While the bandits were surrounding the Queen Of Thorns ship, Boss was resting on the deck of the ship with his eyes closed.
It wasn't until the other party called out his new title that he opened his eyes.
"How strange, I've only just changed my name and someone already knows?"
Boss muttered in a low voice.
He stood up and evaluated the other party: "I am Boss, what do you want?"
The leader was already impatient and waved his hand: "Trash, take your subordinates and get out of this ship, otherwise I'll take your life right now!"
Boss was surprised.
Trash …
That word really is …
Boss fell into a strange state of mind.
"How interesting, no one has ever dared to speak to me like that, even the heir of [Chaos] only dared to call me by my title, not humiliating my identity" he muttered.
Hearing that, the leader chuckled: "This daddy has been on this side of the world for countless years, I've seen plenty of idiots like you who only know how to brag"
Boss silently chuckled.
"Then you should see this for yourself"
He raised his hand and spread his fingers.
Before the leader could react, he vanished.
A second later, he reappeared in front of Boss. Boss grabbed him by the neck.
"Don't move, I'll break your neck if you do"
Boss muttered.
The leader finally realized that he had run into a tough nut to crack.
"Brother, it was my fault today, please, please let me go, we'll leave right away" he smiled and said.
"Really?"
"Really"
Boss thought for a bit and let go.
The leader flew up in a panic, activated all of his defensive measures, then hid behind everyone else.
After confirming that he was safe, he angrily shouted: "All at once, kill them for me!"
As soon as the word 'all' left his mouth, he disappeared again.
— — -he reappeared in Boss's hand, tightly gripped by the neck.
None of the defensive measures worked, and the guys who were blocking in front of him didn't even have time to react.
"It's my fault," Boss said seriously. "I forgot that humans love to lie the most."
…
The border between the Strife Zones and the Mystic Zones.
Having lost its mount, the Soul Shrieker was now in the middle of an endless barrage of attacks.
This was a saturated attack that far exceeded the normal limit. There was nowhere to hide, so he could only brace himself and endure it.
Normally, this kind of attack would overdraw the full power of the treasure and would only be released in the most dangerous situation.
Under such circumstances, the owner of the treasure could no longer care about the treasure. He could only endure the pain of destroying the treasure in order to preserve his own life.
This kind of attack, because of its ferocity, would soon stop.
But the attacks never stopped.
All kinds of offensive treasures had never stopped from the beginning to the end!
Fortunately, the Soul Shrieker had been through various situations, so it was able to deal with this kind of combat style that it had never seen before in the 900 million World Layers.
After tens of thousands of years of planning and planning, it had killed almost all the carriers of [Order].
There was one left.
This was the last one.
The Soul Shrieker trusted its own calmness.
It had never lacked patience when it came to hunting.
For now, there was only one thing left to do.
Wait.
Once all the attacks were over, I would be able to capture the last carrier of [Order].
As for these minions that tried to stop me, I would deal with them sooner or later.
The Soul Shrieker silently waited for the attacks to end.
One hour later.
Boom boom boom boom!
The Soul Shrieker endured the attacks and silently waited for everything to end.
Two hours later.
Boom boom boom boom!
The Soul Shrieker endured the attacks and silently waited for everything to end.
Three hours later.
Boom boom boom boom!
— — -it's already been three hours, why did the attacks become even more ferocious?
What's going on?
The Soul Shrieker felt itself to be a true, calm, and patient hunter.
— — -but it wasn't an idiot.
It thought for a bit, then abruptly retreated.
Using its own strength and the momentum of the attacks, it quickly left the scene of battle and returned to the Strife Zones.
Finally, it left the battle and gave up on chasing after that person.
「『Such power … I've never seen such an enemy before … I might not be able to catch up 」』
The Soul Shrieker muttered.
It could sense that the carrier of [Order] was getting further and further away from itself.
The Soul Shrieker stood still and silently thought for a while.
「『No, the Era of [Chaos] cannot be delayed any longer 」』
It muttered to itself: 「『All carriers of [Order] have been eliminated, leaving only one behind, he won't be able to do anything. I might as well start the Era of [Chaos] first, then chase after him 」』
「『Even though … this will require a certain price 」』
「『But what in this world doesn't have a price? 」』
The Soul Shrieker quickly made up its mind.
It stood in the void of space, stretching its body while shouting:
「『Come forth, come to my side, carriers of [Chaos], today, you shall receive a divine baptism 」』
A mass of grey fog manifested from nothing, circled around the Soul Shrieker, then quickly spread in every direction.
Thick fog filled the air.
Figures slowly appeared from within the fog.
These were all living beings who had been carriers of [Chaos], each of them wielding a different power of [Chaos].
They carefully maintained their distance from one another, looking at the Soul Shrieker with a look full of longing.
「『Sir, we have come in response to your summons 」』
「『Envoy, I am at your command 」』
「『I have come, your excellency 」』
These people quickly replied.
The Soul Shrieker ignored them, lowered its head, and began to chant in a low voice.
「『Come, for the sake of the Era of [Chaos], you shall contribute your strength 」』
The carriers of [Chaos] that were hidden in the fog heard its chant and began to move.
— — -to be exact, it was their bodies that ignored their will and began to move on their own.
"What's going on?"
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"Why can't I control myself!?"
"No, why is that!?"
The carriers of [Chaos] all exclaimed in shock.
The Soul Shrieker looked up and explained to its surroundings: 「『I've been making preparations in the 900 million World Layers for a long time, teaching you how to fight, helping you grow, and nurturing your ability to use [Chaos]. I originally hoped that you would become the first batch of Combatants of the Era of [Chaos] 」』
「『However — —』
「『[Order] hasn't been completely destroyed, and the difficulty of starting the Era of [Chaos] has increased. I need more power to achieve this, so you have all obtained a new honor 」』
The Soul Shrieker smiled: 「『And that is to become a part of me 」』
It opened its mouth wide, speaking in a male and female voice at the same time: 「『I need you to gather with me and enjoy this true honor 」』
「『All souls with the [Chaos] characteristic, come, become my power to start the Era 」』
The Soul Shrieker's voice abruptly reached its peak:
「『Aaaah — — – 」』
Within the fog, every carrier of [Chaos] sped up and charged towards the Soul Shrieker.
This was an eerie and majestic sight.
Hundreds of carriers of [Chaos] came from every direction and rushed into the Soul Shrieker's body. As if they had fallen into a swamp, or a bottomless pit of quicksand, they disappeared from this world.
But the Soul Shrieker's body didn't change at all.
It continued to scream until the hundreds of carriers of [Chaos] had all entered its body. There were no longer any living beings in the void of space.
Twisted runes manifested on the surface of its skin, then quickly disappeared.
「『Finally, it has begun 」』
The Soul Shrieker breathed heavily.
Countless faces of despair and struggling flashed across its body, then disappeared as if they had sunk to the bottom of the ocean.
The Soul Shrieker stood in the void of space.
It opened its mouth and uttered countless overlapping voices, almost as if countless people were chanting a holy hymn at the same time:
「『From that moment in the distant past, we were born from the destruction of all things, bearing the pain of all living beings, even the Apocalypse could not do anything to us 」』
「『The Era of [Chaos]! 」』
「『We sow your soil across the infinite void, you shall grow here and turn into an entity that rules over all 」』
Countless voices abruptly resounded, roaring:
「『And we, shall be your body! 」』
「『We shall spread [Chaos] across the 900 million World Layers! 」』
Figures composed entirely of light emerged from the Soul Shrieker's body, shattered into scattered sprites of light, and rapidly disappeared into the void of space, disappearing without a trace.
This was an incomparably magnificent scene, as if the gods were spreading their majesty to the billions of worlds.
The Soul Shrieker silently waited for all the humanoid figures on its body to shatter and scatter before it regained its calm.
「『The Era of [Chaos] has begun, and the only [Order] will soon come to an end 」』
「『This time … I will take a long detour, but no one will be able to discover me again … 」』』
It turned around and slowly went away.
