VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Just like how the Physical world of the players was in a complete disarray because of the collision of the worlds, the world of the natives of <NO> was also going through various changes.

There were various continents on this world that people did not know much about, however, of the four major continents that had been discovered until now, there were a few things that one could not help but notice in the game's world.

There was a countdown in the physical world while on the other hand, the mages and those who could read the flow of magic, knew of the Truths, and walked the paths maintained by the various Origins.

These paths, though were not controlled by the Origins, were something many people could understand as abstract things, but those who walked on the path of a certain Truth, those who had a certain kind of ideology and were aiming for a certain kind of thing, these individuals knew well about how there was something concrete about it.

The truths existed because the world existed and even though the Origins did not realize it, the world came to be because of their very existence.

The creators only created Twelve Origins but there existed many more Origins in charge of the paths that the creators had no hand in the creations of.

They were created in response to the existence of the other Origins, and since the world itself was beginningless by nature, no Origin was older than the other even though one was created by someone else and one was born through 'Consequences'.

-Oooooooooooooooong!

Everything related to these Origins was complicated so not many understood it. However those who did understand this simple thing were Truthfinders: Those who walked a certain path in search of a certain truth.

Not everyone was like those TWO. Not everyone could follow each and everyone of the Twelve truths managed by the Twelve Origins and reach the end of these near-abstract concepts.

Most of the people, be it the archmages or the Swordsaints, the Saintesses of Light, or the Death Bringing necromancers, searched for a certain Truth.

They followed the paths that they believed would bring them closer to the truths that they were searching for, and these people were granted powers by the Origins who controlled the paths, by the paths themselves, or a unique power was born within them due to their individual understanding of the Truth that they were following.

-Boooooooooooooom!

In the world of NO, there were many individuals who were quite close to achieving a certain truth, or so they believed at least.

They possessed immense powers and could do things that were humanly impossible to fathom.

They were like gods and they were called gods by many. (Godhood) was a title in the game, but for most of the individuals, be it the players or the natives, the gods were like unreachable entities that though aren't omniscient and omnipotent, are pretty close to them.

The humans of the physical world could not see it but these individuals were seeing the collision of two worlds in real time.

They were seeing the distortion of space-time, they were seeing the collision of concepts, they were seeing how a completely foreign land was merging up with their world. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire

The energies of their world were flowing to that other world, the change was happening subtly, but that cosmic subtle change was so unfathomable to these beings that they had placed all their works away and were simply observing these changes.

They had not believed it at first… they knew about the Coin, the girl associated with That person, their meeting, and about how the TWO of them opened up the Gates which even THEY had always believed to be unbreachable.

This entire experience was unbelievable to them, seeing a different world which existed outside of their own realm, seeing their world interact with a different world and harmonizing with it without causing a disturbance in the Truths that existed in that world, teaching it, showing it what it had to offer, and ultimately forming a strange equilibrium with it which somehow seemed to be part of their world instead of something foreign.

-Swiiiiiiiiiish!

-Bang!

-Oooooooooooong!

The world was changing, and unlike the humans of that world, the normal humans of this world did not even know much about it.

The rulers and those like them were preparing for the day the equilibrium is established between two worlds and both actually connect with theirs.

It was uncertain what would happen to their world when that happens, they were uncertain how this would all play out as well, but they still did what they had to.

They made preparations for worst case scenarios with their resources, they spread word to those who could protect the people in secret, they gathered their forces, and those who needed to, started training for the big day, gaining as much experience as they possibly could.

Unlike the world of the foreigners, their world had a distributed power. Authority was not possessed by a few individuals in this world, it was given to anyone that was worthy of it including the foreigners.

There were rulers, there were monarchs, there were kings and there were queens. With the religious Theocracy of west and Orthodox cults of the east, with the forces of primordials on the northern continent, to the Humanoid tribes of the south.

All the forces who were aware of the changing tides, all the forces who were warned by their gods and leaders were stepping up, preparing for something that might just decide the fate of their world.

They were preparing for the change…

-Oooooooooooong!

[Ding!]

[You have leveled up!]

And just like them, the players- the foreigners- were doing the same.

Alex and Elio were back inside the game now that it was night in their time.

They were going to spend their time gaming as their physical body rests in the high tech chariots.

They will be a little mentally exhausted and they can sleep the whole morning if they wanted since the party they had prepared for the whole day was going to happen in the evening.

They had time for now, a few hours at least, so they had logged back.

And to their surprise, there was a battle going on on the deck of the ship.

-Oooooooooooong!

"SKHEEEEEEEE!"

A (Blue Kraken), one of the worst monsters of the deep ocean.

-Boooooooooom!

As they neared the Eye of the storm in the distant region of the underwater kingdom, they were going to meet more and more of these annoying monsters.

-Oooooooooooong!

Dealing with these beings was a simple thing when there were more than two dozen individuals with you when they had all achieved their first awakening at the very least.

Some were of the level of a ranker and there were elders in their crew who could almost be compared to the high rankers. But, they were not divinities.

There were only a few individuals, high rankers or godhood candidates within the world of NO.

They were all unique individuals, and the king of the place they were headed to was also a Deity, a being holding an inherent divinity.

The only divine entity they had with them in the ship was a small purple eyed being hidden in a silver fog, but it wasn't going to care about anyone other than the two that actually mattered to it…

-Ooooooooong!

Alex and Elio were fighting a dangerous creature and yet, with all these individuals present here, it did not seem like they were even trying anything.

The Exp was going to go to them according to their contributions anyway, so though it wasn't as good as they wanted it to, fighting these creatures at least helped them raise their levels a little.

Soon, there were going to be hundreds of creatures like this dangerous Kraken attaching their ship.

It was as big as their ship, covering a huge chunk of ocean surface before them, and yet it wasn't even in the category of a sub-boss for this ship's crew.

The things that they face when going to this certain place were much more dangerous, and when the time comes, when they are near the eye of the great storm, they are going to meet some of the most ferocious beings to ever exist.

It was going to be a great growth opportunity for many people on this ship, including Alex and Elio, Misha, Rin, and even Odin. As well as their little friends.

They were going to fight them. With the help of their companions, it wasn't going to be impossible, but it will be up to them how much they harvest from these beings.

These creatures were dangerous and as dangerous as they were, the Experience that one gained from them was just as valuable to anyone on this ship.

They might be helping Alex and Elio, but if they wanted to gain more experience than the rest of them in the line, they would have to step up their game.

And the two of them knew it…

"Huuu. That's done."

"It was easy… we can definitely take that thing down by ourselves."

The captain of the ship was looking forward to seeing the person that had defeated a divinity even before becoming one multiple times in action once again.

She did not have the powers that she possessed a while back, but she was the same [Shorekeeper of the Blade Island] that he admired and looked up to.

She had a sword, and there were going to be enemies in front of her soon…

"I can't wait for this…"

She had shown miracles to him, to a lot many more like him even without any powers, even while being in an extremely disadvantaged position.

She had once sliced the sea in half in front of many eyes…

He remembered that day as clearly as the day, so, he knew well how the small obstacles in their path would pose no challenge to her.

Not with her companions, at least…
