Chapter 607 - The Overgod (II)
Less than a second after the Overgod emerged, an older man bathed in a golden aura made of killing intent and force that embodied universal truth materialized by Ivar's side.
The Magic World's Leader knew that the Flawless was incredibly strong for a Rank 8 life form, but he could at most defeat a newly advanced Eternal Detachment existence.
Even after completing the evolution of his Omega Law and Inner Universe, there Overgod was someone Ivar could not face alone. The Gods' Path of Power may be weak, but the woman was a Primarch, and she could crush with her bare hands someone at the first stage of Rank 9.
Ivar focused on the Overgod, and everything else vanished from his sight. His killing intent and aura grew stronger with each passing second. It was like the woman was the only thing that mattered to him, and there was nothing that would satiate his heart other than see her dead.
Despite that hostile gaze, the Overgod's face showed nothing. It was like she would stand above everything, like a true God.
However, the Overgod's aloofness quivered for an instant when her eyes posed in the Astral Chaos Force cocoon and felt the power coming from the cracks. It happened so fast, and she covered it so well that not even Issac managed to perceive it.
The woman's eyes returned to Issac and Ivar the next second. As for the other Magi, they were not even worthy of her gaze.
"Overgod, the God Primarch, greets you." By presenting herself and mentioning her title, the Overgod showed respect to the Magi.
Regardless of their personal feelings, entities above the Prima Universe's laws would normally show respect to each other. That is especially true if you deal with someone so exalted as a Primarch.
Issac was about to comply with the custom when he felt the burning desire to slaughter emanating from the man by his side. In the end, he only released a small sight and chose to remain silent.
As for Ivar, it seemed that he did not even hear the Overgod's words and kept looking at her with unrestrained hatred and killing intent.
How the duo treated their esteemed leader infuriated the other Gods in the void. For them, the Overgod was the peak of perfection, the holiest and sacred entity in the entire Prima Universe. The Magi not kneeling was already bad, but the fact they chose to disregard her courtesy was an unforgivable sin.
Yet, the Overgod acted as if it did not matter. Her distant eyes focused on Ivar before she started to speak with a soothing voice.
"I must say, you are indeed an incredible being. Your talent is so immense that your momentum keeps increasing even as you advance into the Eternal Detachment Rank. The Prima Universe will earn a new Primarch in the next million years.'
Anyone another Rank 8 life form hearing the Overgod's praising them would feel a deep sense of pride surging in their hearts, but Ivar's response was disgust.
Once again, the Overgod showed nothing to the flagrant insult coming from the Flawless and carried on.
"Nevertheless, despite all your talent and power, you will never succeed. The Divinity World and the Gods' Path of Power will never vanish from the Prima Universe."
There was no haughtiness in the Overgod's voice as she said that. It was as if her words were an unshakable rule of the universe that no one could change.
"Such an arrogance for a slave of the laws." Those were the first words Ivar ever spoke to the Overgod, both in this life and the previous one.
And the effect it had on the Gods, including Tyr and Satan, was as expected. Outrage invaded them when they heard the way Ivar referred to the Overgod.
While most life forms at the Law Realm do use that derogatory term when they refer to the Gods, none would do it in the presence of the Overgod. Still, Ivar felt nothing but repugnance when he saw her, so how could he show the woman any ounce of respect?
One would think those words would touch the Overgod's bottom line, but again, she showed no emotion at all.
"It is not arrogance, only reality. No matter how many Void Creators and Beyond the Shackles life forms you kill, or how much of the Magi World's laws and forces penetrate my domains, the Divinity World's foundation will never break as long as I still live and there are enough cattle." The Overgod did not even wait for Ivar's response, and she pointed to Issac.
"He is among the three strongest Primarch, but even if he went all out trying to kill me, I would be fine as long as I remain in my Divine Kingdom. As for the cattle, even if they run low, I could always modify their culture and biology, making the females start breeding at ten years old."
Ivar's face twisted due to the immense anger he was feeling. How could he not know to whom the Overgod referred to as cattle?
"If by some miracle, you were able to push me into a corner and threaten the Divinity World, do you think the other Gods in the Prima Universe would just stand quietly without doing nothing, knowing they are next? Not even the entire Dark Tower Alliance could face the pressure of all Gods working together. Especially with the Eldritch Race and the Alpha Universe at our gates."
Smiles full of arrogance and disdain appeared in the Gods as they looked at Ivar. So what if he was the most incredible talent to have emerged in the last billion years? Not even the Incarnation of Death and Destruction could kill Primarchs in their homeworlds.
Ivar knew that the Overgod's words were correct, and the other Gods like the Olympians would intervene once the Divinity World suffered enough damage. Still, instead of frustration, the only thing that appeared on his face was a smile.
For the second time, the Overgod's aloofness shivered for an instant when she saw the Flawless' smile. She was very old and good at reading people, so she was sure the Magi was not faking it, and he indeed felt no pressure at all for her words.
"?BOOM!"
The woman was about to carry on with her speech when another fissure emerged in the Astral Chaos Force cocoon, and then it exploded.
