Chapter 479: The Will of the Omniverse

—

Beyond the omniversal temporal line, the She Beyond Omnipotence sat on her chair while running a hand down Kurai's hand. She was staring at the screen in the air, which showed Neji stepping into the Source of Creation.

She rubbed her chin, "Things are too fast this time." she thought aloud. Omniscience could let her know everything that would happen, but as she had mentioned to Neji before, she kept it turned off for the most part. She liked enjoying humane limitations from time to time, it gave spice to living.

Nothing major has changed, but events have sped up. Of the three paths that the Level 10,000 Quest provided, the other possibility's Neji had chosen the Chaos Path. For him to complete that quest, the goal was as follows:

[Navigate the Chaotic Realms, where reality itself is in flux, and prove your ability to harness chaos. If successful, you shall gain the ability to manipulate chaos, chaotic weaponry, and earn the title of "Shub-Niggurath, the Chaosweaver."]

He only managed to find that place after half a dozen years of search; he was already a Demon thanks to the Godmother taking him in, and that demonic side of his aligned well with the chaotic powers he gained. He grew quite powerful, earning the title of Demon King of Light and Darkness in the following years.

But in just a single year, this possibility's Neji had succeeded in finding his quest arena. Indeed, things were going fast, and perhaps for the better.

"He didn't turn into a Demon this time, so he's weaker," she said to herself. "But that should be made up if he succeeds in this Quest and gains the title of Celestialsapien." That race of creatures were Demons, Gods, and everything else that made reality.

In the other possibility, Godmother had turned Neji into a demon before Kimi was about to throw him out of the Dreamweaver's Fortress. The demonification caused him to lose his mind further, which made Godmother disappointed. She advised Kimi to throw him out so that he could gain control over his emotions in the outside world.

When he was cast out in that possibility, he appeared in front of Fotia and her fiance just like this time. Zephyr beat him up and put a collar around him, but Neji wasn't rational enough to think that he could deposit the collar inside his Inventory, that's why he spent a longer time as Fotia's slave than the few minutes this Neji did.

Thanks to the demonification, he was madder than all time, he grew extremely mad at the Primordial's daughter and fiance for the years of slavery they brought upon him. So later after he freed himself from them, he raped Fotia out of his own will, not out of pure madness. He tormented her and found fun in it.

Thanks to all this, his meeting with Lady Life was greatly delayed. He met her after he used Fotia and threw her away, by then years had passed of his stay here. Only after Lady Life left him the same emerald ring, did he search for the Chaos Realm.

"Interesting," she shrugged as she materialized a box of popcorn and began to eat, not forgetting to feed Kurai some. "Hope quickness doesn't bring his doom."

In nowhere was Neji safe from death, it didn't matter that this was a time loop. If he died, this was his last chance, and everything would end.

Raki focused on the scene on the screen, "Let's see how long the trial takes."

Hopefully not years.

[This place looks... familiar.] Neji was familiar with the idea of Celestialsapiens, they were from a fairly popular cartoon.

Although he didn't watch it long enough to reach this far, he knew what Alien X was. Since the Omniverse was built upon the ideas originating from the Prime, it wasn't all that surprising that it was built in similar ways to some fiction.
