Chapter 425: Worlds Wills Blessing (1/2)
With the defeat of the last dregs of the Dark World denizens the World of Elements finally became rid of the threat of invasion.
If in the future an Invasive World once again punches a hole in this world's space to create a Portal, the denizens were already equipped to push them away.
But if they invaded by traveling using a Space Vessel, that would be something inevitable.
The World's Will would surely bar their way from entering. However, Ele or any other World's Will's strength isn't absolute.
They also grow alongside their denizens and they're beings without any Physical Bodies. Despite having the ability to create an Incarnation through the world's Source Energy, it was at the expense of their own 'Essence'.
Well, I'll call it Essence, for now, to refer to the existence of these World's Wills.
At the moment, my consciousness was once again summoned by Ele.
Compared to before, this space where she could manifest herself indefinitely felt a lot more colorful than before. Not far from the beach was a small brick house, reminiscent of the structures at a human city. There were also towering trees providing shade as well as aquatic and avian life.
Unlike the first time I got summoned in this space, all known Elements could now be perceived in the surroundings. Natural, Special and Incomprehensible Elements.
They were all represented by something that could normally be associated with them.
As I walked along the beach because Ele was nowhere to be seen despite summoning me here, my feet led me to the small brick house.
I pushed open the wooden door which produced a creaking sound as if it was real.
I stepped in and found the culprit who summoned me in this space but didn't even bother welcoming me or rather, she waited for me to search for her.
Ele, with the same appearance as before, was sitting on a wooden chair with her eyes closed and her eyebrows knitted. Perhaps thinking about something she learned about recently.
Earlier, after I tortured some information out of that descendant, I passed him to the World's Will. She could also scan and read his memories once she drained him out of his Source Energy, converting it to enrich the Elemental Energy.
Perhaps the reason she summoned me here was to relay whatever she learned that I failed to extract from that poor guy.
”You seem more and more human-like these days, what's on your mind that you have to make that kind of expression?”
Naturally, she's already aware of my presence. She's the one who summoned me here after all. But for her to keep that up, contrary to her expressionless face that I already got used to seeing, she's either intentionally letting me see it or it was a piece of really serious information that she didn't know where to begin.
When she heard my voice, Ele's eyebrows relaxed and her eyelids fluttered open.
Upon putting me under her gaze, she sighed.
She stood up and walked over to my side before waving her hand.
Before I could make out what she did, an image appeared in my mind.
Inside that image were tens of Space Vessels lifting up to the sky and out into whatever's beyond it. The passengers all exuded the aura of a Rank 2 Transcendent and beyond.
The one who's exuding the highest aura or rather the terrifying aura of a demon was standing far ahead with his arms crossed. However, his face was blurred as if a thick fog was covering it.
The image seemed to be coming from someone's eyes and it's easy to guess that this was extracted from that descendant's memory.
”Listen Olga. When you reach the same height as them, you will also experience the mysteriousness of the Boundless Black Sea and travel through different World Zones.”
Suddenly, a voice rang out from the side and the image moved, showing an older man that resembled that descendant. His father.
”Where are they going?”
And even if I didn't talk, the memory continued to play, making me an eavesdropper.
”To the world of our Creator.”
”Creator… Didn't he abandon our world?”
Their Great Ones' trip to a higher world made them aware of the state of their world.
However, why did he sound so certain about their destination being the world of their Creator?
Was it recognized by them 7 years ago or was there some other reason?
”He didn't abandon us. He disappeared along with His world, leaving us floating somewhere to fend for ourselves.”
”Isn't that the same as abandoning us?”
”Perhaps. That's why we're going to search for him.”
”Why do we need to?”
Before the old voice answered, the memory stopped there and my vision cleared up. Ele's eyes were still trained on me as she's waiting for my reaction.
”Is that what's going on in your mind? What's wrong with it?”
”The memory stopped there. It's just a remnant of his memories, what happened next were all erased.”
”I see. It got you so curious.”
