Although Kahn was dumbfounded and yearned to see and know more about his 'divine weapon!... after hearing from the future Kahn, he knew it was sothing that should not be revealed quite yet.
"To be honest... I want to show it to you but it will beco problematic when you find it.
In this tiline, I'm not even sure if the divine weapon will be compliant to you like it was to ." iterated future Kahn. "Why? Is it similar to Amaterasu?" asked Kahn.
He knew that the Divine Weapons of heroes were actually sentient beings who also had a will like a living person.
They could speak, think and even communicate reasonably despite being solely made to assist the Heroes to kill the Demon God.
"It's... complicated. You'd know when you finally et it." responded Martial Emperor with a helpless countenance. "Alright, I won't pry further. But I still want to know...
Why were these empires attacking the Rakos Empire instead of joining you in the war against the Demon God?" asked Kahn with a firm countenance as if he would not let it go.
Sigh!
"Ah, that is within acceptable spoilers so I'd tell you." said future Kahn after a slumped sigh.
"Because at this ti... I had killed the Hero of Sentience who ca after .
To him, losing Sleipnir to was like so sort of personal insult.
And after I absorbed his Divine Key... I was going to beco a Sovereign within a few months.
On top of it, since I didn't have an empire backing beforehand, I had an extra Apple of Eden for the instant breakthrough to higher ranks by 2 stages...
And added with the fact that the Hero of Sentience had killed the Heroine of Water, acquiring her Divine Key as well... I was sure to beco a Peak Saint within a year since all of us had our divine keys awakened and eaten the Apples of Eden.
It was also the main reason why Gideon, the Hero of Ti also tried to kill just so he could beco a Peak Saint himself.
It was just a few months later after this battle that I killed him and planned to return to the past." explained the Martial Emperor.
Kahn's eyes were left wide open again from the shock.
Now he finally understood why everyone was after future Kahn and attacked the Rakos Empire.
He had already seen how everyone coveted his divine key because he also absorbed one from the Hero of Fire. And given the fact that the Martial Emperor had 3 of them along with a spare Apple of Eden... it was worth going to war for even if they had to sacrifice billions of their soldiers for it.
Because a Peak Saint during the Great War would not only survive but also could kill the Demon God himself if they were lucky.
Rathnnar was a pri example of this. Just that he fought against the Heroes instead of the Demon God because they attacked the newly founded Rakos Empire a thousand years ago.
"Wait, one of those saints that their emperors and heroes were fighting you.
What happened to that?" asked Kahn curiously.
The future Kahn replied with a grim countenance.
"I killed them all."
Stunned!
Kahn was left speechless again after hearing this revelation. "Do you an you killed 6 Emperors, the kind that is usually 8th-stage saint rank beings along with 6 other chosen Heroes?" he asked in disbelief.
To his query... the Martial Emperor replied coldly...
"What of it? It's not that big of a deal."
Flabbergasted!
Kahn's figure turned ashen white from the shock.
The future Kahn was simply too OP to not even bother with killing so many powerful enemies as if it was a walk in the park.
"I couldn't absorb their cores and divine keys because my breakthrough to the 9th-stage saint was already on its way. I needed to abstain for at least another year before I could absorb more divine keys and beco a Demi-God at last.
I was so close to victory... but this fucker called Hero of Ti ruined it all for with his Ti-traveling mumbo- jumbo." spoke the Martial Emperor in a pissed-off tone.
Only now did current Kahn understand that his existence would have not happened or even be needed if the future wasn't filled with so many mishaps and plot twists.
If the future Kahn had enough ti, he would have possibly ended the war against the Demon God himself.
But because Anakin coming back in ti to kill him, he had to forgo all his plans and create counterasures for the new tiline where he chose different divine abilities and blessings for the new version of himself.
On top of it... he even arranged for God of Darkness and Kravel finding him Deities to turn his future subordinates into Apostles.
"Why did you go so far? Gathering Apostles must have been important for the future to the point that even after coming back in ti, you directly got God of Darkness and Kravel involved." asked Kahn with an expectant gaze.
Future Kahn nodded and responded...
"Now, you have so many Apostles and even my horse as your subordinates.
This is sothing I was severely lacking in the original tiline and even with the powerful allies I made, there were not even 10 people who could be helpful when facing the 12 Rakshsas.
You need to be an Apostle or have a high purity bloodline of a Godbeast at least to face even one of them on equal footing without dying."
"And now, you also have 12 of those powerful subordinates including the 4 you left in the Rakos Empire, 3 of which are in Kassandra's shadow to protect her.
Make use of those 4 later after you et her again and rge them with powerful creatures that you will be fighting in the future." stated the Martial Emperor firmly.
"I won't tell you who or what they are because it would be a huge spoiler for everyone... so just follow my instructions.
Not only yours but also the rise of your subordinates was set into motion the mont you chose those 3 divine abilities." instructed future Kahn.
"You were already on the verge of becoming a Demi-God. Even with the original tiline with your original divine abilities staying intact... You would have most likely won the war against the Demon God after you neutralized the Hero of Ti in the new tiline.
So why go to these extre asures?" asked current Kahn.
Because this was also the truth that many would not be able to see or think of in the present scenario.
Apart from getting rid of Hero of Ti when he attacked the original Kahn Salvatore during the Conclave of Heroes where the Transcendent Rune of Reminiscence would have activated, bringing the Martial Emperor back in ti with all his mories and knowledge of future monts intact... He seriously did not need to choose different divine abilities, get Kravel's blessings as the Apostle of War Deity, or even have other Deities turn his subordinates into Apostle.
Apart from a few events, as long as he got rid of the Hero of Ti, he was free to act on his own and gradually wait till the point he beca a full-fledged Demi-God.
So why did the future Kahn plan so many things beforehand and create this new tiline with the current Kahn where the two of them now faced each other?
"Because I saw how many limitations I had because I tried to do all things on my own.
And it was only after the Conclave of Heroes from the original tiline...
I learned that even after becoming a Demi-God; I wouldn't be able to kill the Demon God." revealed future Kahn with a somber tone.
"What?! Are you kidding ?!
Even a Demi-God won't be able to kill the Demon God?!"
asked Kahn with a baffled tone.
To his shocked countenance... the Martial emperor responded sternly...
"Listen... the only people both of us have in common in both tilines are Rathnaar, Romulus and the person who you will et in the future.
There was a 99% chance that you wouldn't be able to find and make a pact with Sleipnir because of the different divine abilities I chose for you.
And also..." spoke future Kahn and turned his head around.
His gaze landed on the massive Dragon behind his chair as he spoke to current Kahn...
"You did not et him in this tiline, instead you t Vildred.
These 4 taught everything I needed." he revealed.
"What Vildred is to you, is what Saalazaar is to ." he stated.
"Who is this Saalazaar?" asked Kahn in a curious voice.
He too wanted to know more about this Dragon who appeared along with the future Kahn as soon as the Rune of Reminiscene was activated.
"There were 3 brothers originally.
The eldest died 50 thousand years ago due to old age.
The second one was killed by Kravel 10 thousand years ago before he beca the War Deity.
And the youngest is still alive and guards the empire." spoke the Martial Emperor.
"Among them, I was the eldest." declared the dragon in a kingly tone.
"What do you an? Exactly who is he?" asked Kahn to the future Kahn.
But instead of the Martial Emperor, this dragon nad Saalazaar spoke...
"The divine is called Saalazaar Inbaris Sol Mortelix.
I'm the reason why we made you choose the Dinsional Law divine ability." declared the dragon in a firm tone as he started floating in the air.
"Back in my day, I was also called..." declared the Dragon with a domineering and majestic voice as he revealed his true identity...
"The Elder Dragon of Cosmos."
