DIE

If Leonel was being honest with himself, the situation wasn't ideal. Of these eight Incomplete Worlds, he would only really like three of them.

The first was the most obvious: the Incomplete World of the Invalids. This was their strongest world, one that was already comparable to a God Realm.

The reason this was perfect for him was precisely related to the last large breakthrough he had had in his comprehension of Destruction and Creation. That had allowed him to gain four Sovereignties, two Destruction Sovereignties, and two Creation Sovereignties. The two formed a cycle with one another, splitting into pairs and occupying one of his Innate Nodes each.

One of his Innate Nodes represented Creation taken to an extreme and ultimately leading to Destruction.

The other of his Innate Nodes represented Destruction taken to an extreme and ultimately leading to Creation.

The differences were subtle, but with both having taken on the character of two Sovereignties, the power of his Innate Nodes had reached another level entirely. Right now, even if there were higher Forces on the rankings, Leonel didn't believe that he would ever swap out his Scarlet Star Force for any one of them.

The remaining two Incomplete Worlds were attached to the Fallen God Beasts and the Owlans respectively. These worlds were obscure and not even used by these two Races as anything more than a countermeasure and a backup plan. However, they were key to the plan as they were conduits to allow communication between the Incomplete Worlds of the Invalids and the Complete Worlds of the Owlans and Fallen God Beasts.

The Fallen God Beast Incomplete World was perfect for Leonel's physique. He had already sacrificed his Northern Star Lineage Factor for the sake of increasing his constitution, and this Incomplete World perfectly filled in that role.

The Owlans World was, unsurprisingly, perfect for his Crafting. Of course, it wasn't as simple as the world representing Crafting. The umbrella of Crafting encompassed too many things for a single Incomplete World to be able to cover them all. Instead, it was more accurate to say that if the Invalids' worlds represented Destruction, then this world represented a special type of Creation, one that could breathe life into the influence of the mind.

It was a world that heavily favored Dream Force, and where the Dream Plane practically became a blank piece of paper where one could draw whatever they wanted into existence.

These three Incomplete Worlds were perfect for Leonel, and if he had a choice, he would just take them and ignore everything else.

But he didn't have a choice.

As such, he could only forego the perfect set of Incomplete Worlds and exchange them for the power that he needed right here and right now.

For the last five Incomplete Worlds he needed, he filled them with the Invalid Incomplete Worlds that he had already wiped clean, taking them in and linking them.

Leonel had already had this plan in mind the moment the portal to the God Realm was open because it was clear that at that point, the Incomplete Worlds were no longer needed. The problem he was facing was a matter of how.

He originally planned to find a chance to escape the battlefield, but then the Brazingers appeared and Aina ended up losing her Heirloom.

At that point, there was no way that he would leave his wife behind.

Someone else might have been frustrated by the turn of events, but Leonel might have changed once again, but he hadn't forgotten his promises.

There was a point in his life where he cared so little about the world around him that he felt like the only thing that mattered was his own happiness and that of those he loved the most dearly.

That was no longer necessarily the case. He had begun to feel some responsibility for the world again, especially when he heard the cries of the Northern Star that he had always taken as a boogeyman of sorts.

However… hell would freeze over before he would allow his wife to suffer the slightest inconvenience.

So, even though it wasn't the easiest path, he had chosen to take the one that would satisfy his wife, himself, and the world.

He abandoned his body, fused his soul into the Dream Plane, and contacted all of the planes at the same time.

The strength of a Life State Dream Force was already capable of communicating with the Dream Plane in these worlds. However, most wouldn't, especially not when it left your soul so vulnerable.

It could be said that Leonel suddenly entering the Dream Plane in the midst of so many Gods took balls heavier than Stars themselves. Yet, not only had he done it, he had expanded his soul across worlds, communicating with them all…

And then refining them.

The moment he spoke the words the Gods hadn't heard in generations, a humanoid figure that seemed large enough to match the Primordial Terror appeared high in the skies.

His body thrummed with lights of gold, and for a moment… he seemed to be an Idol in and of himself.

Leonel could feel the power of his Stars being drummed up to another level entirely, and though the Incomplete Worlds that he had chosen weren't perfect in every way, there was no denying their power.

His body shook, and it was then that everyone seemed to notice that Leonel's Destruction World had never vanished. It stood there, tall and proud, protecting his brothers and his wife…

Before it suddenly violently expanded.

From a few dozen meters, to a few hundred meters. Then from a few hundred meters, to several kilometers.

The true strength of Final Destruction bloomed and it no longer seemed to care about the suppression of Gods in the slightest. © 2024.

If before, the flood of power from Blackstar and Drake had been filtered through a tiny hole, the real floodgates had suddenly opened. Now, he could use their true power. "Die."
