Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Zatiel was not surprised by that last piece of information. The Incarnation of Death and Destruction pushed the phrase cruel to your enemies and even crueler to yourself to a whole new level. It fitted someone with that personality to make those born of his ego kill each other.

The Incarnation of Death and Destruction clearly did not care about the families and friends that Zatiel and the Flame Imperator could form.

Zatiel might still have that level of cruelty if he did not meet all those people who showed him love and care during his third life.

"Then, what now?" Zatiel's eyes grew cold as he stared at the Flame Imperator. Since they were born of the same Primordial Essence and will, they could achieve a perfect fusion, but that meant one ego would override the other.

When it comes to cultivation, the Flame Imperator will gain nothing from devouring the Zatiel's existence. Still, the Alpha-Omega Samsara King Bloodline and True Name were forces that did not fall beneath True Rank 10 Cores of Existence.

The Neo-Demon Ancestor did not believe that they did not tempt the Alpha Universe Leader.

The Flame Imperator saw the coldness in Zatiel's eyes, but that did not affect his genuine smile.

"First of all, let me say that the Incarnation of Death and Destruction goal and desires are no longer of concern to me, but Endless Darkness is a threat to the multiverse.

I have finished with Endless Darkness' Will Core of Existence and even took care of the Energy Core of Existence. Although I ended the last one for my own benefit, it still counts.

You took care of the Soul Core of Existence, and I can no longer perceive the presence of the Body Core of Existence, so that one is no longer of concern.

And finally, our friend, the King in Yellow, took care of the Omega Law Core of Existence, and he and his entire universe are doomed to oblivion.

Therefore, we could finally say to have gotten rid of Endless Darkness..." The Flame Imperator made a small pause at this moment, and a somber expression replaced his smile.

"Or at least that is what I would like to say."

Zatiel frowned, and the same solemn expression appeared on his face. He did not like to praise his enemies, but he had to admit that the Flame Imperator was an incredible powerhouse.

As an entity at the Fourth Realm, the Flame Imperator had the power to bend reality to his will and travel in the Emptiness without fear. So, for something to generate dread in him, it must definitely be a threat that could obliterate a super universe.

"Our original understanding of Endless Darkness came from the memories the Incarnation of Death and Destruction stole from the Soul Core of Existence, but those only go back to the events that took place inside the Eight Epoch Prima Universe.

After devouring the Will Core of Existence, I got access to Endless Darkness' complete memories." The Flame Imperator's expression grew even more solemn, and it was clear that what he had learned was not something good.

Those words affected Zatiel, generating an invisible pressure on him. However, other than that, they also filled him with doubt.

Endless Darkness's origin, background, the one responsible for his wounds, and how he found the Prima Universe?

Those were all questions that Zatiel had but did not think he would ever get an answer to. Yet, he now had the chance to solve all of them.

The Flame Imperator clearly knew the question in Zatiel's mind since they were the same as his before overcoming Endless Darkness' Will Core of Existence.

However, this time the Alpha Universe Leader did not satiate Zatiel's curiosity but instead began to speak of something else.

"I triggered the war between our respective homes because I need a universe that can endure my strength and allow me to develop it to an even higher stage.

We will fight for our respective universe's Wills and law matrix supremacy. If I win, I will also devour your existence, which will be enough for me to handle the future threat.

And if you win, you will devour me and learn all my memories, including those concerning Endless Darkness.

Therefore I will not share anything else now since it would be pointless to do it."

The Flame Imperator spoke about their battle to death with complete calm. It wasn't clear whether he was confident in his victory or something else.

Zatiel stared at the Flame Imperator for a moment before nodding. His enemy's words made sense. What would be the point of him learning more about Endless Darkness if he was not alive after the war?

"I guess we will settle everything in the Alpha-Prima Universe."

"Hahaha, I guess you and I still share the same bad taste in names." The Flame Imperator laughed as soon as he heard the name Zatiel gave to the new universe that would come from the fusion between the Alpha Universe and Prima Universe.

Zatiel almost smiled as he heard that small joke when all of a sudden, it happened.

Rex Pravita Samsara Universalis Causalitax, Zatiel's True Name, trembled and unleashed a wave that made him feel like he was electrocuted.

As Zatiel felt his entire existence shaking, a feeling of absolute doom assaulted his heart, and for a small moment that lasted less than a blink of an eye, everything around him changed.

The smiling Flame Imperator vanished. Instead, this one's hand pierced his skull and unleashed a force that made Zatiel feel his entire existence morphed.

That scene vanished immediately, and Zatiel found himself sitting at that table completely unharmed, but he understood everything.

'An illusion!' Zatiel was currently in an illusion, and the scene he saw a moment ago was reality.

"So you found out. A Fourth Realm True Name is truly annoying. I barely touched it and reacted so fiercely."

Despite Zatiel's not saying a word, the Flame Imperator knew his illusion had finally failed, but the smile on his face grew larger as if everything was under control.
