Chapter 459: Star, Niflheim (4)

Lokis presence alone already exuded outstanding majesty. More importantly, he had just smacked Ubbo-Sathla, who had been tormenting Chang-Sun and Bel-Marduk, right in the face!

Craaaaaack!

Loki pulverized Ubbo-Sathlas monsters and covered the spatial gap at the same time, his enormous arms repeatedly getting destroyed and regenerating.

You. Mere. Mortal.

The Outer Celestials of Nyx often called beings of Eros mortals to degrade them. Eros Celestials had given themselves fancy names like transcendent beings and immortals, but from the Outer Celestials perspective, they were no more than beings trapped in their Worldlines, unable to escape .

Ubbo-Sathla thought of Loki as a big fish in a small pond, bound to the restrictions of Worldlines. However, that fish had just landed a decent hit on Ubbo-Sathla. Considering even Tiamat, who dreamed of becoming a Celestial King, was defeated by Ubbo-Sathla, Loki had just achieved an incredible feat.

Hes a Nine Heaven, alright, Chang-Sun thought.

Although Chang-Sun had heard from Thanatos that Loki was powerful, he hadnt expected Loki to be this strong. Considering the situation, Loki certainly held the advantage against Ubbo-Sathla. The spatial gap hadnt completely opened up yet, so Ubbo-Sathla could only use a very small amount of their power from . In contrast, Chang-Sun could use his omnipotence over the Iron Forest to strengthen Loki. Nevertheless, that didnt make stopping Ubbo-Sathlas tentacles on his own any less marvelous.

Do what you have to do, but be quick about it! I wont last long! Loki roared, acknowledging his limits.

Chang-Sun and Bel-Marduk immediately sprang into action.

Marduk, Chang-Sun said.

What?

Buy me some time.

Bel-Marduk looked at Chang-Sun in annoyance, silently asking how much longer he should help him since he had been fighting the monsters and tentacles on his own. However, he soon realized that Chang-Sun was serious.

Fuck! I wont be able to last long either. Im almost out of divine power.

All I need is a moment.

Bel-Marduk wasnt sure what Chang-Sun was trying to do, but he had likely found an answer using his omnipotence and omniscience.

Alright. Lets do this.

Smiling coldly, Bel-Marduk spread his arms out, seemingly about to be crucified.

[The Celestial Taurus has activated the Authority Asarualim[1]!]

Devouring Worldlines and making numerous accomplishments had given Bel-Marduk over fifty Authorities. Among them was Asarualim, a title and power given to those with mystical knowledge. It was created in praise of his wisdom and mastery of magic and supernatural phenomena.

Swoosh, woosh, swish!

Blue light circled Bel-Marduks right hand, forming a heavily compressed whirlpool. Water, the source of his power, sustained life but also had the power to kill, making it the best conduit for harnessing magical power.

[The Celestial Taurus has activated the Authority Namtillaku[2]!]

Namtillaku, a mystic and powerful monarch. Bel-Marduk, the Celestial and ruler of the vast land Babylonia, showed dignity as strong and fearsome as lightning.

Pzzz, pzzz, pzzzzz!

Golden sparks flew up from Bel-Marduks left hand, threatening to explode at any moment.

[The Celestial Taurus has activated the Authority Asaruludu![3]!]

Bel-Marduk put his hands together, combining the blue water current and golden lightning energy to form a sword thousands of meters long. Bel-Marduk didnt use Asaruludu, which meant the bearer of the flaming sword, often due to the long preparation it required, but it was his favorite ability. It was also the power that got him a seat among the Nine Heavens.

Ubbo-Sathlas eye turned bloodshot. They had just witnessed an event unprecedented even for them, an Outer Celestial who had lived an eternity.

was a pathway that allowed Outer Celestials to come into contact with Eros, and was a constituent of . Since was also power, Outer Celestials could use it to activate their Authorities. However, they couldnt influence it because it was the root of their existence.

For beings of Eros, coming into contact with alone already risked having their souls bewitched or overcome with madness, yet Chang-Sun was using it right now.

How. Can. Mere. Mortal. No. Light. Face.

Moreover, the power that Chang-Sun previously used was the trace that had left to operate this universe. Considering it was the polar opposite of , Ubbo-Sathla believed that controlling both was impossible.

As if to prove her wrong, however, Chang-Sun had done just that. Using supreme sacred light, he put all laws of nature of the Iron Forest under his control and recalibrated the system of to gain dominance. Only he could hack the System in such a way. After all, what made it possible was all the future that he had seen.

Some of them showed him in levels he had to live several thousands of years to reach. He had essentially seen the paths he would take some day with a telescope and took the shortcuts.

Faust. What. Hell. Did. He. Do.

Using any means necessary, Ubbo-Sathla tried to force the spatial gap of open again, but Chang-Suns omnipotence stopped the Outer Celestials resistance.

Thud!

The thunderous sound of a very heavy metal gate being forcibly shut reverberated as the spatial gap was closed, revealing the blue sky. They could no longer detect Ubbo-Sathlas energy.

[Omniscience and omnipotence have been deactivated!]

Chang-Sun fell to the ground, no longer able to use his power. Although he had taken a shortcut, he had pushed himself past his Divine Class limits far too much.

Youre a handful. Bel-Marduk flew toward Chang-Sun and snatched him before he hit the ground.

Chang-Sun drooped in Bel-Marduks arms, unconscious, making Bel-Marduk laugh dumbfoundedly. Although they had agreed to temporarily join forces, they had been at each others throats for a long time prior to their agreement. He wasnt sure if it was wise for Chang-Sun to show weakness right now.

Fortunately for Chang-Sun, Bel-Marduk had no intention to harm him right now. Despite everything they had gone through, they were in this mess together now. He wouldnt gain anything from hurting him.

Hence, Bel-Marduk looked up at Loki instead, finding him gazing down at Chang-Sun and exuding menacing Divine Class.

Hes a mess right now. Well have to continue the talk elsewhere.

Loki stared at Chang-Sun for a bit longer, then turned in the opposite direction. Okay. Follow me.

* * *

Chang-Sun grasped onto his aching head as he forced his eyes open. The last thing he could remember was kicking Ubbo-Sathla back to .

Where am I?

Considering he was lying down on a bed, Bel-Marduk and Loki had likely brought him to this place. Thinking he should figure out where he was first, he turned his head.

Woof!

Woof?

Chang-Sun looked down, finding a baby Siberian Husky panting and wagging his tail. The dog seemed delighted to meet him.

Woof, woof!
