Odyssey of the Blind God

With Shadow's special trait, it was not further difficult to return to the Origin.

His return to the Orion Shelter was celebrated by those close to him and looked at with interest by the remaining citizens of the shelter.

The walls of the shelter had been reconstructed, just like the building in the central district. Each of the buildings in the center of the Orion Shelter could easily overcome attacks from Gods now.

The attacks of Ancient Gods were not included in this test, but it was highly likely that further upgrades would increase the chance of the skyscrapers enduring one or two attacks of Ancients Gods.

This was an exceptional achievement and it was something that made Nial quite happy. He had been worried about whether or not he should return to the Origin because Ancient Gods and Divine Gods would end up attacking the Orion Shelter knowing that he had constructed it.

However, thinking about it, they would focus on the destruction of the Orion Shelter, either way. The moment the second Great War would start, his enemies would strive toward the goal to turn his life upside down.

They were likely to attempt attacking the Gigaloran Galaxies, just to realize that his subjects were much stronger than expected. Thus, the easiest would be to attack the Orion Shelter and eradicate it.

Even if Nial was not present, the Orion Shelter would turn into the eye of the storm.

He didn't really like this, but there was not much he could do against it. Nonetheless, he chose to make an announcement across the entire Orion Shelter after he gathered his thoughts a little.

[Test….1…2…3]

[Dear residents of the Orion Shelter,

I hope everyone is doing well for the time being.

I am not sure if the news has already spread, or if I am going to be the first to reveal the news. Either way, it is not going to be something nice, so please prepare yourself mentally.]

Nial stopped here for a few seconds to give everyone enough time to take a deep breath and prepare themself mentally for what was going to be revealed.

[As everyone should have figured out by now, my cultivation energy is different from the norm. In fact, it is very similar to the cultivation energy of the Late Darkness God, Damian. Some may know who this is, while others might have never heard from him. To put it simply, he was considered an enemy of the strongest races in the Universe.

Due to certain circumstances, I've inherited his cultivation energy, and his memories. This is also why his subordinates, and the four Gigaloran Galaxies resurfaced when I ascended godhood. I gained full control of the four Gigaloran Galaxies and his subordinates. However, this is something that most races, including those who had once fought and feared the Late God of Darkness.

I do not want to go further into detail, and just want to tell everyone that it is very likely for some races to prepare to attack the Orion SHelter. As of now, Ancient Gods and Divine Gods cannot enter the Origin with their full power, but it is only a matter of time before that will change as well. By then, the threat the Orion Shelter will have to face will be horrendous.

Thus, only those who are ready to stay in the Orion Shelter to protect the home they learned to love should stay here. I do not wish to implicate innocent people in this mess, not if I can prevent it somehow!]

As Nial finished his speech, he noticed that the Oracle smiled proudly at him. Perceiving her so openly smiling at him and touching his arm or shoulder to console him caused him to smile lightly. He clearly felt the loneliness of the God of Darkness in his heart. Damian's yearning for love and people who care dearly about him was tremendous. Thus, Nial felt it even stronger. After all, the yearning of eons had been thrown at the Blind God.

Perceiving the Oracle right now, Nial couldn't help but acknowledge that she was extremely beautiful. The Oracle didn't have the same charm and innocent as Hanna, but she had a feeling of maturity, elegance, and devoted love around her.

Being around her was already enough to warm up Nial's heart and to make him feel as if everything would be alright.

Her current strength had been restricted by the Origin, giving Nial a pretty good indicator of how strong the strongest Gods on the Origin were likely to be at this moment.

The defense dome of the Orion Shelter was likely to be strong enough to block a small army of Gods for the next few years. That meant the shelter would be safe to live in. However, traveling around was bound to turn a little bit difficult if they were sieged from all sides, from millions of powerful existences at that.

That was also why Nial made the announcement. He wanted to make sure that everyone was informed about the possible dangers that would reach them soon.

Nial didn't think that the Gods he spoke to earlier would be able to do something against the wrath of other races. In ancient records, Damian was considered the biggest threat of the Universe.

His successor had been unveiled and his heinous deeds would soon be exposed as well.  It was only obvious that some races would try to kill him as long as he was still a 'weak' God. He had only ascended godhood a short while ago.

Of course, he still had the Devils, and he could make use of his subjects in the four Gigaloran Galaxies as well.

But he wouldn't use his subordinates from the four Gigaloran Galaxies yet. He had already sent out a few Devils to control the races in the four Gigaloran Galaxies, giving them a few important tasks that had to be completed as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, Nial was safe and sound with his million Devils. The moment someone would be daring enough to attack the Orion Shelter, Nial wouldn't hesitate to obliterate them all.

His own strength was bound to increase drastically. After all, he had dozens of Gods, a bunch of Ancient Gods, and a Divine God to digest!
