Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 124: Nyx Against Chaos (2)



"Sit," Chaos said, and a room formed in the spatial space, two armchairs and a table formed in the room, and Nyx\'s place was revealed.

Once Nyx was seated, she began to speak:

"Why did you dare to do such a brazen thing, father?" Nyx asked, the hatred in her heart so great, the sadness so deep and the disappointment so loud that there was no way to express it.

It would not be wrong to say that Nyx and Erebus had started their journey with Desmond. Desmond himself was young but old for human life when he felt the presence of Nyx and Erebus and met them.

Yet the two loved Desmond so much and cared for him so much that Nyx named the masked statue in front of her temple Desmond.

Desmond meant Gracious Defender, and with his name alone, he had declared to all the gods and goddesses that he was the protector of mankind.

The lives and honour of Nyx and Erebus had been put in jeopardy many times, after all, many gods and goddesses had been hunted by those who rallied around Desmond, and these two towering beings were not always sources of power at the top.

While Nyx and Erebus were hunting above the 75th floor, in what is now the god realm, Desmond was busy hunting the gods on the lower floors.

As a result, with all the attention and so on, Desmond had saved Nyx, Erebus, and even Chronos on several occasions.

Not only that. Desmond had founded the Sun Empire and, as James had learned earlier, created the Church of Night, each to protect the existence and honour of Nyx. These were two regions that were still trying to fulfil their mission after millions of years.

Whoever knew what had happened, including Chaos himself, could not ignore what Desmond had done.

Desmond was the greatest man who had ever been born, lived and died.

And his descendant were now in the family of Chaos-Borns inside the tower.

Nyx was incredibly angry about this. She could forget her best friend, she could do it for billions of years, but James should be under her protection, and his descendants should be under her protection. Nyx knew how lazy her father was, and there was no way Nyx could forgive herself if Desmond\'s legacy had been damaged.

It was the first rule of the family code.

Family was more important than her own life.

\'"I warned him, he was the one who didn\'t listen," Chaos said. Nyx could hardly keep herself from going insane, her hands and feet were shaking, even her eyes were teary, and she couldn\'t understand how her father could say such stupid words.

"What the hell are you talking about, how are you any different from those gods Desmond chose to give his life to kill when you refused to help the one you blessed?!" Nyx suddenly shouted.

"Those were the words I said to him before I blessed him when I asked him what more he wanted to do, girl. I told Desmond in no uncertain terms that he was going to die, that if he refused to become a god, he would die. Humans...they never listen to us, gods." Chaos replied, his sadness evident in his words.

When Nyx heard these words, she squinted her eyes and said, "Show me...Show me the time he spoke to you."

Chaos shook his head as if he didn\'t want to do this when he heard his daughter\'s request, but then he couldn\'t resist and handed a window in front of her.

Nyx could see Desmond through the window, seeing how much his best friend, whose face she barely recognised, looked like James.

Or rather, it was astonishing how much James looked like his ancestor.

"No one can know Chaos, you can\'t tell them, you have to erase everything, they mustn\'t remember me," Desmond said suddenly, the tiredness and sadness in his gaze seemed to be destroying Chaos.

"I don\'t understand why you want to do this, you know you\'re the only person I\'ve blessed, whose heart I can\'t read, what are you trying to do?" asked Chaos.

"You know them, old man, Nyx and Erebus, Ra and Chronos, Gaia and Atlas, the others. They won\'t understand, they will try to find me and bring me back, they will try to force me through the 75th floor." Desmond said, the fatigue in his body becoming more prominent.

"I\'m tired, old man...I\'m a human being, one who doesn\'t want to be a god. I\'m insanely tired and I just want to close my eyes and move on, never to open them again. I want a wife I\'ve always dreamed of, children, sons and daughters I can teach.

I want my presence erased from the tower until the time comes until you find one even brighter than my soul." Desmond added, the smile on his face stabbing Chaos, who was watching what was happening, in his heart.

"I see...What is your plan? Tell me." Chaos said, that as much as he did not want to admit it, he could not heal him, it was obvious that he was ready to refuse.

"Create a reality, a universe for me, stars, planets and a world, people, the beginning of everything," said Desmond, the brightness in his eyes shining blindingly.

"I should give you a longer life then, such a long life, till you want to die, a young body, one that is not sick but will die at a certain time, one that you can earn on the condition that you cannot return to the tower as you wish, one that can be your family, one that no one can reach you." Chaos replied and Desmon smiled and said, "Yes, just like that."

"Nyx and Erebus, Chronos and Ra, Gaia and Atlas, all the remaining titans, all the gods who want to follow you will go mad when they find out what happened, you know that, don\'t you?" Chaos asked, and the answer he would hear behind him would be what comforted him.

Desmond was smiling, closing his eyes and looking around.

"That\'s why you should erase everything until the time comes," he said.
