Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

As Aldrich was faced with four beings in the same realm as him, he actually weighed his options as he came to the truth that he had more than a 60% chance of winning if he actually faced all these beings at once.

But he really did not like this percentage, as it involved something that was extremely important to him! It was his life's work, and he did not wish to risk it for a 60% chance!

It was the reason why he initiated the Last War, with the prize actually being nearly within his grasp as when he achieved it, he would have a 100% assurance of winning against any beings in the Novus Galaxy, no matter what power they held.

He was so close, that it seemed just a few days or weeks was all he needed!

Even as he stared at the anomaly that he rushed over here to nip in the bud, the being he considered a puppet in a true sense as he observed how so many natural laws were bent to allow him to actually rapidly advance in the law of fate- this being was the biggest consideration at this moment as he weighed the possibilities.

To solve this problem and not allow this being to gain any more power, he arrived to save the last Star Forging Celestial Commanders, and now his hands were moving with brilliant light that covered the remaining hundreds of thousands of Celestials, their bodies beginning to disappear from the battlefield!

He would not give this creature any more fuel to increase his strength, knowing that he needed very little time to achieve his goal of 100% in the Law of Fate. When that time came, it would not matter what puppet She was trying to raise, nor which beings stood in his way.

Aldrich's apathetic eyes looked towards one of the only beings he considered a brother as all the Celestials around the Verittas Fortress began to be teleported away.

Before he carried out his plans, before he…

Well, before he did what he needed to do, he wanted to look at the face of his brothers and tell them how wrong they were, how things could have gone much differently! But this only seemed like a pipe dream as his eyes only showed apathy, his gaze moving from Fritz and towards the 9th Infernal Lord who was surrounded by three Nebula Realm creatures.

At this moment, he was actually very angry! Can you imagine putting in enormous hard work over more than a thousand years, striving to slowly comprehend a Supreme Law? Then one day, you watch as someone makes more progress in this law in a matter of minutes than you did in hundreds of years!

It was stifling, wrath-inducing, and just showed the unfairness of it all!

"You just wait for me, Puppet. This will not go on for much longer."

His words carried enormous wrath and foreboding as they thundered towards Noah, the eyes of the Founder landing on Fritz one last time before his body began to be covered with brilliant particles of light that then disappeared!

Aldrich, the Star Forging expert he came to save, and all the remaining hundreds of thousands of Celestials...all disappeared!

RUMBLE!

Noah continued to stare at this scene as he canceled his Aether Star Form, his mountainous body beginning to reduce in size as crackles of Aether spread out.

His eyes went towards the Stat Panel that had the number 9,139,376 next to his number of Fate Lines as he calmed his mind from the euphoria of power and the recent events of the battle.

He was very close! So close that he felt it was all within his grasp, but Aldrich had seen something and appeared to prevent him just before he could achieve it!

"Noah...bring me over there for a bit."

At this time, he received a telepathic message from a being far away from this battle- he received word from Old Man Inuit who was in the past Ancient Blood World that was integrated into the Infinite Realm and also currently watching the scenes of the battle.

Noah's essence connected to his Infinite Realm with the words of Inuit as he stared at the being called Fritz who still floated in the void of space and looked towards the position where Aldrich had disappeared.

RUMBLE!

Waves of essence fluctuated out a second later as Noah teleported Old Man Inuit over, the aged being giving Noah a nod of thankfulness as he then floated towards a lost brother of his with a shaking heart!

"Fritz…!"

Old Man Inuit called out to this being that had just resurfaced for the first time in hundreds of years, his gaze melancholic as Fritz turned towards him with a sorrowful expression.

When these two beings looked at each other, a myriad of emotions sprung out, but the strongest one was the shame and helplessness that Fritz was releasing as he could barely meet the eyes of Old Man Inuit!

This was because he knew his brother had been confined by Aldrich this entire time, and he had not moved anytime during the last hundreds of years to save him.

He knew it was helpless and could never succeed escaping from Aldrich in one piece if he tried, so he went roaming around for answers that he never received, and now here he was hundreds of years later!

It was an emotional scene with two old friends meeting, and Noah turned his eyes away from this as he looked at the three Infernal Lords that had arrived just in time.

"I had considered the possibility of Aldrich moving if ever he saw something about you, never did I think he would be so bold though."

The sonorous voice of the 1st Infernal Lord rang out as she turned towards him with a smile.

Noah looked towards her and to the battlefield that only had the shocked forces of the defenders of Verittas Fortress remaining, glancing towards his own subordinates that were looking around in dissatisfaction for having their battles cut short.

He looked at a disgruntled Emperor Penguin who was facing a Special Existence like the Three-Eyed Fate Child blow to blow before he was teleported away, to the forces of Vampyres that had the curvaceous Elena who was glancing towards him with a dangerous reverent expression.

He glanced at his second clone that was standing beside a bloodstained Athena, the being that was effectively the only remaining Celestial on this battlefield. He looked at all of these scenes and reflected over the past events as he heard the sweet voice of the 1st Infernal Lord ring out once more!

"It seems that a conclusion of this Last War is coming faster than many of us expected~"

"..."

…!

Silence overtook the surroundings and the 1st Infernal Lord casually voiced out a shocking reality, the far-reaching effects of this last battle at the Verittas Fortress only beginning to unravel at this moment!
