[Do not expect results which you yourself cannot produce.]
Serion's voice was heard before he cut the call, and in an instant—Lord Light froze.
"W-What…?"
He let out a word, unable to believe what had just happened.
Did… did that child just cut off communication with him?
He wondered in his head, his mind unable to comprehend this. The impossibility of such an action was simply too absolute in his mind for him to even consider otherwise. Soon, however, realization kicked in.
He… that child did cut contact on his own.
The mories of the conversation they had held in the past few hours—the one he hadn't properly noticed since he had countless other things to worry about—finally resurfaced in his mind.
His trembling, panicking voice, his commands that sounded less like commands and more like him begging for help…
Lord Light recalled it all.
The fear had consud him so much that he actually allowed a child to look down on him…
He couldn't believe it.
Slowly, he turned towards the statue at the far end of the Hall and—
"Lady Seraphielle…"
He muttered in a soft voice, as if all his panic and fear instantly disappeared the instant he took that na.
"What have I done…?"
He muttered to himself.
"I took the title of Lord Light by your command, and today… because of my short-sightedness and fear… I… tarnished it.
I let a Light Born treat with disrespect."
He spoke, his words echoing throughout the room. His remorse couldn't be clearer.
"Please,
Please forgive your child."
He begged as he bowed his head, and at the sa ti, he made up his mind.
Serion—he needed to perish.
He had let the Light Born walk over him in such a manner; it was ti to show him his place. And yes, 'Lord Light' was very much capable of doing so.
Yes, Serion was an Eternal—one of the strongest beings in the entirety of the universe—but in front of 'Lord Light', he was rely a flickering star whose life and death could be decided with just a wave of his hand.
That was who 'Lord Light' was.
The Ultimate Being—the being who served as the bridge between the Light Infinity and the Light Borns.
The being who commanded the Supre World of Light on behalf of the Light Infinity, Lady Seraphielle.
A being who was below one and above all.
That was who Lord Light was.
He wasn't particularly strong; in fact, he was not strong at all. He only had one ability—even a re Transcendent would be physically stronger than him—but…
Lord Light was a being made by the Light Infinity herself. As long as he was in the Supre World of Light, under Light Infinity's domain—he couldn't be killed.
As for his ability—
It was the ability to control and decide the fate of the 'Stars' inside the Orb of Communication.
Yes, Lord Light had power over the Orb of Communication—the power to communicate with any Star, or in other words, any Light Born, whenever he desired.
However, 'communication' wasn't the only thing his ability was limited to.
Just as ntioned before, he could control and decide the fate of these Stars. If he wanted to remove their mories, he could. If he wanted to add false mories to their heads, he could. Even if he wanted to take control over a said star's body, he could—without effort.
This was the power Lord Light held.
Absolute power—where if he wanted one of the stars to disappear, it would.
He was even capable of killing all Light Borns with just a thought. So even if he himself wasn't strong, for the Light Borns…
He was absolute.
And he was going to show that by making an example out of Serion.
He would give him an agonizing death, and he would make sure that every single Light Born—be it one who was born only a few hundred thousand years ago or the ones who had been roaming since the start of ti itself—saw it all.
With that thought strengthening in his mind, Lord Light prepared himself and singled out the star that represented Serion.
But just then—
The Orb of Communication started glowing. Lord Light noticed one of the stars shining brightly, aning one of the Light Borns was trying to contact him, and when he accepted the call—
[I see him! The Anomaly! He is right in front of !]
A voice was heard, and in an instant, Lord Light's body language changed.
Serion's matter could be dealt with later—but this was sothing he couldn't delay.
Without waiting even a single mont, he 'grabbed' the star he was talking to and decided to take over his body.
Very quickly, his surroundings changed. Now, he was no longer in the temple, but in a void, in front of another High-Level World nad Craya—and in front of him stood…
Him.
The Anomaly.
Lord Light noticed that his body was using an artifact to keep itself hidden, so the Anomaly hadn't noticed him yet—and he wanted to keep it that way.
He had no plans of letting the enemy escape, so he wouldn't make a move unless he was completely ready.
Within a few milliseconds, Lord Light acted. He once again returned to the temple and moved around a hundred stars, placing them close to the star he had just possessed.
Yes, he had forcefully teleported one hundred and three Light Borns to where the Anomaly was, despite the space being sealed in that area.
Then, without wasting any ti, he once again possessed the Light Born's body, prepared for the final battle—but—
The only thing he heard was—
"Thank you for the al."
And then—
His vision turned dark.
"Aaaggh!!"
When Lord Light opened his eyes again, he realized he had once again returned to the temple.
Yes, he had been sent back forcefully.
He thought of going back again, but then suddenly—
RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE
THUNDER THUNDER THUNDER
The universe trembled again, and in an instant, Lord Light froze.
He… he had a bad feeling about this…
