129 Chapter 129 | I am Noah
The sudden outburst of an Ultima Strata Legend's mighty pressure made the atmosphere so tense and viscous that it made those weaker in power, struggle to breathe. Only the beings of special destinies could resist the small pressure of the Ultima Strata Legend. Something like that didn't matter to Noah. In fact, he didn't even bother to divide his attention to an insignificant ant that couldn't be categorized as cannon fodder. A fictional waste.
A cold expression appeared on Akaris' face when she heard the disgusting words from his brother.
Since when were they so close for him to act so overprotective?
"Your attention should be on me, Akaris. Why are you even concerned about the buzz of a little mosquito?" Noah said amusedly while removing his hand from her stubborn chin.
Akaris didn't know why but she felt disappointed nonetheless by the lack of his warm, delicate hand touching her skin.
"I am not concerned about him. I am just worried that he would incur your ire." Her sharp eyes expressed the honesty in her reply.
A devilish grin curved on his face. "Are you worried about me or your brother's survival?"
Noah knew what the woman wanted. She didn't want a fight to ensue when his actual strength remained a mystery. But who was he? He was someone who did things the way he wanted.
Akaris observed this Entity's facial expression and when she saw the sly curve of his lips, her heart rate unintendedly accelerated.
'This being is an unpredictable element. My instincts are telling me that h-'
Akaris put some distance between herself and the beautiful creature. "I am not worried about you two. What I would like to prevent is unnecessary bloodshed after just surviving a conspiratorial move from the Ancient Races."
She didn't want her emotions to be played again by the latter.
Noah remained unfazed by her dodgy action.
As the two talked with each other in their own bubble, all the representatives mainly the Alpha Strata Legends from the Primordial lineages looked at this scene with unbelieving faces. They weren't privy to the identity of this entity as he wasn't part of any of the five Royal Primordial lineages and the bunch of geniuses that initially entered the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum.
Where did he come from? What kind of authority did he wield to be capable of playing around with Akaris, a vital figure whose very background was extremely intricate and deep, back in the Main Reality? Is he an enemy or a friend?
A storm of unanswered questions swept their minds into never-ending contemplations.
But that didn't matter to them in the slightest. What they were curious about was how he would deal with the feigned anger of an influential representative from the Main Reality.
How will he respond to the stupendous might of an Ultima? Such was the thought that ran through the minds of all those in the crowd.
"Brat, what are your intentions of harassing my sister?" Representative Aileron asked angrily but didn't try to make unnecessary movements.
Akaris felt extremely offended by her dog brother's words. When did she become so weak for him to use the word 'harass'?
All in all, her said brother remained oblivious to her inner rumblings.
Aileron's main focus was on Noah.
He was not stupid.
He knew how cold and powerful his sister was. Apart from her strength, she had definite protective measures that could easily aid her survival in life-threatening situations. She had him, an Ultima Strata Legend for a brother, not to mention their super powerful Lineage in the Main Reality.
Yet the mysterious man remained unfazed by such things. For him to barge into the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum with a protective barrier strong enough to restrict the entrance of those in the Ultima Strata and below, spelled how powerful he might be even if it was only a mere aspect of his will.
Noah saw through their thoughts and emotions in an instant.
Like a madman, he laughed with unrestrained gusto.
The thought of these little beings wanting to glimpse at the infinitesimal fraction of his incalculable strength was truly laughable.
And what was this fictional waste trying to do with all that nonsensical goading?
'How interesting.'
'I will entertain you properly, my dear audience.'
Noah wasn't in the slightest angered when he cast an impassive look toward the Ultima Strata Legend. "Harassing? Why do you sound so harsh when we have just merely met? Or did the word 'harass' change meaning reality-wise without me knowing?"
Being stared down like that, Aileron felt an extreme sense of inferiority.
Ugh, how he hated that kind of feeling!
It reminded him of those old fossils back at the Main Reality with supreme powers scaling above the Grotto Haven Realm who wouldn't even be bothered to look at those below them. He could endure their pride and arrogance since that was another story in itself as they were the true defenders of the Main Reality and the Primordials' Prestige.
But the eyes of the entity in front of him weren't like that. They were beyond worse.
Trash? Ant? Molecule? Atom? Quark?
Representative Aileron didn't know that it was even worse than that. Anyway, his pride as an Ultima Strata Legend and a racially-superior Primordial was thrown on the ground and stomped very disrespectfully.
He clenched his fist tightly to control himself from utilizing his self-created natural laws of reality.
Seeing how he was struggling to control his impulses, Noah chuckled, loud enough for all the people to hear. "Why are you still restraining yourself? Let go of that intoxicating impulse."
"Let go!"
His voice was like a calling, an irresistible wave of insanity that shook the minds of everyone.
They felt a sudden urge to unleash all the negativities boiling inside of them into Reality.
It was to the point that they didn't notice that at one instant, they were even affected.
It was a terrifying feeling but since Noah didn't intend to involve the surrounding, the one who bore the full brunt of [Absolute Madness Inducement] was the poor Ultima Strata Legend.
His mind was deprived of all logic and reason as the invisible essence of [Absolute Madness] sank him deeper and deeper into insanity!
His eyes turned red like a mad dog, high on cannabis.
Incoherent, ear-splitting screams spouted from his mouth as he set his maddening glare at Noah.
His mind, origin, and body weren't his anymore.
He was now a creature of utter MADNESS and CHAOS who lived only to destroy one hateful singular being named Noah, the self-proclaimed Weaver of Dreams and Narratives!
A dreadful Concept, far wondrous and more superior than the TABOO concept, radiated from his figure uncontrollably.
It was a Dharma Concept that was now under proliferating corruption from [Absolute Madness].
It was an awe-inspiring scene as even someone like Osmont couldn't help but feel threatened. If he was bombarded with such a mighty and ruthless power, then he would surely be a goner. What made him fearless was the [Temporal Resurrection] boon from one of the Main Character's skills.
Osmont just wanted to know how this seemingly powerful and all-knowing entity, that boasted that their Reality was but a mere speck, would fair against the full wrath of an Ultima Strata Legend.
Even a Grotto Haven Realm expert wouldn't wanna be careless in the face of such an existential-erasing power!
The Quintessential Kainos Emperor waited in anticipation. 'How will this unpredictable entity deal with the wrath of a Primordial Representative.'
But alas...
On that day, the Quintessential Kainos Emperor and all the scions of the Primordial lineages were bound to have their logic and reasoning totally subverted!
"Sigh..." A voice of utter sadness came from Noah.
"I was trying to talk peacefully with you but here you are trying to attack someone weak like me."
How shameless!
He was the one that made Representative Aileron like that and yet he...
The surrounding people didn't understand and only Akaris who knew her brother in and out... knew that something was wrong.
Her brother has never behaved like that.
What was currently happening was surely a conspiracy by the mysterious man.
But what could she do?
She only hoped for the cocky young man to suffer under Aileron's True Damage attack.
If wishes were horses...
Sadly for her, the controller of wishes was already there.
"I said I am the Weaver of Dreams and Narratives for a reason. Look how an Ultima Strata Legend is turned into a piece of paper; a disposable art." There was neither apocalyptic nor reality-ending destruction but only Noah's words that rang in everyone's mind.
His Words were Law.
Reality was his to command.
Reality could be whatever he wanted.
Aileron truly turned into paper. He became a drawing that was lazily held in Noah's hand.
Just a mere 2D drawing!
All the people could only watch with mouths agape.
Some even died of heart attacks!
"As you can see... I am awfully weak." Noah sighed shamelessly while holding the piece of art that had Aileron drawn in it, for all to see.
"Shall we now go to the Main Reality?" He then pointed to the ginormous DHARMA vessel meant to transport the outstanding geniuses to the domains of the Primordials.
'Are you the creator of our Reality?' Osmont's utterly, astonished voice sounded in Noah's mind.
The power he saw was something beyond explanation.
Now he understood why Lavalliere said that the man was an amalgamation of improbabilities.
'Oh-Ho, I am more than that. I am Noah.' Noah replied wryly.
His life was bound to forever change due to Noah's Will as his once dormant destiny churned vigorously!
