These two divine siblings never had proper ti to take a break, even less talk with one another, from heart to heart like they were doing right now.
I don't know if this Yggdrasil is truly the sa as before, but she's the embodint of her Records within this World, so I'll consider her Yggdrasil anyways.
I really had imagined so kind of fight, actually, so I'm very relieved none of that happened, and that Yggdrasil was a very mature being… person… woman.
Though I still feel it's a bit peculiar that when she was the Yggdragon she identified as a man, but after becoming Yggdrasil, she beca a female.
So I decided to ask her that…
"Oh, you an the change in my identity?" she wondered. "I am not too sure myself, it feels like, while I was the Yggdragon, he's still a different being than . As I had said before, it was as if I reincarnated. Perhaps because instead of a dragon that battled, I beca a tree that granted life, my identity beca that of a woman, because females are the ones that create life, isn't it? A mother, just like Mother Gaia. Perhaps that's what my own instincts told to beco. A Mother for this torn, damaged world."
"I see…" I nodded. "I rembered hearing the Yggdragon's voice sotis, do you still harbor him within you?"
"Not anymore… What you heard must've been the echoes of his Legacy and Powers you've inherited from him," said Yggdrasil. "But who knows? Maybe one day you will find another Fragnt of the Past, one that'll lead you to a ti when he was still alive."
"That would be amazing…" I said. "But yeah, I guess this is enough for now. Thanks for the answer."
"You're welco," said Yggdrasil. "Now, let's go to the matter at hand, the reason you're here to talk with , aside from my eting with my brother."
"Ah, yeah, it's about rlinus, the Demon Kings helping him, and everything else…" I said, speaking to her about things.
"…I see."
She quickly understood most of what I said, if she had a head, I guess she would be nodding.
"So the other fragnts of my brother had already beco active within that Future… This is indeed very troubleso," said Yggdrasil. "To think that a human, the race of weak beings we've been nurturing to populate the world alongside the other tribes would beco such a monstrous being… But is he truly just a monster? There's always a story behind anything, even the most fearso and hated being has a story to tell, and a reason why they are the way they are."
"…I guess so, but right now we can't really afford to have pity or rcy for him," I said. "He has done… too many terrible things, and we have to stop him before the entire Kingdom is destroyed."
"…Of course, my bad," Yggdrasil said. "I could give to you sothing, a gift… Or perhaps a technique?"
"Eh? What is it?" I wondered, feeling excited.
"The Power I used to seal Erebus' Fragnts," said Yggdrasil. "At your current level, it will be utterly impossible to do what I did though."
"Oh…" I muttered.
"You would need to beco several tis stronger, and I don't an through buffs or skills," she said. "But your innate growth as Yggdragon and of your Soul. It'll take ti, even when the System assists your growth, this power cannot be easily cultivated."
"I understand…" I sighed.
"However." She said out of nowhere. "I can actually still teach you a part of this millenary, divine technique. A power I was born with, and a power you should've also been born with. It won't have the sa effects but… It could potentially do sothing against the Demon Kings, either stun them temporarily, weaken them, or even decrease their strength. No matter the scenario, this should give you an incredible edge against my brothers. And even rlinus, who has assimilated the powers of the Demons, direct descendants of a fragnt of my brother, therefore, becoming a lot like him, so it could work... Or not at all."
"Amazing! Yes, please, anything would be great!" I nodded excitedly.
"Very well," she said, her entire body glowing brighter.
FLAAASH!
She extended a root of wood from her body and then placed a white sphere overflowing with divine spirit energy on top of it.
"By touching this, our Souls will connect temporarily," she said. "Once it happens, I will help you awaken this innate power. It should only take a second."
"O-Okay…" I nodded.
I gently touched the sphere, it was cold.
FLUOSH!
In that very second, I suddenly found myself within an endless sea of colors, constantly flowing forward.
This was Yggdrasil's soul!
But this ti, I wasn't about to die from experiencing its powers, it felt soothing, relaxing even.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
And then I saw it, countless fragnts, her mories appearing everywhere around .
I felt my consciousness being absorbed by these mory fragnts, as I saw what she went through.
Or what the Yggdragon went through.
RUMBLE!
The skies were dark, the ground was on flas.
A gigantic behemoth stood above everything, its massive body made of countless black, blue, red, green, yellow, and purple ooze, swirling together to form a slightly humanoid monstrosity.
It had many heads and eyes, an embodint of pure chaos, everywhere it walked through, and everywhere it looked, things began to explode, burn, rot, and decay.
Erebus truest form, when all seven fragnts had yet to exist… Stay updated with My Virtual Library Empire
When he wasn't the Demon King yet… but the God of Chaos.
"UUUAAARRGGGHH!"
He scread furiously, his eyes were constantly crying, everywhere he looked, he destroyed everything, even when…
Even when he seed to not want to do that.
"WHYYYYY! THIS HATRED…! THIS ANGER…! THIS RESENTNT…! I HATE… I HATE EVERYTHING! WHY… WHY DOES EVERYONE ELSE SEEMS HAPPIER THAN ?! WHY IS THE WORLD SO VIBRANT?! WHY IS EVERYTHING SO DIFFERENT THAN ?! WHY IS LIFE SO BEAUTIFUL?! WHY AM I SO UGLY?! WHY WAS I BORN…! WHY WAS I CREATED?!"
He was constantly shaking his head in agony and sorrow, fueled by endless rage.
I see now.
I can see why she could never hate a being like him.
The only emotion that cos from my heart is…
Pity.
"That is enough, Erebus…"
And a gigantic, draconic being faced him.
"Please, no more."
The Yggdragon.
