Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 651 - 39: The Awakening of the Gods
Endless dark void, myriad divine kingdoms.
Boom!!!
Bright light fills the eyes, almost illuminating the entire starry sky. Accompanied by the returning awareness of power, a vast wave is stirred in the depths of the endless void.
In the depths of the dark void, those ancient beings who have awakened, all have a sense of awareness.
[Tyr, is it Korilon's return to the lower realm under the "Cradle"? Didn't you say he had completely fallen and returned to the mortal world? How is it causing such a big commotion now?]
A majestic and sublime voice comes down from the boundless dark sky at the moment the wave stirs in the divine kingdom, faintly echoing with the sound of holy chants in the void.
Within the divine kingdom, the returning God of War and Victory, Ares Tyr, either encountered something in the lower realm of the Cradle or it was due to that divine sound descending from the sky. A trace of displeasure flashed across his face, but it was fleeting. Even the saints singing hymns and psalms below felt it was merely an illusion.
Thoughts raced through his mind in an instant. The God of War and Victory, Ares Tyr, stood amidst vast golden light, his calm voice echoing:
[In that place, I sensed the presence of the Beast God Tos Korilon and traces of faith power nearby... However, that strange blue dragon seems to be a Blue Young Dragon in its childhood phase, with no signs of Korilon's presence on it.]
Recalling the previous situation, the God of War and Victory, Ares Tyr, seemed to show a hint of perplexity on his face.
His voice speculated:
[Either that strange Blue Young Dragon luckily acquired Korilon's legacy, thus growing rapidly to this point, or the Beast God Tos Korilon severed all ties after his fall and rose again using the body of that Blue Young Dragon. However, in my view, the former seems more likely.]
In the endless dark void, a silence prevailed.
Over ten years ago, among the awakened divines present, many were still in a slumbering phase.
Divines,
also vary in strength.
The more powerful a divine's power, the earlier they can awaken.
It is even rumored that since that great war, these lesser power divines fell into slumber early, while those with divine power equivalent to the Twelve Olympian Gods could manifest a sliver of thought to plant certain schemes in advance on the "Cradle Land" during their slumber.
This is why, over the thousands of years of silent time, the influence of the Vatican of these powerful main gods on the "Cradle Land" has weakened but hasn't been completely covered by the torrent of time.
[So Ares, in your view, will this matter affect the stability of the lower realm of the Cradle and disrupt our future plan?]
At this moment, another equally grand voice emerged from the void.
However, compared to the previous voice, this one was clearly weaker, roughly at the same power level as the God of War and Victory, Ares Tyr.
In this voice, there was also some familiarity, suggesting a relationship like friends or allies.
[It should not be too concerning. During that ancient battle, Korilon's divine kingdom was already destroyed, and later there were no traces of "time" being "stolen" once again within the Cradle to evolve into a divine kingdom. Moreover, with the battle over ten years ago, I can be very certain that the "time" he intercepted has completely been sacrificed, and hoping to surpass that power level again within the time-constrain sealed Cradle is utterly impossible.]
The face of the God of War and Victory was hidden within the splendor of divine light, with no one able to discern whether his expression underwent any change.
Only his indifferent and relentless voice echoed in the void:
[Moreover, it's merely a dozen years until the Cradle stabilizes, such a short time, and even if Korilon didn't fall, it's impossible to elevate the divine kingdom and re-ascend the divine throne within such a short time... Therefore, I believe that this matter has little impact on us.]
A dozen years,
For these divines possessing endless time, this indeed counts for nothing, merely a blink of an eye.
Even thousands or tens of thousands of years are merely the time of one slumber, so indeed, for them, a dozen years is very brief.
In ages past, in that endless era of time,
even if a living being took the final step to successfully elevate the divine kingdom and become a god, it would be impossible without a millennium or century of time.
[Since that's the case, let this matter end here. The stability of the Cradle does not allow for any destruction, and before that time comes, no divine is allowed to descend into the mortal world!]
An overwhelming voice echoed in the endless dark void.
It was a kind of majestic imposing presence that covered the universe and held power over the world.
All the awakened divines nodded slightly in a certain direction, indicating that they had received the order.
And then,
that vast pervasive divine majesty faded away,
the God of War and Victory absorbed surrounding divine light of the endless divine kingdom entirely, and the divine kingdom vanished into the boundless dark void, disappearing once more.
The figures in charge had already left, and staying longer had no purpose.
Thus, intertwined divine might in the endless chaotic darkness began to dissipate with the wind, like the receding tide, disappearing and retreating into hidden thoughts.
In the darkness,
the God of Intrigue cast his gaze in the direction of the departing divine kingdom of the God of War and Victory, a mysterious smile on his lips.
[Heh heh, after all this time, even the one known as the most headstrong and reckless in the past, began learning to hide certain things. The changes of the world truly are intriguing, wouldn't you agree, brother?]
Threads of voices entered the ears of a divine hidden entirely in the dark beside him.
The unknown divine gave the God of Intrigue a deep glance,
his voice carrying a significant meaning:
[I remember, in that era, when you sat high in the divine kingdom above the stars, your divine power was at the bottom of all divine systems... Yet now, your revival time is comparable to divines of higher divine power...]
The mysterious divine did not continue speaking,
turning his figure to dissipate and leave.
The God of Intrigue hid in the darkness, his lips always bearing a faint smile indistinctly.
[Indeed, choosing this divine seat initially was merely because it was the weakest and had the least disputes, allowing me to seize the opportunity. Who could have imagined how everything would develop in the future...]
The leisurely voice of the God of Intrigue carried a smile on his lips.
The more intrigue in the world, the stronger his divine power. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Divine machinations were especially so.
The avatar formed by a wisp of black energy transformed into black smoke, merging into the darkness and dissipating as well.
The divines, retreated.
As for everything the God of War and Victory encountered in the Cradle Realm, whether he discovered anything else, no divine knew.
Some divines' eyes flickered, thinking about unknown matters.
Some divines discarded it immediately, as if it never happened.
Every divine perhaps harbors their own schemes.
The myriad patterns of life, divines cannot escape the norm.
And throughout the entire Seta Continent, everything remains as usual, wars are wars, conflicts are conflicts, and events transpiring in the starry sky seem unrelated to them...
