Greed: All For What?

Chapter 1594: Other Possibilities.



ENVY laughed and assured WRATH, "Not my kind of fucking. I will turn your whole existence inside out."

WRATH was not cowered. It warned, "Be careful what you wish for. Within me is more fire. You will only burn yourself even if you succeed."

The two of them went back and forth, detailing just how well they would beat or fuck each other to death.

This is not the first time they are going on this tirade, and there used to be more than the two of them who engaged in it. But the others quit after the first thousand times. They got bored of it. Only these two are willing to continue.

It could be that they truly hate each other or that this is better than doing nothing. Either way, they will continue until someone interferes to stop them.

LUST is usually the reasonable one, but it was GLUTTONY who stepped forward to stop them this time around.

It said, "Look, the darkness has cleared a little bit. It means the two realms have moved closer. Our wait will be over soon."

LUST has said this many times in the past, and it was all a bluff. But this time GLUTTONY is right. The darkness in the hole in the sky has indeed cleared up, and they can see the other realm through it.

There is still a barrier between the two realms, so no one can go through it yet, but this means that the realms have aligned. All that is required is a fusion of their spatial coordinates for the barrier to disappear. Then they will be able to move across the two realms.

All the demon gods and demons focused on the realm rift that was about to open. They are all focused, even though they know that they might die. This is because they are about to do something that has never been done in the history of the abyss.

"So many types of new food," GLUTTONY said wistfully.

ENVY was also distracted. It said, "So many new things to envy."

WRATH joined in, "So many new people to be angry at."

LUST said, "I can't wait."

But they had to wait. No matter how eager they were, the fusion has been going on for seven months now. It will probably need seven more months before it is done.

WRATH got frustrated after an hour more of waiting. It groaned and complained for the 11394th time. "This is still too slow."

Even Aeternus felt the same. It is truly too slow. He understands that the fusion of the spatial coordinates of two realms that are separated by a large amount of distance can't be an easy thing, but they have been waiting for action for months now.

It would have been one thing if they couldn't see the other side. They would have been content with nothing. But now they can see what they want but cannot reach it. It is a temptation too much to bear.

Unfortunately, there is nothing he can do about it but wait. That changed after a week of waiting. Something seemed to have changed in the barrier. Aeternus didn't know what changed, but he saw that there were now other possibilities apart from waiting.

So he attacked the realm rift. A black spear of Chaos energy flew from his hand, streaked through the sky, and smashed into the black hole. The Chaos energy burned the barrier. It caused it to sizzle and dissipate. Small holes appeared in the barrier, from which the fresh air of the other realm used to pass into the abyss.

The demon gods had first scattered and prepared themselves for a fight when he first made a move. But they let down guard when they saw that he hadn't gone mad enough to attack them.

Now they are excited because of the change to the barrier. Even the weak demons who were too weak to react to his actions have caught up to the fact that there are holes in the barrier. They have become so excited that they are practically hopping, as they hoped for the barrier to be burned away.

Unfortunately, the holes in the barrier healed and closed up. The flames of Chaos energy eventually went out after burning but failed to convert more matter and energy into Chaos energy.

Aeternus thought to himself, "The barrier is not made out of energy, matter, or even force. That's why Chaos energy couldn't propagate itself on it. It looks like something I have seen before."

All the demon gods turned to look at Aeternus expectantly. But he didn't bother to explain himself or attack the barrier again. They eventually turned away from him with disappointment.

WRATH attacked the barrier next. It used a whip of flaming energy to strike the barrier. The whip collided with the barrier with a loud shockwave. It was as if it had hit a mountain, not something that could melt. What's more, its whip failed to damage the barrier. Even its energy couldn't adhere to it to burn it.

The barrier was completely fine and unmoved after WRATH attacked it. Not even the fact that Aeternus's attack had reduced its structural integrity was enough to make a difference.

The demon gods were surprised when they saw the result. They turned to look at Aeternus again. This time, he folded his hands against his chest as if watching a show.

PRIDE scoffed. "Let me give it a try."

As one who doesn't think it is inferior to anyone else, it decided to attack the barrier. It did so with a golden whip.

Unlike WRATH's energy, which has the properties of a flame, PRIDE's energy has a metallic property to it. It is sharp and durable, like a weapon. But it failed to damage the barrier too.

WRATH looked at it with disdain. WRATH didn't say anything. But it didn't need to. PRIDE got the message loud and clear.

So PRIDE declared, "If I can't do it, then no one else apart from the abomination can."

A/N: PRIDE might be right about this one.
