Established Pinnacle: The Enigma-Chapter 232 Slaughter Above The Clouds, Civil War Of The Gods II

Her questions, tone and behavior left everyone shocked. Though they knew she was strict, since she was one of the few surviving beings of the past, they didn't expect her to flare up all of a sudden.

Especially on her own brother!!!

"...."

"How bold of you to say that before the King's child and wife, junior sister." Bellum didn't flinch back and retorted while looking at her directly in the eyes, not willing to back down at all.

"They can kill me for all I care. I am the Goddess of Truths, I never lie. What kind of competent King would suddenly disappear without saying anything to their subordinates?

"Leaving their palace in chaos and still not returning. The wife and child aren't even trying to explain anything at all, what am I suppose to say? Congratulations?

"Or lie and claim that they are Almighty and Omnipotent? I've grown up with both his and her highness, and I can swear that they are not omnipotent at all, Far from it, even.

"I have seen them make mistakes and grow up by learning to cover them up. That was why I voted him as Lord of the Cloud Palace instead of the Radiant King, who is too emotional.

"But then, this level of betrayal of my expectations has wounded me greatly. I'm severely disappointed. Aria, I mean you too. I really am disappointed in you the most, little one." She said, her emotions rising and subsiding with every sentence.

Everyone was once again shocked. This woman had the guts to say that to the Grand Queen of the Cloud Palace, the second strongest after the King of Gloom.

"B-Big sister Veritas..?" Scien gently called out in fear as she shrunk back. She didn't like where this was going, 'Why is the situation so out of hand today?'

Though she knew that Veritas was strong, her power only shined in cases where Doomsday was coming. Either than then, she was your average Rokushiki.

"I'm leaving, do not disturb me regardless of the situation. I will not leave my palace unless his highness knocks on my door himself or my father fetches me himself." Veritas said, turning around and preparing to leave.

Her stubbornness was evident, as everyone here knew that Veritas had no father. And even if she had, they would be long dead by now, as these were her words!!

Then that meant that she was bent on staying within her Palace this time around!!!

"Veritas, watch your tone!!!" Raven smacked the table in rage and tried to stop her. But Veritas also didn't spare him from giving him a piece of her mind.

"Or what? Who must I respect, you? Don't make me laugh Raven. Instead of trying to calm the Main Palace down and doing something responsible and more mature for your age, you are here trying to woo a married woman.

"You make me sick. Even that war-loving-fool of a senior brother, Bellum, is more respect-worthy than you. Or did you mean Aria? You expect me to show respect to someone who cannot even respect themselves? Alright, just watch me then.

"Watch me disregard any of you and leave. Or Aria... do you have a problem with that? If so, say it, I'm willing to lend you an ear." She concluded while turning to look at the mature women in blinding light.

Her expressionless face watched Aria and waited for an answer, but recieved none. In fact, it seemed as if Aria was avoiding her gaze at all cost necessary.

"...."

"Anyone else? Young prince?" Not content, she turned her gaze to the young man who was made out of blinding light and intensely stared at him.

Before her gaze, his glow seemed to dim quite a bit, as if it's own luster had shrunk back into his being, also trying to avoid her.

"...."

"Nobody? Then you can continue with your little play. I will not participate in this childish ploy of yours." She scoffed and hurriedly left just like that, leaving everyone flabbergasted.

They had similar meetings before and Veritas was always strict and against their plans. But for some reason, today, she didn't want anything to do with them at all.

As if she was severing ties with them!!

"B-Big sister, wait up... E-Excuse me... Bellum, tonight, my room. We need to talk." Scien also hurriedly stood up, bowed to everyone in a flustered manner and left as well. She wasn't as bold nor as strong as Veritas.

"...."

"...."

The place was left in silence as the remaining four Rokushiki sat by themselves and had their individual thoughts.

"...Dad was right, Lady Veritas was the first to blow her top off." The young man exclaimed in wonder when he was sure that Veritas was completely gone.

"...Let her be. Whatever happens, I will also not participate in the illusory ploy of your father. You can do anything you want child, but mother will be up in the stars if you need me." Aria said and vanished out of thin air.

Everyone knew that Veritas, was unrivaled below the Heavens. Despite her position, she was actually a match for the King of Gloom... her only weakness was Bellum, her senior brother, and cousin.

"...Haah~ Dad, this is your biggest mistake so far. Though I understand, that doesn't mean I'm willing to participate as well, what crappy Eternity? This is only destroying you." The young boy also thought out loud before vanishing as well.

The place was left in silence as Bellum and Raven sat on their thrones by themselves. The twelve servents behind them, with Cosmological battle power, slowly left one by one, leaving four behind.

"...."

"Oh well, since everybody does what they like, I'll just go ahead and invade the Radiant Empire. I wonder if that new Anti-God candidate is as strong as his presence... or if he really is who I think he is." He said before standing up and leaving.

Along the way, he stopped and turned to look back at Raven, he smirked and added, "Who knew, that I'd one day be loved more than you, pretty boy. Hahaha."

With that, he left in a boisterous manner, his voice ringing out loud throughout the whole Cloud Palace. Unrestrained and powerful, like a Wargod King.

"...."

? ? ?

Time was irrelevant in the God Realm, and the Cluod Palace was also part of the God Realm. Hence its time, was the God's time.

Four months flashed by instantly, and chaos happened everywhere within the Cloud Palace. The Cloud Palace, also recieved its Chaos... beknowest to those in the Radiant Divine Empire.

Battles and discord soon easily followed.

Bellum didn't seem to care as he sent his palace everywhere, battling every Rokushiki as if he was Possessed. Well, he only attacked the young prince, Scien and Raven.

He lost without a chance before he could even think about attacking Veritas. She had visited him before hand and humbled him with one sentence.

One sentence at that. And though nobody knew what it truly was, it was able to humble an unreasonable War-crazy God like Bellum, who feared no other. Even amongst his siblings.

As for the others, be it the prince, Raven or Scien, they were all above Cosmological Gods. And unlike Veritas, Aria and the King of Gloom, who have surpassed that said realm.

But within the God Realm, their strength was limited. Bellum was currently a peak God Lord, a variation of a Cosmological God, but able to overpower and rule over other Cosmological Gods.

Raven was a perfected God Lord, Scien was a mid-ranked God Lord and the prince was an Initial God Lord, but within the Cloud Palace, he was only below his parents in terms of power and might.

Despite being one minor realm weaker, Bellum was still a rare gem and Veritas' senior brother. He was able to fight Raven to a standstill and even push him back.

Mind you, the latter had his Domain manifested, innumerable Realities within his own Chaos, at his beck and call, and yet, he still lost to Bellum... Who used only his physical prowess!!!

Unlike the mortal and Deity realms, Gods could not skip realm Suppression, because the difference between each minor realm was vast. Especially among the Greater Divinities and above. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Even a champion like Code, will only be able to skip one or two minor realms when fighting Gods, by the time he becomes one himself. Meaning that if he becomes an initial Minor God, he would be able to fight mid-ranked Minor Gods or peak Minor Gods.

This also included the monsters of the Green River Empire such as Nia and the others, who also had terrifying talents and might thanks to a certain someone. It was different for True Gods though... As these beings could still dominate those stronger, even when Suppressed.

"Senior brother Bellum still hasn't stopped yet?" Veritas inquired, sitting on a sofa, relaxing herself and enjoying the services of Scien, whom she doted on.

"Yes, he seems content on spilling more blood and gathering it to cause a rain of Providence within the mortal world." Scien responded as she fed Veritas grapes, her tone discontent and full of annoyance.

Especially considering that Bellum did not even spare her, even after the intense battle they had for weeks on end, four months ago. He had won two completely different battles against her.

How rude!!!

She was a talented young woman, who was found by Veritas during the last Era. She was there before the Ancient Gods fought amongst themselves.

Throughout the process, she had met Bellum, and had developed feelings towards him. To the point where, without knowing how, she found herself entangled with him.

Thus increasing her talent, and Physiology. And from then on, they became as close as they were. After surviving an Era of Discord, she had no ambitions or the likes.

All she wanted was to study knowledge, and further improve within the Inheritance of Wisdom that she obtained from both Veritas and Bellum. She was a God Lord today because of it.

"Okay then." Veritas ended the conversation there and silently continued to be spoiled by Scien. She then asked, "By the way, how's the Radiant Empire going?"

Scien didn't know how to progress the conversation, until Veritas changed the topic. She happily jumped in and hurriedly replied, afraid that she might die of embarrassment.

"The Radiant Empire has been doing quite well recently. I heard that the past four months, three immensely talented beings had arrived. Rumor has it that they had become 'Gods' four months ago."

She said, like a chatterbox while happily feeding Veritas, who was now intrigued and urged her to continue with her words.

"Hmm, where should I start..? Oh, these people might be the ones who killed your senior sister, the Goddess of Discord and Abomination. Though her power was reduced greatly, I still don't believe that someone at your level of power can so easily die.

"And even if there are a lot of Minor and Major Gods down there, there shouldn't be able to kill an Ancient Goddess at all. Not even if we include all the Cosmological Gods as well. But...

"I'm not really sure how, her presence completely vanished and no God knows how. Even my subordinate, the God of Secretes, failed to pull out the truth." She said with a sigh, her hands not stopping at all.

Then as if she thought of something, she looked at Veritas and excitedly said, "Big sister, maybe if you do something, you can find out the truth about this matter!!"

She was right, either than Veritas, nobody was good at finding out the truth about things. Even secrets and rumours were something she could derive and find them.

Be it herself, who ruled over Knowledge and Wisdom, and watched over the [Scien Springs], that had Boundless Cosmic Knowledge... she still paled in comparison.

Her powers were not yet Absolute after all. At most, they were at the Nascent level, and that was not even enough to Know everything within the God Realms!!!
