Chapter 755: Fate
The Pond within the new Pce became an even more fortified and impregnable space. Its security surpassed even that of the main entrance, akin to the imprability of a highly guarded treasury.
The Rebel Gods responsible for constructing the new Pce may not have fully grasped the significance of the pond, but they were well aware of its importance to Gabriel. The entire Pce was purposefully designed and built to safeguard this precious body of water.
Even Janus wasn''t able to teleport inside the ball. But it had less to do with the security of this ce and more to do with the nature of the pond itself. He couldn''t pass through the door because the pond messed with the spatialws of the ce.
Additionally, he found himself unable to open the door due to it being securely sealed and requiring a specific ess that he no longer had. This entire pce was a stranger''s ce to him now, that treated him like a foreigner.
Janus, being in a hurry, didn''t care about the method he used. Since the easy methods didn''t work, that only left one method.
....
A thunderous noise reverberated through the entire pce. The door was forcefully thrown open as if they had been impacted by a powerful explosion.
Janus walked inside the hall, stepping over the broken door pieces that were lying on the ground. Since the door couldn''t be broken, he simply had to break them open, and that''s what he did.
Janus walked inside the hall, stepping closer to the Pond. As he stood next to the pond, looking down at the chaotic water of the pond that used to be peaceful and tranquil.
Albeit the pond wasn''t tranquil anymore, but Janus had a look of relief on his face. His heart finally felt a sense of calm.
"He is alive..."
What he worried about the most was that his nephew and his sister inw were killed in the attack on the Pce and the destruction of this ce. But he was able to confirm that Caen was alive! And if he was alive, he felt that his sister inw was probably alive as well.
He felt that they had managed to escape. His assumption was correct, albeit he didn''t know that his assumption got one thing wrong. Only Caen was alive, but not his mother.
Janus finally came out of his daze, paying attention to other things. While most people were unaware about this pond, Janus understood it all too well.
It was a pond of fate... Something that was iprehensible for many, and beyond thews of this universe.
The Pond was not a part of this universe, as it had been brought back by Janus'' Elder brother.
Janus had no knowledge of where his brother had discovered this peculiar object, but one day he unexpectedly arrived with it and presented it to Janus.
Ever since Janus receive this Pond, he had been trying to study it, and understand all its abilities. From what he was able to grasp, the Pond was something akin to a prophecy circle, albeitrgely different as well.
The Pond had the power to reveal fragments of present and future events, albeit in a cryptic and abstract manner.
In the past, Janus would spend hours staring into its depths, deciphering the hidden messages and symbols that swirled within its waters. Unfortunately, he only rarely managed to decipher the meanings.
The more he delved into its mysteries, the more he realized that the Pond held immense potential, beyond what he could have ever imagined. It seemed to possess a connection to something beyond the understanding of gods.
The pond still had the same four fishes that he remembered, but the four fishes weren''t floating free of each other''s influence. If anything, two of them were moving in the same direction, often hitting each other.
Seeing the phenomenon, Janus realized that something big was happening. And he had a feeling that it was rted to his nephew and Gabriel. It wasn''t just a small conflict anymore, but it appeared as if it was a battle to death.
A battle between his nephew and Gabriel? The thought itself made him frown, especially since he hadn''te across Ezekiel in the realm of gods.
his nephew!
Janus nced at the pond onest time. He reached out his hand, From the two portraits in the main hall, it was clear that Ezekiel and Gabriel were working together. And if Ezekiel was fighting his nephew, that meant Ezekiel was there as well! At this point, it wasn''t a battle that his nephew could win!
No matter how much Caen hated his uncle, Janus still loved him just as much. Although Janus didn''t want his nephew to be the next King of the Gods, but he also wasn''t going to have anyone kill his nephew!
Janus nced at the pond onest time. He reached out his hand, cing his finger in the pond, closing his eyes.
After a few moments, he opened his eyes. He had a look of understanding on his face, as if he had discovered the ce where the battle was taking ce.
There was no way for him to know the exact ce of battle, but through the pond, he was able to discover the location where the fate itself was breaking apart.
He stood up and left the hall. After he was out of the Pond''s Restriction, he teleported, appearing above the Pce.
A Spatial Portal opened before him. He was going to save his Nephew!
*****
The gods who had chosen to align themselves with Caen, feeling the urgency of the situation,unched a coordinated assault on Gabriel.
With a collective burst of divine power, they unleashed a barrage of celestial attacks, each one aimed at overwhelming Gabriel and his newly forged sword.
Gabriel, now wielding his dual-bloodline sword, met their onught with unwavering determination. Although the attack came suddenly while he was in the middle of battle with Caen, he wasn''t surprised. It was as if he was expecting this.
With a flick of his de, he created a protective barrier of crackling lightning, deflecting the divine onught that threatened to engulf him.
The sh of divine forces illuminated the dark void, creating a breathtaking spectacle that rivaled the cosmic dance of Gabriel and Caen.
