745 Chapter 745- River Of Destiny & Pride's Authority (4)

Simon was clearly out of his place here, the River of Destiny wasn't something he should come in contact with at his current level.

He turned around no longer looking at the river and moved towards the area from where he came in. However, the broken space had already mended itself and there was no longer an exit he could take to go back.

Just as he was about to ask the second fragment how to get out of here, from the corner of his eyes, he spotted a figure that was similarly floating around the River of Destiny just like him.

Needless to say, the other party was Godwin. Earlier, when the golden light burst out of the latter's body, both of them were pulled inside this unknown domain. The fact that he was dragged here, was their doing.

Simon's killing intent soared, he had to kill the other party and finish what he started no matter what. The notification he got earlier about some Third Fragment activating something after detecting danger on their wielder, also weighed at the corner of his mind.

Godwin seemed to have no shortage of trump cards, only by killing him will he be able to have some peace of mind.

[What are you trying to do? Forget about the other party and get away from here. Although your level and comprehension of the world and its truth is not at the desired level yet to handle my powers, I will lend you my [Authority] this once].

Simon continued to move towards Godwin. He was not ignoring the Second Fragment, but the notification weighed on his mind. In the end, his desire to kill his opponent won over his desire to escape.

Simon arrived before Godwin and noticed that the latter seemed to be acting a little unusual. Their eyes were covered with a golden light and they seemed to be in an unconscious state.

Simon hesitated for a second not knowing what kind of phenomenon the other party was going through. Though in the end, he decided to attack. He activated his skills only to realise that he was unable to use any of his skills or magic.

[The Fateweaver's Energy around the River of Destiny is too strong, it renders all skills and magic useless. Unless it is a higher level power like the Laws, forget about even trying to attack]

The Second Fragment sounded. It appeared that he was unable to use any skills or magic here. Then how should he attack? Should he just give up here?

No, that was not like him. Who knew when he would get another chance like this? It was clear to him that his opponent was going through a special transformation. If he gave up here, he would just leave endless trouble for the future. He needed to grab this chance and snuff this seed of uncertainty that was Godwin.

"I can't use skills or magic here, then I'll just use physical force and throw him into the River of Destiny. You said that falling there means certain death right? Then it's the only way"

Simon started moving, he grabbed the unconscious Godwin and started pushing the latter towards the River of Destiny.

The other party did not struggle which made it all the more easier for him. Just as he neared a certain range towards the colossal River of Destiny, the voice of the Second Fragment cautioned.

[Be careful, you have entered the Third boundary of the River of Destiny, the Temporal Eddy. Here the Mnemonic pull is several times higher. Not only that, time behaves erratically here. There are numerous time loops forming around this boundary. If you are not careful, you will forever be caught 14:48

in it and be pulled into the River of Destiny].

Simon nodded, he was already aware of the dreadfulness of the River of Destiny. As such, he did not relax his nerves for even a second.

After the third boundary, Simon entered the fourth, he only stopped near the fifth boundary and did not enter it. The reason was obvious, even he could tell that once he entered the fifth boundary he would not be able to return.

The gravitational force around the fifth boundary was so strong that everything was crushed, causing black holes to form.

Now all he needed to do was simply push Godwin forward and the fifth boundary will do the rest. Once they entered the gravitational pull of the fifth boundary, they would only have one end and that was to fall into the River of Destiny and die.

Simon did not dilly dally and hurriedly commenced his plans. However, what he forgot to take into account in his plan was Godwin suddenly regaining his consciousness at the last second.

"Hehehe... So this is how it was. The River of Destiny, Althaea, the Fragments... I understand some of it now. To think that it is even capable of something like this... what are the Fragments of the greater constellations?"

He suddenly turned around and grabbed Simon.

[Be careful]

With that, the both of them were pulled into the fifth boundary and were immediately affected by the fierce gravitational pull.

"Shit!! let go of me" Simon cursed, trying to break out of the gravitational force of the fifth boundary. However, in front of the presence of the River of Destiny, his own existence was seemingly smaller than a speck of dust. How could he create any waves?

He was quickly pulled into the sixth boundary and towards the River of Destiny. If he got swept in its current, everything would be over.

Would he die here?

"Demon it looks like you are in possession of some fragments too. No wonder you were able to defeat me. However, this is it for both you and me. The Fragments within me have shown me my destiny, but I am unwilling to accept it. I will not tolerate evil and will continue on my own path".

With that, the knight named Godwin fell into the River of Destiny. It did not even take a second for his body to be torn apart and turned into nothingness.

[So the Fragments of [■■■■■■■■■] has finally found a worthy inheritor huh]

The second fragment muttered. However, Simon had no mind to pay attention to its rambling right because he knew that his outcome would not be any different than Godwin's.

[There is no way in hell that is your end]

Just as that voice fell, Simon's mind banked out and he found himself in an endless white space with no end or beginning in sight.

This place was the mysterious space where he met the second fragment and his other self.

Simon observed the insufferably arrogant guy in front of him and spoke "We meet again".

Unlike the last time when he was in his human appearance and his other self in demonic, this time the both of them were in their actual demonic appearances.

That being said, there was still no comparison between the two. Simon's other self still had that otherworldly awe-inspiring and domineering aura that he could not even begin to compare with.

Whether it be charisma, disposition, natural bearing and although he hated to admit it, the other party's looks were also far greater than his own.

'Why is that guy more handsome even though we are the same person?' Simon wondered in his head.

"We meet again?!! Ah, you might be talking about that guy. That cocky narcissistic bastard who thinks he is better than everyone. Isn't he just too much? Anyways, that is not important right now. I see that you are in a pinch. Hey, do you want to live or not?" The other's Simon tone suddenly turned serious from wacky.

Simon nodded his head, his expression grave. Truth be told, he was really in an unprecedented pinch where he did not know what he should do to save himself. He had already seen what happened of Godwin after he fell into the River of Destiny, he didn't want to add into to the list.

There were still so many things he had to do, dreams that remained unfulfilled and promises that needed to be kept. He cannot die here in some unfathomable River of Destiny.

"Good, it appears that we are on the same page. Then listen to me, the Second Fragment has already exhausted its Primordial Energy unlocking the second [Authority] for you. It can no longer communicate with you for a while].

[If you want to live then listen to me very carefully. No skill or magic you have can do anything about the Fateweaver's Energy of the River of Destiny. Not even some Laws can temper with the Fateweaver's force. Only a higher energy that can sever the cause and effects of the River of Destiny, can save you right now].

[Remember well, the second [Authority] of the Fragments of Pride, [[Stellar Eclipse]]. This [Authority] can manipulate the primordial energy of the universe. It allows the Second Fragment of Pride to twist the very fabric of causality and effects. [[Stellar Eclipse]] severs the traditional bonds between cause and effect, granting the user the extraordinary ability to manifest the inconceivable as if it were an inherent truth].

[With this authority, any exclusive power, divine essence, or esoteric force can be negated without perturbing the delicate balance of the cosmos. Remember, your current level and strength are insufficient to use the [Authorities] of the Fragments of Pride. To use it you will need to..." n-)0Ve1b1n

The dream ended after a while and Simon was back in front of the River of Destiny.
