Chapter 318 – Interesting
Noah never thought that training could be so enjoyable. For him, training was never sothing he liked to do, especially if he rembered how his mother treated him when he was younger.
That training traumatized him.
But as he was training the Law of Providence, Noah was loving every mont of it.
There was sothing deeply enchanting in being able to control the lives of beings — he just had to sit in his training ground and use his Law to see all the fate, destiny, and causality threads of all beings inside Laeh.
With his current level of power, only Noelle succeeded at resisting his still-weak control of the Law — but beside her, everyone else was in his grasp… even his wives.
One day, while he was manipulating the threads — making people live a specific experience at a specific ti, or even kill so bad ones in a specific way — Noah sensed the birth of a new thread.
A new thread ant a new life.
Curious, he followed the thread and saw it ca from a boy that was born inside a hidden village that still decided to stay human and live the life of the mundane without searching for power.
A curious thing.
He observed the fate of the baby boy and saw that it was the most ordinary thread he had yet to see — his life was, by all accounts, mundane.
He would grow like any child, then marry a wife to leave a legacy while teaching them their culture, and then die of old age.
It was a normal life…but it was a peaceful life too.
It was one Noah shouldn’t have any business in changing.
But Noah couldn’t help but want to change it. He couldn’t help but want to see the effect on a whole village if he changed the fate threads of only one among them.
So, he did it.
And the first thing he did was use a technique he called ‘Guided Fortune’ by making sure the boy, whose na was Aeron, found — by pure coincidence, or so he thought — the dead body of an Elysiari of Ice.
This was Aeron’s first ti seeing a being so beautiful, yet also with an aura so cold and majestic it could freeze ti itself.
Driven by the curiosity any child had, Aeron searched the body and found a spatial ring that held all the belongings of the dead Elysiari, and that included special techniques and even treasures beyond his imagination.
Noah simply added that encounter inside Aeron’s thread but that encounter changed his whole fate, destiny, and causality in a way never imagined.
At that mont, Noah was deeply focused on Aeron and left all other threads he dedicated all of his ti watching and analyzing the transformation brought by that encounter, but also the ones he added here and there.
Aeron changed completely, his intellect improved, and so did his ambition.
He began to see the people of his village as old-tirs, backward and ignorant, and he wanted to change them, to introduce them to the higher world, to make them see the infinite possibilities that existed outside the confines of their little village.
Needless to say, it was not easy. And can you imagine how difficult it is to change the culture, the traditions, and the beliefs of other people?
Let tell you, it’s nearly impossible.
They were simply humans, and humans didn’t like change.
Because change ant leaving the things you are used to do, to feel, to believe… for sothing entirely new, sothing entirely dark and unknown.
And what’s scarier than the fear of the unknown?
So, without any surprise, they resisted — profoundly — the change brought by Aeron.
And thus, Aeron started the struggle for power inside his own village. He was strong, yes, but by only teaching himself, his rank was still low, and he didn’t want to hurt his people with force.
He wanted them to understand his vision… not to force them into submission.
By then, already years had passed, and Noah didn’t budge, he was still watching like a film the life of a man in one hidden corner of his world, a man he had influenced.
But he didn’t just watch, because by using his Law so delicately, his control and understanding increased further, making him able to create a second technique called ‘Causality Chains’ and he used it on Aeron by saying,
“If you lose the battle of authority, you will find a way out of this situation.”
It was simple, but it was heavy.
After that, Noah didn’t make Aeron win, he just observed and by the end, the people indeed won and succeeded in imprisoning Aeron for his heretical thoughts and words.
And that was the turning point.
Noah didn’t specify ‘the way’ out of that situation and he didn’t say Aeron would receive an old spirit grandpa to help him, nor a hidden overpowered sword, nor any of those cliché things.
But it looked like fate loved cliché thing, because in that dungeon, Aeron found a secret door that would lead him to a being… a being Noah even forgot still existed.
A vampire.
Or more accurately, a dried-up woman vampire who needed blood otherwise, she would remain in that droughted state forever.
“How interesting…” Noah comnted, his eyes shaped by threads woven into a swirling ball, twisting endlessly as he studied the thread of Aeron.
Noah couldn’t put into words what he was feeling. It was too grand, too beautiful to even describe.
What he was seeing right now was truly… the power of a god, the power to influence the very life of a being and to know that by influencing that single thread, millions or even billions of other threads would be affected in return.
Because when Aeron’s thread changed… the whole village’s threads changed, but not only that.
The locked-up vampire’s thread changed, causing millions of other threads to be altered.
So alterations were small, others moderate and others were grand and ga-changing.
And by understanding these notions, Noah created another technique called ‘Destiny’s Anchor’.
At that ti, eighteen years had passed but now, with his level of power, these numbers of years might as well be considered just a few hours, because his perception of ti was now very different.
And after those eighteen years — with the help of the vampire who transford him into a vampire, a very special one at that, and trained him to use his power over blood but also over bloodline — Aeron beca sothing unhinged and powerful, and in no ti, he put all the people under him with force because after being locked up, he understood that sotis… force might be the answer.
Noah closed his eyes at that point, reflecting on all he had seen. He had followed Aeron from the mont he was born until he beca the uncontested ruler of his village and was about to go out and experience the world.
It was a thrilling and interesting feeling to watch the life of a person as if reading a novel, and you can’t help but feel attached in so way.
And this made him wonder…
‘Are there people reading his life like a novel?’
Did they influence any of his actions or even encounters? Or even his own power?
He wondered what they would say about his life…did he live it in a way that was… worthy? Enjoyable?
Did he beco soone worth rooting for… or just so insufferable bastard?
At that thought, he laughed.
“I bet it would be the second option… if there was anyone.”
But even so… to still read his story until this point…
That…
That deserved so thank you, right?
And here, Noah suppressed a soft smile before shaking off all those thoughts and continuing his training.
