Village Head's Debauchery
Chapter 855: Aegis of the Arctic Deity's Sealed Memories (17)Their surroundings seemed to slow to a grinding halt, with only Anilius's moving at blinding speed. He brought down the scythe with a terrifying surge of destruction aimed at Naka, but just as it was about to hit, Naka shockingly moved out of harm's way. The destructive surge barely grazed him, creating an immense trench beneath the earth below.
"I've been watching you all. I've studied your fighting styles, the laws you've mastered, your strengths - everything I need to know to neutralize you as a threat. So, the moment you approached me, I already knew the outcome of this battle," Naka responded, his expression hidden behind his veil.
"Impossible!" declared Anilius.
"No, it's not impossible. I forgot to explain one aspect of my ability to see the future. I perceive the threads of probability that weave through every action you take. Time, like all things, is subject to probability. I could delve into the technical know-how and explain everything, but I doubt you'd understand. So, I'll just show you," Naka responded. "Secular Loop," he uttered.
Suddenly, Anilius's movements began to falter. Distorted versions of himself appeared, and he entered into a loop, repeating the same actions endlessly.
"You've... You've trapped me! How?" Anilius exclaimed.

I merely created a dam in this river, disrupting your own technique, thereby granting me the chance to tweak it a little to my liking," Naka responded, materializing before Anilius.
Hearing Naka's words, Oberon's eyes widened in shock, fear, and amazement. He knew that Naka was extremely powerful; however, he couldn't help but feel his body shudder when he realized the depths of his capabilities.
Nonetheless, this confirmed his thoughts that Naka was truly a human whose powers had ascended to that of a manmade god, as only a descendant of the Omnithriallians could awaken such a frightening ability.
Above, Orion and Aerialia also experienced the same emotions as Oberon.
After confirming that Naka had become a manmade god through unknown means, Orion felt that Naka's abilities might just be an enhanced version of the Village Chieftess's gift, which granted her the ability to see into the future since he seemed to do so effortlessly. However, witnessing that he was wrong, as Naka's gift was even more extreme than he had thought, he couldn't help but gulp down unintentionally.
Such a gift, even in the hands of a fool, was enough to make an exceptionally frightening foe. However, in the hands of a fearsome mind like Naka's, it might as well be the same as granting a 'bomb-bomb fruit' from a certain show he remembered back in his previous world to the hands of a suicide bomber.
Even if there was still a limitation like all gifts, when facing a being like that, only a fool would boldly say he was an easy opponent.
Now he understood why the battle between the Eight Greed Gods and Naka had ended in a draw and why they had decided to attack the races and alliances under Naka; he had spared them, and they decided to take their anger and shame out on those they could easily defeat below him.
"He used his technique over the laws against him! How is that possible?" Aerialia asked, snapping her gaze towards Aegis of the Arctic Deity.
"I don't know. If I did, it would mean I might have a chance of standing against him, and I wouldn't be in the situation I am today, right?"Aegis of the Arctic Deity responded, shifting his attention back to Aerialia.
Aerialia's body shook slightly as she focused on the unfolding scene.
The remaining Eight Greed Gods stood motionless, their eyes wide with disbelief at the scene before them.
"Though I would love to continue our battle so you could test my abilities for yourself, the longer this drags on, the more the Seven Great Gods will think I can take on all of you. You don't have to worry; I'll make the outcome of this battle morebelievable,"Naka said, "Divine Apex - Quantum Conflux!"
A resounding "BANG!" followed by a bright flash of light erupted through the space. Instantly, the Mirror realm shattered, revealing Naka, Oberon, and two other Greed Gods - Anilius and Margona - as they plummeted from the sky and crashed into the earth below, creating an immense crater and scattering dust.

They couldn't comprehend what had just happened! They all understood that Naka had defeated them without lifting a finger to attack! It was an utterly inconceivable feat!
They vanished instantly, reappearing beside the immense craters and rescuing the three fallen Greed Gods before swiftly departing.
"Naka, you'll regret this!"Klephiria, the goddess of eternal storm's voice, thundered through the air as she followed the rest, leaving the area in haste.
The scene shifted once more. While Oberon recovered within three days of Naka's bizarre attack, Anilius, the god of ruin, and Margona, the goddess of Malovence and witches, took a whole week to regain their strength.
During this time, their territories remained vulnerable, allowing the Seven Great Gods to reclaim them under humanity's dominion. Their children were thrust into forced servitude, amplifying the Eight Greed Gods' anxieties about their own safety. This led to a stealthy war against the Eight Greed Gods, causing humanity to gradually regain control of their lost lands.
Also, news of Naka's battle with the Eight Greed Gods spread like wildfire, eroding their authority and alliances.
From Oberon's perspective, the tension in the air was perceptible, akin to a ticking time bomb waiting to detonate -. When it finally did, it unfolded just as they had anticipated.
The Seven Great Gods stood as guardians at every corner of humanity, leaving no room for error, which made the Eight Greed Gods direct their focus towards Naka's paradise. In a majority vote of seven to one, with only Oberon dissenting - a decision they attributed to his sentimental ties to paradise - they promptly launched an assault, decimating a tenth of the races within its bounds.
