Chapter 496: Explanations

-----

Crack… crack!

The large White egg that had emerged when Ervas changed Jobs to Ophion began to crack open, as the eggshell pieces started to fall into the void down below.

The egg had been born like some fruit, growing out of the entangled branches between the Divine Tree of Void and Life and the Divine Tree of Death and Chaos.

However, when Veronica finally changed Jobs to Eurynome after evolving is when the egg suddenly began to hasten its growth, the fetus inside began to grow at an exponential rate with every second, as if time itself was accelerating.

They knew that something would happen to this egg, the Cosmic Egg.

It was as if it was all made for this moment. The trees emerging, fusing their branches, and forming the egg when Ervas took the Ophois Job… and then Veronica taking the Eurynome Job and finally triggering this.

As more eggshells fell from the egg, bright golden light comes out of it, shining so brightly it could easily leave some people blind.

"It's happening… It is actually hatching…" said Veronica.

"The cosmic egg that formed some time ago… It's already hatching so fast…" said Ervas.

Kireina who flew at their side also watched over this splendorous sight… whatever Ervas and Veronica had created, the entity within the egg was definitely not normal.

"This is crazy… Well, my main body does things just as insane…" said Kireina.

After defeating Fernando or Beelzebub, they had believed they could finally catch a break, but the sudden insights and premonitions they received the moment they leveled up and evolved were outside of this world, and it was all connected to this egg…

The battle was not over yet, and this entity within the egg would lead them to their next battlefield, to finally get some payback with someone who has been proactively trying to kill the two.

This egg had emerged through the mystical and divine powers that their split souls had developed and through the power of the Samsara System, which had evolved with them each time they evolved and grown stronger and greater each time their souls strengthened.

And now, after their latest evolution where they reached a state of divinity that far surpassed their previous forms, the power they gained was infused into the egg, triggering its hatching.

The System quickly decided to explain things up to Ervas and Veronica for a bit, as they still held many questions.

"System, can you explain to us a bit more how this is happening?" asked Veronica.

"We know that we triggered the creation of the egg through our evolutions, the trees forming, and the job changes but still…" said Ervas.

"Well, in simple terms, and according to the information compiled within my database, this Cosmic Egg was born from the fusion of both of yours Divinities, Souls, and Primordial Essence," said the System.

"It was made with our souls?" asked Veronica.

"Pretty much, just as much as the trees which were also made by your souls. You simply already possessed these abilities or the possibility to acquire them after you devoured all those entities before. After eating four Gods, it simply strengthened, and it seems that their nutritious divinities were the last ingredient… It could be said that this entity is something like… Err, a child of you two." Said the System.

"Child?!" asked Ervas and Veronica at the same time… they never expected to have children with each other, especially when they used to be the same being once! However, it seemed that this child was born unintentionally and purely through the soul.

"Since your Divine Realms fused as one is that your soul's Primordial Essence fused too, and so your Divinities and Divine Energy… It all gathered within the two trees. After the trigger generated by the Jobs, the Cosmic Egg was formed by the fusion of the essential ingredients it requires to be born, Void Divine Mana, Chaos Divine Mana, Life Divine Mana, and Death Divine Mana. All these types of attributes are incredibly rare, although Life not so much..." Said the System.

"Oh! I see. So it was generated due to their uniqueness as the two souls are divine, fused, and contain a crap ton of Divine Mana of Void, Chaos, Life, and Death, huh? Wait, then does that means that my main body can generate a Cosmic Egg too whenever she acquires Death Divinity?" wondered Kireina.

"I don't really know the full capabilities of your main body, Kireina, but I would say that it might be a possibility… Though there is the need for a special recipe, knowledge, and an inner understanding of the Laws of Void, Chaos, Life, and Death, though such a step was able to be skipped due to the power of Job Changes, which readjust the power of the wielder and make it be capable of achieving things with its own power which it wouldn't be able to do alone without gathering immense amounts of personal experience and resources," said the System.

"Well, that's quite cheat…" said Kireina.

"Nonetheless, to gather such amount of energy to generate a Cosmic Egg like this… it could have only been done by the two of you, not even the Gods of this World nor those of other worlds might be able to do this because to firstly create the egg, you must fuse your souls together… And it is not like it's widespread information, this is something that not many know, to begin with. And as I stated previously the steps, recipe, and the comprehension of laws was something needed too, which you skipped through Jobs," said the System once more.

"I see… Well, it still confusing as heck! But at the very least a few things were cleaned up… Though, this is still quite ridiculous," said Veronica.

"Indeed, it is amazing that we were able to create something that we shouldn't be able to through the use of our fused souls and the Jobs… So we would need to comprehend Laws of Void, Chaos, Life, and Death to even begin understanding a way to create a Cosmic Egg? Jobs are definitely quite overpowered," said Ervas.

"Well, Jobs cannot cover everything though… And it would still be recommended that you could begin to comprehend the Laws as soon as possible," said the System, as she was interrupted by a golden claw crawling out of the egg!

"But how can we even start doing that? Ah! It's coming out!" said Veronica, pointing at the egg with her phantasmal index finger, as Ervas eyes widened in surprise.

"A golden claw… and such splendor…" said Kireina.

"And this aura of greatness… but there is also an aura of darkness within the bright light…" said Ervas.

CLASH!

Another claw came out of the egg, this time it was completely dark and metallic, and exuding abyssal darkness within!

CRASH!

The egg suddenly exploded into pieces, which dissipated into particles of light and darkness, revealing the creature that came out of the egg once and for all!

An enormous and splendorous two-headed dragon!

Its body size easily surpassed 50 meters, and its entire body was packed with hard and metallic scales. The right head was black-scaled, and held a furious and raging expression with crimson eyes, while the left head was golden-scaled, and held a calm expression with shining golden eyes!

It exuded an aura of Void, Chaos, Life, and Death!
