My Yandere Wives are Transcendents

Chapter 354: Garuda, A simple Mount

"Garuda?" Eli repeated the name, his voice tinged with curiosity and intrigue.

"Yes... I am the mount for My Lord," the Eagle confirmed, its tone carrying a hint of reverence.

Eli furrowed his brow in confusion, "Who is your lord?" he inquired, sensing that the conversation was about to take a significant turn.... A deep shit!!

"Instead of saying, let me show you," the Eagle replied cryptically, its eyes gleaming with ancient wisdom. With a single powerful flap of its wings, the entire soul realm flickered and changed into a small globe, suspended in the void.

Eli's eyes widened in astonishment as he beheld the sight before him: a mesmerizing blue-coloured planet dotted with tiny landmasses, swirling with clouds and oceans.

"This is the world called 'Earth'..... Your Past world, That is" the Eagle explained before zooming in closer to the globe's surface.

"!!!!" Eli's senses were overwhelmed as he observed the intricate details of Earth, each continent and ocean pulsating with life.... it almost could fit in the size of Nex Academia!!

"Yes, The world you are in was just an extended land of this Earth...." The Eagle's words reverberated through Eli's mind, echoing with the weight of revelation.

Eli remained silent, his senses overwhelmed as he observed the chaos unfolding before him. His heart pounded in his chest as he beheld the surreal scene: strange and monstrous creatures clashed with diverse races of humans, amidst bizarre landscapes dotted with towering mountains, enigmatic pyramids, and unidentified flying objects.

The air crackled with the sounds of conflict, echoing the horrors of.... War.

"War between Gods...." The Eagle proclaimed solemnly, its golden eyes fixated on the battlefield below.

"Gods?" Eli questioned, his voice barely above a whisper.

"Yes, The Creators and Rulers of this Universe," The Eagle explained, its voice carrying heavy weight.

Eli's mind raced with a flood of thoughts and emotions, yet he remained outwardly calm. Ever since he had been ensnared by Luna's 'Judgment Spell,' he had known that existence extended far beyond the confines of his familiar world.

'Gods...ah' Eli wondered.

As he watched the once verdant land succumb to the ravages of war, consumed by flames and ash, Eli felt a profound sense of loss as if he was the one who suffered.....

"What are they fighting for?" Eli asked, his brow furrowed in deep contemplation.

"What do you think they were fighting for?" The Eagle responded with a question of its own, its gaze fixed on something unseen.

Eli's gaze shifted to the Eagle, its attention fixed on something.... or someone.... in the distance. Following its gaze, Eli spotted another Eagle.... no, the same Eagle called itself Garuda flying around, carrying someone on its back.

"Destroying the Evils...?" Eli ventured, his voice tinged with scepticism as he watched the chaotic scene unfold below.

"Hehe... Destroying the Evils, you say?" The Eagle's chuckle held a hint of irony as it observed the struggle below. Its golden eyes remained fixed on the Eagle caught in the fray, its rider besieged by adversaries from all sides.

"You know... Sometimes, no one can understand what their loved ones are thinking," the Eagle remarked solemnly, its words echoing with a sense of resignation.

Eli sighed inwardly, his gaze returning to the darkened world below, where chaos reigned supreme.

Amidst the chaos, he caught a glimpse of a figure that stirred a sense of familiarity within him...

"Lilith?" Eli frowned deepened when he saw a completely different woman yet... she resembled the woman he loved.

"Hmm? You know that woman?" The Eagle's attention shifted back to Eli, its gaze intense with curiosity.

".... Yes," Eli nodded with little hesitation, though uncertainty lingered in his mind. The resemblance was striking, yet he couldn't be certain.

"So, she's still in your world... ah?" The Eagle muttered, its voice tinged with concern.

"What do you mean?" Eli pressed for clarification, his curiosity piqued by the Eagle's cryptic words.

The Eagle sighed heavily, its expression grave as it focused on the golden-haired woman with a hint of black and the pure white-haired figure behind her.

"That woman and the one behind her... they are the dangerous ones out there," The Eagle explained solemnly, its words weighted with caution, "If you ever see her, avoid her at any cost."

Eli's mind raced with questions, his thoughts swirling like a tempest, 'I mean, I am practically sleeping with her... I am not sure how to avoid her' he thought.

"Why?" Eli finally managed to voice his question, his voice tinged with uncertainty.

"...." The Eagle frowned before speaking with disdain, "Because of that woman, The Earth turned into ruins and destroyed utterly!!!!"

The Eagle's rambling continued, laced with a palpable sense of fear, "Because of her, I... No, each and every one of the gods almost turned into ugly filth!!!!"

Suddenly, the Eagle emitted a surge of black mana, its form flickering with a grotesque resemblance to the half-skeletal eagle Eli had fought before.

Sensing the dark energy, Eli's heart sank as he recognized the signature..... it was unmistakably similar to Lilith's unsealed form.

'So, it's truly Lilith...ah,' Eli thought inwardly, his mind racing with the implications of what he had learned. Adriana's reports about Dungeon Walker's corruption by Lilith's mana flashed through his mind, connecting the dots in a web of dark truths.

As Eli watched the illusion in horror, the golden-haired with a hint of a black woman transformed the eagle into a half-skeletal monster, solidifying his suspicions.... He understood everything..... That's the past self of Garuda.

"If not for that wretched woman, I would have never turned into this ugly monster!!! and Put into a Prison called a dungeon and hurting innocent people!!! !!..... And I would never hurt My lor---"

Before the Eagle could continue, Eli interjected urgently, his patience wearing thin. "What are they fighting for, and why are you showing this to me?" Eli demanded, his voice tinged with a sense of urgency.

Eli's patience wore thin as the Eagle continued its cryptic rambling about his wife's past. He wasn't about to let an unknown entity prattle on about matters that concerned Lilith.

The Eagle sensed Eli's frustration and calmed before speaking with a gravity that commanded attention,

"They are fighting to obtain that 'ONE Thing' that could alter the entire universe's order.  And why am I showing this to you?....

It's because you are... no, you have the blood of the monster they were once eager to create," the Eagle explained, its words hanging heavy in the air as the ethereal space returned to its previous state as if the Eagle didn't know what transpired afterwards.

"I..... don't understand," Eli shook his head in confusion, struggling to grasp the significance of the Eagle's words.

"You will.... if you enter other dunge--KIKIII" The Eagle's form momentarily shifted into a skeletal visage before reverting to its golden state.

"-Ha-ha-" The Eagle paused before fixing its gaze on Eli, its golden eyes penetrating his soul.

"You are a different Creature.... You not only inherited that Monster's blood but also possess divinity," it declared solemnly.

"Divinity?" Eli's frown deepened, uncertainty clouding his features, 'What am I? The embodiment of secrets!!' Eli screamed inwardly.

Suddenly, a pink chain materialized around Eli's neck, its presence jolting him with a sense of foreboding.

'Clang, Clang'

Chains shot out towards the golden Eagle, but it effortlessly blocked them with a protective barrier, leaving Eli stunned by this.... Familiar Phenonmen?

Eli was totally shocked to see this.

"Just as I thought.... You devoured a Divinity.... but from whom?" The Eagle muttered under its breath, its gaze piercing through Eli's body.

"Tell, What am I? And What are these pink chains?  What is that 'Thing' they are fighting for? and Why Lilith did do that?" Eli's voice was firm, his eyes ablaze with determination.

However, the Eagle ignored Eli's words instead,

".... A Divinity, A Monster's Blood.... You really amusing thing that I have ever seen in my wretched life!!!

You are born to Devour and an Incomplete--KKIKKIIIIII!!!" Suddenly, the Eagle's form contorted into a half-skeletal monster as it emitted a piercing screech before lunging towards Eli.

"Tsk," Eli clicked his tongue in frustration and readied himself for the fight...

"D-Devour me.... Please" The Eagle's voice echoed.

"....."
