Crown of Chaos

Rushing up the cliff, staggering, Aaron threw his body into the air.

The rain hit his face, black and thick, chaotic and crazy.

The giant giant in the sky has always stared closely at this tiny existence. In his eyes, everything in the world is insignificant. It is, and only, this tiny existence that has aroused his interest.

He wants to have him.

The tentacles on the head of the incarnation of the Old Ones kept twisting, and the pillar of flesh turned up and down. Each squirming tentacle expressed the master's joy. He stretched out his hand and chanted an incomprehensible language.

The small human being and the giant beast standing hundreds of meters above the sea stopped at the moment when the two sides were about to collide.

Aaron felt as if his body had hit a wall, and the madness that hit him directly engulfed his consciousness. The ultimate chaotic energy from the depths of the stars broke through all his mental defenses in the blink of an eye. The terrifying scene unfolded in front of his eyes like slow motion, and the ocean-like flesh and blood merged into a demonic pillar, wrapping him in it.

Aaron's body began to fall, but at an extremely slow speed. After this impact, all the bones in his body made a heart-wrenching scream, as if blaming Aaron for why he had stepped into such a dangerous situation. Because the curtain of reality was torn apart in front of his eyes, the Old Ones deliberately wanted to show the power of higher-dimensional existence in front of him and show the true madness.

He was trying to talk to him.

At first, Aaron could not understand this conversation because it was language from a higher dimension.

But the power of Slaanesh spun wildly, and the divine spark seemed to be ignited, emitting the most brilliant fireworks, and the power of the Dark Prince spread throughout Aaron's body.

Then, the words of the Avatar of Cthulhu were understood.

"You are so insignificant in front of my power, Traveler." said an ancient voice, which may be older than the universe.

Aaron's body floated in the void, and the voice in his head became louder and louder: "Become my Star Familiar, Traveler, I am here because of you."

"I don't welcome you at all, the old ruler." Aaron said in a low voice. His body maintained a slow falling speed. He raised his head and looked at the giant giant that covered his entire sight: "Because The appearance of you means disaster, and many people will die because of you."

"I don't understand." The Old Ones were very puzzled: "Do you feel so emotional just because of some insignificant lives? Just like this, do you want to sacrifice yourself and come to me for these low-latitude lives? ?”

"Don't you have any idea of ​​the disaster caused by your appearance?" Aaron said impatiently: "You have caused thousands of deaths. If I don't stop you, the number will be even more."

"I know, I don't care." There was no fluctuation in the words of the Old One. His image was constantly changing. Sometimes it was a giant in the deep sea, sometimes it was chaos in the depths of the universe, and sometimes it turned into a human being. : "There are more than 7 billion species of intelligent life forms that I have observed and recorded, and humans are just one of the more numerous species. Even if the entire race is destroyed because of me, what impact will it have?"

"Just like in this universe, I am called Cthulhu, but in other universes, I have other names. They are just aspects of me. To you, I am just what appears when you look at me. Reflection.”

Beneath the incarnation of Cthulhu, its huge body continued to stretch out of the sea, gathering into pillars of flesh and blood rising straight into the sky, its surging tentacles waving to the sky in ecstasy.

"Yes, you are right." Aaron nodded heavily.

God knows, but God doesn't care.

This is divinity.

Many people have many explanations for divinity. This is a topic that humans and even all intelligent creatures have debated for a long time.

What is divinity?

The most general summary is that God knows, but God does not care, God has ideas, but God cannot explain.

Most of the gods in the kingdom are personal gods. They have their own joys, anger, sorrows and fears. Although they are aloof, they still have rules to follow. Therefore, there is a saying that the gods are just more powerful beings than mortals. .

Only now does Cthulhu truly reveal the tip of the iceberg of divinity—God knows, but God doesn’t care.

This is why they are truly terrifying.

"You have your thoughts, and I have mine." Aaron continued: "It is impossible for us to understand each other. I am a human being and you are the Old One."

"Is this the reason why you chose to become a human being? Traveler?" Cthulhu finally seemed to understand a little bit of Aaron's logic: "Voluntarily became a lower race?"

"To you, human beings are just an ordinary species in the universe, but to the humans here, their lives are everything to them." Aaron said: "You have a reason to come, and I have a reason to stop you. The reason is that simple.”

"You're so interesting, human." The scarlet giant eyes looked at Aaron: "You should obviously learn a more correct way of thinking, but you are afraid of avoiding the way to embrace the true power, leaving only your body. The human soul, you call it virtue, you call it faith, but you never realize your own insignificance.”

"You rushed to me desperately and were prepared to sacrifice. Is it really worth it?" Cthulhu's will is still so calm.

"Of course, it's worth it." Aaron didn't say any more. He mustered up all his strength. Tzeentch and Slaanesh, the two divine sparks jumped together. The power from Chaos finally broke free from the shackles of Cthulhu's incarnation, and the blue light It combined with the purple light to form two spirals of light, covering the Son of Chaos.

"I also have something to tell you! Listen to me!" Aaron shouted angrily.

"Every emotional fluctuation is a new experience, every change represents a new kind of fun, and every attempt means an increase in the power of chaos."

"Feel the fun, feel the changes, feel the reality and chaos of the universe, and make all the impossible possible."

"This is me, the Son of Chaos!"

"Their lives are the most precious treasure to me!"

Aaron's body turned into a meteor, heading straight for Krasin's face!

Two phantom lights enveloped Aaron and hit the surface of the incarnation of the Old Ones, and Aaron's body began to burn.

"So do you think you can defeat me?" The Old One just raised a hand, and the dark power from the deepest part of the stars stopped Aaron.

His body was melting, and flesh and blood was peeling off his body.

"How will you know if you don't try?" Aaron forced himself to look directly at the projection of Cthulhu. His eyes were firm, powerful, bright, full of determination and perseverance. He kept moving, even when he knew he was defeated. , but he also moved forward bravely and sacrificed his life.

As he continued to move forward, finally, the divine spark in his body was lit to the extreme!

The power of Slaanesh is completely opened, and the sky is filled with purple energy.

For a moment, Aaron's consciousness fell into a trance, and he found himself in a brand new place.

In an illusory and chaotic space, in a great six-story ring-shaped palace, a huge lazy figure was sitting on his throne, looking at Aaron.

That beautiful and terrifying thing that snakes through infinite pain and pleasure.

"You finally understand my true meaning, my dear~" Two bright purple eyes stared at the Son of Chaos. His voice was composed of a male voice, a female voice, and an animal voice: "I am so touched, I am really So touching!”

"My brothers have all shared their power with you, but you, my dear, you are only devoted to me. I am so happy. You are so single-minded and obsessed that it almost makes me hate you~"

"I'm not here because I like you." Aaron said casually, standing at the foot of the steps. .

"Oh~ come on, little Aaron, we all know that you can't lose us, you need our strength, just like I need you. You see how much I cherish our friendship." The Prince of Darkness screamed : "You are the best! I don't care about others, I just like you!"

"Yes, I like you too." Aaron nodded.

Slaanesh moaned in ecstasy, his serpentine body quivering in joy.

"So, you don't want me to fall in front of that guy, right?" Aaron continued: "Now, I am dealing with Him alone. I am very brave, and you are just a coward."

Slaanesh's expression paused.

"You tasted my fear, you tasted my anger, you tasted every second of me, my hate, my hope, my love, my bravery, and you were content," Aaron Lift your chin and smile: "But you will never taste my despair!"

"Because you, Slaanesh, you are just a coward!" Aaron pointed his finger at Slaanesh's nose (if that was a nose): "A true, complete coward!"

"Shut up! Who is a coward?" The Dark Prince was angered.

"You just sit here and rot, Slaanesh," Aaron then sneered.

"Yesterday, your brothers asked you, what did you do? Man, you can only answer this: I did nothing."

"Today, I, Aaron, came to ask you what you did, and you told me that you didn't do anything."

"Tomorrow, when others talk about it, when Aaron Salian faces the incarnation of Cthulhu alone, what is our supreme Shalish doing?"

"Our Prince of Darkness can only spread his hands: I didn't do anything!"

"That's you, Salisk, a coward, a complete coward!"

"Continue to be your coward on the throne." Aaron's body gradually became illusory, and his sarcastic expression was like a steel knife, piercing into Slaanesh's heart: "I am going to deal with Cthulhu, you continue Let it rot here.”

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!!" Slaanesh was furious. The Dark Prince stood up directly from the throne. He was angered.

He has always been the weakest among the four gods of chaos, the one least good at fighting!

He has always lost more than he won in the "big game" of the Four Gods of Chaos, and has been beaten into his own domain by his brothers many times!

But He never gave up or admitted defeat. He fought and failed, and was defeated and defeated. He was humiliated by Khorne, deceived by Tzeentch, and despised by Nurgle. But He never gave up. .

Aaron's words hurt Him deeply.

Laugh at him as a weakling, that's what Khorne likes to say.

Laughing at Him for not changing anything is Tzeentch's mockery.

It is Nurgle's scorn to laugh at Him as he rots on his throne.

The words, the triple hurt, were spoken by Aaron, His favorite chosen one.

Even if you know this is Aaron's plan, so what?

Slaanesh didn't care.

Slaanesh loves it!

"Little Aaron." The Prince of Darkness called him.

"Don't bother me, I'm busy." Aaron's figure became more and more unreal, and his consciousness was close to dissipating.

"Stretch out your hands." Slaanesh strode closer from the throne, knelt on one knee a hundred meters tall, and shouted towards Aaron: "Hurry up, before I change my mind!"

A giant hand more than ten meters wide touched a human hand more than ten centimeters wide.

As Aaron's consciousness gradually faded, the voice of the Prince of Darkness entered his mind.

"It's just this once, it won't happen again, my love~"

Then, all the scenes, the six-ringed palace, and the tens of billions of Slaanesh demons disappeared.

Aaron's consciousness has returned to the cliff next to Dark Light Village. His body is broken and his soul is exhausted.

However, the first person to notice something strange was the incarnation of Cthulhu on the opposite side. He pulled back almost subconsciously.

"Crack!"

There was lightning and thunder, and the silver-white giant fist from the void broke through the curtain, booming from the cracks in reality, clenching Aaron's broken body into the fist, and the purple light filled the sky, shaking the sky in all directions.

The incarnation of Slaanesh has arrived!

The giant fist smashed the dark power shield of the old ruler with one blow. There was a clang and a deafening sound. The earth roared. An avatar giant with a silver body and purple stripes hit the face of the incarnation of Cthulhu. on it, beating it until the flesh and blood tentacles on its face trembled.

There were thunderous roars of lightning in the thunder clouds, and the old body projected terrifying bright red stripes on the ground. Mottled dark patches appeared on the dark green flesh, as if scratches had been made under the skin. There was a wound.

The silver giant punched again, and the incarnation of Cthulhu retreated again. After receiving this blow, his huge body shook, purple cracks emerged from the surface of his body, and it instantly became dark and dull, made of flesh and blood made of will projections. Like gray snowflakes, falling in large pieces.

"You are..." After being hit hard, the Old One finally took a serious look at his opponent.

"I am a brave man! I am specially here to deal with you, the devil~" The incarnation of Slaanesh smiled evilly and stretched out an index finger with a gold chain. Six hundred and sixty-six purple rings gathered on his fingertips, carrying unparalleled power. And go.

The avatar of Cthulhu also raised his hands, the light of the stars flashed, and hundreds of filthy threads stretched out, confronting the avatar of Slaanesh.

The power of the two incarnations of gods collided with each other, the heavy rain stopped, the earth cracked, and the entire ocean evaporated in pieces due to their competition.

Neither side gained any advantage.

But the incarnation of Cthulhu took the initiative to retreat: "Stop it, visitors from the distant stars."

The Avatar of Slaanesh also stopped moving.

"For this guy, I did not hesitate to cross countless star fields to come here... What a pity, I think there is no need to continue fighting." The old ruler shook his head, his condition got worse, and there were pieces of flesh on his body. Turned into dust: "I will leave as you wish. From now on, my family members and I will not be your enemy."

"But, visitor from the distant stars, do you really like humans that much?"

"Didn't the little guy tell you already? The old ruler." Slaanesh turned into a frivolous whisper, with the utmost wantonness: "If there is a desire, there will be a response. This is Chaos!"

"Understood."

The Avatar of Cthulhu and the Avatar of Slaanesh dissipated simultaneously.

Before dissipating, the incarnation of Slaanesh took a deep look at Aaron in the palm of his hand.

"The fear of death, the desire for survival, the selfishness in human nature, and the light in the human heart, this is the fun of the Big Game."

"I recognize your spirit. Continue to spread my power and my faith. I look forward to one day when a new brother joins the game between us. It will be very, very pleasant~"

Outside the Dark Light Village, it was a mess.

Aaron was slowly placed on the ground by the incarnation of Slaanesh. He could feel that the power of Slaanesh in his body had been fully activated.

That was not the kind of activation before. The previous Slaanesh Power only reluctantly cooperated with Aaron and showed unwillingness, but now, the Slaanesh Power has completely obeyed his orders.

One of the four divine powers has been fully activated.

He knew that from this day forward, the name Salian would be more glorious than at any other time in Cormyr's history.

Because he fought off an incarnation of a god.

Pink-purple sparks lit up in Aaron's hands, attracting countless eyes from all realms, outer planes, and domains.

Aaron was cold and domineering. He stood on the cliff, looking down at the earth, indifferent and silent.
