Will Of Chaos



I woke up feeling refreshed only to find Vanessa, Alice, and Silvia waiting for me to wake up. 

As soon as I leave the World Tree's tangle of roots, they start wanting to tell me various things, but first, we go to another place away because of the Elves working near the World Tree. 

We were in a place away from where the Elf village was being prepared for reconstruction and we were also far from the World Tree. 

The three began to tell me several things while I was drinking a barrel of blood due to the monumental hunger I had. 

Silvia told me about what happened after I lost consciousness, it seems everything worked out and the World Tree was fine, but the same cannot be said about the Gray Elf King. 

He lost his arm and seriously injured his Soul himself, he can't be an Elf King anymore, and his lost arm can't even be healed with Magic or potions due to the damage his Soul is left, a prosthetic will have to be built for him and Nicole seems to be excited about it, looks like she's pestering the Elf King about the prosthetic's specifications. 

Aside from the incapacitated Gray Elf King, it seems that some Old Elves who were positioned outside the forest for the creation of the large-scale ritual in which Silvia stake served as the center, many of these Old Elves were severely injured and some were even killed. 

It seems that it wasn't just the creatures we fought that attacked them, there were others of which 1 was captured and others were killed, he is being left out for now due to several more important things the Elves have to do so far. 

Vanessa was next and told me what my sisters were doing during the entire combat against the creatures under that Evil God's control, it seems that my sisters, the Hero of Justice, and a few others were fighting not against the creatures controlled by the Evil God, they they were fighting other enemies. 

This was something that didn't occur to me, I didn't stop to think about this possibility even for a second why it never came to my mind, the whole time I only looked at the Evil God and his minions or monsters, not once did I think I could there may be unknown enemies taking advantage of the situation. 

But now listening to it makes sense, Elizabeth told me a little about it, but at that time I still had a lot on my mind and I didn't stop to think more deeply about it, the only thing that came to my mind was other Evil Gods and those associated to them. 

Now I realize that I was being very superficial in my way of thinking, Evil Gods are not the only ones who gain something from this, there are also Demon Gods who are really bad, and there are also people whose greed goes to such heights that they can't get any more see the consequences of their actions. 

I wanted to know what they did with all the culprits, it was just my sisters fighting these "opportunists" I would be sure that everyone was killed, but I didn't believe that Alan would kill all the enemies, either for them to be tried or interrogated, he didn't would have killed them all, I can't speak about the others participating in this hunt since I don't know about them, but at least one among them may have thought of capturing enemies instead of killing. 

When I asked about it Vanessa said she didn't know, it seems that Caitlyn was taking all the prisoners, even Elizabeth wasn't killing the enemies, I thought that was weird and that's when Alice starts talking about what she's been up to. 

She tells how Caitlyn simply took her to help with something and led everyone to a place where there was nothing until Caitlyn appeared out of nowhere with a bottle of wine in her hand. 

"It took you a long time, do you know how hard it is to take care of that thing?" (Caitlyn) 

"Take care of what?" (I) 

Caitlyn already appears to complain to me, but with my response showing that I don't know what she's talking about, she turns to Alice. 

"Haven't told him yet?" (Caitlyn) 

"I came here for this, I thought it would be easier to show since I don't know how to explain this thing." (Alice) 

"Natasha seemed to know what it was, but she wouldn't tell me and ran off to get something to eat while complaining that Margareth wasn't around." (Caitlyn) 

"Come inside soon." (Caitlyn) 

Caitlyn waves her hand and something brushes past me, that's when I realize it's a barrier that has expanded to pull everyone inside. 

I only needed to look forward to see the only thing that was inside the barrier, it was a cocoon emanating various types of energy with a focus on Curses, to my eyes the entire cocoon was an extremely concentrated cluster of Curses, it was such an amount of cursed energy that was affecting the space around him. 

I figured the barrier was more about containing and hiding this cocoon than protecting it, it looks like Caitlyn stayed here to protect this thing. 

The cocoon was all red and black, but I could sense the energies of Mana, Ki, and Spiritual Energy as well as Demonic Energy. 

I also realized that the cocoon was made using my threads and my blood was spread all over this thing, I could even feel traces of my Holy Power, Authority, and Aura in this cocoon. 

But the scariest thing was the many faces that formed on the surface of the cocoon as if there were people inside pressing their faces against the cocoon wall trying to get out. 

I also noticed an energy that took me a while to recognize, it was something that I felt a lot of times, it was the same energy that I felt in Hela's Family Summoning ceremony and when those flowing currents appeared to carry the Corrupted Souls during that battle, the energy that I am feeling is that of Hell. 

"I would like to know what this thing is and how you created this monster, I am truly impressed." (Caitlyn) 

"..." (I) 

Caitlyn seemed to be happy, I couldn't understand why, honestly this thing has the most evil appearance I've ever seen, everything about it is screaming horror movie wrong to the point that I can hear the voices of the protagonists of these movies in my mind talking to burn all the bad. 

"Father?" (Vanessa) 

"Yes, Vanessa?" (I) 

"I could be wrong, but could this cocoon be...?" (Vanessa) 

"Exactly that cocoon." (I) 

"Why is this thing here?" (Vanessa) 

"Actually, why does this thing look so…why does it look that way?" (Vanessa) 

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't know?" (I) 

"If it was true and Nix was around, yes." (Vanessa) 

"I have an idea how it got here, but why it appears is a mystery." (I) 

I could feel an Aura inside the Cocoon, my Aura that I felt in the Cocoon is only on the outside and that's why I can't feel the inside of the cocoon well, but I'm sure it's not the same Aura from that time, it was totally different in a fundamental sense. 

I see Alice walk towards the cocoon that had many lines moving around her along with very dangerous energy, but I didn't feel like stopping Alice, I could feel the cocoon's reaction to me as well as my Aura. 

Just as expected Alice ran her hand through the cocoon without being assaulted by the lines or the dangerous energy and command of the cocoon. 

Looking at it now I remember seeing it during combat, when I hid in my shadow I remember seeing this cocoon inside my shadow moments before I left. 

The only times I stepped in or out of the shadows was when I tried to get close to the gates of darkness now towards the end of combat, but I don't remember seeing the pod back then, if that was when I'd last seen it could only have been the Shadow Goblins I created, there was a point where I made them all come out of the Shadows at the same time and the pod may have been pushed out. 

"(If I had been the one to put him out I would have noticed, so it must have been the Shadow Goblins' moment.)" (I) 

If I remember correctly, I used the Shadow Goblins to delay the enemies in place before using a powerful attack to destroy them all together, meaning that pod was possibly there as well. 

"If you know what that is, speak up, it's not often I'm curious about something." (Caitlyn) 

"How can I explain this..." (I) 

"Some time ago we fought against the people of the Temple of Law being commanded by an idiot, but specifically an idiot Judge that made me very angry." (I) 

"After defeating him I used a curse on him and trapped him in a cocoon as punishment, that was when we were heading to the Floating Island." (I) 

"I thought you killed him after the first few days since no one saw the Cocoon again." (Vanessa) 

"I didn't want to upset anyone and I needed to apply energy to the curse from time to time, not to mention the Curse has been linked to me in a certain way since I cast it on that idiot." (I) 

"I keep it in my shadow where it can absorb surplus energy more easily and without me having to do anything." (I) 

"But I don't feel the presence of someone from the Temple of Law, much less a Divine Blessing." (Caitlyn) 

"And why is that thing still here?" (Vanessa) 

"I had forgotten about him..." (I)
