Odyssey of the Blind God



Out of hundreds of millions, less than a tenth of the perpetrators survived.

However, most deaths were from weaker Originals. Not too many Gods had died in the siege of the Orion Shelter, which was quite sad.

Nial had hoped that he could accelerate his progress by devouring a bunch of Gods. Unfortunately, the number of Ancient Gods killed by this Army of Devils was in the single digit.

'This time, I will be more careful while digesting the corpses of my opponents…if I fall victim to the same trap twice, I might as well kill myself right here and right now!' Nial told himself as he spread out his darkness to devour all corpses.

The reinforced dark energy inside his body was connected to the Heart of Gluttony. Because of that, it was pretty easy for Nial to devour the corpses of his opponents, using reinforced dark energy to pull everything inside the Cursed Divinity.

After he had a good talk with his friends and family, Nial felt much better. He was still a mess, but he fared much better than before.

Combining his two lifetimes was not easy and it would take some time to get back to his old self - if that was actually possible.

He would have to figure out what to do with his two lifetimes, but that was something he could do in the future.

For now, he had to digest the corpses of his opponents. This would also take quite a while and require some focus. After all, he wouldn't want to fall pray to a second Witness State. Once had been more than enough.

A month passed in the blink of an eye after the battles finished.

Many citizens of the Orion Shelter chose to leave, scared of the potential future attacks.

They knew that Nial was a good person from the way he treated everyone before he was denounced Dark Successor, and even afterward. He didn't take offense at the citizens' actions and even chose to help them leave. Nial told them where they should go and where death was likely to await them.

Basically, he was telling them which regions he would attack in the near future.

But before he would attack anyone, Nial had to finish something else.

The memories of the Witness State kept on bothering him even though he sealed it in his heart. 

However, there was also something else.

A semi-transparent space had formed inside the Heart of Gluttony. It had replaced the golden flower and it was something Nial was very familiar with.

"As a Creatoran, I can form a Soul Space. That's only obvious…but I didn't expect that the Monster Dimension would be calling for me," He mumbled to himself while his gaze turned over to a small fissure that had formed to his left.

The fissure leading to the Monster Dimension was a crack in space. It was purple and rippled through time and space. 

Nial had never found out where the Monster Dimension came from, or how exactly the Monster Dimension and the Creatoran race were connected. But that was not important right now either.

He couldn't care less about the creator of the Monster Dimension, or the connection of the Creatoran race and the Monster Dimension.

There was something else that attracted his attention.

The Monster Dimension was trying to pull Nial inside the fissure.

It was just like it had been in the past!

Nial Lacardia had been pulled inside the Monster Dimension at the tender age of four. 

This didn't happen to Nial Orin when he was four years old. Only now that he was a century old and had awoken his Bloodline's Power did this phenomenon occur to him.

What did that mean?

Nial was not too sure but he wanted to find out.

The Monster Dimension never really pulled anyone inside it. Its sentience had some sort of pulling force that attracted the Summoners of the Creatoran race, but that was already it.

Nial was the only one who had ever been pulled inside the Monster Dimension, and that was for Goldy, the Goldscale Serpent. 

Thinking about Goldy and Psy, the only two familiars he could remember from the Witness State, Nial felt a little melancholic. He smiled bitterly and took a stride toward the purple fissure.

"If I can find answers by going to the Monster Dimension, I might as well go," He mumbled to himself before telling the others that he would be away for a while. 

Nial was pretty sure that he wouldn't take long in the Monster Dimension, so there was no need to bother about making any preparations. 

His enemies wouldn't attack him right now. After all, the Army of Devils was still present and instructed to kill his enemies the moment they released their killing intent in the direction of the Orion Shelter.

As for the reconstruction of the shelter, Nial could only spend his fortune, and finish up his work as Saint Runicier. Other than that, there was nothing for him to do. He was only in the way.

Thus, by solving his own issues and supporting others in every possible way, Nial could fix all problems, somehow…probably.

He stepped into the fissure while restricting his senses to the bare minimum. Teleporting through time and space was quite taxing on Nial, especially after his senses became even more sensitive than before.

He could hear, feel, smell, and hear everything, quite literally. After ascending godhood, all of his abilities had grown much stronger. This included the Curse, Hodur's Heir. 

It enhanced his senses drastically, resulting in a major increase in his combat prowess. He could predict most attacks by sensing the surrounding mana, the airflow, and the sounds all around him.

That was something most of his opponents underestimated, and it was also quite bothersome whenever he teleported somewhere. The massive amount of information that flooded him was not easy to take in and digest, after all.

'I am really back here…' 

He never expected that he would actually return to the Monster Dimension, but here he was. 

"Wait…" Nial suddenly mumbled as he perceived his immediate surrounding.

He found himself standing in the center of a large clearing, surrounded by a vast and dense forest. Towering trees with deep roots and sprawling finger-like branches extended high into the sky, creating a canopy that filters the sunlight around him.

The canopy cast shade over everything below, manifesting a mysterious and exotic aura onto the clearing and the forest around. Even though the clearing was not small, there was only a little sunlight thanks to the towering trees all around.

The trees that seemed to connect heaven and earth through their massive size were also the reason why the forest floor turned into a carpet of leaves, broken branches that were bigger in size than some trees would ever be, and small rocks that jut out of the ground like small fangs.

'What the hell?'

The rustling leaves, the chirping birds, the buzzing insects, and the occasional roars and growls of predators felt familiar, and they rang in his ears even louder than his wildly beating heart.

'Why am I here again?'

Nial had been teleported to the humongous forest where he had been at the age of four when he first entered the Monster Dimension…as Nial Lacardia…
