<h4>Chapter 611: Selection</h4>
Janus swiftly shifted all the me to the Lord of Space since everyone knew that he was here on earth. It was the easiest way to get the me off himself.
"The same Lord of Space that you failed to find?" The Lord of War asked, ring at Janus. "What cr*p were you doing here when the Lord of Space kidnapped our sons?"
"You know how hard it is to find him? You can’t me me for that," Janus eximed, sighing.
"I checked up on all your sons to make sure that Lord of Space wasn’t in that country before moving on to others. How would I know he would go to themter? In any case, do you have any idea how hard it is to find him?" He further asked, sighing.
...
"Decide... What do you want to happen? Do you want to merge with me, or do you want to be a separate person?" Chaos asked Ryder, wondering what this guy was going to choose.
" Are these two my only choices?" Ryder asked, staring at Chaos.
"What more choices do you want? Tell me. Let’s see if something is possible," Chaos nodded, wondering what Ryder wanted. He knew that he had made it clear to Ryder that he wasn’t getting the body back. What choice did he have now?
Even Ryder lowered his head, lost in a deep thought. His body was going to be taken over by someone else, and he couldn’t do a single thing to retain his body. Apparently it was the only one that Chaos could have.
If his story was to be believed, the body belonged to Chaos since he was the original being, but Ryder couldn’te to terms with it. He had lived his whole life as Ryder. How could he quit now?
Even though he asked for more choice, he knew that the ones that Chaos gave seemed to be the only two that were possible. Either he merges, or he separates.
If he merged, he and Chaos were going to be one. He could gain unlimited powers, but how could they work? Could he still have any individuality left? Or was he just going to be a memory to Chaos?
And what about the other choice? If he separated, what was going to happen? Was his soul going to be sent in someone else’s body? Many questions floated in his head, and all were essential for his future.
"What will happen if I decide not to merge? What if I separate instead?" He asked Chaos.
"I’ll create a new body for you. It won’t be as strong as the current body, but it’ll be more powerful than any human body could ever be. Also, I’ll make sure you carry all the powers that you had previously," Chaos exined.
"Ah? What’s the catch here? That sounds too good to be true. If you could create such a powerful body, then you wouldn’t be trying to take over this body, right?" He asked Chaos, surprised.
A body that had all his previous powers?
"There’s one difference. That body won’t have any Divinity. So it can’t amodate my Divine Soul. Only the real body of mine can amodate my soul," Chaos exined. "You won’t lose anything since you have many choices, but I don’t have those options."
"Will that body look the same as me? What other difference would there be? Will it be a real body?" Ryder asked, just to be sure.
"It’ll be a real body indeed. As real as a human body can be. You wouldn’t even be able to find a single difference, I believe," Chaos exined.
"And what if I merge with you? What will happen then?" Ryder inquired.
"Nothing much will happen in that case either. You and I will be one. Through me, you can live the life of a god. You’ll get my goals, and I’ll get your desires if we merge. It’s like a truebination of two people," Chaos exined.
"Those are your two choices. Time for you to decide," he told Ryder.
"I think I have decided," It was after a long time that Ryder spoke.
Chaos was curious to hear the answer of Ryder.
"As much as I would love to live like a god, I want my old life back. I don’t want eternal life or the Divinity. Just get me back to the way I was. I want to separate from you," he ultimately said.
Hearing his answer, Chaos subtly nodded. "Fine. If that’s what you want, that’s what you’ll get."
"Stay here for a few hours. As soon as Janus returns with the Fragment, we will begin."
After finishing, Chaos disappeared. In the real world, he opened his eyes.
"Hmm? I feel more presence here?"
As soon as Chaos opened his eyes, he was able to feel the presence of more gods. He spread his arms, forming an illusory image of earth to find where these godly auras were present.
"It’sing from where Janus is standing. All seven of them are there? Ah, so it’s them. I guess they’re here for their sons. That’s why it was risky for Janus to take such a risk. I guess it’s time to hunt some more gods," he muttered as he stood up, prepared to fight.
"Hmm? They’re all going in a different direction? So they aren’t fighting?" Just as Chaos was going to disappear, he stopped as he noticed that all gods were going in different directions.
...
"It is much harder to find the Lord of Space alone. Much more than I expected. That’s why I wasn’t able to find him. He probably keeps switching ces whenever someone gets close to him."
"It’s not the work of one person to cover all ces at once. We need more people. With your help, we should be able to cover more ces and entrap him. Only then can we get answers from him about why he did this. What do you all think?"
To get out of your situation without fighting, Janus had shifted all the me to the Lord of Space, and now he was using that to separate all the gods.
"That does make some sense. We sent Janus here. He didn’te here on his own. So the chance of him nning to hurt our sons are too low. Also, he would have killed my son as well if he was the culprit since he met him. I think he’s not lying," One of the seven gods agreed. He was none other than the father of the only god-son that was left alive.
