Chapter 2190: The End of Hope

The Primordial Record

From this point forward, Eos had escaped the painting; by not stretching it out, he remade it.

This void was never supposed to be black and empty. The light of Origin should have filled it up, but the Great One preferred the shadows, and this shadow had been broken, and the light of Origin was beginning to spread.

Eos raised his right hand, and around his wrist were what looked like six golden and black bangles. He gestured towards the charging Enoch, causing the bangles to fly out of his wrist and transform to the massive form of his Origin Ouroboros mid-flight.

Their size was nearly impossible to measure as only the top of their bodies emerged from the breaking dimension of space-time, making it impossible for their true size to be determined. It was eerily possible that Existence, as it was, could no longer contain the serpents; they had simply grown too big!

The serpents and Enoch slammed into each other. Enoch had the weight of a hundred dead Existences behind him, making each step he took to be the death of a trillion Realities, and his breath was the silence after the last scream, and each of his thoughts was the end of a possibility that had never been born.

Enoch may be the most powerful being in the collapsing Existence, but to these serpents, he was nothing but food.

Their maws opened so wide that the ten thousand Origin Realm would fit inside it with space to spare, and the fangs of the serpents would make a primordial shark tremble in shame.

In that instant, their golden black bodies became even more solid as a weight that could crush everything radiated from them; even Primordials would be crushed to nothing trying to come close to the serpents from the aura of their weight alone, and Enoch’s speed was slowed to a crawl.

More hands appeared around Enoch to push back the serpents, but their weight was not something that could be extinguished, as it was an intrinsic part of them. Enoch grunted in anger, knowing that he would have to kill these serpents if he wanted to reach Eos and stop him from destroying Existence in this manner.

Enoch’s grip tightened, and from his core, the power of End began to flow without restraint, creating a gauntlet of End around each of his arms, and this gauntlet began releasing a vast amount of End into the bodies of the serpent, causing them to roar in pain as they began to wither.

"You all are not worthy!" Enoch roared, and his entire body erupted like a supernova. The power of End tore through the bodies of the serpents, and they roared in anguish as their bodies glowed a sickening black color before they exploded.

Enoch watched them vanish, and he smirked, recreating multiple new arms and walking towards Eos.

He stopped before Eos and pressed his face closer to his own.
