Chapter 920: Meanwhile, The Sibling Fight

(MC POV)

In front of me, a rather surreal sight was happening.

Putting aside my fight with the tentacled monsters, Lilith and Iris where I was a partic.i.p.ant of our fight, I've never witnessed what a fight between cosmic beings looked like.

And there, right in front of me, two different groups of cosmic beings were engaged in a really big war, each of the beings bigger than a star.

I admit I had discounted their conflict a little, thinking that a fight between these two groups were just bickering amongst a group of children. Instead, I see planets and stars being tossed at each other like it was the most natural thing to do.

Lilia grimaced, "At least they're still limiting themselves to the uninhabited ones for now"

I can see why she was quite desperate for help now, it most certainly did not look like they were going to stop anytime soon. Who knows how things would escalate if they were going to really come to blows seriously? This portion of the universe might even be destroyed.

If only the cause of this conflict wasn't as silly then it might have even looked somewhat epic

"Mother is better!! Her elegance and perfection cannot be denied!!"

"You worthless tras.h.!.+ You're simping for some female who doesn't even acknowledge your existence! Father is infinitely better!!"

"And you're all pining for a male who loves a rock just as much as you!"

"At least Father acknowledges us! Why don't you go end yourselves to be closer to her?!"

"f.u.c.king b.i.t.c.h!!"

"Worthless tras.h.!.+"

After the insults were thrown, the planets were next to be tossed at each other like some kind of food brawl happening in a school's cafeteria.

Lilia winced as a star imploded right in front of a girl with similar features as her, the girl simply brus.h.i.+ng it off before stealing another star to throw back at her attacker.

And yet, despite everything that was happening in front of us, Iris didn't even spare a glance in that direction and continued staring at me.

"Right I suppose you want me to save everything?" I asked, watching as a boy crushed a planet in his hands before tossing it at one of his sibling's face.

"If it is not too much to ask Father" She requested while poking her fingers together.

I concentrated for a moment, seeking out all the planets and stars that were inside the territory that Lilia had claimed as her own.

Once I had a firm grasp on them, I reached out to a patch of empty s.p.a.ce that Lilia had scouted beforehand, altering the origin of the universe to make it such that these celestial bodies had always existed there in the first place.

In an instant, everything changed and the s.p.a.ce around us became devoid of any planets or stars. If you were to ask anyone else except Iris, Lilia or myself, they would have told you that this was how the universe has always been created from the start.

The children in front of us didn't even react to the sudden disappearance of the celestial bodies they have been throwing at one another, they simply resorted to tossing blasts of energy and various other abilities instead.

"I believe that should do it," I sighed, feeling more worn out because of the sight of children fighting in front of me.

"Thank you for your magnanimity, Father," Lilia bowed her head, the feeling of relief barely hidden from her voice.

"Think nothing of it, is there anything else for us here?"

Lilia looked like she was just about to answer a negative when the s.p.a.ce between the children warped and tore open a rift.

The fighting stopped and everyone turned to look at the rift, right as a nest of tentacles slithered out and tore it open wider.

"!Eerf era ew" A disembodied sound screeched from the rift.

Ok Anybody mind telling me why those stupid tentacled things managed to break themselves out of the Abyss?

'The s.p.a.ce around here served as a part of a seal to keep them in said Abyss, Master,' Iris answered helpfully telepathically. 'By altering them, the seal has also been removed.'

And you didn't tell me this before I did it because?

'Ara? Is there something wrong in letting them free, Master?'

Aside from them trying to destroy everything?

'Yes?'

Right, I forgot They are technically part of your domain to bring an End to everything, obviously you won't think of this as weird.

Oh well, I suppose a quick change in the seal's origin is needed to fix this, I'll just rewind time a bit and then make it such that this part of s.p.a.ce has always been part of the seal.

'Master, if I may?'

Hmm? What is it, Iris?

'Could I suggest that we leave them be?'

And why would I even want that?

'Their appearance here would deter these two groups from fighting and spend the time and energy to subjugate them instead, wouldn't that be a better outcome?'

Why are you even suggesting this? I thought you would want them to reduce the universe back to its roots instead?

'Oh, I admit that is still one of my wishes. But I realise that if these beings in front of us are occupied with something else, then the chances of them coming to disturb Master once more would be very little.'

Huh I guess Lilith, Lilia and Cain got on your nerves?

'Oh, that's hardly the case, Master. I just don't want to share you more than I already have. They are all beneath your attention, after all.'

Well, I guess that's expected of Iris, though she does make a good point. Having said that, are you sure these children can handle the invasion of the Great Ones? Wouldn't it be bad if they get overrun and then result in the universe's destruction?

'Ara? I can a.s.sure Master that they are more than capable of handling these wastes of existence, but if Master is worried about it, you can place an alarm of sorts here or even just spectate them for a little bit to judge if they are capable?'

That makes sense, why are you making sense?

'Ufufufu~ I only have Master in mind after all~ It would not do if there's more hindrances around~'

Fair enough

I turned to Lilia who was watching me with a worried look on her face. I guess she was concerned that I may blame her for allowing such a thing to happen by listening to her request, even if it was accidental.

"Don't worry, Lilia, I don't blame you for this. Why don't you go and check on your new territory? I'll stay and watch here for a bit before leaving myself."

"Eh? Is Father not going to fix that?"

I shrugged, "Its appearance is stopping your siblings from squabbling right? This should keep them occupied enough for a while at least."

We both turned back to look at the group of cosmic beings right as they started to blast the tentacled monster back into the rift, preventing them from escaping through the rift.

"I understand, Father In that case, please send my regards to sister Lilith for me."

I answered her with a nod and she disappeared in a flash of light.

Welp, I guess let's just get comfortable for a little while. At the first sign of trouble, I'll just reverse time and change the origin of it around.

Although it's still quite surprising that Iris would suggest something like this

Right as that thought crossed my mind, she had came forward and sat herself down beside me, linking her arm in mine while resting her head on my shoulder.

Ah So this was what she was after.

Alright, I can understand that. Let's just stay here for a little while then.
