Chapter 1886 Clash of the Titans [15]

Indeed, his form was that of a child. He looked very similar to the Worldwalker when he was around fourteen. He had the same face, but his hair was brown instead of blonde and he was much taller. Still, he looked like a young child, which made the expression on his face hard to fathom.

That kind of malice, resentment, and envy simply couldn't exist in someone of that age.

But, of course, the Dark God was not fourteen.

Damien felt it as well. When he became closer to the peak, his form changed somewhat. He became the version of himself that he saw. In essence, his mental image of himself became reality.

As Damien was someone who always remained confident in his sense of self, not much changed. Rather than someone in his early thirties, he looked like someone in his mid-twenties. The Dark God clearly experienced something different. Because he was so stuck in the past, because he saw nothing but his brother's traces, his body was reverted to the form he took at that time. He was unable to escape his past both in mind and body. His eyes were black holes, pits of misery that sat front and center on his face. They were signs that he had already lost himself. It was the effect of his decision to sever his Legend and his increasingly prominent envy.

As he became stronger and stronger, he only came to truly understand what the Worldwalker was capable of. He wasn't able to celebrate his own achievements because no matter what he did, his brother had already been there or done it.

His envy never quieted down for a moment. Every cosmos he conquered only gave it more fuel. In the end, he became this kind of being.

Damien knew that he was nothing like the Dark God.

He knew there wasn't really a grand connection between them like there was between him and the Saint Emperor.

Still, he kept trying to make that comparison. Because the Saint Emperor was everything he envisioned a great villain to be, he was trying to find some similar qualities in the Dark God. He was someone who found Nonexistence before Existence and threw his ego into the maws of envy to use it to increase his Existence level. He was someone who devoured everything he abhorred and turned the cosmos into nothing more than a playground. Even his conquest against the True Void was because he sensed the Worldwalker's final traces there. He had caused so much damage to so many cosmos. He had to be an enemy with a complicated story or respectable motives, didn't he?

He had to be someone who was entwined with the True Void on an intrinsic level, someone Damien had no choice but to find understandable. He had to be what a Supreme should be.

But that simply wasn't true.

To accept this fight, Damien had to accept something else first. Sometimes, chaos did take hold. Sometimes, people would do unimaginable things without any sort of reasoning. That was the kind of freedom given to all living beings. They did not exist just to enrich each other's stories. He was not the enemy the Dark God was looking for. He was not the main character in the other person's life. From beginning to end, the Dark God was looking for the Worldwalker. He was not "fated" to be here. He just happened to be the one who had the potential to rise up and stop the Dark God's madness. Perhaps he was not the enemy the Dark God was looking for, but he was the enemy he'd found. And he was not planning to let there be another. The Dark God was furious about his veil being torn off. More than anything else, because Damien was now someone who confirmed his past.

Frankly, that curiosity wasn't his alone.

As Damien listened to the Dark God's thoughts, even he was forced to entertain those thoughts.

The Void Physique chose him at random. He really didn't have anything special to draw it to him other than his origin. That was a fact he believed for a long time, but the origin he thought mattered was Dante.

What if it was something else?

The Void Physique was not just unique in the True Void Universe. There was only a single Void Physique in the entire Void. No matter how many cosmos one traversed, one would never find a second.

A physique with such uniqueness couldn't just pick its hosts at random. There had to be a definite reason for the Void to believe that Damien was the one out of countless contenders who would be able to reach it.

The thoughts of these two beings clashed and came together. As the Void was their spectator on their current battlefield, wondrous things were commonplace.

If they weren't so busy fighting, they would have been able to use the countless phenomena around them to heighten their comprehension and perhaps even fuse their two concepts.

However, they were not able to do so for obvious reasons. They didn't realize how magical the space created by their battle truly was.

The Void was known to answer to those who wielded it. When the desires of two Supremes came together, even it felt an obligation to show them what they wanted to see.

So, it did.

In that moment, it froze their battle and placed them into a scene like that.

A scene that showed them the hidden history of the True Void Universe.
