YM778.TV Chapter 630 Shocking
Still, that wasn\'t the scariest, Ren actually said that he would battle the ORIGIN. That was the creator of all things of all the universes that are known and unknown. The very idea of fighting someone like that was pure insanity, it wouldn\'t even be considered a fight since Richard can\'t even imagine how Ren would fight such a being.
Even if Ren could somehow win which is impossible what happens then? Victory against the ORIGIN might mean the collapse of all the universes and all creation. Defeat in a battle like that would also result in horrific consequences.
"Calm yourself and sit down."
Ren stopped eating for a moment as he looked at his flustered descendant. Even though Ren was not releasing his killing intent or anything similar to that, his very presence alone was able to suppress Richard\'s anger. Richard gulped as his legs were shaking, and he slowly sat back down.
"Ancestor surely you know the implications of fighting against such a being."
"Of course, I know, how could I not know? Which is why I said it was going to be the Final Battle. I meant that literally, it will be the final battle for everyone, not just me."
"Why do you need to do this? Is it because of your lust for battle?"
Richard asked, since he remembers the numerous stories of the Strongest Mortal Soul, the main similarity of all of the incarnations of the Strongest Mortal Soul no matter how they were raised was their joy for battle.
"Though the thought of fighting the creator of all things is indeed exciting for me, that\'s not really the main point. Haven\'t you noticed what has been happening around you, not just here in the upper planes but in the lower ones as well, didn\'t the elders of your clan tell you anything?"
"... What do you mean?..." Seeing the confused look on Richard\'s face, Ren could not help but sigh. It seems that almost every descendant he has met has been quite disappointing.
"Why do you think the Demi-Gods have been going wild and started attacking? Also, why have the Clans who were created by the various incarnations of the Strongest Mortal Soul started showing up now?"
When Richard heard what Ren said various memories came flooding his mind. The time when the elders sent their best fighters to kill an Old God, the time when all this madness started he was sent out of the Clan. The timing for every action couldn\'t just be a coincidence, it meant there was a purpose to making those moves at that period of time. Like pieces of the puzzle sticking together to form a clearer picture Richard was finally beginning to understand. The questions he used to have now had answers and the view became clearer to him.
"Why is this happening, is there a way to stop this madness?"
"Hmph, this battle has been delayed for a very long time now. Unfortunately, no matter what we do at this point it can no longer be delayed. The madness of the Gods, the battle against the ORIGIN everything is inevitable. So you can either cower in fear or fight until the end."
"Then we must inform everyone of this battle! We must get all the Clans in the upper realm to join hands and fight! Then there\'s also the people in the lower realm we must somehow inform them of the upcoming disaster."
Ren looked at the frantic Richard and sighed as he shook his head. What happened to the cold cool type descendant he saw before? It was like he was looking at an entirely different person.
Well, truth be told it wasn\'t really Richard\'s fault since anyone except for Ren would react the same way if they heard that someone wanted to fight the ORIGIN and this story about the final battle. In fact, others might have gone insane the moment they hear the truth, which just proves how much better Richard was compared to others.
"Telling other people about the upcoming final battle will not help, in fact, it might make things worse."
"Huh, why?"
"Do you remember your reaction when I told you about fighting the ORIGIN? You wanted to quit before even starting and unfortunately, you are one of the braver ones. Now imagine telling this to a normal person."
Hearing what Ren said Richard started to sweat a bit as he clenched his fist.
"Now if we told everybody either everyone suddenly becomes braver and we all unite to fight the common enemy, or everyone starts to panic and does a lot of stupid things before fighting the enemy. I think the latter is more likely to happen. So it\'s best to not tell anyone at all and let them do their best to survive the upcoming crisis without the knowledge of the battle I\'m about to undertake. Don\'t worry most of you people will only fight the Gods that get by me. I\'ll be sure to kill the stronger ones."
Every word Ren spoke was brimming with confidence despite the bleak situation. Hearing him speak like this even made Richard who was skeptical before feel like this whole ordeal wasn\'t a big deal after all.
"But Ancestor, I\'m sure if it\'s you, you could lead everyone to victory. If you tell everyone your identity they will surely follow you to the death."
Ren sighed before answering.
"That\'s a very big assumption you have there... Well, to tell you the truth, in this coming battle, it would be easier for me to move on my own and not lead a bunch of weaklings to battle. If I were to do what you say I would surely get distracted in battle instead of simply focusing on it. The best way for everyone in this situation is to allow me to do what I must do without any distractions this way more people might be saved once I win."
Ren had already thought of doing what Richard suggested long ago, but no matter how he looked at it that way was a dead end. Some of Ren\'s past incarnations might have been decent commanders but aside from the original which Ren knew little about, there was never an incarnation that was truly great at commanding people, as he never truly trusted anyone but himself. It was better to do things he was good at.
"... Then Ancestor, what do you think will happen if you lose?"
"If I lose the final battle, then if we are lucky enough the ORIGIN will create a new humanity without free will. It may no longer be us but at least humanity will exist. If we\'re not lucky then every human will cease to exist."
"Then what will happen if you win?..." Once that question came out, Ren and Richard became quiet, and the atmosphere became even more intense. Ren who always had a casual look on his face became serious making Richard even more nervous.
