Chapter 208 - The Dumbfounded Supreme Deity
-----
Within a completely bright and sunlight-covered palace, a beautiful woman with an enormous body rested over a bed made of cushions. Her pale-white skin, her beautiful and bright yellow-gold eyes, and her long and blonde hair made her resemble the finest and most beautiful being in this Universe.
She was relaxing while eating fruits. Her daily life was often filled with leisure acts such as these, without a care in the world about anything else than this. There were several other Gods around her, serving her food, talking to her, or giving her the news of everyday in the Solar System and the rest of the Galaxy.
"How are things regarding the troops I sent to kill the abomination? By now they should be done, right?" she wondered.
The Gods serving her, who didn't wanted to say a thing about this, remained silent. They really didn't wanted to tell her the actual truth which had arrived just a few hours ago, and this truth was a mere assumption, as the life signs of every single being sent to this planet was suddenly gone, right out of existence.
"W-Well…"
"Erm… Hehe…"
"Funny, we were just wondering the same thing!"
"Is that so? Then go look for an answer now." Said the entity of brightness, feeling rather annoyed. Her wrath quickly made the gods move desperately, as one of her loyal assistants quickly brought a report.
"There hasn't been any news from them every since they departed several weeks ago, aside from the report stating that they were a few kilometers away from the planet…"
"Is that so? Nothing at all?" asked their boss.
"Well… The truth is, we have assumed the worst. All their life signals are completely gone, days ago, they slowly began to fade away, until now, where they're gone completely… not a single soul is left."
"…"
"…"
The Supreme Entity of Brightness looked at her assistant dumbfounded.
"Are you taking me for a fool? What kind of news are these?" she asked.
"My lady, they're the truth…"
"No way. That's impossible! How can… that's…"
"We assume the worst. The abomination has already reached the realm of Gods, and is capable of defeating all the troops we sent against him… if that's the case, his abnormal growth could threaten the entire Solar System if we don't do something of a larger scale to stop him in time!" said the assistant.
"T-This…! How can it be?! How can a pitiful creature born just half a year ago… become this strong?! It was made of mere stitched corpses! How can it be this strong?! This… doesn't make any freaking sense!"
"It is the truth my lady, please believe us…"
"A being that can become a God in half a year… what kind of monstrosity is that? What powers is it even capable of exerting? If this keeps going on, and the Solar Year ends, this being might even reach the next Realm! You're right, a large scale persecution is the only way out of this… This is all my fault! Damn it! I-I shouldn't had taken it so easy! Those greater existences above Galaxies themselves will kill me if they know I've failed so miserably!" she said, raging in her divine palace.
"My lady there's still hope, please calm yourself! There can be another way out of this. We simply must gather the sufficient forces, Gods, Demigods, and Living Deities, as many as our Pantheon possess and leave a bounty for this being in every single planet."
"…You're right, but how can they identify it? We don't know how it actually looks…"
"The Lich's memories contain part of how this being originally looked while it was being created, a pale-whited, silver-haired youth." Said the assistant.
"Hmm… Extract as much info from that Lich as you possibly can, that's very valuable info that we can utilize to track down the abomination! Do everything you can to bring me its head! Did you heard me?"
"Y-Yes my lady!"
The Supreme Entity of Brightness rested over her throne, sighing in anger and frustration. She was growing impatient, this wouldn't be so much if it wasn't because this abomination was made out of the corpses from the graveyard of these two massive families that governed entire Galaxies, the Vampire and Dragon Clans! These powerful existences that appear in mostly every Galaxy and even other universes themselves cannot be easily fooled.
If she keeps acting like a failure, they'll notice and punish her with death, probably! If not, infinite imprisonment in the torments of the eternal abyss void, or even worse, being thrown outside the Universal Membrane into the endlessly vast Sea of Nothingness where many other Universes dwelled, where her soul and body would end disintegrated.
"Damn it all! What else can I do? S-Should I act myself? But me? Moving out of my own divine realm to bother with such a bug?! I… I couldn't possibly do such a dishonorable act, I would rather die… But, would I rather… die for my pride?" she wondered, as she felt greatly conflicted with her own thoughts and process of thoughts.
She sighed as she looked at a yellow-gold crystal, which showed the images of Chaos from within Ainz's memories, she looked at him with utter hate and scorn, completely hating on the young chimera because of his sole existence alone. A being such as him simply didn't belonged to this place and shouldn't even exist in her opinion. Seeing it exist and thrive only made the insult to her and the other Clans even more prominent.
Meanwhile, as the Supreme raged, Chaos was sitting over his throne reading a book. This book was one of interesting things, named Necromancy 101. This special book contained the universal secrets of Necromancy through the usage of Death Magic, but there might be other ways to get this power which wasn't without unlocking this power.
He had yet to eat a being with strong enough Death Magic Element on it, but for now, he was satisfied with the book on his hands and the power he might get soon, as there were few accessories near him. Chaos looked at these metallic pieces as if they were succulent snacks.
