1874 Who's Will?! ll
Outside of the Kun Peng's Cataclysm Nest.
The eyes of the Pure-Blooded Primordial LEGENDS gazed at the delayed version of events playing out in shock as the first unfathomable thing was the number of enemies their geniuses faced.
The next unfathomable thing after that…was the fact that these geniuses actually amended to keep at bay the Legions of millions that even if they were out here, it would still be a disastrous war to eradicate them!
But the scenes of the figures of Katelyn, Ezekiel, and Akaris calling down shocking means played out as the Primogenial LEGENDS felt disbelief and shame at their own power.
Then…the scene of Alexander King came.
The scene of this being eradicating hundreds of LEGENDS with a mere shout!
"Impossible…!"
The LEGENDS that prided their power and thought they had the chance to ascend the True Throne felt their confidence shatter the moment that they saw hundreds of others just like them perish from a mere shout.
The visage of Akaris's brother had a serious expression as he watched on, while one particular LEGEND felt his body trembling in pure disbelief.
Brightborn.
This Royal Human LEGEND watched Noah's image that he very easily recognized as he felt a chill run down his back, thinking back to all the times he talked to this being and how he talked to him like a senior!
It seemed that the whole time…he could have chosen to erase a LEGEND like him with a shout as such a Reality was extremely difficult for Brightborn to realize.
What he didn't know…was that Noah didn't have the level of power he displayed currently just days ago when they were traversing on the Purple Endeavor.
What he didn't know was that in a matter of days, this existence had gained the strength to tear apart Primogenial LEGENDS and come to match Beta Strata LEGENDS!
All of the Primordials that currently watched the delayed version of events in shock…witnessed the current power of geniuses displayed as none of them would truly come to know just how quickly this power was gained for one being in particular!
One being whose efforts alone aided in holding back Legions of Millions.

The action of transplanting Empyral appendages onto others was rare, with some not even knowing of its possibility across the vast Realities and Dimensions.
It wasn't something that could be done freely as for the cost of merely granting Valdez Tepez a single EMPYRAL appendage, the entire lifeline and Empyral Bones, Organs, and Musculature that his father had cultivated perished.
For him to have taken the actions he had and granted this to Valdez…could it have been due to anything but the strong desire to see the Ancient Races thrive and pass down the Will of the Great Commander?!
This was the ingrained knowledge and understanding Valdez had as it was hard for him to change it even though he had received very clear and direct information that told him otherwise from the being before him.
The being…that had withstood The Thousand-Armed Monumental Defiler with his very body!
"..."
Valdez hadn't pulled out his strongest possible attack, but even this was shocking to see as after listening to the words of this being, the grimness in his eyes only grew. This…was due to nothing but destiny.
For Valdez to reach the heights he had reached, his destiny was astounding as his sense of it matched, with his soul carrying a TABOO Edict geared towards Destiny!
His current understanding of Destiny…could not deny the memories he had just received as this was what caused his stern expression to turn grim.
There was no falsehood within them.
It couldn't be possible, right?
What he believed all these years, what his father had passed down to him, it couldn't all have its purpose and reasoning torn down by the words and memories of a single being, right?
Geniuses were geniuses.
Their souls were strong as their wills were immovable, where even the fact that Valdez had looked at Noah's words and memories with reason without denying them and simply continuing to attack was rare to see!
Unlike many other prideful geniuses, the thoughts of Valdez Tepez- a Commander of Legions of Primordials…actually gave the time and benefit of the doubt to his enemy.
His will focused on his dazzling right hand that shone with power and glory.
Was this EMPYRAL appendage attached to him…really not what he thought it was?
WAA!
Destiny weaved chaotically.
With Noah's words and memories that exposed the truth, a seed of doubt and hesitation was planted.
This…was enough!
—
A consciousness was roused as its first feeling was maddening wrath and annoyance.
This was because it was roused prematurely.
It was being roused because it felt a sense of hesitation and rejection from the host it had been utilizing this whole time- a rejection that shouldn't have come at all as even if it did, it should have been years later when its goal had been achieved!
<How foolish.>
The consciousness was powerful as it came to attention fully in an extremely short period of time.
It was bathing in seas of immense darkness as with its waking, churning crimson light bloomed.
—
In the skies of the Kun Peng's Cataclysm Nest, a shocking scene bloomed as just when the doubting gaze of Valdez Tepez went to his magisterial golden EMPYRAL appendage, a crimson light of maddening authority shot from it!
The eyes of the Thousand-Armed Monumental Defiler that were cast behind him resonated and shone brightly as a shocking domain bloomed- a domain that spread out all around and seemingly stopped the very movement of time itself.
…!
With the brightening eyes of the Thousand-Armed Monumental Defiler, the eyes of Valdez Tepez dimmed as darkness overcame him, his consciousness coming to a microsecond later as in his Kun Peng form, he found himself in a space of exceeding darkness.
The floor he was on felt viscous and stable, his very soul vibrating with shock as it felt the terrifying Will that had pulled him into this space- a will that was currently covered by blinding crimson gold light that made his majestic figure of a Kun Peng look like a mere Ant!
<What do you think you are doing?>
HOONG!
With a voice so gloriously powerful and pristine that his soul became briefly lost, the will boomed inside his mind.
Tepez was quick as his genius was not for show, his eyes gradually becoming filled with pain and unwillingness as he thought of his father while looking at this unknown Will before him!
"Many years ago, my father passed down what remained of himself as he gave me the inherited Will of Commander Feng. You…are not that will, are you?"
…!
Feminine in nature.
Glorious in power.
A voice that seemed to tug onto one's very soul as it came out as if it was higher in position and power that all those below it were simply nothing!
<Your father gave his life away so that his Lineage of the Kun Pengs could survive and gain the chance of revenge against Primordials. Does it matter what Will I am if you get this power?>
WAA!
Domineeringly powerful words buzzed in Valdez's mind as his heart felt great pain!
What had his father done? Just whose will did he take in and pass down to him? If it wasn't the will of the Great Commander, should he still accept its power all the same to further his goal for revenge?
<Oh, you seem to be under the misconception that I still needed your permission after you've bathed in so much of my power.>
…!
The crimson golden light maddeningly increased as Valdez's soul couldn't help but shudder.
<Since this vessel has arrived into the vast Realities, its goal could be considered half complete. The other Vessels should provide even greater results…mmm, let's see what caused this early awakening.>
BOOM!
The moment the voice finished, the billowing crimson gold light surged like an endless wave, surging into Valdez's small figure in a terrific manner!
