Chapter 277: The History Behind

-----

Chaos stepped into the cosmos in front of him, like a beautiful island in the middle of the ocean of empty void. This island was spherical, however, and resembled more of a gigantic semi-transparent balloon filled with galaxies up until the eye could see, all interconnected into massive expanses in the shape of roots across such a beauty.

And within it, the entity that Chaos was following sensed it, the presence of something truly wonderful! A glowing orb that contained the power of this Universe.

Yes, Chaos realized it already, this thing before him was the Universe he was living in!

And as he looked around while the entity swam across the sea of emptiness, there were many more like this! many Universes spread across a vast and never-ending ocean of gray void which had somehow become pseudo liquid.

The entity swam through it without much effort, covering itself in the same essence that Chaos had gained, the Essence of Demise.

"Just as I thought, the Essence of Demise can mildly inhibit the degeneration that the Sea of Emptiness causes to all beings that touches it… Fascinating… I wish I could fly above it, but its enormous pressure and gravitational forces are too tremendous, it forces anything around to fall over it anyways… this area of the Outer Space is already something that beings below my Realm cannot even fathom to touch! They would only become nothing in less than a split of a second." The being spoke to himself, as he unknowingly explained to Chaos some very important things that he didn't knew about.

"…"

Chaos looked attentively at everything going on, as he dived through this sea of emptiness with this being, feeling as if his entire body was being crushed endless times over, yet it didn't hurt him as it was only the effect of whatever this imagery and scenery was.

"Almost there…!"

The being quickly reached the Universe at long last, shaping its massive claws as an enormous black blade that pierced across the Universe's layer, piercing through it and opening a massive entering, which he jumped over without hesitating for a single second.

SLASH!

Suddenly, the water-like substance dissipated as Chaos and this entity found themselves inside the Universe at long last!

"So I've reached it! Those foolish cowards didn't wanted to come here… But I fear no being in here… I will harvest this Universal Core and become a Universe-level entity…! My dream for antiquity will not end until I achieve my goals!" spoke the monstrous entity, as if it were a brave hero stepping into the challenge ahead!

He flew across the Universe at an incredible speed and reached the many branches Galaxies interconnected together.

He looked at them as if they were smaller.

Chaos didn't realized it earlier, but this being was so enormous that even galaxies were smaller than his own body!

He extended his massive amounts of darkness like a gigantic jaw, and bit into the galaxies…

And he began to devour hundreds of galaxies at the same time!

"…?!"

Chaos felt shocked, what kind of monstrous being was able to devour entire galaxies like nothing?

Who was this being?

Was this being…

Who Chaos really think it was?

The Forbidden one?

Was he… this strong?

"…"

Chaos continued to look in complete silence as the monstrous being traveled across the Universe and devoured galaxies like a whale swallows' krill across the ocean, only to realize he wasn't doing this deliberately, he was slowly tearing apart a formation.

Indeed, it was a Universal Formation made of thousands of Galaxies stuck together in place, they all formed a massive prism that encapsulated and protected the Universal Core, the shiny and bright jewel to a massive distance from here, which he could somehow clearly see.

However, the monstrous being's feast quickly came to an end as several figures descended! Flashes of bright heaven light fell over it, enormous being almost of his same size emerged, winged with beautiful feathers, bright golden eyes, and blonde hair, they were majestic, feathered beings, angels!

And leading the Angels there was a glorious and beautiful young man, with long blonde hair, flashing aquamarine eyes, and a muscular yet slim figure, wearing white armor and a long blade covered in flames, with three pairs of wings…

"I am the Archangel Gabriel, monster of the Outer Void, Spawn of Azathoth go back where you came from!"

"Y-You…! So God is acting! Heheh… Hahaha! Good! Let's see if he can stop me!" laughed the entity.

"Foolish being! I shall teach you a lesson!" said the Archangel Gabriel.

A massive battle of universal proportions began, massive explosions of heaven light and distorting black void occurred everywhere, countless galaxies were disintegrated before their immense might.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Angels were struggling, this entity from the Outer Void held tremendous power!

Many angels were consumed in the battle, completely dissipating into ashes and dying, many were fighting while putting everything they had, and although many were falling, there were a few of them that were specially relentless, Chaos realized these figures were incredibly powerful beings across the Universe, the Seven Archangels that served God!

Gabriel led these archangels, as all seven of them held a mystical and primordial power of an attribute of Virtue, which they utilized to overwhelm the Forbidden One!

"Now! Seven Virtues Cross Arts: Desecration of Evil!"

"HAHHH!!!"

All seven Archangels unleashed attacks using their Elemental Blades and the power of their Primordial Virtues, as the Forbidden One was actually defeated!

"W-What?! T-This is… Impossible! H-How strong are you…?! No…! Uuuaaggghh…!"

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

He was suddenly cut down seven times!

All seven of his pieces were then cut seven more times!

And then, all of such pieces were cut more and more, until countless of his pieces were made, and all of them were quickly sealed by the brilliance of Heaven Magic!

However, the Archangels couldn't take them all, some ended escaping from them through the remaining will of the Forbidden One, these ones flew into random Galaxies, although a large group of them ended landing in the Galaxy of Nyx…

Incidentally, a few of them ended throwing a small little angel girl into a faraway planet…
