Capítulo 255: Chapter 255

"That appearance... Is it Arishem, the Celestial responsible for judgment?"

Syd knew a bit about the Celestials.

This being was one of the strongest among them, and it was said that every time he arrived on a planet, he would judge whether the life on that planet should be eradicated.

For those deemed unworthy, they would face annihilation.

But now, what was this Celestial Arishem doing here?

As Syd furrowed his brows, deep in thought, he suddenly noticed a figure dressed in black in the Earth's atmosphere.

"Is that... me?"

Seeing the familiar figure, a strange expression appeared in Syd's eyes.

At that moment, Arishem descended, looking down at the person clad in black below.

Syd could vaguely sense Arishem's complete indifference toward him.

The next second, without saying a word, Arishem attacked.

A simple red energy beam shot from his fist.

To the Celestial, this beam was small, but to Syd, it was immense.

Boom!

The red energy beam, moving at unimaginable speed, reached the black-clad Syd in an instant.

Syd felt his body trying to use spatial displacement to escape, but he was held in place by an invisible force, unable to move.

Almost simultaneously, a brilliant light appeared—his ability, Sunshine, was unleashed at full power, with no light energy spared.

In a flash, the radiance of Sunshine collided with Arishem's red energy beam.

The two forces clashed, and for a moment, they were evenly matched.

In fact, the light from Sunshine began to gradually suppress the red beam.

Before long, Arishem's red energy beam was entirely disintegrated.

Syd could sense a faint wave of surprise from Arishem.

The light of Sunshine shone upon Arishem.

Unfortunately, though the light reached him, it had no effect, blocked by an invisible barrier.

Even as the barrier gradually dissipated, the radiance of Sunshine couldn't be sustained any longer.

The light slowly faded as Syd exhausted all of his light energy.

But Arishem did not hold back.

In an instant, he released an even larger red energy beam.

Boom!

The red energy beam struck Syd, who had almost no strength left to resist.

Under the destructive energy, his divine body rapidly began to disintegrate.

Skin, muscle, bone...

Golden blood splattered...

In the end, Syd vanished within the red energy beam.

The beam, unstoppable, broke through Earth's atmosphere and crashed toward the planet's surface.

Boom!

The energy beam slammed into the ground.

In an instant, a large section of land disappeared, cracking apart as the entire North American continent shook.

At that moment, nearly everyone felt it.

Or rather, they saw it all unfold through satellite footage.

"The Messiah is dead?"

"How is that possible?!"

"What kind of monster is this?"

As the massive shadow projected onto Earth's atmosphere, countless humans stared in shock and terror.

The once-invincible Messiah, dead?!

Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

"Syd!"

Logan, and the others were heartbroken.

The Brotherhood of Mutants.

"How could this happen..."

Erik, wore a grim expression.

Boom!

The impact not only shook the North American continent but also triggered tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and other catastrophic disasters across the globe.

Outer Space.

Seeing his target eliminated, Arishem showed no interest in the various disasters unfolding on Earth.

The space around him distorted, a black hole appeared, and he vanished into it.

Just as he had shown no care before, Arishem displayed no concern as he left.

Neither for the disasters befalling Earth nor for the destruction of a mere, slightly stronger ant.

Not far away, watching the scene, Syd's emotions surged.

"So, that's how I die?"

As he stood frozen, his vision suddenly blurred, and his surroundings returned to normal.

The familiar sight of the secluded alley appeared before him once more.

However, he had no interest in his surroundings now—his thoughts were consumed by what he had just witnessed.

His gaze fell on the black stone in his hand.

This thing really could show someone their death?

And he... was killed by the Celestial Arishem?

Syd's expression changed.

If he was truly destined to die, what was the point of all his efforts to grow stronger?

His mind raced as he pondered whether everything he had seen was real.

After a while, he leaned toward the belief that this wasn't just some baseless vision. He truly might die at the hands of the Celestial Arishem.

Syd frowned deeply, contemplating a solution.

Since he had seen the vision of his death, perhaps it wasn't set in stone and could still be changed...

"Wait a second..."

Suddenly, Syd realized something odd, his expression shifting slightly.

Frowning, he thought back—something seemed off about the vision he had just seen.

"Was that really a vision of the future?"

"If it was a future vision, why did my strength seem completely stagnant?"

Syd realized that in the death scene he had witnessed, he only displayed his current abilities.

For example, his Sunshine ability. If Sunshine had reached level five, the changes would have been obvious, and the range would have been much greater.

If Arishem had appeared right now and killed him, that would make sense. But in a future vision, it was strange that his power hadn't advanced at all.

He quickly dismissed the first possibility—he had a gut feeling that the scene he saw was indeed from the future, though it seemed to be some time away.

His focus shifted to the second possibility.

"Is my strength being held back?" Syd frowned.

"Wait, no... Could it be that the black stone didn't account for my increase of ability in the future?"

"Without the mimicry ability, that would explain why my strength showed no signs of advancement."

"Not even the levels of my abilities increased?"

Syd's instincts told him this was highly likely.

His mimicry ability had always seemed boundless, so it wasn't unreasonable that the black stone couldn't account for it.

Realizing this, a spark of hope flickered in Syd's eyes.

If this were true, then by simply raising the level of one of his abilities, the future vision shown by the black stone could change.

At that moment, he was tempted to improve his abilities—or perhaps unlock a new one.

Then, he could use the black stone again to see if the vision of his death had changed!

And see what expression Arishem, the Celestial, would have this time!

Capítulo 256: Chapter 256

[500PS REACHED!! Next Goal: 1000PS!]

With that thought, Syd decided to try advancing his unlocking progress, gaining a new ability, and upgrading his existing ones. He wanted to see if the vision of his death shown by the black stone would change afterward.

Looking up at the sky, he noticed that night had fallen. For now, he put aside the idea of upgrading his abilities and focused on acquiring a new power.

(Unlock Progress: 74%)

Glancing at the accumulated energy points, Syd poured all of them into the unlocking progress.

The progress bar flickered before updating.

(Unlock Progress: 78%)

There was no notification sound, which made the corner of Syd's mouth twitch slightly.

"It seems there's no new ability at 75%..."

A little disappointed, he didn't dwell on it.

Since there was no new ability at 75%, it was highly likely he'd awaken one at 80%.

With 78% already reached, 80% wasn't far off.

Had it not been for his recent trip to space, which slowed his energy accumulation, he might have already gained a new ability.

Time passed, and soon the sun rose again, bathing the world in brilliant light.

Syd continuously absorbed the sunlight. Once his internal light energy was fully restored, he began circulating it and spoke aloud.

[Divine Word EXP +1]

[Divine Power of Light EXP +1]

[Divine Body EXP +1]

A series of notifications appeared.

[Divinity EXP +1]

Occasionally, he even absorbed some faith power, which enhanced his divinity.

Gradually, all four of his abilities progressed toward level five.

As the sun climbed higher, at around ten in the morning, one of Syd's abilities advanced to level five at an astonishing speed—much earlier than expected.

After achieving level five in flight, this was his second level five ability!

[Divine Word EXP +1]

With the final notification, Syd felt a profound change within him.

[Ability: Divine Word (Max/Max) Level Five]

"Divine Word has reached level five?"

The sound that escaped Syd's mouth was now filled with a mysterious, profound resonance, echoing with a unique rhythm.

The moment he spoke, he was startled.

He realized his voice had undergone a significant transformation.

To put it simply, it now sounded like the voice of a true god.

Since he was the one hearing it, he wasn't too deeply affected.

But he couldn't help but wonder what effect it would have on others who heard this level-five Divine Word.

After a moment of curiosity, he set aside his thoughts about the voice and focused on the most crucial aspect of Divine Word.

The power of blessings or curses contained in divine speech!

With that in mind, Syd took out the Tesseract.

In a flash of blue light, he vanished from the secluded alley and reappeared in a dense forest.

The humid scent of plants and soil filled his nose.

Syd floated in the air, searching for a target.

It didn't take long for one to appear.

A black bear cautiously poked its head out, sniffing the air.

Its small black eyes lit up when it saw Syd.

However, after noticing that this being was floating in the air—something it had never seen before—it hesitated.

The unknown threat made the bear instinctively retreat, ready to abandon its approach.

After all, there were easier prey to hunt without challenging an unpredictable being.

Unfortunately for the bear, Syd had no intention of letting it go.

The next moment, Syd spoke.

"Your vision, reliant on light, shall fade."

As his words fell, Syd watched the bear closely, anticipating its reaction.

He had long wanted to try depriving a creature of its sight.

After all, it was widely known that sight depended on light.

Previously, he hadn't succeeded because his control over light wasn't strong enough. But what about using Divine Word?

The mysterious, rhythmic divine words reverberated through the area.

The statement seemed to carry the weight of truth itself—as if it was the fundamental answer to the universe.

The black bear, which had been retreating, found its vision gradually fading, until it was plunged into complete darkness.

"Roar!"

In a panic, the bear roared and thrashed about wildly, completely disoriented.

Watching its reaction, Syd immediately knew the curse had worked.

At the same time, his heightened sensitivity to light allowed him to observe something.

The bear's eyes were still physically intact, but they could no longer receive light.

It was as if its eyes were naturally incapable of perceiving light—as though they were fundamentally disconnected from it.

It was as if this condition had always been the truth, like a law of reality.

Moreover, his divine intuition told him that this state would persist indefinitely. It was a permanent effect!

"So this is a divine curse?"

Syd found it a bit terrifying.

If he casually cursed someone, that person would be doomed for life.

Truly, gods were unreasonable, domineering beings, far above the concerns of mortals.

Of course, this didn't mean Syd could use Divine Word to accomplish everything.

He could feel that when he cursed the bear, a small amount of his light energy had been consumed.

Clearly, for Divine Word to take effect, it required light energy or divine power to fuel it.

However, Syd also noticed that this energy consumption only occurred when he spoke. Once the effect took hold, no further energy was required to maintain it.

This didn't surprise him—it was as he had expected.

What did surprise him was how little light energy had been used. It was almost negligible!

If he hadn't been paying close attention, he might not have noticed the energy loss at all!

He proceeded to test the curse on two other animals, one large and one small, and found the light energy consumption to be roughly the same.

In that instant, he realized something.

Even if he cursed a person right now, the amount of light energy consumed would likely be similar!

Under the influence of Divine Word, the energy cost for cursing or blessing mortals was the same.

Syd guessed that unless the individual in question had extraordinary powers or the curse or blessing was particularly extreme, the light energy required wouldn't vary much.

Clearly, in the eyes of divine speech, the essence of mortals was all the same, with little to no distinction.

After testing the curse, Syd turned his attention to blessings.

A thought popped into his head.

"Can I now grant abilities to others?"

Syd had a feeling that if he blessed someone, they might gain abilities within the realm of light, such as optical invisibility.

Of course, since he hadn't tested it yet, he couldn't be sure if that was truly the case.
