Chapter 283 Taboo Thoughts, Ragnarok III

And he also did not wonder why said God was not here to oversee the appearance of a Transcendental God within their family, or if the target in question was not part of them.

He did not even guess what was going on, as answers would soon come to him in no time at all. That was what he believed, it was what he knew would happen.

With a single leap, he moved throughout the distance between both parties, appearing before Altria like a phantom. He was so fast, it felt like he just miraculously, and, instantly manifested right before her.

The current Rules of the God Realm were not limiting God in just perception only, but through their Stats and Skills. One's Speed and Strength were likewise limited.

The current Realm Density was so dense that, a person with the Strength of a thousand Universes, could only manifest a single ton of Might. It was the same for Speed.

Millions of light years per second, was only a single mile per second. Speed was a difficult factor than Strength. But one could still imagine to what extent Realms were, above Realities.

The God Realm was also being forged to become something that no Mortals or Beings below the fifth League, could Traverse within. The weight alone could kill them.

But once again, that was not important. What was important was that, even with such limitations, even Demigods could still literally dominate the Realm.

Let alone a Transcendental such as himself. The distance that was thousands of miles was easily ignored, as he crossed it all in just a couple of milliseconds.

He did not even have to use a Skill or any of that, despite being one of the very few beings good with manipulate Space, Distance and Speed.

...!!!

"Greetings." He calmly spoke, as Altria instinctively reacted by pushing herself backwards, and attempting to distance herself from him.

But to her horror, she only came to learn of the terrifying prowess of the God before her. Space around her body was locked down, as it was made so vicious that, even a Peak Minor God such as herself found it hard to move even an inch further.

She also felt like she was a single point, or line on a piece of drawing, where there was no concept of distance or motion. She had the misconception of being the only thing within the soroundung region!!

"There is no need to run now... I am only curious about a few things. And if you hopefully answer them truthfully, I will spare your life." The Transcendental God calmly spoke, as his hands casually went behind him and his posture was relaxed.

He clearly resembled a human, but his eyes had no pupils, and seemed like blackholes, as they seemed to suck everything within. His skin was also grayish, and he had very small ears.

"...."

Looking at him, Altria could guess who he was. He was the Transcendental God that ruled over the passage way to, and from the whole Realms.

Of course, powerful beings such as Supreme Gods and those above could travel through Realms without his Passages, but the others could not. Not even other Cosmic Gods.

But that was not enough to make him arrogant. After all, those guys above could just replace him anytime they so desire, thus he still had to do as they please.

Anyway, there was no Cosmic God here, thus he was free to do as he pleased. As for his personality? He was not ruthless, but he was also not kind.

Whether she spoke or not, her fate might still be the same. Not because of hatred or the likes, but because she was a Monster Goddess, and if he did not kill her, people might start gossiping.

He was from the Light Camp after all.

"What... do you want?" But she still asked nonetheless. Honestly, if it was any other God, she would have said what they wanted to hear, and leave.

But can one trust those self-righteous fellows from the Light Camp? Could a Monster really bet their life upon their hands? That was completely stupid and idiotic. She couldn't trust them as a former human, why now, as a Monster?

"Nothing much." The Transcendental Nexus God, a Perfected Transcendental close to becoming a Cosmic figure, casually replied. He was completely relaxed.

"I was just curious why there is a commotion occurring here." He added after a moment of silence, and admiring of the beautiful facial features of Altria.

As for his thoughts on her, that was for him and only him. He might be interested, he might not be. It was not important right now, what was important was information.

As a person who is good with manipulating Distances, as he had the highest level of [Distance Manipulator] Divine Skill, he knew what great of a feat it was to perceptionally change the internal distance of an area.

Especially so, If someone like himself, could not see through said distance. The opponent was definitely using a Skill of a similar level, whilst they were either at the same level of power as him, or even stronger.

Or maybe he was governing over a Transcendental Law that delt with Distance, Illusion or even Space. No matter which, it would explain everything.

But these were his guesses, he still needed to know the truth of the matter. And answers might just be before him... Yes, might, and not necessarily so.

"I don't know... why... why do you think I am here then... and not inside?" Altria was cornered and helpless, but she did not back down. She had a husband she did not respect who was at the same level of Power.

At this point, she might just have Talent of going against Perfected Transcendental Gods, and acting all defiant. Of course, she knew that this man was not Alton, and could easily kill her.

"Is that so?" The man himself casually inquired, as his gaze moved from her face to her chest, which was hurriedly, but calmly averted towards the forest.

"Yes..." Altria forced such a word out calmly, as deep down, she was still afraid that death was her destination. But another part of her, her instincts, told her that this man might not necessarily kill her.

"May I ask why your people have done nothing about any of this... even after suching a commotion." He once more pursued the matter, unwilling to just leave like this.

"...."

Altria kept her silence, as she did not know what Alton was thinking. From her perspective, he might just be scared, but she could not outright say that about him.

She also had a bit of Pride as a Vampire, after being one for so many years. Of course, she still hated Alton. She also did not want to answer by saying she did not know or the likes.

That would seem more like she was being defiant, and protecting Alton's ego. And she might just die for that... that would be quite humiliating for her.

"...I see." The man spoke and held his hand towards her forehead. Throughout the whole conversation, he was apathetic and calm, no emotion within his tone nor actions.

"...Are you going to kill me now?" Altria questioned helplessly. He gave her drooping eyes a last glance as he sighed, channeling Reiki with his hand.

"My apologies. My name is Ryan, the Transcendental Nexus God. Safe trip." His hand suddenly manifested spatial ripples which converged on her face, and instantly...

Bang!!

Blew her head apart. It did not even hurt her one bit, as he chose Instant death over anything else. He then helplessly watched as her body, that was now released from its restrictions slowly fell.

He waved his hand, making the body disappeared from his view, along with the imploded golden blood that was drifting within the sky.

He then glanced at his hand, ripples waving through his deep, black, bottomless eyes before vanishing. He then turned to look at the forest, and targeted the other Gods.

One way or another, he had to know what was actually going on here. As for this little occurrence, honestly, he did not want to think much about it.

"...."

Meanwhile, just as God Ryan targeted the other Origin Gods that sorounded the enigmatic forest that even he could not decipher, at a place far, far away, spatial glitter suddenly flashed into existence, only to vanish later.

And in replacement, was the perfectly intact body of a Vampire Goddess. She stared at the sky in wonder, amazement and perplexity.

She was not amazed that she was alive and perfectly intact, no, that was obvious. As a Vampire, she originally had insane healing abilities, and the trait of being Immortal.

But as she grew into a Higher Existential being, those traits changed and evolved into something quite terrifying. The racial traits do not disappear when one gets stronger, instead, they evolve.

And Vampires insane healing abilities evolved into something similar to Instantaneous regeneration. No matter what is done, cut their heads off, blow them to bits or even dice them Infinitismally...

No matter what you do, or how you do it, they would instantly be restored to perfection. And by instant, it meant literally transcending time ratio such as microseconds and nanoseconds.

Maybe even picoseconds. After all, for Gods, Time was quite fragile. The amount of things they could do in just a single picosecond, a trillionth of a second, was a lot.

If they so wished, some could build entire civilizations within that much time period... manually at that. What was time to them then, when they were already beyond it?

But Instant regeneration, was still instant regeneration. But it was not their most fundamental power as Higher Existential Vampires.

It was actually the ability to never die, no matter how they are killed. Even if they are erased, they could completely still survive... with a 100% chance of success.

Of course, some special cases were still there, but even Divine++ Skills would not work much on them. Most probably only those with a higher level Divinity could bypass such restrictions, as long as the Higher Existential Vampire was off a lower one.

And if one knew the specific weakness of said Higher Existential Vampire, they could then be able to kill the target even with the use of Unique or Extra Skills.

And of course, nobody but herself knew her own weakness, not even Alton, nor her daughter Eve. Thus she did not believe that even a Transcendental God could kill her.

Which brought out the question; why was she amazed and perplexed? It was non other than the way that God Ryan treated her... which was, by far, different from the treatment she expected from a man.

Especially one from an enemy Pantheon. Because no matter how she thought about it, she could not understand one thing.

"What was wrong with his gaze? Did I perceive it wrongly, or did he just give me  a longing gaze?" Altria sat up as she thought, "But... he was quite cute. Though not as handsome as Alton, he is still more likable."

She turned her gaze to her sproundings, and realized that she was sent near the Blood Castle, that was ruled by the Vampire God, and the Central influence of this region.

"He is also kind... and caring?" Altria thought as she could easily see through God Ryan's facade. She knew that he knew about their special characteristics.

She knew that he knew that she was still alive. She knew that he purposely sent her body here right as he had killed her, which did not even take an instant.

She knew that everything was within his calculations. He only 'killed' her for show, as multiple eyes were watching. And even if they themselves also knew that she was not dead, what could they do if he faked ignorance?

As long long he at least tried, what could they do? After all, he basically did not spare her, and instead killed her, then sent her body back to their hideout as a message. But against all odds, she just survived.
