515 The Curse of the Universe (1/2)
The Supreme God could just see as Yale's main body and the incarnation fused because the incarnation was the only one able to move at that moment.
However, he didn't fear it because a full-power Yale couldn't defeat him before, so although he would need to waste some more time, he didn't doubt that Yale would be cornered again.
The Supreme God wouldn't be so calm if he could see the smile on Alter Yale's face when Yale absorbed the incarnation.
”As I expected, but the next step is critical. Don't disappoint me because failure isn't allowed. It may be cruel since you don't know anything about this plan, but you can't know, or it would be all meaningless.”
Alter Yale had faith in Yale and the plan, and he believed that everything would work well, but it was impossible that he could be sure of how everything would go.
”The curse on our universe is far too strong. I only noticed about it after coming back to this era, but not even at my peak, I would have been able to break it, nor I would dare. I can think of only one individual capable of something like this curse, and I wouldn't dare to defy that person even if I wanted to die. Thus, to escape of the loop that the curse created, we need to finish this war, but we need to do it fulfilling certain conditions or someday another time travel would happen, returning to this era...”
Alter Yale was speaking without anyone to listen to him because although he didn't show it, he was somewhat nervous. After all, of all the plan, that part was the most uncertain.
In fact, Alter Yale had a method to kill the Supreme God at that moment and finish the war, but he knew that the result of it would be that the curse would end making Yale return to the past someday to change the outcome.
Although Alter Yale didn't know the exact motives that led that fearsome individual to use God's Punishment, the highest curse level, to a small universe, he knew that no one was able to understand how that individual thought. Thus, Alter Yale couldn't even try to find a reason for needing such a specific outcome to leave the war in the past forever.
Alter Yale had met that individual before, and he had to admit that he was unable to see through the individual's power although they supposedly were at the same level. In fact, Alter Yale never believed that such a fearsome individual was at the same level as him.
That individual belonged to an organization that as far as Alter Yale knew was the oldest and most powerful organization of the multiverse, the Council of Gods.
Although they were just an organization in name since each individual acted as pleased, they were the ones deciding the rules for the universes, so there were a lot of Gods that wanted to join even if it was just as a servant.
As for joining as a member, there were only two ways. The standard one was having at least two-thirds of the Council of Gods accepting someone as a new member, which was quite difficult.
However, the second method was even more difficult. Killing a member of the Council of Gods and take that person place.
Alter Yale became a member by coincidence because a member of the Council of God's tried to kill him but was killed by Alter Yale instead.
He was quite hated in the Council of Gods, but the place where the Council of Gods reunited was a place where violence wasn't allowed even if it was mortal hatred.
After all, there were a lot of grudges between members, and it was impossible to speak if a war happened each time.
A member of the Council of God's couldn't receive God's Punishment even after breaking a rule, but that member could be judged if a third of the members requested it. However, not even Alter Yale was judged like that because supporting that request was the same as becoming an eternal enemy of the judged one.
Besides members, there was another type of person that couldn't be affected by God's Punishment, and that was a person that has already been punished and that punishment hadn't finished.
For the same crime, only one member of the Council of Gods could use God's Punishment, so the fastest one decided, but if it was a long-term punishment and another infraction was committed before it finished, only the one who punished it originally could punish it again.
Alter Yale avoided the God's Punishment for his actions before becoming a member of the Council of Gods because the God's Punishment of his universe was still active on him, but at that time he didn't know about it.
That powerful individual didn't even direct a word to him, and he wasn't punished no matter how many times he broke the rules.
Although no one supported Alter Yale in the Council of Gods, there were still neutral members that wouldn't display hostility towards others unless something affected them directly, and that individual was among the neutral ones.
In fact, if that individual had wanted, Alter Yale would have died the first time he broke a rule.
