Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 779 Extra: Volume 9 Summary and a Message in regards to my absence

To those who stayed with this novel for long, I am thankful for your patience with me.

4 months are a relatively a long time to stay absent in this website, which is something that I am sorry about.

I could not actually imagine how frustrated some of you about my sudden disappearance, so I am not surprised if some of you are angry at me.

But I had not received that much criticisms about my absence yet, so I guess y’all still love me.

So once again, thank you to all of you...

As for how I became absent for 4 months, it is a slightly personal thing for me, so I am unable to fully explain it.

(You can say that the Quarantine is involved with it though... Tsk, stupid pandemic, always ruining things for everyone...)

.....

....

I know the road will be slightly harder for me this time, but please believe me when I say that I managed to overcome my personal problems already, and that I am prepared to finish this novel...

Now I just hope I can find a good way to continue this story after my long lay-off...

*****************

VOLUME 9 SUMMARY

The volume started by showing two characters who were both travelling through space.

These characters are Wisteria and Astria, both who came from the Four Moons World.(Note: At the end of Volume 7, it was shown that Wisteria was recruited by the Cosmic Guards. As for Astria, she stayed inside Wisteria’s soul at that time.)

Judging by the conversation between Astria and Wisteria, the latter seemed to be officially recruited by the Cosmic Guards already, and she’s about to do a mission regarding a new planet.

Astria on the other hand was still stuck inside Wisteria, although the former seemed to be just fine with it.

The two women did not exactly say what Wisteria’s mission is about, as they did not leak any details while talking.(They must not have leaked any info since they are afraid of someone spying on them.

*********

The scene then shifted, this time showing the arrival of Alex and his companions in their new world.

These 4 did not seem happy with their arrival, and they were instead confused with what happened.

Upon their arrival, Alex suddenly found himself in the midst of receiving a sudden worship from a group of weird-looking people.

This sudden worship quickly made Alex and his allies wary of this new world, as they did not expect to see Alex being worshipped this way.

What made this worship worse was the fact that these weird people were not just worshipping Alex.

Their actions and aura indicated that they were worshipping the Abyss too, and they seem to have no qualms on hiding it.

They were all proud on worshipping the Abyss, and they appear to be interested on sacrificing even their life just for the Abyss.

This revelation immediately unsettled Alina, as she was already extremely wary about the Abyss, especially after their adventure in the Traveler’s World.

Alina already had the suspicion that Alex and the Abyss made a secret agreement without her knowledge, and it was this ’secret agreemen’ that helped Alex recover from his coma.

Even if Alina had no evidence regarding this ’secret agreement’, Alex’s actions after he woke up from his coma was enough to make Alina suspicious of him and the Abyss.

************

Because of this weird worshipping people and the denying attitude from Alex, Alina has decided to question Alex right now about his coma and his recovery.

But before she could question him, a sudden attack from an unknown group of enemies rained down on them.

Bombs that have the power to hurt Sixth Stage Beings impacted against them, forcing Alina and the others to take shelter against the attack.

Fortunately for these 4, they survived the attack.

As for their enemies who just attacked, they appeared to be sure that Alex and the others were already dead. So instead of unleashing more attacks on the area, these enemies returned to their base, leaving Alex and his allies recuperating from the attack.

Once the last of these attackers left, Alex used his power to attach a Leech King on the last departing attacker. Once attached, this Leech King began to gather info about this new world.

Alex and his allies had to wait for 30 minutes before they receive the info gathered by the Leech King, which they fortunately received without any delays.

**************

The info gathered by the Leech King did not exactly give the name of this world, but it made Alex and his allies realize what this world could be.

From the looks of it, this world was heavily centered around religions and worship. Many churches and cults exist in this world, and they were all geared on gathering as many worshippers as possible.

This info quickly made Alex and his allies uneasy, as the existence of these religions pointed out to the possibility of the True Gods surviving in this Era

**************

The dumb fairy Asteria chose this time to inform Alex and the others about their Main Mission.

Their Main Mission is to help a religion become the dominant religion in this world. It doesn’t matter how they do it, as long as in the end, their chosen religion becomes the dominant one.

Upon hearing this Main Mission, Alex quickly proposed that they support that Abyss Temple as their religion. Alex explained that with his status as the Abyss Envoy, making the Abyss Temple the dominant religion will be easy.

Alina, Queen Mother, and Professor Frances however did not agree, and they all harbor suspicion about Alex’s offer to ally with the Abyss.

These three knew that something is wrong with the Abyss right now, and given Alex’s current condition, maybe distancing themselves away from the Abyss will be the better choice.

This refusal to ally with the Abyss enraged Alex, and he seemed to be extremely pissed with the choice of his companions.

In fact, Alex became so pissed that he began attacking the trio, with his words and actions suddenly becoming slurry and disordered.

Alex then displayed a malicious behavior that he did not have before, with his aura suddenly becoming corrupted and full of evil thoughts.

Once Alex displayed this new side of his, Alina and the others quickly realized what had happened to Alex.

Alex seems to be partially-corrupted by the Abyss, with most of his rationality taken over by the Abyss’ corruption!

The former snarky Alex was now gone, and what only remained was a man whose morals and thoughts were partially twisted by the Abyss already.(Note: Alex is not yet fully corrupted by the Abyss, so he is still somewhat human. But if the corruption of his mind continues, he is bound to become a full-fledged Abyss Monster in the few weeks.)

Upon revealing his partially-corrupted stated, Alex used his power to keep Alina, Queen mother, and Professor Frances under his control. He then threatened to enslave them and use them as his ’toys’.

Fortunately for Alina and the other two, they were able to use their powers to escape from Alex.

***************

This escape brought Alina, Professor Frances, and Queen Mother inside the territory of the Church of Wisdom. Here, they met an Elder Priest who began treating Alina as the Church of Wisdom’s new Divine Maiden.

This sudden gracious treatment caught Alina off-guard, but she did not reject it. Instead, she became excited upon being treated this way.

After all, Alina realized that if she became the Church of Wisdom’s Divine Maiden, she can use her status to make this religion her ally, which will be helpful to her Main Mission.

Aside from this, her alliance with the Church of Wisdom can help Alina find a way to treat Alex and possibly free him from his partial corruption.

With these thoughts in mind, Alina quickly accepted the role of becoming the Church of Wisdom’s new Divine Maiden.

**********

After Alina made her escape, Alex did not chase after her.

Instead, he just let them be, while he brought himself towards the headquarters of the Abyss Temple.

Here, Alex tried to formulate his own plans on making the Abyss Temple this world’s dominant religion.

***************

Once Alina accepted her status as the new Divine Maiden, the whole Church of Wisdom then announced this to the whole world.

This Church then said that they will be holding a Welcoming Ceremony for Alina 3 days from now, which will show the ceremonial inauguration of Alina into the new Divine Maiden.

For this big event, the Church of Wisdom invited almost all of the religions in the world for this event.

The Church of Wisdom also invited the other Travelers along with their allied religions, something that Alina instructed to them.

*************

3 DAYS LATER, and the Welcoming Ceremony for Alina was about to start.

All the invited Travelers seemed to have arrived to the venue of the Welcoming Ceremony, and they all looked prepared for a battle.

Alex was also prepared for battle, even if he is not at the venue itself. He was still at the headquarters in the Abyss Temple, busy on making plans along with his semi-corrupted Abyss Sprites.

************

Because of the tension in the venue for the ceremony, it is hard to know who will make the first move, as everyone seemed to be wary of each other.

It was only when Alina showed herself for the ceremony that one of her enemies began making a move.

The Traveler who was allied with the Goetic Palace was the first one to make his move, and he did it at the moment that Alina appeared on the stage.

The ability that this Traveler used was a time loop that trapped everyone, including Alina inside its mysterious effects.

Alina used her time abilities to break through this time loop, and once she was free, she prepared herself to fight against this Traveler’s Companions.

But before she could fight, Alina realized that she’s not the only one who can break out of the time loop. Someone behind her showed the capability to break out of the time loop, a fact that made Alina feel both worried and excited.

After realizing that some of her opponents can also free themselves from the loop, Alina proceeded to deal with them too.

She used certain items to weaken each of the other Travelers, in hopes of slowing down their escape from the loop.

This proved to be successful, and it bought Alina some more time.

This then left Alina free, who now proceeded to fight the Companions of Traveler Xavier.(This is the Traveler who created the loop.)

To her delight, one of these Companions include a woman who was the holder of the Omniscient Skin, which was another Divine Sensory Organ.

Alina did not hold back against these opponents, and she used most of her skills to kill them in a swift manner.

The holder of the Omniscient Skin eventually died too, and her skin was seized by Alina in order to fuse it with her body.

The process of Alina fusing with the Omniscient Skin was a complicated one, and it brought her into a state of paralysis.

This paralysis did not make Alina worry, as she thought that the other Travelers were still trapped inside the loop.

But to her dismay, the other Travelers used their powers to hasten their escape.

This change left Alina panicking, as she realized that the other Travelers only needed seconds to leave the loop, while she has to wait for a minute before she can even move.

This means that a few seconds later, the paralyzed Alina will be in danger of being attacked or even killed by the other Travelers, who are obviously happy to kill her.

Alina naturally does not want to die, so she tried her best to hasten her fusion with the Omniscient Skin.

This did not help her out at all.

Fortunately for Alina, someone arrived on the venue who managed to stop the other Travelers from attacking her.

This newcomer was Alex, who was still in his semi-corrupted state.

Seeing Alex made Alina feel melancholy, although she felt more surprise with his sudden arrival.

This surprise even increased when Alex revealed the existence of Origin Shards, something which Alina had no idea about.

These Origin Shards were the reason why the other Travelers stopped their attacks, as Alex made an offer that will allow them to obtain these Origin Shards for themselves.

Alina herself could not understand how important these Origin Shards are, but she knew that if these shards can make the other Travelers retreat, then it must be greatly important.

TIMESKIP.

Fast forward a few days, and Alina could be found interacting with Astria and Wisteria.

The latter two came from their travels in the outer space, and they arrived in this planet in order to deal with the devastations brought by the Abyss.

They were taken in by Alina, who is now having a conversation with them.

The talk that they were having was interrupted when Pope Eruditus intruded on their conversation.

This Pope creeped the f**k out of everyone, and he managed to make himself look creepier when he used his unknown power on Wisteria.

This unknown power left Wisteria trapped in a mental f***kery that almost made her piss herself, although it luckily only lasted for a short time.

Alina and Astria had no idea about this power used by the Pope, and they seem to have forgotten that they were placed under its effects....

Professor Frances and Queen Mother on the other hand was having a fight at that time, which seemed to end in a good note, as the two were still alive and normal days later.

TIMESKIP

Alina, Queen Mother, Professor Frances, Wisteria, and Astria all found themselves lurking on the outskirts of their territory.

They were waiting for Alex, who volunteered to lead them towards the Ancestral Tomb.

The wait was short but also tense, as other Travelers arrived near them.

These Travelers seem to be interested on following Alex’s lead, and they showed no intent of backing off.

Once Alex has arrived, he immediately used his power to create a monstrous entity that swallowed everyone in the area.

TIMESKIP.

This monster turned out to be a portal, one which led everyone to entering the Ancestral Tomb.

This is a good news, but the portal turned out to be unstable, as everyone was placed on different portions of the tomb.

These placements were random, leaving everyone slightly confused and panicked.

Alina’s power kept her safe, and she used it to investigate the intricacies of the Ancestral Tomb.

Alina however found herself having difficulty on understanding the whole place, so she let out three people from her storage, all who she brought in to increase her chances of obtaining her goals.

While Alina was having a safe time on her location, Queen Mother was having a rather difficult one.

Queen Mother found herself trapped inside the powers of a True God Artifact, and she also found herself fighting a clone of a Traveler who seemed to have bad intentions on her.

Queen Mother survived these obstacles of course, and she discovered the fact that the True God Artifacts could be the goal of Alex and the other Travelers.

This fact was also discovered by Professor Frances, as she was captured by Alex himself, and he was the one who told her about his desire to obtain the True God Artifacts.

Alex was so powerful at this time, that Professor Frances had no chance of escaping from him.

This left her with no choice but to follow his plans, although she was doing her best to find a way to escape him.

Professor Frances eventually found a chance to deal with Alex when the latter has begun using his powers on a nearby True God Artifact.

She used her deductive skills to find any possible weakness from him, although the commotion created by the nearby Abyss Sprites ruined her chances.

While all of these was happening, the Abyss appeared to be starting the execution of his plan, which included a scheme on the Superhuman World that could potentially corrupt Alex.

Chaos was also in the mix, as he was using all of his power to kill Alex.
