Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil

Chapter 1596 Divinity: Deification



Chapter 1596 Divinity: Deification

Zavir could tell that more than half of the Rankers who were part of the Anfang Alliance would be affected by Eren's bloodline energy.

So there was just no way the Alliance could work as flawlessly as before. As far as this situation was considered, the Alliance was no more. At least it had ceased to exist for him. So he decided not to follow its orders anymore.

As a result of Eren's actions, thousands of Rankers were either getting killed or transformed into half-bloods per second all over Anfang. And when a certain number of Rankers were converted into half-bloods, the unthinkable took place and the divine formation cracked.

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

The world's mana surged all over at multiple places, causing mana storms. The waves of earthquakes were strong enough to create gaping fissures, changing the appearance of the terrain in the blink of an eye. The spatial fabric thinned and created a lot of anomalies.

All of these natural disasters were caused by a backlash because Eren's actions interfered with the divine formation.

The earthquakes and the mana storms caused by the breaking of the divine formation were so strong that even Eren's allies started fearing for their lives. This was a cataclysmic event that Eren had triggered on his own for reasons that only mattered to him.

There was no great cause behind Eren's actions. He did not think of saving the half-bloods from their oppression. He did not think of freeing the Children of Echidna from their poor condition in Anfang. There was no grand vision behind his deeds. This was because that was not the kind of a man Eren was. 

"Retreat!" Sage Zavir reached out to other Sages before announcing his decision.

"We, as Sages, are the last line of defense for this world. We can not afford to watch this world descend into total destruction. We must use her powers to mitigate the situation.

Go to your families. Go to your cities. Try to protect the regions you can. This calamity… it's going to get worse. Much worse. So brace yourselves," Zavir said before taking out a flying vehicle from his storage. He soon disappeared from the region, heading to where his extended family was at a rapid rate.

Crack. Crack. Crack.

The vast land of Anfang began to fracture, spewing lava and forming deep crevices that snaked across the expanse. These ruptures intertwined, dividing the regions and altering the landscape.

The repercussions of the divine formation's disintegration were immense, set to permanently change not only the climate and geography but also numerous other aspects of the world. Billions of lives would be affected by this cataclysmic transformation.

Anfang was traditionally known as the Continent of Anfang, a title bestowed by otherworldly visitors before the Calamity Era. This colossal landmass had remained undivided since the civilizations had established themselves upon it. With no significant landmass nearby, the term "Continent of Anfang" was fitting.

For most inhabitants of Anfang, the sea remained an unseen wonder. Inaccessible and perilous regions hindered any visits to the seaside. Many denizens, even among the low-ranking entities, had never laid eyes on the sea and felt no regret for the absence of that experience.

Yet, those present near the sea at this moment would witness towering tidal waves, watching as the sea transformed into a ravenous behemoth, wreaking havoc and destruction.

Eren's actions marked a profound shift in the world's destiny. The immense continent of Anfang was poised to split into seven smaller landmasses that would gradually drift apart, eventually settling into an arrangement bearing no semblance to its former state.

"I told you I'm not running away, didn't I?"

Eren mumbled to himself as he watched the witnesses of the whole event outside the Birdcage Barrier run for their lives. He didn't even need Eliza's protection or the operability of the space-element runes anymore to get away from the Sages of Anfang Alliance. This was because those Sages were one of the first ones to leave.

"Hmm. This should be enough."

Eren thought to himself and ceased feeding the Array Formation with his blood. The divine formation had deteriorated beyond repair and was destined to crumble on its own one day.

[ My child... true inheritor of Elder Ichor! ]

An ancient-sounding thought echoed in Eren's mind. Before he could even attempt to trace the origin of that thought, an overwhelming pressure enveloped the entire region—Anfang's World Will had decided to manifest.

A spectral blur materialized in front of Eren in a somewhat humanoid form, positioned a few meters away. With just a glance, Eren knew who this profound entity was.

"I have kept my promise. Now it's time for you to fulfill your end of the deal."

Eren stated calmly, bowing before Anfang's World Will. However, before Anfang's World Will could respond, another entity took hold of the spectral form and temporarily anchored itself to this world.

"Hmm?" Eren sensed a change in Anfang's World Will; it was like a colossal mountain replaced by a cosmic star. Identifying the presence, he bowed once more.

"It seems you know of me," stated the entity in a voice that didn't sound like a voice. This entity had superseded Anfang's World Will.

"From God Aleph's memories," Eren replied calmly. "He referred to you as his mother."

"I wanted to witness who he has chosen as his inheritor," the entity responded in a neutral tone.

"Summon your Spirit Beast. By the laws of cause and effect, I will fulfill the promise made to you," the entity added.

Eren didn't think it was the appropriate moment to ask questions, so he obliged and summoned his Spirit Beast. It changed the air, giving it water-like properties as it encircled Eren.

The being referred to as God Aleph's mother did not question Eren or say anything further. It seemed as if she had gleaned his past and present merely from observation. 

Through her thoughts alone, she commenced the process of transforming Eren's Spirit Beast into the God Spark.
