Chapter 131:
The chronolux was silent.
Not the silence of peace, but the silence of something far beyond comprehension. The kind that stretched across infinity itself. The kind that made even the strongest warriors hesitate. The kind that foretold the birth of a calamity.
The Void expanded, spiraling outward, consuming all in its path. Space fractured, time distorted, reality itself twisted, warping under the sheer magnitude of what had just been unleashed.
And at the center of it all—
Yami.
She floated within the abyss, her form barely visible against the writhing shadows. Her long, beautiful midnight purple hair swayed unnaturally, drifting as if caught in an unseen current. Her arms hung limp at her sides, her fingers twitching faintly, her breathing slow, almost nonexistent.
Her body radiated power, but something was wrong.
Terribly wrong.
Noboru felt it instantly.
The surge of Void Omni Energy was unlike anything he had ever encountered. It wasn't controlled. It wasn't precise. It wasn't even natural.
It was unstable.
It wasn't her doing this.
He would know he had experienced her when he went to his past life.
He experienced her in everyway and can tell something was wrong.
This wasn't Yami awakening to her full strength.
This wasn't Yami awake.
She was being overwhelmed by something or someone.
Her body convulsed slightly, her brows furrowing, her lips parting like she was trying to speak—but no words came out.
The Void kept spreading, faster and faster.
Consuming and turning everything it consumed to nothing
Noboru narrowed his eyes.
"This isn't right."
His hands clenched into fists as he stepped forward, his gaze locked on Yami's unconscious form.
The Void wasn't stopping.
It should've stabilized the moment she was freed—her control over it should've kicked in. But instead, it was still growing, consuming everything in its path, devouring reality without end.
And then—
He felt it.
A second presence.
It was faint. Subtle. Hidden beneath the chaotic waves of Void Energy, buried deep within Yami's overflowing power.
But Noboru recognized it.
It made his blood boil instantly.
It was HIM.
Yahweh.
His Omni Energy was inside her.
More specifically in her head.
The realization hit Noboru like a blade to the gut. His heart pounded, his fingers twitching as his crimson gaze sharpened with pure, unfiltered rage.
"That bastard…" His voice was low, seething, dangerous.
His muscles tensed, his entire being trembling with barely-contained fury.
Yahweh had done something to her.
Something terrible.
Something unnatural.
And he knew it.
Yami wasn't in control. She wasn't doing this—she was caught inside it, her body acting as a vessel for something beyond her will.
"What did he do to you…?" Noboru whispered, his voice shaking slightly. "What the hell did that bastard do to you?"
Every instinct in his body screamed at him to go to her. To pull her out, to stop whatever the hell was happening. To stop whatever hell she was experiencing.
But before he could move—
he heard Laughter.
A slow, condescending chuckle echoed through the battlefield, cutting through the chaos like a dagger of pure mockery.
Hikari.
Noboru's gaze snapped to him, his expression darkening. His own Crimson Red mixed with Black Omni Energy was leaking as Noboru tried to get himself under control.
Hikari stood tall, his golden form glowing brighter than ever. His expression wasn't angry. It wasn't even frustrated.
It was amused.
Mocking.
Smug.
The kind of look that made Noboru want to rip his head off his shoulders.
"Oh, poor little abomination," Hikari sneered, his lips curling into a cruel smirk. "Finally catching on, are we?"
Noboru didn't respond. He just stared, his crimson eyes burning.
Hikari spread his arms dramatically, like a performer on a stage.
"You really thought it would be that simple, didn't you?" His voice dripped with arrogance. "You thought you could just break father's weapon out of Father's little prison and everything would go back to normal?"
He laughed again, shaking his head.
"You are such an idiot, Noboru."
Noboru's fingers twitched, his nails digging into his palm.
"Explain. Now." His voice was like ice. A demand, not a request.
Hikari raised an eyebrow. "Oh? And if I don't?"
A pulse of pure killing intent erupted from Noboru, shaking the entire battlefield.
Hikari's smirk faltered—just for a second.
"Explain," Noboru repeated, "or I break every bone in your body before you even get to blink."
Hikari clicked his tongue. "Tsk. So impatient." But then, his grin widened again. "Fine. I'll tell you. It's only fair, after all."
He took a step forward, tilting his head slightly.
"You see, abomination…" His golden eyes flickered with something dark. "Did you really think Father would just let her sit there in that prison for all eternity without making her useful?"
Noboru's stomach dropped.
No.
No, no, no…
Hikari smirked, enjoying the way realization slowly dawned on Noboru's face.
"That's right."
He gestured toward Yami's unconscious, unstable form.
"She's not just waking up, Noboru. She's programmed."
Noboru's blood ran cold.
"What the hell did he do?" His voice was barely above a whisper.
Hikari's grin widened.
"He made her his fail-safe."
A pulse of golden Omni Energy flickered around him, illuminating his features in a sickening glow.
"She's not just some imprisoned Queen of the Void anymore." He chuckled, his tone almost mockingly sympathetic.
"She's Father's contingency plan."
Noboru felt like his entire world shifted.
Hikari's smirk grew sharper.
"And the best part?" His voice dropped to a whisper.
"She doesn't even know it."
"Once your dead I will have father wake her up so we can show her what she has done to you."
"Then she will break and i take her as my pet. Oh i can imagine it Abomination your concubine serving me. It would be the biggest fuck you to you. Too bad Ayame was made to love you or i would take her too for my self but we can't have anything."
Hikari mockingly said.
Noboru's breath hitched with anger and rage.
Hikari's laughter rang through the battlefield.
"Oh poor abomination you always lose your loved ones don't you. Just like that worthless grandfather of yours. Just like your kingdom, your family, and now her"
And the Void continued to expand.
