Will of chaos-Chapter 1670: Cap 1668: It can’t be Sarazar...
Pov Alice:
I was so worried and tormented by what Zenos was doing that I didn’t feel when she appeared behind me, suddenly a pair of arms hugged me from behind as she left her face next to mine while looking at the statue of Zenos still surrounded by Tarzor’s shadow.
Her Aura was suppressing mine as I felt her emotions flowing into me, emotions of love, admiration and an overwhelming Will, she wasn’t calm, there was still worry, distress, anxiety, fear and frustration, but they were not worthy in comparison to the weight of the feelings that crushed upon me.
These feelings were so strong that they influenced my own feelings, my mind also calmed down a little as I felt safe in her arms.
"Calm down, Alice." (Ibuki)
"Don’t let fear and worry cloud your mind, don’t lose your path of Faith over small things." (Ibuki)
"He’s using the technique that he and Tarzor created." (me)

"Even if that’s true, Zenos would never commit suicide with his own technique." (Ibuki)
"Trust Zenos, he wouldn’t use a power that wasn’t necessary and if he does, it just means it was his best chance, so as his Saint... believe in him, believe that he’ll return safely and prepare to welcome him with a smile on your face." (Ibuki)
"Trust him, believe in him and depend on him if you want, he’ll never let you down." (Ibuki)
"Zenos..." (me)
Her words were imbued with Divinity and were trying to manipulate me, corrupt my mind with feelings better than the anguish I’d thrown myself into.
When she let me go I realized how irregular my breathing was and how my heartbeat was racing, my body was covered in sweat and my face was marked by bloody tears, even my blood circulation was reversed, this was an extreme abnormal level I was at.
"What technique is this to make a Saint lose faith in her God?" (Davoth)
"A technique that assimilates and embodies Tarzor within itself, a Primordial God that embodies his own Universe." (Vanessa)
"..." (Davoth)
"He’s not an idiot, if he thinks that again I won’t be held responsible for my actions." (Ibuki)
"I didn’t say anything." (Davoth)
"Your look says a lot, you don’t know Zenos like I do, so you don’t understand that he was never one to follow easy paths, he opens his own path where people only see the impossible." (Ibuki)
"(She’s right, you as a Saint must control yourself, don’t lose your Faith in him, don’t you dare doubt his return!!!)" (me)
It only took me a few seconds to get my emotions under control, dry the sweat on my body as well as the blood that leaked from my eyes with Fire Ki, then I controlled my blood to circulate properly while putting myself in a state worthy of the Saint I had become.
Sigh
"Thank you... I’m fine now..." (me)
"You guys at least understand... actually never mind, it would be hard to explain." (Davoth)
"(Something caught my attention, Davoth’s gaze was full of concern, but I’m sure he hasn’t known the master long enough to care about him, which means he’s worrying about what he might do.)" (me)
"What are you doing here? The master was quite explicit about your presence not only in this Temple, but also in this city." (me)
"He’s with me and I won’t take my eyes off him until I leave." (Ibuki)
"If Mrs. Ibuki vouches for you, then I think it’s best not to go against her." (me)
"I’ll be busy for a while, don’t let others disturb what I’m trying to accomplish unless it’s something really urgent." (Ibuki)
"I’ll do it." (me)
I watch the two Gods walk away, but even though I’m calmer, I can’t leave this place. I kneel in front of Zenos’ statue, then I pray to the only God who carries all my hope and devotion, himself.
"Please, may the paths guarded by the infinite stars open for you and may your steps be firm until the day you return to your home." (me)

Pov Davoth:
After we left the two Saints behind, Goddess Ibuki led me down a path directly below the Communal Temples, she was silent the entire time, but her Aura screamed her emotions as if trying to steady herself, as if she was constantly trying to convince herself of Zenos’ safety.
"(Using your power in this way, different beings have different powers, this is a basic knowledge that as you rise in power becomes more and more of an unbreakable rule.)" (me)
I have existed for a long time and have been in many bodies, I have lived many experiences, emotions and learned a lot from all of this.
Gods and Anomalous Creatures are of different concepts, Gods are those who follow the Natural Cycle and are also responsible for its maintenance regardless of whether they are good or evil Gods, thus their powers are based on the Natural Cycle.
Anomalous Creatures are those who have broken, rejected or been rejected by the Natural Cycle, thus becoming anomalies. Their power is based on what caused this separation from the Natural Cycle, as if it were a wound or scar in their Existence.
For Anomalous Dragons, it was Destruction and, in a way, a hunger for power. They were marked by this, becoming creatures that cannot exist without fighting and with an infinite hunger.
For Ascendants, it was the search for Authority and control. As such, they became tyrants who bring stagnation to everything they try to control. Their sense of superiority is a central aspect of their personalities, preventing them from following another path.
Anomalous creatures may be powerful, but in truth their power comes from their condemnation to absolute failure, a spiral of suffering where they sink alone. Few are those who have managed to escape this spiral by accepting their condemnation, something that rarely happens. But that wasn’t the problem now, the real problem was Zenos who had already become a God and an Anomalous Creature, someone who follows the Natural Cycle while continually breaking and altering it, he is able to do this because he is a Bringer of Chaos, I on the other hand was able to do this because of the vast knowledge I have of all creation in its various spheres.
Even so, I do not seek to become an Entity, these beings are creatures that do not belong to the Natural Cycle, they are creatures that belong to Creation, Destruction or the Abyss.
Entities are purely conceptual beings, their existences are in themselves their concepts, like a Bringer of Chaos Zenos would one day climb the stairs to become an Entity whether he wanted to or not simply because he was a Bringer of Chaos.
For someone who is still a God to try to incarnate a purely conceptual Entity, especially a Universal type Entity like Tarzor, even though he is still young and small in size, a Universe is too complex to represent more than one concept.
Incarnating or merging with an Entity is not something that should be possible, even to have a connection with an Entity already has extremely high requirements to support such a connection.
"(Zenos should be facing the Anomalous Dragons, among them the most powerful are the first generation with Arsan leading them being the strongest, even so as far as I know they are facing Lolth and with Akatosh joining her it should be enough for them to have a high chance of winning.)" (me)
"(There shouldn’t be a very high danger for Zebos to resort to this kind of extreme power, he wouldn’t be so stupid to use a power that he himself must know he might not support.)" (me)
I tried to think of the kind of enemy they are facing.
Luci has long since separated from the Anomalous Dragons, I tried to convince her to join the plan once, which she refused.
I also thought about the Ascendants, they always have someone watching their enemies, this would be the same as a three-sided battle since the Anomalous Dragons do not ally with anyone, this would be a possibility just like Zenos having managed to deal with the Anomalous Dragons and then being attacked by the Ascendants.
"(That would make more sense, this is the way the Ascendants normally do things...)" (me)
I couldn’t stop thinking about what could go wrong as we dodged more and more, Goddess Ibuki also didn’t say anything lost in her thoughts.
"..." (me)
It was at that moment that a thought came to my mind, a terrifying thought, the first Anomalous Dragon, Sarazar.
His power was far greater than that possessed by Arsan and Luci, but he had been touched by the Hunger, without realizing it he was becoming an Avatar of Hunger to the point of having made a deal to obtain the method to Seal himself.
"(It can’t be Sarazar, he must be sealed and not something that can be opened easily, as far as I know the key to his Seal was something created to be impossible to open again.)" (me)
For some reason the more I think about the impossibility of it being Sarazar, the more certain I am that he is the culprit, I understand that this is not me being paranoid but rather my instincts telling the truth about something that was already in progress.
"How did he manage to bring this out..." (me)
"What are you mumbling?" (Ibuki)
"Nothing... where are we?" (me)
"The Hall of the Gods, was built to be used in more complex rituals, the Divine power from the Temple above flows here easily if necessary and the structure is fortified." (Ibuki)
"The space here is Sanctified in communion with many Gods, so it has become the best place for many different types of rituals." (Ibuki)
She speaks, opening the doors to a hall that easily measures dozens of kilometers in circumference and the same in height.
Above, the roof has been taken over by a false starry sky created by Divine power, and on the walls are pillars containing engravings of every farewell enshrined in this Temple.
The Divine power down here is as dense as the main hall of Divine statues above.
"(This place will do just fine, the presence of other Gods means they could interfere in the middle of the process, I don’t like that possibility even if it’s unlikely.)" (me)
I try to take my mind off Zenos, whether or not he’s facing Sarazar, that’s already beyond my ability to interfere, I can only hope he succeeds and if he fails causing his death, then I’ll know by the repercussions on his Divine Statue here.
"(Concentrate only on what you can do...)" (me)
"Let’s begin." (me)
