Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

2540 A Glorious Apex Battlefield! V

"Still nothing from him?"

In the northern region past the Apex Battlefield, the figure of Erikson's Aped Aeonic Soul Clone could be seen on a throne atop a golden stellar vessel in the form of a leaf as the changes from him over the last hours were utterly drastic.

"No, Master Erikson. His other bodies are still floating before the Wall of Dissolution in the depths of the Extremity Vein."

Behind him, a reply came from a Sima Clan Scion as another resonant voice came beside Erikson soon after.

"There's still time before the Apex War. He'll likely arrive with a bang. He just seems like that sort of being."

The voice stemmed from Atlas of the Plum Sword of Extremity as besides Erikson's throne, the figures of many prominent Scions who had participated in the Initiation Step could be seen on their own thrones!

Erikson had invited their Apex Aeonic Soul Clones over as apart from Atlas, even the visage of Lodovico and Ayame could be seen among others!

Only their Apex Aeonic Soul Clones were here as their Main Bodies had already met up with their core forces that entered the Haven of Dissolution- each of them receiving the resources of their Inheritances on top of what they gained in the Initiation Step of Extremity Sanctification to rapidly stabilize their power as Apex Aeonic Lifeforms and elevate their Boundaries past the 10th Layer.

Those from truly powerful Inheritances or those part of the Seven Clans were gaining even more boons as they basked in the aura of their Hyperversal Extremities, being given unique resources to aid them in forging their Dynamis of Extremity.

The Wall of Dissolution did not crumble down as the Extremity Vein rose ever so slowly even now, the Culmination Step not yet unfolding as a decent number of the myriad factions came to the periphery of the Apex Battlefield to watch.

Some Inheritances considered it beneath them as their forces already entered the Extremity Vein of Dissolution and stood before the massive wall that stopped all others!

But the mere presence of renowned names from factions like the Sima Clan, Infinite Extremity, and Plum Sword of Extremity being here observing caused a few more eyes to be drawn over.

On the golden leaf shaped vessel Erikson and others sat on, the visage of Ayame that had been quiet this whole time had her eyes flash with brilliance as she voiced out.

"It seems the suspense and questions are about to come to an end."

…!

The moment her words finished, on the side shining under the banner of [LERNAEAN], space fluctuated as a majestic aura blazed forth!

The Wills of many watching eyes were roused as they focused on the Apex Battlefield.

There, with all of his glory, the single figure of Noah's Main Body appeared as fantastically, those watching truly affirmed he had yet to advance as an Apex Aeonic Lifeform!

His exceedingly handsome face was apparent to all as he was adorned in a light blue Emperor's Robe, seeming like he was going on a simple stroll as he gazed into the Battlefield ahead of him that instantly blazed with a terrifying intent for battle the moment he had appeared.

At the center of this Battlefield, the figure of Commander Vladic rose from the Legions below as after seeing Noah, his figure became surrounded by a brilliant light as he bellowed out!

"Osmont!"

WAA!

The being who had crushed Euryale's soul right before him.

He actually showed up as Vladic almost wanted to tear the veil stopping the two sides from beginning battle right away!

Yet the being he considered his life and death enemy barely spared him a glance before shaking his head.

What Commander Vladic didn't know was that Noah had already read of his death from [Adumbrative Viewpoint] as he was already considered a dead man walking!

His figure instead floated ever closer to the thin transparent wall that distinguished between the two sides, the figures of the Shadow Elders and Roan who had already been on this Battlefield coming up towards him as Roan's voice was the first to emanate out.

"This is the precipice you have brought our Lernaean Lineage to after taking the seat of Emperor? Complete Annihilation by-"

"Shut up."

WAA!

Before Roan's words finished, Noah's regal voice thundered out as he stopped while his facial muscles twisted in anger!

Among the Primeval Shadow Elders coming by, the figure of Silas could be seen as he had returned from the Haven of Penumbra to take the lead for the forces of the Cult of Endless Shadows aiding Noah.

Depending on how events unfolded in the next few moments, he would be given a command by the Hyperversal Extremities of the Cult of Endless Shadows watching in a hidden space on whether to increase the forces of the Cult of Endless Shadows and bring Legions of them into the Battlefield!

So he didn't stay anything at this moment as he watched Noah's figure ignore everyone else on this side and float right at the transparent veil separating the two forces.

He gazed at the sea of Legions before him that would have frightened any common Apex Aeonic Lifeforms, and yet his eyes held no fear as he turned his head to the Legions led by Elders of the Singularity Overseers and Genesis Institute of Extremity!

He even gazed in the far distance where the figure of a being surrounded by a palpating crimson aura of Destruction could be seen surrounded by extremely powerful Apex Aeonic Lifeforms.

He looked at all of them as under the banner of many eyes, his resonant voice rang out!

"Before this Apex War begins, I will give an opportunity for all those who do not have life and death conflict with me to leave."

…!

His words were a surprise to many as Noah's gaze was directed to the forces of Genesis Institute of Extremity and Singularity Overseers who were supporting the side of the Noblesse!

Before any insignificant reactions began, he continued.

"Because for those who do remain in this Apex War of Annihilation…they shall be branded as enemies that cannot exist under the same Haven!"

WAA!

"This doesn't just include those who are present here…but the armies of Inheritances they represent. Any single Existence affiliated with an Inheritance on this Battlefield- your presence here means that your entire Inheritance is declaring War on me and my livelihood!"

BOOM!

Shocking words that caused many auras to burst with grandiosity boomed out, the eyes of many Apex Aeonic Lifeforms constricting as an immense silence descended only to be broken down by the True Emperor of Quintessence once more, his cerulean Emperor's Robes making him seem like a celestial Emperor advising the masses.

"The armies of the Genesis Institute of Extremity, the Singularity Overseers, and even the veiled Scions of the Avernus Clan thinking they can hide themselves."

…!

His eyes landed on every force he was talking about until they ultimately locked upon Ahpuch and his people as their eyes blazed with brilliance at being called out like this!

Noah had long since found out their affiliation from the Mutated Entities he killed in the Extremity Vein as well as his probing with [Adumbrative Viewpoint].

But his words caused waves as some beings gazed shockingly towards the visage of Ahpuch and others.

"The Avernus Clan is involved in this?"

"Is this appropriate…"

Many minds began to buzz as the face of Noah didn't pay attention to them.

He gazed at the Legions before him and continued as behind him…a spatial light began to shine as it seemed like his armies were being called forth!

"If a single one of your forces remains on this Battlefield when the Apex War starts, then I will take it as a proclamation of war on my and my whole Lineage. It means that the Genesis Institute of Extremity, the Singularity Overseers, and the Avernus Clan are declaring war on me and becoming deadly enemies. It means that after this war…I will not cease until these two Inheritances and Clan are deconstructed to the last being remaining!"

…!

"....!"

BOOM!
