Odyssey of the Blind God-Chapter 525 Not Human

[When you advanced to the Deux rank, I saw a shred of your memories. That is also how I know that your human parents are not your biological father and mother!]

'Huh?'

Nial was utterly confused when he heard what Damian told him, and he couldn't really fathom how this could be possible.

He was sitting in the middle of the wooden hut with his head in his hands, trying to grasp the situation. However, that was easier said than done. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

It was only fortunate that he was currently alone at home because his father was somewhere else, working hard for himself. That was what Miles wanted, after all!

"You saw my parents? What the hell are you talking about?" Nial didn't understand what Damian wanted to tell him but the Late God of Darkness' explanation didn't make things easy for him either.

[I saw parts of your memories before you came to the City of Trials where you got your hand on my Godly Fragment. The Odyssey seed was this grain-sized Godly Fragment of mine that was safeguarded there until 25 years ago!] Damian explained without saying anything that was of Nial's help.

Nial was becoming increasingly frustrated, especially since his dark energy was trying to pull him inside the portal on the right side ever since it appeared.

"I was a little kid, who couldn't even walk properly 25 years ago. What are you talking about?" Nial retorted, his confusion and anger clearly perceptible.

[The Godly Fragment of mine was safeguarded in the City of Trials and it naturally chose the first compatible living being that entered the City of Trials with a physical body. The Undying, from the prophecy, was also there at that time. In fact, the secondary Godly Mission of the right portal will be held in the City of Trials with the Undying, who has been in the City of Trials for quite a while, completing his preparations to work against the prophecy, or something like that.]

Damian spoke a lot in Nial's mind, much more than the Late God of Darkness had spoken before. He was really talkative, despite Nial not being inside the darkness portal at this moment.

[I cannot speak much longer to you while you're outside our domain. Make a choice and follow your heart instead of letting the dark energy control you. Though, my dark energy was always attracted to those who desired more strength. Following it brought me down on the path of a True Destroyer but it gave me the strength I needed to be one!]

'Thanks…how the hell is that helpful now?!' Nial grumbled inwardly before he entered the black portal on the right side.

The pressure radiating from that portal was much stronger than the other portal and Nial's highest preference was to get stronger and find out more about the past. Adding both points, he was intrigued enough to enter the portal without any hesitation.

After stepping inside the portal, Nial sensed nothing but dark energy. It was the same as it had been the last time when he went inside the portal to undergo his primary godly mission.

That calmed him tremendously as he opened his mouth.

"Can you tell me more about the memory you saw and the things you've seen in my memories?" Nial asked before he switched to a few more detailed questions, "Why was I even in the City of Trials as a baby? There shouldn't have been a reason for me to have been there! And why the hell am I even compatible with your Godly fragment and everyone else's weird ass powers? That doesn't really make sense either, especially since your powers are not exactly known for providing love and life!!"

The last question was related to Nial's high compatibility with the Symbol of Life. There was no reason for the Symbol of Life to have chosen him as the most compatible candidate. At the same time, it made no sense for the Fairy Queen to give him her race's blessing and for Yggdrasil to link to her. All of that was nonsensical since he was labeled a Destroyer by the Elves.

It made lots of sense because he possessed the Power of the being who was considered the God of Darkness and Destruction.

[There is not much to tell you because the memories are pretty blurry, and the memories are not exactly nice. The last memories when you still had your eyes…do you want to see them?] Damian asked, which caused Nial to feel suspicious.

"What do you mean…when I still had my eyes? I still have my eyes, but I can't see anymore. Isn't that a big difference?"

[Do you want to know or not?]

"...Yes!"

Damian didn't even answer Nial's question when the sound of him clearing his throat resounded in Nial's ears.

[The last memories, while you could still see, were that someone was holding you high in the air in front of millions of beings. Everything is blurry but they look like humans or human-like with all kinds of colors mixed in between. You were at an elevated position, presumably on a terrace that was high enough to allow you to look down at the entire city.

Not long after you were held high in the air, death and blood followed. Everyone was lying on the ground, dead, except you. You were picked up by someone who brought you to another small figure that took away your eyesight!]

Damian summarized whatever he had seen in a few sentences. At the end, he added another sentence, but Nial could barely hear it.

[I guess that your eyes were pretty special, unique enough to be spared and for your eyes to be taken away through some ritual. After you lost your eyesight, I could only feel how you were feeling then, and not long after my Godly Fragment was bound to you. That means you were probably teleported to the City of Trials when your entire race was massacred! As for your compatibility, it's probably something about your race, but I can't be certain about it for the time being!]

Nial was at a loss for words. His lips parted and his mouth opened but not a single word escaped it.

Nial was staring silently at the ground, not moving an inch while his mind was rattling wildly.

"Wait a moment…I was not born blind, but something took my eyes, or rather eyesight from me because they were special…and…I'm actually not an origin human?" Nial asked but he didn't need an answer to know that the Late God of Darkness was telling the truth.

Nial's mind was going wild as he was trying to digest this shocking revelation.

"How does that make sense…I look like a perfectly normal human according to what everyone else says, and I have five ability slots just like every other origin human…but I'm not?!"

Too many confusing thoughts churned in Nial's mind but there was no proper answer to all the questions that began to torment him.

"Who the hell am I?!"

"...What am I??"
