Pov Urd:
I could only see that planet from afar when Zenos left. Beside was Yaffe, who was just there to observe with a big smile, yet I saw a different aning in her eyes.
"What are you really waiting for?" ()
"I've been to many universes, studied forbidden arts and ancient texts, all to perfect my curses." (Yaffe)
"What does that have to do with your presence here?" ()
"I've been by Zenos's and my sweet Hades' side for months, I've seen their ways and overheard a thing or two." (Yaffe)
"I know the secret about the Bearer of Chaos, I also know about the Paradox Entity." (Yaffe)
"..." ()
"You don't need to look at like that, I'm not an enemy, I have enough brains to know who to ss with, but I won't deny that I'm taking advantage of all of you." (Yaffe)
"Why are you being so direct now?" ()
"Because, aside from the Twin Entities, it seems none of you can comprehend what's about to happen; the scale of what's about to happen goes beyond what you imagine." (Yaffe)
"I need to see it with my own eyes, I need to witness your rebirth if the legend is true!" (Yaffe)
I could see the emotion on her Serpent face; her eyes seed almost fanatical, her aura radiating happiness and expectation.
It seems she expects sothing to happen and is certain it will. I don't understand what she's talking about, and yet her words imply that the Twins know exactly what will happen.
I know about Paradox, I know about the secret of the Chaos Bearers. Zenos was honest about these things with all of us, yet it seems that everything known about it is only a part of the truth according to Yaffe's words.
"Which legend are you talking about?" (I)
"In a universe that was divided in two, with half of it contaminated by a colossal curse, I spent 82 years studying there, traveling only through the cursed half, alone in my studies as I journeyed between planets and stars abandoned to life." (Yaffe)
"In a temple of a Deity who had already died, I found a forbidden library full of dangerous knowledge that that religion tried to keep safe from evil hands." (Yaffe)
"I spent another 7 years reading everything in that library, focusing first on the various forbidden arts in the hope that they would be useful for my curses, only after that did I begin to read the varied texts without practical use." (Yaffe)
"That's when I found the scroll; it looked new as if it had been recently written, but the ink contained traces of the Concept's power, it was the Concept of Truth, it was a scroll of a forgotten truth." (Yaffe)
"On it were written few things." (Yaffe)
"In a land bathed in Chaos, when the Bearer rises and the Flas of Reincarnation are grasped, she who sleeps in her own Eternal seal will walk into existence once more." (Yaffe) ȑἈ𐌽ȰᛒËs̩
"..." ()
These words seem like a aningless enigma, but when placed alongside everything that happened, it becos clear that it represents what happened here.
"You may not understand, but Chaos is the true origin of the Curse. I always suspected it, but I never found proof, and now I have the chance to ask the origin of all chaos!!!" (Yaffe)
"It's not certain yet that it will happen..." ()
"I know, but even so, an important step will be taken! I need to see it!!!" (Yaffe)
"(Paradox will return now...?)" ()
I was confused by this possibility, but I couldn't waste ti on it when the battle began. Even from afar, I could still see the blue and black explosions from a distance, and I could feel the Laws around the planet trembling.
With my strength and control over this entire universe increasing every day, it was easy to focus my senses to see everything that was happening on that planet.
I saw Zenos summon that creature of flas, I saw their direct combat unfold without understanding why they fought so lightly, but I soon understood when I saw their mastery over their powers increasing; they were training their power in the midst of a life-or-death battle.
Sothing like this was unthinkable, but even such a light combat caused a lot of destruction in the area of the planet where they were, which proved to be nothing compared to what happened next.
They both unleashed their true capabilities, and the combat escalated to many levels above; now their battles were not just causing calamity in one area, they were literally devastating the entire planet.
The oceans caught fire, mountains were crushed into craters, forests were reduced to ashes, the Laws were shattering like fragile glass, and space itself was being torn to pieces, opening fissures in the universe.
"(This is bad, I can feel Creatures of the Abyss on the other side trying to cross over...)" ()
"< Universal Divine Law: Talisman of the Dinsional Seal >" ()
I created a Talisman consuming half my power and using a bit of my Concept of Divine Laws. I am becoming more and more familiar with my own power; creating the Talismans of Divine Law is becoming easier with ti.
I launch the talisman, which pierces the dinsional mbrane, gathering a great amount of power from reality. Then, on the other side, the Talisman shatters into pieces, creating a Law Rune symbol surrounded by 7 wings that protects this area of the universe. "(With that, no matter how many rifts open, I won't let any of them pass, I just hope the Abyss Generals don't appear.)" ()
After dealing with that problem, I saw the end of the battle as the planet was completely reduced to pieces floating among the fragnts of space.
I saw Zenos devouring that creature and his Aura igniting in blue flas as he closed his eyes for several minutes before returning to normal. It was only then that I began to process all this calamity before going to him.
"(I need to make him rest, if he continues to exert himself like this, a tragedy could happen.)" ()
-----------------------
Pov Zenos:
"I need to rest..." ()
While I felt relieved to have one less enemy, Urd suddenly appeared in front of . She grabbed my shoulder and pulled away, soon I was back in her Temple.
"Is it over...?" (Urd)
"Not yet... I still have Ayden and Guerra to face..." ()
I'd like to say it's over, but I can't do that yet with such a dangerous enemy lurking around, now only they remain.
"How's the ss I left behind?" ()
"We'll take care of it, for now just rest." (Urd)
Without saying anything more, Urd turns and leaves hurriedly. I, who was sitting on the sofa, felt the accumulated fatigue finally get the better of as my consciousness fades into my dreams.
------------------------
When I thought I had fallen asleep from exhaustion, suddenly my eyes opened once more, but now I was surrounded by flas, blue flas everywhere, and yet I felt no heat.
"Don't worry, that bird won't vote." (Paradox)
"We are not in my mind nor in my Soul." ()
"Where did you bring ?" ()
"This is the seal that keeps asleep, the Flas of Reincarnation are burning the seal at this very mont, I am rely a part of Paradox while the greater part of her is sleeping behind the seal we are standing on." (Paradox)
"..." ()
I look down, but there are only blue flas, I can't see anything and my senses don't go that far, I don't understand what is happening below.
Looking ahead I see only the usual silver bandages, now they seem completely ethereal and erge as a mist of energy in the form of bandages around a female figure hidden inside. "What do you want?" ()
"I cannot make a choice, my Will must be neutral so as not to activate the Concept of Paradox, breaking the seal would cause everything to be lost." (Paradox)
"I need you to make a choice." (Paradox)
"What choice?" ()
"Between being nourished by Paradox, who is still asleep, and thus inheriting everything from her upon being reborn as a new being... or being assimilated by her, forcing an evolution and transforming her into a new being..." (Paradox)
"Is the choice mine?" ()
"Yes." (Paradox)
"Does it change anything for ?" ()
"No." (Paradox)
"Your Will will initiate the Transition State, and this will be our step to erge again after you beco a Complete Entity." (Paradox)
"I understand, then I choose... the third option." ()
I heard what she said and understood what she was seeking, how a part of Paradox had already beco independent with its own mind and soul, yet she didn't ask to choose her.
Soone manipulative and selfish, but at least I know her. The one who sleeps is completely unknown; she could be worse or better than the one in front of , so why do I have to choose soone?
My Will arose on its own from within , sinking into the surrounding flas that beca Starfire. It was as if a universe was ablaze around , burning even the one in front of along with her bandages; only I was excluded from these flas.
"Why would I choose the options of others? Why do I have to choose between you and her?" ()
"The two were one to begin with, so why not beco one again!?" ()
"Two becoming one, doesn't that fit better with your Paradox!" ()
"Hahahahaha..." (Paradox)
"Hehehehehe..." (Paradox 2)
Suddenly two sets of laughter erupt simultaneously, one coming from in front of while the other is below , but before I could understand what was happening, the voices speak in unison as my mind goes blank once more.
"< Rebirth of Chaos: Primordial Transition State >" (Paradox / Paradox 2)
