Odyssey of the Blind God

"What are you talking about?"

Nial was a little astonished about the Oracle's words, and couldn't really react properly. He took a while to get back to his senses.

The Oracle didn't give him an answer and kept looking at him. In her opinion, her words couldn't be misunderstood. That meant, Nial was intentionally trying not to understand her!

Thinking that way, the Oracle bit her lower lip.

"You do realize that it's way too dangerous to stay by my side? Fighting the Advocate of the Pryard will probably lead to my death. In fact, even if the fight against him doesn't end like this, I am likely to die from facing hundreds, if not a thousand or more powerful Ancient Gods," Nial pointed out.

Even if he didn't like the situation that was highly likely to occur, it was pretty obvious that he would end up fighting a second Great War. That meant, more than a quarter of the Universe would fight against him, while he had only Damian's Devils and loyal races at his disposal.

They might have gotten stronger than before, especially the races that had cultivated their prodigies for eons for this day, but it was not as if the Primordials and Ancients had been standing around doing nothing.

"You won't die."

That was the only thing the Oracle said in response to his serious comment. She smiled at him and felt like caressing his chin once again.

Her heart told her to get even closer to him and do whatever she had imagined doing when the Universe told her that she could finish her last mission while staying next to a Fate Changer. However, her head told her that she couldn't overdo it. She had to approach Nial slowly and make sure that he wouldn't push her away.

Everything she had wished for would break apart otherwise.

"What about the prophecy? Don't you have to pay attention to it?" Nial asked, looking for a way to stay by himself.

It was not as if he had something against the Oracle. In fact, he quite liked her. She was beautiful and cared a lot about him. Her personality was not bad either. There was nothing he didn't like about her. He couldn't name one thing right now, at least.

"The Universe chose that it will be enough if I stay by your side…well either your side or the Undying. I don't like the Undying and li…well…I like you…mo…yes, I like you!" The Oracle said, squealing when she was about to finish. Her cheeks and ears turned even redder than before and she couldn't look at Nial anymore.

The Oracle turned around and tapped her mouth lightly as if she wanted to punish her mouth for the words that had come out of it.

Couldn't you have said that I like you 'more', instead of repeating yourself twice, the Oracle cursed herself, desperately hoping that she didn't make a big mistake just now.

Nial was still pretty sure that he was missing a few pieces of information. He could only perceive the Oracle tiptoeing around, tightly holding her right hand with her left to make sure that she wouldn't suddenly touch his cheek.

The Oracle's words were pretty confusing and they left out a great deal of detail.

'Does that mean even the Universe thinks that the Advocate of the Pryard is a bigger problem than Hoert? So why did they focus on the prophecy all this time? Did they just forget that the Advocate of the Pryard exists?'

Too many things didn't make any sense and the Oracle noticed his suspicion.

"The Prophecy will come true, sometime in the future. However, the Universe doesn't know when exactly that will be. Hoert shouldn't be interested in this Universe yet. However, the Devourer of the Universe seems to be a little curious about you, which is also why Hoert probably used the Realm of Forgotten Time to make sure that you and the Undying will get to know about his existence.

But that interest shouldn't be enough to travel to this isolated Universe because Hoert won't even be able to replenish the power it has to use to travel through the Void with the energy it will get from devouring this Universe.

That is also why the Universe it wouldn't be an issue to divert your focus for a moment and to defeat the Advocate of the Pryard before returning to focusing on increasing your strength!" The Oracle explained, handing over a few more pieces of information that Nial could use.

There were still many questions Nial had in mind but he felt too agitated to even ask them.

'This piece of shit really wants us to do nothing else but take care of his shit, does he?' He asked himself, nearly blurting out his honest thoughts.

The Universe was pretty selfish, demanding him and the Undying to take care of his bullshit. He was pretty sure that the Oracle's words were the words she had been told to say by the Universe's sentience.

She seemed a little uncomfortable with the last sentence she had said.

"Well. I will take care of my cultivation progress. The Universe can focus on accumulating enough energy to give birth to a few more Primordials and Ancients, otherwise, they might go instinct. After all, the Universe should reimburse me by cleaning up the mess I will create by doing its job," Nial just said before he focused on the Oracle intently.

"So, you're staying by my side?"

"My Fate…changed. I can stay by your side, yes…I mean, if you allow me to…" The Oracle said as her mind blanked out. She forgot about the seriousness of the earlier conversation and blushed.

That was going to be interesting…
