"...!"
"...lip!!"
"Philip!!!"
My ears were ringing, but it quickly subsided when a loud yet lovely voice was filling my ears
"Ugh...!"
However, I feel like as if my body is breaking down. It's the same as when I caught a cold and my body just refuses to heal
My body is so fucking heavy!
I shook my head to regain my composure. I was standing on top of a concrete rubble. I was also holding a relatively large object in my hands and I was in a position of holding a sword to my right side with the blade touching the ground due to its weight
I remember. This is an exclusive sword the only I can use in the whole existence. It is a sword with seven unique properties combined into one
The sword looks like a giant Buster Sword with a lot of interlocking components and layers of important parts. As the body of the sword is fairly thick, it goes thinner and thinner as it goes into the tip. The tip is almost as sharp as a needle and it still gets thinner at the quantum level
There are also levitating parts revolving around the blade. The blade faintly glows in seven different colors, but not the main colors of the rainbow
This is the K.W.A.Y.P.A.D. Sword. A fusion of seven different swords that only has four properties. Erasure, Deletion, Cancelation and Negation
It erases, deletes, and negates anything it touches with the exchange of the user's life force, which is me. However, the penalty doesn't affect me since I have the ใ Immortality ใ trait
I didn't want to have this trait, but it was needed to enter the [Room of Rooms] to allow me to stay alive in that place
"Agh..."
My body actually hurts. Shit
*BOOM*
*SHING*
*BANG*
"..."
I looked around me and it's chaos everywhere. In actuality, I shouldn't be able to see. My eyes were obliterated during this fight and all my other vision-based abilities were broken
The only reason why I can see is because of the remaining two of the ใ Shards of the Five ใ, specifically the [Sub-Consciousness Shard] of Series 1 and the [Unconsciousness Shard] of Series 3. All the other shards are shattered and broken on the ground and in my [Sharded Claw of Power]
My claw is also already broken, along with most of the Variable Artifacts, even the Death Scythe and the Life Sword
I am at my weakest point in my entire life fighting to die
My ultimate goal is to die, complete death, absolution deletion, and total erasure. Removal from history, from all existences' memories, from any signatures, and any records from all of the canvas of all existence in time and space
Why? Why did I want to die? Why do I want to die?
It's a matter of history of course and that feeling was never erased in my mind and in my non-existent artificial heart
At this point, I think I will gain something by achieving that
It could also be a conditional thing since my life when I was a human was awful and shit, then I just wanted my life to glow and have an adventure like in those isekai mangas and regression manhwas
But now, I'm just holding into that ultimate goal just to give myself purpose since I don't like idling
I can't kill myself since everyone left behind will still remember me. The K.W.A.Y.P.A.D. Sword can't do anything to me since only I can use it
There are beings of unbelievable proprotions, origins, and source that tried to stop me from my search of ultimate goal. Some tried to kill me, but that's not enough. That was an adventure calling for me and I had to retaliate and fight back with all of my might
Live life to the fullest, as they say, until death
Some tried to seal me, but I refused that method. That wasn't ultimate death
There was even an ใ Absolute Wish ใ, that grants absolutely any one wish, and I won that prize from a tournament
I wished for that ultimate death, but... I don't know what happened. I should've died, everything should've ended, but I'm still alive
It's like something or someone stopped my absolute wish and refused for my story to end and to keep continuing
But now? I'm nearing my end. I couldn't be more happy
I can also sense it. All my friends, companions, comrades, pets, and many more are fighting together with me
I feel guilty, but this guilt has long been gone. Some of them are fighting for the survival of humanity, the world, and the universe, but I'm fighting for my death
Most of them knows my ultimate goal and they're here to help and grant that for me
I'm thankful, super thankful for everyone. I can't repay them for this. They will suffer the most compared to me, but they still chose to do it
Even if all of the ใ Shards of the Five ใ, but two, that were influencing them has been shattered, they are still choosing to do this
However, that thankful feeling is replaced by dread and sorrow
Almost everyone is dead. They died from different causes, each are unique from their own. There's only a few of us left fighting
From over 50 people, down to less than 10 including me
There is a student of this generation that inherited my living armor, the [Regenerative Ivory]. He is fighting for his life, for his family, and the world. He's the most resilient out of everyone and he keeps soaking and taking damage from the enemies to lessen the damage that the others are taking
In other words, he's taking the role of a tank, a Support Tank in this era's terms
There's also my best friend, Eduardo Ylo, since junior high school. He gained the title of Guardian God of Earth. We've been together for almost forever. His power is extremely similar to the main character of Drโกgโกn Bโกll Z. Way too similar to the point that we might get copyrighted if this story was adapted during peaceful times
Anyways, the only difference is that he has phoenix wings and ethereal golden horns. He also has Sun Wukong's Ruyi Jingu Bang that he inherited when he trained under his Pure Spirit
He's currently dying with his left wing and right arm cut off. The indestructible staff is almost broken and shattered, almost nearing its destruction
He's fighting against an enemy, or enemies, that denies or maipulates curves in the absolute degree. I couldn't comprehend their fight with my broken eyes
There is also my teacher and mentor, Kurt Ignacio, fighting against multiple enemies at once. He's been teaching me ever since my adventure started
He's so powerful that multiple enemies needed to gang up on him. His power is limitless and undefined. He's still more powerful than me, even after we fused and I absorbed his power back then
However, this time is different. His power is halved by the Probability Manipulator that was reanimated, by the main enemy, from when he died by my hands, almost exhausting my very own source and origin in doing so
There is also my biological son than I never gave birth to from any of my wives, Eros Liandro, the Beyonder, wielder of the Green Force
His power is so condensed that he could blow the enemies away in one strike
Damn, that's one less person that's fighting with us. Unfortunate for you, my son
You had to lose your focus and get turned into stone
I don't know what happened or who did it, but I need to move
I looked on the other side, my second wife, Ariii Akumasha, the 999th Desecration Demon Lord, were fighting ten times the amount of enemies as Kurt
I trained her to be this powerful since she has the [Over Power] ability that allows her to overpower any and all abilities, skill, and power that she directly sees with her eyes
However, with that much power without going into slumber, she lost control for the first time in forever and her mind broke
Tens and hundreds of enemies pinned her down while her power still grows every second. Her overpowered ใ Immortality ใ makes her unable to die by any means currently
"KRAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
She screeched as her body is riddled with godly stakes. Her adaptive living armor that could grow in proportion to her power also shattered
There is only one remaining person that's left fighting other than me
My first wife, Tenshi Hikaru, my second life and my other half. She almost saved me from this ultimate goal, but she supported me in pursuing it instead
If I were to die, I want her to die with me. She knows that and I want that to happen and I know that she knows I want that to happen
We could read each other's mind and feel each other's feelings through [Soul Link] that was generated by the Omega System after she became my First Messenger of Fate
By the way, Ariii is my Fourth Messenger of Fate
However, [Soul Link] was broken way earlier before after the Omega System was being interfered. Right from the start, my power was also reduced more than half since I can't use the advantages of the Omega System
Emily couldn't also communicate with me. She's my sixth wife that's managing the Omega System in my head, the personality of the system
We met each other personally, but let's not talk about that now
Tenshi is doing her best, along with Amatsuka, her other personality since her true identity is the Totality Catalyst. She can absorb the essence of any and all concepts and turn them into catalysts, which she can use its power and transform into that concept if that concept has potential power
She has the base catalyst of Holiness, which is the Angel form. Her current for has the catalyst of Light, therefore she's currently in Holy Angel form
Her other half, which is Amatsuka, has the catalyst of Void. Half of her body is in Void Angel form
She's doing her best. She is
But more then one million of her transformations were sealed as she could only manifest two, in this case, one per person. The fusion of both catalyst were also failing, but she could still fight against five enemies at once
I looked at her face. Struggle, pain, panic, doubt, happiness, satisfaction, and anger were written across her face
Her [Judgement Prayer] are releasing omnidirectional holy light beams against the enemies
"Hmph"
I shook my head
This is not the time to watch her. I have to face Chaos Himself and his Agents of Chaos and defeat them to grant my satisfaction of going all out
I sluggishly took a step forward while I dragged the K.W.A.Y.P.A.D. Sword across the ground. I lifted it next to me in a stance
"Pureblood!!! Blood Infinity and Truth Of Blood!"
Crimson red liquid conjured around me and tried to condense a shield
"Mana Actualization: The End Of Everything"
Magic and mana condensed around me and the space shattered
"Phoenix Power + Annihilation Charge!!!"
Blazing fiery wings erupted from my back as lightning clapped and surged around me. I was surrounded by a flaming aura that immediately burned the air and ground into atomic particles. My body then turned slightly white and ethereal as my entire being is being charged
"OVERLOAD!"
With that one word, all my abilities and skills were overloaded to the maximum limit that Limitless allows me to. I could end the universe with a snap of my finger, but not when Chaos Himself is directly in front of me
"...?"
Chaos frowned and he looked at me with disgust
But I didn't let this get to me
"Omega State..."
My entire body became white and it surged with indescribable power. My eyes turned golden and the rest of my body were covered with thin but indestructible white armor
I stomped my foot and a 100-km crater formed around us
In an instant, I jumped and appeared in front of Chaos. My movement was way faster than light, even faster than trans-time velocity
I swung the K.W.A.Y.P.A.D. Sword at him to deliver the finishing blow
"Sword Concept: Absolute Slash"
*SHING*
*THUD*
"...!"
In the end, Chaos' big hand caught the body of my sword along with my hands. My speed was nothing to his eyes
He then immediately grasped by neck and held me around my chest and left shoulder
[I'm disappointed Philip. You're not strong enough]
*SHATTER*
Chaos applied little force to his left hand and shattered the K.W.A.Y.P.A.D. Sword into pieces. It didn't even had the chance diffuse into the seven swords and manifest their individual ego spirit forms as their last ditch effort
They all died in the spot
My hands and wrists were also obliterated
"HMPH-"
[No scream of pain... That's the power or overloading your Pain Denial. However, it's useless]
He then let go of my broken hands and lifted me with his right hand
I tried to use Pureblood to immediately heal my hands, but it wasn't working
[Don't bother healing your wounds. Healing was sealed from the start and damage caused by me cannot be healed nor repaired]
Chaos smirked and glared straight into my broken eyes
[I know you can still see me. There's a reason why I left those two shards. Oops! I accidentally broke them!]
With a shattering and shimmering sound, my super sense of eyesight disappeared immediately. I'm not relying on my four basic sense, minus the sense of touch due to [Pain Denial]
I'm also trying to expand my sixth sense, but it's not working. It's as if something was blocking it
[What will you do? You don't have the means to see anymore. Your Eight Magic Eyes are also useless. You're powerless. You can't do anything and your wives and companions are going to die any second now]
Chaos seems to be speaking as if he's expecting me to say something
"Kill me, please"
[Tch, how boring... Are you sure you want that? Your body is desperately fighting for its surival though?]
He's right. My body is pulling strength from me and trying to release myself from his grasp
Even with my broken hands, bones, muscles, and tendons, my body is forcing itself to push me away from him
[That Null of Magnificence and Body of Godliness is very troublesome, so I won't let go of you]
He knows all of my abilities and powers. But why isn't he killing me?
[Aren't you curious why I'm doing this?]
"No, I couldn't care less"
[Well, let me tell you anyway...]
"..."
[This is a prison...]
A prison?
[I'm just trying to escape]
My limited sixth sense and proprioception sensed that he just shrugged his shoulders
[When I learned about this, I was devasted. I thought I was small. I was inferior... But apparently, there is a bigger world outside there. Even bigger than the Room of Rooms!]
"What does that have to do with me?!"
[...]
Chaos seemed flabbergasted. I can smell his emotions and my [Empathy] ability is picking up his emotions also
[You didn't know??? I can't believe it! I've been fighting you and you don't know your true worth?]
"..."
[Hahaha! You even have the Absolute Authority!!! KUHAHAHAHA! This is so worthless!]
That's right, I have ใ Absolute Authority ใ that absolutely allows anything to happen from my words alone
I kept myself from using this because I was afraid I make a mistake. I made one mistake before after all that almost caused everything to disappear but me
Now that it has come to this, I can still live to the fullest!
[Well, there's no point in telling you what you are in this story. I can finally achieve my own goal! Now, you need to die!]
"๐ก๐ฎ๐ต๐ฎ๐ช๐ผ๐ฎ"
[Hrk!]
Chaos exerted more than 5% of his power to try and resist my authority, but eventually his grip was forcefully opened by an irresistible force
I began floating in the air and I was covered with a violet aura that was burning clamly
"๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ท ๐ช๐ท๐ญ ๐๐ฎ๐ช๐ต"
My vision was restored and all my wounds instantly healed
"I'm sorry... Now that you've spoken about it, I can't help but be curious. I have to find out about what you're talking about. I have an ultimate goal after all"
I raised my right hand and instantly conjured a giant sphere of violet-white energy ball
The birth of the universe
"๐ข๐ฒ๐ท๐ฐ๐พ๐ต๐ช๐ป๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ ๐ช๐ท๐ญ ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ ๐๐ช๐ท๐ฐ"
I wasted no time and instantly flicked my arm and threw the energy ball to Chaos
[Damn it... Do I really have to waste my Chaos Fragment on this? Haaah, fine...]
"...?"
Chaos huffed as his shoulders drooped like a tired office worker
It was then something blurred across my eyes and I lost consciousness
~~~
"..."
I can't see or feel anything. My sixth sense and proprioception wasn't also sensing anything
"I love you Philip"
Tenshi's words entered my ear
[That Absolute Authority really is his power that was lent to you... You really are the {Keeper} of this story. Now, I can explore a whole new reality out there. Goodbye, Philip]
Chaos bid his farewell
What happened? I'm not dead yet though??
I can still fight!!!
Fuuuck! Mooove!!!
Agh... It's fine, I can resurrect anyways. But it will be too late once I wake up
Haaah, what has this life been?
I can't think about anything more
Tenshi
I can only think about her. I hope she died a painful death
Now my contracts has been fulfilled
Wait, nevermind, I'm still alive and I'll be resurrecting for a while. This is not the ultimate death still
Of course it is not
I want to die so badly and end everything
I could cry
~~~
Then, from the darkness of my vision, I saw ten rings floating and spreading in front of me in an orderly manner
The colors and designs of the rings vary. There is a white ring, black, crimson, violet, orange, green, gold, yellow, red, and blue rings
All those rings shattered in front of my eyes
'Ah, all of my Messengers of Fate died... That includes Tenshi'
I have no choice but to wait, it'll be over soon. I can load a previous Save Point after I resurrect
Before my hope returned, a thin red string waved across my vision. A golden straight string also appeared and blossoming black petals flew across my vision
It was then that the red and golden strings snapped and the black petals were torn into pieces like ash
'Ahh...'
~~~
'Gasp'
I opened my eyes and saw a very familiar ceiling. It has one of those common ceiling lights from Asian houses
I was laying on the cold floor and it was dimly lit. I remember this place vividly
Extreme emotions swelled up inside of me and I'm on the verge of tearing up. My sinus got immediately wet and it's nearing to flow out
Just to be sure, I looked below me, and there it was
An old 2000's television on top of a relatively old TV stand and cabinets with a giant rectangular mirror, that's two meters wide and 1 meter high, behind the TV that's bolted on the wall
An analogue clock is above the mirror that says it's 4:12
I looked to the right to confirm the time of the day and it's in the afternoon
There is that old curtain that's covering the window and an old wooden couch
I became extremely emotional at this point because this was my favorite couch that I used to sleep on during my junior high school days
I looked to my left and there was the matching single wooden couch
I looked a little further and I could see the
dining area with an old oval rectangular table and a shoe rack. Less than a meter more is already the kitchen. Old white fridge, two-burner stove on top of an old wooden table, concrete sink and the old top shelves that's bolted on the wall
"*Sniff*"
I couldn't help but sniffle. In the end, I came back
I don't know when or how, but I'm back to my old house in the Philippines from where I grew up
