Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 4503: Dawn IV

Inside THE Loom.

In a domain bathed by the grandeur of THE Primordial Civilization of Paradox.

WHOOSH!

The doors of a capsule hissed open with precision, releasing pressurized air in a controlled burst. The capsule itself was a marvel of advanced construction, shining with golden light that pulsed in rhythmic patterns. Its surface was smooth and seamless, composed of materials that seemed to exist between states of paradoxical matter.

From this glorious apparatus, the figure of Ambessa emerged.

Her entire existence looked utterly changed from before. Her hair now flowed like rivers of liquid gold, each strand catching light and reflecting it in impossible angles. Her eyes pulsed with an intense crimson-gold light.

Her entire existence was scintillating and shining, as if she had become a forged treasure that could only be found in the earliest, most primordial Folds of existence.

From a distance, the figure of Forge Emperor Niso approached with measured steps and looked at her with pride mixed with caution.

”How do you feel?” he asked. ”You have gotten the honor of Specialization that even I have not received yet. At this moment in time, our roles could be considered completely changed.”

Ambessa looked at her mentor and smiled warmly despite the overwhelming sensations coursing through her.

”Don’t worry, old man. I still see you as my mentor regardless of how far I go,” she said with genuine affection. ”As for how I feel... well, this is just ridiculous.”

She reached out and felt for her power with careful attention, observing the changes that had occurred. She could feel that her current Complexity and Purity had spilled past 1,000 Sextillion, or was sitting at approximately 1 Septillion.

But she was not even amazed at the sheer number of Complexity and Purity, which would have been staggering before. Instead, her attention was drawn elsewhere.

”My Complexity and Purity is currently high,” she said slowly, searching for words. ”But...”

She almost could not explain the sensation properly, as if words were insufficient for what she was experiencing.

In front of her, Forge Master Niso smiled with understanding and said, ”You are now an Uncertainty Paradox. You carry with you the building blocks to The False THE. Complexity and Purity will matter less and less as you head towards anything that has the distinction of THE.”

He gestured to her transformed body.

”The biggest thing for you to receive from this Specialization should be THE False Uncertainty Paradoxical Spine, packed with the complete automatic utilization of 9 Principles relating to Paradox. Get familiar with it as afterwards, they will have you meet with the other leaders on exactly how things would be unfolding for the missions outside of THE Loom.”

Forge Master Niso had just finished saying this when in the next moment...

HUUM!

Blazing auras could instantly be felt approaching from the distance. The sleek laboratory-like white-gold domain they were in had its doors opened in the far distance, and the auras of utterly terrifying entities began to pour in like a tide.

Shockingly, Axiom Architect Surion, who held a terrifying amount of power and authority, was actually moving in the back as multiple others were leading in front of him.

Ambessa and Forge Master Niso were astonished by this reversal of expected hierarchy. They recognized some of the faces of the entities that were walking in, distinguished figures within the Shelters of THE Loom.

One of them was an entity that Axiom Architect Surion had mentioned before, when they were initially deployed as avatars outside of THE Loom. They were looking at Paradox Anax Belial!

An entity with the designation of The False THE!

And shockingly, beside him were two other entities who carried the same terrifying designation.

One was a woman with an extremely icy gaze, her entire body surrounded by frost that made the air crystallize around her. Even with her recent transformation and elevation, Ambessa felt like this woman, this Early Creature, could crush her with her gaze alone.

Ambessa searched her memory rapidly, matching the face to information she had been given. This should be Elemental Anax Poana!

The other False THE here was wreathed in purple storms as lightning and thunder boomed around his muscular body in continuous displays. His bronze skin looked like polished metal, and his frame was built like a celestial statue carved by master artisans. Currently his gaze was also cold and focused, but this Elemental Anax, Ambessa did not recognize from any briefings.

She only managed these brief glances before Axiom Architect Surion introduced the three False THE to them with a sense of calmness and deep respect.

”Ambessa, Forge Master Niso, allow me to introduce Paradox Anax Belial, Elemental Anax Poana, and Elemental Anax Theron,” Surion said formally. ”They have come with urgent directives regarding operations outside THE Loom.”

Ambessa inclined her head respectfully, trying to read the situation. After a moment of tense silence, she cautiously asked with careful words, ”To what do we owe the pleasure of having the presence of such distinguished beings here? Surely the issue of the forces outside of THE Loom has not progressed to warrant your personal attention and intervention?”

At these words, she felt the expressions of the Elemental Anax pulse with something dangerous. She quieted down immediately, sensing she had touched on something volatile.

What the hell had happened with the Living Elementals to make them act like this?

As she was processing this development, Elemental Anax Poana stepped forward with measured grace. Her voice was cold and absolute when she spoke.

”The entity known as Noah Osmont, the creature who collapsed your avatar outside of THE Loom, has been labeled A Sacrilegious Savage under the customs of THE Primordial Civilization of Elementals,” she said with formal weight. ”His actions and insults to our Civilization are unforgivable, with his existence deemed for absolute collapse before the emergence of The Glorious Evolution.”

She looked directly at Ambessa.

”Every single one of you that is capable of descending outside of THE Loom will be working directly with me or others to ensure the absolute collapse of this being. Is that understood?”

Ambessa was astonished at the seriousness and solemnity of it all. Her analytical mind raced with questions.

”What did he do in such a short period of time to insult The Primordial Civilization of Elementals like this?” she asked carefully.

Her question was faced with immediate coldness. Poana’s gaze hardened.

”You are a soldier. Soldiers do not question orders. Do you understand?”

...!

The atmosphere grew heavy and oppressive. Ambessa frowned at being shut down so completely, and she felt the hand of Forge Emperor Niso on her shoulder, a gentle pressure that told her not to erupt or push further.

She simply nodded and replied through gritted teeth, ”I understand.”

Elemental Anax Poana nodded with satisfaction and said, ”Good. We will begin by having you accept a portion of my power and consciousness into your existence.”

...!

Ambessa’s gaze changed dramatically at this declaration. This was something that she did not want, something that went against everything she had been building.

Her entire existence burned with Paradox as her foundation. If another foreign power permeated across her existence, especially one from a different Primordial Civilization, it would taint her Way permanently.

Could they not find another method? Why not have Paradox Anax Belial do this? Why were they all acting with such extreme measures?

She wanted to ask these questions and she wanted to have a proper dialogue about alternatives. But she felt the hand of her mentor squeeze her shoulder again with warning pressure.

She only grit her teeth harder and said, ”Understood.”

...!

At her agreement, Elemental Anax Poana gestured for Ambessa to sit in a prepared position. Ambessa complied, settling into a meditative posture.

Poana sat across from her with fluid grace, and her body began to erupt with a terrifying icy THE False Civilizational Authority of Elemental. The temperature in the room dropped dramatically as frost began to form on every surface.

She raised her hand slowly and deliberately, then tapped it against Ambessa’s forehead.

A terrifying power began to flow into Ambessa’s existence like a flood breaking through a dam!

As Poana maintained the transfer, she turned her head towards Paradox Anax Belial without breaking concentration.

”Brother Belial, I will leave it to you to get all the others ready as well,” she said with calm authority.

...!

Belial, the terrifying being surrounded by swirling Paradox authority, smiled with an eerie expression that didn’t quite reach his eyes.

”Of course, Sister Poana,” he said smoothly. ”The weavings of Paradox are here to help all other Civilizations within THE Loom. We will rectify the wrong that has been committed and ensure that the Sacrilegious Savage attains their proper end.”

...!

With such words hanging in the air, Ambessa watched through increasingly blurred vision as her existence buzzed with conflicting authorities.

Belial hummed a tune without words as he left the domain with smooth steps.

Her gaze flashed coldly as she felt even more power of THE False Civilizational Authority of Elemental flowing into her existence in continuous waves!

She could feel it spreading through her pathways, integrating with her being in ways that would be permanent and irreversible!

Terrifying and profound changes were occurring in this small subsection of THE Loom.

And elsewhere, in a domain of absolute Elemental authority, a terrifying force felt the establishment of their curse through vast distances. THE Living Elemental observed something that should not have been possible.

The entity the curse was attached to, the lesser pathetic entity that should have collapsed within seconds, had actually not collapsed this whole time.

So this terrifying force, this being with a complete THE distinction, prepared another response in case the Sacrilegious Savage continued to persevere and did not collapse their existence as intended.

Resources were being mobilized. Agents were being prepared. Plans were being set into motion.

It was a moment where a spark had been lit in the darkness.

And a glorious fire was about to rage across Observable Existence!
