Chapter 1097 Aftershocks.
So in a way, the fountain of life is doing the Will of the plane a favor. But in exchange, if the fountain of life dies, then 50% of the Will of the plane will die too. The plane will surely fall to the Will of the demon god then.
"Now where is that troublesome Ragnarok?" It said to itself. "He has been useful so far against the demon god. But it is now time to put an end to him."
The fountain of life is not in league with the demon god. It didn\'t seal the ghouls because it is in cahoots with the Vampires. It has always been against the demon god. It even helped the will of the plane and Rinoz fight against the demon god.
Yes, it is an invader, but it has been peaceful all the origin cycles it has stayed in the plane and things would have remained like so if not for the stubbornness Will of the plane. The main cause of its conflict with the plane is because the Will of the plane knew what it was after in the plane so it made Rinoz go after the wood elves and try to kill it.
The fight with Rinoz, Rinoz\'s death, and its takeover of the spiritual Will of the plane are just business. It is nothing personal. Now that it has secured itself into the plane, it doesn\'t need Ragnarok anymore. It can kill Vampires and others on its own. It doesn\'t even have to anymore. The Ghouls will do that for it. Then the Ghouls will disappear once the Vampires are gone. That leaves Ragnarok as the last thorn to remove.
The fountain of life asked in irritation, "Where has that little bug hidden himself?"
Ragnarok has killed Origin gods. The fountain of life has also killed Origin gods. Is not an Origin god just like Ragnarok isn\'t an Origin god. But it is assured that it will be able to kill Ragnarok. So it is confidently searching for Ragnarok but the fountain of life couldn\'t find him. It caused the fountain of life to become irritated.
It used its divine sense to search the whole plane now but it didn\'t get a trace of Ragnarok. Even its true sight that can see through matter can\'t find Ragnarok so the fountain of life had to give up. "Whatever. I will kill him when he shows his face."
It couldn\'t find Ragnarok so it decided to troublemaker when he shows up. It decided to sleep in the meantime. That\'s what entities of its race like doing the most. But it didn\'t get to relax before it was attacked by the only force in the plane that would dare to antagonize it.
Two entities approached the fountain of life quietly and with the goal of violence. The Fountain of life wasn\'t surprised by their appearance. It would have been surprising had they decided not to take advantage of its weakened state to get rid of it.
It said nonchalantly, "So you have shown yourself. I have been expecting you."
The two uninvited guests, one completely black and the other invisible, attacked the fountain of life. Their fight ended quickly and the plane returned to silence. This silence is relative. The plane isn\'t being shaken by explosions and earthquakes so it is silent in a way, but the will of the plane has been thrown into Chaos by the after-effects of the fights.
Just as an earthquake has aftershocks, the fight between the fountain of life and Rinoz led to large consequences for the plane. Rinoz died. That is bad news for the plane. Her absence caused the ghouls to resume their wanton rampage on all life in the plane.
The good news is that the plane will soon be rid of vampires. That hasn\'t completely removed the threat of the demon god but that is progress in the right direction. Unfortunately, it is difficult for the inhabitants of the plane to appreciate this fact. In fact, some of them hate the ghouls more than they hate the Vampires.
This is the situation that Ragnarok found when he came out of hiding. His Origin domain was removed so his cocoon was revealed. Then a clawed hand broke the red cocoon. The rest of Ragnarok\'s body came out from the opening he made.
He was still humanoid but his body expanded as he came out of the cocoon. He has not come to play but to fight and to fight at his fullest capacity so he unleashed his unique body of law right from the start. It caused another eruption to occur from deep within the earth.
This eruption is not as impactful as the previous one. He is not as big as the fountain of life and the earth is already cracked. The earth gave way easily without much resistance so his body continued to grow to his full length without restraint.
He grew to become massive in size. It is as if he is a demon king. He grew to be a kilometer tall so he cast a shadow over entire landscapes. He appears to be a muscular hexapedal creature. His six limbs are thick and end in large clawed paws.
He is so large that the very earth shook when he rested his weight on it. It is not a pleasant experience for a plane that has been battered and bruised by several explosions, eruptions, and earthquakes.
