Chapter 59 Cause & Effect
Chapter 59 Cause & Effect
The Evil Beast, OBA, The Presence, and OAA.
These four can be considered the most supreme beings in both universes.
Now, only one entity remains unseen, and that is Monitor-Mind The Overvoid, (also known as The Void, The Overmonitor, and The Primal Monitor), the original DC universe. It is more accurate to say that the DC universe is a 'flaw' constructed upon Overvoid.
If it were to appear, it would be quite fascinating.
Leon was surprised, yet he felt a sense of certainty at the same time.
Traveling directly to Marvel would have been fine, but instead, Leon found himself in Krypton within the DC universe and became a Kryptonian.
Then, inexplicably, he slept for another 100,000 years and ended up in the Marvel Universe.
With such frequent intrusions, how could these great gods not be aware?
No matter how arrogant and ignorant Leon may be, he understands that he is still far from being on par with these true gods.
Unless he can reach the highest realm of the tenth dimension, there is hope for him to be comparable to them.
Thus, OAA perhaps knew about it the first time he came to the Marvel universe.
Moreover, they acknowledged that it was at the hands of The Presence and OAA themselves that Leon was brought to Marvel.
"Why? What are you planning to do?" Leon redirected his gaze from the 'sky'. The gazes of OBA and The Evil Beast had vanished. He turned back to the two mighty gods beside him, wondering about their intentions.
The Presence and OAA exchanged looks and simultaneously released their grasp.
Leon halted his rush towards the other side of the door because he knew that without the permission of those two individuals, he wouldn't be able to take a single step outside.
No matter how fast he is, he cannot break through the joint blockade of these two powerful gods.
Unless they permit it.
"You witnessed the hostility of those two individuals as well. You should have deduced it without asking. They intend to disrupt the order of both universes, even to the point of destroying them," The Presence sighed.
There's no need to elaborate on The Presence's status, and The Great Darkness (The Evil Beast) is a terrifying entity capable of contending with him.
If The Presence represents all light, then The Great Darkness (The Evil Beast) is his counterpart—the origin of all darkness and the most primal shadow in existence.
This monstrous beast possesses immense power, even defeating The Spectre, the so-called messenger of The Presence, with a single thought, rendering him completely powerless.
Only The Presence can halt him.
Eventually, they shook hands and made peace, restoring order to the DC universe that was once on the verge of collapse.
However, somehow...
"He desires to annihilate the entire DC Multiverse and construct a new dark universe atop Overvoid. Today's DC universe is governed by my domain, and he aims to dismantle the current order," The Presence explained the objective of The Great Darkness (The Evil Beast).
OAA further clarified, "If I am above all things, then OBA is beneath all things."
Similar to the relationship between The Presence and The Evil Beast, OBA and OAA are also opposites.
As depicted in ancient myths and legends, one end of the tree of life represents the god who controls the world, while the other side symbolizes the devil who destroys the world.
When OAA came into existence, OBA emerged as well.
However, unlike OAA, OBA resides beneath all things, to the extent that even the life of an ant holds more significance than OBA's existence.
The reason is that OBA initially lacked self-consciousness and existed as a collection of ideas without its own body. It resided in the oldest and truest hell that emerged since the birth of the universe.
That hell has now been abandoned, and the control over death in the universe rests in the hands of the goddess of death, the embodiment of death's will.
This goddess of death is not Hela, the goddess of death from Asgard, but the embodiment of "death" itself, hence referred to as death.
As the five cosmic entities, they should have been superior to all things.
However, they were only born within the universe, and it was because of the universe's birth that they came into existence.
But now, based on what Leon has witnessed, it can be said that the existence of these universes was originally created.
Therefore, the nature of the five cosmic entities is naturally insufficient.
According to OAA, OBA is a manifestation of darkness. It can be regarded as the source of all darkness in the world and can also be called The Satan or Angra Mainyu, the evil god representing darkness and sin.
The Satan or Angra Mainyu is not the name given to darkness by ordinary teenagers in the Holy Grail world; it is the true source of all evil and the god that brings forth the darkness of time.
Such an OBA has a weakness that it cannot overcome - it can never leave the most primitive initial hell, and OBA can only reside in that world forever.
It is like being locked in a cage, and perhaps only when this universe ends and the next one begins will it have a chance to break free.
"So OBA and the Great Darkness (The Evil Beast) found common ground, planning to join forces to destroy the two universes. They have been plotting for an unknown period and have already begun to act."
"That's why we found you, Leon. You possess the power of Superman and the belief in protection. Even after transforming into a monster like Doomsday, you can still retain your sanity. We believe that with you, we can definitely safeguard the two universes."
The Presence and OAA explained the cause and effect of everything to Leon.
It is true that they sent Leon to this universe. After witnessing Leon's various experiences, they believe that Leon can assist them in defeating the conspiratorial ambitions of The Evil Beast and OBA, as well as protect the two universes.
But Leon didn't share the same sentiment: "You hold me in too high regard. If you can't stop them, how can I?"
As a result, The Presence and OAA both laughed and reassured him: "Don't worry, you won't confront them directly. We have an agreement. We cannot directly intervene because if we were to fight, there will be no end. also what would become of our contract?"
"Our agreement entails finding proxies for each other, and these proxies will act on our behalf. And you are our chosen representative, here to help us defeat their chosen representatives. That will suffice."
Leon felt a tinge of annoyance in his heart. They didn't ask for his consent; they simply made a unilateral decision.
However, he remained silent.
The Presence and OAA seemed to notice something and exchanged glances before smiling and saying, "We certainly won't let you work for free. If you agree, we can promise you benefits as well, such as the Infinity Stones and the Heart of the Infinite."
Leon scoffed, "I can gather the Infinity Stones myself."
Indeed, he is familiar with the plot and knows exactly where to find the Infinity Stones.
Currently, there are two on Earth: the Space Gem and the Time Gem.
Thanos currently possesses the Mind Gem, along with the Power Gem stored on a ruined planet.
Lastly, there's the Reality Gem, held by Malekith of the Dark Elves.
Only the Soul Gem poses a challenge, but if he is willing to be ruthless, he just needs to find two individuals who love each other and sacrifice one of them, right?
Hence, this offer doesn't satisfy him.
However, OAA spoke confidently, "The Infinity Stones I'm referring to are from the comic verse."
