Chapter 1936: A Big Reveal.
The god of power sighed and said, "I know I shouldn't be here. But I..."
The Overgod interrupted him, "But what? Tell me, why are you here? What got into your mind to come to the void universe? Are you out of your mind? Have you lost your memories and forgotten the terror of the Supreme? Or have you become bored of life and want to die?"
The Overgod hit him with a lot of questions. It is clear that the two of them know each other. The god of power knows how the overgod came to be, and he knows the duty of the overgod.
The Overgod, on the other hand, knows his true identity and his relationship to the Supreme. But that didn't mean that it would go easy on him. It can't do that even if it wanted to. It is just like it said; it has to do its job.
The Overgod didn't wait for him to answer the questions. It said, "You have brought this upon yourself. I will beat you up and end this farce before it becomes too late for you."
It pointed to the dying world where the god of power is currently and said, "Look at this place. I made this world into this. Its previous owner was a cocky world god. She was just like you. Now look at what has become of her. This is what you will become when I am done with you. But it will be better than what the Supreme will do to you. So prepare yourself."
The God of power finally had the opportunity to speak. He said one thing, "Father is dead." The Overgod was stunned. He said, "What did you say?"
He replied, "I saw it happen myself. The Supreme is no more. So I came for the path of supremacy."
The Overgod was stunned and shocked for a long time. It stood there as if it had lost its life. Then it shook its head and said, "It is impossible. Many entities can die. But the Supreme can't die. You must be mistaken."
"Either that or you're trying to deceive me. But it won't work. Such a silly lie won't work on me. You have to try something more realistic. Try something more believable."
"Go on. I'm waiting. Give it another shot."
The god of power continued, "It has been many Chaos cycles since the Supreme died. It didn't happen silently. Something or someone attacked the Cosmos and almost split it into two. No one has seen him, felt his presence, or perceived his work ever since."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"We have scoured the whole cosmos looking for him and his inheritance. Only places like this still exist. You know why this place still exists even after his death. But you must have seen the signs already."
The Overgod had indeed seen the signs. The most glaring one is the path of demons had been cut off. Any demon that becomes a world ender will lose their mind.
There were other signs, but the Overgod always thought it was the doings of the Supreme. It didn't make sense that the Supreme would cut off the path that leads to his Supreme Law, but he didn't care because it wasn't for him to worry about.
But if the Supreme were dead, it would make sense that no demon can become sane world enders, and no world ender can evolve beyond that. It was absurd to consider that the Supreme is dead, but a lot of things would make sense if the Supreme were dead.
The Overgod looked at the void universe in a new light. It half expected the Supreme to show up and punish it for considering this blasphemy, but nothing happened.
The void universe was still the same as before he began considering that the Supreme was dead. It was still in the later stages of this Chaos cycle.
There was no roar of anger or an attack from above striking it for discussing the death of the Supreme with one of the children of the Supreme. This alone was suspicious.
Eventually the Overgod got back its composure. It said, "Even if you're right and the Supreme is dead, it still doesn't change this situation. You have caused too much chaos in the void universe, so I must destroy you and send you back."
"Besides, your intentions for the path of supremacy would lead to the destruction of the void universe. As the Overgod of this universe, I just can't stand back and watch. Your venture ends here."
It was speaking when it caught sight of the god of the soul. She had showed herself to the overgod. Otherwise it wouldn't be able to see her.
Her presence stunned it again. It mumbled, "So you are also here. It makes a lot of sense. I would have asked what you lot were thinking to tamper with your father's project, but now I know that you are just vultures circling his corpse."
She shook her head. "Don't be like that, overgod. If we don't have the right to the position of Supreme, who does?"
The Overgod remained stubborn. "It doesn't matter. I must do my job."
The god of power suggested, "It is true that you must do your job. You must destroy my world. But can you wait to destroy it later when I am done with it? I promise not to put up a fight. I will even sacrifice every Origin God in my world. What do you think about the death of 4 million Origin gods?"
The Overgod shook its head. "It is tempting, but it is too late for that. I have found your world, so I must get to work destroying it now. If not, I would face a backlash for not doing my duty."
"Your father has already imprisoned me here for so many years. I have learned my lesson and know to be obedient. I don't want to suffer more than the restriction of my freedom and lose more of my free will. I certainly don't want to suffer it for your benefit."
