Outer space.
The Forbidden Existence looked coldly at Senior Mortal.
His right hand was under his chin, and a white smoke was floating around it.
The uppercut was blocked, but he seems to be dissatisfied with the sneak attack.
His gaze turned to Planet Lubo, which seemed to be far away, and the corner of his mouth curled up.
The next moment, his figure faded away!
The audience knew he was annoyed by them being too noisy, and annoyed by Senior Mortal, who stopped him with his sneak attack!
So, it was time to go back and silence them.
But in the next moment, Senior Mortal's figure faded away too!
Neither of them was there anymore!
Even the cameraman seemed confused about where they went and looked around for them!
*BOOM*
A sudden shock wave from somewhere close to the planet's atmosphere shook the whole planet!
The cameraman focused on a part of the planet where a big hole was made in the clouds, but there was nobody there!
*BOOM*
Another shock wave spread and trembled the planet and the hearts of the creatures on it!
It was completely obvious what was happening now.
The planet was under the attacks of the Forbidden Existence, and Senior Mortal was trying to stop him!
The shock waves kept appearing in different places, but nobody could see the two.
Even the cameraman, the Crystal, couldn't keep up with their speed!
The Crystal trembled, saying,
I can't catch up with their movements!>
But Little Mortal seems not to hear it.
His eyes was focused, his eyebrows frowned, and his face serious!
Entertainment Goddess looked at the focused little boy holding tightly to her hair, and for the first time she felt he was really the one controlling the two heavenly fathers!
Then she shook her head.
'No way, right?'
She then looked at the planet, and asked,
"Is it just me, or the shock waves are getting closer to the planet, as if 'Senior Mortal' can't block the other party for long?"
The white canary nodded,
"Yep, they are getting closer.
And that planet... might be in danger..."
Rose looked at her boss, and when she saw him so focused, she frowned and said,
"Alright, everyone, I think we need to try and keep the aftermath of the fight under control."
The birth treasures vibrated immediately and left through different space passages while having a secret conversation.
< What's going on? >
< Yeah, but he seems worried! >
< If even she thinks there is a problem, then there is! >
As the birth treasures saw the possible problem,
Entertainment Goddess thought this movie was getting out of hand.
In the end, it was just a movie, and this was Heavenly Father's planet, why would he mess with-
*BOOM*
Another collision between the two final bosses interrupted her thoughts, and at the same time, proved her thoughts were wrong!
This time, the shock wave was so strong that the planet, with its unimaginable mass, was pushed away!
Entertainment Goddess and the white canary were shocked.
Not only because of the power behind the shock wave, but because of the 'aftermath' that this shock wave could bring to the planet!
This galaxy-sized planet should move in a fixed pivot, and if something suddenly pushed it away, so much that they can see it from where they were, what kind of disaster could it cause?
The two looked at Rose, the assistant who seemed to see through it just a moment ago, and mobilized the birth treasures!
The Crystal, who saw it can't keep up with the two old men's speed, changed the scene for the audience to Planet Lubo.
Why?
Because, as everyone guessed, the whole planet was now in chaos!
As the shock wave spread above the planet, the sea and oceans rose and fell,
Cities and citizens rose and fell,
Mountains and rivers changed place, and living creatures were going to be buried, drowned, fall, and thrown everywhere!
Rose was the first to know what was going to happen.
When she saw Little Mortal was so nervous, she knew he was facing something that he didn't expect.
And now the birth treasures knew about it too!
It seems the warm-up was over, and the real fight has begun!
The birth treasures thought Little Mortal finally found a worthy opponent to go all out, which was himself, and that's why he was worried.
Worried about how far he can push this fight, and how much of his power can be unleashed.
The audience in Evil Mainland only watched silently.
They didn't think this was a movie anymore.
The two ancient monsters were crazy...
They were out of their minds...
The audience in the underworld, at first, was stunned, but now they were cheering!
Lilith smiled,
"That's how it should be.
If there is 'Fear and chaos', why only us in the underworld experience it?
It should be shared with all beings!
If there is an Apocalypse scene for the underworld, why not one for Planet Lubo?"
And the Planet Lubo's audience, that the Fear and Apocalypse was being shared with them,
were crying, screaming, and asking for help from every single God they could think of!
Men, women, old, young, kids, puppies, kittens, all alike...
The only reason they could do that, though, was because of the 'Frontline' effect.
Even in this Apocalypse, nobody had a scratch on their bodies, nobody was really scared to the point of 'death', and they could see the weird situation around them with a clear mind.
Even the mind of everyone was protected from collapsing by the Frontline effect, and no 'stress' could pass a certain limit for them.
The birth treasures were all using every single universe as support, to keep the damage minimal.
The sea rose and fell, but before it turned into a flood and washed over everything, it was stopped.
A city crumbled?
It would get back to normal after the 'scene' was recorded.
It was the same everywhere on the side of the planet where the battle of destiny was taking place.
And in the midst of this chaos, there was a sudden angry shout!
"Enough!"
Followed by another shock wave.
But this shock wave was far, far stronger.
So strong that the planet was sent flying, while the suns and moons around it started crashing into each other while following the planet!
Because of its strong gravity pull, when Planet Lubo starts moving in a direction that it shouldn't, it messes up the whole balance of the star system around it...
But at least, there was some good news too.
This shock wave was the last one, and it seems the battle was diverted to somewhere else by the one who shouted 'Enough'.
From the angry voice of the little boy, all those who knew who Guardian Mortal was knew it was him.
A moment later, an unknown force stopped the planet, the suns, and the moons that were crashing into each other!
And as if a rewind button was pressed, everything started turning back to how they were, and where they were.
The exploded suns turned back to before the explosion, the moons, the cities, the mountains, the rivers...
Everything...
As if this apocalypse were all a dream.
When everything was back in place,
The planet's citizens, still shivering, heard a voice that echoed through the whole planet after the 'rewind',
"Youngsters these days..."
And then there was a *sigh*.
At first, nobody understood who it was, and what he meant by that.
The voice was the same as Guardian Mortal, but the tone and the sentence forced everyone to think the other party was an elderly person.
And because they were still shocked due to the sudden documentary transformation to apocalypse, they couldn't think properly.
But after a brief moment of contemplation, many of the smart audience members reached a conclusion!
The two old men almost destroyed the planet,
Then an unknown person came out of nowhere, sent them away, and 'rewound' the destruction in a moment, while sighing at the youngsters' indifferent actions.
Who could the youngsters be, if not the two forbidden existences who went overboard?
And who could call the 'First' and 'Second' creatures ever born in this world, youngsters?
Only one person was qualified!
The person who Senior Mortal with his advanced mathematics knowledge, proved his existence!
ZERO!
....
Backstage.
This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.
Just a moment ago,
Little Mortal suddenly gasped, then panicked, and after that, disappeared.
Only a sentence was left,
"Oh, no! They became sentient!"
It was at this moment that everyone heard him shouting, 'Enough'.
But when he left, he was so panicked that he forgot to keep the 'Backstage' invisible.
So his domain disappeared when he left, and both Entertainment Goddess and the white canary gained access to the world law of the merged universe.
Just after watching a couple of records, and because of many scattered pieces of information they already had, but never believed because it seemed to be nonsense,
In just a moment, they found out about Little Mortal's 'secret identity'.
Frontline Guardian, Mortal.
They even gained access to the world law 'records' of the guardian and his journey, and saw everything the citizens of planet Lubo had access to...
The white canary was at a loss for words.
This brat actually fooled everyone with his puppet collection,
And then he messed with everyone using this nonexistent 'heavenly father', which was himself when using his 'judgment by age' technique on some random old man,
And he himself just showed the 'silly, weak, harmless, but crazy and fearless' personality on the surface...
Even the so-called invulnerability they thought was heavenly father's doing was nothing but a Frontline effect.
"This kid is so strong...?"
The white canary muttered to itself and looked at Entertainment Goddess.
She was actually one of the first people it saw under this Frontline effect.
But she seems not to know, or to be exact, not to believe him to be the 'real' boss behind the scenes, even though he told her many times...
A couple of space passages opened at this moment, and the birth treasures came back, while vibrating.
They were asking what happened just now that forced Boss to make a move?
Little Mortal himself appeared at this moment and said,
"Little crystal, record the scene from afar, don't get close until I make a move to finish them off!"
Then he said to Entertainment Goddess, who was looking at him blankly,
"Sorry, Director, but due to an emergency situation, we can't continue with the script!"
Entertainment Goddess, after a brief moment, responded,
"Don't worry, I know where I can add my own final scene..."
In the script, she was supposed to use her avatar technique, summon all +100 million copies of the 'avatars' in her crystal's database belonging to different higher beings and managers,
Divide them into two groups of 'evil' and 'good', depending on their law and techniques, and let them take action on behalf of the evil side, which was the forbidden existence, and the good side, which was Senior Mortal, as the final scene.
Little Mortal scratched his head,
"When I make my move, it will be the end of the movie.
Where are you going to use your technique?"
And Entertainment Goddess said with a smile that wasn't a smile,
"Not telling."
Little Mortal gasped and was going to say something, but a tremor came from somewhere in space.
"Sorry, I need to go!"
And disappeared again.
The birth treasures started vibrating,
and from the empty circles being made in the midst of them, we can see where the two are fighting and pushing these galaxies away with the shockwave produced by their fights!>
They are throwing stars like candy at each other and eating them!>
*BAM*
While the birth treasures were watching the fight excitedly,
And saw the two pairs of palms collide, at first, only a shock wave spread.
Far stronger than the one pushing planet Lubo.
All of the light sources were now in a ring formation, around an empty space with the two old men at the center.
The cameraman could finally show the scene to the audience, because the two opponents didn't move after their palms stuck together, and only looked into each other's eyes with solemn faces.
Before the audience had the time to think about what they were doing, they saw them, and the space around them, start trembling violently.
A vibration started spreading from their bodies in all directions, even creating random cracks in space.
It didn't take long before even the 'camera' started vibrating, and then planet Lubo, the audience's hearts, and the vibration even reached the underworld!
As time passed, the vibration increased more and more, and soon, the whole universe was trembling!
Looking from the outside, cracks appeared on the bubble barrier around it!
But even then, it wasn't the end!
The vibration reached the Evil Mainland, and as it gets more violent, it even affects the mainland's surface, and cracks spread everywhere!
The underworld wasn't spared from this fate either!
Every creature in the zone was getting messages from world law and underworld law to do something about this world-ending clash between the two crazy forbidden existences that was literally shattering the world!
But the only thing everybody could do was to just stand frozen on the spot, sweat profusely, and look at the apocalypse unfold in front of their eyes blankly for the second time, and on a bigger scale!
In the midst of this world-ending and hopeless situation, a voice that many would remember as the voice of a 'guardian angel' in the future sounded.
"You two old fossils dare to destroy things in my neighborhood!!?"
Even though the voice was childish, the anger emitting from it was evident.
The cameraman, who seemed to be as scared as everybody else, 'zoomed out' the camera view that was focused on the two old men.
Farther away from the two old monsters, a little boy in martial arts clothes was now floating in the empty space with something in his hands, his face filled with rage!
Black veins had popped up all over his skin, eyes wide open and bloodshot, teeth gritting, while looking at the two furiously.
"W-When did you..."
"B-But I'm your brother..."
These were the two sentences that came out of the two old men's mouths with now dumbfounded faces.
Only now did the audience come back to their senses and sensed the return of the 'calmness' around them.
The world-ending vibration was gone, and everything was back to normal.
They could finally breathe again.
But the vibration wasn't the only thing gone.
At this moment, two beating hearts were in the hands of the angry little boy, that from the stunned faces of the two old men and the holes in their chests,
You could clearly tell it was their hearts that were 'gone'!
"Seems you don't understand..." said the little boy to his supposedly twin brother, and the forbidden existence.
"I am Zero!
And I am the only one in this neighborhood with the exclusive right to kill and destroy!"
And clenched his fist with the two hearts in it!
The forbidden existence and Senior Mortal both shouted at the same time, with faces filled with fear!
"Noooo!" x2
But it was too late for them...
*Boom*
Both of them exploded after their 'hearts' were destroyed.
Only some remains of them were now floating in space.
Looking closely, there were many light spots sparkling between the remains, and many dark spots that seemed to pull the light spots towards them as if they were high gravity points.
Seeing this, Little Zero snorted and, after doing a couple of hand seals, said,
"Divine technique, time reversal, to before these two old fossils started this mess!"
And clasped his hands together.
The next moment, as if time really started moving backward,
The suns, black holes, galaxies, and anything that was thrown and swallowed by the two crazy monsters started appearing,
turning back to normal, and going to where they were before the two forbidden existences started their battle and messed up everything...
Then his gaze slowly turned to the 'camera'.
The moment the audience saw his cold gaze, it didn't matter who, except those who knew him; everybody else looked away, trying to dodge his gaze.
Though his cold gaze started changing.
A cheeky smile appeared on his lips, and in a moment, he turned back to the little boy who liked to mess with people's emotions.
"And this, ladies and gentlemen, was the End of Mainland's trilogy."
The audience, hearing the announcement, wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and sighed in relief.
The Guardian mortal that they were familiar with was back.
"Unfortunately, due to some unexpected events, we were forced to record the third part of the trilogy after the end of the second part.
For those who don't know,
The first part was,
'Mainland Chronicles: Heavenly Father Enters the Fray'.
The second part was,
'Mainland Chronicles: The Beautiful Deceit'.
And the third and last part was... "
Little Mortal paused for a moment and said,
"'Mainland Chronicles: Zero's Fury'.
I hope everyone enjoyed it!
Remember, soon, you can watch Fate's movie, and its battle with the level 3 civilization.
I might even be in that movie depending on Fate's script.
See you all soon!
Don't forget to like and subscribe!
Mortal, out!"
At first, it was only silent.
But a moment later, the whole planet and the underworld erupted with cheers!
Only the high-level creatures, who knew the world was really going to end, were still frozen and felt envious of the naivety of the low-level creatures...
And so, the screen turned black, and the names of the actors, special effects team members, and the Director were displayed.
The End.
.....
Exiled Zone.
The three ancient ones were watching the battle of destiny.
When the two forbidden existences went to the underworld, their hearts started beating faster and faster.
When Lilith, with the help of Senior Mortal, sent the forbidden existence out, they sighed in relief and became sure of the current condition of Lilith's realm.
After that, when the two broke the barrier of the single universe connected to the mainland, they didn't see any close view of planet Lubo, and that part was censored for them.
They only thought that it was a unique planet with some shiny objects orbiting around it.
And finally,
They saw that the two forbidden existences were assassinated by their teacher, and the two died before the screen turned dark, to show them that the battle had ended, and the result of it was determined!
"That was our teacher!"
"He killed even his own brother?"
"And he called himself Zero... Is that his real name?"
"I'm sure he was just 'joking'... But I think we know now why he said there is no 'side'!"
"Indeed, he eliminated the variables, and now he is the only one left behind the scenes, orchestrating the whole show!"
"And because of his 'best hide-and-seek player' title, he is a forbidden existence that can't be detected by world law!"
The three ancient ones were shocked and confused at the same time.
What was the real goal of their teacher?
They were really puzzled now, but,
"I have no idea why he killed Senior Mortal, too, but at least we know there is no forbidden existence out there anymore that is not on our side..."
"Our zone is sealed by the original world law, so we can't ask the world law outside about it to be sure,
But if Fate comes here, the moment the seal opens for it, we will know."
"Yes, if the 'exterminate' order is gone, it means there are no more forbidden existences."
"Shall we start then? We can use the current chaos to execute our plan..."
"Yes, let's begin.
And from world law feedback about guardian law,
I thought of something that might help us join 'Fate'."
"Oh, what is it?"
"Let's go, I'll tell you on the way, and bring the Crystal with you, it's crucial.
Let's use its 'invisibility' to our advantage."
And so, the ancient ones' hunting season started.
......
Back in the Merged Universe.
On a random empty planet, Little Mortal looked at the sky while nodding to himself.
"That should be it.
I turned everything back to normal."
At this moment, he heard someone behind him.
"We can start your education class then..."
Little Mortal turned around and said,
"What are you talking about, big si-"
But gasped in the middle of his sentence when he saw how Entertainment goddess, who had just appeared in this place, looked now.
Her hair was completely white, and so was her dress.
She was in her real appearance now, and emitting no feelings.
White, completely blank.
Little Mortal gulped nervously,
"W-What else is left...?"
Entertainment goddess sighed,
"You... You broke your promise..."
"I-I didn't! Wait, which one?"
"You promised to become the kindest, but I told you, this world doesn't only need a kind creature, but a monster too..."
Little Mortal puffed his chest,
"Yes! And I became the kindest monster!"
Entertainment goddess shook her head,
"That's where you are wrong, and that's where you broke your promise.
You didn't become the kindest monster, but a crazy monster who plays with the emotions of those who are around you..."
And as she said that, she started rolling her sleeves up, and her hair and dress color changed to black.
Little Mortal started getting nervous,
"No! Listen to me, big sister! It was all part of my plan!
I am the kindest! Believe me!"
Entertainment goddess smiled coldly, and a survey was sent to everyone through the Crystal on the spot.
[ 1. Guardian mortal is the kindest.
2. Guardian mortal is a crazy monster who plays with everyone's emotions.]
And it didn't matter who voted what, Entertainment goddess forced the survey to 100% [2] as the answer, and ended it on the spot.
Little Mortal looked at the result in disbelief!
"Oh, no! How could everybody betray me?"
And when he looked at Entertainment goddess again, he almost turned around and ran.
Now, her black dress was designed with graves...
The whole thing was a picture of a cemetery, but all of the graves had the same name on them.
[ Mortal. ]
"B-Big sister... What are you going to do?" asked Little Mortal with a trembling voice.
Entertainment goddess raised her hand and said,
"I'm going to educate you, and bring you back to the right path..."
Little Mortal pointed at the graves and shouted with a tone filled with fear,
"No! You are going to kill me! If not, why do all of those graves have my name on them?"
Entertainment goddess chuckled and said,
"That's the price for your education!"
And brought her hand down, as if trying to knock on Little Mortal's head, while saying,
"Assemble."
And a red light suddenly flew towards her falling hand, and before anyone could react, a red sword appeared for her to grab!
Woosh!
As Entertainment goddess slashed down with the sword, Little Mortal dodged to the right while screaming,
"You are betraying me, silly sword?"
And when he looked at Entertainment goddess again after dodging her attack, his jaw dropped!
Entertainment goddess was now fully equipped with a group of familiar birth treasures!
She was in a shiny full-body armor with a cool design that Little Mortal was seeing for the first time,
A stick in one hand with shining symbols, a red sword in the other, emitting a cool purple aura,
A beautiful crown hovering over her head with special effects, a knife circling around her making noises, a gauntlet matched with the armor, an hourglass, an orb, a mirror, and in total +30 birth treasures...
Little Mortal was at a loss...
He shouted with a voice filled with pain,
"H-How can you all betray me?
A-And you were never this cool when I said 'Assemble'!
You traitors!"
But nobody answered him.
And as if this gathering wasn't enough, a white canary flew to Entertainment goddess and sat down on her shoulder.
It added a white aura to all of her special effects, adding the 'speed buff'.
"Let's give this brat a lesson!
That notebook said it won't participate in the education class, but it can stop him from hiding."
Little Mortal was shocked,
"Wait! I can't hide anymore!"
While Little Mortal was in shock,
Entertainment goddess's figure appeared beside him in the blink of an eye as she said,
"Let's begin the Euction class!"
*BAM*
