Chapter 101

Chapter 101: Chapter 101: The World Reacts Chapter 101 — The World Reacts Not only the outside world reacted to the loud chime of the Akashic Records.

In the Weaverheart estate, Selene and Luminara raised their heads at the exact same moment the chime resounded.

Their eyes were serious. They had lived long lives — especially Luminara — so they understood just how unusual this situation was.

"Something drastic occurred," Luminara said, her purple eyes narrowing in thought.

But Selene tilted her head. "Why do I feel like my dear baby might be responsible for this?"

She didn’t know why — but the feeling wouldn’t go away.

Luminara shot her a glare. "You idiot. Can’t you stop thinking about your son for once? This situation is more important than you think."

Selene looked at Luminara like she’d just been betrayed. "I am serious, Luminara."

She really was. How dare she accuse me of always thinking about my son.

She paused.

Then smiled softly.

"Well... actually, you might be right."

Luminara looked at her like a cat about to pounce after its tail got stepped on.

Selene laughed — free and happy, after acknowledging her feelings. Now...

"Let’s go meet Noah. I mean, we’ll think about this together. It’s not like we can do anything anyway — we have no information about what this means," Selene said.

She changed her outfit into a beautiful silver dress, patterned with purple lotus flowers.

Luminara sighed, returned to her cat form, and hopped onto Selene’s shoulder.

"Let’s just go. I’d love to see how you declare your feelings to Noah," she said in a mocking voice. Her cat face seemed to... smirk? It was oddly amusing.

Selene flinched.

"I-I forgot about that part..."

Luminara’s smirk widened.

"I will enjoy this."

...

It wasn’t only them.

The elves reacted. The beasts reacted.

They didn’t know what the chime meant — but their divine backings did. Yet none of them deemed it necessary to explain it to their champions.

As if it didn’t matter.

Because none of them believed the being who caused this event could possibly exist in this weak world.

Even though finding a world without gods was rare, and every divine force wanted to claim it for themselves, they all thought long-term. A world could be slowly evolved to higher stages, and then used as a new source of resources for their younger generations.

To them, that’s all this world was.

Just another project.

But what a mistake.

And they would realize it too late.

...

Laeh, the world’s will, sat in the air, legs crossed. Calm.

He too had heard the chime. And like Selene—

"Why do I feel like my lucky star is responsible for this?" he asked himself, head tilted.

It was strange, but after so many miracles — all tied to Noah — how could he not suspect him?

Laeh smiled. "Well, doesn’t matter. What matters is that he’s meeting that sneaky demoness. That’s good. Hopefully he can pull her in, so she can at least help him."

Because he still thought that defeating the other champions wouldn’t be easy. Even if Noah was exceptional, having a being of a higher level on his side — not like Elira — would be a huge help.

"Well, we’ll see. Either way, we succeed together or we die together," he said with a small smile.

After all, he had linked his own life to Noah.

Basically, Noah now carried the weight of an entire world on his shoulders.

A heavy burden — but necessary, if he wanted to succeed.

...

Goddess Justicia heard the chime too.

And unlike others, she had some information about it.

And suddenly... she felt nervous.

A goddess — a celestial at her level — nervous?

Almost impossible.

She used all her means to find the source. Because if a god felt even a little bit of this kind of disturbance, it meant something terrible was on the horizon.

But she couldn’t find anything.

And how could she?

She was feeling this because of Noah. And she couldn’t trace him — not with his title, "True Anomaly." He couldn’t be tracked. Not even by fate or destiny.

So no matter how much she searched, she would find nothing.

But she could act.

And acting meant accelerating her plans to take over the world of Laeh.

She gritted her teeth.

"Do I really have no choice?" She didn’t want to go this far — it would weaken her considerably.

But first, she had to make an agreement with the other factions.

She waved her hand, and four golden crows appeared.

"Go to the demons, dragons, elves, and divine beasts. Tell them I have a proposal. In five years, the battle for this world will begin. Until then, each of their champions may train to their fullest. It’s the best way to handle this without unnecessary losses."

The crows chirped and flew off toward their destinations.

Justicia raised her head. If they agreed, then she — a goddess — would personally train her champion. She would make him a monster, even if it cost her greatly.

Her eyes hardened.

"No hesitation. If I take over the world, I’ll gain more than I lose."

And so her decision was made.

And the other factions soon followed.

They accepted.

In five years, the battle would begin.

And at that time...

No mercy would be given.

...

Noah smiled. He looked at Echidna, who stood before him.

"Well... five years, huh," Noah muttered.

He had just received the news of Justicia’s proposal — and that all the other factions had accepted.

The dragons and demons, because they still hadn’t chosen champions.

The elves and beasts, because they believed five years of training would give them an overwhelming edge.

So it was confirmed.

Five years.

"That’s quite a bit of time. Enough to do a few things," Noah said casually.

Echidna nodded.

"Yes. And now we’re partners."

"You’ll give a fire talent to one of my companions. In return, you want a portion of this world’s resources once I claim it," Noah summarized.

"You’ll also support me, and warn me of any actions taken by the other factions."

"That’s it, right?"

Echidna nodded. "Indeed."

She tilted her head. "I still don’t know why you don’t want me to give you the fire talent directly."

"I have my reasons," Noah replied simply.

Echidna decided not to press further. Time was short.

They sealed the deal with a contract — one given by Echidna herself.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you," she added with a smirk. "The dwarves are already in my hand. So no need to worry about them. Just tell Lucie — she’ll control them and give you what you need."

"Oh? A pleasant surprise. Two birds with one stone."

Noah disappeared, returning to his world.

Echidna stood alone.

Then a little smirk appeared on her face.

"To think... I’m the only one who knows the Third Abomination."

She smirked wider.

She would never tell.

She would stay close to Noah — as close as possible.

Because that’s how the Abominations were.

Anyone near them lived in eternal glory.

And who wouldn’t want that?

This might be her only chance to climb to the higher floors of Hell...

And become—

A True Ruler. One who embodies a Sin.

She shivered, already imagining it.

She couldn’t wait.
