Chapter 310 - Opposite Forces
"You are not me" Said Alfonso.
He looked at his sides.
"This destruction, this insanity, I wouldn't go this far to achieve power! Even if I become the most powerful being in the world, what is the use if I have to kill everything and everyone!?" Asked Alfonso.
The other Alfonso only looked at Alfonso like he was looking at a fool.
"Has your stay in this body hasn't taught you anything?" Said the other Alfonso in laughter.
"Destruction and power come by hand, you can't become the sovereign of something when other people don't fear you! As we like to say, if history has taught me something, is that fear… is a powerful tool to govern, however, fear is not enough, we also need power, enough power so NOBODY will ever question our authority!" Said the other Alfonso.
Alfonso looked at the other Alfonso.
"You want to deny it" Said the other Alfonso in sarcasm.
"But you can't, because your head tells you that I am right" Said the other Alfonso.
A picture of earth appeared behind the other Alfonso.
Pictures of the most powerful nations and the most powerful authorities displayed in front of Alfonso.
"Every powerful nation in the world based their power in destruction and fear" Said the other Alfonso.
"The United States of America, China, Japan, Brazil, Germain, and countless more examples" Said the other Alfonso.
"Why do you run from power?" Asked the other Alfonso.
"I do not run for power I only try to not rely much on power" Said Alfonso.
"Because power corrupts, right?" Said the other Alfonso.
"But, without power, you wouldn't be here today, you are not that naïve to think otherwise, correct?" Said the other Alfonso.
Alfonso looked at his other self and made a sight.
"I agree, power is necessary" Said Alfonso.
"However, fear isn't!"
His other self was taken back.
"Fear is a way to oppression, oppression… is only one method to govern, it isn't what I want for my people and for myself" Said Alfonso.
"You are just trying to use nice words to deny the most effective and prove it's way to do things" Said the other Alfonso with anger.
"Maybe I am, however, this is my way!"
The other Alfonso looked at Alfonso for some seconds before smiling bitterly.
"You are an idealist; this isn't like us"
"This is like me" Said Alfonso.
The other Alfonso turned around and sat on his black throne.
"What are you seeing, isn't a manifestation of my will" Said the other Alfonso.
He looked seriously at Alfonso.
"This is our inevitable future"
"What?" Alfonso was stunned.
"I told you before, we are one" Said the other Alfonso.
"I say the exact same words back then, the only difference was that the one sitting here wasn't 'I', it was another person" Said the other Alfonso.
"Who?"
"I can't say it, but I can tell you this, I said the exact same thing that you did" Said the other Alfonso.
"Then…"
"If you keep going like this… my future… will be your future" Said the other Alfonso.
"The path of destruction, the path of the supreme sovereign, is our final destiny" He added.
"I refuse to believe that!" Said Alfonso.
The other Alfonso closed his eyes like he tried to remember a painful memory.
"Remember our will, don't let it get stained by the incoming events" Said the other Alfonso.
Suddenly, the world shook and the throne began to crumble.
"Whatever you do, whatever happens, remember your words, don't succumb to the power" Said the other Alfonso.
"Wait!" Said Alfonso.
"And one more thing"
The other Alfonso began to disappear.
"Don't let Demeter go to the Underworld" Said the other Alfonso.
"Wait! What do you mean by that!?" Shouted Alfonso.
However, the world didn't last for long and Alfonso was once again devoured by the darkness.
Alfonso felt that his body light and drowsy.
"I am sleepy" Though Alfonso.
He closed his eyes for a long, long time.
Or maybe not so long…
"Oy, kid, wake up"
"Hmm?"
"Wake up, sleepy prince, how long do you plan to sleep on my lap~?"
Alfonso suddenly opened his eyes, and he was stunned and disgusted that the first face he saw was Chrono smiling at him.
"If you are waiting for a kiss, I might just do it, your girly face isn't so bad~"
"FUCK!" Alfonso almost spat blood.
He instantly separated himself from the lap of Chrono.
"Do that again and I will kill you!" Said Alfonso.
"Alfonso"
Alfonso turned to look at Prometheus who was looking at him.
"Congrats for awakening your will" Said Prometheus.
"Thanks"
"Now that you have awakened your will, you have officially become a king" Said Chrono.
"A king…"
"However, you are way too weak to call yourself a king" Said Chrono with a smile.
"You…"
"It's a shame but I have to agree with Chrono on this one" Said Prometheus.
"What do you mean?" Asked Alfonso.
"Your will… it's too different from the will of Chrono" Said Prometheus with a sigh.
"Eh?"
"You see kid, my will is the path of destruction and insanity, while your puny will is the will of pace and creation" Said Chrono.
"This a bad situation Alfonso" Said Prometheus with a serious face.
"Right now, your body has two forces that are opposite to each other, given the fact that your body is still adapting to the power of Chrono, the most minimal interaction between both forces will kill you in an instant" Said Prometheus.
"Hehe, kid, I want to see how you plan to become fuse those two when you try to achieve the emperor level" Said Chrono with a laugh.
"…" Alfonso was speechless.
"Alfonso, it will be a good idea if you don't use your will power for now, don't forget that your body its constantly using the power of time, if you use your will, then both powers will, at the most optimistic scenario, cancel each other, and, at the worst one…" Said Prometheus.
Alfonso thought hard about the situation.
"However, you don't have to so saw kid, there is good news, despite everything" Said Prometheus.
"What is it?" Asked Alfonso.
"You know that will users are separated into two kinds, right?" Asked Prometheus.
"Internal force and external force" Said Alfonso.
"Exactly, however, yours, is a little bit special" Said Prometheus.
"What do you mean?" Asked Alfonso.
"Well, it's better if you see it yourself" Said Chrono while pointing at Alfonso.
Alfonso looked at himself and was stunned.
"This is…!?"
