Void Evolution System-Novel

Chapter 1291 Emergence [2]

It was nonsensical.

Once Eyrrisea Luminus took her place on the battlefield, it became utterly incomprehensible.

This wasn't the outcome that should have occurred.

Grand Heavens Boundary should not have stood a chance against the Nox.

Their Demigods were stronger, they had greater numbers, and they had Emperors who couldn't be stood up to no matter how many weaker Demigods teamed up against them.

So why?

Eyrrisea Luminus was terrifying now. She used to be a weakling disguised as a powerhouse, but that was no longer the case.

The second she made her advent, tens and hundreds of Demigods met their ends. Her laws were flamboyant, seemingly just for show, but they held an absolute power none could stand up to.

If one assumed they had an attribute advantage, she'd rid them of it by using their weakness instead. If one thought they could overpower her with raw strength, she'd show them what true strength was. If one tried to find her tactical weakness, they'd come to learn she had none.

She'd been missing from the battlefield for years. Most assumed she'd died, while others assumed she was crippled or had fled, but none predicted this outcome.

None expected her to become what she was now!

'I…'

Immortal Blood Asura gritted his teeth in indignance.

As if Tiamat, the Death Empress, wasn't enough, a new monster like her showed up as well.

He no longer had a chance to survive on this battlefield.

Currently, he was relatively far away. He'd been thrown like a rag doll by the Death Empress as she fought the Karmic Emperor, and when he acted against his base instincts, he realized that the man he'd been working with for so long had tried to use him.

The Nox were not his allies. He always knew this. Yet, he never expected he'd be weak enough to be controlled by them.

He lost his rationality.

As he looked over the battlefield, as he gazed at the barrier of law beyond it, his rage boiled up again.

Yet, he forcefully pushed it down.

'Survival. I must survive.'

He had to retreat. He had to rid himself of the Karmic Emperor's influence before he returned, even if it meant allowing his mortal enemy to grow.

He had to grow within that period, so he wouldn't be pushed down when the time to fight came.

He turned his back, humiliation and rage filling every ounce of his being.

His Divinity was simple.

He wanted to dominate and conquer. He wanted to be the final winner in every battle he was part of. He wanted to stand above all others and step on their hopes and dreams.

He stayed in the lower universe for this purpose. He had no interest in the ongoing wars, but if he was on the winning side, his Divinity would feel the enhancement that his victory brought.

However…

'How did this happen?'

He had no choice but to question it.

This war had a set outcome from the start. Even if nobody betrayed the universe, they still did not have the power to stand against the Nox.

Immortal Blood Asura realized this clearly through the senses he'd honed for thousands of years, and thus, he betrayed his homeland for his selfish desires.

Yet…

What changed?

Why did such an impossible outcome become possible?

No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, there was only one outlier in every situation.

"Damien Void…"

That man was the problem.

Somehow, he, as an individual, managed to influence a war on the scale of countless universes.

Wasn't it unbelievable?

It was so unbelievable that he was still thinking about it, unable to swallow the truth.

The man who had become his mortal enemy, the man who's been targeting his Blood Asura Holy Land and has been their target for decades now…

That man was the side he should have chosen.

"DAMMIT!"

He flared his aura in rage.

In the end, that was also an impossible thing. He would have never chosen Damien's side even if their relationship was amiable from the start.

Was he fated to die?

How could it be?!

He, Immortal Blood Asura, was just a cog in the machine, just another fodder used to motivate that man?!

"I REFUSE!"

Madness overtook him again.

The Karmic Emperor's subtle influence corrupted his soul, giving his emotions fuel to burn brighter.

His brain told him to retreat and secretly grow his power.

But he could not ignore his heart.

He could not take a step away from the battlefield no matter how much he wanted to.

Slowly, robotically as if he was doing his best to resist, he turned back around to face it.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Eyrrisea Luminus was in the sky with a massive array of weapons around her. They rained down hell onto the earth, however, through precise control, their every attack missed her allies while perfectly striking her enemies.

Nox Lords fell by the tens. The numbers accumulated until over a hundred died every second.

There were only 2,000 of them left as a whole. Their numbers were brought down to match the universe's forces solely due to her interference.

'No, that one is even more terrifying.'

The woman named Tiamat.

He was no match for her.

Because she was toying with the Karmic Emperor, he could neither retreat nor spare effort to influence the battlefield.

The Nox Lords were fighting on their own. Yes, they had intelligence befitting of their positions, but, the majority of them didn't have true wisdom and only instinct that could lead them to victory in battle.

The absolute concentration of power that the Nox utilized.

'So this is the consequence of that.'

Why didn't he realize it before?

Such a flawed system, such a flawed race…

Perhaps, even without someone like Damien, they would have met a pitiful end.

'Or…'

His thoughts shifted again, a product of his denial.

He stopped admonishing the Nox. Instead, his hatred gathered on one man.

'Perhaps I allied with the wrong man.'

Perhaps the Karmic Emperor was the problem.

If so, there was still a chance.

'The Soul Emperor or the Saint Emperor…I must find them as soon as possible.'

Or so he thought.

Yet, his feet would not budge.

No, rather, they would not follow his command.

He took one step, then another. He started walking, then running full speed back into the heat of battle.

He could not resist.

And at some point, he just stopped resisting.

'If I have no choice, then I will at least exert my will in some way.'

Until he could free himself of this control, he would make his will known to the world. New chaptᴇrs are published on ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

He would not let himself be slandered by the masses!

Immortal Blood Asura flared his mana and allowed it to wildly scatter through the surroundings.

The sheer weight of his breath crushed several weak Demigods.

He watched as some ran away, some knelt in submission, and some others charged at him to take him down.

And out of the corner of his eye…

He saw that scene.

Everything he was trying to suppress burst forth again.

Everything he tried to do was for naught.

Because the chase of his lunacy appeared.

The barrier of law started to dissipate, and the shadow of a man slowly revealed itself from within.

"..."

Immortal Blood Asura's body went aflame as he roared.

"DAMIEN VOID!"
