Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Chapter 1046 When a person ceases to exist?

Zatiel nodded as he saw the resolution in the Daybreak Universe's warriors. Each and every one of them was ready to embrace non-existence if that was what it took to defeat the Beyonder.

"Go with your family and friends. You should spend these next few days in peace and harmony to prepare your souls for what comes next.

Come back in five days. I will help those who have yet to evolve to rise into the Fourth Realm with even greater power and engrave the battle-runic formation in your Primordial Essence before marching into our final fight."

Ezequiel, Venganza, Orgullo, and the other fourteen warriors nodded to Zatiel with solemn expressions on their faces. They would use these last few days to enjoy their time with their families and friends since they might never see them again.

All seventeen powerhouses left the room, leaving Zatiel on his own. However, he was not alone for long since a few seconds later, a figure began to materialize.

A black humanoid entity with white holes for eyes and a sinister arc for mouth appeared in the room. That was no other than the physical embodiment of the Beyonder!

"Do you really think such a basic and predictable plan will be useful against me?"

Despite not having a face, the mocking tone in his voice was enough to depict the feelings the Beyonder had for the Daybreak Universe's warriors.

Silence reigned in the room as Zatiel remained silent. The Beyonder's white eyes narrowed as he saw that.

Zatiel did not use his power to blast the figure away, nor did he utter a single word, and just focused on this one.

"Are you refusing to interact with the hope of avoiding making me stronger, as it happened during our last interaction?"

The Beyonder showed a large smile as he uttered those words. In their last interaction, he was able to dominate the exchange, and while he opened Zatiel's eyes to many truths, that also allowed his presence in the Empyrean Pylars of the Verse to grow strong enough to evolve beyond the Antagonist.

Rage, anger, or at least some annoyance. Those were the things the Beyonder wanted to see, but there were no emotions on Zatiel's face.

"You changed."

The playful and mocking tone in the Beyonder's voice faded as he saw how Zatiel behaved.

"Maybe, maybe not. You and I are the two sides of the same coin, but you can not see my mind and soul."

Zatiel's voice was peaceful, completely contrasting with the altered state of his soul and mind during their first exchange.

"You seek to protect the ones you love, to defeat me, and push your existence to the highest level, to the point of becoming a Multi-Versal Existence."

The Beyonder's voice was eerie cold, full of contempt and loath.

"You have become a Reality Override Empyrean Paragon and understand the nature of our existence and everything around us. Yet, you keep following the Creator's Path, like a child unwilling to relinquish his father's hands."

lightsΝοvel Zatiel's response to that speech, full of hate and rage, was a peaceful smile full of happiness.

"And what is wrong with following the Creator's Path? It will give me all I ever wanted. In it, I am the winner, and you are the loser. Why would I go against it?"

The Bayonder remained silent for a few seconds before his body began to tremble. 

"Hahahahahahahahaha!"

Suddenly, the Beyonder burst into laughter as if he had heard the greatest joke in the entire universe. However, it did not last for long since it suddenly stopped, and he just stared at Zatiel.

"What a disappointment. Despite the nature of our existence, I expected you to at least try to carve your own path and not just leave everything to the Creator's Path.

At last, it seems I am the only life form that can truly break beyond this Verse."

The Beyonder glanced into the distance with coldness and killing intent. In those white eyes appeared the reflection of no other than the Oblivion Gate.

"According to the Creator's Path, those seventeen would have burned their souls and left me severely wounded before you gave the final blow. It would have been an epic fight full of turns and twists, but that was the core idea behind it."

The Beyonder made a pause at this point as he turned back to Zatiel.

"But now, their insignificant power can barely drain 1% of my life. I have broken free of the Creator's Path, becoming an entity that was never supposed to exist. You are just part of my tale, and after consuming your essence, I will reach that tower and evolve into something that even the Creator can not imagine." 

Zatiel perceived how every word the Beyonder uttered was engraved in the Empyrean Pillars of the Verse, allowing this one to grow more and more power. However, he just kept smiling, and not a single worry appeared on his face. 

"You underestimated the power of the people ready to fight to the death. You see everything else as a source of energy for your path, and in your mind, nothing but you matters."

The Beyonder stared at Zatiel with coldness but did not negate those words since they were true.

"And you expect the strength of others to grant you the power to rise forward. You wish their hopes and dreams could ignite your soul, but that is a wishful path and the reason I will defeat you."

Zatiel's smile slowly faded as he heard the words of the Beyonder. Although his power belonged to him and no one else, it was true that the drive that pushed his mind and soul beyond every obstacle of his path was the people around him.

The Samsara Thearch looked down, and in his eyes were reflected the trillions of life forms in the Daybreak Break Universe. 

"Tell me, when do you think a person ceases to exist?"

The Beyonder's eyes widened when he heard those words since Zatiel's aura suddenly changed.
