Will of Сhaos - Chapter 1259: Cap 1257: Something that cannot be understood

I was following Callidora when she called me, but with every step I took the landscape changed dramatically as if I were passing through different worlds and I felt something binding me to Callidora so I wouldn’t get out of the way, I knew this bond was so fragile it could break. just choosing to stay still anyway I continued walking.

Notion of time or space simply blurred in my head as seconds became millennia before becoming minutes or just the time to blink my eyes, time seemed as linear as the scribbles of a 2 year old or an abstract painter, I honestly never saw a difference between these two examples.

But suddenly I stopped in a spot that looked like the exact same forest we were in before, it was as if a few seconds had passed as I took a few steps forward and yet things were fundamentally different.

I looked ahead and Callidora was checking Niryna’s Soul with a smile on her face, she ran her hand over her soul with even excessive care, Niryna’s Soul never opened her eyes as if she was in a deep sleep.

I took the time to look around trying to understand what was so different and what was what I felt during those few steps, that’s when I realized what the difference was.

“They’re nowhere!?” (I)

I was confused, since I arrived in Hell there have always been 3 energies all over the place, these were the energies of Death, Demonic Energy, and Cursed Energy.

The only exceptions were for the places that I assumed were the sources of each of these energies where I did the 3 tests collecting these energies, in these places, there was only one of these energies at a time.

But this place doesn’t have any of those energies, in fact, I can’t feel any kind of energy, there is just an emptiness that gives me goosebumps the more I try to delve deeper, every part of me begs me to stop and let go of these thoughts, but I wouldn’t accepting to let Niryna be reborn in such a strange place without me understanding anything around me.

Asking Callidora was a sure no, she is someone so old that I dare not try to imagine her age and as malicious as a child with no sense of right or wrong full of curiosity with an insane degree of psychopathy, she would try to deceive me or tell half truths to escape the question, maybe and just maybe she chooses to just say no directly.

But the truth is that even if she told the complete truth I wouldn’t believe it, I’m not able to completely trust what she says and she knows that, she even enjoys it as we talk like a person laughing during a conversation using inside jokes that you don’t know.

That’s why I keep deepening my senses and still, all I feel is emptiness, even using my Aura or skills I haven’t achieved anything other than an increasing restlessness as if I were on the edge of a cliff looking into the darkness below without being each of be aware if there is a bottom at the end.

Even with all this restlessness and maybe even a little panic, I continued investigating to the point of trying to use my Authority through my Aura to feel the surroundings, that was when I felt something in that place for the first time, it was an energy and at the same time a presence, something obscure, tangible, ethereal and at the same time horrendous.

I wasn’t able to describe it completely, but it was as if it was Aura and Authority as one thing mixed with other things, I couldn’t understand it and how much obediently I tried I felt falling into a circle of absolute incomprehension as if I was fundamentally incapable of to understand.

“You shouldn’t poke your nose into a girl’s secrets, didn’t they teach you that?” (Callidora)

“…” (I)

Sigh

I was tired to the point of exhaustion, my limbs were shaking with weakness, I felt permanent goosebumps on my skin, my body was covered in sweat to the point that it bled through my skin along with the sweat and my consciousness became tenuous due to extreme weakness.

Callidora takes a glass and forces my mouth open before pouring the contents down my throat, that’s when I felt an explosion of energy from the inside out, disappearing with everything bad I’m feeling as I leave myself in full shape once again.

“What was this?” (I)

“Just a little bit of blood and vitality that is sacrificed to me by people from various universes is useless to me, but it is an excellent currency to corrupt some greedy idiots.” (Callidora)

“It won’t have any negative effect on you, it was free since I need you well, my daughter’s Father needs to be well on the day of her birth.” (Callidora)

“Don’t formulate sentences with so many strange insinuations…” (I)

Sigh

“(I look fine and I don’t feel any different… but what was that feeling?)” (I)

“(I’ve never felt anything like that… I can’t even describe it…)” (I)

Just remembering that made my heart race to the point where I felt like I was ready to burst out of my chest.

“Just forget what you felt, it won’t be helpful to have that in your head.” (Callidora)

“…” (I)

I was going to ask her a question, but when I looked at her, I also looked at the surroundings again and it seemed different once again, the landscape was the same, but it was as if a curtain had opened and I felt traces of that feeling flowing into this whole place, in fact, it seems as if it has always been there.

“I didn’t expect that, maybe you’re more bizarre than him…weird.” (Callidora)

“But what is this!?” (I)

“Well, at this point there’s no point in leaving it alone, so I’ll just say it’s me.” (Callidora)

“This is my blood, my vitality, my energy, my Aura, my Authority, and perhaps even a type of Divinity, this is me and at the same time what I represent, this is everything and at the same time nothing of what I am.” (Callidora)

“…” (I)

“I think this explanation is the closest to the truth, it can be a little difficult to explain these things to someone as material as you.” (Callidora)

“An entity like me exists and functions on a scale that is difficult for you to be able to begin to understand, so the explanation I have given in a practical sense may be the closest to the truth for you.” (Callidora)

“…” (I)

For the first time, her face was neutral, she didn’t show any emotion while she spoke and gave me the impression that she wasn’t lying, even the cynical and mocking tone always present in her voice was absent while she spoke, this made me pay enormous attention to every word and I decided to take that as truth since your explanation came close to the little I could feel, I also can’t deny that I was unable to perfectly understand that.

“(Wait… if this place only has this…)” (I)

I looked around again, this time I didn’t delve into what this energy (?) was in the surroundings, I just focused on the lack of any other energy and looked at Niryna realizing that it was flowing through her Soul.

“That doesn’t do anything against her, as my daughter she needs some of what I am, I thought that was implicit in our agreement.” (Callidora)

“All right, I)

“(I’ll just consider this the Essence of Hell, it should be enough.)” (I)

“Stop trying to invent things, calling it an essence is an even shallower explanation than what I just said.” (Callidora)

“There are no words or terms to describe what this is like for you, even my daughter will not receive this in full or she will be trapped here, which would defeat the purpose of her existence.” (Callidora)

“Don’t try to understand an incomplete concept that doesn’t exist in reality and let’s get back to work.” (Callidora)

“Okay, but while we’re at it can you stop reading my mind?” (I)

“No, now let’s get down to business.” (Callidora)

“…” (I)

She’s as irrational as ever, but I’ll leave it at that since we have to get back to business and my only focus is Niryna’s good.

I’m not exactly okay with this, but I knew she wouldn’t do anything against Niryna, her desire to accomplish all this didn’t seem fake and if she wanted to do harm to Niryna she would be able to realize when the process of her rebirth begins.

“Then we won’t waste any more time.” (Callidora)

As if responding to her flames, this presence, energy, or whatever it was began to flow between Niryna and the sphere where the three energies I collected in this Hell were refined, that was when Callidora returned to her usual smug face as she indicated that she was my turn to act.

“Let’s finish this…” (I) n-.OIn

When I was about to start, I noticed a change that I missed during my meditation, my ability related to my Authority was different, and even without looking at the description I knew the reason, after everything I went through in Hell I already completely understood my Authority that kept me I live in that Cursed Ocean.

I spent just one thought on this change that I hadn’t noticed before, then began the Awakening Ceremony for Niryna’s Rebirth.
