Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

2739 Their Rise Tips the Scales! II

As a great battle of wills was about to unfold within the Aspects of the Adjudicator of Dissolution…an even more significant event was occurring elsewhere.

In the domain within the very depths of the Vacuous Hyperversal Legions outside of the Vitalis Domains where multiple Tier 4 Vacuous Extremities and an existence on the Fifth Gradation of Extremity were taking the lead in a lot of the movements currently occurring with the War.

[My Extremity Clone has secured the Extremity Bridge within the Haven of Oceanus. Only the auras of two Tier 4s are worth worrying about and approaching, but I have Diego for support…]

The situation within the Havens their forces had managed to pierce through was relayed at a quick speed as dense waves of information were brought in, analyzed, and processed quickly.

The Entity of the Fifth Gradation of Extremity oversaw all of this with a stern expression as there couldn't be any mistakes.

Since he was taking command at this point in time, he had to perform in a way that the others could not gain any ammunition to speak negatively on the course of this war!

And things were proceeding smoothly.

Exceedingly so at that as all Extremity Bridges were enacted without issues.

All that had to happen now was-

[You dumbfuck, look at that smug expression on your face when everything is about to start going wrong.]

…!

A new voice instantly erupted as from the folds of this domain, space warped while the image of an Entity with a terrifying aura appeared!

Her visage was reality shaking as it was a young woman in a light obsidian battle dress that radiated the aura of a Middle Grade Armament of Extremity.

Her lush hair flowed with black and gold strands of light as her fair skin shone with a lustrous glint. Her face emanated unrealistic beauty as on her forehead, a unique runic ecriture of indeterminate origins was etched.

[You…]

Her appearance caused the aura of the Tier 4 Vacuous Extremities to be reigned in while the Tier 5 Entity had his face become cloudy as he continued.

[Why are you here…and what do you mean?]

The Entity of the Fifth Gradation of Extremity who had been controlling the pace of the battle so far did not like the Entity that had appeared.

There were many reasons, but the first and foremost reason was…her foul mouth.

[Are your ears not fucking working? Everything. Is. About. To. Go. Wrooong.]

She spoke her last six words slowly and in a very demeaning way, the expression on the Tier 5 Entity becoming entirely dark as the Tier 4s acted like they weren't hearing this discussion at all- focusing on their work!

And yet even as his shoulder face became darker, he didn't erupt against this being as he reigned in his anger while asking calmly.

[What exactly did you find now? How will things go wrong when everything is currently flowing so smoothly?]

The newly arriving woman floated towards his shrouded figure with a stoic expression on her face, her nose wrinkling as if she could smell something that caused her great displeasure as even the slightest facial muscles only further expressed her unrealistic beauty.

[While you're already beginning to celebrate, another anomaly with the potential to derail your whole war has risen. His addition tips the scales as he should already start disassembling your moves soon. If he isn't stopped, all I've seen so far is a great deal of True Deaths, and one set back after another that will slowly take you further from your purpose in this war.]

Her words were shocking ones as even the Tier 4s turned grim when they heard them.

Just who could this enemy be? How terrifying was his expertise in the Gradations of Extremity that his addition in the overall picture would tip the scales so much to be capable of beginning to derail the whole war?!

The Entity at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity had his expression become cold as he asked with somberness.

[Who is it? What Gradation are they in? Entities at our stage have not even begun to appear yet.]

Was it one of the prominent Vitalis Malignancies in the past who had veiled themselves in the eons of space and time? Did they already begin to move this early?

But at his question, the woman adorned in a Middle Grade Armament of Extremity shook her head with an annoyed sigh as she replied.

[That's the thing, he isn't even in the Gradations of Extremity yet. If you're too useless to erase him and stop his rise now before he advances into another stage of power…then you deserve the next loss. You can claim the title of Dipshit Infernal Emperor after that.]

…!

[What!]

Her anger inducing words that were stated last were entirely filtered out from his mind as he focused on the first set of words.

The enemy who would derail their plan and begin causing heavy problems in this War…wasn't even on the Gradations of Extremity yet? He hadn't even attained Extremity?

[Don't fucking scream what. Just take care of it, and don't alert the old assholes of Vitalis about him while trying to kill him, otherwise it will become a lot more complicated. Remember, his appearance tips the scales to heavily favor Vitalis- but he is still at a stage where he can be killed. You'll need to move yourself if you want to succeed in eradicating him, and you'll also need someone with access to the Vitalis Annals of Extremity to fully kill him. Do this quietly and quickly, and make sure every move you make counts.]

Her words only became more and more obscene to listen to as their content was utterly maddening.

The target was an existence that hadn't even achieved Extremity…and a Tier 5 had to be deployed?

The Tier 4 Vacuous Extremities had their wills buzzing in alarm as the shrouded face of the Entity at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity only became more and more stern.

[You got it?] And yet, a nonchalant question was the only thing this demoness in front of him asked.

Silence reigned before the rough voice of the Entity rang out.

[Who…or what is he?]

What anomaly was this existence?

At this question, the woman with tendrils of black and gold hair smiled as the darker surroundings brightened up with a show of power and glory.

[An interesting guy seeking to open up a Dead Path, it seems. Even I wasn't able to discern too much after I discovered him through the effects of his actions- but his name is Noah…Noah Osmont.]

WAA!

[I would help you further by telling you where he is, but the effects of his actions are seemingly running across all Vitalis Havens as locking onto his position is hard. Give it your all and find someone else compatible in the Vitalis Annals of Extremity to track him down, otherwise…ah, you already know. Fall from glory, grace, power, and all that bullshit.]

[...]

After she said these words, her figure began to flicker as she was seemingly about to leave just as quickly as she had appeared.

[Wait.]

The Entity called out calmly as this terrifying woman before him tried to leave, his words continuing to ring out.

[Why don't you join me in seeking and eradicating him? With you, the chances of success should be near if not already at 100%. The others haven't even noticed him, but you have. With your aid…]

His words were calm and filled with reason, and yet…

[Give a guy an inch and he takes the whole fucking light year…I've already come here out of my own volition to help you, and you ask me for even more help? The fucking nerve…]

She shook her head with profound annoyance as the shrouded figure of the Entity remained calm, but they pulsed with a trace of anger!

His deep voice once more came out after a moment.

[Why would you not lend aid at such a critical moment? This war is meant to uncover the hidden and cultivated forces of Vitalis as we gain the information needed to finally take steps towards ending eons of fighting. With your authority, finding this Osmont shouldn't be a problem as I do not see a reason for you to not lend me your aid.]

[...]

A deep silence descended.

Her figure that was becoming wrapped in an obsidian spatial light reappeared briefly as her fair face full of shocking beauty was filled with annoyance, her voice echoing out once more.

[A reason? I don't need a reason. I don't care if this war is won or lost. You all can just continue killing each other over and over again and see where it brings you. Vitalis, Vacuous…at the end of the day, it's all bullshit. And most of you idiots will continue to live and die without ever knowing why. Fuck. It angers me just thinking about it. Anyways, good luck, and don't fuck it up.]

WAP!

With such words, this terrifying existence left as a stark silence was all that remained thereafter.

None of them cursed her out nor reacted negatively to what she said as even though her character and demeanor were the worst, she was one of the terrifying tools to arise within the Vacuous Hyperversal Domains in the eons that had passed!

An existence known as the Cimmerian Architect.

An Entity whose name was entrenched not just within the Vacuous Annals of Extremity, but also in the Vitalis Annals of Extremity!

And she brought forth shocking news of a newly rising enemy who would greatly tip the scales of war.

[Noah Osmont.]

The name thundered out from the Entity at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity as his voice continued soon after.

[Find out everything there is to know about him from our contacts within Vitalis.]

As he spoke, his own eyes pulsed with a terrifying light as he thought for a little while before soon after…his will moved to contact someone who would be able to help!

The goal was a simple one.

To balance out the scales of war once again to their favor as for this…Noah Osmont had to die.
