Chapter 454 - [454] Confronting the Primordial Father Chaos, and Miyamoto Musashi Releasing the World!

The sky split apart, revealing a gigantic flaming eye that appeared with the most terrifying presence.

Simply looking at this eye could make one feel suffocating despair.

It was too large.

Larger than this entire city.

Behind it burned endless flames, as if positioned upon the sun.

The majestic power capable of crushing everything was displayed recklessly before everyone.

Just a glimpse was enough to make everyone intuitively realize that no power on Earth could surpass it.

No, the entire planet couldn't compare to it!

Even the usually calm and rational Holmes sighed heavily, exclaiming in awe:

"Even the Demon God King Goetia, burning the accumulated energy of all human history, cannot compare to this at all!"

A single statement that articulated its unimaginable majestic power!

The Demon God King's third Noble Phantasm precisely looked back three thousand years, igniting all parallel world human histories.

Transforming into a majestic power that fundamentally doesn't exist on Earth to surpass.

Using this to reverse time and return to 4.6 billion years ago.

But now.

The mysterious and wise Holmes made such a judgment.

Making the true master behind the Olympian Gods appear before humanity in the most shocking way!

The audience instantly erupted—

[Damn, how strong is this guy? Can humans really defeat it? Even bringing Goetia along wouldn't be enough!]

[I finally understand why the Captain said Zeus was just a pitiful clown... After seeing Chaos, I want to say I'm the clown too!]

[Instant chills down my spine. Could this guy destroy Earth in one breath? How did it even survive until now?]

[Damn, the Primordial Father Chaos must be the ultimate pinnacle combat force in this universe, right?]

[I wonder if God can take this guy on—a genuine stellar-class warship, absolutely insane!]

...

In reality.

At the boundary between the surface world and the reverse side.

During the Greek gods' tea party.

Athena watched the appearance of the Primordial Father, her eyes filled with helplessness: "The Primordial Father is a super-massive construct forged with the galactic core as its foundation, a colossal mothership that absorbs the entire galaxy's energy."

"It is also the manifestation of the Dyson Sphere temporal fortress, its true form already merged with the cracks in cosmic space."

No amount of words could accurately describe its power.

It exists on a completely different dimension from humanity.

No, even the Olympian gods would be extinguished like a candle flame in its eyes.

So-called gods like Apollo, Amaterasu, and Ra—all combined—aren't worthy of comparison.

These deities who hold authority over the [Sun] cannot even grasp one billionth of the sun's true power.

While the Primordial Father Chaos can directly plunder the entire sun's energy!

"The supreme Primordial Father... I truly cannot imagine how to defeat it." Artemis also frowned deeply.

In Greek mythology.

It symbolizes the beginning of everything.

The embodiment of primordial order, space, time, and more.

Transcending all gods, beyond all speculation and imagination.

Back when the universe where the Olympian gods resided was nearing its end.

The Primordial Father expended 97% of its own energy to send the Olympian Machine Gods to the Milky Way where Earth is located.

The Machine God fleet traveled for tens of thousands of years, searching for a habitable planet.

Through miracle upon miracle, they finally discovered Earth.

However.

To Earth, they were nothing but invaders.

The Primordial Father's command was precisely to transform it into a new home for the Machine Gods.

As for humans and other lifeforms on Earth? Naturally, they were to be either enslaved or exterminated!

But.

The gods became influenced by human worship and faith, gradually transforming into the familiar deities of humankind.

The gods began wanting to protect humanity, to coexist with humans.

Unfortunately, the Lostbelt awakened the Primordial Father, which has been manipulating Zeus to continue the enslavement and transformation of the entire planet.

Just as Kirschtaria said, the so-called omnipotent great god Zeus is nothing but a manipulated clown!

At the tea party.

Apollo and the other gods watched the appearing Primordial Father in silent contemplation.

Only they, these Olympian gods, could truly understand its overwhelming power.

One could say this was the genuine cosmic pinnacle-level combat capability!

The planet-destroying energy gathered by the Demon King's Human Order Incineration was nothing in its eyes.

It could vaporize the entire Earth with its vast energy!

Under such overwhelming force.

Even gathering all Heroic Spirits from Pan-Human History wouldn't offer the slightest hope of victory!

Athena whispered: "The only possibility is to close the Void Gate, thereby preventing its descent."

This was the only chance of victory.

The Primordial Father Chaos was so powerful that it couldn't even freely descend into this universe.

Its true form remained within the space-time gaps, merely forcing a portion of its power through the connection left in Zeus.

Therefore, severing this connection would be enough to expel it.

The question remained: how could they possibly strike it?

The Primordial Father resides high in the heavens.

All methods prove utterly ineffective against Him!

...

In the video.

Everyone falls into stunned silence and despair.

Especially Holmes' explanation, which makes everyone fully realize His overwhelming power.

An unstoppable might!

No mockery is needed, no dialogue required—the eye begins to glow with radiant light.

He is preparing to attack!

A strike from the sun!

The God of War, Mars, shouts, "Damn it, the attack is coming! Divine Ancestor, you protect everyone—I'll confront it!"

"Agreed. Let Rome handle the defense!"

The Divine Ancestor Romulus nods without hesitation.

The power of Rome's supreme divine authority burns fiercely at this moment.

The vast concept of the Roman Empire manifests, transforming into the strongest defensive barrier enveloping everyone.

Nameless fully unleashes the [Athena's Aegis].

The golden shield unfolds in an instant, forming a brilliant, golden defensive dome resembling Valhalla.

Fou also leaps onto his shoulder, pouring all magical energy into his body.

Infused with the magical energy of the Beast of Humanity, Nameless projects the sheath [Avalon] once more, creating a second layer of defense.

Mash, equally resolute, raises her shield, transforming it into the magnificent walls of Camelot to form the third layer of defense.

"Everyone, be careful—the attack is coming!"

The Roman God of War, Mars, clad in massive crimson armor, brandishes his ultimate Noble Phantasm without hesitation—

[Sword of Mars (Photon Ray)!]

It erupts in a rainbow-colored brilliance, shooting straight toward the heavens.

Just as all preparations are complete.

The attack from the Primordial Father, Chaos, descends from the sky with overwhelming force.

The entire world is engulfed in blinding light.

Whether it's Nameless and the others on the scene or the spectators watching from afar, all can see nothing but the dazzling radiance.

There is no sound of explosion—only the most chilling silence and despair.

Crack~

A moment of deathly silence, feeling both instantaneous and eternal, was finally broken by sound.

The first layer of defense, the Divine Ancestor Romulus, was now covered in cracks.

Even manifesting the entire concept of Rome couldn't withstand it head-on.

Boom!

Nameless, positioned at the second layer of defense, was sent crashing down while vomiting blood, slamming hard into the ground.

The two powerful defenses had barely managed to block this lethal strike.

But!

When the light finally faded, everyone realized.

The Divine Ancestor and Nameless had only withstood the aftermath.

Mars, the God of War positioned at the very top, had vanished!

Yes, vanished without a trace, not even the slightest remnant of his aura remained.

Completely vaporized in an instant!

With just one strike, the powerful God of War Mars had been evaporated!

Nero couldn't help but exclaim in shock: "God—of—War!!!"

This was Rome's God of War, the deity she worshipped, and also the Divine Ancestor's father.

But now, he'd been vaporized in a single strike!

This powerful [Crimson Machine God] had completely sacrificed himself to block the attack from the sun.

The Divine Ancestor Romulus sighed: "Mars has transcended himself. The attack from the Primordial Father far surpasses even the peak power of Apollo, the Sun God."

This was truly a solar-level attack.

So powerful that even [Artemis, the Planet-Sniper] and [Apollo, the Planet-Destroyer] combined couldn't compare.

A single strike capable of piercing through a planet!

If God of War Mars hadn't sacrificed himself to resist it, everyone present would have surely died!

The spectators were stunned—

[One strike... vaporized a Machine God? Am I seeing things?]

[Nameless and the others sacrificed so much to fight the Moon Goddess, and this was just a casual strike???]

[I suspect this strike wasn't even at full power! If the true body descended, would it directly blow up Earth?]

[Be confident, remove the suspicion! This Primordial Father could indeed blow up Earth!]

[Before this Primordial Father, so-called Demon God King Goetia and the Alien God are nothing but trash!]

[So how was this Lostbelt pruned? Did God Himself intervene?]

...

In reality, at Chaldea.

Mash was equally stunned: "The Primordial Father's attack... my shield couldn't block it either, could it?"

She inherited the Round Table Shield of the heroic spirit Galahad, said to be able to block all damage as long as one's spirit was strong enough.

Back in the Final Singularity, it had directly blocked Goetia's [Ars Almadel Salomonis].

If Fou hadn't intervened to save her, she would have sacrificed herself.

Now, Chaos's attack completely overwhelmed Goetia's [Ars Almadel Salomonis]—there was no way to block it!

"Your conceptual shield could theoretically block it... but in reality, better not count on it." Da Vinci sighed.

Theoretically, the conceptual shield could block all damage.

But that was just theory.

No matter how strong human willpower is, it cannot oppose stellar-level existence.

To confront it directly, only the sheathe [Avalon], known as the strongest defense, would suffice.

That Noble Phantasm is the ultimate defense, capable of blocking all magical and physical attacks.

Unfortunately,

That Noble Phantasm was used by Nameless to seal Goetia, who had become the planet's consciousness, and cannot be used now.

Dr. Roman couldn't help but shake his head: "This is a nightmarish attack capable of destroying Earth. Even at my peak, I couldn't possibly contend with it."

As the omniscient and omnipotent King of Magic, Solomon, he commanded all forms of magecraft.

Yet against this being's assault.

No matter how powerful the magecraft he unleashed, he couldn't harm the opponent in the slightest.

A single warship of theirs was enough to crush the entire Pan-Human History!

Watching the Primordial Father make his entrance gave Dr. Roman the feeling of playing a game where the power scaling suddenly breaks.

It's too unbalanced!

The opponent's existence represented overwhelming strength—utterly undefeatable!

Mash gazed at the screen with deep concern: "So, how exactly was it defeated?"

Faced with such a formidable being, even the Mage King doctor couldn't see any hope.

How did Senpai manage to prune the Lostbelt back then?

...

The Primordial Father's greeting plunged everyone into despair.

Just then.

Miyamoto Musashi suddenly chuckled lightly: "Its true body resides in the void. It seems that simply closing this gate would be enough to banish it."

"While that may be true, that's not a gate—it's the conceptualization of the void itself," Nameless frowned.

"Exactly. Now I finally understand why I've been wandering through the Lostbelts and surviving until now."

Musashi's smile grew even brighter. "I've always said 'there's still something I haven't cut.' I never thought it would actually appear."

"Wait, you don't mean to..."

Nameless blurted out instinctively.

"We can't wait any longer. Behind us lies Pan-Human History. All the Heroic Spirits have given their all to protect humanity."

Musashi gently waved her hand. "While I'm just a lonely wanderer who can never find a home."

"I traveled through the void and saw hundreds of void gates, which allowed me to meet you in Shimousa."

"But as time passed, all those gates closed. One day, there will be no world left that can accommodate me."

The smile slowly faded from the female swordsmaster's face.

Replaced by profound melancholy.

With the cherry blossoms completely pruned, she had become a wanderer through time and space.

No longer having any home to return to.

She traveled through the Lostbelts, visiting world after world.

But these were ultimately just temporary stops, not her true home.

"Don't say that. You can come to Chaldea—I'll give you a home!" Nameless extended the invitation.

As humanity's last Master, he could summon all Heroic Spirits of Pan-Human History to Chaldea.

This was the true home for Heroic Spirits.

Where they could live on, fighting alongside him to protect humanity.

"No need to worry so much. I must eventually face my own ending."

Musashi smiled and placed a hand on his shoulder. "If I ever get the chance to visit Chaldea, don't forget to treat me to a feast."

"For now, I bid you farewell in the way of a swordsmaster. The Primordial Father is worthy of being my final opponent."

"Three bows with one sword—the end of training is reaching infinity. Breaking through infinity to reach zero, yeah~"

"Final opponent" naturally meant death.

Yet the swordsmaster proudly made a peace sign, striking a classic photo pose.

As if this weren't a farewell, but a cheerful outing.

Tears welled in Mash's eyes: "But you'll die that way! There must be another method!"

"Alright now, no more acting cute, you silly Gudao and foolish Mashu. This is truly the only optimal solution!"

Miyamoto Musashi reached out and ruffled the little shield maiden's head.

Then, with extreme seriousness, she said, "Gudao, let me make a splendid exit in the swordsman's way. There are still two Lostbelts ahead - you cannot stop here!"

"I..."

Nameless opened his mouth but couldn't find the words.

He wanted to dissuade her, but simply couldn't find any alternative approach.

Her self-sacrifice might indeed close the gate.

However, as humanity's only Master, he served as the core hub connecting all Heroic Spirits of Proper Human History.

If he were to die completely, it would mean humanity would lose all hope.

Miyamoto Musashi laughed, "Haha, I'm just taking an early retirement here. You'll have to handle all the powerful enemies from now on."

"Alright!"

Nameless nodded with great difficulty.

Beside them, Mashu had already begun shedding tears.

Meeting after meeting, parting after parting - they had long considered each other important friends.

But now, this separation would be eternal!

The cosmic warship created by the twins fully unleashed its power, shooting straight toward the heavens.

Unfortunately, it still couldn't reach the Void Gate - the distance remained despairingly vast.

At the final moment.

Divine Ancestor Romulus stepped forward: "Since you're willing to sacrifice yourself, let me see you off on your final journey!"

Burning his supreme divine authority, he paved the final path for the cosmic warship.

The previously unreachable void was completely crossed by everyone, delivering them before Chaos.

Miyamoto Musashi stood at the ship's bow, facing the despairingly powerful Primordial Father, and unleashed the strongest strike of her life!

"Farewell, gentle fool Gudao. Next time, let's experience all those things we haven't done together! You must reclaim your world!"

This strike, sacrificing her entire spiritual foundation, would become her ultimate swan song!

The time for farewell has come - this is the moment to release the world!
