Chapter 366 The Grand Scheme I
Meanwhile, just when Elaide was being killed and revived by his supporter, Mirai remained floating in place where he had left her.
She was aware of what he was going through, as thanks to her teacher\'s blessing, she was capable of obtaining selective knowledge of her desired targets.
And the blessing from her so called ancestor, gave her access to power beyond her imagination. The ability to using the power of the Rules of Reality even beyond the control of beings like Riley, direct child of Transcendental.
In fact, perhaps only genuine outer beings could grasp the power of Reality far better than her. But as for Outer Demigods, Archdemons, Archangels and so on..? They were mere children to her.
"It\'s about time to return too, don\'t you think?" An ethereal voice of serenity echoed out, as the vast emptiness of the outer void around her opened itself up to revealed the extreme handsome disposition of her teacher, Teach.
"Mhm." She nodded, waving her hand around to instantly heal the shattered area of the First Sky. And just as she thought as such, the area healed up fairly quickly, at the cost of a strenuous amount of divine power. \'It\'s too much.\' She thought.
Yet it was understandable. How would the ability to become nigh-omnipotent come at no cost? That would just be broken. "Teacher, I\'ll be back in a few minutes. Let us round up the legions of the Silver Empire." She added, and Teach nodded.
She then smiled, all the anger and emptiness she felt when conversing with Elaide cleared out. Be it the remnant will, or her current self. Her teacher was still the best, after all. She descended after that thought.
"...."
Teach watched her go by, as he remained floating within the skies. Besides him, the folds of space rippled ever so gently, as an extremely handsome woman stepped out. "Wow, just wow. And here I expected a fight to the death between the deluded husband and the obsessed wife."
The lady said, as her entire visage was completely revealed. It was Athena, the Great Lady of Wisdom, now in a different outfit than before, yet still stunning nonetheless.
The outfit was not too feminine, yet it still captured her waist, curves and chest perfectly well, illustrating that despite being handsome, she was also a beautiful goddess.
"Great Lady of Limitless Wisdom, please don\'t be like that. She\'s my student after all." Teach did not turn around to glance at her, as he defended Mirai, choosing to respect whatever choice she made for herself.
That was the least he could do as her teacher, and as her elder. But Athena thought otherwise, as she chuckled at his words.
"Funny, coming from from you. Respect her choice? When did you start doing that, O\' Great Enigmatic Concept of Knowledge?" She playfully inquired, coming to float besides him, as they gazed down upon the world.
Upon their playground.
"...."
But Teach remained quiet, choosing to treat her question as a rhetoric question of sorts. Athena also did not seem to mind whatsoever, and continued to watched their soroundings.
Instead, she added, "You really do like this little girl, don\'t you? Otherwise, why would you hide within the folds of space, just to intimidate the various peeping Minor and Major Gods hiding away as well?"
Athena revealed Teach\'s intentions, as she subtly smiled at him. And indeed, Teach, was one of the presences hiding away that Archdemon Riley felt threatened from, a few moments ago.
And as for why his presence was at the level of a Transcendental? It was because his Law was a perfected Absolute Law at best, thus deep down, Teach at his prime... should be an Elder God far above Transcendentals!!
A God close to shredding the boundary of the True Laws, and obtaining something that only a few Cosmic Gods had in store.
A Mystery.
But as he was weak, his presence was only that of a Transcendental God. But he was still the greatest threat felt.
Athena coming in next, as she had the residual presence of the World Will within her being, making her aura that of a Transcendental God as well.
While the least threat felt was from Neonate, who... was the only genuine Transcendental amongst the three, despite being the weakest in terms of aura. Quite ironic.
"Of course I am, she is my pride and joy." Teach responded, turning around to leave. "Oh, and with this, I\'ve built a foundation on the mortal world for myself, as you suggested. But... is it enough for your schemes to take place, Great Lady Athena?"
He inquired, a soft inquiry at that, yet those words alone, ignited a great storm of Providence to bloom out all around them. Like a garden of chrysanthemums unveiling themselves into a sea of beauty.
All the True Laws, no, to be precise, each version of the True Laws, manifested as a Mystery of the highest attainments, danced within the seas of Providence. A resonance so majestic, not even the Creators could replicate it!!
"Not really." Athena did not mind his attitude, nor the resonance of Mysteries around her, and responded to his inquiry, "Ragnarok will soon come to an end. In the coming three months, Transcendentals will be able to descend from above. At most, one Transcendental from each Pantheon within the Heavenly Divine Realm."
As she spoke, each word of here guided all the Mysteries around them, gathering them together in great waves.
"Yet despite that, the tides would still be against you guys. Not only do you have the Monster Pantheon and the Light Pantheon after you, the Dark Pantheon will also set their eyes on you, just because. Greed will also target you, when you kill one of his children, the Insurmountable Demon, Riley."
The gathered Mysteries churned in excitement as she continued to speak, freely dancing around the two of them.
"Basically, you have four Pantheons against you. What will you do now?" She concluded with a question. A question that was accompanied by a playful smile. A playful smile that halted the progress of the resonating Mysteries around her.
Teach also paused within his steps, as he knew of all that she mentioned. In fact, he knew more already. Especially, why such a unique reaction took place when she spoke. Thus he responded, continuing the process of resonance.
"Back then, you said to allow the spirit race to descend, so that they start up a force of their own as well, isn\'t that right?" And his first sentence, exposed the grand schemes of Athena, the Orchestrator of Neutrality.
And that alone, caused each Mystery to explode out with fervor and excitement that surpassed those of the previous chain of resonance. Individually at that. Let alone when their excitement gathered together once more.
BOOOM~!!!
The sorounding area of the First Skies was shattered for the second time today, as a powerful wave of omnipotent authority spread out, threatening to erase the entire world out of existence.
Fortunately, the World Will quickly responded, and transported the two of them straight towards the Core Region of the world. An area made up of the same quantity of Mysteries everywhere!!
「What are the two of you planning to–」
The World\'s Will immediately responded the moment they appeared, trying to obtain information out of them, only to come across an invisible barrier in the form of... being ignored.
Teach was not done, there was more to the schemes of Athena that he wanted to expose. Schemes that would later result into something devastating for Existence as a whole.
"Their descent will cause turmoil. As with their threat superseding ours, they would be the focus of attention when we deal with the Insurmountable Demon. At the same time, when the demons launch their attack, the angels will keep them busy."
BOOM~
「No, wait–」
"That\'s two problems out. And with the relationship between the Supremes, the Divine Faction would ally with the Spirit race. That being the case, upon descending, the group that the Spirit Race will attack, the Divine Faction will follow as well."
BOOM~
「Ochestrator, stop hi–」
"Hence, to keep the equilibrium of power prevalent, the Pantheon being attacked, would have the support of another Pantheon. The battle would be a two on two brawl, thus leaving behind one Transcendental God for us to handle... or am I wrong, Great Lady Athena?"
BOOM~
「....」
Teach concluded his words as well, turning around to face Athena with a light smile of his own. Athena also smiled back at him, as she slowly clapped her hands.
The World\'s Will was forcefully silenced, as what she was trying to stop, had already occurred. No amount of words or blame, could stop this. Hopefully, they end here...
For at this time, each Mystery had enough power to supercede the overall might of all Mysteies combined. And to make matters worse, their power was continuously increasing as they continued to converse!!
"As expected of the Enigmatic Concept of Knowledge. I am impressed. That indeed is the case." She said, turning to look around her, gazing at the Mysteries that had so much omnipotent authority, they weren\'t even Mysteries anymore.
Pity, the World\'s Will had hoped too soon. Or rather, the very concept of Hope was long erased years back, remember?
