Blade of the Goddess
Chapter 242

Chapter 242: Chapter 242

Before Zion’s mind and body were transported to a black void that he didn’t recognize, his body had undergone some changes.

Although Zion had successfully altered the type of energy the nexus pool would spray into the middle world, it was still energy that came from the will of the world. This meant that while the energy would be connected to Luminera, it wouldn’t be her energy.

Because of this, Zion wasn’t able to absorb the energy the way he assumed he would be able to.

You see, his goal was to basically become a mini Nexus pool himself, breaking the boundary between realms while using the strength of the world to empower himself.

This, however, didn’t turn out as planned. While he was still able to successfully absorb the nexus energy, the energy didn’t merge with him or allow him to use its power. Instead, it dragged his entire existence to another plane.

Now, Zion was floating in a black void, looking at a glowing golden orb of light that hovered right in front of him.

"You attempt to covet my power?" The voice asked, its tone serious and powerful.

Zion felt his entire existence tremble beneath its power. It was as if it was ripping his entire being apart, stripping down his body to mere cosmic strands.

"Arghhhhhh!!!!!" He bellowed in pain.

"Speak!!" The voice demanded

"Arghh!! Stop fucking with my head you bitch! Let’s just have a normal conversation!" Zion just experienced the worst headache he’s ever had. It felt as if something was trying to claw its way out of his skull.

"YOU DARE DEMAND ME!"

"FUCK OFF YOU STUPID LIGHTBULB!"

Zion had no reason not to go all out against that talking flash of light and blasted it with everything he had, even using his relics to aid him.

The result? Absolutely nothing.

"You dare attack me?! The will of the world?! I’ll rip your soul to shreds!"

"ARGHHHHH!!!!!"

Zion screamed in pain as the will of the world started deleting his soul. The pain was unlike anything he had ever felt before. No amount of mutilation or torture could prepare him for this feeling.

But just as his soul was about to be destroyed, the pain suddenly stopped.

’D-Did they stop?’ He wondered, panting heavily. His mind was under a lot of stress, and he felt like he was about to pass out, but he willed himself to stay awake.

"I-Impossible! How can I not destroy your soul? I have dominion over every soul in the world. The only ones that I don’t are if the soul-"

"Is not from your world? Heh, haha, hahahahahaha! Who would have thought that being reincarnated unnaturally would save my, well, soul?"

"You! Who did this?!"

"Luminera, bitch!"

The will of the world froze. "Luminera? You mean the goddess? I haven’t seen her in a long time. I thought she died."

"I thought the gods were connected to you. Shouldn’t you have known that she was alive?"

"Just because something is connected to you doesn’t mean you’re aware of it. Do you feel the blood flowing in your body?"

Zion nodded. "Fair."

"Because of your connection with Luminera, I’ll spare you for now. However, you must tell me why you tried to covet my power."

Zion explained everything. His reasoning for being reincarnated and what was currently going on in the world.

"I see. So you had no Ill intentions and were just following Luminera’s will? I understand. I believe you since you’re her apostle. Hmm? I can also feel that one of my Nexus Pools has been converted into Divine energy instead of the mana I originally had flowing there. Is that your doing as well?"

Zion nodded. "Yeah, it is."

"Okay, I understand your predicament. I’ll help you out."

"Really? That’s fucking great! You’re the best! Wait, why are you helping me?" Although Zion was grateful, he became suspicious since the will accepted everything too easily.

"When I was born, I was lonely. I had no one. No life, no death, just stagnation. But then, Luminera and Erebosa were born. They gave life to my world, our world, and the three of us built everything together. But then, those Titans came, those world killers!"

The will of the world briefly went over the story, but didn’t take too long since Zion had told them that he already knew of it.

"Their children, the other gods and devils, have been trying to take my power for millions of years. While they always did it in secret, it was only when they drove out their mothers that they didn’t have to hide their greed anymore. Because of that, I went into a deep slumber."

"I’m guessing I woke you up?"

"Indeed. When you-"

"Wait, do you have a body or something? Talking to you like this is weird."

"A body? The planet is my body. You’re in my consciousness, so I’m appearing to you as my own thoughts."

"Sure, but it’s weird. You see, we people who live on you, in you? Whatever. The residents of your planet like face-to-face interactions. Speaking to a talking dot isn’t exactly comfortable." Zion admitted

"So, how should I appear to you?"

He smirked, "I have an idea. Can you read minds?"

"A trivial task."

"Great. Read my mind and alter your appearance to look like that."

And so it did.

The ball of light morphed into a tall, beautiful woman with long, curly white hair with tan skin. She had large breasts and a fat ass with a killer hip to waist ratio. Her eyes were also golden as if they were reflecting the color sun.

Who did Zion make her look like? Well, it was none other than himself. A female version of himself.

’I’ve always wanted to know what I’d look like if I were a woman. I look sexy as fuck!’

"Hmm, I can see why this form would be more appealing for a being of my world." She admitted

"Now you need a name."

"A name?" She asked

"That’s right. I won’t be a loser and call you Ziona or whatever. Hmm. You’re the will of the world, right? So why not Willow?"

"Willow?" She thought about it for a bit. "Willow, I like it."
