14 The Person Impersonating the Goddess!

Chapter 14 - The Person Impersonating the Goddess!

As evening approached, Ethan sat in his room, gazing at the night scenery outside, feeling somewhat peculiar.

Just yesterday, he was staying in a shabby temporary rental, and today he resides on the top floor of Tower of Babel.

Life is truly mysterious.

"The magic attribute of 'Imaginary Numbers.' Although this world doesn't have 'Imaginary Number Space,' why do I feel like I can still use the power of 'Imaginary Numbers'?"

This feeling was strange, and almost as if to confirm Ethan's thoughts, magic energy surged in Ethan's palm.

A faint spatial crack began to tear open, and Ethan widened his eyes in astonishment.

He was just trying it out, not expecting it to actually succeed.

'Imaginary Number Magecraft' is not widespread in the world of "Fate/Type-Moon," with one of the most famous users being Matou Sakura.

After her darkening, Sakura could absorb opponents' moves into 'Imaginary Number Space,' rendering them ineffective—a power similar to 'Spatial Exclusion.'

And this subtle space crack revealed a possibility to Ethan.

Although he didn't sense anything like 'Imaginary Number Space,' Ethan wasn't aware of what lay on the other side of this spatial crack.

However, all of that was irrelevant. If he could develop this power, it might actually work.

In a fight, opponents wouldn't be able to land their techniques on him, while his skills could reach them.

That would be interesting, a blatant cheat.

"Let's test it out."

Picking up the unfinished teacup, Ethan created another spatial crack.

The teacup was immediately sucked in, but then, Ethan's magic reserve began to rapidly deplete.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of his magic reserve was consumed.

This sudden turn of events startled Ethan, and he quickly withdrew his magic energy, causing the spatial crack to disappear.

"No, I can't mess around like that. I almost screwed things up."

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Ethan was genuinely frightened just now.

It seems that it's better not to mess with these unknown things.

One small mistake could lead to playing oneself to death.

His promising life had just begun, and if something went wrong, it would be a big loss.

Knock~ Knock~

At this moment, a knocking sound echoed.

Ethan slightly froze, then understood that it was probably his goddess wanting to see him.

After all, this place wasn't like any normal place; ordinary people couldn't just come in.

Creak~

Approaching the door and opening it, as expected, Ottar, resembling a fierce beast, stood outside.

"Lady Freya wants to see you."

"Now?"

"Now!"

"Then let's go."

Glancing at Ethan, Ottar didn't waste words and turned to walk away.

Ethan closed the door after turning around.

Although there was no one else who could come here, it was a good habit to close the door before leaving.

Because the destination was right next door, he reached it in a few steps.

"Lady Freya is inside. Go in."

"What about you?"

"......"

Glancing at Ethan, Ota didn't answer, as if no one was talking to him.

Faced with Ota's attitude, Ethan's mouth twitched.

'Fine, you're impressive. Just you wait. When I climb onto the goddess's bed, I'll make sure you regret standing here.' Ethan crazily complained inwardly.

Thud~ Thud~

Taking a deep breath, Ethan forced himself to calm down and then knocked on the door.

"Come in~"

Freya's languid tone echoed from behind the door.

After hearing it, Ethan finally opened the door and walked in.

From start to finish, Ottar seemed like a security guard, with a calm expression.

As soon as he entered, Ethan saw someone dressed in a gauze-like gown. In the slightly dim light of the room, she emitted an unparalleled charm.

However, looking at the person, Ethan felt something strange in his heart.

"Goddess Freya?"

"Ethan, come over and sit down~"

With a charming smile, coupled with that seductive beauty, Ethan felt a surge of blood in his heart.

Well, calling him over on such a late night, did she plan to let him 'serve' in bed?

But, she just rejected him earlier. Why did she change her mind after nightfall?

Could it be that the lonely night is making her restless?

Perhaps with doubts in his mind, Ethan felt that something was off as he looked at the enchanting goddess in front of him.

In Ethan's understanding, Freya wouldn't behave in such a coquettish manner.

Rather than saying she wouldn't, it's more accurate to say she doesn't need to.

As the goddess of beauty, just her presence alone was the most beautiful and tempting existence.

However, the person in front of him seemed more like an imitator, mimicking the goddess of beauty, pretending to be Freya in their own way.

"Who are you?"

"Huh? Who am I? Ethan, you left for a while, and already forgot who your 'goddess' is?"

The power of God is like a prison! God's grace is unfathomable!

In an instant, a vast divine might descended, and Ethan was instantly overwhelmed.

His body half-knelt on the ground, and there were 'crack' crunching sounds between his bones.

This terrifying pressure seemed to want to shatter his soul.

However, after going through this, Ethan 100% confirmed that the woman in front of him was definitely not Freya.

"Impersonating a goddess is a heinous crime. If I catch you, you'll have a hard time explaining."

Looking at the 'Freya' in front of him, Ethan already had some guesses in his mind.

In Orario, there was only one person who could imitate goddess Freya, and considering their location was the top of Tower of Babel, the identity of the other party was self-evident.

Buzz—

However, after this incident, the dormant 'malice' in Ethan's soul began to stir under the stimulation of divine might.

The malice that carried 'All the Evil of the World' truly revealed a tip of the iceberg in this moment, and Ethan's magic energy was instantly tainted.

Just like the 'Colorless Great Grail' contaminated into the black 'All the Evil of the World.'

"What is this~"

Watching the black mist emanating from him, 'Freya' was slightly surprised.

This was the first time she encountered such a thing.

Swish—

The black mist transformed into a large hand, directly reaching for 'Freya.'

Ethan believed that once caught, the malice of 'All the Evil of the World' would entwine around her like 'maggots on dead bones.'

He could bear 'All the Evil of the World' without being affected because he had the system's assistance.

During the integration process, his soul was protected by the system.

However, for others, they would undoubtedly be devoured by this endless malice.

Even Servants, once tainted by the black mud manifested from 'All the Evil of the World,' would undergo corruption.

As for her identity, Ethan didn't care. He was never a magnanimous person.

Since she dared to harm him, she deserves some punishment.

"Not good, can't evade—"

Watching the approaching 'black mist,' 'Freya's' pupils shrank, and despair rose in her heart.

"All right, that's enough!"

Boom—
