Chapter 1055: Leon’s Weakness (Final)
This situation... the Myriad Weaver?!
The bizarre cicada song, short yet seemingly endless, as if composed by dozens of voices, caused everyone present to change their expressions in unison.
As expected.
Seeing the green light that had spread among the angels, forcibly outlining the contours of their flesh, blood, and will, Leon couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. He then informed the waiting Scorpio Director on the “phone,” reminding them to be ready to act at any moment.
During the previous battle against the Nine Archangels, he had only brought the Primordial Sin Demon God and not involved the Scorpio Director or the Zodiac Chiefs, to prevent the sudden arrival of the Azure and Crimson Sovereigns.
Before deciding to launch a strong attack and a sneak assault, he had considered various scenarios, the worst of which was the Myriad Weaver and the Crimson Sovereign suddenly appearing while he was locked in a life-or-death struggle with the Nine Archangels, catching him off guard.
Thus, the Scorpio Director’s primary task was not to assist in the assault on Heaven’s Mountain but to ensure the safety of the Eternal Lifespan held by Virgo Director and to guard against the Azure and Crimson Sovereigns as well as the Slayer King Guild’s sneak attack.
As for the current situation...
Glancing at the angels gradually being enveloped by the hazy green light and hearing the warning from the Scorpio Director on the “phone,” a trace of helplessness crossed Leon’s face.
Although this wasn’t the worst-case scenario, the Azure and Crimson Sovereigns hadn’t intervened at the height of the battle, it wasn’t much better than the worst-case scenario...
“You... it’s you?!”
Just as Leon was lamenting his usual bad luck, the Thousand-Eyed Angel, with only nine hundred and ninety-five eyes remaining, seemed to realize something and angrily shouted at the surrounding green light:
“You’ve been manipulating me all along?”
“Indeed.”
A gentle, smooth, and magnetic voice echoed, and the hazy green light converged into a slender human figure, who politely bowed to the crowd.
“Sir Hesith, Sir Sindo, Sir Jiderlin... Sir Samael, Sir Phiros... and Sir Asmodeus, it has been a long time since I last saw all of you.”
After carefully reciting the names of the six archangels and the six Primordial Sin Demon Gods, the Myriad Weaver, now in human form, turned to face the silent Leon and smiled.
“Also... to the first-time meeting Sir Leon, I hope you are well.”
Right, I might have been well before you came, but now I’m just anxious.
Looking at the Myriad Weaver, whose form was nothing but a projection of power with no physical substance except for five eyes, Leon narrowed his eyes and, without acknowledging its greeting, went straight to the point:
“Did you manipulate these angels?”
“Yes.”
Like a classic villain who prides themselves on their intellect, the Myriad Weaver unhesitatingly admitted to its actions and then nodded apologetically to the enraged Thousand-Eyed Angel.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t intend to involve you, but the actions of this god of food were too swift. From the moment he broke through the blockade of Yesterhome and reached the Abyss, it took him less than two weeks to capture five Primordial Sin Demon Gods.
In that situation, if I hadn’t done something, by the time the Crimson Sovereign and I arrived at Heaven’s Mountain, we would have been greeted by seven Primordial Sin Demon Gods and countless Demonic Angels...
Oh, by the way, ‘Demonic Angels’ is the term I coined to describe the Purple-Skinned Angels who were contaminated by the mutated Capricorn secret arts and developed some demonic traits. I named them as such when I discovered and decided to utilize them.”
Utilize them?
After hearing the Myriad Weaver's words, the Thousand-Eyed Angel seemed to understand something and angrily demanded:
"Those Purple-Skinned Angels were your doing? Did you control me?"
"Strictly speaking, the creator of those demonic angels is still the Lord of Food. I merely gave them a nudge after discovering these intriguing creatures, accelerating their transformation process.
If I had to say what I did, it would be that I manipulated the Hundred-Eyed Patriarch, using his hands to help you regain your sanity and subtly mixing my power into your eyes."
After blinking the five eyes it had taken from the Thousand-Eyed Angel, the Myriad Weaver explained with a gentle expression:
"As for controlling you, I actually dislike such crude methods. Let me put it this way: your wisdom is an outstanding truth, but knowledge is the foundation of wisdom.
So, I don't need to fully control you. I just need to quietly erase some of your knowledge, making you overlook certain critical information. You'll naturally make the corresponding judgments, doing what I want you to do, like having a good fight with the Lord of Food."
No wonder...
After hearing the Myriad Weaver's words and seeing its five eyes gazing in different directions, Leon's final doubts were finally resolved.
No wonder the Thousand-Eyed Angel would propose such harsh conditions even when not having the upper hand, threatening to return the Eternal Lifespan to the Slayer King Guild.
Even though they sensed a threat from the Onyx Divinity Cult and had the Primordial Sin Demon God as a powerful trump card, their decision to completely turn against him seemed too extreme, all because of the Myriad Weaver's influence.
And no wonder, just as he had unified the Abyss and thought he could sweep through everything, the Nine Archangels of Heaven's Mountain immediately revived, forcing the situation back to a stalemate. They were clearly set up by the Myriad Weaver to balance the power dynamics.
"So, what are you going to do now?"
Having fully understood the situation, Leon fixed his gaze on the Myriad Weaver and said expressionlessly:
"The Primordial Sin Demon God can no longer act. Even if you manipulated her and the six archangels to continue fighting me, and even if you joined the battle yourself, the final victor would still be me.
Although you still have the Crimson Sovereign who hasn't shown up, I have three directors and six zodiac directors on my side. No matter what other tricks you have up your sleeve, you won't get the Eternal Lifespan this time."
"Yes, you're right."
Nodding slightly in agreement with Leon, the Myriad Weaver smiled:
"I've gathered all the forces I could utilize, not only sealing the present world in advance but also having the Slayer King Guild deliver my eyes to Heaven's Mountain to delay your progress as much as possible before the Crimson Sovereign and I arrived.
But your tenacity truly exceeded my expectations. Controlling the Primordial Sin Demon God and ambushing the Fate Angel were both out of my plans. Now, even if the Crimson Sovereign and I join the battle, we have no chance of winning... but that doesn't mean I will definitely lose."
Smiling at Leon, the Myriad Weaver pointed at the Primordial Sin Demon God, who was bowing her head. Seeing Leon's slightly tense expression, the Myriad Weaver continued with a smile:
"To defeat someone, you don't always need to suppress them with force. Finding their weakness can be just as effective... Am I right, responsible elder brother?"
