Beyond this would be a battle in the realm of God where everything happened according to one’s thoughts. The current realm could already be considered a battle of the gods by most people. Indeed, Benetnash and Orm were powerful enough to fight in this realm.
However, they understood it after hearing her laughter. The Big Bangs and Big Crunches so far were just playful attacks by the Goddess, who was merely messing around. She hadn’t been fighting seriously.
But the next stage would be even higher. They would have to rise to the peak of infinity. It would be an endless struggle involving infinite multiples of infinity.
It might be a different matter if the opponent was Ruphas, but Benetnash wouldn’t have such a strong fighting spirit when her opponent was the Goddess. She would probably lose her momentum mid-way.
On the other hand, Orm didn’t have enough conviction that he was the strongest entity. Thus, that inconsistency would become noticeable along the way, casting a shadow on his ability to become the strongest. He would surely be left behind mid-way.
That wouldn’t do. One needed to be more selfish than anyone else to win this battle. One would need to hate losing more than anyone else. One had to hold fast to the belief that oneself was the strongest without a shadow of doubt…Only someone who could do so would be able to challenge the Goddess.-Chapter 187
