Will of chaos

I couldn’t completely trust this Ascending Goddess about whom I know almost nothing, and Davoth has already shown himself more than once, more interested in his schemes than in my goals. He may have good reasons, or at least believe they are good reasons for doing things, but his selfishness in thinking only of his own side makes him unreliable.

Right now I know what I need to do and I know that I need at least the help of this Ascending Goddess, but putting on this stubborn and stubborn act will serve to test them. I want to know if there is something else being hidden from me.

“Zenos, this is not the time to be stubborn. Thousands of Universes and an almost countless number of people are at risk here.” (Davoth)

“Trying to make me feel guilty is useless. I feel sorry for these people, but I am putting myself and those dear to me in danger. I will not cooperate with you as before.” (me)

“You’re always hiding things and telling half-truths, always doing things in a way that’s convenient for you.” (me)

“I understand what you’re saying about him, but why are you so suspicious of me?” (Urd)

“I don’t know you, and the Ascended aren’t an inspiration to anyone’s trust.” (me)

I’m being so childish that it’s embarrassing, but if it works, it’ll be worth it. Judging by the looks on their faces, it’s working.

“Zenos, I’ve already told you everything relevant about the Ascended. You know about the Experiments, their origins, and the Goddess. You even know about Hajak, the Universal Cores, and the void disease that’s ravaging the Ascended population. There’s nothing more to be said.” (Davoth)

“Make a promise in the name of the System.” (me)

Since I have access to the System, using it to check Davoth’s lies will be easy. I also don’t need to be afraid of the System lying to me. I have Transcendental Authority and Davoth has no more connections with the System as far as I know.

“I swear that all relevant information about the Ascendants that I know of has already been disclosed to you, I swear in the name of the System.” (Davoth)

Ding!

“(He’s telling the truth.)” (me)

A warning window appears in front of me and only confirms that he told the truth. It seems like he wasn’t lying this time and he’s not hiding it out of nowhere.

“I still don’t trust you.” (me)

“I can live with that.” (Davoth)

“That is if I don’t stab you in the back. After all, I don’t want someone like you around and I don’t want to help you with your problems with the 2 Anomalous powers.” (me)

“Don’t lie, I’ve never done anything to harm you or those close to you, what I failed to tell you was never something that would get in the way of our plans and when it was necessary to change the plans I warned you.” (Davoth)

“(He knows how to persuade…)” (me)

“As for me, I don’t need to prove anything, in the end I will be linked to you.” (Urd)

“What do you mean? I won’t turn you into a Subordinate Goddess.” (me)

“You didn’t tell him, Davoth?” (Urd)

“No, I thought it was obvious.” (Davoth)

The two talk as if I should know what they are talking about, this only makes me more irritated.

“You need to make her a Primordial Goddess to transcend the universes with her Divinity and thus become an Anomalous Goddess, this way it will be inevitable that she will be linked to you in some way.” (Davoth)

“It will be as one of your bloodlines or as a Familiar, but I will still be an offshoot of your Chaos power, this is necessary for the plan to work.” (Urd)

“How would that be considered obvious? How was I supposed to know that!?” (me)

“How did you think your Chaos power would spread throughout this and other universes, now that the Universal Cores are out of reach?” (Davoth)

“…” (me)

I hadn’t thought of that, I thought I could do it indirectly, I also thought about the possibility of using the Unholy Authority, but thinking about it, it wouldn’t have worked, I wouldn’t have enough energy to spread it across all the universes, it would be even more impossible to spread it across thousands of universes.

“(I should have thought of that before.)” (me)

Looking at Davoth’s confident face and the Goddess’s unperturbed expression makes me feel stupid, makes me feel like I’ve made a senseless childish gesture and I don’t like it.

Sigh

“Okay, I’ll cooperate with you Goddess, but you, Davoth.” (me)

“I won’t help you, if you want help, show it with actions, you didn’t come after me to help, you came to seek help from me and everything you did before as well as what you’re doing now, has nothing to do with me, they are plans that have existed since before I was born, me being an enemy of the Ascendants is just an addition.” (me)

“If I wasn’t their enemy, I wouldn’t even be here anymore, if you want my help from now on, try to show some honesty.” (me)

“You’re a real idiot…” (Davoth)

Sigh

“I’ll settle this with you later.” (Davoth)

“Interesting, a Divinity born of the Ascending Law…” (Hajak)

“Hajak!?” (Davoth)

“How did you get here!?” (Nala)

“I brought him, you don’t understand what’s going to happen now, you’re going to need him.” (Freya)

“My readings reveal many errors in the energy flow, variation in the signature wave, random shapeless concentrations of Essence and Law… it seems like the beginning of an evolution as well as the middle of a degeneration process, fascinating.” (Hajak)

“The three thrones have commented on you, but they never went into detail, and this is the first time I’ve met the so-called False Goddess.” (Hajak)

“I’ll kill you if you dare call her that again!” (Nala)

“Freya, why bring him?” (Davoth)

“Once Zenos makes his move, there’s going to be a huge commotion, Hajak can hide what’s going to happen, no matter what it is.” (Freya)

“This will likely reveal my survival rate to be 83.02%.” (Hajak)

“It doesn’t matter much, even if you are discovered, you won’t be in any real danger, and the one who can help you is present, this is your chance to stand out in a positive way.” (Freya)

“I see, your words prove to be true, and I still need confirmation from the individual Zenos.” (Hajak)

I look back where a robot was with Freya coming out of my shadow pointing at him, I’ve heard of Hajak because of Hades’ report, Davoth didn’t tell me much about him, but I understand enough and I can see the reason Freya brought him here, Davoth is no idiot and he also realized after seeing him.

“Alright, but you will be the last and only after we finish off the Ascendants.” (me)

“Will my safety be maintained until then?” (Hajak)

“Within my reach, yes.” (me)

“Then I inform you that I accept my participation in this action, but I must inform you that after that my chances of re-accessing the Flow of Law will be close to zero.” (Hajak)

“It doesn’t matter, but if you betray us or act suspiciously you will be destroyed completely and utterly.” (me)

“I agree.” (Hajak)

After Hajak appeared next to Freya I realized that I tend to do things very extravagantly without realizing it, when I use my power on the Goddess it will cause an attack and with that it will alert the 3 Ascendant leaders, so having Hajak to hack the Ascendants’ information network will be helpful in decreasing the chances of being discovered.

“Davoth, keep an eye on him, I’m going to start now and I don’t understand him as well as you do.” (me)

“Try to be quick, the Ascendants are the least of our problems for now.” (Davoth)

The two of them walk away while Freya returns to my shadow, then my eyes turn to Celestina.

“You and Hades should also move away, everyone wait outside the Temple.” (me)

“I won’t let you…” (Nala)

“You can go, my child, what will happen now will be beyond your capabilities, it would be a risk for you to be near.” (Urd)

“Trust my Master, come.” (Hades)

“If anything happens to her, I will char her body and shatter her Soul!” (Nala)

I watch her leave with concern written all over her face and Hades following right behind, in a few moments only me and the Ascendant Goddess are left behind.

“It will probably hurt, a pain that transcends the Soul, the changes will be great and I cannot promise that your Consciousness will resist.” (me)

“Do not underestimate me, Bringer of Chaos… no pain will be greater than seeing everything the Ascendants have done until today, while I am tied like this.” (Urd)

“I know you hate them, but many became Ascendants out of fear, some were forced to do so by experiments and there are also those who became Ascendants with the intention of destroying the Ascendants from within, there is no absolute evil here.” (Urd)

“I like your positive way of thinking, but it does not erase or redeem everything the Ascendants have done.” (me)

“I know and I agree, but I hope this is a first step towards their atonement, so let me take this step on their behalf.” (Urd)

Her way of speaking and acting, the love and kindness in her eyes, she is like a mother taking the pain of her children, I respect that even if I don’t agree in this case, I would love to see the Ascendants burn, that would be fair, it’s a shame that justice doesn’t exist and I’m not that good either, I just want to settle this once and for all.

“(I have the Path of Wisdom, Fury and Nature… so how about forming the Path of Law…?)” (me)
