Chapter 2144: No Turning Back
Precisely because he could not do nothing to that boy, his killing intent rises and in that one split moment he really wanted to ignore it all
He wanted to just descend down from his throne and goes to the mortal world and step into the Supremacy Stairway and do something
Anything.
Whether it be hindering that boy, aiding him, saving him, or even killing him.
Anything is better than nothing.
But even after all of that thought, Vritra did not rise from his place and he did not cut out portals and go do anything to that child
Not because he didn’t want to but to his utter dismay he found out that he could not do anything to that boy
Now, with the sudden changes in the Omniverse, some things might be awakened. Some things in people hearts and people mind.
And once such thought begins to spread, then they would all die to the people
Vritra is an Asura. And he is usually drinking
However, Vritra today is not drinking. He did not have any mood to drink
Any mood he has already has been tempered when he saw the River Keeper in that future.
It did not mean that the River Keeper would be in the future of that child. It just means right now; the future is unknowable.
Is destiny and fate could not eb aligned? Or did the River Keeper guard the future of that mortal so one could do certain things?
River keeper instruction and desire probably differs from all other beings and he would act depending on this desire of his
Vritra sighed
He is the High King of Asura. He likes fighting and he likes bloodshed.
So whose side he is on? The Destroyer?
If that were the case why he is still watching?
But the more he watches the heavier his eyelids is and as he tries to open his eyes and look further, the heavier his eyelids become and then he felt something sharp attack his vision and he could only sighed
"it is quite different than the last time" before there is loophole in the defence of the golden barrier.
today, however, there is no place in the Omniverse that is safer than that place today. He could see it and he could see through the loophole because he like the Jade Emperor also walk that stairway.
Vritra…he does not know what to choose now. His mind is always chaotic. His base is the Asura race
But if one think that the Asura race are a chaotic race then one misunderstand this race very much.
The young ones are rash and hot blooded. But those who reached Vritra realm can control their thoughts. Yes, those beings who is on the same realm as his all gave only one desire and that is to restrain their own feelings
Vritra has many personas of himself.
And he has many names. In some world people called him Vritra and in some others people called him differently.
Depending on the times and the culture of that planet, he plays different role. Sometimes, he is the villain. Sometimes, he is the hero.
Depending on the circumstances, Vritra sometimes take upon the form of the serpent. Sometimes, he takes the form of a virtuous gods
His name sometimes could be Wrtra. Sometimes, it’s Vrtaghna. His powers are usually associated with water.
Vritra is what Jormugandr is to the Asgard, the Typhon to Olympus. His most famous enemies is Indra.
And Indra like him also has many personas.
Vritra did not want the child to live.
But now….regardless of his feelings, there are some things he had been made aware of. He is thinking of what to do.
The matter is now uncertain and after knowing some things, he is now wavering in his conviction
he had found out that it might be the One and Only intention that allows Heaven to complete that time magic allowing things to revert to the past.
That memory of that other deleted timeline was blurry. And Vritra has many other things to worry about and these memories did not seem particularly important to him
And he himself felt like there is a seal on that memory and knowing himself, he would not seal a memory unless there is a reason for it. so, he let that memories of his sealed inside his mind
But then that child break through to Sovereign realm.
It is fine if he break through Sovereign realm.
Even if that child break through to Sovereign realm, it would be just him following his old trajectory of life.
It might be faster than before, but it is still something that was destined for him
There would not have been any problem with that kind of thing
But this child instead of breaking through like normal, instead decided to form the primordial body. Isn’t this just recreating the Etherna body. That is touching the most tabooed existence in the Omniverse
And because of that decision the Omniverse shakes and ripples and all of those unsealed memories are now revealed to him and once he knows, he could not go back and then after he compares the memories of the other timeline and the current timeline, Vritra felt fear.
This is too different. A difference here and there does not deviate the main line of fate and destiny.
Fate and destiny allow some adjustment and some minor discrepancies. Fate and destiny are rigid but when are challenged and fought against and those who fought against them gain some leeway, they do accept some modification as long as the big picture is not compromised
But this time, destiny and fate could no longer bring the story to the original one.
Vritra sighed. This is not something I wanted to do, he thought to himself.
It would be better if he did not know it. he would not be worried right now and he did not have to be implicated in this cause and effect
He sighed
At the same time in Olympus, Zeus opens his eyes.
He is now in the mortal world.
He was disguising himself as moral again and was sleeping
And then even as he was cosplaying as a normal mortal, the resonance and the vibration of the Omniverse was so strong that it broke through the seal he put on himself and suddenly he went unconscious.
Yes, the King of Olympus went unconscious.
Even if he was in a mortal body, that should not happen. And what is being shut down is not his mortal body but his Olympian mind
In other words, Zeus was truly unconscious.
And now he opens his eyes and his face suddenly become solemn
And he frowns and there is anger, there is also a kind of fear seeping into his heart.
All of the plans of wanting to gallivanting around the mortal world is now forgotten
He went out of the tavern and then to the shock of everyone, the cloud turns dark and then Zeus jump up and turns into a lightning bolt and pierce through the dark clouds and the moment he is no longer on the mortal world, the dark clouds dissipated.
The mortal seeing this all could not help but feel fear and prostrate themselves seeing such a miraculous scene
But right now, Zeus has no mood of gauging the reaction of these mortals or revel in their awe.
Instead, he went back to his Palace.
Because this is the only place he could gather his mind. Right now, there is all this kind of feeling in his heart.
And the skies all over the galactic system that the Olympus controls, all of it reacts to him
The Olympus galactic system is huge.
There is many planets inside this galactic system. It is so big that many of these planets that is actually under the Olympus rule did not know that they are in fact is ruled by Olympians and Olympus themselves.
Olympians did not show themselves unless the living beings in that place reaches a certain level of civilization.
It would be like trying to communicate with ants.
It would be pointless.
Right now, all of the skies in the system is now suffering from storms and turbulence.
The wind seems to be going crazy, there is heavy rain falling all over the planets, there is thunder and lightning….everything indicate that things are going to be stormy
And that is the current feeling of Zeus.
He felt like there is a storm in his heart and this feeling is now affecting the entire galactic system
And the moment he arrives at his palace, there is this boundless frustration welling up in his heart but he did not know where to release it
What happened to Zeus?
What happened to him is the same thing that happened to Vritra
The only difference was Vritra did not have the same kind of feeling Zeus does. Because unlike Vritra. Zeus truly did not want to get into this matter.
What happened? Zeus memories, all of the sealed memories is unsealed. That is what happens to him.
And once he knows, there is no turning back.
