Chapter 308 306- The Origin of the Gods

Chapter 308 306- The Origin of the Gods  "The other gods? There are so many gods—"

"Oh, come on. Obviously, I am talking about the gods responsible for this.." Zach glanced around while spreading his hands and said, "God's Impact."

Aria looked into Zach's eyes and asked, "How much has Erza told you?"

"Not much. She has told me things about you and her, but not the questions I am asking you. Besides, I was a kid at that time, and I had no interest in anything other than the stories with happy endings," Zach responded with a soft scoff but a distant smile on his face.

"That sounds like something you do. I am not going to lie, I am curious to see what kid Zach was like," Aria said with a resolute expression on her face.

"..."

"The innocent, sweet, kind, cute Zach," she added.

"How rude. I am still innocent, sweet, kind, and cute as fuck. Also, I am handsome and charming too," Zach said in a haughty tone.

"No. You are a shameless pervert who is not innocent and sweet at all. You might be kind sometimes, and you are nowhere close to being called cute." Aria averted her gaze and lowered her voice before saying, "But I won't deny the handsome and charming part."

"I am happy that we are having this talk, but we are diverting from the topic again," Zach said calmly.

"Erza and I create the gods," Aria answered.

"How did you create them? LIke… what process? Magic or blood or… I don't know, perhaps some sacred ritual," Zach shrugged.

"Umm… So what happened was... Erza and I were bored. We had nothing to do, so we decided to create a race similar to humans but better than them."

"That sounds so… contradictory. Humans are the best race, in terms of evolution, at least."

"Indeed. Even our parents and the other gods were surprised. So we were so happy that we wanted to create something even better." After a brief pause, she continued, "So we brought clay from the higher heavens, shaped a humanlike body, and granted them power."

"That sounds like a bad plot. It's very predictable."

"Erza created six males, and I created six females. And since they were 'created,' they were already adults. We granted them our knowledge and told them every secret— but of course, not everything. We only told them what they should know."

"Years passed by, and we didn't know what to do with them. We couldn't put them between the humans as it could create a disparity that could eventually lead to wars and whatnot. So, we created another world for them."

"Wait… you did what?!"

"Not the type of world you are thinking of. It was a dimensional plane akin to a world, but with less space and waste," she asserted.

"I have got a bad feeling, but please don't tell me the dimensional plane you are talking about is…" Zach paused and looked into Aria's eyes before saying, "We are… all the players… God's impact is that plane."

"It indeed is."

SIGH!

Zach rubbed his face in frustration and groaned, "Come on! I had always wondered about this. Even if the gods called this an online world, it has to exist somewhere. Even the real virtual reality games have rooms full of servers, and they need to exist physically."

"I found it weird how this world didn't have one. But I assumed as it was done by the gods, their powers are undoubtedly mysterious, so everything was possible."

"Why are you upset about this, though?"

"I don't know. Now I feel like a puppet being controlled by the gods. I thought everything that happens in this world was unpredictable and completely natural. But what if the gods start tampering to fuck everyone over, and that's what they have been doing so far."

Zach felt even more compelled to destroy the very heavens, so he could end everything.

"The stronger you get, the more you will ascend. And the more you ascend, the closer you will get to the gods and the heavens." Aria shrugged her shoulders and uttered, "That's why I entered this world. It was the only way for me to get closer to the heavens and unleash my wrath."

"..."

Aria smiled at Zach and kissed him on the lips before saying, "But I met you. Now I don't care about anything else."

"You… don't want to take revenge anymore?" Zach asked reluctantly.

"I want to. But I think I will be fine even if I don't," she responded.

Zach felt angry after hearing that, but he didn't say anything to Aria. However, his anger was visible on his face.

Aria noticed it and said, "Don't get me wrong. I haven't forgiven them, and I will never forgive them."

"That's not what I am angry about," Zach muttered in a disdainful tone. "I know how important revenge was for you. I could feel your fury when we first met. But now, that fury has long vanished from you. That happened because you met me. I changed your goals. Yet… I can't help but be furious."

"Huh?"

"My main goal was to get out of the game, just like everyone else. But it slowly changed as time passed. Now, getting out of the game is my least prioritized goal. The only thing I care about now is to break the very order of the universe and unleash the calamity called Chaos," he asserted in a solemn voice with any hint of hesitation on his face. Seemingly, he was dead set on his goal and wouldn't change it even if someone asked him to.

Aria felt a chill down her spine after hearing that. For the first time in her life, Aria was actually scared of something, which turned out to be none other than the man she loved.

However, that didn't stop her from loving him. She hugged him tightly and pressed her bare breasts against his chest before looking up at him and saying, "I can't believe we are having such a serious conversation while I am naked."

Zach kissed her on the lips and carried her in his arms like a princess. Then, he sat on the bed and placed her on his lap before playing with her body.
