Odyssey of the Blind God

728 Cease to exist



Returning to the Orion Shelter was pretty easy.

He could either return by using the already existing fissure, or he could dissolve the fissure that brought him to the Monster Dimension and create a new one at his position.

The former was something he would use if he were to desire to create a rift as he had to nourish the fissure, which could be done by repetitively using a fissure, while the latter was something for convenience's sake.

But before returning home, Nial spends the following week researching the humongous forest and surrounding regions. He wanted to know which resources he could harvest nearby and where to manifest the next fissure. Nial wanted to create a permanent rift to the Monster Dimension, but he was not yet sure where exactly.

The positioning was very important, and he didn't really want to mess it up. He was not sure how much time he had left before others would attack him once again.

Once he was done with his research, Nial dissolved the old fissure. He created a new one and returned to the Orion Shelter.

Nial was greeted by his friends and Devils once he returned. He analyzed the state of the Orion Shelter with his mana perception immediately and figured that the rebuilding process would take a while.

"The terra-forming group finished rebuilding the landscape. Not bad. They're quite fast," Nial said absent-mindedly while his head was turned toward the Royal Princess.

Evalyne smiled at him with an expression overflowing with pride. She flung her hair back while the corners of her lips curled upward.

"Of course. We are the best when it comes to terraforming. Don't ever underestimate us Elves!" She declared while taking a prideful stance, pushing her chest out.

"Yes yes. I never underestimated the Elves. But let's focus on the important things for now," Nial said light-hearted, perceiving the reports about the overall situation in the Orion shelter.

This included the declining population, the residents' complaints, the ever-decreasing amount of resources, and much more.

Nial didn't take long to deduct the current situation and he nodded his head.

"Look. We can enter the Monster Di—...." He stopped in his tracks all of a sudden and turned around.

The others looked at him in confusion before they realized the direction he focused.

Princess Evalyne opened her mouth to tell Nial what happened but Hana was faster. She took a step closer to Nial and grasped his hand, trying to distract him a little. 

Unfortunately, her attempts weren't fruitful.

"There is no need to worry, Nial. A few Assassin Heligav infiltrated the Orion Shelter while you were absent. They injured your sister lightly, but she killed them with the help of the Devils. Everyone reacted quickly, but we didn't want to worry you, so…" 

Hana had a lot more to say but she noticed a change in the atmosphere. Upon looking into Nial's face she realized that she made a grave mistake.

Nial was very overprotective. 

Sabrina disappeared after their mother had been killed, and Nial blamed himself a lot for that. He became stronger with the intention to protect his family to prevent something like that from ever happening again.

Thus, upon hearing that his sister had been injured, Nial's brain short-circuited. 

'I shouldn't have said anything. Can't I even put my words to use? Am I stupid?' Hana cursed herself while staring at Nial's expression with a tinge of worry.

Nial's face was full of anger and wrath. He could tell that Sabrina was doing fine and that she enjoyed being tended to by Mathias, however, that didn't mean it was fine to be attacked.

She had been attacked inside the Orion Shelter, and the Devils had nearly been too late.

Nial would never be able to forgive himself if something were to happen to his sister, not after everything that happened in the past.

He lost too many precious people to allow even one of them to disappear whether it was now or far in the future.

The mana around Nial trembled as the pressure he exuded increased drastically. Spiderweb-like cracks formed on the floor beneath his feet and they spread out further.

Hana and everyone else in the room found it more difficult to breathe. They stared at Nial with widened eyes as golden scales grew out of his skin.

Crimson Chaos and Reinforced Dark energy naturally responded to the golden scales and they fused together, forming a quad-colored armor.

Nial's presence changed altogether as the fusion of his energies and the golden scales was completed.

He disappeared from his earlier position, gathering some Devils in the following minutes before reappearing next to Shadow, the Origin Leviathan, whom Nial hadn't spoken to for quite a while.

"Buddy, I need you to bring me somewhere!" 

Shadow was happy to meet Nial again, but the God of Gluttony was not ready for a wholesome reunion. He was overflowing with anger, which was mirrored on his distorted face.

He was unwilling to leave the Heligav race alone, not anymore. He had been nice enough over the last few decades.

They killed his master and attacked the Orion Shelter. Was that not enough for them? Did they really intend to seal their fate, for good?

Nial was fine with that. After they attacked the Orion Shelter, he already considered them dead meat, either way.

He was not willing to leave them alone anymore. They were already dead in his opinion, either way.

Shadow noticed Nial's condition quickly. The Origin Leviathan stared at him, only for Nial to transfer various coordinates into the mind of his loyal Devil.

Shadow memorized the coordinates and he used the true potential of the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique, disappearing on the spot. Nial was dragged alongside, like usual.

In the following seconds, Nial was teleported to a savannah region far away from the Orion Shelter. A world bridge appeared in his visualized view and a devilish smile formed on Nial's face.

He had had enough of the Heligav so they might as well disappear from the Universe. 

They ought to cease to exist!
