500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System

Chapter 645 The Wrath for the Fallen

Freshly illuminated, I looked at Truth. "What now? Do I just close my eyes?"

"Not so fast. First thing, you have made a Pact with Akasha, but you have yet to seal it. There is a problem that comes with this. Once you take her from Xieus, the Eldritch will force a Pact with Kadeon in the same instant. He will try to retreat, but you are not to follow him yet. Seal your reality from his, and cleanse yours of his influence. Only then will you have the power to fight him. You understand why you have to do things in this order, yes?"

My head was spinning, overwhelmed with the recently obtained knowledge and the burden of stepping into uncharted territories. Recollecting myself, I nodded, "I believe so. Step by step, remove Kadeon's influence from my reality so he has nothing to leverage against me like he has done with my Royal Guards."

"Good. While sealing the worlds will prevent his direct tampering, the Eldritch will force him to send all the remaining Blood Witches into hiding. They will not be easy for even you to find when you return to the Mortal Realm of the Goddesses. Each of the islands will have to be picked through," Truth explained, and I nodded.

"It is my reality, and I had always planned on exploring every inch of it. Even thinking about it now hardly makes me feel like a god. I know barely anything about this reality," I said as I finally sat up.

"You didn't create this reality, and like Akasha said, you are still a Godling. This reality was created in your image, so it wouldn't be very good if you knew everything from the start. I am sure that even you can appreciate my desire for the unknown, yes?" Truth asked with a grin, and then his body started to change.

As his form started to grow, all the stars around us started to pull towards him. I watched as Truth's true form materialized in front of me for the first time in 14 billion years of being guided by him. Galaxies swirled in an immense, cosmic dance, creating an awe-inspiring panorama of celestial majesty. His figure was indistinct, as though comprised of stardust, nebulae, and the magic of distant quasars. It was like staring at the universe itself, beautiful yet terrifying.

"Wow," was all I could express initially, overwhelmed by the cosmic demonstration. Regaining my composure, I nodded, "I understand. It's about the journey, not the destination."

Truth, now appearing somewhat like a constellation of galaxies, shimmered with an intensity that lit up the far corners of space.

"That's the spirit," he said, his voice seeming to come from everywhere at once. "Think of it not as a burden but an adventure. A chance to explore, to discover, to grow. The universe is full of wonders waiting to be witnessed, secrets to be uncovered, truths to be found."

His celestial figure expanded into a magnificent swirl of patterns, echoing with the patterns of creation and the cosmos. It was like staring into the abyss of the universe, breathtakingly beautiful yet mystifying and untamed.

"Now go, Galio, and put into motion what needs to be done. Gather your courage, for you're about to face one of your greatest challenges yet. Remember, control, don't be the puppet. This is your stage, craft your play."

A moment later, Truth faded, his form dissolving into a starry wisp that disappeared into the cosmic void. But even as he vanished, I did not feel alone - his words, full of wisdom and guidance, echoed in my mind. This journey was mine alone, but I was better equipped to face it.

A sense of calm washed over me. My course was clear, and I was prepared to walk the path that awaited me. A new chapter of my journey was about to begin. As I floated there, amid stars and galaxies, I reveled in the sense of endless possibilities.

"I am ready," I muttered to myself, steeled my resolve, and with an empowered flex of divine power, I headed into the unknown that awaited me.

I opened my eyes to the sound of Kadeon's laughter. The scene was the same as I had left, but I was not the same. Kadeon's laughter abruptly cut off as I smiled at him.

"What is the meaning of this?! Why are you not screaming in despair?! Do you not care for the creature that I am about to devour?!" He demanded, but then looked around in shock as he stood where I had just been. I was in his spot.

"I have to thank you for this. You know?" I said and then turned to the struggling monstrous form of Xieus being consumed by Akasha. "I am sure that you will be happy as well with this outcome. I want nothing more than to try and kill you here and now, but I am not sure if I can yet," I said while walking up to Xieus and placing a hand that burned with blue and white light on her face.

"Of course, you can't kill me, but I will kill you!" Kadeon's monstrous form roared, but I just tipped my head backward casually to look over my shoulder.

Instantly, I forced the space around Kadeon to collapse, crushing his entire being into a single point. I released the single atom that I couldn't destroy, and slowly Kadeon's body reformed. He was back in his human form now, held in place, and covered in sweat.

"Ha! I told you!" Kadeon barked out, but there was a slight tremble in his voice. I raised an eyebrow and did it again.

The process was the same, but rather than letting him speak, I removed his head from his body. I placed a barrier between them as he screamed, but it didn't seem to kill him. I crushed him 497 more times, only letting him draw a single breath each time.

When I was done, I felt no different, but I didn't do this for me.
