Chapter 329 - A Prophecy - Rebuttals - Plunder - Helping Hands

"Am I missing something?"

Dia asked the shadow figure in confusion

"When was the last time you looked at the the prophecy?"

"Just recently"

"Ha!! HAHA!"

The shadow figure chuckled loudly

"Then you're as ignorant as everyone present here, isn't that right, Philip?"

The shadow figure turned towards Philip. The highschool boy also gazed towards Philip with excited and interested eyes

"..."

Philip closed his eyes and pulled his finger off Mathilda. He then turned towards everyone and exerted his aura. His eyes shone in yellow light and strands of blood quickly spread around him just in case

Tenshi also flew beside Philip and protected Mathilda behind them

"What do you want, Lemegeton?"

*CRACK*

A deafening shattering and cracking sound reverberated across the space and most of the beings couldn't help but cover their ears and writhe in pain, including Tenshi, Dia, and the transformed Mathilda trembled, except for the highschool boy and Philip

The smiling shadow figure, which was Lemegeton, stopped smiling and his demeanor changed into that of a demon

"You dare say my true name in front of everyone?"

Lemegeton spoke in a calm, but extremely powerful and scary manner. It was like he's ready to kill and mutilate Philip for uttering his true name

"Oh, I'm sorry, Lemegeton Labose Librorum Leviticus-"

「 Photonic Time has been activated 」

"Humph..."

Philip huffed deeply after experiencing his time slowing down three times as his surroundings changed into inverted colors three times. Blood also dripped from his nose

'Goddamnit... I couldn't get used to this sensation'

「 Still, your body is slowly adapting to it. Previously, your sinus would explode and blood would splatter from your nose. Now, you only experience nose bleed 」

'Yeah... I couldn't imagine the higher levels of Bullet Time, if there's any'

「 There are more 」

'Haha...'

Philip giggled internally as he gazed in front of him

He could see Lemegeton suspended in space in front of him with two additional faces

Lemegeton has his right hand extended right in front of his neck. Not only that, two spears are suspended as one of then was about to cut Lemegeton's arm and the other is aiming for his head. These spears are exerting powerful violet auras and shining in intense violet light

The owner of the spears, Sai, was behind Lemegeton with her hand in a shape of a spear that's about to stab Lemegeton from the right side

On the other hand, Alucard is transformed into her degraded Pureblood form with his right hand extending towards Lemegeton. The [Blood Singularity] is conjured on his palm and it's threatening to devour Lemegeton

'Hm... Fascinating...'

Philip observer the [Blood Singularity] for a few seconds inside [Photonic Time]

The singularity seemingly wasn't affected by the slowed time as it kept on spinning and vibrating on a supercritical level. Even so, the singularity wasn't devouring anything around it

This lead Philip to think that changes in time and space doesn't affect singularities and continues its purpose and nature

It could've been also because he's observing the singularity in a higher plane that lead the singularity to this behavior. Like some elements, isotopes, or concepts, just by being observed allows them to decay or disappear

The same thing could've been happening to the [Blood Singularity] and started to vibrate the moment it was observed

Nonetheless, Philip casually pulled the spears away, moved Sai next to Tenshi, extinguished the [Blood Singularity] with his Pureblood coated fingers, and also moved Alucard behind him

He then went back in front of Lemegeton like nothing happened as his hand is still aiming for his neck

'Haaah...'

Philip deactivated [Photonic Time] and time resumed

Lemegeton quickly pulled his arm away after sensing something dangerous in a fraction of a second. Sai stabbed an empty space and Alucard stumbled forward since there was no [Blood Singularity] on his palm

They realized their situation and they are behind Philip and Tenshi

Meanwhile, Lemegeton was startled. The reason he pulled his arm away is not because of Philip, but he already felt that harm will come his way from the Pure and Divinite Solaris Spears

"Haha... Goddess of Another World and Pureblood Vampire, or rather, Vampire King now..."

"Tell me, Secret, what was the prophecy?"

"..."

Philip stopped provoking Lemegeton and got straight to the point. Although, Lemegeton is glaring at Philip with extremely angry eyes

Even if the shadow is shrouding his eyes, Philip could feel the sharp glare

"There is a prophecy made millions of years ago... This is not an ordinary prophecy. It is not like a Divine Prophecy or Mythical Prophecy... It is the Absolute Prophecy..."

The highschool boy spoke on behalf of Lemegeton. This highschool boy is Kamijou, the acting leader of the Religious State of the Four Pillars of the World

"Absolute Prophecy..."

"I'm sure you know what this means, correct?"

"Yes..."

Philip's expression was grave. Based on the Four Absolute Rules of the universe, the word absolute is very powerful and at most, nothing can deny or deflect it, hence it is why that word is inside the Four Rules

"The prophecy states that..."

===

In an unknown timeframe, unknown timeline, unknown time, an absolute change will befall on the universe

Convergence. Centrality. Consolidation

This world is the singularity of the plurality of an ever occuring change

Absolute changes leads to extreme consequences and danger

One of those are the existences outside the universe

An arrival will lead to absolute destruction

Yellow Light. Chaos. Above All

A tournament. The end

Stories are told by a states

End. End. End. End. End

Change

===

"..."

"We deciphered the Absolute Prophecy that was written in different shapes and symbols word by word and letter by letter"

"We don't know the true meaning of this prophecy, but a part of it has been known"

"Drastic changes to the world will attract the attention of multiversal beings outside of the universe"

"We have already approved of the change that was done yesterday, but that still attracted their attention and they sent a messenger, did they not?"

"..."

Lemegeton and Kamijou explained to Philip and everyone present. Lemegeton asked for Philip's confirmation and he didn't respond

"The establishment of the Mystical Leylines is beneficial, but it limits us from the eyes of those beings! So, therefore, we oppose this change and we recommend to stop the development of the leylines to avoid the absolute destruction of the world"

"You should understand, right?"

Dia learned the truth and couldn't help but be conflicted. She is being convinced that she should retract her approval of the establishment of leylines

「 Soul Link has been deactivated 」

"...?!!?!"

Tenshi was startled after recovering from the deafening sound. Soul Link being deactivated can only mean a few things and an automatic deactivation could only mean something bad

Tenshi became extremely tense

"Hah! What a load of bullshit!"

It was then that a voice has overwhelmed the entire space that made everyone shudder, except for the party, Lemegeton, and Kamijou

"Existences outside of the universe?? There's no such things! The universe and the realms are the limit! You're limiting yourselves with this propehcy with unknown origins??? Prophecies are meant to be broken!"

Katara's divine voice entered everyone's ears

"Who are you?!"

Lemegeton asked

"The Goddess of Curses!"

"What generation?!"

Kamijou asked in surprise as he seemingly know how the principles of the Divine Realm

"Second Generation"

"!!!"

Kamijou became startled and kept quiet

"Goddess of Curses... Why are you ignorant? Surely you know this basic knowledge!"

"Basic knowledge or not... I've been living for almost the same time as the universe. Nothing of that sort exists. You also dare call me ignorant? Maybe you're the one who's ignorant?!"

"Watch your mouth! You don't know who I am!"

"Then show yourself and stop hiding behind that veil of shadow!"

"You will die"

"Oh? Are you sure about that?"

"Everyone, stop!"

Tenshi shouted after realizing Philip's situation

Philip's eyes were empty. His pupils are like the screen of a television with static and it gives an eerie feeling

The gyroscope of his body is going haywire, like he feels like he's about to twist and tumble for no apparent reason

All of his abilities are not responding

「 Absolute Prophecy????? There's no such thing as that! 」

『 Consolidating earned stories throughout your lifetime... 』

At this moment, a powerful explosion of darkness exploded from Philip and devoured absolutely everything and rendered them deleted into oblivion

A tear flowed down from Philip's right eye after sensing that Tenshi disappeared

But before Philip would break free from his stasis and wreak chaos, the darkness quickly converged back into him and changed everything

Tenshi was the way she is, but she's starting to empower Mathilda. Every beings previously was also here, but they weren't furious or angry at the establisment of the leylines

In fact, everyone raised their hands and released their energy to condense the leylines into a more sturdy and durable network

Alucard, Sai, and Katara were nowhere to be found since they are still on the roof of the mansion

"Do they need our help?"

Sai asked

"No... They're fine"

Alucard smiled and continued to watch as the night sky is faintly turning yellow

"Awaiting further instructions..."

Mathilda spoke, waiting for her next move

"Philip, we're ready"

Tenshi smiled and called for him

"Philip! This is a great idea! Thank you for taking the initiative to deploy this leylines after a long time!"

Lemegeton spoke as he didn't raise his hand, including Kamijou. They then disappeared as all the beings present flew in several directions, helping Tenshi's influence to spread without problems

"..."

The light in Philip's eyes returned and he looked extremely confused
