Chapter 2381 Lernaean Lineage Emperor Maximilian! II
Chapter 2381 Lernaean Lineage Emperor Maximilian! II
Emperor Maximilian locked gazes with the True Emperor of Quintessence, these two beings saying nothing between them as Maximilian came ever closer.
When he was a few meters away from the dreamy gold throne, the Emperor atop it waves his hands to cause the rise of another makeshift throne to appear opposite to him, Maximilian waving his hands behind the procession behind him as all others came to a stop while he proceeded forward.
He looked at the sandy gold throne conjured for him as he actually sighed while sitting down, gazing up to see the visage of Elder Ancestor Ophelia beside the True Emperor of Quintessence before he settled back on this being.
Two Emperors sat before each other as an air of shocking regality wrapped around them, those around feeling a stifling pressure as after these two stared at each other for a few seconds, Emperor Maximilian was the one to speak as his golden strands of hair shone with austere light.
"I apologize."
BOOM!
His first words caused the Elder Ancestors who came with him to be shaken as they gazed forward with incredulity, but Maximilian only continued with a calm expression as he stared towards the True Emperor of Quintessence!
"It was under my watch that the final verdict was given to the Barren Lands. All responsibility lies with me."
WAA!
His eyes were deep and with immense knowledge as he spoke, yet they were also unreadable as one couldn't easily ascertain just what he was thinking!
His words caused the True Emperor of Quintessence to raise his brows while he continued.
"It was me and my party that initially stepped out of the Barren Lands and found the entry into the Havens of Extremity, and everything that has occurred after that is history. And now, we are at an even more vital juncture of history where after all the mistakes and choices made over the years, even grander ones have to be made. So let me officially introduce myself as one of those who makes these choices…I am Maximilian, born from the Halcyon Singularity Domains of the Quantum Dimension of the Barren Lands, and the current Interim Aeonic Lernaean Lineage Emperor."
…!
His grandeur was dominating as all others were breathless after he finished talking, the True Emperor of Quintessence nodding at this moment as he replied.
"I am the Last True Emperor of the Lands you all had forsaken, the True Emperor of Quintessence- Osmont!"
The sandy golden earth churned at his mere words as Maximilian nodded with a smile and waved his hands, causing an illusory scene to appear that showed dozens of points of light stretched out across vast stretches of regions.
"These are all the domains under the Ancestral Lernaeans stretched out across the Haven of Dissolution. Some were strategically found around unique Planes of Existence like this Abecedarian Sacrarium, and others were built atop reserves of unique metalloids used to make our Automatons and Vessels among other things. This…is what represents all of the Ancestral Lernaean Lineage."
"..."
His phrases gripped all beings here as the Elder Ancestors behind him had worried looks, none of them knowing what Emperor Maximilian was going to say next as nothing he had uttered so far was what they expected!
They had the support of their Apex Aeonic Lifeforms.
He held the influence of their power…so why exactly was he speaking like this right now?
None of them knew what would happen as at this juncture where all the sacrariums of the Ancestral Lernaeans were shown stretched out across the Haven of Dissolution, Maximilian looked towards Noah calmly and spoke candidly.
"You see, there's been a great deal of talk amongst us and even the Apex Aeonic Lifeforms on how to…handle you as they called it. How to take care of a being that is supposedly weaker than our strongest forces, and yet we also want the things he has. The mere mention of your demand of taking the reins of the Ancestral Lernaean Lineage has others rising up in arms and roaring out as me personally…I don't truly care."
BOOM!
"Whether you hold me as the only one responsible for the decision of the Barren Lands, I can take on all the punishment for it. It matters not. What does matter…are all these Sacrariums stretched out across this Haven. The quintillions of beings within them. Their hopes and dreams. They are what matter the most."
Emperor Maximilian pointed to the illusory images of the Sacrariums he had conjured up as his words caused the Elder Ancestors behind him to rise up while calling out to him!
Yet on his conjured throne…
HUM!
A regal crimson air rose as it was a genuine Bloodline Authority.𝓷𝑜𝐕𝑒𝗅𝓤𝚜𝑏.𝒸𝐎𝓂
An authority afforded only to the Interim Aeonic Lernaean Lineage Emperor as he could actually suppress the Bloodline of those he ruled over!
Those behind him quieted as before him, Noah had an interested smile as even Ophelia was shocked at this unfolding situation.
"You see, I am going against the words handed down to me by our Apex Aeonic Lifeforms that mainly included threats and reminding you how there were multiple others above you in power, but even they are missing the point."
WAA!
His golden hair danced with majesty as seared upon his throne, he truly seemed like a genuine Emperor!
"Why do we continue to seek power? Is it just for ourselves? Those who think so have lost their direction. Everything I've done so far is for the Lineage. For the countless lives within them. I care not for my own prestige and might as in my life…I will never be able to even touch the stage of Apex Aeonic Lifeform."
…!
As he spoke, his hands went before his chest as his robe was pulled aside to reveal his fair skin underneath- skin that showed stellar sparkling wonder as one could see…a few Meridians that were twisted and fractured!
Aeonic Extremity Meridians that represented a entity who had failed in their Apexification!
Noah looked at such a entity curiously as Providence told him his phrases were genuine!
"For the sake of all Lernaeans, I have no qualms stepping down after my failures, but the only way I would do that is if I have a confirmation from you. Because you see, at this very moment…Inheritances from other Havens have reached out to us seeking our fealty to them. They will divide us and displace us into different regions, and they will throw our lives into the fires of the Extremity Sanctification as they so wish. Towards these factions that have multiple existences that have reached Extremity…how will you deal with them to ensure the abundance of all Lernaeans?"
…!
