778 Chapter 776-Changing In Many Ways.
Austin's POV:
The world seemed to twist around me, a sinking feeling as if the world was destroyed around me. I didn't know why it was happening but I Started to feel all the changes around me, laws of the world that I don't understand twirling around me, the identity that is mine blessing upon me, changing me in ways I can't place my mind on.
The divinity being born from powers I can't keep my eyes on started to fall into me, my mind was being forcefully twisted around and grown from my body. Everything around started to look new at me, and it wasn't just my mind, my body and existence as a whole started to be filled with the divine might of power that even I can't place my mind on.
'A power soft enough to embrace me yet powerful enough to destroy everything around me.'
I thought, feeling this divine might that I haven't ever felt before. I have spent my fair share amount of time with the divine beings yet this divine power empowering me, changing me, is some kind of divine power that I can't even begin to understand in a sense, this divinity of my being superior to all the divinity that I have met around with.
A level of divine power that I could mark upon, it being at a level where I felt that it would take my life away in a second, the power feeling foreign yet familiar to me as it embraced me. The feeling of the blue that fought the corruption, the red of the corruption, the two of it combining inside me.
A hint of a purple power flashing within my body. Even with all the darkness in front of me, something within me deeply stirred, a memory that I had seen a long time ago, a memory I had seen when I had awakened my bloodline for the first time, a scene flashing in front of me, the scene of a man shooting towards the sky.
Tears of blood falling from his eyes as he shot that single arrow, the single arrow that had teared the hinges of reality and had almost ended this world and the reality that I lived in. The scenes flashing before my eyes and for the first time, a different clear scene played in front of me, the man facing the world with that single arrow.
And the mixture of the two, the bow and arrow made from the two goddesses in his hands, but what was different this time was the fact that I could see something more clearly this time. A purple light covering the man as he held the shot, and before I could blink, the light covered over the whole man as he shot that shot, tearing the whole world to death.
The arrow that man had shot now being held with two pieces within their hands, their expressions speakingfor their grief. It was a force that tore through reality itself—a force that could destroy everything in its path. The two Goddesses had stopped its from taking everything down but at a cost, a very dear cost and now it was time for the sins to be paid off. The sky itself seemed to scream in agony as the two Goddesseswent forth, splitting the air, the earth, and even time itself.
The one that looked smaller had tears staining down her face as she extinguished the life of the man that took the shot, a guilt that couldn't be hidden at all.
And with that the scenes went away, my mind now being twsited into focus.
But why? Why me?
As these thoughts raced through my mind, a deeper understanding began to take root. I was no longer just a man grappling with the powers that had been thrust upon me. I was becoming something more—something new. I was evolving. My mind was growing, expanding beyond the limitations I had once known. I could feel the thoughts and emotions of beings far beyond my comprehension, the knowledge of gods and primordial beings flooding into my consciousness. It was as if I had unlocked a door that had been sealed for millennia, and now that door had swung wide open, allowing me access to secrets that no mortal—or even most gods—could ever hope to understand.
The power of seduction. The power of destruction. The power to bend reality to my will.
These thoughts swirled in my mind as I began to truly grasp what was happening. I had always known that power was seductive—that it could corrupt even the most noble of hearts. But this... this was something entirely different. This power wasn't just tempting—it was absolute. It was the power to shape the world as I saw fit, to control the very fabric of existence itself. It was the essence of what it meant to be divine, but it was more than that. It was the power to become something greater than a god—something beyond the petty rivalries and limitations of divinity.
And yet, as intoxicating as that power was, there was a part of me that resisted. A part of me that understood the danger of what I was becoming. Power, after all, was a double-edged sword. It could elevate, but it could also destroy. And if I allowed myself to be consumed by it, I would lose everything that made me who I was.
The faces of my family, my friends, the women who depended on me—all of them flashed before my eyes. I couldn't allow myself to be consumed by this power, no matter how seductive it was.
I had to control it. I had to find balance.
