Kyros wasn't mad. He was just disappointed.

"So in the end, even if I talk to being that was literally there when creation began, I still can't get any clear answer?"

"It's not my fault! I'm just Darkness!"

"But you said you could feel something!"

"I'm a special case. I know of End because Darkness exists there. I can sense its will and its desire to enslave all. So you could say, I could see the coming tribulation because it moves in the Dark. But other than that, I can't tell you anything more as to the who's, whys, the whats, and the hows. I just feel it. My Code allows me to know of it, but I can't explain it."

"Can't you tell me anything useful then?"

"Well... As their name goes, I think one is the God of Beginning, and the other is the God of End. So they could be one god. A Duality."

"???" Kyros was now even more confused.

"A duality? Why would they fight then? That doesn't make sense! End and Beginning are one?"

"I'm just guessing! It fits their names. One cannot be without the other!"

"How does that even work?"

"Am I a dual god? Shouldn't you know better?"

"What does that mean? Why would I know?"

"Jeez. Because you are a trinity! If there's anyone that can tell me what that means, it should be you!"

Kyros didn't know how to respond to that question.

"In-In any case. It sounds as if Beginning and End are Beings that were just like my parents." Kyros decided to ignore the statement. He couldn't even understand what it meant for him to be a trinity.

"I don't know. Your parents were the ones who sealed me here, so this Darkness remembers. But it's also possible that Beginning and End are chief Gods and Fallen who surpasses that level! As Beginning's chosen champion, it's really your job to figure that out. Your journey has just started, Nephilim. I can see why you are the chosen hero that this entity called Beginning will use. But... then again, you're fighting something that shakes the darkness itself. Your current strength only seems adequate to fight it and give us all a chance."

"This is just like Hyperion's advice." Kyros sighed.

"What I do know because of my Code is that I should do whatever it takes to stop End from winning. Because if not, it will truly be 'the end of life as we know it."

Kyros could not help but sigh. Although he had some revelations, it wasn't enough. The grand mystery of Beginning and End or his parents remained unsolved.

"So it seems I have to figure this out more by awakening my other Divinities or Corruption as you called it."

"The Divinity of Gods, and the Corruption of the Fallen. To fight End, you will need both. After all, the war between the Greater Gods and the Ancient Gods has shown you that you will be soon facing Gods who have turned their backs against their allies. This is definitely the work of End. Even my sons and daughters who wield my darkness have succumbed. I did all that I can to stop them, but perhaps it is in their nature to follow End." Kyriachos sighed as he gazed at the distant darkness with a melancholic expression.

"I'll see what I can do. But most Fallen will definitely be my enemy. Even this Blood Calamity is a sign that Destiny commands some great dark forces. I'm not expecting much, but I might as well ask. Do you know about Fate and Destiny?"

"Fate and Destiny, huh? I actually know a bit about them." Kyriachos smiled.

"You do?"

"Of course! They are Beings that Has Come! I'm far stronger than them. You should be fighting between the two of them, right? Let's put it this way. Fate sides with Beginning, Destiny sides with End. Fate is the power to decide things from the Beginning, while Destiny is the power to decide what the End of this something is. It can be life, planets, gods, fallens, anything. Both work hand-in-hand, but in this great conflict, these two ended up fighting against each other. The reason why I assumed Beginning and End is a duality is that Fate and Destiny are a Duality."

"So they are one god?!"

"No. They are two gods."

"But... They are a Duality. Shouldn't they be one?"

"No. They are definitely two."

"... I can see why Calaminus went insane."

"You are thinking in mortal logic again. You are a Nephilim! You should think beyond what you can see, touch and experience. What you are, is a pawn of Fate. And that Blood Calamity is one of the pawns of Destiny. And it's as if these two forces are playing Chess against each other. I believe Fate and Destiny become one the Key players that decide this battle. I recall that all the Gods and Fallen all helped Destiny and Fate in this grand wager."

"But isn't Ancient Fate dead?"

"That doesn't really stop the match. It only makes it harder for Fate to win. Think of it this way. I am Darkness. And I am sealed. Yet even though the Lord of the Fallen has been captured, Darkness continues in the universe."

"Yeah. Why is that? If Calaminus lost his Divinity, how can Time and Continuum continue?"

"Because their Codes have been passed on. Right now, there are Gods and Fallen that hold on to Darkness, to Time, and so on. Of course, for Fate, who is dead, it becomes a matter of trying to gain all of her power, just as how many are after Calaminus's power right now. You should be worried that Fate and Destiny are constantly fighting, and Fate is on the losing side. Their battle is like a chess match. One cannot immediately act while the other is moving. But because Fate's powers are now being pulled by End, Destiny has more moves compared to Fate. And frankly, I know that Beginning only has a few moves left if we compare it to the ongoing preparations that End can make. So you have to make the most of everything before Destiny makes his move!"

"So these things are linked with each other, huh? It seems that I should stop pursuing those answers now. I still have the fight to finish." Kyros sighed.

"You have no more questions?"

"More or less. Any questions I have would only leave me with confusing answers, and I'll get constant headaches in overthinking them. My high INT stat finally shows its weakness." Kyros closed his eyes and tried to search for his real body.

"What exactly is your Code? It seems that it can only exist when I drain my other souls. And I seem to lose control of this power. I can't even use Skotos Eis Phos! And that's very confusing considering I managed to use it and hurt you in this realm." Kyros frowned.

"Well... That's the thing. If you leave this place, you still won't be in control of your body. The darkness that controls your body right now is separated from your mind and soul! I can send you back to your body, but you won't be able to control it anyway! Even with your ability to turn Darkness into Light it won't work. Because your current body is in a state of total separation. You also don't have the Force, Magic or Ancient Source to cast that spell."

"What are you saying?" Kyros frowned.

"I'm saying you can't get back to your body," Kyriachos explained with a serious expression.
