Chapter 202. Erasing Death
Since being eternally sealed away, Death has lived for countless years. During this time, Thanos has reaped endless lives for her, elevating the power of Death to an unbelievable level.
Everything they did was for the sake of escaping this cage one day. Unfortunately, over countless years, this cage remained incredibly sturdy. No matter how powerful the power of death was, it could not do anything to the cage. The eternal cage was the most solid barrier in the world, preventing not only death from escaping but also preventing outside life from entering.
Now, death has lost its divine nobility, replaced by deep doubt and questioning of the rules of the universe.
Ultraman brazenly entered the sealed land, and the eternal cage had no effect for the first time, as if it were the natural order, the natural order, and the universe's rules were changing in accordance with the will.
"You—why? Why—why can you alter the rules of the universe? I am clearly the foundation of the universe!"
The Goddess of Death felt no joy at the possibility of escaping her cage, but rather a deep fear. If she could change the rules of eternity, she could also change the rules of death. Ultraman had said he would kill her.
"Why?" Noah of the Universe gripped the head of the Goddess of Death, the surging power rendering her immobile. "Because the universe chose me. The universe needs hope, the universe needs life force, and you, the foundation of the universe, are leading the universe toward its own demise!"
The moment Noah uttered those words, the Goddess of Death clearly sensed a weakening of her own power—a feeling she had never experienced before, a feeling of utter suffocation.
Since the first life ended, her power has never weakened. The death of each life strengthens her power. The Goddess of Death has witnessed the passing of countless lives and has ended countless lives. She is the embodiment of the end of life in the universe.
But at this moment, the emotion called death enveloped the goddess of death's heart.
Yes, it was a concrete manifestation of death; I clearly perceived that I would die, that I could actually die.
Absurd yet real.
Perhaps this cannot be called death, but rather the dissipation of consciousness, which completely transforms the embodiment of death into cold rules, becoming the most solid foundation of the universe.
At that moment, the Goddess of Death suddenly understood something, and understood why, after being eternally sealed, her consciousness dissipated and merged into the infinite multiverse. Perhaps, this was the answer.
But she didn't want to die!
As the Goddess of Death frantically mobilized her power, the entire cage world wailed, as if it were about to collapse.
Of course, this is just an illusion; how could an eternal cage be easily breached by prisoners?
The Goddess of Death vanished from the hands of Noah of the Universe, and the entire Cage World was filled with despair—the Goddess of Death's final counterattack.
A scene appeared before Noah of the Universe.
That was the child's dying plea.
That was the husband's desperate prayer as he watched his wife fall into a pool of blood.
That was the bewilderment of a husband who was helpless as his wife lost her life in the delivery room.
That's the helplessness of an elderly person burying their child.
That was a pistol that suddenly jammed while apprehending a criminal.
Those were lives that should not have been lost, but their fates were tugged at.
Life becomes the kindling that ignites others.
Is this the last memory of every departed life? Is it the cruel joke of the goddess of death? Or is it a deliberate fabrication, a power to corrupt the soul? Noah of the universe cannot know, nor does He want to know.
He only knew that someone had to pay the price. When the power of death is subjectively controlled by others, what chance does the universe have, and what change can occur between all things?
The Goddess of Death's all-out attack landed on Noah's body, but it was like a gentle breeze, leaving no ripple.
Beings like the Five Great Gods have long since transcended the limitations of physics in their attack methods, employing the rules of cosmic judgment and mobilizing the power of concepts.
The Goddess of Death had just attempted to sever the concept of Noah's existence in the universe through death, plunging Him into annihilation.
This is of course useless.
What is the Noah of the Universe?
This is the combined form of the Great Universe Will, Swallow, and Noah. In other words, it is the combined form of Ultraman Legend and Noah.
One is the manifestation of universal truth, and the other is the undying light of hope. This is a combination of matter and mind, and even the goddess of death cannot shake such a cosmic Noah.
"You can't kill me."
The vanished goddess of death reappeared, this time with only a strange expression on her face, much like the child's dying plea in the picture.
"You cannot kill me. Without me, the universe will descend into chaos. Believe me, the existence of the five cosmic entities with their own consciousness is for the best for the universe."
"You have no self-awareness whatsoever."
Noah's voice was ethereal yet carried a hint of coldness.
"If you had just been a bystander, I wouldn't have done anything to you. But you insist on controlling other people's destinies and making life your nourishment. Tell me, what use are you? You're nothing but a parasite."
"Death is the end, and everything will come to you. Why do you rush this process? Imprisoning you forever is a wise move."
The voice of Noah of the Universe gradually lost its emotion, becoming only as ruthless as the rules of the universe.
"You—" The Goddess of Death was speechless. Unspeakable fear gripped her consciousness. She could feel her consciousness dissipating, the entire universe receding into the distance, rejecting this tangible deity whose life had ended.
"I—I'll tell you—I'll tell you—the secret—the secret is—what it is."
The goddess of death reached out, trying to touch the luminous giant.
Noah of the Universe took a step back indifferently, his self-illumination shining like a torch: "I no longer need those so-called secrets. I just need to do what I should do. I believe that as long as hope remains, no matter who the opponent is, the brilliance of life will never fade away."
"You—you will—you will definitely regret this!"
The Goddess of Death glared resentfully at Noah of the Universe before her body vanished like smoke.
For deities like Death, their existence is an abstract concept, and physical attacks are of little use.
Therefore, Noah of the Universe uses a different ability, and this ability is not solely his achievement.
After absorbing the Infinity Stones, which represent the source of infinity, Little Swallow gained considerable authority in the multiverse, representing the will of the universe.
Besides Noah and Little Swallow, there is actually another person who can easily resolve death and truly exert their power.
That is Eternity, one of the five great gods.
Although He has lost consciousness and merged into the multiverse, He still left a backup plan.
This is the cage that can hold death captive.
Noah borrowed the power of the cage.
In fact, even if the Goddess of Death breaks free from her cage, her consciousness will be erased the moment she breaks free; this is a contingency plan left by Eternity.
