Will of chaos-Chapter 1683: Cap 1681: My Mission
"Welcome, Zenos... to the threshold of Life and Death..." (2 voices)
I was there in front of the two statues that seemed more and more alive, they didn’t seem to move, but they didn’t seem to be an object, the cloak that covered them only hid their true appearance.
Their presences were invisible to me, their Auras beyond what my senses could reach, I felt helpless in many ways in this place, but at least I had strong suspicions of who these two were.
"Do you mean I’m dead?" (me)
"No..." (2 voices)
"So I’m alive...?" (me)
"Yes..." (2 voices)
"..." (me)
"..." (2 voices)
Time passed with everyone silent, there was no sound in the surroundings other than my movements and our words, so the silence was deafening as I waited for them to tell me the reason why I was here, but after a few minutes of silence I could no longer stand to be silent.
"You are Kalistos and Mavis, aren’t you?" (me)
"That’s what we’re called..." (2 Voices)
"Why do you speak like that? Can’t you speak one at a time?" (me)
"At the moment our thoughts complement each other, we’ve been together since creation and as such our purpose complements each other, our voices don’t reach you, what you’re hearing is just the interpretation of the will we express to you, as we say the same thing your mind gathers all this information in this way for you..." (2 voices)
"As only I express my will now, only my voice is heard in your mind." (Kalistos)
"..." (me)
"The same goes for me, you understand now." (Mavis)
"But I’m listening with my ears...?" (me)
"You’re not here with your body, so whose ears do you think you’re listening with?" (2 voices)
"Do you understand..?" (2 voices)
"I think so." (me)
While they speak, even dividing their voices as they take turns, at no point do I feel them look at me, they don’t even move, I try to get closer, but with the first step I’m already immobilized once again, my whole body shaking as if it were screaming at me to get out of here.
"Don’t get close to these waters or try to see what’s behind these robes." (Kalistos)
"We’re not talking to you through the fragments, we are the cohesive whole above all, we don’t have a body per se and these waters are beyond your current understanding to bear a glimpse of." (Mavis)
"What? So I can’t get closer?" (me)
"You can get closer if you want, but you shouldn’t if you want to keep your Existential Spark intact and your Soul continue to exist." (2 voices)
"..." (me)
"..." (Kalistos)
"..." (Mavis)
They are starting to understand that they are not Goddesses of Life and Death, I am also sure that they are not the twins, which only leaves one option, these are the entities of Life and Death, before I suspected that they were the Gods of Life and Death of this universe, but now that has gone too far in a short time.
But even though I was apprehensive, I needed to know what was happening, I could not once again let myself fall into that uncomfortable silence.
"Why did you bring me here? Let’s just end this quickly." (me)
"I think you are working on a misunderstanding." (Kalistos)
"It seems like you really don’t know... to actually come here like this... as expected for a Bringer of Chaos." (Mavis)
"I know what? What are you talking about?" (me)
"We didn’t call you here." (2 voices)
"But if you didn’t call me here... then how did I get here...?" (me)
My head went into a spin, I with difficulty returned to my original position without daring to try to get closer again, I tried to look around in the little distance that my eyes could see, but besides the darkness of the forest, the basic outline of the trees and the strands of white light coming from above, there is nothing else to see.
Only this space where I am has some colorful flowers and it has also become better lit, while everything else in this place was dominated by the darkness of the shadows and the thin strands of light that barely illuminate, a mixture of black and white as if it were in an old movie.
"(I can’t tell if this place has no sound or if I can’t hear anything, after what they said I’m more willing to believe the second option.)" (me)
"Do you know how I ended up here?" (me)
"You came straight to us by yourself..." (2 voices)
"What!?" (me)
"I don’t even know where I am, how could I have come here by myself!?" (me)
"You were influenced by the 2 fragments of us that became independent individuals using their newly discovered Concepts near you." (Mavis)
"Your Concepts are a distortion of ours through your power of Chaos, we can say a new branch of our Concepts." (Kalistos)
"These two powers influenced your power of Chaos at a time when your body was devastated and weakly connected to your Soul, it was then that you found yourself drawn to us." (2 voices)
"So it was like a magnet?" (me)
"The natural cycle is a creation of 3 powers of which we represent only 2, your power complements ours as part of the cycle." (2 voices)
"..." (me)
I’m starting to understand things, I’ve heard a lot about the natural cycle, I’ve also studied it several times and done some experiments, I’ve had many experiences that helped theorize about it from different points of view, so I can see how my power could have dragged me here.
"This space doesn’t really exist, we created this little garden to interact, a connecting link, outside of it nothing existed until you arrived." (2 voices)
"You mean I created this scary forest?" (me)
"We never said it was a forest." (2 voices)
Suddenly I feel something shake me, but there was nothing around me, I was scared for a second by this sudden change.
"Someone is calling for him..." (Mavis)
"Remember, we are not the fragments that were named after Goddesses, our true names are older than that and known to all." (Kalistos)
"As new lives, your two daughters and our old fragments should not carry these names either, a new name should be a symbol of their birth." (Mavis)
"Now come back... it’s still too early for you to join us...!" (2 voices)
"What the...!!!" (me)
Suddenly I feel pulled away, in the split second where my feet leave the ground, I see arms and tentacles coming out of the forest as well as lines of light moving like snakes, all coming towards me at absurd speeds, and then everything disappeared.
When I opened my eyes I was facing a very angry face while feeling a lot of pain.
---------------------
Pov Life:
I look at the dark forest writhing as if searching for its creator, I didn’t think it would have so much intelligence to move like this after birth.
"He left us with a problem on our hands." (me)
"Yes, we will have to teach him how to behave, but at least he already has a purpose." (Death)
"We can let Reincarnation take care of this, he has a lot to deal with with our lost fragments." (me)
"Have you taken care of the distortions?" (me)
"Yes." (Death)
"Have you taken care of the Vital flow?" (Death)
"Yes, that should limit his influence from becoming too expansive." (me)
"At least now we know his Concepts." (Death)

"Yes, but we still have to balance within our own, this will take a small amount of time to complete, at least the worst has been resolved since this creature was born." (me)
"I didn’t expect him to distort our concepts so soon, he’s growing faster than Paradox." (Death)
"I think the same, he’s a strange Chaos Bringer." (me)
From within the pool of reality a wave of vital energy emerges and I disperse it in the surroundings, with the creature absorbing it it seems to have calmed down a bit.

Pov Luci:
As soon as I saw Akatosh come out through a portal, I hurried to enter, passing through the portal was simple and as soon as I did he reacted to my presence.
Tarzor, a strangely complete Living Universe compared to the rare ones I’ve encountered on my journey, he arrested me for invading without permission and I still don’t know why he let me go.
Most likely he was ordered to let me go, but the question would be by whose orders?
Zenos certainly must not be in a condition to do this, but before I could guess the identity of this person or even know the direction in which I should find Sarazar, I felt a hand on my shoulder dragging my body to another place where I found a cocoon of Runes different from the one I saw outside.
This cocoon of energy was the size of a large Star System and the flaming black Runes formed thousands of rings rotating around it while an extremely cold presence of death surrounded everything, I couldn’t even get any closer than I already was.
I was frustrated, but I still didn’t let the one who was next to me pass by, his well-known presence makes me nervous knowing my helplessness before him.
"Why are you here... Reincarnation?" (me)
"I thought you would like to see him one last time before leaving for your mission." (Reincarnation)
"My mission..." (me)
I didn’t expect to be put against the wall so soon, a deal like that can cause more than just death and I know that, even now it wouldn’t be impossible for him to be seeing inside my mind, there was no way I could refuse the promises I made and I also had no such plans.
"Will they be okay?" (me)
"Yes, they will all have a new life, a new race, but they will have no memories, at least not most of them." (Reincarnation)
"Sarazar?" (me)
"Not just him, your dear Arsan is also going through a... different procedure." (Reincarnation)
"..." (me)
Just knowing that they are safe is enough for me, preserving their existence is a miracle in itself, asking for more than that would be absurd and not remembering the atrocities we committed could be a blessing for them.
"I’m ready to go." (me)
"Then let’s go now, I won’t interfere, but I will take you there, that’s the extent of my help." (Reincarnation)
"That’s enough..." (me)
I look one last time at the Cocoon where Sarazar was, then I remember the egg where Arsan is, before turning my back to break the power of an Entity surrounding my body before pulling it into the distance.
"(I will fulfill this mission and return... I promise...)" (me)
