Multiverse Conquest: Rise of the Saiyan Empire - Chapter 239: Fourth Knight, Knight of Nightmare

There was a faint smile on his lips.

The Doubled voice resounded on his head.

“I’ve been watching you for hundred of thousands of years. And I never saw you so happily accept a defeat.”

Guts titled his head:

“Maybe…I, too, had changed.”

“Like Griffith with the Behelith.”

Marek responded calmly:

“What is it that you want to do?”

Guts sighed deeply:

“This is as far as I could go, with my own means.”

In this path…He had forgone everything he could forgo. Destroyed every relationship he once had.

And only focused on his goal.

He had once again…Lived a life of misery. A life of loneliness.

And a life of desolation.

But even then…He didn’t find it unappealing.

This the result of his struggle.

What could be made possible by his never-ending fights.

He could lament it. But he couldn’t possibly hate it.

Nevertheless;

“This isn’t what I wanted.”

A Sigh resounded in the air.

“It seems I have won after all…”

The Emperor clinked his fingers…..

And Guts once again opened his eyes only this time…

He could perceive the Emperor in front of him, it seemed that not even a second had passed.

“Was it all…An Illusion…?”

Marek titled his head:

“No…This was reality.”

“Every time…”

“And…”

“…All of the realities you built on your own.”

“Born from this endless struggle…”

As he heard these words Guts Stood up, endless power growing in his body!!

As he felt the weight of all realities converging into one. Fusing to create an incredibly powerful being.

It’s aura!!

Growing exponentially as its dimensionality began to transcend time and space!!

Finally reaching an unheard-of threshold.

Yes…Indeed.

All the realities of Infinite Izanami were realities.

Parallel Realites.

Infiinite Izanami unlike the Original, uses the casted on. Own will to affect causality and spawn new realities repeatedly.

Until the will of the person runs out.

And the more the casted on resist, the higher the rewards would get as he accumulated endless power through the dimensions.

As all the realities disappear leaving only…Guts himself as a symbol of their existence.

Normally it would be outrageous…For a normal person to resist the elopement of simply 10 lifetimes.

After all, each Izanami World is constructed as the harshest trial for one’s will.

As one’s will can be eroded in an exponential way.

But is Guts a man with normal will?

Hundreds of Thousands of years worth of lives. Hundred Thousands of Realities converging into one.

Made the Magical Aura merge with Gut’s Owns!!

As his power skyrocketed!!

Easily suppressing the whole Berserk World!!

Merely at it’s birth.

Finally…..This power grew and grew until it enveloped the moon, the stars, reaching out to the edge of the Galaxies!!

But it didn’t end there as it seemed to be catching out with the shadows of the expanding Universe!!!

The Power grew at this level.

This is the power born out of his endless struggle, of his endless pain, of his endless longing for a better life and better tomorrow.

This power is his and his alone.

The Power of Struggle. The Power of Rage. And The Power of Berserk!!!

Seem to be cemented in an malaxations of Laws and Dao, fused into his sword, into his armor and into his being.

In an extremely powerful foundation. And giving him endless powers.

Guts looked at his current power….

“This…”

Marek smiled lightly:

“Be proud. This is what you amassed through the Incomplete Multiverse created by Infinite Izanami.”

“You are only powered by this Multiverse your created. This is your due diligence.”

Guts heard his words and titled his head.

Was he stupid?

How could even this Multiverse be created without the Impulse of the Emperor?

Guts felt this power roaring through his bones!

But weirdly, he also felt that this power was extremely familiar even more than his own limbs, like it was made for him!!

A Dark Bloody aura grew from Guts!!

Turning into a Giant Rabid and Atrocious Rabid Dog!!*

The Beast Darkness inside him not only didn’t fade away!!

But Became a Cosmic beast far beyond it’s original purpose.

It’s Bloodlust Permeating the world!!

It’s Darkness Englobing existence!!

The Domineering power threatened to even gnaw at his sanity!

This Darkness that he was the most afraid of! Was laid here before himself.

Guts immediately looked up at the presence by his side.

But the frightened and disgusted expression he thought he would find, was only met with a bright and joyous smile.

The Emperor was looking at the Monstrous Beast of Darkness, with deep fondness…

He then extended his hand.

Faintly a hand also touched the ferocious beast of the Apocalypse.

Guts…Felt the powerful hand on his shoulder:

“I believe, now you have the power to not compromise anything.”

“Guts.”

The youth only looked up with a shocked expression, he looked up at the man in daze….

Before he sighed and finally acknowledged the words:

“Yes, your majesty.”

Guts wasn’t a man of much words. And the Emperor knew it too.

The two could communicate their meanings with just short sentences.

Neverthless…There were some things that had to be said. He knelt on the ground, solemnly:

“Your Majesty. I, Guts, shall follow you and put my sword at your service from now on.”

Marek looked at Guts…In his eyes, there wasn’t the willingness to be an equal like in Griffith case.

No…In this case…There was only gratitude, for changing his life. Loyalty for a higher figure.

This wasn’t something Griffith could ever inspire in Guts.

Simply…Because the Emperor is a broader being than Grifith himself.

The Emperor laughed out:

“I will allow you to fix your problems here once more.”

“I will also allow you to pursue the Sword as you always desired.”

“This is your path and I will not allow you to abandon it.”

Guts eyes were wide with surprise….

‘The Sword?’

For how long? For how long was he fighting….In a path of revenge and destruction

He even forgot that somehow at a point in time, he found a path he genuinely loved…

Guts eyes were filled with a hint of nostalgia before acknowledging:

“I will do my best, your majesty.”

Marek nodded:

“From now on…You are my Fourth Imperial Knight.”

“Guts, The Knight of Nightmare.”

Guts nodded:

“Yes, your majesty!”

He then opened a portal:

“Here, come visit the Empire. When you have the time.”

“Also…”

The Emperor touched his forehead. Suddenly, the Dark Knight saw the advent of a Large and Mysterious building.

“This is the Imperial Library.”

“Use it to become stronger.”

Guts was a little overwhelmed by it’s beauty.

“There is Three Other Imperial Knights in the Imperial Palace.”

“Try to make friends with them.”

He said jokingly.

Guts sighed:

“I will try.”

Of course, Marek knew how difficult it would be for him. But he didn’t mind. Guts would open his heart to the rest of the Empire, when the time would be right.

His loyalty is the most important.

He stepped in the portal

“I will be waiting for you.”

Guts responded with a rare smile:

“I will be answering your call, your majesty.”

And as Marek disappeared. Guts expression was still calm, he activated, his perception, in his consciousness all the Apsotles and Monsters in the World.

He sighed as he clenched the Dragon Slayer, but at the corner of his mouth, a maddened smile, was brewing:

“It’s time for a new round of killing.”
