Chapter 881: Two Powerful Beings.
“What’s your name?” Shiva asked.
“God of Destruction…” The Elder God with a grotesque appearance that seemed to come straight out of a horror movie, spoke with an emotionless tone of voice that intimidated all those with weak hearts.
Unfortunately, the man in front of this Elder God was not a weak-hearted Being, and his appearance did not provoke anything in Shiva.
“Why do you want to know my name?”
“So when I destroy you, at least one person will remember you.”
The Elder God’s eyes shone, and in the next moment, a gigantic blast of Fire shot out of his mouth towards Shiva.
Shiva raised his eyebrow: “Well, that was rude.” He flexed his Power a little, and the Energy of Destruction expanded around him, destroying the Fire and reducing it to nothingness.
“My name is Nur, The God of The Elements.”
“Mm, your name will be remembered by me.” Shiva nodded in a bored manner.
“…Die!” Nur started attacking him with his Elements. He knew he couldn’t touch him because if he did that, he would just be destroyed.
The reason for Shiva’s attitude? It was simple: he didn’t see how this God could be a challenge to him. Was that arrogance? No, it was just an undeniable fact.
Shiva did not consider himself an arrogant person. If he had fought with Victor or The Heavenly Father, his stance would be completely different. After all, both Beings had the capacity to resist his Destruction.
The Heavenly Father had the Concept of Creation within him, and Victor… Well, he didn’t know whether or not Victor had anything to counter his Destruction, but he wouldn’t underestimate him. Everyone knew very well what happened to those who underestimated Victor.
But it wasn’t just that. When Shiva looked at Victor, he couldn’t see a ‘clear’ way to his victory. As was shown in The Gathering of Supernatural Beings, he not only had a lot of Energy, but he also had an entire hidden civilization under him.
How many more secrets did Victor hide? As long as Shiva didn’t know the extent of it, he wouldn’t be 100% sure he could beat Victor.
While Shiva was absentmindedly thinking, Nur, Nightingale’s God of The Elements, threw several attacks at him.
Water, Fire, Air, Earth, Steam, Lava, Ice, Light, Darkness, all known Elements and their combinations, he threw at Shiva. The damage around Shiva was quite visible, but within Shiva’s sphere of influence, nothing passed, as everything was simply extinguished from existence.
The Concept of Destruction was second only to The Concept of The End. While the Destruction of Shiva destroyed everything to be used later by a God of Creation…
The Concept of The End deleted everything to never exist again.
Did this mean that Shiva was invincible? Far from it. He had weaknesses. The Concept of Creation could contradict him, as well as superior Divine Energies, such as Primordial Energy used by Primordial Beings, as well as Beings that had within them the Concept of The Beginning and The End.
Not only that, Beings that had an absurdly large supply of Negative or Positive Energy could also counter the effects of their Destruction. After all, Positive and Negative Energies covered all existing Concepts, including Beginning and End.
But it was impossible to find someone like this other than The World Trees. These Energies were exclusive to these unique Beings…
‘The Universal Rule of Energies is clear: first comes the Energy produced by The Primordial Chaos known as Primordial Energy that only Primordial Beings can use, then comes Negativity and Positivity that only The World Trees can use, then come the Concepts of The Gods whose Beginnings and Ends are at the top as the most important…’ Shiva touched his chin as he thought about it.
“DIIIIIIIE!”
“What?” A giant fist headed towards Shiva with a speed that didn’t match the creature’s size.
When the fist entered the area of effect of the Power of Destruction… The Being’s entire arm was destroyed.
“Don’t you realize this is useless?” Shiva asked, genuinely confused. “You have no qualifications to fight me. I’m not being arrogant. It’s just an undeniable fact.”
“It doesn’t matter-.” When Nur went to say something, he and Shiva looked toward Victor’s presence, which had suddenly disappeared.
“…It seems like it has started, huh.”
“What did you do?” Shiva raised his eyebrow.
“Our plans went off the rails when you and that foreign woman joined the war, but the plan still continued. From the beginning, the target was always Victor Alucard… That abomination needs to be eliminated.”
‘Were it so easy… Many others would have done it already if that were the case.’ Shiva thought. Victor was built with a monstrous talent that became even more refined each time he went through difficulty. If these Beings were not able to eliminate him with this trap, one thing was certain:
‘He would come back stronger than ever.’
ROOOOOOOOOAR!
Several roars of furious Dragons were heard in the distance, and Shiva looked toward WarFall and saw the damage the women were doing.
His spine chilled slightly when he saw Jeanne use small traces of Primordial Energy in her attacks. ‘What scary women…’
Little did he know that Jeanne wasn’t even trying to use this Primordial Energy and was simply leaking it out naturally because of her anger.
Seeing the destruction caused by women, he assessed that if these women went berserk in his Pantheon, nothing would be left. Their Gods were not as strong as them.
‘And he even has more True Dragons in his Faction.’
“…I think it’s time to do my job.” Shiva looked at Nur.
The Elder God felt that his Existence was being judged by this God.
“As a favor, I will make sure you don’t feel anything.” The pressure in Shiva’s body began to increase drastically.
“Any last words?”
“You are a hypocritical God of Destruction; you act like a God of Justice, but in the end, just like all the other Gods, you are just a hypocrite.”
“…I agree with you…” Shiva spoke naturally. “I chose to sacrifice you so that I can have an alliance with a powerful Faction that will help not only my Pantheon, but everyone on the planet in the future.”
“Powerful enemies are coming, enemies from different Galaxies with strange resources and technologies, enemies that can even threaten me.”
“Mortals and Gods need to be united, and that won’t happen until some plagues are removed.”
“Choose the minority for the majority… Huh?”
“Exactly… Now, have a pleasant trip, Nur. I hope that next time, you will make the correct decision.” Shiva’s entire body was covered by the Power of Destruction until he flexed his presence.
His Power exploded in a controlled direction, reaching Nur’s entire body… An attack made using just his own presence, and that was enough to evaporate The Elder God from existence.
From the beginning, the Elder God never stood a chance. Looking at the particles in the sky that would eventually join Creation, Shiva thought. ‘I wonder how Kali can do this. Her very existence is becoming Destruction itself, and there will come a time when she will no longer be able to interact with anyone because her own Power will not allow it.’
The reason Shiva didn’t seek more strength was simple, a simple little thing that all Beings had.
Loneliness.
In his current state, if he stopped controlling his own Power, everything around him would be destroyed, and the Power of his Divinity did not even compare to Kali’s. He could not imagine how he would be able to spend thousands of years isolated in one place training. He didn’t have that ability. He loved his wife too much to do something like that.
“I think I should end my fight too.”
Shiva looked at Velnorah, who was once again with armor made of machines in her hands. He looked at The Elder God she was fighting and saw that he was trapped in a type of translucent blue barrier, unable to get out.
‘Can this be called a fight?’ Shiva wondered although he couldn’t judge much since his fight was similar to Velnorah’s. He was simply far superior to his opponent.
The woman opened her arms wide and closed them in the middle as if she were squeezing something invisible.
Suddenly, the blue barrier around The Elder God began to shrink at a frightening rate.
Shiva watched blankly as The Elder God’s entire existence was crushed to the size of a ball of flesh, and this included the Being’s very Soul.
‘… Scary woman and her weird technologies.’ He couldn’t tell if this Power was coming from her technology or if it was her own Power. He also couldn’t even see what kind of Divinity she had; the woman was simply a walking enigma.
‘Foreigner, huh…’ Shiva narrowed his eyes slightly at the woman but decided not to do anything. After all, she was an ally for now.
“How long were you keeping him in that barrier?”
“From the start,” Velnorah responded as she looked at the ball of meat and then placed that ball of meat into a device on her equipment, where it took out several other balls of meat.
“Why didn’t you finish the fight from the beginning?”
“I can ask you that same question, God of Destruction. Why didn’t you finish the fight from the beginning?” Velnorah looked at Shiva. She was standing completely straight in an alert stance like an experienced soldier who had been through thousands of wars.
“I was lost in thought.” Shiva was honest.
“I understand. I, too, was also lost in thought.” Velnorah nodded.
Shiva frowned slightly. He didn’t like the woman’s tone a bit, but when he tried to use his Power to further feel the things the woman was hiding, he was surprised when the woman appeared in front of him and placed her huge hand made of metal he doesn’t recognize on his shoulder.
And the most unbelievable thing was that he was still using his Divinity to protect himself, but the Destruction wasn’t doing anything to it.
“God of Destruction…” The woman’s giant metal hand squeezed his shoulder: “Don’t make me lose my temper. Let’s remain allies, okay?”
“…Just who are you?”
“My identity is of no interest to you.” She removed her hand from Shiva and placed both her hands in an upright position like a soldier.
She looked at Shiva with her eyes without lowering her head. “Just understand that for now, we are allies.”
She turned around, making her long blue hair toss back, and floated in the direction where Victor was fighting, and then she hovered a few CM away from the ground.
“Analysis.” She ordered in her mother tongue.
[Analyzing…] Several holograms appeared in front of her.
[… Recognizing… Identifying… Found. Energy trail leads to sector 9.99999999….]
Seeing the infinite nine appearing in front of her, Velnorah dispersed the screen and narrowed her eyes. ‘How is someone from this low Sector able to access the edges of the expanding cosmos?’ Unlike Earth, Nightingale’s planet was a still developing Sector.
Velnorah was increasingly surprised by the capabilities of the Beings that were connected to planet Earth.
‘The only Being I remember capable of doing a similar feat was a Space God… Is the Leader’s Divinity related to Space in some way?’ As Velnorah thought, she remained in an upright position, staring blankly at a specific location.
She didn’t care at all about the fight around her or Shiva’s gaze… She didn’t even care about Haruna and Vlad’s fight, which was getting more and more dangerous. Unlike Shiva and her, Haruna and Vlad did not have a Power that completely surpassed The Elder God.
She didn’t even care about the fact that by killing The Elder God and turning him into a ball of meat, she completely stopped The Elder God’s monster production.
For Velnorah, the most important thing now was to understand the phenomenon that only Space Gods had managed to achieve in her Galaxy.
