Chapter 1097 Aftershocks.
The white Ghoul won''t obey the fountain of life since the will of the ne and it are not in sync or harmony. But it won''t attack the fountain of life anymore either. To do so is to harm the will of the ne. So it left to hunt other targets.
The fountain of life expected it to give after acquiring 50% of the Will of the ne. Unlike Rnioz, it doesn''t gain any boost from the title. This is so despite the fact that it is helping the Will of the ne to stabilize Itself and fight against the demon god.
So in a way, the fountain of life is doing the Will of the ne a favor. But in exchange, if the fountain of life dies, then 50% of the Will of the ne will die too. The ne will surely fall to the Will of the demon god then.
"Now where is that troublesome Ragnarok?" It said to itself. "He has been useful so far against the demon god. But it is now time to put an end to him."
The fountain of life is not in league with the demon god. It didn''t seal the ghouls because it is in cahoots with the Vampires. It has always been against the demon god. It even helped the will of the ne and Rinoz fight against the demon god.
Yes, it is an invader, but it has been peaceful all the origin cycles it has stayed in the ne and things would have remained like so if not for the stubbornness Will of the ne. The main cause of its conflict with the ne is because the Will of the ne knew what it was after in the ne so it made Rinoz go after the wood elves and try to kill it.
The fight with Rinoz, Rinoz''s death, and its takeover of the spiritual Will of the ne are just business. It is nothing personal. Now that it has secured itself into the ne, it doesn''t need Ragnarok anymore. It can kill Vampires and others on its own. It doesn''t even have to anymore. The Ghouls will do that for it. Then the Ghouls will disappear once the Vampires are gone. That leaves Ragnarok as thest thorn to remove.
The fountain of life asked in irritation, "Where has that little bug hidden himself?"
Ragnarok has killed Origin gods. The fountain of life has also killed Origin gods. Is not an Origin god just like Ragnarok isn''t an Origin god. But it is assured that it will be able to kill Ragnarok. So it is confidently searching for Ragnarok but the fountain of life couldn''t find him. It caused the fountain of life to be irritated.
It used its divine sense to search the whole ne now but it didn''t get a trace of Ragnarok. Even its true sight that can see through matter can''t find Ragnarok so the fountain of life had to give up. "Whatever. I will kill him when he shows his face."
It couldn''t find Ragnarok so it decided to troublemaker when he shows up. It decided to sleep in the meantime. That''s what entities of its race like doing the most. But it didn''t get to rx before it was attacked by the only force in the ne that would dare to antagonize it.
Two entities approached the fountain of life quietly and with the goal of violence. The Fountain of life wasn''t surprised by their appearance. It would have been surprising had they decided not to take advantage of its weakened state to get rid of it.
It said nonchntly, "So you have shown yourself. I have been expecting you."
The two uninvited guests, onepletely ck and the other invisible, attacked the fountain of life. Their fight ended quickly and the ne returned to silence. This silence is rtive. The ne isn''t being shaken by explosions and earthquakes so it is silent in a way, but the will of the ne has been thrown into Chaos by the after-effects of the fights.
Just as an earthquake has aftershocks, the fight between the fountain of life and Rinoz led torge consequences for the ne. Rinoz died. That is bad news for the ne. Her absence caused the ghouls to resume their wanton rampage on all life in the ne.
The good news is that the ne will soon be rid of vampires. That hasn''tpletely removed the threat of the demon god but that is progress in the right direction. Unfortunately, it is difficult for the inhabitants of the ne to appreciate this fact. In fact, some of them hate the ghouls more than they hate the Vampires.
This is the situation that Ragnarok found when he came out of hiding. His Origin domain was removed so his cocoon was revealed. Then a wed hand broke the red cocoon. The rest of Ragnarok''s body came out from the opening he made.
He was still humanoid but his body expanded as he came out of the cocoon. He has note to y but to fight and to fight at his fullest capacity so he unleashed his unique body ofw right from the start. It caused another eruption to ur from deep within the earth.
This eruption is not as impactful as the previous one. He is not as big as the fountain of life and the earth is already cracked. The earth gave way easily without much resistance so his body continued to grow to his full length without restraint.
He grew to be massive in size. It is as if he is a demon king. He grew to be a kilometer tall so he cast a shadow over entirendscapes. He appears to be a muscr hexapedal creature. His six limbs are thick and end inrge wed paws.
He is sorge that the very earth shook when he rested his weight on it. It is not a pleasant experience for a ne that has been battered and bruised by several explosions, eruptions, and earthquakes.
