Odyssey of the Blind God - Chapter 754: Fated Fight (1/10)
Space around Nial began to twist and heavy pressure weighed down on him.
His connection to the Army of Devils was cut off all of a sudden and he found himself in a completely different place.
He had been in the midst of space before, just to end up touching the soft ground of semi-solid clouds. It was a truly confusing sensation.
‘I cannot use my dark energy here!’ Nial noticed with furrowed eyebrows.
He tried to coat his body in reinforced dark energy but he couldn’t even feel the dark energy at this moment. His Mana Perception and Mana Sense didn’t work either.
Only his other senses seemed to be working.
‘What is this place? Why does it feel familiar?’
Nial’s mana perception might not work but the sensation he got from this place was weird.
“This space feels like an inferior version of the pressure Hoert released. It is somewhat superior to the Veiluris and Veils though…” Nial mumbled to himself, tilting his head in confusion.
Did the Advocate separate him from the battlefield? Did he fall into the Advocate of the Pryard’s trap…again?
Nial figured that the Advocate of the Pryard wanted to weaken him as much as possible before their final fight would begin. Thus, the Advocate created a space where one couldn’t sense, or use mana, and the energies created by it.
Unable to use reinforced dark energy, Nial’s combat prowess decreased drastically. He was unable to use most of his tactics, and forget about sensing his opponent.
‘Fortunately, I am already holding a weapon in my hand. I cannot even access my spatial ring…’
Nial nibbled on his lower lip, trying to figure out where the Advocate was located. Maybe the Advocate was already watching him, waiting until he lowered his guard to attack and eliminate him at once.
Nial concentrated on his five senses but the only thing he could feel was the fluffy ground and the cold air that brushed against his body.
It was a somewhat familiar sensation. However, it didn’t make sense the more he thought about it.
After all, the only time he felt something like that was in the dream he had about the Divine Hall before he awoke his Origin. Before he awoke his Origin he had a particular dream once a month.
Inside the dream, Nial was able to see. It had always been a little weird because it never made sense that he could see in a dream, while he was totally blind.
However, that didn’t really matter right now. The only thing of importance was that the cloud-like scenery of the dream felt similar to the sensation he felt right now.
What did that mean? Was he in the same place as before?
Did he end up in the same Divine Hall as before? Will I meet the Divine Goddess again?
‘…Wait…’
A weird and unrealistic thought flashed through his mind. His expression stiffened at the seemingly impossible possibility that formed in his mind.
At this moment, the tip of his right foot pressed against a solid slate. There was a staircase.
It was similar to the dream he had when he was young.
No.
It was exactly the same!
The pressure around him increased slightly as he stepped up the stairs. He knew this feeling since he was overly familiar with it.
How many times had he been trying to ascend the staircase when his Origin had not yet awoken?
Nial didn’t remember anymore, but it was certainly more than a hundred times.
When he reached the final step the pressure around Nial dissipated as if it never existed in the first place.
However, Nial knew what this entailed.
He didn’t even think of lowering his guard and continued to step forward.
It didn’t take long before he reached the Divine Hall.
Nial had only seen it once, and he was not able to see or sense it right now.
Despite that, he could tell that he was where everything began for him.
“So, it ends where it all started?”
Nial had a premonition, but he hadn’t been sure about it. He heard some rumors and got to know which Gods were in possession of powerful Divinities related to their eyes.
He also got to know news about a particular god who became a Divine God after dismantling her Divinity.
This Divine God was none other than the Goddess of the Divine Eye.
She became a Divine God just a little bit over a century ago, and the power of her eyes was tremendous.
At last, she had a golden and a silver eye, and people said that she had been blind before.
Other Divine Gods presumed that she blinded herself in order to build a foundation for her Divine Eye, but Nial finally figured out what the truth was.
“The Goddess of the Divine Eye is…the Advocate?” Nial asked himself, somewhat perplexed, yet also feeling as if everything made sense.
But in that case…how was this Divine Hall related to the Advocate?
Wait…
Was the Advocate the Divine Goddess of this place all along?!?
While Nial fell into a state of shock and confusion, he heard the sound of heels clicking on the marble ground of the Divine Hall. It was extremely loud and rang in Nial’s ears, distracting him from the chaos in his mind.
“Fufufufu~ Looks like the little insect finally found out who I am!~” A clear voice resounded through the Divine Hall.
Nial lifted his head, though knowing that he wouldn’t be able to see or visualize the Divine Goddess.
But that was not necessary, in the first place. He knew what she looked like.
“Finally, we’re meeting, little Dark Succes–….huh?”
The Advocate of the Pryard halted in her tracks. She intended to create a big entrance and humiliate the Dark Successor for the trouble he caused her.
However, upon seeing Nial’s face, his overly familiar white and lifeless eyes, his peculiar facial features, and his silver hair, she halted in her tracks.
“Huh?!”
‘The Crown Prince of the Lacardia is the Dark Successor? Wait wait wait…Isn’t that the kid which entered my domain every month for over a decade a century ago?!?’
“Who the hell are you?!” The Advocate of the Pryard screamed, unable to hide her astonishment.
She had prepared to overwhelm the Dark Successor with shocking news, but it was actually her who ended up shocked to the core.
After all, the Divine Goddess, whose domain Nial had visited for years in his dream before awakening his Origin was the Advocate of the Pryard…the woman who took away his eyes, the woman who annihilated the Creaotran race in the Lacardia Empyrean Void…and the woman who was responsible for the fast awakening of his Origin.
All of this caused one particular question to flash through his entire being.
Were they always fated to face each other on the battlefield…to encounter one another several times over the course of Nial’s whole life?
