Novel Bin Chapter 124
Zero couldn’t leave here yet because she still needed to find Lilith and the mark she had left on Lilith showed that the red-haired girl was still in this astral realm. Taking advantage of the shaken spatial structure Zero used her domain to magnify her sense, the glass-like spatial structure of the domain reflecting her mystery into the vast space towards the direction of the mark, with each step zero took the scenery rapidly changed as she walked through space teleporting towards Lilith’s location.
“Huh” a voice of surprise suddenly sounded, the voice seemed to wake up other dormant wills and soon the whole environment became noisy as chatter ensued and exclaims of surprises resounded in the area.
“Knowledge keeper I begin to doubt if you are qualified to hold your priesthood.”, a voice higher than other murmurs suddenly said loudly with unconcealed malice and greed
“Do you want to experience eternal sleep,” a cold voice replied indifferently.
“Enough, although the timing is different act according to plan and break out of the seal.” A majestic voice suddenly resounded putting a stop to all murmurs and arguments, the hidden space went back to silence and then beams of colourful light filled with pure divinity radiated out of this hidden layer of space into the astral realm.
Zero who saw this scene was not surprised she was already numb to the rapid changes that occurred in the star realm in this short period of time however when she tried to continue jumping in space she couldn’t help but exclaim softly in surprise as the space seemed to be reinforced and the divinity that suddenly appeared seemed to target all beings that weren’t divine, her domain that was previously sufficient to keep her in the astral realm for a period of time seemed to be failing as the divine nature that had multiplied and increased in the astral realm was increasing the pressure on the space trying to exclude everyone else, the colourful ensemble of divinity that appeared started to attack and a wave of divine energy spread out violently impacting everything in its path.
Zero who was already on guard quickly dove into a deeper space structure but the attack seemed to cover all layers and she knew there was no way to avoid it, she could only defend with all her might, an attack of this magnitude might not kill her but she knew she would inevitably be injured, just when she was bracing herself for the impact a bright white light arrived faster than anything passing easily through her domain entering into her body and shooting into her mind, Once the white light hit Zero vanished directly from the astral realm.
Lilith was in a peculiar state when she arrived in this realm, the realm was very friendly towards her as she possessed a divine body, with her peculiarity she could sense the hidden nature of the environment, the gods were located in a deeper layer of the space imprisoned and forced to maintain a state of sleep, Lilith was wondering why this was when she noticed the emergence of a new star.
.....
She was aware of what this signified but she was not worried for Layton as one might think because via their weird connection she felt he was still alive but had secretly left the astral realm, Lilith on the other hand was well aware she couldn’t leave, the existence of her divine body increased the difficulty in leaving the astral realm not only that, the earlier commotion caused by Layton had shaken some of the laws in the astral realm that were imposed on the gods and so they would soon be awake and aware of her existence.
Lilith ignored the several hidden existences that had taken advantage of the chaos to leave the astral realm instead she focused on her work, Slitting open her wrist with her fingernails drops of bright red blood flowed onto the rock beneath her feet to form a complicated circular sacrifice array with her in the middle, She quickly connected with the vague unconscious collection of wills that represented the astral realm and then presented a bargain, sacrificing herself becoming a gatekeeper in order to ensure the gods would not be able to leave the astral realm, of course she wasn’t selfless to scarify herself for an unknown plane, she was aware her divine body was made up the collection of a plane’s malice, depravity and sin and if connected with this new world the collection of its malice and sin coupled with the influx of faith would enable her divine body to go one step further although the act would put her on the opposite side of the gods but it was actually the safest place for her especially because her chance for promotion lied within this astral realm.
Although the vague will of the astral realm had not replied to her yet but she was confident it would accept her bargain, Lilith knew gods especially gods who were previously sealed, their first instinct was to connect back to the material realm and accept an influx of faith to regain their strength, sure enough a moment later a surge of combined divinity appeared in the astral realm, with the emergence of such divinity the unconscious collection of wills that made up the astral realm was quickly awakened and naturally chose the best and easiest option to restrain the awakened deity’s which was Lilith.
Lilith soon felt the surge of authority granted to her and her body was quickly disintegrating turning back to a complex sea of human malice, with the authority granted to her she quickly pinpointed Zero’s location and then from her dilapidating body she sent a beam of pure white light towards zero propelling her out of the astral realm.
On this day the whole world changed, a bright star suddenly appeared and shone brightly during the day, and not more than a minute later various meteors appeared crashing down towards the earth numerous celestial phenomena emerged all at the same time signifying the beginning of the change as hidden shackles seemed to be released, oracles received and the world beginning to change in an uncontrollable direction.
