327 Sage of Infinite Paths
"Well… about that…" I began explaining my plans for this planet…
I began questioning the beings who attacked this planet and the chances that they would come again here. It started as a basic story about a bunch of planetarians from a nearby planet and stuff.
Then it escalated about the type of people they were, along with the base information about cultivation and stuff. In Aisha's timeline, they have been wiped off the planet, so there isn't much mention of them. Even Aarick lacks proper information about them.
The one that actually has some idea was Diaspora, who told us about the powers and levels of the enemies. They were powerful, but most of their power was confined to the stronger beings, which weren't a lot in number. Just about a 100 individuals.
Though they were so powerful that even if the entire planet hadn't taken part, they themselves would have been enough to take care of this planet. Though, because half of them were busy conquering other planets nearby, they brought all their forces at once.
One more piece of theory was that since it has been a millennium, the number of individuals might have increased by a lot.
"Hmmmm… seems like it's him," Aarick spoke as he sighed as observed Aisha's expression. Aisha, too, sighed as she observed Aarick's expression.
"Who?" I asked with curiosity, wondering if it was someone they knew.
"The Creator of Rivega, the one beyond power. One of the 12 True Higher Gods, Rivega Exclair, The Sage of Infinite Paths," Aisha answered with her expression turning rather serious, making me wonder even more about him.
"Is he powerful? He sounds powerful," I asked as I looked at Aisha.
"Haha… powerful? Michael…. How many energies do you think are present in this world?" Aisha asked, and I shook my head." A lot many?"
She chuckled as she answered," 137."
"That's kind of… less than what I expected," I said as I thought there being so many planets, dimensions and universes, the energies should be of that many types as well.
"Hmmm. It's not that there are only 137 energies. But there are 137 types of energies. You know like Water can be pure water, corrupted water, holy water, unholy water, cursed water, etc? Something like that. Then there are combinations of water and fire, water and ice, etc… the possibilities are infinite," Aisha explained it in a bit more detail before adding a final sentence,
"Rivega has mastery in all forms of energies."
"..."
"Doesn't that make him…" I was about to speak, but Aarick added," A God? Yeah. He is one of the 12 True Higher Gods, after all. Though, all 12 The Higher Gods are equally monstrous."
"..."
If they are that powerful, aren't they omniscient or something?
Wait!
"Aarick. You said that they are alive in this dimension… did they die in another dimension or something?" I asked with a rather even more curious expression.
"Well. Yeah. They were trapped and killed by me in my dimension," Aarick spoke before my expression 15:27
almost widened, but he hurriedly added,'' No! No! No! There were too many variables back then. They had been stripped of their powers, making them pretty weak. Plus, I was much much stronger as well. I even had an entire army to kill each and everyone of them, which took over a millennium each."
Aarick sighed as he added," right now, I don't even have a percent of my powers."
Not even a percent and you are this powerful, huh?
"Well… I wonder about the power level… but how do you weaken them?" I asked, as I wondered if I could increase my level. Can we create a chance?
"Ah! You can't. The one who weakened them and stripped them of their powers, probably is lying low in this timeline somewhere. Only he could do it… though it is impossible to find him in this timeline… honestly, we don't even know if he is alive or not," Aarick spoke as he talked about a person who was powerful enough to subdue them.
"Though don't worry. Even if you kill all of Rivega, he won't care much. He has gone to a far higher realm, and most probably won't come down to this realm. We can erase your enemies and make sure you get the planet." Aarick smiled as he added.
"Huh?" I looked at him, a bit stupefied. If that was the case, then why did they even mention his name?
"Though, are you sure he won't care about his people?" I asked just for confirmation, and the one who answered was Aisha.
"Yeah. For them, all that matters is they are strong. The True Higher Gods, the other Higher Gods, the Lower Gods… all of them are pieces of shit. Even if their family is dying in front of them, the one thing they would care about is the way to absorb the power of their family members to grow stronger," Aisha spoke as if she had seen it with her own two eyes.
Though because the atmosphere was getting a little too tensed, I changed the topic to something else,
"Aisha. How is the training of Caroline, Angela and Irenee going? Is it going well?"
Aisha smiled as she nodded." Though it's not an extraordinary level, it's still better than many. They do have talents that could bloom enough to assist us in fighting against the decisive battle. But it would take some time to manifest."
I smiled as I looked at Diaspora and then at Aarick." you are going to train Diaspora?"
Aarick nodded as he spoke." Well. I need to get back to my prime power as well. I have lost too much."
I was curious how Aarick lost his power and how he was here. From the previous talks, it seemed like he wasn't from this reality as well. But that was only a speculation. Also, I was curious about the identity of Aarick.
Despite being a weekend, the 12 True Higher Gods don't seem like someone could easily handle. He must be someone really capable of pulling the feat which he did.
"I take it as you are trying to make this planet as your training ground for the battle you guys are talking about?" Aarick asked, and I nodded. While the quest was one thing, I was really planning to make this plan a place to train.
While [Second Space] is big, it's not as big as this planet is.
"Sure. I will also make this as my base then. Since I also want to go back to my dimension, it is better to stick with you guys than roam around endlessly," he added as he made his decision.
Now that everything was more or less settled. The question is how to get out of here and reach the place where the betrayers were.
"So. How are you planning to reach the planet where the Rivegas are settled?" Aarick asked, making everyone turn at me.
'If I want to travel to that planet, then I would need a spaceship to that planet or something… hmmmm… I guess I can ask Rhea to provide me something from the [Shop]?' I gave it a thought before speaking," just give me some time alone. There is something that I need to do."
And then I warped away from there, before reaching a safe place.
[Second Space!]
Let's see if there is anything I can take from the [Shop].
