All of this was projected onto him by Baili using his abilities—
Asuna Yuuki saw the surface of the planet where the aliens had arrived begin to distort, as if it were being kneaded into a bizarre shape by an invisible hand.
The planet's atmosphere expands outward, like a blooming black rose, with imaginary energy flowing from its destiny on its petals!
"Mr. Baili, that... is also the power of chaos?"
she murmured.
Baili stood beside her, his gaze indifferent, and replied in a flat tone.
"It's just a small projection."
Before Baili finished speaking—
An unprecedented shock erupted during the week in which the Abyss dwellers were located!
It wasn't the incandescence of a star exploding, but pure darkness—a darkness that devoured all light, mass, and information.
The entire planet seemed to be crushed by an invisible giant hand; its core collapsed, its gravity became disordered, and its spatial structure began to disintegrate.
Before the Abyss dwellers living on the planet could even comprehend what was happening, they were plunged into an inescapable catastrophe.
Their screams echoed silently in the vacuum, their bodies were stretched into thin threads, their consciousness was torn to pieces, their souls were devoured by the power of chaos, and even their very existence was erased!
Asuna Yuuki's heart pounded violently; she felt an indescribable sense of oppression—
That was not just a suppression of power, but a subversion of the laws of reality.
"The entire planet..."
Her worldview was once again shaken.
Baili slowly raised his hands.
"These guys don't seem to have just one planetary base."
With the complete destruction of the Abyss Planet, Baili's control of the chaotic power did not stop there.
It spread along its interstellar orbit around the planet, through nebulae, past stars, devouring the Planet 5.0 belt, and eventually extending throughout the entire galaxy!
However, none of this was projected.
For Asuna, she only saw a part of the planet being destroyed.
But she didn't think that Baili's abilities were limited to that.
That power was beyond Asuna's imagination.
at the same time--
Released over a hundred miles, the chaos that roamed the universe still spread out like a spider web.
The planets conquered by the Abyss began to fall into cycles of chaotic collapse, eventually being completely devoured by imaginary energy.
The reason why Bai Li didn't let Asuna deal with the last Abyss Being was this...
Waiting for the other side to bring Chaos into the base.
Then catch them all in one go.
As Baili gradually withdrew the power that had been carried away by the warp-inducing spaceship, letting it return to chaos, he stretched.
He then looked at the girl beside him.
"Make a call to the police and get others to handle the unconscious tourists and staff."
"Ok."
Asuna immediately agreed and took out her phone.
As for the follow-up arrangements...
"After that, come and sit at my apartment for a while."
Bai Li intends to delve deeper into Asuna's potential.
Chapter 157 Asuna x Hyakusato Linkstart (link)! But it's not SAO.
On the way to Baili Apartment—
Asuna Yuuki recalled everything that had just happened.
Go to the planetarium to test your inspiration;
They were attacked by an enemy from outer space.
He gained power from Baili to defeat his opponent;
last of the last……
Yuuki Asuna saw that Hyakusato had deliberately let the tiger return to the mountain, and through the other party's actions, she determined the alien's base camp.
Then came the impact of the chaotic tide and the spread of destructive power.
Faced with the power unleashed by Baili, no enemy resistance was observed in the projected images.
The aliens' dwelling place was instantly destroyed, and everything was submerged in the chaotic waves.
Eventually, everything returned to calm.
The power of a hundred miles—
It's not destruction, it's erasure.
The planet where the aliens lived was completely swallowed up by the chaotic power released by Baili, as if it had never existed.
That area is probably just a void left...
Yuuki Asuna, who witnessed all of this, was greatly shocked.
Especially when I saw the aliens completely wiped out, my heart almost stopped.
It wasn't fear, it was shock.
Because Asuna learned of Hyakusato's identity—a god.
He is a god.
So……
What is God?
The girl's thoughts began to churn as she walked along a certain path.
She once thought that gods were supreme beings, without desires, omnipotent, and untouched by worldly emotions, like the Heavenly Emperor in Eastern legends or God in Western religions, residing in the heavens and looking down upon all living beings.
But now, the Baili she sees is not like that at all.
He has purpose, will, and emotions.
He personally released the Abyss Beings, solely to use the power of chaos to completely annihilate their home planet.
He was not a cold-blooded judge, but a person who actively chose destruction.
This unusual situation reminded Asuna of the gods in Greek mythology.
Zeus would succumb to desire and unite with mortal women;
Hera would punish her rivals out of jealousy;
Poseidon will unleash a tsunami in his anger;
Athena will also fight for justice.
Those gods are not perfect; they have their own preferences, prejudices, ambitions, and even selfishness.
They are not unattainable absolute beings, but rather superiors who possess emotions and desires, joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
That's what makes them more authentic and more awe-inspiring.
"Perhaps... true gods are not without desires."
Asuna murmured softly...
Upon hearing the girl's words, Baili responded.
"Among the gods I know, there are indeed such beings."
Nanuk, the God of Destruction – As the embodiment of destruction, Nanuk is passionate about destruction and annihilation.
Aha, the god of joy—Aha represents joy and enjoys creating all sorts of crises and fun. It is his existence that makes the universe more unpredictable and full of surprises.
The destinies followed by the other star gods were not those of supreme perfection and detachment from desires.
When Asuna heard Hyakuri speak to her, she couldn't help but stare at him with curious eyes.
Is there something on my face?
"No, no..."
Asuna shook her head, not avoiding Hyakusato's gaze, and said in an uncertain tone...
"I'm thinking... how should I face Mr. Baili?"
"I don't have any special requirements. On the contrary, I'm looking forward to your future performance. Unlike others, you have a more outstanding talent in using destiny to fight."
Baili is certain of this.
Unlike Ais, who had honed her skills in the dungeon for many years;
She is different from Rias, who is a high-ranking demon.
After all, talent doesn't depend on background, but on subsequent growth.
To put it bluntly, even if Baili made the two sisters, Serafru and Sona, who had previously been pestering him, his path-walkers, their growth rate might not be as fast as Ais's.
In this respect, Asuna is better.
Hearing the praise, Asuna's expression relaxed a little, and she asked seriously.
"Who were the other people Mr. Baili mentioned earlier...?"
"You're not the only one who's embarked on this path of destiny."
Were there many people before me?
"of course."
