In the starry space above the Verittas Fortress, all the attention was on the appearance of two enormous star sized forms of a being with wriggling tentacles that thrummed with the power of Aether!
I’m the eyes of the watching beings, there seemed to be a plot afoot as the forces of Celestials looked to be in disorder.
A being clad in golden armament that many beings were rubbing their eyes to confirm it was the image of the War Princess- this being was actually attacking her own forces as her golden luster was becoming bathed in blood!
At the position where the being known as Crixus the Destroyer used to be, one of the monstrous star sized Young Terrors had also appeared, the force of three Star Forging Celestial Commanders going missing there after! And now, the same monstrosity had appeared in the space where three beings with Authority were battling, this time having the addition of brilliant wings of light being attached to this moving star, a Palpatine dangerous energy constantly vibrating out of it.
Disorder in the ranks of Celestials, terribly powerful beings appearing on the battlefield. At the center of it all was a single being that continued to break all known norms, and h currently trapped two Star Forging Celestials that were actually Fate Lords within the bounds of his body!
These were genuine Fate Lords, each one having mastered more than 50% of the Law of Fate, and this meant that they had more than 5 million fate lines.
Just from a conservative estimate on the effect of the Fate Stealer ability taking away 12% of the amassed Fate Lines of these beings, that meant Noah would gain more than 600,000 Fate Lines from just a single one of them.
And this was exactly what happened as he released baleful Rays of Aether while utilizing [Masterful Aether Control] around his spiked and slimy tentacles to constrict the one known as Commander Lylle to death, this Star Forger being the first to go as he released a resplendent amount of Fate Lines towards Noah.
“Brother!”
Commander Verdant was crying out painfully as he witnessed this, never imagining that he would ever be in this precarious position when they had prepared so much!
Just what could have gone wrong? Where did everything begin to fall apart?!
No answer was waiting for him as the only reason he still kept his life was because of his mastery in the law of earth as well, the green film of light reinforcing his golden essence of fate being his saving grace as he was able to survive a few seconds longer.
But it truly was not sustainable. This was because in the constantly shrinking area Commander Verdant was in, Noah was releasing attacks from the Dark Guider skill tree along with the abilities of the Young Cthulhu and the respective skills from the Herald of Fire and Water skill trees, mixing up the attacks this being received as he was faced with constantly changing attacks.
His mental defenses further could not remain as Noah released [Madness Descension], his soul fighting strongly to keep his consciousness active as it continued to slip away from him!
“You…will never succeed…!”
Commander Verdant spat out painful last words as the golden and green light around him faded, even his laid out Authority that was canceled with the three Authorities that Noah laid out not being able to save him as his body began to be ripped apart by fearsome tentacles!
RIIIP!
Blood and gore were all that remained in a matter of seconds, Noah’s main body trembling as hundreds of thousands of Fate Lines rushed towards him again.
In the Realm Dreadnaught where his second clone was holding on to the body of the maddened Grandmaster Vredral, an eerie silence permeated in the control room as well as the entire Realm Dreadnaught!
This was because Noah had spread out his energy any Celestials that were taking post within the enormous Vessel were killed, him and Vredral being the only two beings remaining in it.
“Your Fate Lords have fallen, along with three Star Forgers from the help of your first disciple.”
Noah’s clone spoke out as he kneeled down and placed his palm on the floor of the enormous Realm Dreadnaught, his voice continuing as his energy spread out once again.
“As much as I would love to make you watch even more, there is something else much more important that I need to be doing now. I’ll see you again after a bit, Master.”
Noah’s second clone waved his other hand towards Vredral as his body disappeared, teleported away without his permission as the Realm Dreadnaught below the clone also began to fade away!
RUMBLE!
Waves of essence erupted out as Noah wrapped his essence around the entirety of the Vessel, warping it as he placed all of it into his Expansive Space.
“…”
Those nearby and could still have the energy to pay attention saw the disappearance of the continental-sized Realm Dreadnaught, the only thing appearing in its place being a devilishly handsome figure who could barely be discerned from a far distance.
But the eyes of the figure, of Noah’s second clone- actually had an intense light as they were focusing on to a single being far across the expanse of the battlefield!
It would actually be apt to say that he was looking at three figures, as each of his bodies actually had their eyes locked on towards the three remaining Star Forging Celestial Commanders that were fighting in panic with the forces of the Verittas Fortress.
This was because the moment Noah killed the 2 Fate Lords and made his kill count of the Star Forgers 5, his Fate Lines had unbelievably shot up towards 8 million!
8 million!!!
The two Fate Lords alone had given him close to 1.5 million because of their comprehension in the Law Of Fate and having a bit over 6 million Fate Lines, the prior three Celestial Star Forgers who had not yet gained the title of Fate Lord also granting him a similar amount.
This meant that in the span of a few minutes, he had actually snatched over 3 million Fate Lines, his progression abruptly shooting over 8 million.
It was utterly ridiculous and went against every possible logic, and yet he was still able to do it!
Now, his eyes honed in on the three remaining Star Forgers as he knew if he could just have these remaining Celestials…he might just actually be able to achieve something nearly impossible!
