Chapter 481: Hekaton's Plans

-----

Hekaton glanced with a calm and composed expression, which seemed more expressionless than anything at the world of Kritias.

Using his new Familiar Spirit, a man named Alex which was granted the Clairvoyance Skill several years ago by him, he was able to focus his vision into the world of Kritias right above Seashore, where certain events were occurring.

The System Master was not present at the moment, but he had already left many things in motion, this young God had surprised Hekaton with his ability to create things through the strange Systems he was able to employ, alongside that, he was distinctively cunning and incredibly chaotic.

Hekaton couldn't help but always be wary of him when this young God was near him, as his origins seemed mysterious, although he more or less knew that he originated from the "Strange" world of Genesis, a chaotic world where Kireina came from as well.

However, although he was wary of him, he had to admit that his abilities were very useful, and what he was capable of doing, when combined with his powers, became very useful tools, little things that could accumulate over time and give an edge to the enemies that Ervas and Veronica confronted, making them greater challenges which they wouldn't be able to easily beat…

Although they didn't trust each other, they shared the same goal and held a truce of mutual benefit, so they worked together to deal with them.

However, recently, the System Master had gone back near his world and then attacked by something, which had bitten his soul… After that, Hekaton heard from him that he would be taking some time to recover and that he had to deal with "some even more important business" back into his original world, Genesis.

Nonetheless, the System Master and Hekaton had already done many things, and they were now all being unleashed as the triggers were activated.

The trigger? Ervas and Veronica.

Ullmarauth, amongst all the other Gods of Seashore, was given this help.

He was the dumbest of all the four gods, and the most savage as well, it was extremely easy to convince him to cooperate in exchange for power.

Like this, he ended up absorbing a special item that the System Master ad Hekaton created, named Demon God-King's Pill.

This Pill had the crystalized residual essence, thoughts, and some power of the Demon God-King's Consciousness formed within the Necromancer, which the System Master had caught long ago.

When he caught him, the Necromancer's remnant soul was feed with power and then brainwashed into becoming a loyal entity to the two.

Abusing the unique properties of this Consciousness formed through several means through mere coincidence, they enhanced it and made it into useful Soul-parasitizing pawns, which they used in conjunction with the items materialized from the powers of the System Master and the help of Hekaton to boost the power of certain targets.

Ullmarauth was one of them, alongside Fernando…

Hekaton never expected that Ullmarauth would become useful so fast, but it seems that he had already begun to move.

After fusing himself with the crystalized residual consciousness of the modified Demon God-king, he had become a loyal and malicious entity that obeyed Hekaton and held contact with him.

Given several tools to enhance his power, Ullmarauth had begun to make his move rather immediately after Ervas and Veronica began to fight the other Demon Gods.

He had tried to convince Xorkoch to join him, but the Demon God had rejected him, and through the use of the Special Artifact made by the System Master named [Void-Slicing Spatial Blade] which he qualified as a True-Rank Divine Realm Item… whatever that meant, Ullmarauth used this Artifact originated from Genesis to break through the space of Xorkoch and attack him.

Everyone that fused with the Modified Demon God-King Consciousness had the power to parasitize and modify souls, alongside having a few limited Death Attribute Spells.

Using this Soul Parasitizing power, Ullmarauth attacked Xorkoch and had quite possibly taken over him and made him into another of the Demon God-King's Parasite Clones.

Hekaton glanced at Seashore through Clairvoyance, as he suddenly sensed a strong presence warping through space…

"There…" muttered Hekaton, fusing his hands with the Familiar Spirit he had, whose mind was modified by him to be completely robotic and devoid of any sense of self.

He saw Ervas and Veronica, at last, their presence surprised him… they had once more grown stronger.

"They already ate two Demon Gods… but they shouldn't be able to acquire such an amount of power from those two, they were fairly weak… How odd," thought Hekaton.

"No. This is not odd, their very beings had evolved… they are becoming able to draw way more power from the souls they shatter and assimilate into their beings… and the Samsara System that those Gods copied from me and then stuck into their souls is probably evolving at their sides. It would be interesting if I could get my hands on it, perhaps many insights could help me in the development of the Samsara System." Thought Hekaton, awaiting the confrontation from the backseat of his comfortable Divine Realm.

Ervas and Veronica continued to fly through space, as Kireina quickly reached the area where Xorkoch's Divine Realm should be… But she found nothing.

"So he had moved… Breaker of Boundaries…" said Veronica, using her Skill coupled with her Divine Paranormal Senses Skill, combing both effects and becoming capable of seeing through the layers of space.

There, she quickly and easily found the trails of space, the Divine Realm of Xorkoch most likely, moving towards a direction.

Without any time to waste, she and Ervas rushed through this trail, until suddenly, they found a large space, a Divine Realm, sitting right in front of them!

"There it is!" said Ervas.

"Yeah, I saw it, let's go!" said Veronica, expanding her metallic claws towards the Spatial Walls of the Divine Realm and shattering an entrance through the combination of her Breaker of Boundaries and Kireina's Spatial Magic of Foreign Trespassing.

Crack… crack…!

CRASH!

With a loud crash, a large entrance opened, and the fused split souls quickly entered the area, a completely black space.

They felt two presences within here, and assumed that the two last Demon Gods were trying to cooperate to kill them! And well, to an extent, it was the truth!
