Author's Note: There has been a time-skip of 1 year, as you can guess from the title. Not 2 years later though as there are still some important things that will be shown in this chapter that might (or might not) be important to the story. We will first be starting with the point of view of the last Titan. If you don't know any character like that, check Chapter 32: The Unsealing's Consequences. All right, go back to reading the chapter!
********************
It took me an awfully long time but, it seems like I have found the correct spot. I could have done all of this in an instant with the power I have but, that is so boring. It would have been much better for me to actually put in some work instead.
Plus, what would a year and a half be compared to how long I have lived. This world is still going to be destroyed sooner than later anyway so, I should at least check it out before all of it wiped away. Also, it seems like this place has a much stronger feel to it than the other worlds I have checked out. As expected of an Origin World, though it is the youngest one.
Of course, I only wasted my time because I can. I still remember why am I am here and why I am trying to destroy this world in the first place. I just sent Tekko to see what is inside and, I wasn't disappointed with the results. It seems like this is the main gathering place of a group of people who call themselves the Black God's Axis.
According to Tekko, they seem to worship something called the Black God who governs the cycle of life and death. The cycle part is very convenient as I will be able to twist my words for them so they believe me. It's showtime.
- A FEW MINUTES LATER -
"Hey, what are you doing here!?"
"This is the holy place of worship!"
"Only people who worship the Black God can come inside!"
There are so noisy. Should I probably kill all of the ones he keep shouting? No, it will only make them lose all sense of reason and attack me. I can easily kill all of them but, I can't just exterminate a major puppet group like that. They will be very essential for my plan.
"You don't need to fear me. I do worship the Black God. However, I wish to fight your leader so, please call him over here."
"Y-you dare want to fight our leader?!"
"I do. As I just said, call him here."
"No need. So, what do you want."
I watched as a muscular man came out of the crowd. I figured that their leader would be someone more... ordinary. I thought that I would easily make him surrender in a fight. But, this is much more interesting as I sense a great deal of power from him. It is still insignificant compared to me but, if they see someone as powerful as him fall then, they will respect my power over them.
"I already said that I wish to fight."
"Why do want to? We are an obscure group that minds their own business. What benefits could you possibly gain from this?"
"I just want to show how important I am going to be to your group. There will be people who doubt me so, I want to show them."
"I see. If I beat you, do you promise to never show up here again?"
"Sure. IF you can beat me."
The muscular man then puts on a giant set of armor on him. The Origin Worlds are the worlds that were formed by the imaginations of the Divine. Since this world is the youngest, it was also the last one to be formed. The imaginations of the Divine had run out and so, to add an unpredictable factor, they made a random system for this world.
That random system were the manifestation of things called abilities. Everything alive has their own personal ability and no 2 abilities are the exact same, though they can be extremely similar. I wonder what kind of ability he has. I will just hit him with a very light attack. Maybe a 5% flick.
"Ready or not, here I come."
I casually walk up to him and flick my finger at his chest. He then gets blown away by the impact and hits the wall with a giant thud. I guess my expectations were a bit too high. I doesn't seem like I have killed him yet though.
"Leader, are you alright!?"
"Don't worry. I told all of you before that I will always protect you guys so, there is no need for your worries. Plus, you know what my fighting style is."
Oh?
He recovered that quickly from my attack? He also mentioned what his fighting style is. Is he suited for taking a hit and then counter-attacking? Right when I thought that, he rushed at me and prepared a punch to my face. He really is planning to kill me.
"This will be your end! Concentrated Energy Break!"
*Rrriiippp!!!*
The man's arm then breaks off. What was he trying to do with that attack?
"No way. That power was enough to rip my arm off. Hey, Genero, a little help, please?"
"Yes, Sir!"
Another man comes out from the crowd. This one looks much more regular and looks like that sort of stranger you would see anywhere. He asked for help, meaning that this, Genero, has a power that must be related to healing.
"Here you go, Quantix!"
Wow, his ability is amazing. His power seems to be the regeneration of lost body parts. He will definitely be a key part for my plan.
"I won."
"Yes, you did. So, what do you plan on doing with us now?"
"I don't have any malicious intentions, you see. I am actually a servant under your Black God. I became this powerful because of the power he granted me. I was forewarned of the destruction of your world using my powers given to me and have come to you to help me save this world."
"You actually... work for the Black God?"
"Yes, I do. I wanted to fight you to show that I have indeed gotten powers from our God. Also, you all want protection, yes? Who better to protect you than one of the trusted servants of our great God?"
"I see. Are all of you alright with this?!"
""""""""""We are okay with this! The Black God has come to protect us and we can save this world!""""""""""
"Everyone seems to be alright with this. So, would you please grant us the honor of knowing your name, Great Seer?"
"My name is Astaroth."
That was the first encounter between the last of the Titans, Astaroth, and the Black God's Axis. This encounter would be the reason why the Axis would become an important group in history for the future generations.
