Chapter 2379: Family Reunion?




"Father..."


Freyja glanced at the large "statue" made of black crystal, her father Fjord. The powers of Obsidian went beyond even what I"ve achieved so far.


It wasn"t just Sealing, but it included Nullification, a power not even I have comprehended yet. And one powerful enough to nullify all things he seals.


Meaning that the things he turned are still somewhat alive, but unable to even be "themselves" their existences have been nullified, and they"re only black crystals.


Time reversal? It would have worked if they were recently transformed, but it has been too long since then.


Eating them all and then trying to revive them? That only works with the logic of their souls still remaining unscathed.


However, their souls had also become crystal, if I eat them I"ll only eat the black crystals, and they"ll simply cease to exist as they dissolve.


Yes, even soul and origin core have become black crystals, Obsidian is that powerful.


"So this is what he has become now? And everyone else... his subjects."


Freyja glanced at the countless other black statues.


"Are you sure you can"t do anything?! What about Flora?! Lucifer?"


She asked us with a bit of desperation, but we couldn"t really do anything. I had tried everything I could. I was strong, but my powers have always been more about... well, dealing damage.


"So this is what that monster did! Unbelievable! To think he sealed so many innocents!"


Ruby was raging angrily, her hair turning into flames and so did her dress.


"Calm down Ruby, you"re getting all fiery already..."


Surtr tried to calm her down, it seemed Ruby was even more temperamental than him. "Shut up you big idiot!"


Ruby wasn"t having it though, raging furiously.


"Obsidian... there"s still a way to unseal them," said Sapphirine.


"There is?!" I asked with Freyja at the same time.


"Yes, Obsidian can seal... and unseal things," she said. "As long as we could find him and convince him... but that"s unlikely, he works on mysterious ways, he"s selfish too. His power, at times feels so unfair for someone like him."


"If he"s so strong why haven"t you been turned into statues yet?" I asked.


"Our Supreme Divinities protected us when he first tried to do so," she said. "But it seems that people that aren"t us, such as these people from Genesis, easily fell before his almighty powers."


"This is really... something," Flora sighed.


"Wait! What about Skadi then? Where is she right now?" Freyja asked. "And her daughters?"


"She was with Lazuli, Blaze, and other of my allies when everything happened, they must be in Abyss right now, and we"re getting closer to them as we speak," I said. "We"ll be able to talk to them more comfortably once we regroup. So for now, calm down, Freyja. I was already planning to find Obsidian and f.u.c.king kill him. Once I can kill him and eat him, I"ll be able to copy his powers and then I can save your dad and the rest."


"I-Is that possible?" wondered Freyja. "Right, your strange powers... You"ve been stealing the divinities and abilities of so many G.o.ds before, it was the whole reason how you got so far too."


"Y-Yeah, kind of," I nodded. "But when you say it like that it kind of makes me seem like a weird monster! I"ve become a better person, you know? I... I think I have!"


"Hmm..." Freyja squinted her eyes. "I suppose... if you saved me, instead of just eating me. You"ve certainly become less of a beast now."


"Yeah we"ve tamed her well," said Flora with a slight giggle. "She was an hungry beast before, but she"s nicer now. She has become a good girl."


She even patted my head?!


Who does this hag thinks she is!


"Y-You!"


As I was about to respond, Freyja smiled at me.


"Thanks for keeping father and his subjects safe, Kireina." She said. "I am indebted to you... So for now, would it be okay for you if we cooperated? It"s not like I have another choice either. I am in an alien world and don"t know where to go..."


"Hm! Sure, I was planning to just do that..." I shrugged. "It"s nice you"re cooperative. What about Gerda?"


"I"m with Freyja, so sure," the t.i.taness said. "We need to rescue Freyr, but first we need to get out of here... If he"s in the Spiritual Plane, we"re pretty far away right now... Until then, I"ll


help."


"Skadi is not really my mother, and I have only met her briefly..." said Freyja. "But I believe she"s a good woman at the very least, so I want to find her. At least, as the wife of my father, I need to do that."


I had no idea Freyja had such sense of responsibility towards her family members! I had thought she would have hated Skadi or something.


"Technically, Lazuli is your sister, right?" I wondered. "She"s also a fairy like you! Wouldn"t it be nice to meet her?"


"Right... Lazuli as her name?" wondered Freyja. "I guess... maybe there"s a family member I can meet soon. I"ve been so distanced from my family after all this time... After losing even more, I"ve begun to realize how foolish I"ve been."


"Well, that"s good to hear," said Flora with a warm smile. "Although a lot of bad things have happened, at least we can think of that as one of the few good things, Freyja."


"Yeah, I guess so... Also don"t get flirty with me our thing is over for a while now!" said Freyja.


"I know, I"m just being nice, I"ve long ago stopped caring about romance..." said Flora. "Like you, I am also a mother after all."


"Hmph, is that so?" Freyja sighed.


Huh!


"Sooo are you going to tell me what the h.e.l.l happened between you two or what?!" I asked


angrily.


"W-Why would we?" asked Freyja.


"It"s a private matter, Kireina..." said Flora. "Don"t be like that."


"Ugh..."


Come on, why are they so secretive!


"Whatever the case... Now that those things are done with. Time for a talk with the big guy


over there. Surtr, what were you doing, and how did you even started fighting Freyja and


Gerda to begin with?" I asked.


"Hm? What?"


He was still eating like nothing else mattered...


Seriously, is this the same Surtr as before?!
