Chapter 188 Pandava
Boku saw the morning sun starting to appear from the eastern horizon. He was standing on top of the wall that the goblins managed to build in such a short amount of time. Today was the day the war against the Quadruple Arachnids Colony would be fought for the first time in Bitter Maja. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮
The monsters have prepared everything they can to defend their newly built kingdom. But in the process, no one can say if they will win this battle for sure.
The Quadruple Arachnids Colony was not an opponent they could underestimate. They have more numbers than all the monsters and they are also stronger. The only advantage the Wilwatikta Kingdom had over the Quadruple Arachnids Colony was that they were smarter than those bugs. However, their advantage could not ensure victory because gradually the Quadruple Arachnids Colony began to learn and use different strategies in battle.
Because of that once again the monsters had to lay their lives on Moku's back. Because if there's anything that keeps the monsters from running away when they find out that a Quadruple Arachnids Colony is approaching, it's their belief in Moku. They believe that Moku is the messenger of their god, The One. They believe that Moku will never lose even if he has to fight hundreds of Arachnid Bees. They believe that if their death is not the end, they will meet their family again in The One's Heaven.
The teachings of The One's religion have seeped into the lives of the monsters so that they believe in it from the bottom of their hearts. Therefore they are not afraid of death and instead wait for it to come.
Boku tightly held the Twin Arachnid Bee Mandible Golden Claymore in his hand. He recalled the meeting that took place inside the tent three days ago. At that time Luna's explanation about how a female human transforms into a valkyrie almost made the monsters die of shame.
However, Luna's final explanation regarding the possibility of using the 'infant orc self-preservation instinct in the womb' to seal the constellation made the meeting open up new possibilities. According to Luna if the valkyries were able to control the 'infant orc self-preservation instinct in the womb' then they could use it to seal constellations that even Moku couldn't find with his inner eyes.
But this possibility can only be done by Nevare who has fully transformed into a valkyrie and has succeeded in changing her mana flow to become a constellation. For a valkyrie who was pregnant with an orc baby for the first time, the chances of them being able to do so were so small as to be close to impossible.
This is because the 'infant orc self-preservation instinct in the womb' will focus more on changing their mother's body to become stronger. So if the mother forces herself then her transformation into a valkyrie will be disrupted which causes their bodies to not have the full regeneration and defense capabilities of orc bodies.
Hearing that explanation from Luna, Nevare's face turned very serious. She asked Moku for time to do close-door training after the war was over. She would only come out when the baby was about to be born or after she managed to seal her constellation. Moku just nodded and told Nevare to be careful and not rush to succeed.
Even though the valkyrie problem has been solved, the problems of the two asuras (Boku and Goku) have not been solved. Their plan to ask Nevare's help as a mediator instead became Nevare's place to solve the Valkyrie problem. But since they didn't have a chance to talk, the two asuras could only heave a deep sigh and resigned themselves to solving their own problems without Moku's help.
However, when their meeting was disbanded, Moku asked the two asuras to stay. Of course, this surprised the two asuras, they thought that Moku wanted to ask about their progress in learning the Bhimasuta Mantra. However, as if he could read their minds, Moku said that he would help them to develop the Pringgadani Mantra towards Mana Organ Weapon.
Moku gets inspiration from mana's consciousness, he sees that energy can have its own consciousness and will. He didn't know how mana's consciousness was formed, whether it was formed naturally along with the existence of the world or was formed by a collection of mage's minds that drew their strength from mana.
For the first possibility, there is a possibility if mana's consciousness is the same as world will or if in a wuxia novel it is called heaven's will. If that's the case then mana's consciousness is a form of law that exists in the world like the laws of physics that existed in the previous Moku world. In this way, it is impossible for mana's consciousness to be changed and it is not affected by the mages who take power from it. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎
But for the second possibility, mana's consciousness is a collection of the subconscious minds of the mages connected to it. For this reason, mana's consciousness is not independent and depends on the mages. So this second possibility allows mages to regulate the laws of the world and those with the power to be more closely connected to the core of mana's consciousness will be able to control the world.
If mana's consciousness is formed as a result of this second possibility then in this world there really is a god who rules it. If that was the case then the Tree of life, Yggdrasil, Zelos, Heles, and other gods worshiped by mana species did exist but they were so powerful that Moku couldn't sense their presence.
However, this second possibility is very small because if there really is someone who controls mana's consciousness, then they will not only create clumps of mana to kill the orcs when they evolve, but they will come alone and slaughter all the monsters that exist. There is also the possibility that their strength is so great that they are unable to enter the world because their existence could destroy the world itself such as the reason why strong cultivators cannot enter the mortal world like in Xianxia novels.
Moku doesn't care what actually happens to mana's consciousness, but the possibility if an energy can have its own consciousness opens up the possibility of the development of Pringgadani Mantra.
Moku explains to Boku and Goku about the Mind Realm. In the Mind Realm, all things can be formed just by imagining them but it is just like a shell with no substance inside. This was because the Mind Realm was incapable of producing sin so all that was formed there was just like dead dolls.
Moku explains to Boku and Goku that he will create a new world within the Mind Realm, he will name that world Pandavas, a world where the gods live. He will use this world to place his consciousness on the Pandavas so that he can be free from the after effect of losing the sin of sloth.
Not only that, in the Pandavas he can also make a divine shell, even though this shell will be connected to his weapon, namely the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit. Even though this divine shell was still empty, when he linked it to the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit, gradually this divine shell would soon be filled with Weapon Intent.
This Weapon Intent will create awareness as well as the creation of mana's consciousness in the second possibility. This awareness will help Moku to use the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit when he fights. Because the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit is only a shell, so when he gets a stronger weapon later he can still use the Weapon Intent that is inside the divine shell when he transfers it into a new weapon.
Moku didn't know what kind of power would be generated when he used the weapon intent inside the divine shell but he was sure that his strength would be many times that of Pringgadani Mantra. But all of this can only be done when Moku manages to open the third evolution gate and truly becomes a Mind Realm creature.
Right now, when viewed from the perspective of the Mind Realm world, he was just a baby still in the womb. When he managed to open the third evolution gate, Moku was just like a newborn Mind Realm creature. Even though he was just born, he will still have the right to make his own place to live in the Mind Realm like Mak Lampir.
Moku promised to give Boku and Goku a separate place in the Pandavas, then he would also make a new divine shell that would be connected to the weapons of the two of them. That way Boku and Goku will also be able to build their own Weapon Intent. However, with the prerequisites, Boku and Goku must open the second evolution gate and activate their Kasutpada Kacarma sandals. Because without those two things, Goku and Boku will never be able to enter the Mind Realm freely.
Moku's promise made Boku and Goku very happy, they couldn't wait to open their second evolution gate and activate the Kasutpada Kacarma sandals. But all that has to wait for this war to end.
"Boku, the enemy is approaching, estimated 30 minutes upon contact" Reha who sat on his shoulder reported the info from headquarters.
Boku nodded, "I know" he already saw the black ocean getting closer.
