Chapter 101:Declaration
Fate was trying to provoke Ank's image.
"You know, Ank, you are foolish.
I always think you are the most powerful. You cannot be afraid of anyone.
But my thoughts are wrong.
You are a coward.
There was the most powerful, most cunning, and most intelligent Emperor,
Who calculates every move. No one ever survives after insulting him.
Sorry, Ank image, but you disappointed the Ank name."
And slowly, Fate started insulting him.
Creation understood what she was doing.
First, she had doubts, but now it was confirmed.
But she could not move from her place.
Ank was hearing everything but not reacting. He also did not understand why he was not offended by Fate's words.
"So Ank has changed so much. I also want to meet him, Ank's image, thought," but he was stopped when he heard one word from Fate that he could not ignore, even if he became a saint.
"Ank, I was totally disappointed with you.
Now my question is, how would she react if she saw you like this, that you are afraid of me?
Try to talk with me so you cannot fight me.
You already lost to me before the fight started.
You knew she liked you because you were the one who changed her fate but could not save her, but you tried all you could.
Tell me, Ank, how does she feel about the current you who became a coward?
Afraid of fighting.
And the biggest hypocrisy is that you were doing all this in the name of your mother.
You lost all your respect in my eyes, and I bet you lost respect in her eyes.
I hate to admit it, but for the first time, I did not hate her for this decision."
Ank's eyes became red due to anger, and he shouted,
"Fate, you crossed your limit."
But suddenly, a thought came into his mind.
"Ank, I hope you did not change, but I am wrong. You changed.
You were not my Ank image.
I knew even my Ank image was powerful enough to destroy this Fate.
And I am disappointed with you, and I knew Ank would also become like you.
You both disappointed me.
I hate…"
Before she completed her sentence,
Ank shouted,
"Enough."
Full of fury.
And the universe stopped hearing Ank image's words.
"You knew, Fate, what you have done.
And what you will become after this."
Fate showed a serious look, but inside she was smiling.
"Just one push, just one push, and I achieved what I wanted.
Oh, what can you do?
You forgot who I am."
And again she released divine energy, but this time Ank image released his Emperor aura, destroying Fate's divine energy completely.
Fate became tense but quickly moved to her last phase of his plan.
"So what can you do? Like you declared Luck yours, can you have the guts to do the same to me?
You know you have no courage.
If you do, you would become the universe's biggest villain.
And you cannot afford this."
"Enough," he shouted again.
"I, Ank, hereby declare you are mine.
Fate, you are mine.
Only mine."
And boom.
Explosions happened everywhere as Fate jumped from her position in her divine form due to happiness.
"You know what you have done!" Creation shouted from her place.
But Ank ignored her. Ank's eyes became completely red, and his pupils were missing due to anger.
And he shouted, "Fate, you would die."
And launched himself toward Fate, starting to change into his Emperor form.
White light covered his body completely.
But before he completed,
One word he heard,
That disabled all anger from his head.
"Ank, if you become angry again, I would hate you.
I don't like seeing your angry face."
How?
And when he looked at Fate, he understood it was all Fate's doing.
Fate smiled.
"Finally, I achieved what I want.
Finally."
Ank was confused.
"What are you saying?" he quickly asked.
Fate narrowed her eyes at Ank's image.
"You know the meaning of this declaration, don't you?"
"I know that," Ank's image replied.
"And you were thinking that now I had to beg for my life, but you were mistaken about one thing, Ank's image.
You were only his image, not real Ank, so you do not understand.
What I want, what every goddess who is obsessed with Ank wants.
By declaring using you, you linked me with him.
You knew the goddess who had the highest chance with Ank was the Goddess of Luck because of this.
He hates us, I mean gods or goddesses."
And she declared, her words echoing in every corner of the universe. Every god, goddess, even demons, mortals, celestials, dragons, divine beings, and every race present in the universe could hear her words.
"I am going to change Ank's heart, fate, destiny, and everything about him in the next ten years.
So I openly challenge all the beings who think that Ank is hers or Ank would never change. Come into Duskwild in the next ten years.
This challenge is for every being in the universe. No one is spared, even if it is gods, mortals, or any divine beings.
Remember, this is my last chance. No, this is my right.
This is our last chance to carve our names in his life for eternity.
So I made the stage for all of you.
All pieces are set, only players are needed.
So now let's make Ank's life full of trouble and punish him," she said with a smile.
"Let's make his life hell. Let's get our revenge for making us wait for billions of years."
And white light energy was released from her divine form in every direction of the universe.
"This is my gift for everyone who would participate in this event. I am sharing my fate with everyone, so this is the last chance for everyone."
And then she looked at Ank's image, whose mouth was open in shock.
He could not understand what was happening.
"Thank you.
Without you, this would never happen.
So we will remember you as our biggest helper in achieving our dream.
But remember, Ank would surely kill you after this."
And she vanished while smiling.
Ank's image's face became horrified, remembering what he would do to him. Then he knew what he had done.
"I am done for."
And he fainted in empty space.
And the battle had started, but it would give lots of trouble to Ank.
