Justicar then glanced at someone to the left, and Draco was surprised to see that it was none other than Kilobar!
Just like before, he wore loose white robes with a golden trim line around the arms, legs, and torso. His eyes were like horizontal crescent moon, giving him that distrustful squinty-eyed vibe like Gin Ichimaru.
He was also thin and slightly handsome with extremely pale skin, neatly combed white hair as well as a face that was shaped like a 'V'.
Upon receiving the signal from Justicar, he walked forward with a slight smile and then bowed to the true gods of the council. "Divine Speaker Kilobar greets the noble Supreme Council."
All the True Gods who were part of the council smiled, which was a surprise. Ulido even nodded and spoke calmly. "Rise Kilobar, we see you."
Kilobar chuckled and then turned to the other True gods and gave them a nod. The True Gods seemed to feel flattered and cheered his name, which shocked Draco further. After all, Kilobar seemed completely like a mortal in his senses, so he hardened his face and inspected him.
When he did, Draco almost fainted.
「Name: Kilobar – Semi-Origin God
Level: Law of Truthful Insight (Supreme)
Divine Energy: 100%/100%
Origin Energy: 0.5%/0.5%.」
A true blue Semi-Origin God!
In fact, Draco in his heart knew that if Supreme Law True Gods existed, of course Semi-Origin Gods would exist. Even with the war back then, such fellows were in a different class of their own, only able to be killed by other Semi-Origin gods or actual Origin Gods.
Not everyone was like Norma who would cut herself off and end up dying of old age after exhausting her everything to advance. Many would either take part in the war or preserve themselves in others to see the glimpse of the future at the Origin Rank.
It was just that the idea that Kilobar was a Semi-Origin God never occurred to Draco, and it raised some frightening questions. This guy was the Divine Envoy sent down to negotiate with him on behalf of the Supreme Pantheon.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA whole Semi-Origin God had come down to NEGOTIATE with him, who was fucking Rank 1 at the time, not even with his Divine Abyssal Prime class. He was still an Avenger back then! He had only just unlocked his bloodline and finished his Subjective Magic training with Richmond at the time.
It was after Loki and Rosella were born that Kilobar visited. The him back then did not know shit about the world nor anything else yet his arrogance had been through the roof.
Yet this Semi-Origin God had humbled himself to chat with him and even made it seem like they could be fast friends if Draco ascended.
Draco was frightened by the thought. One wrong cough from Kilobar at the time and the accounts of Draco and Eva would have gone up in smoke. It also highlighted the importance of the Ultima Sunt issue in the eyes of the gods if they cautiously had a Semi-Origin God with the law of Insight to test him.
Draco couldn't help but wipe sweat from his brow. Luckily, he wasn't a retard like King who wanted to eat everything and crush the gods. The him back then just viewed Ultima Sunt as another power, just as much as he did now, so Kilobar likely decided he was not a threat.
Kilobar then turned to Draco with an amiable smile. "We meet again, Brother Draco."
This greeting caused the faces of many True Gods to change. Not only did Kilobar address Draco on the same level as himself, a Semi-Origin God, but he also indicated that he had known him before!
Wasn't this a newly ascended True God from the main plane?
The Five Council Leaders with Supreme Laws were also alarmed by this. Poseidon's eyes glowed as he asked in a deep voice. "Lord Divine Speaker, what do you know about this fellow?"
Every eye turned to Kilobar with curiosity. Just what was special about Draco that made him a 'brother' to a Semi-Origin God?!
Kilobar seemed stunned. "Wait, all of you don't know who he is?"
Everyone seemed embarrassed by this, because it seemed like Draco's identity should be obvious. Kilobar then turned to Draco with a questioning glance. "Draco… you didn't tell them?"
Draco chuckled. "Did they ask? Everyone just assumed my identity and just fast tracked me onto the battlefield. Who cares about background, existence or backing when there is an enemy like the grey rot around?"
The faces of everyone became better as Draco's words could be construed as a defense. Yet the True Gods on the council frowned as his words could also be a form of scolding.
Kilobar understood this and chuckled. He turned to the council and released the first bombshell.
"Brother Draco is an Immortal Adventurer."
BOOM!
You could see it through the eyes of every True God, a miniature explosion had erupted in their heads. If this world was slightly cartoonish, their scalps would jump up and release a mushroom cloud before falling back down.
Of course the True Gods knew what Immortal Adventurers were. According to the lore of Boundless, at least on the main plane, the true gods called the Immortal Adventurers from another plane to come and assist the world.
This was the direct reason why the NPCs accepted these undying freaks and did not cause them trouble, also why the Rank 7 NPCs didn't just exterminate all players to nip this potential problem in the bud.
Of course, as True Gods, they knew that didn't have shit to do with that. It was just the misconception of the mortals. They knew that Immortal Adventurers were some crazy experiment of the Origin Gods, which was also why they didn't dare to trouble them too much.
But those fellows had only appeared here 4 or 5 years ago!
You're telling us that one of them has already become a True God? With an Intermediate Law too?!
This was too much to take for some fellows as they clutched their chests. One had to know, potting aside how they struggled and how long it took them to become True Gods, there were some NPCs down there who had been stuck at Rank 7 for more than 200 times the period of time the Immortal Adventurers had spent in this world.
The True Gods on the council were shocked and solemn. One should know, even if they became True Gods, the resurrection ability of players didn't disappear. The penalties only became far more severe, but their accounts wouldn't be lost.
If enough Immortal Adventure True Gods appeared, they could essentially bully the NPCs to death since they had one life. This sense o crisis was exactly what the Rank 7 and top echelon of the main plane were going through at the hands of Umbra.
Kilobar saw the reactions and seemed amused. He naturally released the second bombshell. "Also, Draco is the inheritor of the Ultima Sunt that we signed a contract with."
Kilobar snapped a finger and a giant scroll manifested in the air that was written with strange runes. However, those runes rearranged themselves into legible text for the viewer, regardless of what language they spoke or even if they were literate or not.
Draco also glanced at it and saw where he signed, and felt a connection to it. Yup, this was the very agreement he used to punish and restrain Sigurd back then, an Origin Grade scroll!
There was a second and much stronger uproar as the various True Gods were shocked and fearful. The Ultima Sunt was a catastrophe that came before the era of the grey rot. Very few here were even alive during that era, but it had been gruesome.
Many True Gods had fallen, consumed by the vile Ultima Sunt as they grew stronger. With their beckon ability, it didn't matter who you were, you would enter a daze and walk over to happily be chewed to death.
They also had that bloody stealth ability which rendered them obsolete to your senses unless they provoke you. Coupled with that beckon ability, it wasn't much of a fight and more like True Gods cowering at their hiding places, wondering who would be next.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWorse even, Ultima Sunt developed the ability to mimic the State of Being of consumed targets with Subsume. You've locked yourself in your bedroom with 100,000 killing arrays, but a knock on your door and a sweep of your senses tells you that its your wife outside.
You open your door and its not your lovely wife, but a 4 foot grey-skinned humanoid with gems all over its body and cold, inhuman eyes. At that point, your shoulders would just slump in defeat because you knew you were going to be chewed to death today.
If the fear of the grey rot was 1, then the fear of the Ultima Sunt was 10!
After all, the grey rot, while terrible, could be beaten back. It was not hopeless nor impossible. Meanwhile, to deal with the Ultima Sunt back then, they could only invite an Origin God down from his busy work to smash the entire race into paste.
Even then, it was said that the Ultima Sunt had bitten off chunks of the True Gods body while fighting for survival. The Origin God had lost a lot of power and could not output as much energy when he returned up, causing the workload of the other Origin Gods to increase permanently.
This caused the relationship between True Gods and Origin Gods to become strained and was why they had little contact, even up until now.
Just thinking about how they were in such close proximity with such a fellow made many True Gods feel cold as they wanted to run, but had to force it in due to their pride and location. So the result was a lot of red-faced True Gods who were swallowing down their screams of fear and tears by force.
Likewise, even the Supreme Council were shocked and shaken. Gabriel looked at Draco with extremely complex emotions, wondering how her soulmate could be such a vile and evil being?
Wait, was it precisely because he was repugnant and she was virtuous and holy that they attracted each other?
Meanwhile, the others were not so relaxed. Ulido couldn't believe he had an Ultima Sunt in the same office as himself and even registered him using his law. What if he had been chewed to death on the spot?
Justicar was filled with fear and regret. He had been the one to bring Draco here and had been cold to him throughout. He even used his aura to suppress him! What if the fellow was narrow minded and marked him down, planning to swallow him in one bite later on?
Draco was speechless by the reactions of the dignified True Gods. They were like little kids who were scared by the mention of the boogeyman, or like adults who heard that the taxman was at the door.
He gazed around at them and they all refused to look him in the eye as if that was signal to be consumed or something. Speechless and furious, Draco was about to berate the group when Kilobar chuckled once more and attracted the attention of the group.
"You guys are overreacting a little too much." He pointed out.
Draco nodded in agreement, feeling like if he was wearing robes, he would fling his sleeves and harrumph with displeasure. Before Draco could heap praises on Kilobar though, he released the third bombshell that absolutely shattered everyone.
"After all, Brother Draco is a future Origin God in possession of an Origin Bloodline." Kilobar revealed with a playful smile.
Rather than explode, the entire chamber became deathly silent, as if someone had squeezed the entire area by the neck.
