Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

<...Stormdust stared at the golden Writ of Challenge rising up before him with an impassive expression, not taking any action as he raised his hands to conjure up a crimson-gold essence that was releasing the awe-inducing aura of an Edict.

Since its birth, he never made any decision without the consultation of this Edict! It bloomed from his hands as it spread out to cover him entirely, his eyes becoming glazed crimson gold as he looked above him to see countless glimmering strings.

Strings that represented existences and possibilities- strings that allowed him to gain light in a field of darkness as it showed him possibilities of what may come. Any existence could be his target as those who were at the same stage as him or even stronger...he could garner no information about.

"..." Such was the scene that played out at this moment as when he tried to focus on the one known as Daolord Osmont, no string descended down to tell him anything.

His red hair flowed silently at such a development as it was one of the things he did not wish for. Since the appearance of Osmont, he had moved to take precautions as he found he could barely discern the destiny of this being, but at this moment...that barely had turned to nothing!

He couldn't discern anything as it meant this creature had obtained its own Edict, and such was a variable that Stormdust did not need right now.

He had to move hiddenly under the gaze of someone as terrifying as Aegon, such a thing only being possible due to Havenbreaker herself working with him. He couldn't have a variable with an Edict who freely challenged Family Heads rise up now.

Assassination didn't work as it relied on him to send others. A Writ of Challenge of 10 Cosmos didn't work as once more...it relied on him to send others!

But with this newly enacted Writ of Challenge...he could move himself to remove this rising thorn that threatened to destabilize the work he had been doing for hundreds of thousands of years!

So even though his Nomological Edict of Burning Destiny couldn't discern anything about this Osmont- his consultation with it still made his mind in the next second as before the Writ of Challenge could be redacted…

THRUM!

His essence signature washed over it as he accepted the challenge.

12 Cosmos that Osmont owned put up against 989 Cosmos he freely influenced over the past three million years! It wasn't a logical decision in any way, but it had to be done if Stormdust wished to remove this obstacle!

"I do not plan on losing anyways. No matter what it takes." 

WAA!

His gruff voice rang out in the silent throne room of the enormous castle surrounded by trillions of suns. 

"I will usher in something beautiful...something that even Aegon has not been able to achieve! No mere entrant will stand in the way of that."

His eyes flashed sharply as he played with the crimson-gold essence of the Edict of Burning Destiny. An Edict that could both discern Destiny and use it to attack...it was something very few could defend against!

He had already seen Osmont's last battle as he utilized an essence that erased Daolords, and Stormdust knew this must be the Edict that this being comprehended as with a mere offensive Edict, he could not block against attacks that struck one's unseen destiny…>

"Oh...but I can." 

…!

Noah read the ongoing viewpoint of Stormdust with a smile as he saw the challenge before his eyes being accepted, the date set for 1 week later as the moment of its acceptance...the edges of the Cosmic Battlefield erupted out in a clamor of shock!

But Noah didn't spare a glance at this as he continued to read the view point of Stormdust- the being who thought that he had a single Edict and would in no way be capable of defending against attacks of Destiny.

Little did this being know that when it came to Destiny...Noah was one of the very few that could be considered top tier within this Reality.

Just his abnormally large reserves of Golden Destiny and Fortune alone surpassed many, and that was before he began to utilize <Destiny Negation> to obtain even more wondrous Reserves!

The tides of destiny churned as Reality began to weave towards a certain direction.

Those swept up in the weaving of Destiny were many, Springforge and Halcyon looking at their illusory screens blankly as they had no words after they saw the acceptance of the Writ of Challenge.

On the edges of the Cosmic Battlefield, it was buzzing with clamor and shouts of shock and disbelief as the auras of many beings caused the surroundings to tremble wildly!

Amongst this wildness and stupor, the figure of Noah could be seen at the forefront of the seats within his own faction, the clones of his people situated calmly behind him as well- their Origins shaking excitedly as they would finally have a chance to contribute in the coming battle.

Their eyes and the eyes of countless Antiquities, Daolords, and Forefathers were all on Noah as he remained utterly unbothered after he challenged the head of an entire faction- his gaze on something none of them could even fathom!

At this time, a single being came back to her wits as she came to and sent a message towards Noah.

"I.." The voice of Halcyon hesitating began to ring out in his mind. "...the Family Head of Springforge would like a meeting with you." 

As he delved into the vast Primordial Empire that was filled with over 3,000 Cosmos, Noah just issued a battle to the head of one of three factions as another head sought to meet with him!

His Primordial Ruination Clone smiled as the book within his hands was closed, his figure rising from the seat as he glanced at the rising clamor of beings around the edges of the Cosmic Battlefield...and disappeared.

It was time for him to officially meet one of the players who would be weaved by Destiny into a grand future. It was also time for him to complete yet another Edict as his bodies brought together mixtures of daos and Laws into something beautiful!

It was also the time for him to utilize [Protagonist's Bookmark] to mark an existence as today, he wouldn't just be obtaining a single Edict- but two!
