gods summoned!
While Pandemonium and Chaos contained the Primordial Concepts of Demons and Chaos within them.
Oblivion probably embodies sothing even greater, sothing… even higher!
"My Primordial Concept? A power I was given when I was reincarnated here… So many eons ago… You know what the Ancient Gods did back then? It wasn't just "Summoning", they were playing with the very Laws of Reality. They were trying to weaponize them, to create a weapon, a tool to go against their own Mother. And at the end, their very greed beca their demise. Funny, right?"
"The very laws or reality…? What are you talking about?"
"You saw that in the mories of that man, right? The man whose soul I helped reincarnate many thousands of years later… Well, there was sothing that caused… a big problem for them, the Quantum Gate. Let's say the Ancient Gods tried playing with such power, and just like their predecessors, they failed again, bringing destruction to themselves and this world."
"T-That's…! The Quantum Gate…! Then is Yggdrasil really… from Earth?! Wait, she's the tree created from the crystals of that entity that ca from the Dinsion they opened?! The one that caused everything?! Don't tell …!
"Well, well, well, you're about to untap all the mysteries and secrets! But that wouldn't be fun, right? So let's leave it at that for now."
"No! Please tell what happened! What are the Ancient Gods really?! Are they truly just mythological beings?! It feels like they were far different to what people rember them as!"
"They're long dead… well, except for two of them. But that doesn't matter right now."
"Except for two of them…?!"
"Enough, Drake. I will not answer more questions. You will now listen to , okay?"
He lifted my chin with his small hand, smiling at , approaching his face, our eyes t.
This guy was weird.
"You're the first person to say I'm weird… Hahaha…"
He quickly let go of , his hands moving away, I was freed, flying in the middle of the skies, glancing at him.
I knew I was better off just listening, fighting would be pointless.
And he doesn't seem to have any intentions of harming either…
"I don't, really. Be at ease. I will now give you the warning I ca here exclusively to tell you."
"…"
"Your precious little world is in peril again. A peril I will not save them for once more. I am done with Yggdrasil. I am creating brand new worlds, beautiful and wonderful ones."
"…You can do such a thing?"
"But I still have so fondness to Yggdrasil, specially for what's coming later on… I would prefer if that world remained… well, alive. The Dinsional Upheaval is coming after all. I would rather have this world and Spiritias intact."
"…Spiritias?"
"A Fragnt of Heaven, a little, adorable thing. You don't have to worry about that for now. Relax."
"Huh?"
"Your battle against Pandemonium and Chaos triggered a great cataclysm in Yggdrasil. Fate is soon about to shatter, the Venerables are all going to revive very, very soon. But that should be the last of your concerns. The Dinsional Break opened the way for another world to begin to rge with this one."
"What?!"
"…Actually two worlds. No, three!"
"Eh?!"
"The third won't appear for a while though, relax. But those two are worlds you're quite fond of… no, actually, just one. The other… I think that fluffy eared girl is fond of. What is her na? Yuki?"
He knows of her? He knows everyone!
Is this creepy bastard spying on all of us?!
"You're not the first to call a "creepy bastard", so that's nothing new to ."
"What are these worlds you're talking about?!"
"You'll find out once you look at them! They're about to appear everywhere."
"E-Everywhere?!"
"Yeah! But this doesn't exactly an this world is dying, you simply triggered the Dinsional Upheaval ahead of ti… when world as big as Yggdrasil, which is already connected to other worlds begins to die, it begins to attempt sothing… to repair itself, even if it has to use other worlds. This is how Yggdrasil was able to remain alive after the Realms died one after another, using them to expand itself, to patch itself up."
I can't believe this, just when we finally finished such a huge battle, sothing even worse is coming?!
"But yes, there's plenty of chaos… It is the beginning of the end as so might say, I am excited for this new beginning that you and the others will shape. I wonder if it'll be a future you shape, or that Oberon or the others create? I can't wait!"
"…"
Those two other worlds… It's fairly obvious what they are.
A world I am fond of… Earth.
And a world Yuki is fond of, Zipangu!
Shit…
"So you figured it out! Good. Get ready, from here on, it's the end ga."
"Is this all a ga to you?"
"Maybe."
"…"
"Oh! Don't look at like that! I did a good thing! I told you about it, so don't say I didn't help later."
"…You barely helped."
