Chapter 226 The Truth About Therut



"Amazing is not a word to describe them. The primordials are divided into two races, the true primordials and the pseudo-primordials, known as the gods, among them they are local gods, higher gods and origin gods; the ones who are much more stronger than others gods and celestials. Then we have the primordials, such as the abyss is."

Raith staggered, bleeding from his nose.

The archon paused after seeing him in this state.

"No, don\'t stop... keep talking." Raith insisted, even now that hsi head was aching him so much that it felt like it was going to split.

Whoever developed the celestial code was really serious about protecting the secrets of the higher existence.

"Fine, I will tell you everything. There is a place called Achaia. You probably have not heard of–

"The city of gold, the mount of gods."

The archon expressed a little degree of surprise, "You do know. This will make this easier. Achaia is the center city, a place of convergence for every plane, it is like a common ground, and because of that, you find several celestials and gods walking in Achaia. The only ones you don\'t get to see are archangels and true primordials. And the rulers of Achaia were the gods, they exercised their authority on Achaia although I wouldn\'t say it was good, we never saw loopholes in it until Fel came."

Raith continually vomited blood on Noir\'s back. But he was still signaling for the archon to continue.

"Fel was an archon, I don\'t know how he did it but he was an archon through and through. I was his first friend, the one that he first spoke to about his purpose in Achaia. Fel explained to us that the gods that made a home for themselves in Achaia were expelled, gods.

Gods that were defaulters in their realms. And they had the guts to come to Achaia to exercise authority over celestials. They were just being pure bullies, if we can displace them we can make Achaia a free city that would be centered around us.

Now that I think about it, Fel\'s idea was quite greedy but it was all for the sake of what he wanted to do... Fel just needed a way to go to the mount of Achaia, where the gods resided, all he needed to do was break the crystal.

Seeing as the only person Fel worked with was the Abyss. I don\'t see how the abyss wasn\'t involved in this.

"And so, what happened?" Bleeding through his eyes but paying no attention to it.

"We looked for archons with the same purpose, we challenged the gods, and we were beaten. We were almost killed but Fel used the shard of the crystal he broke to save us... and in exchange for his life. And that is the reason why the abyss hated him so much."

"I see... if Fel died saving all eight of you. Why was his name so tarnished."

"Fel was the one that designed this world, although all our bodies are the foundation but Fel is the one that held the true shard that is keeping Therut, it was the only way he could cast a protective barrier and hide us away from the surveillance of the rulers of Achaia. He said in order to create a world, there needs to be a bad guy and he decided to be that bad guy, he created a history for the people to believe. And with the shard, dust was birthed... hence a way for us to control the humans born in this world."

It made sense how the death archon was considered the least of the hierarchy despite holding such prospective power, this was all the scheme of Fel to stay low-key and search for a vessel for the abyss.

Raith shook his head, "I don\'t understand, didn\'t you guys create the world from scratch.... how were humans born?"

"The shard... it gives birth to all things. It is a shard of creation. Myths with us celestials say the crystal was an adornment of the father of creation... the only thing left when he created the planes. That was the kind of thing Fel broke, his deed alone was amazing and made him the most wanted criminal in the celestial planes... you do know that death is inevitable for you... with this much information."

Raith at this point could not take it anymore, his inside was ruptured and blood persistently poured from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. He was slowly losing grip of his own life, right there on top of Noir.

[You have died due to the celestial Code]

[You have leveled up twice]

[You have gained 8 stat points]

[Your intelligence(Ev Zeeyra) has increased tremendously]

[Your Endurance stat will now affect how much you can endure the celestial code]

[The UNDEFEATED COMMANDER KING BODY is building resistance against the celestial code]

It was at this point, that Raith began to test true liberation from the chains of the world. This was the point where it had all begun, the point he transcended from just a normal human on Earth to a cosmos-class person.

[Due to title effect \'One who devours death\' you will be resurrected]

Raith slowly rose, with a new body.

"Amazing, truly amazing, even Fel was not like this."

Raith finished checking his body before responding to the archon\'s comment. "Fel wasn\'t like this?"

"Fel had the power of darkness, but he never had the power to overcome death. If there is anything I have noticed within the few years that I have asked my pontifex to choose candidates to carry the essence of the abyss; it is that each of them always has different abilities. And so far, you are the only one that carried the power to conquer death. I want to believe the abilities granted by the abyss has to do more with the person\'s potential than the abyss\' power.

You might be much more special than you thought you are."

Raith looked down, thinking about the words the archon said, they made a lot of sense considering that the abyss has been deliberately hiding several things from him.

"Okay, thank you for the information, can we get back to the real matter? If I have been following all you said, it means that if the eight archons all come out, contrary to what we thought the world will not be destroyed. But when Fel\'s body is pulled out...wait wouldn\'t it have decayed already or something?"

"Yes, it would have... Therut will stand should all the others fully awaken, but this land will not be different from an abomination of desolation like you see..." the archon pointed Raith\'s attention to the once beautiful and graceful capital of Pomeii, now a desolate land.

"I see..." Raith nodded, he had instinctively moved his hand to his nose to clean whatever blood was there but discovered that there was no blood.

"However, should all of us be fully awake, it will expose the location of the crystal. The moment that happens, I can\'t say what will happen again. Even now, if the rulers of Achaia are still on our matter, I suspect that they are already searching for a way to come."

"Hmm..." Raith responded while rubbing his cheek. He was enjoying this now that the pain of the celestial code was a bit manageable.

"There is something on my mind."

"What is that?"

"I think they may be a betrayer amongst us."

"Huhhh..." Raith cocked his head. "What is your reason for saying that?"

"The location of the amethyst stones used in waking us is a piece of information that only the archons know and was passed down confidentially to each of their pontifices. Yet this human that disturbs us, knew everything."

"That is true, Hallan Lamar definitely knew exactly where your own was, seeing that the first place he went to was the palace."

"And so, I suspect that one of us might be trying to take the crystal for himself. It is merely speculation for now."

"But if it is true this will mean what?"

"That Hallan Lamar is not working of his own accord and this was a scheme from one of us. It is possible for us to alter souls... sometimes put a shard of our essence into humans that are birthed from the crystal. Because we have connected to the crystal through Fel\'s sacrifice.

It is a very sensible notion that one of us created Hallan Lamar for the sole purpose of waking up and taking the crystal for himself."

"Wow..." Raith was speechless. He inhaled and exhaled before asking: "Is there anyone that comes to mind?"

"A few, when we all decided to become inactive and enter a deep state of slumber, there were two archons that were against it, eventually we all had to because the majority supported the idea. It was the sword archon and the hound archon."

"This might spell out more trouble for us should your notion be correct, right?"

"Yes... it will be difficult to deal with any of those two if they absorb the crystal of creation."
