Will of chaos-Chapter 1645: Cap 1643: Gambling

"I’m done, do it now!" (Tarzor)

"(I hope this is enough to negotiate, that’s all I want.)" (me)

I knew it was wishful thinking that the first solution would actually work, but it didn’t hurt to have hope since the alternative sucked.

"< Reality Desecration: Activate >" (me/Samara/Xagar/Hades)

"< Universal Seal: Chains of the Apocalypse >" (me/Samara/Xagar/Hades)

When I first used this technique, it was more of a test than anything else, I was doing it as I went along since I only had the theory, but after that I started to perfect the process and also understand everything better.

These nests have several layers, the largest of which is the accumulated Anomalous power of hundreds or thousands of Anomalous Dragons, then comes the power of Reality that literally sustains the nests in existence, the last part is the largest being the Auras of all those who built the nest, these Auras become flows throughout the place like the veins carrying blood through a person’s body.

Even though the nest is alive, it is not as if it has a Soul or consciousness, it is actually like a miniature universe or a planet possessing basic instincts similar to a will and acting based on these instincts, in this particular case the nest is easily controlled by the Anomalous Dragons as if it were an extension of them.

My corruption has spread throughout this place, my Divinity is composed of many different aspects, the power of the Apocalypse that comes from the Demons can corrupt everything, with the Anomalous power transforming everything to create something different and the Power of Chaos changing everything again into a new structure.

The Aura flows converge into Aura currents, the power of reality converges into a true Divine Territory or perhaps I should call it Sacred Land since this corruption has engraved myself in this place.

In the end the very basic will of the nest itself is consumed by the will of Tarzor being delivered to it by me serving as an intermediary.

The power of Tarzor rises through my body, the universe trying to resist and even expel Tarzor along with me out, then roots and branches full of crystal leaves appear.

Freya creates roots in the universe preventing Tarzor or I from suffering the repercussions of all this, her roots and branches reaching far beyond just this nest, I help Freya by guiding her roots and branches through my connections with the others to the nests that were also ready to be raptured.

My mind was always dealing with many things at the same time, this was a detailed process and my mind was scattered across multiple nests while there were still Anomalous Dragons attacking me.

That’s when I felt Tarzor make his move, I was linking these nests to Tarzor, even though it was my power that was corrupting and changing the nests, I didn’t have the ability to move them or implement them to me, they would be like any fixed Holy Land where I was.

But for Tarzor it’s different, he can integrate these nests into himself, increase his universe and his power, take this place with him forever and by extension it will be under my control too.

Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to do this with multiple nests at the same time, I needed a physical anchor to do this and I would need a direct link with these nests and Tarzor to do the rest, now with everything ready it’s too late for them to do anything.

I felt like I was being attacked, but I couldn’t see or hear anything, my mind focused entirely on the task at hand, but I knew that Tarzor had started to make his move since I didn’t feel like I was being hit by anything.

I don’t even know how long it lasted, for me it felt like seconds had passed, but it could have been dozens of minutes and believe me, 1 single second makes all the difference in a fight of this level, standing still in the middle of this type of fight for so long made me an easy target to hit and so I had to think of plans to keep myself safe, part of that plan was Tarzor.

--------------------

I don’t even know how much time passed, nor do I know if everything went as well as I imagined, but I don’t think so, I felt that the number of Anomalous Nests did not match the number I sent, 2 of them failed, most likely one of them hit the wrong target going to where the leader of the Anomalous Dragons was, as for the other group, I’m not sure what went wrong.

When I opened my eyes I noticed the hundreds of Anomalous Dragons trapped in crystallized chains hidden in translucent vines, all hanging from branches that stretched throughout this space as if they were fruits.

Just by focusing my attention a little I could feel the Power of these trapped Anomalous Dragons being absorbed by the tree while the chains kept them in a sealed state.

Looking around I could see that all of these Anomalous Dragons were still trying to free themselves. Brutal auras were emanating from all of them and yet they were unable to go more than a few kilometers around them, the space shaking around each of them with the force they exerted to move in their state of containment.

Even so I noticed that the largest number of Anomalous Dragons were dead from where I was, the space around me also seemed weaker, clearly something had happened while I was previously focused.

"How did everything go?" (me)

"Just like you said, they tried to attack you with everything they had." (Tarzor)

"There were many of them and some were stronger than the ones we faced in the other universe, so I had to prioritize those closest and then those strongest, this allowed some that were further away to escape." (Tarzor)

"Freya, how are the other nests?" (me)

"(They’re fine, all except Hades’.)" (Freya)

"What happened?" (me)

"(Same as you, he was alone, so I focused on the ones that posed the greatest risk to him, letting 1/4 of them escape, I’m not as efficient as Tarzor in manipulating such a large space.)" (Freya)

"(Aside from Nix and Karina, the others were successful and no Anomalous Dragon escaped, their nests under our control.)" (Freya)

"How long will it take to get the nests to integrate with Tarzor?" (me)

"(A few hours, this time he can eat them directly, so it becomes easier with me just speeding up the process, most of the time will be spent dragging these nests here.)" (Freya)

"That’s good." (me)

"Now we have some heavy betting power that he can’t ignore." (me)

I was inside the nest when the others arrived, I was in a meditative position inside what looked like a colossal Tree made of energy particles, Tarzor and Freya were already devouring the nests, I was just an energy conduit for them to use, so my mind was very free to pay attention to the others who had just arrived.

Each of them gives me a report of what they found, the first to arrive were Karina who should be the furthest away and followed by Nix who was the second closest to our current location after Hades.

The two tell me about what they found, Karina having the unfortunate luck of finding the enemy leader and being forced to manifest the Stellar path, it seems that I was not very reckless in presenting this escape plan, I was not sure if it would be useful, but it was what saved Karina.

Nyx on the other hand talks about the trap she saw from afar, as a Spiritual Dragon her senses are a bit unique just like Hinata, her perception is deeper even than mine.

As the others arrive and inform me of what they found, I realize that traps were everywhere, they were expecting our attack, this explains how the Anomalous Dragons from the nest I went to attacked so suddenly without revealing themselves or trying to capture me, they attacked very quickly and abruptly, I didn’t understand this before, but now it seems to make sense if they were already expecting an attack.

After receiving the reports, everyone left, leaving only Akatosh and Lolth with me. This plan may have been mine, but those two were still in the lead. I was only responsible for this plan because it was the best we had and because of my unique abilities to implement such a plan.

"How many nests are there left?" (me)

"The last count was 9 nests." (Lolth)

"We captured 4 Nests, that’s not counting the prisoners we captured in the other 2 universes, which could represent another 2 or 3 nests." (Akatosh)

"We have almost half of them, maybe a little less." (me)

"If it were up to me, I would kill them all, but today I was close to their leader, it wasn’t just his Aura that I felt from afar or saw the power of one of his attacks, he was close by and his presence was very strong..." (Lolth)

"I honestly think that he alone could have already led my Universe to destruction, I don’t understand how he refuses to act personally." (Lolth)

"My guess is that he can’t move so easily for some reason, but I’m not sure." (me)

"Now that we have so many cards in hand, we can start our bet in a way that he won’t be able to refuse." (me)

"I thought you wanted to negotiate with him." (Akatosh)

"He’s a Hunter, all Anomalous Dragons are like that and we can attribute the same to him." (me)

"Surprise attacks, traps, cunning tactics and many other things, a meeting with him will be like a gambling game using cards, he will be cheating just like me, but at least we will be at the same table, which is our only chance." (me)

"You are going to trust luck with the fate of my Universe in your hands!?" (Lolth)

"No, I just said it will be like a game of chance, and in this kind of game the house always wins." (me)
