Chapter 649 - A Talk With Mom And Dad 2

-----

The One and Chaos had come to met Veronica, Ervas, and Aurora, and had told them why they couldn't communicate with them before!

It was because they were not able to find a connection through their Origin into their Origin, this was because their true Origin was within the World Cores of Kritias, both of them.

Now that they finally got them back after devouring one and fusing with another, they had gained

a bit more of their true selves in the process, and these two entities were able to communicate with them once more.

The One had gone through some changes on his original nature, this was due to Kireina herself.

Why? It was because The One was an aloof and nihilistic god. Despite how he was portrayed in Christian Religion.

Because he knew everything, he wasn't able to properly find entertainment and fulfillment to life, he wasn't able to find any other meaning than just existence itself.

He was able to see and know everything through his special ability, his Trait, which gave him all the knowledge of future and past events within his entire Universe and perhaps the other Universes vastly away from this one.

However, when Kireina awakened her Trait, Defiance, a power she inherently had within her Origin Core, she destabilized the entirety of the Universe's predestined future, and weakened The One's power.

Through this, he realized that now that he could not know everything, life had meaning once more as he was able to look forward to an unknown future.

He quickly then realized how much of a fool he had been his entire life, and even quickly managed to realize that he had to do something more, something else for his life!

With the power he had, with everything he had, and with the children he had left behind, he had to quickly make up with them and find once more a purpose to this life that wasn't of a hollow and scared man that was just as strong as a Universe.

He realized that even if his powers were to come back, he wouldn't be able to be the same already, this mere and slight change completely changed The One.

He wanted to be a good father now, as he saw Chaos working so hard for her own children… he wanted to help her.

His feelings suddenly began to blossom as he realized that he had feelings too, and that he felt strong emotions of attachment to this eternal being at his side that has been living through the same life yet had lived it very differently than him…

He realized how strong this feeling was that he was able to even love her. The love that he never had truly felt before… when he and Chaos were in a premature relationship.

In these times, both of them were trying to forge new beings similar to them, Primordial Deities, and unified their power through a connection, creating new beings by fusing their essences, souls, and origins.

These beings came to be in the Universe and were named the Children of Chaos and The One, the Children of the Universe, by others.

Unique existences that existed with the purpose to one day become Primordial Deities just like them, and to fill their hollow lives and the void they felt without having those of his kin to live with.

However, although Chaos still as enthusiast of taking care of her children, The One slowly feel depressed and hollow as he saw their tragic future and the even more tragic future of Chaos.

Without any way to change the future, he found no meaning in even trying. He left her alone and left everything aside, and holed himself inside of his Primordial Realm.

He felt powerless. He wasn't able to change the future, there was no meaning to anything.

"What's the point?" he wondered at that time.

But now that such a future was broken by Defiance, a law-breaking power that changed the entire Universe and perhaps, even further beyond that by giving a possibility to do anything to Kireina, the fates and futures he saw which were indestructible began fragile and could be changed.

There was now a chance for everything.

Anything could happen now…

And as the future he held as the truth shattered before him, the husk of a man that he was now felt an even more terrible and eternal sorrow as he realized how stupid he was.

Now, he was throwing aside his pride to come and meet his beloved children, the ones he should had always look over to instead of not…

He felt ashamed with his own foolishness, so much he wanted to die out of embarrassment sometimes…

"What have I done?" He wondered.

He and Chaos explained this entire drama to the three in front of them.

"I see… So you're just a terrible father that wants to make up for it? Well, not like we were ever raised by either of you anyways, we don't feel any anger against you." Said Veronica.

"We remember our previous life parents, and now that I have two parents in this life too, I see them as my true parents… Sorry if this sounded rude." Said Ervas.

"No… It is fine. They took care of you and loved you more than we ever did. They are mor deserving of being called parents than us." Sighed Chaos.

"Indeed. But at the very least, we want to still help you and make up for it." Said The One.

"I see, I guess we can do that." Said Veronica.

"Indeed. But what do you want of this alliance? Wait… The One, can you help us to fight against Samsara? After we killed Hekaton, he has sent a squadron of Celestials to kill us… we had just swallowed the world of Kritias, and we are currently flying through space." Said Ervas.

"I know Chaos is sealed and she can't do much, but you… you clearly can help us, right? You're an all-powerful Primordial Deity!" said Veronica.

"It would be very appreciated if you could lend us a hand." Said Aurora.

"And if you can, why not Kireina too?" asked Veronica, referring to Kireina in Genesis.

However, The One fell silent.
