Chapter 98: Vol1 Ch98: The first flame (5)

Inferring from the position of the hand bones valley, then the place where the white gate of bone was located was probably the Giant’s head.

This was a huge irregular spherical s.p.a.ce, the ground was filled with mud while a small ma.s.s of flickering flame stood in the center of the sphere, illuminating the surroundings.

The small ma.s.s of flame appeared to be incredibly weak, but was giving off an extraordinary sense of warmth to everyone present. Looking at the flame, one would feel like it contained everything in this world.

This was the first flame, that which created all things in this world. Despite looking like an ordinary flame, it was in fact the manifestation of this world’s authority, from which the authorities of the three G.o.ds originated from.

And now, Nala who had the power of the three G.o.ds would need to turn herself into a Torch and fuel this flame, once again purifying the world of the Black Abyss.

The channel through which the New Deity and the Progenitor Dragon left this world was also inside the first flame. Once Nala committed herself as fuel and made the flame grow strong enough again, Negary would be able to rely on his dragon body to leave through the channel that the other dragons left from.

Nala didn’t hesitate, her eyes were still as clear as they ever were when she headed into the first flame. The a.s.sa.s.sins of Sacred Valley reflexively wanted to stop her, but realized that it didn’t matter if they stopped her or not. They could only hope now that the Nala truly wished to prolong the flame.

“Lord Negary” Granny Seal’e who was standing by the side suddenly spoke up: “This was the scene that I had foreseen. A young girl who had the power of the three G.o.ds stepped towards the first flame with resolution, then became the Decapitated”

Nala’s steps towards the first flame abruptly stopped, some sort of power had descended and suppressed everyone present. This power wasn’t of this world, or rather, it wasn’t born from the flame but from the Black Abyss.

This power controlled Nala, made her involuntarily wield her Dragonscale sword, put it against her neck and slowly pushed the sharp blade through her skin.

Nala continually used the power of the 3 G.o.ds to resist this power, but to little effect, as the sword gradually went deeper.

Negary tried moving his body but found that the power made it impossible for him to move. As he tried moving his mouth, he noticed it didn’t restrict his ability to speak, so he grinned: 〖’Unspeakable’ side of G.o.d, the Cut Tongue? 〗

〖 Who would’ve thought that one of the leaders of Hales had been lurking by my side all this time. I always thought that the four sides of G.o.d must be Evil Spirits 〗

“The requirement isn’t to be an Evil Spirit, but rather having an [Origin] from the Black Abyss that had achieved release” Granny Seal’e chuckled in her strange voice: “As the essence of [Origin] is a connection with the universe itself, there are a few people on this continent whose [Origin] came from the Black Abyss. That is the so-called Black Abyss trait that these a.s.sa.s.sins of Sacred Valley are after”

“My talents are not any worse than the first Witch, but this world limits my potential. The way to release [Origin] is to grow closer to the root of one’s [Origin]. My [Origin] came from the Black Abyss, and this world that prevents the Black Abyss from returning is blocking my path”

〖 So that’s how it is 〗Negary swiftly understood: 〖 The world’s flame isn’t quite as fragile as we a.s.sumed it to be. Since there are qualifications for the one prolonging the flame, there are naturally qualifications for the one dousing it as well, correct? 〗

“That is correct, the three G.o.ds of the first flame corresponded to three out of the four sides of G.o.d. The Dragon corresponds to the ‘unseeable’ side because they represented disaster and calamity. The Divine race corresponds to the ‘unspeakable’ side, representing their mystical aspects. The Giant created the humans which corresponds to the ‘unfathomable’ side, representing humanity’s ability and potential to create miracles”

“Only when the three G.o.ds are gathered can they become the representative of the flame, which corresponds to the existence outside of this world and that which cannot be understood with reason——- the Black Abyss”

“By sacrificing Nala who holds the authority of the 3 G.o.ds to the Black Abyss, the flames shall be completely reversed, the light shall be dispelled and this world shall truly return to its original appearance in the Black Abyss”

〖 There should be a certain purpose as to why you’ve specifically explained all of this to me, otherwise, I don’t think you would say so much 〗Negary asked with intrigue.

“This is exactly why I revere Lord Negary” Granny Seal’e said sincerely: “Regardless of the adversity you face, you can always remain calm and seize every opportunity to become stronger until you overcome all adversity”

“It was because I dare not look down upon Lord Negary that I had surrendered the originally chosen Chopped Hand, Ellis, to Lord Negary, despite paying such a huge price to create her, as well as sincerely teaching Milord about supernatural knowledge to gain Milord’s trust”

“If it weren’t for Lord Negary’s existence, this old woman’s plan would not have gone so smoothly. Eldridge alone would have caused this old woman plenty of headache” Granny Seal’e exaggerated: “It was because Lord Negary brought Nala into existence that I managed to come up with this plan”

“The reason why this old woman explained so much to Lord Negary is partly that I truly admire Lord Negary, but also partly because of the Black Abyss”

“This world was originally just a corner of the Black Abyss, but it was also a great existence beyond our imagination. After being broken by the White Light and burnt by the flame, its original Black Abyss attribute had already been altered, greatly weakened from its original self. After being burnt by the Last G.o.d, the Black Abyss attribute had been weakened yet again, so if it was allowed to be burnt once more, it would be hard to say if the Black Abyss attribute would still exist at all”

“Even if the flame was extinguished and allowed this corner to return to its original Black Abyss appearance, the Black Abyss attribute itself would not be too strong. And so this old woman needed another betting chip, something to allow this corner of the Black Abyss to become stronger, or perhaps even regain its original greatness”

〖 So I am the other sacrifice. You want to use me to attract the attention of the root Black Abyss and help this corner of the Black Abyss return to its original eminence 〗Negary quickly understood with just a bit of thought: 〖 Because I represent another world 〗

“Indeed, although your [Origin] has been lost as well as your crown symbolizing the son of the world, all of this is no issue to the great Black Abyss. You will become the point of breakthrough for Black Abyss to invade another world”

“And so, won’t Lord Negary cooperate with me properly? Kiekiki” Granny Seal’e said with her strange laugh: “The root Black Abyss will replenish Lord Negary’s [Origin] and crown, at which point, Lord Negary’s position in the Black Abyss might even be greater than my own”

〖 What a terrible result 〗Negary raised his eyebrows. Nala’s sword had already cut a certain depth into her neck. Even if Nala was now in charge of the authority of the three G.o.ds and her body had grown considerably stronger than before, if this was left to continue, she would still lose her life.

“Lord Negary, you cannot resist against my unspeakable destiny, because I have foreseen destiny itself, the power of destiny shall continue to push you towards the ending that I had foreseen”

〖 Destiny? 〗Negary didn’t feel enraged at all from the betrayal and calmly a.n.a.lyzed: 〖 This power shouldn’t be quite this strong in the beginning. It is because you have been planning and arranging every little detail over the years, slowly guiding everything down this path that it had acc.u.mulated and grew to this degree, isn’t it? 〗

This was similar to how a marble that you dropped from your hand could roll in any number of directions depending on what happens on the ground. Granny Seal’e’s destiny ability was to determine the only direction that the marble would roll in, then build the channel to guide the marble down that direction.

The force of the marble was the greatest at first, so it might roll off from the channel, but the more it followed the channel’s guidance, the less force it contained until finally, it could no longer jump in any other directions.

And the force exerted on Negary and the others right now was that channel itself. Granny Seal’e had planned for so many years that the force contained in the marble had been reduced to rock-bottom.

“You realized too late, Lord Negary!” despite saying so, Granny Seal’e was still observing Negary vigilantly. As she had said, she had always admired and revered Negary, the more reason so that she couldn’t underestimate Negary.
