Chapter 665 665: Clarity
?
In the last message that the Goddess of Reincarnation left the members of the God Council, she informed them about this.
In fact, before she even left her castle l, she had already activated it. It took some time for their formation to activate, which was why she gave it her all to hold him back, giving everyone a chance to evacuate, while taking the battle elsewhere to make sure Ezekiel couldn't sense it.
Before Gabriel arrived, almost everyone had already left the Realm of God. There was no one who knew where they went. But one thing was certain. Other than Gabriel, no one else was left behind.
There was no way to chase after the gods. But more than that, he was curious about Ezekiel. Just where did that guy disappear?
Instead of futile attempts of chasing someone inside the spatial tunnel, he waited at the entrance. There were lots of thoughts in his mind, but so far, he hadn't had time to address them at all.
With his gaze resting on the portal, he stood silently, lost in some unclear thought. Just a short time ago, he was in the higher realm, simply trying to kill the Goddess of Light.
Yet, things somehow evolved in such a way that he was caught in a turbulent flow, and now he was standing in the Realm of Gods, all alone.
He rubbed his forehead. He came here because of Caen, but he failed to even catch a glimpse of that guy.
After a long time, he shook his head. So many things were happening around him that he had lost clarity. He himself didn't know just where he stood.
He had lost everything. He had failed to catch Caen, and he was caught in someone else's revenge who had disappeared, leaving him behind.
As he remained deeply immersed in thoughts, he didn't forget the subtle pain he felt in his chest.
He placed his hand on his chest, but he couldn't feel his heartbeat either. He didn't even think that he was a human anymore.
He was something that he himself failed to understand. Something different than a human or a god. Something that had become an existence that shouldn't have existed. Something that he became because of Caen.
He was only trying to stop the god of flames to save people in the Higher realm when these gods came down, and attacked him.
His thoughts that were initially focused on clarity, soon shifted to anger as he thought about the incident which led to this. His life, and everything had been filled with turmoils.
He only wanted to have a world where he could live in peace and not be hunted down, and here he stood, at the peak of the universe, yet he felt that he was back at the starting point.
He was once again the existence that he was back when he had first awakened his element. An existence that wasn't considered a human. An existence that people wanted to kill even when he had nothing to do with them.
"The only change comes from absolute power," he muttered, with his hand on his chest.
He looked around. This was the epicenter of the world. This was the realm of gods where the strongest beings in the world were said to live. To change the world, he had to first make the world fear him.
That's what he tried back in his world, and he had almost succeeded, but there was only one flaw. His strength was enough for his world, but in the large scale of things, he wasn't strong. That's why he had lost everything.
He came to a conclusion. There was only one answer to his problem. And it was the answer that he had known long ago. This world wasn't for the nice people.
To make a life where he could have peace, he had to become the person that made people tremble with just his name alone. He had to become something like... Chaos.
He had to make everyone submit to him, and never even think about taking anything from him ever again!
Finally, some clarity appeared in his eyes. His goal was the Throne! The Throne that made everyone submit to him! The throne of the strongest being in the world, and he was willing to kill anyone for that!
In any case, he didn't have anything left to lose anymore! From here on, he had already lost everything he could lose, other than his own life.
He looked over at the realm of gods. Instead of destroying this place, he was going to make it his own! Caen took his home from him, and he was taking his home!
In the distance, the formation slowly started dispersing. The portal also closed on its own, disappearing from existence altogether.
The Gods had escaped, but for Gabriel, this wasn't the end. If anything, this was just the beginning.

Unaware of what had happened to his home, the Guardian and the strongest god in the realm of Gods, Janus was flying through the abyss.
There was a thin layer of barrier that surrounded him. It was as if despite being in the Abyss, he was in an entirely different space. This was the ability which made him mostly immune to the poison of the Abyss.
He flew through the endless Abyss, which spread so far that it was impossible to completely explore, no matter how much time one spent.
Janus had been traversing the Abyss, as if he was looking for something. However, other than him, only one person knew what he was looking for, and it was the Goddess of Reincarnation.
As he soared through the darkness, a faint glimmer caught his attention in the distance. Curiosity piqued, he quickened his pace and headed towards the source of the light.
As Janus drew closer, he finally noticed the strange source of light in this endless darkness.
It was a small, radiant crystal floating in mid-air, enveloped in a soft, ethereal glow. The crystal seemed to pulse with an otherworldly energy, beckoning Janus to approach closer.
