Established Pinnacle: The Enigma-Chapter 167 Battle Among Gods I

?Everyone else was silent after hearing Reynolds opinion. It was quite true after all, and a terrifying thought. The possibility of his words being true were quite high. Nothing was predetermined in this world.

"...Maybe we should put more effort scouting talent?" Herara said after her silence. Reynolds agreed to the words but added a question of hos own, "Yes, but what if they don't reincarnate here, but within the place they remember best?"

"...Isn't that the God Realm? Or is it the Cloud Palace?" She answered without much confidence. Everyone was too absorbed into the conversation they didn't realize that Reynold seemed... more mature and dependable at the moment.

"The Cloud Palace is relatively new. The place that the ancient gods know best would definitely be the...?" Instead of giving an answer, Reynolds instead continued to tease their knowledge with hints and unnecessary pauses.

"...uh, the Abyss?" Herara asked.

"Purgatory?" Hera inquired as well

"Those two as well, but according to our history, wasn't the Middle Realm the only Realm back then?" Seeing as they were not getting through the answer, Reynolds ended up answering with a sigh of disappointment.

"Then..?!" Herara exclaimed in shock as she thought of a possibility. Rodriguez and Hera also thought of it as well. "Yes, the most reincarnated Prehistoric Gods would definitely be down there." Reynolds affirmed her thoughts.

"Unfortunately we cannot go there." Rodriguez poured water over their head for the nth time today. But they all ignored him.

"The first Calamity has arrived, I believe this is a nice cover for the Ancient Origins and also the best place for them to regain their strength the fastest." Reynolds layed out his thoughts to everyone.

"By the end of the third Calamity, would there be tens of Gods more than there currently are?" Herara thought. The Cloud Palace was formed during the God Realm's Divine Calamity, where multiple Gods were born.

"I believe at most hundreds. And the death rate might also be the highest this time around. Maybe half or more will be slaughtered." Reynolds denied her thoughts by shaking his head and added his own.

"...."

Just thinking about it was terrifying alone, let alone experiencing it happen. This Cataclysm was definitely not normal, it's Calamities were too already too deadly. Let out it's final phase, the Divine Calamity.

"During the second Calamity, when we can finally go down, be sure to target the place with the highest progression and pull in people with high talents towards us." Herara declared with a stern expression towards the Heroes.

"Indeed, at most it will begin in fifty years at most. With the strongest being a Deity Lord now, it would take even a talented Chosen seventy years to become a genuine Demigod.

"But Ancient beings should have high talents. Any one who becomes a Demigod before the start of the second Calamity is a target. We have to pull in talents before the Gods can descent during the third Calamity." Hera also chimed in.

"Agreed. I'll stop joking around and treat this seriously as well... hey, believe me, I swear. Hey, hey, listen to me guys." Rodriguez also added but nobody believed him, causing him to smile bitterly.

Reynolds ignored everything else and looked up with a reminiscent expression on his face, to everyone, he looked quite thoughtful and lost. But deep down, he knew, that everything was a lie.

"Ting!!!"

"You have awakened the "History Mender" Administrator"

"You have recieved the Karmic Divine Skill "Karmic Casualty""

"Karmic Casualty: Depending on how you alter Reality with your actions and change the Fates of people, you will recieve a corresponding gift from Karma in the form of "World Manifestation", depending on the kind of Fate you change. Recieved "Karmic Manipulation" and "Casualty Manipulation" Unique skills" 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

"World Manifestation: A mere copy of Meta Miracle Embodiment that can either create anything out of Originity or affect Reality into your favor or against you. Has an Absolute Effect under the hands of the World Will"

"Warning: Higher... no, Abnormal existences have been detected. The host is warned to not go against them with their current strength or ever, if necessary"

"...Please"

Reynolds bitterly cried inside. This regulator thing was cold and robotic at first, but suddenly became meek at the end. Sounding as if it was begging even. What happened to showing no emotions, huh?

This made him believe that, the Four Extreme Emperors, the strongest existences below the Older Gods who chose their own Fate and sealed it through death by themselves... were monsters.

'...This life, will be a hard one from now on. Please, someone give me your blessings. Haah~.' He thought.

? ? ? ? ?

Meanwhile, At The Battlefield

Things were not so... smooth~

At the battlefield, Allen flew with his brothers, one on each side as they neared towards the directions of the Goddess of Abomination and Discord.

She was thrown quite far away, making sure that the battle would not affect the royalties much. Nor the Heroes that were not at the level of Gods yet, such as Bella, Jim, John and the others, or those like Florence.

Allen was also looking forward to learning more about the Outer Gods of this place. Things such as, what defined them as Outer beings? What was special about their kind? What kind of Existences were they, to be so terrifying?

Such questions also haunted Enigma and his curiosity. Thus, this was not just a battle, but a session for them to learn more about the Outer Gods of the Infinite Realms.

"Careful." Allen warned, because as they flew, a beam of highly concentrated light pieced through the air, and went straight towards the brothers.

Allen paused his flight and flew up at full speed. Su Han and Enigma both flew towards the left and the right respectively. They all avoided the highly concentrated beam of light, fluently and perfectly at that.

But behind them were two Heroes.

Killer, who was ahead of Code, felt the death threat and hurriedly transformed into a bolt of purple light. She then burst up instantly, vanishing into the clouds.

But unfortunately for Code, who was much slower, and due to his nigh-indestructible body, was struck by the beam of light. His body, felt no threat from the beam and thus did not warn him to dodge in time.

"Shi-–"

Boom!!!

He was striked by the beam, and sent back where he came from. He collided into a large mountain hundreds of miles back, and resulted into a large explosion that kicked up a mushroom-like cloud of smoke and dust.

Killer paused to take a second look, but moved on after that. The three brothers did not even pause to check what the situation was behind them. They had more important matters to focus on at the moment.

Allen, who flew up to avoid the hyper concentrated beam of light, found himself face to face with yet another hyper concentrated beam of light.

"...."

And it was very much obvious that, when he avoids this attack, there was another that would meet him half way through. But nonetheless, he still avoided the attack, for he had no choice but to avoid.

He pushed himself to the sides and avoided the hyper concentrated beam of light. But just as he thought, another hyper concentrated beam of light was already headed towards him as we speak.

In fact, it was quite close.

So close that, he could barely avoided it in time. Barely, though. For who was Allen? He was a heaven defying geniuses who was one sidedly loved by Space itself. And he himself fell in love with Time.

He used an Extra Skill to hurriedly teleport his figure away from his initial position. This caused the hyper concentrated beam of light to miss its target, and piece through the clouds off into the distance.

But Allen did no relax.

For more hyper concentrated beams of light were flying towards him at terrifying speeds. Luckily, the Extra Skill "Instant Teleportation" was but an Extra Skill at the end of the day.

And as a god, it's cost was quite negligent to him. Especially its side effects, that were easily overwritten. He could spam it for however long he desired. The only problem was that, it covered a very small range.

Of even ten miles at that.

"...."

But for this situation, it was more than enough. Thus, Allen easily teleporter back and forth, avoiding an entire barrage of hyper concentrated beams of light. Which he deduced that each, could bisect the entire Universe in half.

The concentrated energy used in its formation was too intense. Far intense than anything one could find within the Universe, hence making it quite devastating.

As he dodged, a sudden thought hit him as he decided to check how his brothers were doing. First was Enigma, considering that the dude was sick, and needed special attention at the moment, he had to be of more focus.
