Will of chaos

I was a little lost, but I still began to see the changes on the battlefield. It was clear that things were changing, but even so, I felt a chill down my spine. I was distracted by having just appeared, yet I was surrounded not by Ascendants but by creatures I didn't understand.

"(What are these things...?)" (me)

"< Breath of Dusk >" (Nix)

"< Divine Leaves of Massacre >" (Sakura)

Suddenly, all these creatures were swept away by a wave of water that seemed to contain a starry sky. A stream of energy also came carrying millions of red leaves at high speed, eating around me without ever touching my body. With that, two of my Divine Beasts appeared.

"Be careful of them, master!" (Sakura)

"These creatures look like energy vampires. They can even suck out Divinities." (Sakura)

"Where did these things come from!?" (me)

"They came from a second wave of summons, now retreat to the others!" (Nix)

I retreat with them as we gather near my Heralds and other Divine Beasts, everyone was injured to some degree, I approach them concentrating power in my hands.

"< Divine Magic of the Eclipse: Ring of Healing and Purification >" (me)

From me, a ring of energy flows in several directions, my intention was to heal everyone around me, but what happened next was something that surprised me, the unknown enemies in the surroundings turn into gray mist as they gather in one place, a golden sphere emerges from within the space keeping its humanoid body cohesive, this waiting was covered in Ascending Runes and kept changing between 3 forms being a cube, a triangle and a sphere on its chest.

"< Divine Eclipse Magic: Scorching Sun >" (me)

A circular barrier forms around us as that Creature advances towards us, but before it can reach us the sphere around us burns in purple flames as it explodes in all directions sending its flames in a brutal manner, even so the attack surprisingly pierces through the flames and reaches me.

"< Claws of the Eclipse God >" (me)

"< Divine Summon: Dark Scarab Hero >" (Kiara)

"< Ascension of the Sword of Armageddon >" (Ragnar)

In our group, only me, Kiara and Ragnar were able to respond instantly because of our strong instincts, sensing the danger moments before the attack, I managed to concentrate Chaos energy in my claws to the point of crystallizing, then I cut towards it.

Kiara summoned a 4-meter-tall humanoid Scarab, its wings separate from it and join together in front like a shield, forming an energy barrier in front.

Ragnar's blade-shaped horn was already shining when a large sword emerged from its shadow, moving forward while the giant sword rose, forming a shield.

Even with all this, the creature's gray energy fist transformed from a dagger into a spear that pierced the barrier as if it were butter, and Kiara's Summon dissolved as if consumed by gray energy particles. Then this spear collided with the large sword created by Ragnar, stopping for a moment before also breaking the sword, which seemed corroded.

Even so, it managed to get enough time for my attack to go, not to stop this attack, but to reach the creature's furthest core. I know that that is its only weak point, and realizing the danger of my attack, it dodged, stopping its own attack against us.

"..." (me)

"..." (everyone)

When I felt him preparing to advance once more, suddenly a wave of formless and harmless energy spreads all over the place, the creature immediately retreats and it wasn't the only one.

I was paying attention to my surroundings and noticed that, apart from the creatures commanded by Famine still fighting Cortana, all the other enemies were retreating, be they the Ascendants or the Anomalous Creatures, with the only exception being one of the massive Golems that had a strong Vital Aura around it and from where I felt Lena's presence coming.

"RETIRE!!!" (Selene)

Selene's voice spreads everywhere with a warning as she herself moves away from her fight against Baldr, the two were only partially injured, nothing too serious, but the space where they were was destroyed to the point of forming a space storm in the surroundings the size of a planet.

"(Space is very reinforced this time, the damage recovers very quickly and is contained to levels I've never seen here before, this is strange...)" (me)

As my mind wandered with the strangeness of space being so resistant, my previous ring-shaped healing envelops everyone in stellar flames that burn their wounds, my healing is differentiated, it transforms the wounds, the infected energy in the wounds and the surrounding flesh itself all together remaking the damaged areas into new ones, it is not healing per se, but its effect fulfills its function quickly in exchange for the great pain that fortunately they can all endure.

"(My wound does not improve...)" (me)

As they were all creating themselves, the diagonal cut in front of my body seems to be unaffected by the stellar flames around it, even my natural healing has no effect, Ayden's attacks seem like they can negate the recovery even after that conceptual battlefield falls apart.

"Then one of them appeared..." (me)

My eyes move to the point where the Ascendants' forces moved, in that place before there was nothing, but at some point a throne excessively full of cheap ostentation appeared, behind it a large statue of a level 4 Ascendant wearing a robe and holding a book, his face covered by a hood.

Sitting on the throne at the feet of the statue was a man who had 4 wings on his back, the power of the Law was not only around his Aura, the power of the Law was his Aura distorting his surroundings almost to the point of hiding his appearance.

He was a handsome looking man around middle age, his build was not muscular, but his expression was stoic, his eyes and hair were light brown, his slightly dark skin was Immaculate while his black clothes looked like something between a suit and a robe giving an air of elegance that disgusted me.

"(So much arrogance and arrogance as expected from an Ascendant.)" (me)

But what caught my attention was that he seemed to be weak, he was trying to look strong, but he couldn't fake it perfectly, the glow in his eyes was a little out of focus, one of his legs also trembled for a brief moment and his breathing was too forced to maintain a controlled rhythm instead of the natural one, he was putting on a facade and I doubt I was the only one who noticed.

Just as I expected, the murderous intent was leaking from everyone, especially from the Gods of this universe, some of them even began to gather their power to attack.

Those who were already taking position to advance in a coordinated manner were Selene, Aline, Akatosh and Cratos who exchanged a look with each other as if to confirm something, but before they could attack, a slight smile formed on the face of that Ascendant before his voice resounded in the distance probably reaching other star systems nearby.

"I am Mavor, one of the 3 Ascendant leaders, the book of creation..." (Mavor)

"Hahahahahahaha.... hahahahaha... hahahaha..." (me)

"..." (Mavor)

"Hahahaha... hahahaha... hahaha...." (me)

"..." (Everyone)

I couldn't help but start laughing hysterically, Mavor stopped smiling as he looked in my direction, his Aura becoming sharp, but none of that mattered to me as I continued laughing even as my allies looked at me strangely.

"Hahahahaha... hahahaha..." (me)

"Raise your shields!!!" (Selene)

"..." (Mavor)

I couldn't help it, he appears in the middle of a battlefield where a genocide of billions was carried out sitting on a golden throne with a disgraceful statue holding a book and calling himself the book of creation.

His arrogance was so great that he even began to smile when introducing himself as one of the stupid villains from the comic books I read in my childhood in my previous life.

"!!!" (me)

I couldn't help but feel my blood boil with hatred and anger, I couldn't help but feel an insane level of murderous intent take over me almost to the point of clouding my mind while I still feel the dense death energy in the surroundings due to the large number of lives lost.

The scene of so many people being sacrificed right in front of me, their deaths being bargaining chips to call the forces of two entities like Famine and War, all this just for this damn Ascendant to arrive here as if he were in a Carnival parade full of Authority with all eyes on him as if it were the most normal thing for him to be the center of attention.

"Zenos, please calm down..." (Alice)

"I'm calm!!" (me)

"If I wasn't calm!! Believe me! I wouldn't be so rational!!!" (me)

My burning eyes look at the wretch sitting on the throne, I spread my wings as my power circulates with double the intensity between my Soul and body, it was as if my energy flow was alive and rages along with me while my Aura explodes in pure violence.

"< Incarnation of the 7 Paths of the Profane >" (me)

"I came to negotiate, if you attack me half the population of this universe will perish today!!" (Mavor)

"..." (me)

"..." (everyone)

With that single sentence, I stopped my technique just as it was about to activate, I stood motionless looking at what he waved floating above his right hand, it was a bizarre crystal skull, but as soon as it appeared it emanated an Aura that had both what it really was as well as what it contained within.

At that moment it wasn't just my killing intent that doubled in intensity, all the Gods immediately understood what Mavor was doing and what was in that skull, the presence of such a large and absurd number of Souls could not be contained from spreading leaving everyone enraged.
