Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 498 What Noble Fate?!

In the Golden Bastion of the Celestial Realm where the 4 Geniuses were placed in to finish their training, a dark skinned girl was repeatedly watching the scenes of the recent battle at Verittas Fortress over and over again.

Her eyes were cold and filled with fighting intent as she watched a certain Infernal Lord move across the battlefield in a dominant manner, not a single creature being able to stand in his path as he obliterated anyone he came across.

She watched as this Infernal Lord caused the body of the Celestial Grandmaster that had presided over the tournament not too long ago, someone they looked up to with reverence because of their strength- she watched this beingʼs body exploded like a balloon with just a gesture of the Infernal Lord!

Athena glanced at this scene and the numerous other scenes as essence began converging around her body, a multitude of thoughts flowing through her mind as her Origin was unknowingly bubbling with power.

When she looked at these scenes, she did not feel any fear or horror that others would feel, nor did she feel sad or have a sense of loss at the perishing of an entire Celestial Legion. She very strongly believed in fate, and knew that it was simply the fate of those that perished to do so, their sacrifices only acting as stairs to elevate their battle to bring order and balance in an even greater fashion!

What she felt the most was actually the emotion of unwillingness and competitiveness as she looked at the figure of the Infernal Lord, ingraining it in her mind as she asked herself many questions.

She was someone that was a genius in Fate, and even held the title of a being with Noble Fate. Yet, why was it so that her power did not even match someone like her junior brother who had ascended to the World Realm? With her title, how could she be so useless that when she looked at her power and compared herself to the newly rising 9th Infernal Lord- she knew she would not even stand a chance and would be killed even faster than the dead Grandmasters!

She felt unwillingness as she looked at her very Origin and asked- why would someone with her title not have power at this level?!

RUMBLE!

Essence continued to madly converge around her as the unwillingness she felt to her core was further boosted by her battle intent as she looked at the spectacular scenes of battle, her origin madly absorbing essence as the War Princess was unconsciously raising her realm by the sheer strength of her will!

She had been enjoying numerous treasures for achieving her rank in the Tournament, even though it was nothing near the effectiveness of the [Luminescent Rainbow Dews] that Crixus and the Three-Eyed Fate Child received, she and Grandmaster Light were given numerous Elite Behemoth Materials at the World rank and even Cores of that same rank for each of them in an effort to further accelerate their realms.

Her body that was already drenched in absorbing those treasures was now madly absorbing even more essence as time passed, her rank nearing the peak of the Domain Expansion Realm as she wanted to break through to the World Realm by sheer willpower alone!

This was something only a genius holding the title of someone with a Noble Fate could do, something that only the War Princess with her strong lust for battle and unique title could achieve. As essence raged around her, she screamed in her heart for more strength, her rank continuing to shoot up as she inscribed the face of the 9th Infernal Lord to her heart.

This was the type of strength she aspired to have, so she would simply go forward to achieving it. When she did, she wanted to stand against this Infernal Lord to really test what Fate had in store for her.

She would either perish or rise above as she really lived up to the title of having a Noble Fate.

Otherwise, if she remained this weak- what use was there for her having such a title?!

RUMBLE!

As one genius tried making a breakthrough and enter a higher realm, an even more monstrous genius had returned to the Infernal Realm as Azula looked towards him with an exasperated expression.

This was because when Noahʼs Ancient Blood Clone first entered the Infernal Realm to accept the Letter of Summons, he had shown his rank to be at the Domain Realm!

Yet when he went to battle, he revealed power at the World Rank, the same realm where the 8th and 7th Infernal Lord stood at, and now this 9th Infernal Lord returned triumphantly after wiping the floor with an entire Celestial Legion.

Azula shook her head unbelievably as she could not even bring herself to stay near this monstrous genius, returning to her castle as she wanted to increase her power even by little before the numerous Celestial Legions began making their way across the Novus Galaxy.

Noah stationed the Infernal Legion that was under his command as their eyes remained on his leaving figure, these Infernals actually feeling a strong bond with the swirling chaos that always followed this Infernal Lord!

Having completed his task as the 9th Infernal Lord, he moved to reap the full benefits of the battle as his body changed out of the shape of a crowned Infernal Lord and returned to his normal one, teleporting to a certain region in the Light Expanse.

He appeared somewhere in the starry expanse of space as his gaze landed upon a particular Prime World, this world holding no special identity besides the fact that it was one of the many worlds in the memories that he absorbed from the defeated figures of beings from the numerous Prime Worlds that made up the forces of the Celestial Legion.

One of the bigger rewards he reaped out of the recent battle were these memories of thousands of beings...memories that he planned to use to connect numerous powerful worlds of the Light Expanse to himself as they forever disappeared from the eyes of everyone!

He would also use this time to obtain the required World Core for the upgrade of the Spiritual World as the first requirement of Domain Rank beasts had been met, only this single requirement remaining.

With the goal of amassing more worlds to himself and looking forward to another world-shaking upgrade of one of the most unique treasures he owned, his eyes shone with a golden luster as his figure silently streaked towards the Prime World in front of him to get started!
