Odyssey of the Blind God Chapter 228 Ordering A God Around

Chapter 228 Ordering A God Around

Nial knew that it would be impossible for him to trick Silvian forever.
Simultaneously, he could tell that it was useless to force himself to separate his own memories from Damian's.
It was possible to do so, but Nial could tell that he could learn a lot from accepting Damian's memories as his own. Not only would it allow him to imprint everything important deeply into his mind, but the mistakes Damian made in his life would always remind him of what he should never do wrong!
'Now I get what the God of Darkness meant when he spoke about the Odyssey seed taking over my mind, and that my willpower would be a deciding factor in knowing whether Damian will reincarnate, or if he will find his eternal peace.' Nial thought, understanding that the memories he had just seen were bound to change his behavior.
Even if he knew that it was not his life, the memories of the God of Darkness felt like Nial had lived through them all.
It was a weird feeling but it was something worth experiencing. After all, he had learned a lot, whether it was knowledge about Gods, beasts, dungeons, runic armaments, veils, other dimensional rifts, or the vast universe.
Nial was still far from satisfied with the knowledge he had gained, but he could also tell that he had to learn a few things by himself. At the same time, it was only a matter of time before the Odyssey seed would share more experiences and memories with him.
But there was one thing that bothered him extremely; the Ankh!
'So this thing is the 'blessing' or whatever from a Divine Existence. These Symbols are supposed to be empowered with the Divine power of the Divine existence they originate from… Considering that it is the Symbol of Life, my mana core should have gained life as well.'
Nial had gained some understanding of how Divine existences shared their divine power with their subordinates. A tiny fragment of their Divinity would be separated from their body and implanted in the host of their choice.
After understanding this, Nial got to know that the Mutant Minotaur was one of such existences. The Minotaur had been strengthened several times, and it had gained powers that were unattainable for beasts at the Lowest grade of the Prometheus rank.
On the other hand, the Ankh was something Nial had yet to gain a better understanding of. Earlier it hadn't done anything as it had been engraved on the Odyssey seed. However, now that it influenced the Odyssey seed, and was trying to change it so as to gain life, everything was changing.
The vigor of the Ankh was quite useful for various reasons, including the fact that it increased his body's acceptance of mana.
For now, Nial couldn't name a single disadvantage of the Ankh. That was why he averted his attention once again.
He looked back to Silvian, who was still pondering about how to properly answer Nial's question about what he wanted to achieve by incarnating on Jundra.
'Damian has yet to regain all of his memories. So I guess he doesn't know much about Jundra's value? Should I tell him everything, or will his life as a human on Jundra affect his rational decisions?' Silvian could tell that Nial was a lot like the Damian he knew.
However, it was also quite obvious that Nial was a bit different from the Damina he knew as well. There were quite a few differences in Nial's behavior, his abilities, and more.
"Should I ask you a third time, or will you answer me now?" Nial asked, his lifeless eyes staring in an unfocused way at Silvian.
'Maybe he didn't change as much as I thought. He is still rude and impatient.' Silvian thought, pursing his lips in enjoyment.
"You still know how to annoy me…" Silvian just mumbled before he began to smirk as he got an idea. "But pay attention to how you behave here, I'm finally stronger than you, you little Jerk!"
After Silvian said this, he ruffled Nial's hair until it was completely disheveled. In the past, Silvian would have never dared to do that. He knew that he would be beaten to a pulp if he would even reach for his friend's head.
However, now that he was stronger than his old friend, it was finally time to repay the favor.
'Muhaha, It looks like I have to thank all these old bastards for forcing me to incarnate. Looks like it will be much funnier than expected!'
Nial's mixture of dark energy and vigor reached out for Silvian's arm the moment he touched it.
It tried to affect the Sacred Knights leader but it was entirely useless. Silvian released his holy aura for a fraction of a second, dispelling Nial's dark energy before he moved his hand back.
"I guess that was enough fun for now. The puny humans are already looking at me weirdly. For now, I should maintain the image of being one of the strongest humans in the Stinon alliance."
While Silvian spoke, Nial got to know quite a few new pieces of information as well. His words 'One of the strongest' instead of 'the strongest' were quite interesting to know, and 'in the Stinon alliance' instead of 'on Jundra' also made him feel curious.
Silvian was known for being arrogant and self-confident, so he wouldn't speak mindlessly.
However, Nial didn't ask the Sacred Knights leader to explain his choice of words. He felt as if he was demanding too much from Silvian by ordering him around, to begin with.
'I shouldn't overdo it. I am not Damian, and neither am I stronger than Silvian as the God of Darkness had been before.' Nial told himself over and over again.
But despite that, Damian's memories continued to influence him. They affected him in a way that Nial became more arrogant and self-conscious about the power he was bound to hold over mankind.
He could be said to have been chosen as the Legacy Holder of the God of Darkness' legacy. Nial was bound to become stronger than anyone which was why he had the right to be arrogant!
That was, at least, the thought that the memories of the late God of Darkness tried to implant in his mind.
"Either way, let's go to my tent. I don't mind speaking here, but I don't want others to continue eavesdropping." Silvian suddenly remarked before waving his hand in a manner that indicated to Nial to follow Silvian.
The Sacred Knights leader momentarily forgot about Nial's blindness as he acted as usual, and used his hands to motion to others what to do.
But it was not necessary for anyone to be considerate toward him, either way. He could easily perceive what others wanted from him by visualizing them and their actions.
Thus, he followed Silvian without another word.
Mathias was still outside, and it was not as if Nial had something to do right now, either way.
However, just when he followed Silvian to his large tent which was larger than some flats in Liondra, Nial perceived both Kirlia and the veiled woman's presence.
Nial wanted to change his path instinctively. He wanted to approach the veiled woman and ask her if he could 'see' her face.
He desperately needed to know whether the veiled woman was his sister or not, otherwise, he would never be able to calm down.
But even if the veiled woman was actually his sister and his gut feeling had been correct, there was still one big problem.
'If she is really Sabrina, how the hell is she not able to remember me? It makes no sense.'
The fact that the veiled woman didn't know him was the biggest reason for Nial to believe that she might not actually be his sister but that her body frame was just similar to hers.
Comparing the body of two women felt weird to Nial but it was actually the only way for him to find his sister. After all, she had no mana fluctuations when they had separated. She had not awakened her Origin at that time.
Shaking his head, Nial turned his focus back to Silvian, who had already entered his tent.
'A short glance at her would be enough to calm my mind, and I would be able to change my approach on how to find my sister and parents… So annoying.'
It was currently more important to figure out what Silvian was doing on Jundra, whether he was planning to initiate another attack using the Dryx, and if there were other Incarnations of Gods roaming through the rows of the human race.
However, personally, it was certainly the most important for Nial to reunite with his family. Even the influence of the God of Darkness' memories were not strong enough for him to lose interest in the only goal he had in mind- to find his family.
'I should have a picture of my family somewhere. Even if the veiled woman is not my sister, I can still ask her if she knows someone who looks like Sabrina!' The sudden idea that flashed into his mind allowed Nial to feel much calmer.
He took a few deep breaths, entered Silvian's tent, and sat down on the couch the moment he found it.
Nial's mood had considerably improved the moment he figured that the veiled woman was useful to him, one way or another.
'I will find my family soon!!'
Silvian sat down on the couch as well. He looked quite relaxed and at ease as he took something to drink out of his spatial ring.
It was a nutrient-rich solution that was overflowing with compressed mana. Nial instinctively turned his head when he smelled and perceived the solution in Silvian's hand.
"Do you want some? I concocted it. After consuming this solution, your mana will replenish instantaneously, and your mana veins will get stimulated.
Training your mana core will be much easier, let alone annexing mana." Silvian said while handing over another vial which he took out from his spatial ring.
Nial accepted it and was about to drink it before Silvian added, smiling schemingly,
"Though I must tell you that you need to be a good drinker. If you are not good with alcohol, you might get tipsy…quite a bit at that."
The moment Silvian finished his words, Nial halted in his tracks, and the vial disappeared in his spatial ring before he cleared his throat.
"I guess, I will drink it later then. I shouldn't get tipsy now." Nial merely said, before noticing that Silvian was smiling.
'Just like Damian.'
"Do whatever you want with the potion, I don't really care. But let's speak a little bit about a more serious topic.
Outside the tent, I couldn't actually say whatever I wanted to because others were listening. The sound-isolation runes on my clothes are not perfect so the other 'true powerhouses' should have heard a little bit of what we were talking about.
But it's not like they will think that we were sober when they eavesdropped on us. Either way, you're interested in why I came to Jundra, and chose this planet to incarnate, right?" Silvian asked while taking a sip from the solution.
Nial just nodded his head, not saying anything in particular. He just wanted to hear what Silvian had to say.
"Do you still remember the Heaven's Palace Alliance and the Garden of the Five Elements?"
