Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

An authority of TABOO was required as wondrously, Noah had such an authority even though he didn't have a TABOO concept!

BZZZZT

Domineering arcs of light bellowed out as the TABOO Relic LETHE finally undulated with less light as Noah's authority bounded out, its glorious visage beginning to flow towards him as his hand beckoned towards it now with the authority of his Black Tier Ascendancy Halos that held the Authority of TABOO!

They were Halos that one could normally only achieve with the Flames of TABOO concepts, and Noah Infused his essence through them to command this Relic before his eyes as it moved behind him and went on to clasp onto his back!

Around this same moment in time.

Within a cluster of innumerable Realities.

The gaze of a LEGEND was a terrifying one to have directed at you, with it being silent most of the time as their concepts of TABOO acted in such a way to not cause a reaction with one's destiny!

This meant that a LEGEND could be tracking down an existence without their knowledge as when they were found and the Visage of a genuine LEGEND crashed down, they wouldn't even know how they died.

The only way to counter such a gaze was with your own protective TABOO concepts and authorities as normally, only LEGENDS could counter LEGENDS.

This was why at this moment, a terrifying will of the Olden Emperor of the Golden Eye had locked on to a particular existence as even though the culprit was masked around the authority of a Disaster Remnant that was naturally hard to grasp due to these beings' history, other lines of destiny were grasped from the Primordial Blacklist as from this- many things could be stipulated!

"Noah Osmont…your will is stipulated across multiple Realities as karma connects you to the Primal Titans. Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy? Rubbish…"

The shocking visage of the Golden Eye couldn't even be seen properly as this existence gazed at multiple golden strings that had begun to feed him information, with him manipulating their Origin as his goal was to eventually find out everything about the existence that had killed his Will Bearers and then locate them!

"Now…where can I find you- oh?"

BZZZT!

Heavy obsidian sparks erupted out as the golden lines that the Olden Emperor was pulling upon shattered and fizzled out.

"..."

Out of nowhere!

Just when the Olden Emperor of the Golden Eye was about to make some headway into the identity and position of an existence that was already hard to track due to unknown factors!

Yet now, everything about him faded as no feedback of information was coming across even though multiple TABOO authorities were active at this moment…but it felt like they were being stopped by an unshakable veil.

BZZZT!

An unshakable veil that even when the authority of the Golden Eye raged out with more intensity, it remained unshaken!

It was the Veil of Lethe.

"Curious…does he have a LEGEND protecting him, or…?"

The will of a terrifying existence was confounded as the Veil of Lethe had passively acted to confound its first target!

A LEGEND had lost a trace at an opportune time that would have caused some troubles to a certain existence unless his destiny had begun to quickly alert him while contending against the authority of TABOO…and such an occurrence had occurred more than once in the past where just as tremendous possible peril was about to descend, it was unconsciously evaded within a difference of seconds or even microseconds.

How could this be explained? Was it purely due to the unconscious augmentation of Destiny altering things naturally and steering events in such a way? Or was it something else entirely?!

<Veil of Lethe> was a passive ability that one received if they equipped LETHE, but it could draw upon Mana and Essence of Reality as required if an inquisitive TABOO authority was geared towards your direction!

HOOONG!

Noah shockingly felt such a pull the moment he utilized the authority of his Black Tier Ascendancy Halos to adorn the obsidian cloak onto his back, thousands of Units of the Essence of Reality instantly beginning to be drained from him along with trillions of Units of Mana.

"Oh?"

His eyes flashed with solemnity as while his body was erupting with untold grandeur due to adorning a TABOO Relic, the feedback from LETHE told him that the passive Veil of Lethe was now actively stopping the piercing gaze of an existence as if Noah didn't coincidentally happen to obtain this Relic and equip it…

"..."

Would a Clone of his have been found? Or would his main body and Infinite Reality be revealed? These questions caused Noah's excitement for the TABOO Relic to take a backseat briefly as he reevaluated everything, with his destiny having affirmed to him that through his TABOO authority of the Black Tier Ascendancy Halos, he would be masked against even Legends so long as he didn't have them heavily focus their attention on him!

This was the only assurance that had allowed him to continue into the Pure Blooded Domains where one might run across a LEGEND.

But it seems like such a LEGEND had actually focused on him as Noah could only think of a single being that was connected to the Will Bearers that he had eradicated! And yet…the Veil of Lethe had cut off anything that this being had attached to as after a few microseconds, the usage of Essence of Reality was stopped as the veil calmed down.

The singular feature of this TABOO Relic had already shown its ridiculous usage as for any worries about Noah becoming entangled in the sights of LEGENDS…they could all be forgotten as the number of things he could mask now were too many!

For an example.

BZZZT!

A hazy dark Veil of authority wrapped around his body as it extended upwards at this time, going on to extend past the solidified crown of the Unnamed Kainos Emperor.

A crown and authority that showed itself clearly at all times as it disdained being hidden!

Noah couldn't change the reality of this solidified crown, but he could set the authority of LETHE to alter the perceptions of others when they stared at him as he commanded the authority of this TABOO Relic to not show what floated above him! That was all.

WAA!

If someone were to be looking at Noah at this moment, they would notice his dazzling solidified crown fading from sight in a wondrous fashion.

A Relic…that was capable of even silently hiding an authority that disdained being hidden!

This wasn't all as LETHE wasn't just a TABOO Relic.

It was also a Limit Breaking Tool!

Ten Malleable Ascendancy Halos came with this Relic as they were multicolored when the cloak was unequipped, but the moment Noah adorned it…

SHIING!

They turned a dangerous shade of black as horrifically, Noah's body erupted with an even more domineering authority as 20 Black Tier Ascendancy Halos began to undulate around him!

"..."

10 were blank and without any Flames of Edicts as 600 concepts had to be conjured up and placed within to fully complement its authority.

But the sheer possibility of this affirmed that on this day, Noah had broken past the limitation of the number of Ascendancy Halos that a Seventh Firmament existence could have as from 10, he currently wielded 20!

And all this…was just a single aspect of the TABOO Relic LETHE as more than all of this, there was the <Shield of Oblivion> that if Noah cast while fused with just 10 of his Ascendancy Halos with the true form of a Samsara Cosmic Dao Origin, he could achieve 75,000 True Reality Defense Values from this shield alone without even placing any other modifiers in the picture!

And he…had many modifiers to think about as the actual True value was unknown due to the fact that he now held an additional 10 Black Tier Ascendancy Halos.

This was only half of what LETHE could do as apart from all this, there were still four features another hadn't even delved into yet!

<Author's Note>

Rendition of Noah powering up with the concept of Reality Passages!
