Chapter 686 Summary of Book 9 As of Now

[[Note: You can read this to recall stuff without re-reading all the chapters...]]
The volume started by showing two characters who were both travelling through space.
These characters are Wisteria and Astria, both who came from the Four Moons World.(Note: At the end of Volume 7, it was shown that Wisteria was recruited by the Cosmic Guards. As for Astria, she stayed inside Wisteria's soul at that time.)
Judging by the conversation between Astria and Wisteria, the latter seemed to be officially recruited by the Cosmic Guards already, and she's about to do a mission regarding a new planet.
Astria on the other hand was still stuck inside Wisteria, although the former seemed to be just fine with it.
The two women did not exactly say what Wisteria's mission is about, as they did not leak any details while talking.(They must not have leaked any info since they are afraid of someone spying on them.
*********
The scene then shifted, this time showing the arrival of Alex and his companions in their new world.
These 4 did not seem happy with their arrival, and they were instead confused with what happened.
Upon their arrival, Alex suddenly found himself in the midst of receiving a sudden worship from a group of weird-looking people.
This sudden worship quickly made Alex and his allies wary of this new world, as they did not expect to see Alex being worshipped this way.
What made this worship worse was the fact that these weird people were not just worshipping Alex.
Their actions and aura indicated that they were worshipping the Abyss too, and they seem to have no qualms on hiding it.
They were all proud on worshipping the Abyss, and they appear to be interested on sacrificing even their life just for the Abyss.
This revelation immediately unsettled Alina, as she was already extremely wary about the Abyss, especially after their adventure in the Traveler's World.
Alina already had the suspicion that Alex and the Abyss made a secret agreement without her knowledge, and it was this 'secret agreemen' that helped Alex recover from his coma.
Even if Alina had no evidence regarding this 'secret agreement', Alex's actions after he woke up from his coma was enough to make Alina suspicious of him and the Abyss.
************
Because of this weird worshipping people and the denying attitude from Alex, Alina has decided to question Alex right now about his coma and his recovery.
But before she could question him, a sudden attack from an unknown group of enemies rained down on them.
Bombs that have the power to hurt Sixth Stage Beings impacted against them, forcing Alina and the others to take shelter against the attack.
Fortunately for these 4, they survived the attack.
As for their enemies who just attacked, they appeared to be sure that Alex and the others were already dead. So instead of unleashing more attacks on the area, these enemies returned to their base, leaving Alex and his allies recuperating from the attack.
Once the last of these attackers left, Alex used his power to attach a Leech King on the last departing attacker. Once attached, this Leech King began to gather info about this new world.
Alex and his allies had to wait for 30 minutes before they receive the info gathered by the Leech King, which they fortunately received without any delays.
**************
The info gathered by the Leech King did not exactly give the name of this world, but it made Alex and his allies realize what this world could be.
From the looks of it, this world was heavily centered around religions and worship. Many churches and cults exist in this world, and they were all geared on gathering as many worshippers as possible.
This info quickly made Alex and his allies uneasy, as the existence of these religions pointed out to the possibility of the True Gods surviving in this Era
(Extra Note: The True Gods are the first powered beings in the Multiverse, and they existed from the start of the Primordial Era. They became worshipped by all sentient beings, with their power making them the most dominant beings in the Multiverse. It was only when the Power Systems began to show up that the True Gods began to decline, and by the end of the Upheaval Era, all the True Gods are said to have been killed already.)
**************
The dumb fairy Asteria chose this time to inform Alex and the others about their Main Mission.
Their Main Mission is to help a religion become the dominant religion in this world. It doesn't matter how they do it, as long as in the end, their chosen religion becomes the dominant one.
Upon hearing this Main Mission, Alex quickly proposed that they support that Abyss Temple as their religion. Alex explained that with his status as the Abyss Envoy, making the Abyss Temple the dominant religion will be easy.
Alina, Queen Mother, and Professor Frances however did not agree, and they all harbor suspicion about Alex's offer to ally with the Abyss.
These three knew that something is wrong with the Abyss right now, and given Alex's current condition, maybe distancing themselves away from the Abyss will be the better choice.
This refusal to ally with the Abyss enraged Alex, and he seemed to be extremely pissed with the choice of his companions.
In fact, Alex became so pissed that he began attacking the trio, with his words and actions suddenly becoming slurry and disordered.
Alex then displayed a malicious behavior that he did not have before, with his aura suddenly becoming corrupted and full of evil thoughts.
Once Alex displayed this new side of his, Alina and the others quickly realized what had happened to Alex.
Alex seems to be partially-corrupted by the Abyss, with most of his rationality taken over by the Abyss' corruption!
The former snarky Alex was now gone, and what only remained was a man whose morals and thoughts were partially twisted by the Abyss already.(Note: Alex is not yet fully corrupted by the Abyss, so he is still somewhat human. But if the corruption of his mind continues, he is bound to become a full-fledged Abyss Monster in the few weeks.)
Upon revealing his partially-corrupted stated, Alex used his power to keep Alina, Queen mother, and Professor Frances under his control. He then threatened to enslave them and use them as his 'toys'.
Fortunately for Alina and the other two, they were able to use their powers to escape from Alex.
***************
This escape brought Alina, Professor Frances, and Queen Mother inside the territory of the Church of Wisdom. Here, they met an Elder Priest who began treating Alina as the Church of Wisdom's new Divine Maiden.
This sudden gracious treatment caught Alina off-guard, but she did not reject it. Instead, she became excited upon being treated this way.
After all, Alina realized that if she became the Church of Wisdom's Divine Maiden, she can use her status to make this religion her ally, which will be helpful to her Main Mission.
Aside from this, her alliance with the Church of Wisdom can help Alina find a way to treat Alex and possibly free him from his partial corruption.
With these thoughts in mind, Alina quickly accepted the role of becoming the Church of Wisdom's new Divine Maiden.
**********
After Alina made her escape, Alex did not chase after her.
Instead, he just let them be, while he brought himself towards the headquarters of the Abyss Temple.
Here, Alex tried to formulate his own plans on making the Abyss Temple this world's dominant religion.
***************
Once Alina accepted her status as the new Divine Maiden, the whole Church of Wisdom then announced this to the whole world.
This Church then said that they will be holding a Welcoming Ceremony for Alina 3 days from now, which will show the ceremonial inauguration of Alina into the new Divine Maiden.
For this big event, the Church of Wisdom invited almost all of the religions in the world for this event.
The Church of Wisdom also invited the other Travelers along with their allied religions, something that Alina instructed to them.
*************
3 DAYS LATER, and the Welcoming Ceremony for Alina was about to start.
All the invited Travelers seemed to have arrived to the venue of the Welcoming Ceremony, and they all looked prepared for a battle.
Alex was also prepared for battle, even if he is not at the venue itself. He was still at the headquarters in the Abyss Temple, busy on making plans along with his semi-corrupted Abyss Sprites.
************
Because of the tension in the venue for the ceremony, it is hard to know who will make the first move, as everyone seemed to be wary of each other.
It was only when Alina showed herself for the ceremony that one of her enemies began making a move.
The Traveler who was allied with the Goetic Palace was the first one to make his move, and he did it at the moment that Alina appeared on the stage.
The ability that this Traveler used was a time loop that trapped everyone, including Alina inside its mysterious effects.
Alina used her time abilities to break through this time loop, and once she was free, she prepared herself to fight against this Traveler's Companions.
But before she could fight, Alina realized that she's not the only one who can break out of the time loop. Someone behind her showed the capability to break out of the time loop, a fact that made Alina feel both worried and excited.
