Chapter 463 - Puppets! Freedom!
Noah watched the attention of the Founder turn towards his clone as he watched on coldly, having saved all those he could as the death of the one called Malthus was out of his hands.
As for his own clone?
In front of the founder that was already reaching out towards it, Noah simply stopped supplying mana to the ability of Ancient Blood Clone, cutting off the connection with the ma.s.s of blood and flesh right away before any more damage could be done by this terrible being!
He had already sustained horrible damage to his origin just from the pressure pa.s.sed from {Fate Lord"s Authority}, and would not allow any more as he had already saved those most important to him. Now, all he could do was watch as this being that should not have appeared came into play in front of his eyes. Many questions were swirling in his mind, but he held no answers to any of them. Why had the most powerful Celestials appeared right before the last round of the tournament? Why did he move to act at this exact moment? What exactly were his goals?! No answer came to mind as the shocking events continued to play out.
The Founder watched the frozen body of his clone turn into a ma.s.s of b.l.o.o.d.y goo as his face scrunched up, waving his hands as golden flames embroiled it and turned it to ashes instantly.
His hand then focused the pearl sending the feed to the Dark Expanse on the remaining forces of Vampyres and other beings that were with Malthus, golden flames erupting from him as they went on to leap from one being to another, eating them all up with ease as numerous figures burned until nothing remained of them!
"Do you see how easily I can erase you all? Are you still watching?"
The Founder spoke as he waved the dark pearl showing the feed of everything upward, making it float in the skies as he turned his gaze towards the many Celestials and beings from the Light Expanse.
"I will use this opportunity when every side is listening to declare that war shall begin yet again. The enemy is one who you have seen, the beings constantly moving in the dark to sow disorder, the savages of the Dark Expanse!"
His apathetic voice had more emotion as his rumbling power was directed to the tens of thousands of beings around the clearing. He turned to the pearl floating above him as he spoke out towards the listening Infernal Lord and Grand Mage.
"I imagine you all must have somber expressions while thinking of the future and the billions of lives that will be lost. I will tell you now, cheer up. There is no need for such somberness in this little playground we are in!"
His voice was gradually rising in volume as his apathetic eyes that drew in all those watching shone in a peculiar l.u.s.ter while staring at the device sending the feed of everything in the surroundings to the highest echelons of the Dark Expanse.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/infinite-mana-in-the-apocalypse_16709186806051905/puppets!-freedom!_50823568958745965 for visiting.
"It is this little playground that I plan to break out of, and I will take you all with me. To a place where we can make our own choices, a beautiful place that is wider than anything you"ve ever seen…"
A pause appeared on the face of the Founder as he glanced around him. His languid eyes watched the reverent and terror-filled gazes of the tens of thousands of beings in the surroundings along with the figures of the Dark Expanse that were watching through the dark pearl. He spoke the next words slowly as he seemed to be reminiscing.
"In this Novus Galaxy of ours, we"re all puppets, puppets flowing across the river of fate…"
A look of hatred spread across the handsome yet terrifying figure of the Founder as he talked about a playground and the mention of puppets, his gaze seeming forlorn!
"I plan to break the strings that are constantly moving the innocent souls in this playground of ours, until all of us can no longer be considered puppets. I will set you all free. I...will set us all free!"
RUMBLE!
A terrifying shock spread out to the minds of any that were listening, not fully understanding the meaning of the words just said as they only sent deep terror to their hearts!
The Founder had a lost look on his face as he seemed to be reminiscing, his gaze looking afar at something n.o.body else could see. His mouth moved by itself as he seemed to be lost in a monologue, giving a show of only him to the terrified audience in the surroundings.
His gaze focused onto the dark pearl where he knew the forces that were his enemies were watching, continuing his monologue with no interruption.
"Return to your holes and hold your families close. Spread the word to the other rats and prepare, because I"ll be sending my forces towards your direction now."
OOOOM!
The Founder finished his words as he pinched his hands towards the dark pearl, destroying the device and cutting the feed that the powerful beings in the Mage"s Tower were receiving right away. He only left behind an air of power as the authority he was releasing slowly receded.
WAAAA!
An air of madness and uncertainty spread out across the expansive field, the many Celestials and Celestial Grandmasters were already on the ground kneeling as this Founder rose to the skies.
"Scour my Celestial Realm for any remaining forces from the Dark Expanse, and get a Wars.h.i.+p to make haste towards the Underworld that has been hiding them. Destroy it all with no trace left remaining."
RUMBLE!
A command rang out in the ears of every Celestial Grandmaster as they placed their right hands on their chest in allegiance and understanding.
"The four geniuses showing most promise...take them to the Golden Bastion and finish forging them into the best weapons before they join the coming conflict. There should be another Luminescent Rainbow Dew there for the final two champions. Spare no efforts to raise their realms."
More commands released from the Founder as an air of majesty spread out, his gaze calm and apathetic as he landed back on the Alicorn overshadowing everything around with its sheer size.
"Onillus, you shall lead the Squadrons for the first wave of attacks in this war. Prepare to take on the t.i.tle of a Commander and lead the first forces of the numerous Prime Worlds and Celestials to the border where our forces await. As of now...we are officially at war!"
OOOOOH!!!
"It is a war for Liberation, for Order and Balance! For breaking free of the chains that bind us in this playground we are in!"
WAA!
"For Order and Balance!"
"For Freedom!"
…!
Noah watched the roaring of essence and power from thousands of Celestials and powerful Grandmasters, his heart beating wildly as a scene of paramount importance played itself out in front of him. Athena had come to inexplicably stand by his side as she looked forward with s.h.i.+ning eyes.
The beings from numerous Prime World watching were shaking in the places they stood as the show of power was too much for them, those that could still think knowing that many of them would be heading into a war soon!
A tournament that was meant to observe the genius of a few Celestials had ended in the most shocking of ways, a single being appearing as he overhauled everything happening, killing numerous forces from the Dark Expanse and announcing the beginning of a long war!
