"Calm down." The Entity of Balance spoke up, its voice breaking the tension forming between the two entities. "Let us continue the discussion. Eternity, do you know anything about the Seer’s whereabouts?" It questioned, but once again, Eternity’s answer remained the same. "I do not. She is purposefully hiding her tracks." "Why would she do that? She is trying to hide something." The Entity of Balance couldn’t understand. "Who knows? We all knew she was never on our side to begin with. We never managed to truly figure her out." Eternity answered, its voice calm as usual. "But she has never done something like this before." Balance spoke in a heavy tone. "…" Eternity remained silent. It had no answer to this. It did, however, have one possible theory. "Is it possible that… she found the Anomaly?" Suddenly, the Entity of Light questioned, and in an instant, everyone else turned towards it. What it said wasn’t wrong. Actually, that was the theory the Entity of Eternity had in its mind, but the reason it didn’t say it out loud was because it knew what effect it would have. "You have been oddly silent today." The Entity of Malice spoke up, its tone full of suspicion. "What do you mean?" The Entity of Light’s tone became heavier; it seemed to have realized its mistake. "I simply stated that there are chances that the Seer found the Anomaly and sided with it. It is also highly likely that the Anomaly was her goal all along and she had been waiting for it all this while. If we can figure out the relationship between the two of them, then it is possible to understand more about the situation." It quickly explained its thought process. The Entity of Malice, however, didn’t sound convinced. "Or… You felt that you had been silent for too long, and not wanting to be found out, you decided to add something to the conversation—something that would bring the discussion back to the Anomaly, a being that doesn’t even matter anymore." "What are you—" Before the Entity of Light could say anything to clarify, the Entity of Malice flickered, then, "It is you, isn’t it?" "Huh…?" The Entity of Light flickered as well, but Malice didn’t stop. "It would make sense, after all. You would not want any unnecessary destruction. You are currently weak because of the War, so you wouldn’t instantly come to power either. You are indeed the safest choice." "Trust me, if it were me, I would have ended your existence already." "How bloodthirsty." Malice’s voice sounded like it was grinning. "So it made you that strong, huh? What restrictions did it impose on you? What did it tell you to do? Find the Anomaly? Is that why you wanted to find it? How strong have you gotten? Are you strong enough to take all of us on your own? No, that shouldn’t be the case. Two of us at the same time? That might be possible. Or considering how passive you have been, maybe you are only strong enough to take on one of us? Heh, this sure has become interesting, hasn’t it, Universe’s Chosen?" Malice spoke, its voice sounding like it was grinning ear to ear. However, everyone knew it wasn’t the least bit amused. The rage and malice in its voice were apparent. And just like it, the other three Entities, including the Entity of Light it was blaming, seemed tense as well. And how could they not? After all, the Universe had chosen its Child. Yes, a Universe’s Child was born—a child with endless potential, a child that had power that no being in the entire Universe should possess. Usually, the Universe would never create such a being, but because of the Anomaly’s actions and its inability to stop it, the Universe had no choice but to choose a living entity as its protector. And of course, the Four Entities knew that as the strongest beings in the entire Universe, or in other words, beings closest to the Universe, the said Child was… One of them. Yes, one of them had received almost endless potential—the potential to surpass them all and become strong enough to get rid of them alone. It was a crisis. After all, while it may seem like it, the Four Supreme Worlds have never been allies. On the contrary, they have always been at each other’s throats, waiting for one to show even a moment of weakness and using that chance to get rid of them. The same happened with the Supreme World of Chaos, and the same would happen with any of them who became too weak or… too strong. The Universe choosing a Hero to get rid of the Anomaly may be good for it, but for the Supreme Worlds, it was the worst possible news. After all, whoever the Universe’s Chosen was, it would come for the other three the moment it was strong enough to get rid of them. This was also the reason the Supreme Worlds wanted to find the Anomaly so desperately, even though it wasn’t exactly targeting them. No, they weren’t scared of the Anomaly. They were scared of… each other. And now, what they were scared of… had happened. Yes, it happened much quicker than they were expecting. It was also something worth investigating, but for now, what mattered the most was that the Universal Political Dynamics had changed. The Supreme Worlds were no longer allies, even for the sake of appearances. There was a Universe’s Chosen amongst them, and they needed to find out who it was before it got too strong for them. As for the Anomaly they all were so desperately after… 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞 It was no longer important. It was the Universe’s Chosen’s problem now. Or maybe… It was now bait they could use to find the Universe’s Chosen. But for now… What the Four Supreme Worlds had to worry about was… "That’s an interesting story you have come up with. Getting rid of me with these false accusations as you strengthen yourself using the death and destruction all this would cause. How easy would it be for the strengthened you gain to take on the remaining two, who are already weakened due to our battle and a broken balance? I didn’t expect someone like you to come up with a scheme like this. I can see why the Universe would choose you. You hid yourself well, Darkness."
