After absorbing Apsu's power, the rampaging energies of the Realm of Chaos gradually settled, as if offering a silent salute to a newborn Absolute God.
Axis stood firm in the void, and the power flowing through his body was no longer mere divinity but the cosmic laws that contained the very origins of creation and destruction.
He clenched his fist lightly, feeling within him the surging might that could effortlessly reshape galaxies and reduce all things to nothingness.
"So this is the power of an Absolute God..." Axis spoke calmly, yet his voice carried an authority that made the entire Realm of Chaos tremble. His left eye was like the dawn of the universe, where nebulae were born; his right eye resembled the end of all things, eternal annihilation. Creation and destruction had achieved perfect balance within him, a grand cosmic unification.
Athena watched the transformed Axis with eyes that shimmered with wonder. There was awe in her gaze, but also profound satisfaction. Her husband had ascended to one of the highest divine thrones of this universe. It was a tremendous blessing, and proof of just how true her judgment had been. She had earned the title of Goddess of Wisdom many times over.
"It's time to end the war on Earth." Axis's gaze pierced through endless time and space, instantly locking onto the battlefield at Pallas Castle on Earth. "Athena, let us go. The time has come to finish this."
Axis extended his hand and gently wrapped it around Athena's waist. Without any further motion, the chaotic energies around them spontaneously formed a stable corridor.
Under the will of an Absolute God, wherever Axis stood became the rule, became the truth of the universe itself. In the next moment, both their figures vanished from the Realm of Chaos.
On Earth at that moment, the ruins of Pallas Castle were a scene of devastation.
The Specter army, led by veterans of the Lost Canvas era such as Rhadamanthys, was simultaneously suppressing the remnants of both the Saints and the Steel Saints.
Grail continued to toy with Kouga and her companions, the clash of Omega Power scattering crimson light across the sky. Spurred on by the Goddess of Omega, the new generation of underdogs had also awakened fragments of the Omega Power, and their Bronze Cloths had begun to transform.
Unlike the Divine Cloths of the previous generation worn by Seiya and his comrades, this was no miracle wrought by the Goddess's blood. It was a miracle born from the great explosion of cosmic laws.
Yet even with this newfound strength, the Goddess of Omega was still capable of suppressing them all. What caught Grail's attention, however, was the boy among them who wore the Equuleus Cloth.
From the boy, Grail sensed a power equal to that of her father Darkseid, perhaps even surpassing him. This child was the true enemy.
Ultraman stood with one foot upon the unconscious form of Titan, casually toying with the dimmed Sword of Creation in his hand as he glanced disdainfully at the terrified enemies around him.
Thanatos and Hypnos had long since dispatched their respective opponents. Gallia and Aegaeon lay sprawled on the ground, both their swords scattered beside them.
After receiving Axis's enhancement, the divine power of Thanatos and Hypnos had ascended to a new realm. Dispatching opponents who were still at the mortal level posed no challenge.
The gap between gods and mortals remained immense, and the Four Heavenly Kings did not possess the explosive potential of the underdog protagonists. They could not stand against true gods.
"Boring! How utterly boring! Is this the strength of so-called champions in this universe? This is the divine sword that supposedly created the world? Beneath my iron fist, it amounts to nothing." Ultraman roared with arrogant laughter, his voice cracking the very ground beneath them.
"Not even worthy of warming me up! A pile of trash, every one of them. Hahaha, utterly useless!"
Saori Kido and the Gold Saints, including Seiya, wore expressions of grim determination. The defensive formation they had assembled was buckling beneath the terrible divine pressure radiating from the Specters, Grail, and Ultraman.
The enemies before them were so overwhelmingly powerful that despair seemed inevitable. Ultraman, who called himself the God of Strength, possessed power that defied measurement.
At that very moment, a vast pressure beyond words descended upon the entire battlefield without warning.
A deep hum resonated through the air.
Time itself seemed to freeze. Every combatant, whether Specter, Saint, or Steel Saint, found their movements arrested as though pinned by an invisible giant hand. Their souls trembled, their Cosmos wailed in lament. It was an absolute crushing of their very existence at the level of being itself.
The sky abruptly darkened, but not because clouds had veiled the sun. The laws of the universe themselves had been forcibly rewritten. A chaotic nebula had taken the place of the blue sky, and within that nebula, what appeared to be an entire multiverse was being born and dying in endless cycles.
Two figures appeared silently at the center of the battlefield, as though they had stood there since the beginning of time.
The Absolute God Axis had descended upon the battlefield. The true power of an Absolute God was beyond anything mortals could imagine.
Just as mortals could never truly comprehend the Big Bang, to an Absolute God, the Big Bang was merely routine work. After all, creating a universe required producing a Big Bang.
The power of Omega was the power of the Big Bang. By that logic, an Absolute God ought to possess Omega Power as well. Some settings really were rather poorly thought out.
"Lord Axis! We humbly welcome your return!" Grail, Ultraman, Thanatos, Hypnos, and every Specter dropped to one knee in an instant, their heads bowed deep, their voices fervent with awe and reverence.
By now, all of Axis's followers had surmised that he had attained that power: the power of an Absolute God.
He had become a true absolute being, possessing power on the level of cosmic law itself, transcending all things.
Saori Kido, Seiya, Kouga, and the others stared in horror. Axis simply stood there, his frame not particularly imposing, yet he seemed to fill the heavens and earth, to have become the very center of the universe.
Just by standing there, Axis caused the divine power within their bodies to nearly freeze. They could not summon even the faintest thought of resistance. Athena, who stood beside him, radiated an aura far deeper and more powerful than the Athena of their own world.
"An... Absolute God?!" Saori Kido cried out involuntarily. As a goddess herself, she could feel the supreme aura emanating from Axis, an aura that surpassed even the Primordial Gods, utterly distinct from her father Zeus or even Hades as she remembered them.
It was the power of a Creator. This was nothing like Apsu, who had been weakened to the point that even his true body could not exert significant combat strength. This was a true Absolute God who could walk freely through the cosmos.
Victory was impossible. Utterly impossible. Beings of this magnitude were no longer something Saints could contend with. Even with the awakening of Omega Power, hope was a fragile thing.
Saori Kido's eyes drifted toward her counterpart from the other universe. She had never imagined that the contest for the title of the one true Athena would conclude in such a manner.
She herself had only set half a foot into the realm of the Primordial Gods, while her counterpart had already become a Primordial Goddess outright, and her counterpart's husband was an Absolute God beyond that. Saori Kido's gaze shifted to Seiya beside her.
Could you create a miracle one more time? Pegasus, could you fell another god, even an Absolute God? At this moment, the only one she could rely upon was Pegasus.
"Lord Axis, all enemies have been defeated. Only those you specified remain," Thanatos and Hypnos reported.
"Lord Axis, the final battle is upon us. We leave the decision in your hands." Grail came to Axis's side as he spoke.
That deity, whose power rivaled her own father's, was on the verge of awakening. It was time for the boss to take over.
Axis's gaze swept indifferently across the battlefield before settling on Pegasus Kouga, who was being suppressed by Grail, battered and bloodied yet still glaring up at him defiantly.
"The Power to Slay Gods... fascinating indeed." Axis could sense that the peculiar force within Kouga's body could pose even a faint threat to his newly attained Absolute God body. The threat was minuscule, yes, but it was real, which confirmed what Chronos and Athena had told him. The Pegasus Constellation was no ordinary thing.
There were now two Pegasus Saints present, one from the previous generation and one from the new, which meant two portions of God-Slaying Power.
Axis ignored Saori Kido, Seiya, and the others, who were watching in stunned uncertainty. Instead, he slowly raised his hand.
"Saturn, you've watched long enough. Won't you show yourself? Or shall I crush these toys of yours with my own hands?" Axis had set his sights on one of the new generation underdogs, the boy wearing the Equuleus Bronze Cloth.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"None of us is named Saturn." The new generation underdogs looked confused.
Only Eden, whose mind was clearer, glanced at Subaru beside him. As he had suspected. He wondered whether this awakened being could possibly handle the entity called Axis.
"I wasn't speaking to you. Saturn, won't you come out?" Axis pressed on, the pressure of his Absolute God power bearing down on them all once more.
His voice was calm, yet it rang like a great bell, resonating in the deepest part of every soul present, piercing through the void to reach some hidden dimension.
After a moment of silence, the space at the center of the battlefield rippled like the surface of water, and a youth in modest blue and red robes stepped forward. He had short black hair and a serene, peaceful presence.
His arrival brought no oppressive aura. He looked, if anything, like an ordinary boy from next door. But every god present, including Athena, felt their pupils contract sharply.
Because the moment he appeared, the space and time beneath his feet had fallen into absolute stillness. This was not the suppression of Cosmos; it was something far more fundamental, the very laws of time bowing in submission.
And somewhere along the way, the Equuleus Saint Subaru had vanished. Or rather, he had never truly existed at all. The instant the avatar of the Transcendent God awakened, his body had been shattered to pieces and erased entirely from this universe.
"Transcendent God Avatar..." Athena said gravely, tightening her grip on the Staff of Nike.
The youth, Subaru, the avatar of Saturn, looked at Axis calmly, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
"Outsider, you have devoured Apsu. You have stolen the authority of creation in this universe." Subaru's voice was ethereal, betraying neither anger nor pleasure. "Your existence has disturbed the established flow of time.
"I came to this universe to test Athena, and your arrival has disrupted my plans. Do you intend to make an enemy of me?"
An Absolute God was indeed formidable, but before a Transcendent God, even the greatest Absolute God amounted to nothing. Even if this was merely an avatar, the principle held.
"Cosmic law dictates that the strong devour the weak. Apsu fell, and I took what was his. What of it?" Axis replied evenly. "As for the flow of time? From this day forward, I shall redefine it."
"Arrogance," Saturn breathed, the word barely more than a whisper. In the next instant, he slowly raised a finger and pointed lightly at Axis. The terrifying power of a Transcendent God erupted forth.
"Stillness."
There was no earth-shaking burst of energy, yet every law surrounding Axis, including time, space, light, shadow, energy, matter, and even the flow of concepts themselves, came to an absolute standstill in that instant.
This was a power of time that surpassed the entire Cosmos system, a temporal authority drawn from the Transcendent Gods themselves, capable of returning all things to the starting point of eternal annihilation.
Saori Kido, Seiya, and the others looked on with horror and despair in their eyes. Before such power, even thought itself became almost impossibly difficult.
Yet at the very heart of the absolute stillness, Axis merely allowed the corner of his mouth to curl upward.
"Hahaha, the authority over time by a Transcendent God, wondrous indeed, but to still me? You'll have to do better than that!" Axis laughed heartily.
The Cosmos of an Absolute God exploded forth from within Axis. It was a wholly new power, founded upon Apsu's primordial creative might, infused with the energy of the God of Destruction, the divinity of the Supreme kai, and the Saiyan blood of battle.
"HAAA!!"
A great roar shook the battlefield.
Centered upon Axis, the powers of creation and destruction surged forth at once. The Transcendent God's authority that should have frozen time and space itself was forcibly torn open and shattered apart by this violent, overwhelming absolute force.
During his time in the Warhammer universe, Axis had witnessed the power of time countless times. He no longer feared it.
In preparation for this very battle, Axis had learned much about the workings of temporal power from Chronos before coming over to this universe.
Chronos had drawn great divine power from Axis, and Axis had likewise drawn the power of time from this Transcendent God. They had simply taken what each needed from the other.
The avatar of a Transcendent God was weaker than the original, and so it could not hold Axis bound. Moreover, the violent battle instincts of the Saiyans had now erupted in full.
Even as a god, Axis remained a battle-oriented deity, his combat strength far exceeding that of an Absolute God born through ordinary means.
The frozen space around them shattered like broken glass, splintering into countless pieces and returning to normal. Currents of wild energy swept outward in every direction, blasting the nearby Specters and Steel Saints far away.
For the first time, a clear ripple of emotion appeared in Subaru's eyes. It was astonishment.
"You actually broke free of time's bondage..."
"Perhaps if your true body came in person, we might have a real fight. But a mere avatar daring to pass judgment upon me?" Axis sneered. He stepped forward, and in that instant crossed the space between them. His fist, blazing with chaotic starlight and the purple energy of destruction, was already at Subaru's face.
"Enough talk."
Saturn dared not be careless. He immediately crossed both arms in defense, and the temporal flow around his body accelerated by hundreds of millions of times in an instant, forming countless layers of temporal barriers.
Fist met temporal barriers.
A thunderous crash erupted.
An indescribable roar exploded outward. Layer after layer of temporal barriers shattered, only for new layers to form just as quickly. The terrible shockwave of energy expanded outward in a perfect sphere. The ruins of Pallas Castle were obliterated in an instant, the very ground sinking dozens of meters lower.
Seiya, Shiryu, and the others were spared from being pulverized only because Athena had hastily raised her golden barrier around them, but their eyes were filled with horror nonetheless. A battle of this magnitude was something they could barely even bear to witness.
Ultraman, Grail, and the other gods were forced to channel their full strength to resist the shockwave, their reverence for Axis's power growing to immeasurable heights.
Subaru was sent flying backward by Axis's punch. His arms trembled faintly, and his face was no longer composed.
"Your power... truly does exceed that of an ordinary Absolute God." Saturn steadied himself, his eyes growing sharp. "It seems I cannot treat you as a mere disturbance any longer. I shall have to put forth a measure of true effort against you."
"Realizing it only now? Too late!" Axis pressed his advantage relentlessly, his hands forming an empty grip. The Sword of the God of Destruction took shape once more, but this time the blade was wreathed in chaotic creative power, its might incomparable to before.
Chaos Final Destruction Slash!
Having ascended to Absolute God, Axis's Divine Cloth had also been upgraded, and the weapon in his hand had become even more terrifying.
As for the name of the technique, that had been thought up on the spot. As long as it sounded suitably impressive, anything would do.
A purple-black blade light tore through the cosmos as it swept forth. Wherever it passed, all things were unmade, laws were extinguished, and even the timeline itself was severed.
Subaru did not dare hesitate. He brought his hands together, and a great, ancient blade appeared in his grasp, a weapon that seemed forged from time itself. This was the weapon of the Transcendent God, the Eternal Dance.
At the same time, a suit of crimson armor manifested. This was the armor of the Transcendent God, or rather the armor of this avatar, Saturn. The crimson armor settled upon the Transcendent God's frame. To face Axis, even an avatar of the Transcendent God needed to fight in earnest.
Saturn swung the Eternal Dance, bringing it down upon Axis.
The blade light contained within it the birth and death of countless dimensions, forming a vast temporal vortex that sought to draw Axis's destructive blade light into an endless cycle of time and grind it into nothingness.
The two supreme forces collided once more.
A deafening roar shattered the air.
This explosion was far greater than the one before it. The entire Earth shook violently. A massive tear opened in the sky, revealing the cosmos of stars beyond.
In the very moment when the energies clashed at their fiercest and the light shone at its most blinding, Saori Kido, who had been observing silently from the sidelines, suddenly cried out toward Kouga as a flash of inspiration passed through her eyes:
"Now, Kouga! Unleash all of your Omega Power! For Saori, for this world!" To help the Transcendent God's avatar slay this invading deity was the best choice now.
At the same moment, the Athena beside Axis sent a private message through her Cosmos: "Axis, it's time to seize the Power to Slay Gods!"
Kouga, who had been suppressed by Grail all this while and had witnessed Saturn's descent with a heart in turmoil, heard Saori Athena's cry. Watching the world-shattering collision, his determination to protect Saori and his companions overwhelmed every other thought.
Anyone who dared threaten Lady Saori was his enemy.
"AAAAAH! Omega! Burn, my Cosmos!" Kouga unleashed a roar unlike any before. The dormant Omega Power within him ignited in a way it never had before. Crimson light surged up to the heavens, briefly even breaking through Grail's suppression.
This sudden burst of God-Slaying Power subtly disrupted Saturn's perfect command of his temporal authority.
Saturn's attack faltered, almost imperceptibly. For a being of Axis's caliber, even that minute hesitation was more than enough.
The exchange just now had appeared to be a deadlock, but in truth, Axis had been giving his all while Saturn had been merely testing the waters. If the Transcendent God's avatar had truly fought without restraint, the one to fall would surely have been Axis.
Even if it was only an avatar, the dignity of a Transcendent God could not be defied. Even Axis, the strongest Absolute God, could not challenge an avatar through power alone.
But after his contact with Chronos, Axis knew that one specific kind of force could help him overcome a Transcendent God.
Axis's combat instincts were razor-sharp, and he seized the fleeting opening at once.
His left hand maintained the Chaos Final Destruction Slash, holding back Saturn's Eternal Dance, while his right hand suddenly thrust outward, slicing through the chaotic torrents of energy to grasp directly at Kouga, who had unleashed the full light of Omega.
Before Kouga's astonished eyes, Axis's fist plunged through his chest. When dealing with underdog protagonists, you had to use a killing blow from the very first move.
You absolutely could not give them the chance to rise again and shout about burning their determination, because if you did, you would be the one cut down. That sort of thing did not play by any rules.
So Axis kept firmly in mind the wisdom passed down by every transmigrator before him: when fighting a Pegasus Saint, the first move had to be a killing strike.
"No! Kouga!" Seiya was stricken with horror and tried to intervene, but the absolute pressure of an Absolute God held him fast. He could not move at all.
Saori Kido struggled to raise the Staff of Nike, but it was useless. Who could have imagined that an Absolute God would resort to a sneak attack?
And the target of that sneak attack, no less, was an ordinary Saint.
Axis's palm seemed to shroud the entire world. The Omega light that Kouga had unleashed was forcibly compressed and seized within his grasp.
"Mazahs!" Axis spoke coldly. He tightened his grip, and the power of Mazahs activated.
A soft, terrible sound followed.
The crimson Omega light dimmed and died in an instant. Pegasus Kouga, the youth who had carried the God-Slaying Power of this world, shattered like fragile crystal in Axis's hand, dispersing into the air as the purest particles of energy.
Only a single thread of refined power remained, carrying within it a strange property uniquely effective against gods. Axis forcibly extracted and devoured it, making it part of his own strength.
"KOUGAAA!" Seiya, Souma, Yuna, and the others let out cries of heart-wrenching grief.
Axis paid them no mind. He absorbed that strand of God-Slaying Power into his own Absolute divinity. His aura rose once again. Though the quantity had not increased, the very nature of his power had taken on a new and chilling characteristic.
"Bastard!" The will of the Transcendent God's avatar Saturn finally erupted in genuine fury. To slay an important subject of observation right before his eyes, to steal a key power, was a naked act of provocation.
"Angry, are you? It isn't over yet!" Having absorbed the God-Slaying Power, Axis felt a wondrous transformation in his own strength. His destructive power against divine beings had grown by orders of magnitude.
He abandoned the contest of energies. His body vanished in an instant, and he appeared directly before Subaru in the next moment. The Absolute divinity infused with God-Slaying properties, the power of the God of Destruction, and the freshly seized Omega Power all converged within his fist.
"This punch is in thanks for the splendid gift you have brought me. End, Saturn! Your power, too, is mine now!"
"Transcendent God, God of Destruction Energy, God-Slaying Pulverizing Fist!"
Before the fist had even arrived, the ultimate annihilating intent it bore against gods had already begun to break apart Saturn's avatar body.
His pupils contracted violently. He frantically channeled his temporal power to retreat or defend, but the time around him had been crushed and frozen by Axis's absolute will.
"NOO!" Saturn cried out in disbelief.
Axis's fist slammed solidly into his chest, piercing through his breastplate in an instant. The Eternal Divine Robe of the Transcendent God meant nothing before Axis's power.
For this fist contained the energy of the God of Destruction, the God-Slaying Power, the catalyst of his Cosmos, and the divine might of the DC universe. It carried within it nearly every power Axis had accumulated from the moment of his rise to this very day.
A roar shook all of creation.
There was no explosion. There was only complete annihilation.
The body of Saturn's avatar Subaru, beginning from the point of impact, was erased as if rubbed away by a great eraser, swiftly turned to nothingness. The Eternal Dance in his hand crumbled and dispersed alongside him.
The avatar of a Transcendent God, slain instantly by Axis with a single punch through the absolute force of God-Slaying Power.
The vast temporal divinity, deprived of its vessel, began to leak outward. Saturn had never imagined that Axis would possess God-Slaying Power, much less wield a force so destructive that it could annihilate him in a single blow.
How could Axis let it slip away? Drawing in a deep breath, he activated the power of Mazahs once more.
"Mazahs!"
An enormous, formless vortex appeared, voraciously drawing the leaking temporal divinity into Axis's body. Though it was only the power of an avatar, its essence was extraordinary, and Axis's understanding of the laws of time was elevated to unprecedented heights in an instant.
Seizing the power of a Transcendent God made Axis stronger still.
It had all happened so quickly. From Axis's descent, to the eruption of battle, to Kouga's death, to the instant slaughter of Saturn's avatar and the devouring of his power, mere breaths had passed.
The battlefield fell into deathly silence.
Everyone was stunned by the overwhelming clash of supreme deities. And yet, at the very moment Axis was absorbing the power of Saturn's avatar, something unexpected occurred.
"Now! Time Steal! Hand over your power to me!"
Chronos, who had been hidden in the shadows under the Emperor's watch, took advantage of the brief moment when Axis was absorbing power and his guard had relaxed slightly. He suddenly unleashed the ability he had been preparing in secret all this time.
He did not strike at Axis. Instead, he transformed into a formless current of time and surged toward Pallas, who stood dazed at the center of the battlefield. With the death of Saturn's avatar, she had lost control of herself.
He sought to seize Pallas's body, or perhaps the residual connection to Saturn that might linger within her, and use it as a new vessel.
He knew he was no match for Axis, so he had changed targets. The newly resurrected goddess had been brought back by the power of a Transcendent God, and traces of that power still lingered within her.
"I've been guarding against you all along, Chronos!" The Emperor, who had been standing motionless in the void as if a mere observer, suddenly opened his eyes wide.
His Cosmos, blazing like a golden sun, sacred and brilliant, erupted forth in an instant. It became a vast and magnificent psychic matrix composed of countless golden geometric runes, instantly enveloping Chronos's temporal current.
Axis had asked him to do nothing else but watch this Chronos, and naturally the Emperor would not disappoint him.
The Emperor's power was filled with order, sanctity, reason, and absolute hope for humanity's future. It was the perfect counter to Chronos's chaotic temporal current.
"What? You actually..." Chronos's soul was forcibly shaken loose from the temporal current. He let out a roar of shock and rage. He had never imagined that the Emperor's power would so thoroughly counter his own, much less that the Emperor had been preparing against him with full strength all along.
"Your time ends here. You have outlived your usefulness." Axis's icy voice rang out. He had finished absorbing Saturn's power, and his gaze locked onto Chronos, now bound by the Emperor.
"No! Axis! My ally! Hear me out! We can rule time together. We can..." Chronos pleaded in terror.
But Axis had no patience for his prattling. For one who plotted betrayal at every moment, only complete obliteration would suffice.
His Absolute divinity, infused with God-Slaying Power, pointed across the void. Chronos's soul, along with the time around him, was utterly erased, vanished without a trace. The God of Time had fallen.
Axis slowly descended from the air. His gaze swept across the devastated battlefield, across the terrified Saints and Steel Saints, across his subordinates kneeling in awe.
Saturn's avatar destroyed, Chronos slain, the God-Slaying Power obtained. The matter was finished.
"Grail, Ultraman, Thanatos, Hypnos, gather the army." Axis gave the order calmly.
"Yes, Lord Axis! Your Majesty!" The four answered respectfully.
It was time to leave swiftly, lest Saturn's true body arrive. He had pulled off something tremendous this time, and once he had fully digested all this power, Axis would step into the level of the Multiverse.
Axis cast one final glance at Saori Kido, Seiya, and the others. He had decided not to seize the remaining portion of God-Slaying Power.
After all, the one he had killed was a main protagonist in his eyes, and one Kouga had been enough. The God-Slaying Power was already his. The other was no longer worth killing.
Axis lingered no longer. With the workings of a power that surpassed even the Absolute God, an enormous corridor leading to other universes was forcibly opened. From the other side of the corridor came the faint, familiar aura of the Warhammer universe.
Axis took Athena and led his subordinates as they stepped into the corridor.
Behind them, the survivors of this world were left to face a ruined landscape and a world that had lost its God-Slaying Power, where even the avatar of the Transcendent God had fallen silent for the time being. What path their future would take was a story for another time.
Axis returned, bearing the immense power he had devoured: that of an Absolute God, an avatar of a Transcendent God, and a God of Time. His strength had been elevated to an unimaginable plane.
His divine body could no longer be measured by simple ranks. With the devouring nature of Mazahs and the cosmos-creating authority of an Absolute God, he set out upon a grand undertaking.
With his supreme divine power, Axis drew matter and energy from the Warhammer universe, but went far beyond it, opening up brand new universes with their own complete laws within the void beyond the Warp itself.
Each universe shimmered like a star within the void, independent of one another yet interconnected, together forming a vast and incomparable multiverse.
The throne of Axis sat at the very center of this newborn multiverse. His will was the supreme law of this multiverse.
The Emperor, Athena, Kasha, Kratos, his father-in-law, his wifes, his son.
Ultraman, Grail, and every powerful being who followed him received their corresponding divine seats and territories within this new multiverse, becoming gods who ruled their own domains.
Axis became the God of Multiverse Creation, presiding over all things.
And the humans of the main Warhammer universe, under the secret protection of the Emperor and Axis, continued their long campaign. Only this time, standing behind them was a true Creator God who held dominion over the multiverse.
…
The end.

A/n: This book is finally complete. One reader was actually right when they said it should have ended when the Emperor became a Grand Supreme Kai. I just wanted to try a bit more, to see whether I could turn it into an Omniverse-style story and keep going. As it turned out, that was wishful thinking on my part.
Tl/n: And I absolutely agree with that commentator. And thus, this fanfiction is complete! I don't really know what to feel to be honest. A lot of shit happened in my life in the span of this fanfiction, and less than half of it were pleasant.
As you may already know, I have already picked up another book, and that might very well be the last book I'll attempt to translate.
Welp, see ya'll tomorrow!
