Chapter 767 The Memories Of The Past
-----
Four out of five had been defeated, with one of them having joined Frank and the other three being devoured by him. Frank had attained transcendental levels of power by now, and his soul was evolving constantly by absorbing their powers. The fragments of the original being that made these souls was incredible, a being equal to Overseers themselves. Frank was still processing things as he fought the Vampire God, but after a few more seconds, memories began to quickly rush into his mind as he realized the true identity behind the one that was fragmented into pieces and reincarnated into many figures in various other worlds… Or at least, he was able to connect the faint memories that Chaos, Cronos, and the Vampire God had, all while Arthur also shared his memories with him through Soul Connection to see if Frank could make a sense out of them.
The memories of each individual coupled together, as Frank was suddenly able to see many memories moving forward. He saw a man crossing across a sea of darkness where there were countless of bubbles floating over it. Each bubble contained an immense universe.
This was… the outside of the universe itself, a place called the "Sea of Emptiness". It was an almost endless sea of pure condensed darkness and Empty Essence that held trillions of Universes floating over it. The man that once held the memories of these people as the true origin of their souls traveled through this sea, until he found a specific Universe.
"So this is where you've been hiding, you bastard… I'll just destroy this Universe completely, let's see what face you make!"
The man laughed manically, touching the bubble in front of him. The universe inside this bubble and every life inside suddenly were extinguished, devoured by his ruthless power.
BOOOM!
An enormous explosion of cosmic and universal essence spread out into the Sea of Emptiness, as the man laughed.
"Hahahaha!"
FLASH!
However, from out of nowhere, the Universe suddenly regenerated back, as if time had been turned backwards!
"Eh?!"
And then, the figure of a tired man emerged, a man that Frank recognized well. It was his father. He was wearing white and golden robes and held a long black sword that resembled Gram a lot.
"F-Father?!" Thought Frank, as he looked into the memories.
The man confronting his father was another Overseer, a bastard that had always hated his father from the beginning named Zahrt. Since the beginning that his father was close to him, it could be said that they were even brothers. But his father always showed more talent than his brother Zahrt, and therefore, a deep hate was formed within his heart.
When Zahrt discovered that his brother, Frank's father, suddenly moved out into the Sea of Emptiness and ended losing himself inside a random Universe, where he fell in love with a human woman and had a child, he found it the perfect opportunity to make him suffer.
He attempted to destroy the Universe where Frank was living, but his father rewind time, saving the Universe from staying destroyed, but by doing such a powerful technique, he lost most of his powers as Overseer.
"You bastard, Zahrt… I won't let you have your way!"
And like that, his father and Zahrt fought. Frank finally realized why his father truly left him, it was to fight this horrendous man that wanted to make him suffer. Seeing universes and lives inside as mere little ants he could crush at any given moment. The two fought for many eons, but it seemed like mere seconds to them.
Ultimately, Zahrt got what he deserved, as Frank's father absorbed part of his powers and used them against him, fragmenting his soul into five pieces, but the power of Zahrt was too much, and Zahrt used it to seal Frank's father within a black hole, where his powers were being drained constantly…
"F-Father…!" Frank thought, as he finally learned where his father was located, right outside of this very universe, in a small black hole, he was sealed there!
However, Zahrt, the bastard was still on his way towards his father, as he revived five times in five different bodies. The Emperor, Cronos, Chaos, Arthur, and the Vampire God. Arthur seemed to be the only one that had embraced a new life and wasn't at all like the original Zahrt, while the others were obsessed with power and selfish to no end.
Frank feared sharing this information with Arthur, but ultimately told him about it. Arthur, however, even after seeing the same memories Frank saw, nodded in silence.
"I see, so that was my previous life, huh? Quite an antagonistic man… I am not really sure what to think of this, but don't worry. I am not like that. I believe the reason behind it might be emotions. Zahrt's original soul was fragmented into five, perhaps the soul part that I got from him was the one with the least selfish emotions of the five… Perhaps this is what gave me room to generate my own personality with my own beliefs instead of being drowned into selfishness and the hunger for power." Said Arthur.
"Arthur… I see." Said Frank.
"Then let's go defeat the Emperor and get this done with, Sir Frank!"
FLASH!
From within a portal, all of Frank's clones and his allies entered the room where he was, being led by Miriam who was mounting a giant black demon wolf. She looked like a glorious little goddess, shocking Frank and the rest.
"M-Miriam, is that you?" Asked Gwendolyn.
"Yeah, mama!" Said Miriam, as she called Gwendolyn as her "mama" as she was technically her adoptive mother. "I've convinced the demon, I destroyed the contract binding him to the Emperor, and now he'll help us out!"
? "Alright then… It seems we are all together in here." Said Frank, fusing with his other clones and gaining even more concentrated power… But would this be enough to go against the Emperor who has been absorbing the energies of different worlds from the gates he opened, while also fusing himself with the thousands of soul fragments from the original Beast Goddess?
