Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 4097

Chapter 4097: The Purest Hunger! I

Her abyssal eyes narrowed slightly.

“But who has so much time to know the true history of what happened back then? And more interestingly, why do they keep adding their own little flourishes? The version you know has drama, betrayal, clear heroes and villains. Reality was messier. Less satisfying. More… paradoxical.”

…!

Oh.

Oh!

Noah felt his understanding shifting.

The stories of the Earliest Folds, the histories he’d been told…how much was truth and how much was narrative crafted for purposes he didn’t understand?

The being before him had actually been there. Despite her fragmented memories, she was perhaps the most reliable source about what had truly occurred.

“What if I were to still assert,” Noah said, testing, “that she is the resurgence of THE Living Order, and in a matter of days, she would fully awaken?”

Khor shook her head with the patience of someone explaining why water was wet.

“Is the rise to become one of THE Living Existences so easy? If it were, wouldn’t every ambitious being have claimed such distinction?” She gestured toward Sigrid with her tiny hand. “Whatever awakening your bundle of potential undergoes, it won’t simply grant her THE. Not truly. It might increase her potential toward it, certainly. But something much, much more would be required. THE isn’t claimed…it’s earned through transformation so fundamental that existence itself must acknowledge it.”

Noah considered this, then decided to reveal more.

“What if, not long ago, I had instructed this potential Living Order to give part of her Everything to an Inevitability? She gave her Disorder, and that Inevitability was captured by someone else who extracted it. That someone now claims to be on the path to become THE Living Chaos after he took in the Disorder that she left behind.”

Two reactions dominated the Shore.

“What?!” Sigrid’s voice cracked with shock and disbelief as if she wanted to know who had done such a thing!

Khor’s eyes turned cold enough that the Shore’s eternal brightness actually dimmed, as if night had suddenly remembered it was supposed to exist here.

…!

It was terrifying.

“I shouldn’t get so emotional,” Khor said, though her tone suggested emotions were exactly what she was experiencing. “But who is still seeking to kill Inevitabilities? Have they not suffered enough? We were hunger made manifest, not evil given form.”

She took a breath that seemed to pull warmth from the air as she continued.

“As for taking the Disorder from a bundle of potential, that wouldn’t make them THE Living Chaos. Any new THE is even more impossible than maintaining an established one. Whoever did this will have an even more arduous journey than your bundle here.”

Her expression grew more intrigued than angry.

“What’s truly interesting is that this creature could manipulate and extract Everything. That’s something only Inevitabilities should be able to do…or Creatures that have attained an extremely high level or unique type of complexity. I’m more curious about how this entity knew to do that than their claims about becoming THE Living Chaos.”
