Supreme Harem God System

Chapter 2185: Have you... foreseen meeting me?

[L-Lady Seraphielle! Something happened!

A-Aurendor has disappeared!!]

Lord Light’s voice was heard, and in an instant, an overbearing, deafening silence fell over Irethol.

Because Seraphielle had acted quickly and suppressed Irethol’s rumbling the instant it began, half of the Thal’rens did not even realize something had happened. After all, most of them were too overwhelmed by the strong emotions they were feeling just now.

Some of them saw the people they cherished come back to life, while others literally came back to life—they obviously weren’t in the correct mental state to sense a little shaking, especially when it barely lasted a second before being suppressed.

And since no one other than Seraphielle could hear Lord Light’s voice, they were completely out of the loop regarding the Aurendor matter.

But even then—

The moment Lord Light said what he said—

Silence.

Absolute silence fell all over Irethol.

Not because people here heard him, but because... Seraphielle herself was affected by the news.

She...

She was fooled.

Her assumption—it was all wrong.

All this...

It wasn’t done to ’test’ her strength or to see how strong she was—

It was done to lure her out.

So while she was out here, talking to air, thinking the enemy was listening—he was already moving according to his plan and attacked his next target—just like he had done before—always a step ahead.

Yes.

The Infinity of Light, one of the strongest beings in the entire Universe, was fooled by a being no one had even heard of just a few centuries ago.

The bait the Four Infinities had set up for the Anomaly in order to catch him—it was now gone.

The Anomaly... took the bait away, and they... got nothing in return.

And the worst part?

All the responsibility for losing the bait would now fall upon her.

Seraphielle could already imagine the other three using this to their advantage in the future.

When she realized all that, the Infinity of Light stared in a random direction in silence. Even now, there was no change in her expression. Yes, the air around her had turned heavier, even making the rest of the living nervous.

But she wasn’t the one responsible for it.

That was merely her surroundings reacting to the news she had received.

Seraphielle herself still kept her divine image and—

[Lady Seraphielle! What do we do now!? If the rest of the Infinities find out that the bait is lost, they would...]

"What has happened already hap—"

She answered—or tried to, in her low, serene voice, wanting to calm the panicking Lord Light, but just then—

"Hmm? Things seem relatively calmer here."

A voice was heard.

For the first time in the last few minutes, someone other than the Infinity of Light had spoken—something none of the living could believe.

In a single motion, everyone turned towards the one who spoke—

The Fallen’s Leader—Farah Light.

Or at least... that was what other people thought—Seraphielle, however, was different. She could see the look in Farah’s golden eyes—those dead, emotionless eyes that only followed ’his’ words had disappeared and were now replaced by ones that were filled with... amusement.

Those eyes... did not belong to a puppet raised to follow orders.

Those eyes were someone else’s.

The owner of these puppets was here.

Yes, the Anomaly was here, and he was now directly talking to the Light Infinity.

Seraphielle’s eyes flickered, showing a rare reaction. Of course, to others there was absolutely no change in her eyes, but if Lord Light saw it, he would instantly realize that Seraphielle... she was... looking forward to it.

"Possessing a doll as vile as this... that is quite low, even for a group like the Chain Breakers."

She commented, looking into Farah’s eyes, and while others frowned at her words, Farah just chuckled softly—

"Is that something you should be saying?"

Farah asked. He didn’t seem particularly bothered by the way Seraphielle was talking to him, almost as if... he was already expecting to be ’caught’ and only came here to have a conversation.

"I did not possess him."

Seraphielle answered without blinking.

"I did not think that one who represents Light would lie.

You sure are full of surprises, Seraphielle Light."

Seraphielle paused.

This...

She couldn’t even recall when was the last time someone called her by her full name in such... disrespectful manner.

Of course, she did not let those emotions show on her face, but the Anomaly—he simply did not care.

He just continued with his own words—

"You possessed a dying body just to talk to me, and now that I am here, you are silent.

Would I be right to assume that you are too shy to speak to me? Are you perhaps blushing?"

"Wha— What...?"

For the first time in a long, long, long while, Seraphielle’s face actually showed a true reaction—a reaction that not just Lord Light, who knew her well, but anyone else could see and understand as well.

Surprise, shock—this man...

Did he... truly say what he just said?

"Oooh? That look.

Was I right?"

Farah grinned.

The rest of the living who heard those words couldn’t believe their eyes.

This...

This was Seraphielle Light, the strongest woman in the entire Universe!

What in the hell was wrong with that man!?

Did he lose his mind from fear!?

Did he get possessed by some foolish, fearless ghost!?

Just... what was happening...?

Soon, however, Seraphielle’s face returned to normal, no longer entertaining the Anomaly’s antics.

"You certainly have a way with your words."

She commented calmly.

"I get that a lot. They say I can charm anyone if I—"

"Few could rival your talent for being insufferable."

Before Nux could finish, Seraphielle completed his sentence, and for a moment, even he turned silent.

Soon, however, he came up with an answer—

"I get that a lot too.

But most of the time, the people who say that to me—especially women—end up falling in lo—"

"Why are you here, Anomaly?"

Seraphielle asked directly, without letting Nux finish, and the rest finally understood what was happening.

Farah... was not Farah...

The Anomaly had possessed his body—something they, especially the Light Borns, could never even think of because the Light Borns’ bodies were made by Lady Seraphielle herself.

Even the beings with the strongest possession abilities—Eternal Level Beings—failed to possess the body of even a Primordial Level Light Born, simply because the Aura of the Light Infinity protected anyone from possessing what was hers.

This was the reason the Light Borns never even considered this possibility, but now...

Now that Lady Seraphielle herself had mentioned it—they had no choice but to change their thoughts.

"Is it to gloat about your victory?"

The Light Infinity questioned. Again, there was no change in her expression, almost as if her ’defeat’ did not make any difference to her.

She didn’t even bother defending herself by saying things like how luring her out was cowardly and how the Anomaly feared facing her directly and was using such shallow tricks.

"Gloat? What’s there to gloat? I merely executed what I had already foreseen. There was no other way this would have played out."

And Nux didn’t back down either. Since they were playing like this, he went all out, acting as boastful as he could.

Seraphielle raised her eyebrow at his words, her divine face expressing her amusement.

"Lofty words for a ghost who lacks the courage to stand in his own light and is relying on puppets instead.

Tell me, Anomaly, will you ever be brave enough to truly stand and say all this in front of me?

Have you... foreseen meeting me?"

She asked, as if trying to provoke a reaction out of Nux.

But...

Even if she was a trillions-of-years-old monster, this wasn’t the game she could win.

"I have."

Nux answered, his grin widening even further.

"Though what I have foreseen... I would not like it—well, to be fair, you would absolutely love it since I am quite confident in my skills—but yes, the current you will not find that picture very pleasing—I highly doubt it."

Seraphielle narrowed her eyes at those words. Even she did not know what this man was talking about, and she did not bother lowering herself to his level to ask him to explain.

"I look forward to the day you gather enough courage to stand next to me. You will certainly be... entertaining, to say the least."

She spoke calmly.

"Oh, you will enjoy me, that’s fo—"

Nux wanted to answer, but just then—

The Infinity of Light turned her head slightly, as if she was no longer interested in holding a conversation, and—

SFWWOOOOSH

A silent wave of bright light spread outward.

The Light Borns’ halos reignited.

The Thal’rens felt their hearts fill with warmth and reverence.

Even the Fallen—still frozen in divine restraint—quivered as their forms began to... distort.

Yes, they were dying.

And this time...

They would not return.

Their very existence was being destroyed—they were being... erased, from every single level possible.

Be it this Universe or some other, their connection with it was erased too.

Yes, even their connection with Nux’s Universe was gone.

This was true, absolute death.

No reincarnation, no resurrection, nothing.

And finally, Seraphielle looked at the Anomaly one last time and—

"The puppets you have created are vile and displeasing.

I’ll be cleansing them."
