Void Evolution System

chapter-1866
The newest people to the Heavenly World's atmosphere, in a certain sense, were Zara and Alea. They only came out of the Sanctuary for the sake of this war, so of course they weren't ready to fight Supreme Gods. Still, they were occupying several Dukes at once and sufficiently displaying the power they worked so hard to achieve.
The Dark God could sense the existence of the Sanctuary, but he could not sense its location or what was happening inside. As such, people like them were free from perfectly created avatars born to take them down.
They were able to show the full extent of their power against opponents who'd reached the same level but were not able to counter them perfectly.
Zara and Alea's story had to be explained in a bit more detail. They were a single being, yet two. The Godbeast evolution paths of their predecessors were no longer available to them.
The entire time they were in the Sanctuary, their focus was on finding a path of their own to become the leaders of a new species.There would likely never be others like them, but their bloodline was worthy of becoming Godly.
When they progressed into the realms of Divinity, that Godbeast was partially manifested. When they reached True Godhood, that form was fully created.
They were now the first Twin Spirit Wolf in existence. This race of Godbeasts was not defined by their exact elements, but by circumstances like Zara and Alea where two souls found themselves as half of each other.
Their case was an impossibility only caused by the Divine Emperor's presence, but because they'd established this new Godbeast species, it was now possible for others to be born with similar conditions.
Twins would eventually become one, and their opposing elements would complement each other to create a supreme power. This was the nature of the Twin Spirit Wolf.
Those elements could be fire and water, time and space, or anything else. For Zara and Alea, of course, it was light and darkness.
There weren't merely a few tens of Dukes anymore. They numbered in the tens of thousands at the very least, providing ample opponents for every Divinity who stood at the same level. It was overwhelming in a sense, but Zara and Alea's presence decreased the level of danger significantly.They cruised through the battlefield like it was a safe zone. The combination of light and darkness filled the starry sky, displaying a great power that made the Dukes shiver in fear.
Damien experienced how frightening the combination of opposing laws could be when he first developed the Elemental Wargod ability. Unlike him, though, these two stayed along that path and developed their fusion to its greatest potential.
Light and Darkness held a lot of power. They had so many different meanings in so many different ways. As the most supreme laws that a common person could perceive, they became the manifestation of good and evil, of the known and unknown, and many other similar aspects.
It was ironic how Existence and Nonexistence found themselves so often mimicked in the concepts of other laws due to the interference of living beings. Each of Damien's wives had at least a piece of one of the two concepts within their techniques, and Zara and Alea were the same.
They did not have the [Void Daughter] title, but their importance to Damien made them like family. They were no less important to him than his blood siblings, after all.
With their rudimentary versions of Existence and Nonexistence, they were unstoppable among opponents of the same level. It was likely that they would never face any real opposition in this battle.
That is, if nothing unexpected happened. ***
In a lot of ways, Tiamat was similar to Zara and Alea. Only, her story played out a little differently.
As she remained in the Sacred Abyss and secretly amassed her power, she was able to learn more about her hidden past.
Right, her gut feeling was always right. She was never born as a member of the Nox Race, which was why she was always forsaken. She was believed to be unworthy to carry the true blood of the master race, so they tried to put her down.
But, regardless of their efforts, Tiamat rose. She was born in the lower universe, but she was always meant to be a member of the Foreign Races in the Sacred Abyss.
When those visions first plagued her, she almost believed that she was something like the daughter of the Dark God, but that was never a possibility.
The Dark God could not make direct contact with a person of lower status than him. Even if he artificially initiated a pregnancy in a woman, the baby born would have nothing to do with him. It would be the product of the mother's genes alone, like the reproduction process of some single-celled organism.
Tiamat could never be related to that man, which was truly a relief.
Nevertheless, the circumstances behind her birth were not normal.
She was the product of research. She was born naturally to a mother and father, but they did everything possible to turn their own bodies into vessels for the power meant to flow into her.
In that aspect, rather than parents, they were just tools. They died immediately upon her birth.
She, as a being that had barely been conceived, was transported to the lower universe where the Dark God's direct interference wasn't present.
As for why…?
Wasn't that obvious? She was a disaster project meant to bring an end to the Dark God's reign.
She was the final effort of a dying civilization that disappeared during ancient times. Even back then, there were no more than a few of them left, and they were kept alive only as toys. The efforts they made outside of the Dark God's perception were only possible because they received outside help. Still, they succeeded, and Tiamat was successfully created. She was housing an untapped potential that was only awakened when she was cleansed by the energy of the Sacred Abyss.
Tiamat's role in this battle was more important than she made it seem with her actions of patiently watching from a hidden place on the sidelines.
Actually, she was the key to ending the war. Not for Damien, but for everyone else.
Tiamat's main power was the same as it had been. Her goals and personality were the same too. Only one thing had changed.
Within the fabric of this cosmos, there was a weapon created by a portion of her soul.
The second it attacked, it would all end.
The infinite resurrection that made the Dark God's army so terrifying would be canceled. That infinite resurrection was what all of them were relying on. However, Tiamat needed to wait for the right moment. While the Dark God was so conscious of the battlefield, she could not expose her presence.
Her moment would come after Damien's confrontation with that man reached an extreme.
At that time, when he did not have the peace of mind to focus on the rest of the cosmos, she would strike.
This was not an act of revenge or retribution.
It was merely fate.
The Dark God had been playing with others for so long, and Tiamat wasn't the only one who thought it was time for him to be the one getting played.
