I ended overdoing it last night with all the stuff I did to Ismena and Acelina...
I might have gotten a bit too excited, more than usual.
Maybe it was the pent-up energy I had, or the frustration of my battle against Noah.
So I ended letting it all out on them, both figuratively and literally...
Ah, now I feel bad I overdid it, I should really apologize.
"Ugh..."
Slowly, I woke up, I haven't had such a relaxing nap in a while, to be honest.
As I woke up, I realized Ismena and Acelina, whom I had slept with, were gone.
I wanted to cuddle, hug them, and kiss them a little bit before they left to do their duties...
So yeah, a lot happened yesterday.
But the biggest thing was my battle against Noah, I enjoyed it quite a lot!
However, I also feel like we might have gone too far, he really hates me, and I can't think of a good way for him to slowly stop hating me.
I mean, I get why he hates me I ate his world's sun and then freed that sun god and provoked a whole lot of chaos.
I'm still wondering if he's so strong why he didn't just kill that god though.
Maybe the Sun God by himself had a purpose so he kept him alive...
Right, perhaps he used his powers as a resource of some sort.
He recessed were becoming a big issue for the other inhabitants though, so I think taking down all the ones I did was a good thing for the world.
Despite how angry he got, he's pretty selfish, this wouldn't had happened if he had taken care of the Recessed, the Sun God, and then taken the sun for himself instead.
But he left it all there, he thought the whole world was his own playground, and I suppose to an extent it was, living as the supreme for thousands of years must have made him get too comfortable.
No matter how cunning and intelligent you are, after so much time passes while nothing big occurs, you're bound to get a bit like this too.
Well, that's that anyways, at least I'm alive and kicking!
I'll simply have to deal with him one way or another... Thanks to my powers and Cosmic Psyche and Physique, I was able to survive such a terrifying fight till the bitter end.
And I even got stronger from that, out of my desperation more than anything, and also because I wanted to surpass my limits and go even further beyond against him.
My Soul has Evolved and Transformed, and my whole being has also become more powerful as a result.
What I did was... Well, how can I put it into words?
The moment I was about to die, while my second soul was still regenerating to become full, I used the fragmented pieces of the overpowered gauntlet and merged them with the regenerating soul.
This soul seems to regenerate in another plane of existence Noah couldn't reach with his attacks, so that made it possible for me to survive by reviving a few minutes later.
I was really hoping he would have left by then and just believe I died for a little while!
I mostly did this out of desperation, I didn't want my Egos to die because of me...
After all, the Gauntlet is formed out of Aquamarine, Mammon's Ego, Colora, Ouroboros, part of Yggdrantia, and the Wyvern Overlord.
If I would've died there, then they would have also died... so I merged them with my soul, while they were hundreds of fragments of their merged version, that overpowered Reality- Shaping Gauntlet.
Which evolved and whose power was enhanced by ten, so my soul was fully revived in that moment, and I was able to come back later.
Technically, they were alright.
Also, the trial itself grants penalties regarding acting as someone you aren't only with people of this world.
Meaning that I can also talk about other stuff within Domains as long as I'm confronting another "participant" of the Dungeon.
And it seems the Dungeon itself encourages that, for Participants to fight one another... Another thing, my powers are restricted outside of the Domains, which are called "Other Side" which can be created to protect the "Normal World" from all "Magical Things".
It's a strange Law of this World/Dungeon, but it makes it so catastrophes cannot easily occur outside of Domains, and they make sense to me I guess.
Also, despite most of them having humanoid forms, Egos count as my "Familiars" and they aren't given new backgrounds or become people of this world, luckily, so they don't have to go through the hassle.
Wall is certainly a Familiar but not at the same level as Maxima Summons or Egos, so she was given a background, becoming a magic turtle and also a "pet" of me. apparently she's a mythical beast from China that my father gifted me when I was a child, who has been protecting me since then.
She's a "Black Obsidian-Shell Tortoise", related with the Four Auspicious Beasts, the Black Tortoise, the White Tiger, the Azure Dragon, and the Vermillion Bird.
Anyways, so after what happened with Noah, the battle ended rather abruptly as my entire organization arrived to protect me.
And it seems that my father's presence made Noah rethink his plans and leave... I was fairly sure that the original version of my "father" from this parallel world wasn't as strong, right?
I mean, Frank told me he beat him and all... So what the hell is going on? How is he so strong? This is another mystery I would need to solve eventually, although I instinctively trust my father due to the background and life of this parallel version of myself that existed in this world, I still have to hold some level of suspiciousness.
Though... I guess it's not so bad to have a father, for once. I know it's stupid coming from me, but I am enjoying it...
Back to the main topic though, the Egos that ended being part of the gauntlet that was fragmented and then merged with me, including the several spiritual hearts... they're fine!
However, they changed, alongside my Soul. And well, they became a part of it too.
