Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

The Sacred Kings and Orgullo were surprised to see Zatiel suddenly disappear like that. There were conflicted emotions in all of them and did not really know what to do right now.

They had won the war, and all their friends and family that perished were in the process of reincarnation, yet there was no jovial aura in them.

What they had learned from the Beyonder showed them how little meaning their great battle had since, from the beginning, they were destined to win. The Knights that nearly pushed them to their end were nothing more than sacrificial pawns, all with the purpose of acting as catalyzers for Zatiel's evolution into the Late Stage Fourth Realm.

If, from the start, the Beyonder and destiny itself had marked their victory, some could not help but wonder if their triumph had any meaning at all. The Sacred Kings were sure that the one that was more affected by those thoughts was no one else but the leader of the Daybreak Universe.

Although Orgullo and the Sacred Kings still did not entirely understand the conversation between Zatiel and the Beyonder, they were able to deduce that there was an all-mighty entity that had put all kinds of test in the Samsara Thearch's path in order to see this one grow.

Being the favorite child of the Origin of All Things was a burden none of the Sacred Kings thought they could endure, and they could only hope that Zatiel could rise above it and not be crushed by nihilism and apathy.

Right now, Zatiel was cruising through the Emptiness at a speed hundreds of times faster than during his last trip at the Peak Middle Stage. There was peace and silence as he folded space over and over again, traveling hundreds of millions of light years every second.

The fact that Zatiel understood the nature of reality and could override it at will did not mean he was not bound by it. Even with his immense power, he had to respect the rules of the Emptiness and could not simply ignore the countless waves of chaotic energy in his path.

Zatiel did not really care about the length of the path since he could use the silence to calm his mind. Unfortunately, while it was the first time it took him several years to reach this destination, this time, it only took a few days.

What appeared in Zatiel's sight were two massive force fields the size of huge universes, one gold and the other dark. Those were no other than Zork and Nork.

"Nork, smash!"

"Zork, shatter!"

"Nork, kick!"

"Zork, block!"

Even after all this time and the wounds left by Zatiel's attack, the duo keep fighting in the same brutish way. There was nothing but killing intent in their eyes as they attacked with all they had.

Zatiel's eyes grew sharp as he pushed his soul force to its peak, allowing him to use True Reality Vision and perceive the actual nature of the duo.

A flash of shock and surprise appeared in Zatiel's eyes as he stared at the duo. Although those emotions were not always pleasant, they made a smile appear on his face.

After his evolution and understanding of the nature of reality, there was a moment in which Zatiel came to think that nothing could surprise him anymore, that the multiverse had lost its color. Yet, Zork and Nork showed him that was clearly not the case.

Like everything else, in True Reality Vision, Zork and Nork were replaced by words depicting their nature and identity. Still, these were written in a different style than the rest of the multiverse, something that did not happen even with the Beyonder.

A flash of enlightenment appeared on Zatiel's face as his smile grew wider.

"A different Verse?" 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

However, Zatiel immediately shook his head since he knew that was only half right. If it was just another Verse, it should not be so different.

"A Verse with a different origin!"

That thought ignited the flame that was slowly dying down inside Zatiel's spirit. There was a moment when he questioned the purpose of his hard work when he always would be the winner in the Daybreak-Verse, but this revelation changed everything.

It was true that the Daybreak-Verse was coming to its end, but that did not mean his story would fade away. That end might just be a new beginning, allowing him to march into unknown lands where new and exciting challenges could arise.

Silver flames burst out of Zatiel's eyes as his willpower was reignited, but soon, a sharp light and killing intent emerged in them.

"The Beyonder's understanding of reality and his knowledge about all mighty beings like the Creator is greater than mine, so he should be aware of this."

Zatiel's killing intent burst as he understood the flaws in the explanation of the Beyonder regarding the nature of reality. The Antagonist withheld information, so a sense of lack of purpose could arise in his heart.

Bursting fighting will emerge from Zatiel's heart. The end of the Daybreak-Verse did not mean the end of his story, but before rising beyond the limitations of the story built around him, there was one last enemy he needed to overcome.

The Beyonder was The Antagonist, the final enemy of the Daybreak-Verse, but this one had already started his evolution beyond that identity.

Zatiel was sure it would be the greatest and most dangerous battle of his life, and relying on the Creator's Path would not be enough since the Beyonder had already proven its ability to rise above it.

However, there was a lot to do before that, and he would start by resurrecting the only two people who were still dead after the war.

A dark red particle and a black-white particle appeared in Zatiel's hands. Those belonged to Ezequiel and Venganza.

Zatiel planned to bring back the two Thearchs but would use the change to help them evolve beyond their previous limitations.
