Void Evolution System

Chapter 1775  Heavenly God Plane [1]

Dante continued to talk, expanding on what he had said before. However, his main point came back to one thing.

"Damien, the Firmament Board is your chance. As far as I have seen, it is entirely unique to our True Void Universe. I was only able to etch my family name onto its surface, which gave everyone related to that name a boost in talent. If you can put your full true name on there, you will attain something that the Dark God never can."

He mentioned it solely so Damien could prepare for its arrival. It would absolutely approach him soon, especially since he was already stronger than Dante.

When it did, if he could gain the most possible benefits, then his path would be secured.

The lower universe was no more. Damien couldn't access it, so it was a shame that its benefits couldn't be reaped by him.

Still, Dante didn't just talk about the lower universe so he could tell his story and explain how the Boundless Samsara Physique tied together his broken timeline.

He mentioned it because Damien didn't understand just how many legacies Dante had left there.

Many of them were for Damien's sake, but many more were there because he wanted to leave a remembrance from each life in the folds of reality.

If those legacy sites were properly utilized, then one could become a God within the lower universe before even ascending. It was a monstrous level of resources, techniques, and plenty of other things that could easily turn an ordinary person into a Divine.

However, as Dante knew how dangerous it was to leave such legacies in open places for anyone to find, they were all hidden in the deepest recesses of the universe.

Grand Heavens Boundary was gone. It had been destroyed by the tests of time. Damien could only save the worlds within and have his Sanctuary's Universal Core devour the one that wanted to die.

He couldn't save the universe itself.

When he told Dante this, he thought it would elicit disappointment, as all of his hard work had been destroyed.

But Dante didn't respond like that at all.

"Do you think I didn't prepare for such a situation? Every legacy of mine is connected directly to the Universal Core. If it is as you say and your own Universal Core devoured that one, then they will all be present in your personal Sanctuary as I left them."

It was a bit nonsensical to be so thorough, but only when the universe one lived in wasn't always on the verge of destruction.

Grand Heavens Boundary was the last part of the lower universe that still existed. It was the literal boundary between the lower universe and the Heavenly World. If Dante existed there since it was still a part of a larger universe, then he would have been aware of its eventual fate from long ago.

Damien didn't ask him why he didn't do anything about it. Even back then, Dante had lived for a period of time that would turn anyone else insane. He wasn't of the mind to solve other people's problems. He was too busy preparing for a return to the Heavenly World and creating a path for his son to walk.

How was he supposed to know that the Dark God had prepared for him?

It truly was unfortunate. If things went a little differently for Dante, then he would be standing in the position that Damien currently held.

He didn't mind, since it was his son who surpassed him, but it was still a shame.

Nevertheless, Damien could sense Dante's subtle desire to live vicariously through him.

He wasn't put off by it. Rather, from his childhood, he always wanted to make his father proud.

That emotion turned into a burning desire to surpass him when it was tainted by malice. Now that he and Dante had made up, it was able to return to its original form.

Damien wanted to show Dante the future that was robbed of him.

'The Heavenly God Plane comes first, and the Firmament Board comes second.'

It was enough to be a clear game plan. Damien spoke with his father for a while longer. They went from serious topics into more casual conversation as they closed the gap of a hundred years that stood between them.

They didn't have a hard time at all. Dante and Damien were already pretty similar people. Damien grew up to be the spitting image of his father. Without hostility and with joint effort they connected over many things.

When Damien left that room, he had a smile on his face.

He understood why his mother looked so happy. The feeling of having a complete family after years and years of being apart or separated by circumstances was unreal. Even Damien, who was becoming more indifferent to his humanity, was reveling in its warmth.

He was definitely glad to be home. He was even more excited for August to visit.

'Speaking of… I guess the Holy Dragons became fodder.'

It was a bit unfortunate, but if they followed Rose to the palace, then that was their only fate.

After all, this was a place that was ruled by an Unrecorded. No matter how Supreme they were, what could they do against Dante?

If he pulled out a universe like the one he showed Damien, then they had to have died in a single instant. That kind of pressure couldn't be resisted unless one had control over one's own "Existence."

There was a bit of disappointment in Damien's mind when he realized that they'd just vanished, but what could he do about it?

They died when August was still fighting for the crown. They died with their existences wiped from this world, so the news didn't even reach the clans they supported.

'Well, it was going to happen anyway. The Fate in Arulion was recaptured by the crown when the artifacts were taken out of the realm, so their lifespans were doomed to end.'

That was why Damien knew they would chase the artifacts to the palace despite the risks.

They chased life with such ferocity that they ran right into the jaws of death.

The only disappointing thing was that August wouldn't have any Holy Dragons to use as training dummies, but Damien could find a solution to that problem if he needed to.

Putting all of that aside, Damien returned to his own abode where Rose was waiting for him with her arms crossed.

"So, August Void, huh."

Those were the first words he heard.

He smiled wryly.

Right, there was that.

His wives didn't know that he now had a son.

As for how he would explain it…

…well, it was simple, right?

***

It was, but it took a lot of time. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Damien wasn't the same young guy anymore. He was more than content with what he had, so the chance of him coming back with a new wife was nonexistent at this point.

Rose didn't doubt him. She knew it well. Just…it was definitely something she needed to know, wasn't it?

She sat Damien down and heard the whole story about what happened in Arulion.

She definitely nagged him about August, but rather than criticism, it was more along the lines of…

"Why didn't you bring him home? Are you telling me he doesn't even know that you're married?!"

Damien did mention his wives to his son, but it was always in passing so…

'...I don't really know if August knows they exist?'

Rose was certainly pissed about that specific aspect.

But, it seemed like most of her feelings were directed elsewhere.

By the time they finished talking, she was already staring at him intently.

"...what is it?" Damien asked as he sensed something off.

"No more delaying," Rose responded without giving him a chance to say anything else.

"We're making a baby."
