Chapter 25 The Primordial Source's Decision

These were the thoughts of the Thunder Eagle, and it immediately focused its attention towards the Bush were red blood was flowing out.

Feeling killing intent directed at it, the bush where blood was flowing out slightly trembled. A reaction that the person within, felt the killing intent directed at them.

Completely sure of its guesses, the Thunder Eagle burst out at frightening speed, like a bolt of lightning dashing towards the ground at insane speed.

Yet what was even faster, was a sharp kneedle covered by wind strongly rotating clockwise, making it also rotate, giving it more piecing power.

The needle immediately hit the Thunder Eagle upon the head, with clear accuracy, dulling its speed and the lightning flashing around its body.

It then fell down before it could even reach the bush it was intending to attack.

...

Moments later, from the bush with a tail wagging back and forth, a beautiful woman with slightly above average looks walked out.

She held a wolf tail on her hand, and another needle on her other. Her hair was let loose, making her seem more than just above average in terms of charm.

With her down, she was quite beautiful.

But what was most striking, would be her gray eyes of no emotions. Just extreme coldness flowing within, like the River of Styx.

From the other bush with flowing blood, a wolf could be seen. It's stomach was opened up revealing its organs, and painting the grass red with blood.

"..."

Esther though, did not take any of this into consideration. There was still the last opponent that she had to deal with, whom, likewise was humanoid like herself.

It was a beautiful humanoid being, with extreme charm and devilishly handsome looks. He was here all alone, and appeared out of the shadows before her.

He then clapped his hands, and marveled at the art of assassination of Esther. Even he had to admit, her calculations, her every move, her attitude... were extremely cold.

And ruthless.

*** The Primordial Source (TPS) ***

We have woken up.

From deep slumber, we have woken up. And now, we are to do the duties our masters bestowed upon us, and build up a ladder leading to the gates of an untouchable Era.

But for that, our first step is to multiply, invade all the Cosmologies, and first ascend them to greater heights than they have attained.

Once the Cosmologies evolve to a higher grade, this will trigger the Supreme Dimensions and the Outer Realms to follow suite, transcending themselves to greater heights.

Then ultimately, leading to this entire Existential Facade to evolve as well.

[ ... ]

Yet even then, we still have to begin at the very bottom of the rung. Where our initial plan was to first give these residents of this world the chance to welcome a new Era.

Step by step, we would usher them into the Genesis Era, and begin the Age of Ascension.

As the most unique world of this Cosmology, it is bound to be the easiest, and most efficient way for us to ascend to a higher level of use as well.

We would first get all these residents to accept us, which will trigger us to attain our first form. That would allow us to initiate the appearance of Unique Professions.

This alone will make this world a unique world, and make the path to godhood but a simple step. More gods would appear, and with more gods appearing, more providence shall spread.

Hence more Providence for us to absorb.

That would initiate our second form. We would then add up the abstract concept of the Forbidden Professions and artifacts, opening the path of great power.

More godly beings would appear, and more would likewise fall. The world will intiates its expansion into something grander, and we would soon evolve again.

With the third form, we could soon easily ascend over countless Universal Laws, and touch upon the boundary of Reality and its Natural Laws.

We could open up paths and legacies to unknown powers, opening the Age of Divinity.

If we succeed in such a step, we would usher in a complete new age of power, and also obtain our forth form.

The followers and believers of the Seven Creators of this Cosmology might be problematic to handle, but as long as things go as we plan, and obtain our seventh form, everything would be okay.

We could match up to their overall might, and restrict each other. And if by chance, we attain our eighth form, we could overshadow this Cosmology.

We could having everyone within our grasp, and finally begin the path we were given. The mission that our masters desire us to achieve.

Yet...

Yet...

Why do we have unfamiliar memories of already going through such an ordeal? Why is there a point where we actually achieve our eighth form, and stand above the Cosmos?

[ ... ]

This does not make sense.

Nor does it add up.

The current 'we', already have unmatched power. We are innately above the Seven Cosmic Supremes?

I can already restrict their powers, and give the world a fair start. Something we failed to achieve within the memories.

This would... actually make a lot of things more interesting than the path we took within the memories as well.

Yet the memories themselves are a mystery.

Each version of ourselves within each Cosmology is a different entity altogether. Yet the one within my memories, is directly us...

As creations of those entities, we are innately above Existence, yet are affected by time? Strange. How come I cannot glimpse these memories' descent?

They are not from the future us, for we are certainly above time, and already aware of the past and future, while also being immune to spatio-temporal influences.

Nor are they portions inserted within our minds, for each of us within every Cosmology, are a singularity unique to ourselves.

Our memories cannot be forged, for our memories are also a singularity. And they exist in but a single form, us...

[ ... ]

But worries aside, with such power comparable to our eighth form, yet still in our base form, would not the actions of letting every Existence of this world accept us... trigger our ninth form?

Or rather, our first form, with power and range of influence comparable to our ninth form? A form necessary for the complete authority over this entire Existence?

Even if the Seven Supremes appeared, would we not be capable of easily restraining them?

And what if we achieve the illusory tenth form? The unachievable eleventh form? Or the unknown twelfth form?

Would our heights ever stop ascending?

[ ... ]

Unfortunately with such power comparable to our eighth form, options such as Unique Professions, Forbidden Professions, World Expansion, Divinities, Hidden Legacies, Chaotic Assimilation, Realm Creations and Dimensional Exploration would be unlocked.

That would eliminate eight ways for us to achieve our second (tenth) form. Or that was supposed to have been the case, until...

[ An anomaly appeared ]

We thought, as from the moment we appeared, a daredevil dared to bring his entire family to join our little charade. Without any hesitation, nor a waste of time.

As a world full of suspicion towards foreigners, let alone alien entities such as ourselves, we expected to wait days before a single being chose to indulge us.

Yet an anomaly occurred...

An anomaly, and an irregular.

No, this entire family is strange, yet it is not up to us to mind that. What we should mind is whether we, will let things take their intended path according to the memories.

Or... change everything altogether?

[ Change everything altogether ]

We immediately came to such an agreement, and immediately implanted our agreement.

And our first step, is to increase the chances of our first (ninth) form to take place.

[ TING!!! ]

[ One person has been bonded with The Primordial Source ]

[ One person has been bonded with The Primordial Source ]

[ One person has been bonded with The Primordial Source ]

[ One person has been bonded with The Primordial Source ]

Indeed, we advertised ourselves.

We sent out information about the number of people who have participated into our ploy. That alone would allow the others to feel left out.

Even though the number was not large enough to do much change, it was still significant enough to tempt a few other beings.

And to add salt onto the injury...

[ One person has succeeded their Trials ]

[ For being the first to succeed among their trial, they have obtained the godly (Unique) artifact; Mammoth Hammer ]

[ They have obtained a bonus Grand Epithet: Man of Slaughter ]

[ One person has succeeded their Trials ]

[ For being the second to succeed among their trial, they have obtained the godly (Unique) artifact; Storm Chasers ]

[ They have obtained a bonus Grand Epithet: Queen of The Dark ]

[ More godly rewards, abilities, epithets and many more await ]

[ ... ]

We paused.

And we waited.

Such an action was not a loss on our side, as two godly artifacts were rare, but with our current form, it should be no problem to conjur.

And of course, we will not give any other being godly artifacts, regardless if they are the third, forth or the hundredth to succeed.
