Chapter 352 - A Grandmaster Has an Epiphany
THRUM!
The bodies of the two Celestials thrummed with power as the golden light gradually died down, Noah adding another five thousand Fate Lines onto his body and bringing up his total to slightly above 18,000, while Athena added around two thousand fate lines to her already abundant amount that Noah could not completely discern.
The air gradually settled as the commotion brought because of the descent of thousands of fate died down, the wizened expression of a Grandmaster stroking his beard making itself apparent in the eyes of the two disciples.
"The more you influence fate, the more you will naturally increase in the power and understanding of the law of fate."
The Grandmaster beamed out loud as he looked at them like some prized possessions.
Athena stared at the added lines of fate in her body as she nodded naturally, this instance not being something completely foreign to her. Her eyes languidly gazed upon her Junior Brother though, who had somehow managed to have more than twice the Fate Lines descend onto his body even though they participated in the same event.
Noah looked at the abundant Fate Lines running through his body as he gained knowledge of the way to rapidly increase them- which was to simply continue influencing the fates of many beings! This would cause for the abrupt increase in the number of Fate Lines he held, and most likely the increase on how many he could then condense each day as time passed.
The Grandmaster's gaze focused on Noah as he nodded towards him happily and spoke once more.
"Your plan succeeded very well, with the amount of chaos reduced even slightly exceeding the result of simply destroying the entirety of the Magus World. You are a genius unlike anything I have ever seen!"
Noah only smiled as he placed his hand on his chest and asked respectfully.
"Thank you for giving me the chance, Grandmaster. I am curious though- since we have completely destroyed the power structure of this world and taken its most powerful leaders out, how will it move from here when looking at the effects of our actions?"
The Grandmaster waved his hands dismissively at this question, replying while rubbing his exemplary white beard.
"You don't need to worry yourself about that. The World of Cultivation that was hurt the most by the Magus World will soon be informed to descend down and take the reigns, as well as numerous missions being created that will be given to our disciples to descend to the Magus World and influence the fates of the beings there for training."
"Not everyone jumps through ranks like you, going on to directly influence the fates of numerous Worlds. Other disciples have to start on a much smaller scale, and influencing the fates of beings in a special position like those in this Magus World fits our criteria. But...that is not what I want to discuss the most right now!"
Grandmaster Vredral's face became bright as he began walking towards them, his presence began to erupt with golden vigor.
"You have reminded me of something that I should have never forgotten during this venture. It is the reminder that even worse than me, the beings in this Light Expanse are naturally forgetful."
He walked towards them as with every increasing step, his face seemed to glow more and more as if he had an epiphany!
"After the end of the war 1000 years ago, many have forgotten our power, only hearing about it occasionally when we move to punish those that need to be punished and during the Infernal Hunts. This momentous event you just called forth, Young Crixus, is a reminder that the beings in this Light Expanse need to be shown exactly why Celestials have the power that they have."
"Just like they observed your genius battle prowess, they need to be shown the brilliance of the Celestials yet again in order to reduce this ever-increasing chaos! Not just this small quadrant that we showed off your battle to, but all the quadrants of the Light Expanse!"
The voice of the Grandmaster was trembling with aged excitement near the end as Noah's heart tightened, not knowing exactly what would come forth from this unexpected development!
---
In the Magus World that Noah and Athena had just left, the illusory screen faded as the fearfully hiding inhabitants of the world came out en masse, the powerful Magi that were not in the Order of the Black Serpent feeling the spatial restrictions lifting off as a large Prime Warship began moving away from their worlds.
Their hearts were full of grief and pain as they replayed the events which had just occurred, especially the demonic figure of a brilliantly shining winged Celestial that rained down horrendous blades from the skies and struck down many of the powerful beings they knew.
When they looked at the figures of Noah and Athena, they only held memories of fear and hate as they recalled their fearsome power that had caused the downfall of the ruling force of their world, but they also felt a sliver of thankfulness!
This was a very interesting sight to come across, as the inhabitants of the Magus World heard the words of the Celestial Grandmaster before the bloodbath began. His voice had resounded across the world as it told them that the verdict for their world had been destruction! The only reason this verdict had changed was because of the thoughts of a single disciple- the same being that had come down to carry out the massacre.
So they were thankful to this disciple, and at the same time they were increasingly fearful of him and the force he represented!
In this Magus World that was soon about to be divided up by the forces that the Celestials would send down to stabilize and rule the world, a new era of fearful submission would begin for its inhabitants as only a single motivation would come to rule this world...and it was fear!
