Chapter 304 - Decree To Begin The Tribulation

Mysterious energy was being sent across many realms and many points in time. Destiny, who stood at the end of time, continued to send forth the energy from his time, and it blasted through the realm and crossed time and space. From where time ends, the energy was sent to a place where time continued.

In the timeline where the Nephilim existed, the gods and fallen were alerted by the energy to see reaching their land. But this was according to the intentions of Destiny. He knew that sending this energy would drain him and prevent him from battling the Nephilim and springing the traps he had set. And so, he made the power breach the known realms to add tension to the present time and force the gods and fallen to do his bidding.

In the fast emptiness of space, a god journeyed and stood at the edges of their territory. A single step more, and he would be in the range of the Ancient God that watches over this space.

On the other side of this Universe, Ancient God Bow Veiyos saw the figure and ignored him. Instead, she kept on looking for the strange power that broke into their world and vanished.

Standing a step short of Bow Veiyos's range, the Greater God led the great rebellion against the Ancient Gods, Rhykestorn Ever.

"What power is this?

" The Greater God Rhykestorn Ever could feel it trembling through time and space.

"It's not Calaminus... It's much stronger than that! It's an energy and power that comes from the future!

"

Suddenly, various figures appeared one after the other and stood next to him. Then, finally, a dark portal opened, and a being stepped out of the Heart of Darkness.

The many Gods and Fallen had felt a strange power, and Fallen Lord Thanatos Kyriachos had emerged from his hiding space.

"Lord Thanatos!

" Rhykestorn bowed.

"This energy... It's strange. The power itself is so weak. It has no power to harm us gods but only change the life of mortals. But yet, the power to do this is in itself terrifying.

"

"What is it? And where did it disappear to?

"

"We don't know. But from what I can tell, it's a power that could move through time. Unfortunately, it seems that our battle against the Ancients has brought in more trouble. So it's timely that when Calaminus turned back time, we are seeing this power that moves back from the future.

"

"Is that even possible? No other god or fallen has had the ability to exist in multiple timelines!

"

"Do you think we are the gods and fallen of this world?

" Thanatos asked.

"What do you mean, Lord Thanatos?

"

"Our existence and our memory have been wiped out. Our actions are only the effect of powers that we cannot see. Those that are gods over us are ordering us to fight their battles, and we don't even know. My memory from the Separated One tells me this. There are more gods and beings just like the Separated One, but they simply refuse to show themselves.

"

Rhykestorn was amazed at Lord Thanatos's revelation.

"I have kept this for myself. But this could not be a good sign. We have to start wars all over this land! We need to hurry and usher in a war that will birth more warriors for our faction. I give out the decree to begin the tribulations! All the Fallens and Gods to started great wars in all planets and cosmic bodies.

" Thanatos ordered and then vanished.

"As you will.

" Rhykestorn bowed as Thanatos vanished.

"You heard what Lord Thanatos commanded. So go! And someone tells Sheolrah to unseal more of those Eldrich since she is near that dark planet!

" Rhykestorn added.

As the gods and fallens moved, the mysterious energy that appeared and vanished had already made way to the fortress of Destiny that was erected in the Crossroads headed towards Middle.

The surge of power was harnessed by Pergos, and the act of resurrecting the fallen Commanders began.

The curses and blessings of Destiny echoed out as Pergos released it into the Crossroads and towards the Middle world.

Heralcus sneered as he saw the curses.

"My Lord Destiny is truly generous! Those curses are hard to overcome! They would need to raise their levels several times to get that result! Those Champions and their experts will take even longer!

" Heralcus laughed and concentrated on resurrecting the fallen.

"Neteri! We have to hurry! The faster we finish this, the better! We need Pergos to open the gate as early as possible! I dare not underestimate the Nephilim. One day maybe enough for him to overcome the curses of Destiny. Fate seemed to have abandoned the Nephilim and had not tried to counter Destiny's plan! This means Fate is preparing for the future battles once the Nephilim fails!

"

Neteri nodded.

"Share Soul Commander with me. I'll give you have of the souls.

"

"I am honored!

" Neteri was amazed. Half of this powerful artifact would be bestowed on her! This revealed how dedicated the Heralcus was.

Qara watched nearby and smiled. She had already finished assimilating with the Wind head, and the Deviant Wind Core of the Okto-Khefali was already within her.

"Will the Nephilim still have a chance?

" Qara smiled as she felt the power erupting within her.

"Impossible. We will attack tomorrow. What can they learn in two and a half days? Our power has risen, and we are several levels stronger than we were before. And that curse... oh, that malicious curse. Lord Destiny has sent three specific curses. Those curses assure our enemies will not be used to their bodies! Imagine perceiving things slower. Imagine harnessing a smaller percentage of Force Energy than what you are used to. Imagine the same for magic! Those mages will become useless, and those Sword Experts will only become food for us!

"

"So that's the curse? I have gotten several times faster, and that whelp of a dragon has gotten slower? I will make her suffer!

" Qara vowed.

Inside the Temple, in the Middle World...

**ASH!

An earth ball struck Gojirrah at the center of his chest and sent him flying back.

His score had quickly dropped, and several of those who had already thrown their objects landed on Gojirrah, and it brought Gojirrah's score back to zero.

CRASH!

On the other side, a heated battle between Branze, Aron, and Mezal was taking place. Several other battles were occurring, but the fight continued.

Those who wanted Reptilia as their wives had very high negative numbers. This was because many others had joined in on the fight.

Apart from the Emberdons, no one dared to yearn for any of the Steele family or the Steele Family wives as they would see the threatening eyes of the rest. And so, the most common target that the population set their eyes on was either Kyros himself, Reptilia, Hunter, and the human Emberdons.

But most of the men aimed for Reptilia, so those who had great progress were bullied with a combined attack.

Kyros also even allowed some blows to hit him to increase the negative points of the rest. But if it was the Coven, his family, or anyone else who was a powerhouse, he would evade.

Gojiraah managed to work his way up back to zero and quickly scored ten points but was struck by Kyros.

It had been four hours since they started, and the Temple was slowly healing them of their stamina and adding more vigor for the entire game round.

The game had been going on for the past two hours, but Kyros's arrangements, actions, and control of De-Spacito resulted in everyone's score being either on the negative points or at zero.

Finally, the time limit was reached.

"Time's up!

" Calaminus announced, and the power of De-Spacito ended.

"Stop!

" Kyros activated Holy Beam, and the Temple flashed with a great light.

Everyone was startled, and the chaos stopped.

All the scattered objects were suddenly sent back into the Temple Storage Space.

"Alright. This will be the end of this session. We will have another game tomorrow. So everyone, rest up! Oh. And I forbid anyone to fight each other about the conflicting desires. This is also part of your training. Remember, we have a succubus among us and is one of Destiny's strongest champions, so it will soon come to the point that the hatred and conflicting desires you have with each other will be used against each other. Part of being a Steele Family is learning how to endure. So return each to do your training. But be warned. I may declare the game once more, and the first hits that each will make or take will be worth a hundred points.

" Kyros instructed.

The eyes of everyone became cautious as they glared at each other.

"I will announce it anytime I feel like it. So be ready to fight.

" Kyros smiled and walked back.

"Amazing... You actually made a lot of progress in the first session!

" After that, Calaminus communicated secretly to Kyros.

"You are teaching them how to do Pronto!

"
