Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 4844

Chapter 4844: THE Primordial Paradox II

Noah stood on such a thing as he looked at the glorious visage of THE Primordial Paradox.

The ancient Absolute still maintained a heavy sense of majesty despite everything. His eyes held no fear or worry. Not even a sense of urgency pressed against his bearing. He didn’t look like someone who knew that their Claim was under attack.

He looked like someone who had made peace with what was coming and was now focused entirely on what could still be done.

"I also did not expect you...as you are now anyways."

Noah’s voice came measured, direct.

"I came here seeking to understand a bit more about the thing currently attacking you. And to understand the one responsible for it."

He met those obsidian eyes without flinching.

"You do know who is responsible for this assault on you, right?"

At such words, THE Primordial Paradox sighed.

It was a sound that held the weight of betrayal processed and accepted. His profound gaze of immense dignity and power never wavered, but something behind it shifted. Something that spoke of trust that had been violated in ways that cut deeper than any physical wound.

"Of course."

His voice remained precise, controlled.

"My dearest disciple Erwin initiated all of this. But even he may not understand what he has truly done."

...!

The name hung in the frozen air between them.

"And I have come to realise that it is unstoppable. I can only make preparations."

He turned slightly, gesturing toward the rushing waters of Gjöll that roared beside them.

"My Claim over Paradox informed me that there would be someone who might potentially assist me in these preparations if I sailed across my river. But truly, time is not on our side."

His obsidian features settled into something that might have been wry acceptance.

"Even though I was waiting here for my own aims and goals, you appear to have similar ones based upon the enemy attacking me."

He faced Noah fully.

"So. Can we get started?"

He said such words gloriously and imperiously, the bearing of an Absolute who had chosen to spend his final preparations with efficiency rather than lament.

Noah looked at this being and asked the question that mattered most.

"What exactly needs to be done?"

THE Primordial Paradox smiled at such words.

It was the smile of someone who had been waiting for that precise question.

"I have already commenced my preparations. I have isolated and hidden parts of myself in different areas throughout Helheim."

He paused, and something darker crossed his features.

"I have come to realise that even these parts of myself, stretched out across my realm, will be claimed in the end as well."

His hands clasped behind his back once more.

"In waiting here, I had thought I would come across THE Creature or THE Primordial Chaos and secure their aid in locking a part of myself away in Alfheimr or Jotunheim. Somewhere beyond immediate reach. It has to stay and persist in this time as it is a piece of Absolute. A Piece of the Claim of Paradox as it cannot be carried across time, otherwise I would hand it to you and say our goodbyes. So it needs a place to remain until it can be safe to unveil."

"And it appears that, quite paradoxically, it was neither of the two I expected."

"It is instead the one with the Claim to The First Tongue."

"So you tell me, Genesis Monarch."

"Where exactly are we heading? Ginnungagap? Muspelheim?"

BOOM!
