2210 I Am the Kingmaker! II

"...Did you catch my name from the history of the past True Emperor?"

His voice retained its nobility and ancientness as he spoke, his body emanating utmost power as he now spoke out calmly.

This being knew himself very well, and he also knew where he would have mentioned himself and his identity across his history in these Planes of Existence!

And this time was with the last Key that had spurred and put many more things in motion.

Desiderius had a calm smile as he thought of this, his voice echoing out amidst the decimated Reality.

"Who am l...this is but an easy question that you should know the answer to, O True Emperor of Quintessence."

WAA!

"I am..how do they say it? Ah, yes. I am a Kingmaker. I forge kings and True Emperors in these Planes."

...!

"I crown True Emperors..and I steered the gazes of the so-called Ancestors away from easily perceiving the True Emperor of Destiny and even you. I..crowned you."

BOOOM!

Torrential waves of authority emanated out at such grand statements.

Kingmaker!

The one that crowned Kings and Emperors!

Such slanderous words were released from this being as Noah's Will gazed on coldly.

He didn't have an outburst or react in any way.

He thought of OPPENHEIMER's path and how this being was connected to Desiderius, where his words may be true for the accession of the True Emperor of Destiny!

But himself? The True Emperor of Quintessence did not become one through the means of others!

Noah knew of the perils he faced and overcome to arrive where he was today as when this being said this, he didn't even engage as he asked again for what was truly important.

The surroundings buzzed with Noah's voice as if it was Reality itself speaking out in the surroundings.

And the air of nobility and ancientness around Desiderius only increased as he floated like an unshakable titan in the void of space, his aged voice ringing out.

"My goal here...is the full destruction of the 9 Minor Planes, this one here included."

His majestic hands waved to the surroundings of the Niflheim Dimension as he continued.

"I have a duty to make sure that when the veil of the void descends, the Major Plane of Existence that your so called Ancestors stemmed from...i need to make sure that they fully re-impose the bindings of their Natural Laws onto those who dare to gaze towards our Lineage.

A straightforward reply!

It was Desiderius giving the newly risen Emperor that had escalated things to this point recognition enough to simply answer him on something so simple!

And the pondering voice of the True Emperor of Quintessence gained a bit of sharpness as he questioned.

The waters were tested.

The True Emperor of the Age of Genesis had said that the NOBLESSE were clear enemies, no matter what their intentions seemed!

Now, Noah was affirming this for himself.

And the answer was clear.

"No, O True Emperor of Quintessence."

HUUM!

The fabric of Reality pulsed as a desolate aura emanated from the NOBLESSE shining with Obsidian grandeur.

"Just like how you were able to undo what your Ancestors did, they can also undo what you are currently doing. My aim is not to re-impose bindings on them now only to have them suppress the Major Plane of Existence again. It is the complete destruction of all the Minor Planes that guarantees my work here..even the ones you have displaced and have hidden. I will have to trace them and erase them as well, so I do thank you for bringing them all together."

WAAA!

The future could play out in a myriad of paths.

And now, many possible Paths shattered as only a single one was presenting itself.

Desiderius seemed to know this very well as his ancient titanic gaze turned upwards again as he voiced out.

"I had a great relationship with the True Emperor of Destiny. I don't see why we cannot be the same. You can end the Cycles of the Ages and reign in the Major Plane of Existence as the last True Emperor of these lands.The Minor Planes of Existence will have to fall, this is something you cannot change."

<...>

As if to show what he meant with his words, his body that was releasing waves of desolation pointed to the vast stretches of Niflheim from afar as tendrils of NULLITY began to form all around him!

"You were the last Key that I waited for. Your compliance as a key though, is not mandatory. And I do not offer alliances twice. So what shall it be, OSMONT?"

HUUM!

Serene waves of Destiny and Providence flowed out.

An offer was made in the Age of Destiny as one being had made a choice.

Once more, an offer was made in the Age of Quintessence as here as well..a choice was made!

From the silent foldings of Reality, the voice of the True Emperor of Quintessence emanated out with unshakable strength and valor!

Simple.

As if this would be the only result!

"Mmm..."

Desiderius shook his head at this as if it was a pity.

"Even with the utilization of all the Authority of this Age, you could at most expand a Boundary to the Fourth Boundary Layer. And that is if you're somewhat talented.It is a pity when beings who could rise to greatness are presented with the opportunity, but you rely on emotions more than logic. It is why your Ancestors left behind this weakness all those years ago as it comes to bite them in the back now even if they have learned and are trying to cut it off currently. And it is why a Key like you..will never be able to open any more doors."

BZZZT!

Immense waves of NULLITY as if it was an endless sea about to surge out erupted from this being.

If these waves were released, they would no doubt irreparably decimate the Niflheim Dimension and ruin whatever remained of its Source!

Desiderius flexed his power and made his move.

And the True Emperor of Quintessence..also made his move to save this Dimension!
