BXBX NOVEL Chapter 319 - A Conversation With God
-----
God had become Noah!
Yet… Noah, the original Noah, had no idea.
He still had no connection with it, even when God itself had become Noah due to the worship given by all of humanity to the sole figure of their Vampire Progenitor, Noah.
And after being requested to call upon Noah by the World\'s Core itself, God had decided to combine the origin it shared with Noah as its alter ego and as it was fused with a small soul fragment of him and try to forcefully send an oracle to him!
The World\'s Core had tried multiple times, even when he was out, but because of some kind of ability that Noah possessed which protected his soul from any external influence, even if it was a mere and innocent message, he seemed to be deaf to her words.
However, now that he had finished killing Indra and had also finished eating, God and the World\'s Core unified their strength and powers and directly sent a Divine Message to Noah, even with him being inside his Divine Realm and even with such a powerful soul defense mechanism he possessed!
FLAAAASH!
As Noah was taking a warm bath to relax in the bathtub, a sudden burst of energy hit his soul directly!
CLAAASH!
"Nnngh?!"
Noah was so surprised he was thrown into the water and swallowed some of it.
"Cough… Ugh. What is it?! A Soul Attack? Inside my Divine Realm!? Who is it! I am going to devour you before you ever dare to-"
"Wait, please stop!"
The sudden voice of a girl speaks with Noah… no, more like a youthful woman.
"Wait, main body, it is me, your soul fragment!"
And then… his own voice speaks with him.
Noah couldn\'t help but feel a bit baffled.
However, he quickly calmed himself down as he jumped out of the bathtub and began to dry his body through controlling winds around his nude body. Afterwards, he quickly summoned new clothes through the transforming of blood itself, and he was ready.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"Phew… we can finally speak with you, Hero," sighed the woman\'s voice.
"Hero? What kind of joke is that?" asked Noah.
"Ah… Sorry, I didn\'t intend to make you angered… I am the World\'s Core, yes, I have a consciousness… Thanks to you clearing the Dungeon Rifts, I have been recovering slowly… I just wanted to thank you for what you\'ve done, especially unifying humanity for such a noble cause as saving me," said the World\'s Core.
"Saving you? What are you talking about? I have been doing that because it is the most efficient way to strengthen my troops and gain resources…" said Noah.
"Eh? Y-You were not doing it to save me?" asked the World\'s Core.
"Like I would care about a world that will soon come to an end… I am merely grabbing everything I can before I leave this floating rock," said Noah.
"F-Floating rock?! I-I am way more than that! I am the planet where you were born!" said the World\'s Core.
"So what? I say whatever I want and do whatever I please, if you have a problem with that, do tell me," said Noah. He was acting arrogant before the World\'s Core!
"Listen here, I just wanted to compensate for your efforts, you don\'t have to be so rude…" sighed the World\'s Core, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
"Main body, please be more patient, I know how you must feel. The situation is dire. But please, don\'t worry, the World\'s Core doesn\'t intend to use you, it wants to aid you," said Noah\'s voice.
"Aid me…? And who are you?" asked Noah while sighing.
"I am God. Well, a lot of things happened, but I am the fusion between the soul fragment you sent to God and God. I have changed not only because of the fragment but because of the worship humanity as done to you, as you know, my nature and appearance, alongside my minds depend in who humanity prays to. And because everyone only offers their prayers to you, I have surged as an alter ego of yourself into God. I used this opportunity to merge with the soul fragment and effectively become it, and then, I easily devoured the lingering minds of God, becoming a single being," said God, surprising Noah.
"So such a thing happened! Haha… Hahaha! That\'s amusing! To think that I would defeat God without even moving a finger! So you\'re like a clone?" asked Noah.
"More or less, main body. I am here to assist you as much as I can. By receiving part of your worship, I am also growing stronger and recovering part of the original strength that God once had… However, what I can do is still limited. The best way to share my power with you would be through a soul connection, but for that… You would need to come to outer space," said God.
"Hm, that\'s not really a problem at all… But now, World, tell me what rewards are you going to give me, and what is your interest over aiding me? Are you aware of the Watchers and their desire to take your core and use it as a material?" asked Noah.
The World\'s Core sighed.
"Indeed… I know that my life is pending from a thread… This is why I must request your aid, you\'re the only one with enough power to actually help me defend the planet… But it seems that you want to escape," said the World\'s Core.
"Indeed, that\'s my plan. I will grab everything I can and then escape…" said Noah.
"Hm… Then, can\'t you escape with me? You possess an immense space within your soul, could it be possible to move me inside?" asked the world\'s core.
"That\'s something I have considered, but my Divine Realm is not so big to fit an entire planet inside yet… However, it gets bigger every time I grow stronger considerably," said Noah.
"I see… Well, for now, let me aid you in growing as strong as you possibly can while fighting off the treats approaching here… And then, if you can fit me in, please, let me go with you…" sighed the world\'s core.
"Hm…"
