?Rowan had pushed away the dragon, sending it towards the ground as his Will solidified around him like an eggshell made from silver lightning. If Vraegar had remained here he would be assimilated into the Core, destroyed in both body and soul.
Rowan’s present appearance was strange and mind-bending, stripped of his material body, he now appeared like an abstract being. With this form, if Rowan was not killed his lifespan was virtually limitless, but it was a shame he could not exist inside the material universe as a result.
Without the flesh granted to him by his Ouroboros Bloodline, he had taken his time to experiment inside Vraegar’s heart, and he had forged a new body.
No longer a blob of energy, this body could interact with matter in a limited form, but where it shined was in energy-based attacks. There was no doubt that this body was countless times more powerful than his Ouroboros-based body, although he did not forget that currently, this body was in the Third Supreme Circle, while his Ouroboros Absolute’s Body was still in the first Supreme Circle.
This body resembled darkness given form, but that darkness was filled with the light of a billion stars of all colors, his hair was long and flowing and resembled the light of the moon and the stars that had been braided into silken strands. His height was impossible to discern, appearing as if he was right feet tall in one moment, but when you blinked he turned into a colossus, millions of miles in length. 𝑖𝘦.𝑐𝘰𝘮
This body could not exist in the Material Universe, and although the Forge could hold it for a while, his clock was ticking, but he had bought enough time and it was enough to complete his Destroyer.
Ignoring the roar of rage from Caine below that came into reality and affected the Forge, he commanded his Sovereigns to take their battle forms and hold back any outside interference while they began to process to complete the Core.
His Ouroboros Serpents, now an intrinsic part of the Core, were helplessly dragged from their places and were drawn towards the Core, their size and weight no hindrance to the powers being summoned here.
The Core shrank down until it was thousands of miles wide, and Rowan paused for a while for the rising Ouroboros Serpents to reach the hovering Core that was beginning to revolve while spitting out vivid purplish light, as the sound it began to emit reached a frequency that sent reverberations throughout this space.
The tails of the Ouroboros connected with the Core and they were slowly being dragged into it as they were absorbed, Rowan concentration was split between arranging the trillions of components that would constitute the body of the Destroyer around the Core while merging the blooming Will of the Destroyer into it.
The entire Forge was not just to create the Core of the destroyer, that was just the first part of the process. Although the Core was the most important component of the Destroyer, that was not the only material needed to complete the first level of this terrible weapon.
The other function of the Forge was to become the shell in which the Destroyer inhabited. The Destroyer was a Battle Fortress and the rest of the Forge were the components needed to complete that fortress.
While others may build this portion with different powerful alloys and mystical materials, Rowan’s first choice was to build the first level of the Destroyer using the Divine kingdom of gods.
It would barely be a skeleton of the first level that he envisioned, as the proposed completed version of the first level would need more Divine Kingdom to complete, at the least, a thousand more Divine Kingdoms of Minor gods were needed to fully complete the first level of the Destroyer, but for now, with the material he had, it would be enough to create a workable fortress.
He frowned as the angered voice of Caine entered his consciousness, the voice of this creature was no longer bound to the spiritual plane where he dragged Rowan’s Reflection into, but was now reflected in reality,
“Well played, but do you think this is over?” Caine’s face which was on all the eyes of the sinking Ouroboros Serpents glared at him, Rowan ignored him for now.
The faces of Caine grinned, “Then it’s time you learn, that your defeat is inevitable.”
Suddenly everything came to a stop as the eyes of the Ouroboros Serpents exploded out in a fountain of gore. Millions of gallons of golden blood erupted from their socket, all were filled with the remnants of the Will of Chaos.
Turned out that Caine would not wait for the Will of Chaos inside his bloodline to be destroyed, because he could actively wield them. Rowan soon discovered why this creature did not use this move at the start, because even as he watched the Will was slowly evaporating into nothingness, without the foundation of Rowan’s blood to hold the Will, it would soon disperse, but not quickly enough.
The Will of Chaos began to rapidly reconstitute itself in the air, as the breath of an abominable power began to ripple from it.
Caine was making a body using the Will of Chaos.
Rowan’s focus increased as he placed more of his attention on completing the merger, while noting how quickly Caine was creating his body.
The sensation of power erupting from that body was so great, Rowan knew there was no way he could battle this power and complete the Core, but the danger of this body of Caine was that it was purely made up of Will, and if he did not complete his Core, it did not matter if the Attributes of Caine was lesser than his own.
Caine would be able to destroy his half-formed Core with no issues. This might be a fatalistic move on the part of Caine, but it assured mutual destruction on both sides.
A battle of who could complete their creation process first burst out between Caine and Rowan. If Caine made his body first, he would win, if Rowan completed his Destroyer first, he would emerge the victor.
