Omega Summoner

Chapter 2214: Halt Operations

The being that they call the Goddess Izanami could be seen sitting in front of Tai and the others. Tai and the others reported what happened and they were getting some uncomfortable stares from the other higher ups. All of the higher ups were called upon as an entire battalion was wiped out. Vixen pointed the blame towards Amatsu-Mikaboshi going on a rampage, but they were still looking at them as if they have committed a crime.

”If Amatsu-Mikaboshi did rampage then the young ones are not to blame. I have expected that it might happen because of his personality but to think that he sacrificed an entire battalion. Prepare to send our elite guards along with my daughter.

Amatsu-Mikaboshi would have devastated the Ryujins by now and might be weakened. We will need to seal him again for a few centuries to make sure that he repents. Tai will lead them to the location of the battle. Are there any voices that wish to oppose?” The Goddess Izanami stated as she looked at everyone.

The imposing gaze of the Goddess Izanami quelled the eyes of those that wanted to pin the blame on Tai and the others. Even if they wanted to voice their opinions, they are not going to speak because they would just be ridiculed instead. This faction is where those at the top are the absolute which meant that they have no right to ridicule Tai and the others if one of the leaders are not saying anything.

”We apologize for our incompetence.” Tai stated as he proceeded to bow.

Vixen wanted to not bow her head, but she just clenched her fists as she imitated Tai. Even she knows that losing the entire battalion is a huge loss for the organization. They might be a large organization but there is a clear division when it comes to leaders. Each faction only has a number of fighters, and they lost a lot of them today.

”If I may speak, do you really think that Amatsu-Mikaboshi will be able to defeat the Goddess Nuwa?” One of the higher ups of their faction asked.

”He will be able to do that my child. I already felt the essence of the Goddess Nuwa even if it is faint. She might be trying to hide it to the entire eastern continent, but the old ones should have picked up on it. If she already assumed her divine form, then I can say for sure that Amatsu-Mikaboshi is already winning.” The Goddess Izanami stated.

”Will the presence of a demon and a Valkyrie not hinder Amatsu-Mikaboshi from achieving victory?” Another of the higher ups asked as he was in a more neutral position as he listened to the events from Taiʼs perspective.

”A demon and a Valkyrie will not be able to defeat Amatsu-Mikaboshi as he can grow his strength to that of a greater god. He might look weak, but that thing is still my shadow… Argh!” The Goddess Izanami stated as she suddenly clutched her chest as if she felt an immense pressure pouring down on it.

”Goddess!” All of them suddenly panicked as they saw the Goddess Izanami fall down and faint.

”Did somebody poison her!?” One of the higher ups shouted as if they were looking for someone to blame for the current situation.

”Is there an assassin?! Check every place inside this pavilion!” another higher up shouted which made all the guards mobilize.

”All of you should settle down.” An imposing male voice suddenly stated which displaced the panic that exploded into the room.

”Lord Izanagi!” All of them shouted in unison as they bowed deeply.

”My wife was not poisoned nor attacked.” The God Izanagi stated as he picked up and caressed the Goddess Izanami.

”If she was not attacked then what happened to her, my lord. Apologies for my question as I am deeply worried for the goddess.” One of the higher ups asked and the others were also waiting for an answer.

”It seems that the prediction was wrong. Amatsu-Mikaboshi was not able to defeat the Goddess Nuwa. It seems there were beings that influenced the future that we saw. Instead of the death of the Goddess Nuwa, it is Amatsu-Mikaboshi that has died.” The God Izanagi stated as he created a silk bed for the Goddess Izanami to rest upon.

”Does that mean that vile thing actually lost?! We can just interrogate him once he reforms in the Cave of Repentance.” One of the higher ups stated.

”Amatsu-Mikaboshi has died permanently. He will never be able to reform from parts of his divine body as he got killed using his true divine body. The divine part inside of the Cave of Repentance should either vanish or become a relic by now.” The God Izanagi stated which shocked all of them.

The higher ups in the faction are basically former gods that reincarnated into mortal bodies. The fact that Amatsu-Mikaboshi, who retained his godly essence due to his unique nature, died meant that there was a being that could kill them permanently in the eastern continent. This suddenly placed fear in their hearts as their plan to rise back into their divine selves might fail as well.

”All of you are correct in feeling some fear as even our oracle was unable to predict that the Goddess Nuwa is that powerful, but it also means that she would also have become weakened. If the Goddess Nuwa pushed herself in defeating Amatsu-Mikaboshi and even destroying his true body, then it is a good cause for us. A weakened Nuwa would make it easier for us to proceed with the next plan of killing the four divine beasts.” The God Izanagi stated.

”Uhm… my lord. May I speak?” Tai suddenly stated as he raised his hand, but it seems the other higher ups did not want him to speak.

”You are Tai, am I correct? The one Chiyou entrusted to do some of his work, am I correct?” The God Izanagi asked but his imposing voice made Tai tremble.

Tai wanted to look directly onto the eyes of the God Izanagi, but his entire body was screaming at him to just speak bowing down. If the instincts of his body are basically telling him to bow down, then he did not even gather the curiosity to look up. He knew that the being before him is not fond of him unlike the Goddess Izanami.

”Yes, my lord. This humble one is the representative of Lord Chiyou while he is resting.” Tai replied.

”Speak then, child.” The God Izanagi stated as he lessened the pressure he was emitting as if intrigued by what Tai is about to say.

”What if it is not the Goddess Nuwa that defeated Amatsu-Mikaboshi?” Tai stated which made the others become unruly because they know that a god cannot be defeated by those lower than them.

”All of you calm down and listen to the words of the child. Just because you are a god does not mean you cannot be killed by a demigod or a primordial beast.” The God Izanagi stated as he emitted his aura to quell the voices of the others since he wanted to hear what Tai wanted to say.

”Thank you for your benevolence, my lord. The question I asked earlier is due to the fact that there were three individuals to note that were not Ryujin there. One is a Leshy, the ones they call the forest guardians, and he was chosen by the Twin Gods as a representative. Another is a Valkyrie that is also chosen by the Goddess Freyja as her avatar. Lastly, there is a demon that is the Champion of the Twin Gods.” Tai stated as he did not leave out any detail that he knows.

When Tai stated the titles of the three beings that were not Ryujin, even the disrespectful higher ups had to tone down. The ones that they thought that just aided on the sidelines might have actually been the ones that truly defeated the Amatsu-Mikaboshi. All three of them have connection to powerful divine beings and even the Twin Gods. This also made the God Izanagi ponder on what truly happened.

”Even if they are beings that represent gods, they are still mortal. Amatsu-Mikaboshi is not a normal god that can be defeated as he was created from the chaotic darkness.” One of the higher ups stated.

”I have asked our oracle to look into what happened. Has she given us a response?” The God Izanagi asked the servant that just came in.

”It seems that she fainted from shock, my lord. She tried peeking into what happened, but she screamed that the Fates have sealed it off. She has yet to awaken since earlier as we believe she will be in a coma for a few days.

”Halt operations while we are not yet entirely sure of what is happening. All resources should be focused on verifying what truly happened with the Goddess Nuwa. Once we have determined it, we will reconvene and hopefully my wife will awaken by then as well.” The God Izanagi stated.

”As your will, my lord.” All of them stated with a bow.
