Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I pioneered a divine kingdom of faith.

Chapter 341 Rei Ayanami: What will the God Realm be like?

"What is this? Why do I have this strange feeling...?"

The girl knelt in the meditation space.

Fingers supporting the ground.

Countless fragmented memories kept surfacing.

Those were scenes from the past, scenes she had never witnessed before, but... when the image of her own death appeared countless times.

Rei Ayanami finally understood.

It turns out that I have died countless times, all under the manipulation of Gendo Ikari.

A strange sense of familiarity.

There was also intense hatred in my heart.

Rei Ayanami's sealed emotions suddenly erupted, and tears streamed down her face.

Although it is a spiritual entity.

But this couldn't stop her from hating.

He was once an apostle, incredibly powerful beyond imagination.

They came to Earth in search of ancient messages.

In the end, however, they became someone else's puppet.

The body was sealed off.

The soul has been stripped away!

Countless experiments caused her unbearable pain.

At that moment, Rei Ayanami flew up, and her reflection was Lilith herself.

"What should I do?"

The girl was confused.

For some reason, she didn't want to merge with Lilith, because if she did, she would be consumed by endless rage.

You will become someone else.

In the remaining memories.

She was vaguely influenced by Yui Ikari's lingering soul.

Just then, a beam of light descended, and Rei Ayanami looked towards the light, where a figure far more powerful than her own body stood.

A voice from the depths of her soul was telling her.

If you go before that great figure, you will surely find true peace.

And so, Rei Ayanami began her flight.

Although she was overwhelmed by the burden on her soul and wanted to collapse several times, she wanted to come before the gods in the face of true redemption and true peace.

Maybe one year, maybe ten years.

Rei Ayanami didn't know how long she had been walking; there was no sound in the darkness.

Only that enormous divine body illuminated Rei Ayanami like a bright lamp.

She didn't see that every time she struggled forward, the shadow beneath her weakened, until she gradually arrived before the deity.

Rei Ayanami finally smiled.

But I had no strength left, and my body collapsed involuntarily.

There was no pain; instead, my body felt like it was soaking in a hot spring.

After Rei Ayanami's soul was nourished, she finally awoke, and at that moment she was seen in the palm of a god's hand.

Looking at the other party's enormous body.

Rei Ayanami knelt reverently on the ground and whispered, "God, can you answer my question?"

"What do you want to ask?"

A gentle yet authoritative voice rang in her ears.

Rei Ayanami paused for a moment, then sniffled and said, "I know I am an apostle, and I also understand the suffering Lilith endured. If I abandon that part of myself, I would not be myself."

But I also know that if I don't abandon it, I will be consumed by hatred. God, what should I do?

"Lilith is your predecessor. She only had beastly instincts and no rationality. This body and this soul are your own evolved form."

When you enter the world of meditation, you will see Lilith deep within your soul.

Abandon your animalistic instincts and maintain your rationality.

This is the path all living beings take towards intelligence; though arduous, it is well worth it.

Rei Ayanami understood, and she looked down at her lower body.

Without Lilith, there is only his own shadow.

Hatred vanished without a trace.

She regained her true self, capable of hate...and love...and longing.

A complete soul.

To be precise, the Imperial God used divine power to cleanse her of her bestial nature and restore her soul.

After figuring all of this out.

Rei Ayanami knelt on the ground and whispered, "Thank you for your help, God. I will never forget it and will soon go to the realm of the gods to serve you."

"Yes, go back... You should wake up! As for how to face that divine messenger, I think you'll handle it."

"Yes, God!"

A white light shone in front of Rei Ayanami.

Then consciousness returned to the body.

The pain from her injured skin subsided, and Rei Ayanami smiled as her body became as white as jade.

I now have a human body.

Yet it possesses power ten times greater than that of the Apostles.

They could even kill Gendo Ikari.

But Rei Ayanami did not do that. Instead, she looked up at the distant starry sky, where many of her former kindred spirits resided.

"The fruit of wisdom isn't so easy to find... Oh well, they're just some wild beasts anyway..."

It was already broad daylight.

Rei Ayanami packed her clothes and then disappeared from the room.

The next moment, she arrived at NERV's underground base, where Lilith's physical body had completely withered away.

Because of the disappearance of the soul.

It prevents the body from having the ability to heal itself.

"Looks like I don't need to lift a finger..."

Rei Ayanami said something indifferently, then turned and left again.

She already had feelings for someone, so naturally she didn't want her former body to be experimented on at will.

When Rei Ayanami reappeared, she was already behind Gendo Ikari.

"You've regained your memories?"

Gendo Ikari, seeing the anger in Rei Ayanami's eyes, was still somewhat afraid.

The more powerful a person is, the stronger their perception becomes.

He felt completely insecure at that moment.

Like prey before a lion.

His Adam's apple bobbed slowly.

He swallowed hard.

"Yes, so there are some things I need to ask you for?"

"What?"

"Some of the emotions that are appropriate!"

boom.

Rei Ayanami threw a punch, striking Gendo Ikari's glasses directly.

There's a saying that goes, "I'll smash your glasses."

Now Rei Ayanami has done it, and not only has she smashed Gendo Ikari's glasses, but she's also been beating him up relentlessly.

Punch after punch.

Every punch lands squarely.

"You used fragments of your wife's soul to interfere with my soul; you deserve this punch!"

"This is the sin of you cutting my flesh, and you should bear it!"

"Every time you die, you should break a bone!"

Rei Ayanami ruthlessly swung her arm, and with each strike, the sound of bones cracking rang out.

Inside the quiet meeting.

Gendo Ikari embarks on his hellish journey.

However, he remained very calm inside.

He deserved to be beaten up after doing such cruel things; he earned it himself.

Even though he was being beaten.

But Rei Ayanami did not want to die.

Thirty minutes later.

Gendo Ikari lay on the ground, his face covered in blood, and the ground was also covered in cracks.

Rei Ayanami flicked the blood off her hands and said indifferently, "From today onwards, we're even. Let me know when the altar is finished!"

"Thank...cough...thank you for forgiving me."

"You should thank the gods, you foolish mortal! If you weren't the god's messenger, I would have killed you just now."

Rei Ayanami glared at him fiercely, then turned and left.

This time she wanted to go for a walk on the beach.

Take a break and relax.

Although Gendo Ikari was beaten terribly, he was still laughing heartily.

At least we survived one ordeal.

seaside.

Rei Ayanami walked on the beach with an unexpectedly relaxed expression, even humming a little tune.

"What kind of world is the realm of gods? Does it also have such coastlines, or is it like that mysterious starry river...?"

The girl was thinking.

Rei Ayanami has no interest in anything now except for the gods, which she longs for.
