God's Eyes

Only one Flame of the Beginning existed, and the number of regularly born Shards of the Flame of the Beginning were also widely known.

But what would happen, if a catastrophic event occurred, an event that would cause the sudden compression of tremendous amounts of energy?

In order to create enough energy to give birth to an anomaly of a Shard of the Flame of the Beginning in a single moment at that, the entire Universe would have to be in an uproar.

Or…the entire Universe would have to be on the verge of destruction!

The flame of the beginning had been in existence even before the Universes had merged.

However, it was a fact that it ceased to exist for a short period of time when the Universe was destroyed, devoured by the core of Shima, the infinitely large planet that was birthed after the destruction of the Universe.

The generated energy when Shima was born was not only enough for the Universe's Origin energy to birth all necessary existences that were required for the planet to survive, but one Shard of the Flame of the Beginning  as well.

Only a handful beings knew about the existence of the Shard of the Flame of the Beginning, and even less were now alive.

And out of those beings that were still alive, not a single one knew where the anomaly of the Shard of the Flame of the Beginning was now located!

But in this case, it would have to be impossible for the Shard of the Flame of the Beginning to appear on Argos, in the settlement of the Goblin Prince.

It made no sense for it to have appeared out of nowhere.

Yet, what would have happened, if Shima, as the replacement of an entire Universe had intervened in Jason's fate?

What if the Shima's Origin energy was capable of perceiving Jason's fate; the future that was bound to happen?

Would it have teleported the one and only anomaly of the Flames of the Beginning's shard, or would it have not intervened at all?

Was the Universe actively searching for the Candidates to become Primordial Gods, were they birthed as Candidates to become Primordial Gods, or were they slowly shaped by the Universe's will?

Maybe, the Universe didn't even have such great power, and everything was but a coincidence…or even an unpredictable accident.

Was the anomaly of the Flames of the Beginning's shard just something that happened, or had some existence, whether it was the Universe or something on par with the Universe itself had their hands in the fate of the Primordial God's Candidates?

Nobody knew the answer, and never would anyone find out about the truth…nobody would dare obstruct Jason's attempt to become the first of many bright shining stars!!

His bright light would serve as a catalyst for the dimming light of old stars to reignite, and give hope and birth to new, bright shining stars that would shine even brighter than Jason!!

The tension Jason felt while standing in the middle of the 12 Primordials and the two Goddesses was truly suffocating.

But instead of feeling as if he wanted to run away at once, Jason simply smiled faintly before he averted his focus in a specific direction.

His Origin energy was urging him to go in this particular direction.

Initially, Jason had wanted to leave the others behind the moment they would have calmed down.

He didn't care about their reason to fight, but the current situation didn't allow any Gods to die.

As such, he decided to intervene.

Otherwise, Jason wouldn't really have cared.

Keeping his attention on one direction, Jason's face grew serious.

Through this, the Celestia aura that tightly enveloped him seemed to have tensed up as well, increasing the suffocating atmosphere around them.

Yet, when Yasmine and Beatrice saw his expression while looking in the direction their home was, they couldn't help but feel a little bit odd.

No killing intent or the intention to fight radiated from him.

Instead, it was almost as if Jason was too kind and calm.

This was completely opposite to the tremendous pain he caused the Demandor God to feel for radiating killing intent earlier.

As such, the two Goddesses began to wonder what was going on as they merely looked at each other

All of a sudden, worry flooded them, and Beatrice was about to tell Yasmine that they should return to their home, as quickly as possible, at that.

But it was just at this moment when Yasmine's bracelet began to suddenly vibrate.

A screen manifested right in front of her and the message made the halfling's eyes widen.

"One of the God-ranked Veils just burst open!!"

Under normal circumstances, this wouldn't have been problematic because they had more than enough defensive measures to protect the entire Empire from any type of Veil waves.

However, right now, an irregular Veil had burst open, several hundred years earlier than it was supposed to!!

When Jason heard this, he immediately knew why the Origin energy was acting like this.

A wave of a rather large, and expanded Veil was just occurring, and the Origin energy was telling him to act, fight and kill the Vile existences that were bound to emerge.

'Did Yan teleport me to this place intentionally? Or was it a subconscious move?' He wondered all of a sudden, without realizing that it might have been the Origin energy within Yan to make this decision as well.

Or it was just Yan's desire to send Jason to one of the other Primordial God Candidates and to get bombarded by countless questions as well.

However, Jason didn't have time to find out an answer as he sensed that both Goddesses hurriedly shot past him, returning to their home at the highest speed they could.

Jason wanted to follow suit but was surprised to see that the 12 Primordials didn't even budge. This caused him to knit his brows as he looked at them quizzically.

"What are you guys doing? If you are already near, come and help out!"

He clearly felt that the Primordials wanted to leave, and have nothing to do with this Veil.

It was way above his earlier expectations. After all, his very own father told him that everyone had begun to work together against the dangers of the Veil.

This was something Jason had hoped for as well because it was the only way for all of them to survive which was by working together!

"Why should we help them? We had our reason to fight them, and the Veil in his empire is just his problem, isn't it?"

Jason didn't expect to hear this answer, from the Celestia God, at the least, and it took him quite a bit of willpower, not to throw a fit after the middle-aged-looking Celestia God asked the question.

He was angered about the narrow mindset of the Celestia God and seeing that the others just nodded their heads, he felt even more enraged.

Origin energy leaked from his body, merging with his Celestia aura that was slowly turning crimson as he felt that all the efforts of a few powerful beings were being trampled by idiots that had no idea what kind of aftermath their actions might have.

"If you want the merged Universe to get weaker and weaker, keep your fucking attitude. But don't even dare to start whining once the Universe is on the verge of death, just because of the bullshit you spout!!"

His Celestia aura enveloped all 12 Primordials around him, suppressing them in their entirety.

Not even their domain was strong enough to push back Jason's aura that was intertwined with the energy of the Universe.

As such, their eyes widened when looking at him, and soon enough they found traces of reluctance in his eyes.

They didn't want to fight the Vile existence, at least not in the territory of the being that rejected the Royal Primordials as their rulers.

If Jason were to know that this was their reason to reject fighting, he would be even more enraged.

That would be the case, if that was even possible, to begin with.

"Now, follow me, or I'll drag all of you to your fucking home, half-dead and on your knees!"
