Chapter 1006 Understanding My Own Power
(MC POV)
"Ah, so Daddy is looking for that Usurper?" Lilith asked while clinging to my side, trying her best to ignore Cai Hong who was clinging to my other side.
I nodded, "I locked him within this World itself, but he could be anywhere, maybe not even in this Plane."
"Hmm… Do you know what he looks like, Daddy?"
"Well, he took my form, so , I guess?"
"Oh! Then that's easy! Daddy can just search for the people in this World who look like you, right? You don't even need to--"
"MASTER?! WHO IS THAT?!!"
All of us turned to see two very angry girls glaring at Lilith. Needless to say, it was Lian Li and Manami.
Unperturbed by the hostile glares, Lilith turned to , "Daddy… Who are those noisy bitches?"
"DADDY?!!" They screeched, already marching up to her with lightning and fire cackling in their hands.
I raised up my hand, "Ok, ok, everyone calm down. Lilith here is a… Well… Umm… I guess you could say that I created her in the past."
That got them to stop in their tracks.
"Created?" Lian Li parroted, her eyes darting between and the demoness. "Did Master give birth to her?"
I waved my hand, "It's complicated. She's just here to help find soone who stole sothing from ."
"Ara, ara? Who is so daring to even dare to steal sothing from Master? Just point in that direction and I'll teach that trash a good lesson, Master~"
If it was the normal Manami saying that, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But for this version of Manami, her words sent a shiver down my spine.
The fact that her eyes seed to glow when she said that probably had sothing to do with it too.
"Ummm… There's no need for that. Have you two finished your runs?" I asked, trying to change the topic.
"Of course, Master!" Lian Li replied enthusiastically.
"In that case, you can begin your usual morning routines after your breakfast and if you do well, I'll give the two of you a reward."
"Ara? Is Master not joining us?"
"No, I still have so questions I want to ask Lilith here, I'll join you two later."
"Ufufufu~ I see… But if Master were to end up sleeping with her too… We may need to cut so people off…" She giggled, pulling out a knife from under her sleeve.
Why the hell does she have a knife under her sleeve?
With that said, the both of them left my room, their eyes never leaving until the door closed. At least I successfully deflected the topic away from Lilith…
I wanna go back ho already… Who knew that people would change so much from just a single ti travel event?
"What were you saying again, Lilith?" I asked, already trying to get this done and over with, completely regretting my decision of finding my disciples first.
"Unn… Like I said, Daddy can simply use your Origin to find anyone who looks like you within this World, you wouldn't even need to resort to looking for helpers at all. Heck, even if he changed his looks, you can just look for anyone with his concentration of Origin energy in them and you'll find him."
"Can I even do that?"
"Daddy… It's easier to list out things you can't do."
"Oh? So what can I not do?"
She giggled, "Well, nothing actually."
I frowned at her, "But I tried to use Origin to wipe that guy from existence but I couldn't do it?"
"If Daddy really wanted to, there's a lot of ways that you can… Ah… I don't think I'm supposed to talk about it."
"Why not?"
"This is… Well… Kind of taboo? There's the belief that the Universe might End if we talk about it or sothing. Like it's considered bad to even discuss the extent of Daddy's capabilities. So of us think it's just superstition but it's better to be safe than sorry, I guess?"
No, I can see why such a thinking might be established. If I were to be intimately aware of exactly what I can do, then there's a lot more ways that I might End the universe inadvertently.
This must have happened in so universes where the previous got an idea on how to manipulate Origin which resulted in the destruction of the universe of that ti. Thus, the thinking that giving more ideas on how to use Origin was thus made taboo.
Did the past intentionally limit my own understanding of my power to stop myself from destroying the universe, omniscience?
Apparently omniscience couldn't tell the answer either because there was no Origin for such an event either, so there's a high chance it never happened or I had removed the Origin of it entirely.
Thinking about it now, I don't even believe it's a good idea either. Doesn't this just make want to experint and in doing so, also create the possibility of ending the universe?
…
Oh… If that happens, then it's just decided it's simply the fate of that universe and I'll just move on.
To , universes being created and destroyed is just another thing that happens every other day apparently.
Ugh, I know why the past would feel so disconnected but I certainly don't want to end up like him.
I only just thought about the possibility for a mont and I could already co up with the idea of severing the flow of Origin tied to this World to flush him out, but that would also result in this entire World ceasing to exist.
Yeah, pretty dangerous stuff… Emotionless might have just done it without a second thought. Imagine that on a galactic scale, that's not going to be pretty.
I'm starting to feel just how big of a responsibility I have for having this power…
Actually, that's incorrect, it wasn't even a responsibility. I don't owe anyone anything. If I were to decide that the universe should End, then it will End and no one can tell otherwise.
Quite a scary thought.
Anyway, for now, let's just keep to the more ta idea of just searching for him. I have a feeling if I were to attempt anything else, I might just tear a hole in the space ti continuum which may or may not result in the entire universe resetting itself back to the very beginning.
I don't know why I feel like that's a possibility, but I think I shouldn't question my gut feeling.
Ok, now I just need to find the origin of anyone that looks like that currently exists in this World.
Instantly, I got one result which was pointing towards my room so I knew that was pointing to .
The second ping I got was… On the other side of the Sect?
No way… Seriously?
He had the whole entire World to hide in and he chose to hide within the sa Plane and even sowhere nearby?
Ok, I admit, they do say that sotis the most dangerous place is also the safest place and I certainly didn't go look for him around here, but was that really why he's here?
I guess… I should go there and say hello now?
