Chapter 502 - My Lord, I beg you
A portal split open, a man stepped out of it with a regality that clung to him like clothes.
Time immediately halted all over the universe.
Noah was finally back to the Primus Universe. And soon enough, his wives followed out of the portal, standing beside him in a wide circle.
Their crimson-gold hair and matching clothes made them a sight to behold even in a paused universe.
The first thing Noah did was to close his eyes, and inhale deeply the air of the universe. It was strange, at least to him, after being inside the Spirit World for so long.
The air was less dense, the power pressing down on him constantly less visible but still present enough for the current Noah to feel it.
But that was not the only thing he was feeling, though. At his Duke of Cloud rank same level as Primordial - the Prince was able to feel almost the entirety of the whole universe.
He could feel the danger it was going through, and the breach he had created before dying still not completely closed.
'Intruders. Noah mused, eyes still closed, 'Many intruders in this universe. What are the Primordials doing?"
If he could sense it, it meant they also could to some extent. Yet they were doing nothing but protect the part where those intruders were infesting like bacteria in an open wound - the part where only cannon fodder was - while ignoring the real threatening ones.
He tilted his head lightly, pondering a bit, while consciously aware that the whole Universe was in a standstill because of his presence. "You have sent it quite far." Aphasia whispered, looking in a certain
direction.
The direction of Laeh.
Solaris frowned a bit at that, "And that part is breached too. However, strangely, I do not feel any kind of hostility from those out of the
breach."
"True." Noah nodded, "Dreamspawn." He easily deduced, "It seems my daughter has something more than I predicted."
"Are you happy about it?" Selene inquired, a pleased smile on her face after being cracked so hard, "I can already feel it from here. It smells like trouble."
"That's her path." Noah's shrug was loose, "I will not spoon feed her all her existence. She doesn't need it. None of my children do."
His lips pulled into a smile,
"And can you not feel Premier?" His voice was thick with pride, "The Seed of Mercy I gave him sprouted in a way I never thought."
"Two of your children, growing in a way you never imagined." Diatah commented on the side, "I am curious, how does it feel?"
Christelle was behind her, smiling strangely.
"How?" Noah finally opened his eyes, looking at her. He then bared his teeth in a grin, "Strangely good. It would feel incomplete if I chose their own path from the beginning to the end. Their stories...would have felt bland."
"In the same way regarding you, too, my lovely wives." He swept his eyes around them, "You have made choices I accepted without question because they're your own path." He looked at Apollonia, "And you are about to make one that I will accept."
Here, his eyes settled on Red.
"Tell me, my Paragon of War, what do you wish?"
"The Progenitor of Dragons." Red's answer was immediate, "Right now,
husband. I want her life now. My daughter has been killed, everything of her destroyed..."
She bit her lips, her red eyes glowing with concerning wrath and pain, "I can no longer wait."
"Then you shall not." Noah said.
He clicked his finger, and Tiamat with Ouroboros coiled around her neck appeared in front of them.
Red snapped her head towards her, ready to slaughter the granddaughter of the killer of her own daughter.
And she would have done it her sisters helping her wholeheartedly
- if not for Noah.
"I will indulge my wife's pain." Noah said, a faint yet humorless smile
on his face, "Esmeray will die. What do you have to say about it?"
Noah had made a deal with Tiamat. A deal of giving her children, if she accepted to bind herself to him.
That deal had been crucial, for it helped him gain LOGOS Time blessing, something that he was actually using to still the whole
universe.
Only those at his level and more unique beings were spared. Yet none were dumb enough to come directly to him at that point.
Noah felt like laughing. To think he had attained the highest level of the universe already. The journey till now had been hectic, somehow,
yet enjoyable.
'But a journey without destination is a headless endeavor. My
destination...where is my destination?"
It was supposed to be perfection, but now, after the talk with Light, Noah found it lacking. Still, that was a discussion for another time. For
now...
"Even if I wish to stop you." Tiamat said, "I won't be able to do so."
She halted briefly, then followed, "However, I will fight you with all I
can to stop you."
"Even if you know you will die?"
"Yes. I have nothing much to lose."
"You have the opportunity to stand beside us," Maryam chipped in,
arching her eyebrow, "The only thing you need to do is discard your
grandmother."
Tiamat chuckled harshly, "Will you discard your son, Paragon of Authority, even if he had done the most atrocious things?"
The Dragon Princess didn't wait for an answer, "No, you won't. So why do you expect me to do so? Do you, maybe, hold the monopoly
of love and loyalty?"
"So you will die for her?" Red now spoke, her face gurgling, spluttering, blood flowing down continuously.
"That's just perfect." She continued, standing an inch from Tiamat, "I
will need a gift for her when I will see her. Do you mind giving me
some ideas?"
The whole body of Rea was now made of blood, the scent of death and horror and dread and sorrow so thick around her the atmosphere
seemed to weep with her every breath.
She leaned her face over Tiamat's right ear, "I am listening."
Tiamat answered with silence. She turned her head enough to see
Noah standing there, expression utterly indifferent, arms crossed on
his chest.
Diatah was at his side. Her cold, alien-like eyes looking at her with something akin to soft interest. But nothing more.
"Your word." Tiamat said, voice still calm despite knowing her ultimate
fate and the one of her whole faction.
She knew, with chilling certainty, that the Noah in front of her had no equal in the whole universe.
"They have birthed a monster. Curse you, Luelle!
"Will you keep your word towards me, just like I kept mine?" She
asked, "Allow me to bear children with your bloodline before dying.
That's all I ask from you."
"Even now?" Noah suppressed a chuckle, "Even when you know
what's going to happen?"
"Especially now, my Lord." Tiamat said with respect, "My grandmother
killed one of your own, it's only right for you to take revenge. And
because you are stronger, you shall win, and kill her. I know. It's a fact. I have accepted it. But because of that, I wish even more for your children, for I want them to always be in a position where they could end a whole race if they did them wrong."
For the first time, Tiamat smiled. She bowed respectfully, acknowledging the power of the man in front of her, "Allow me that, my Lord, then kill me with my soul nothing but memories you will keep for yourself. I beg you."
Silence followed the words of Tiamat; one soon broken by Red's
monstrous voice.
"As you wish." Red answered herself, then pushed her hand deep
inside Tiamat's chest; the tearing sound of flesh and bones erupting chillingly, "But you don't need your heart to live."
She grasped her heart, snatched it away from her chest. Her action caused flesh, bones and blood to spray the air in a gory manner. Tiamat groaned, mind suddenly dizzy, face pale as she knelt on the ground, her chest a gaping hole devoid of a heart.
She was vomiting blood, her body trembling like a leaf caught in wind.
Red ignored the woman kneeling in front of her. She looked at the strange pulsing organ in her grasp; it was not shaped and colored like any normal heart.
She slowly turned her head toward her husband and then,
"Let's begin, now, husband. I have the gift. Now we can visit without
looking inconsiderate."
She smiled harrowingly.
Noah looked at her intensely, then...
"Who told me to be such a good husband?" He said lightly, "Come,
darling, let's begin the retribution."
He clapped his hands, Tiamat disappeared towards The Tree of Ashes
realm. Then another clap, and the Vaelgrim's Family directly went to
the Dragon's Faction. -End of Chapter 502-
