Chapter 1073: A World of Water.
Chapter 1073: A World of Water.
Amaterasu was walking with Gaia and Nyx through the mansion until the three goddesses sensed what Victor was doing.
"Hmm?"
In sync, the three looked up and started watching what Victor was doing.
"... Why is Poseidon there?" Gaia asked in a rather disinterested manner.
"Darling will probably put an end to him since Medusa is already completely bored after spending years torturing him," Nyx replied.
"... She got bored quickly," Gaia spoke with a bit of surprise. If it were her, she would keep the god in torment for all eternity.
"Indeed." Nyx agreed, sharing the same opinion as Gaia. "Well, that doesn't matter. The important thing is that she is satisfied."
"Hmm... True." Gaia stopped looking at Victor and looked in the direction of her daughters, checking that they were okay, then looking at Nyx.
"Any update on the Hindu pantheon?"
"Same old story," Nyx said. "The report has already been passed to my husband, and we are waiting for him to act now." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Hmm..." Looking at Victor again, Gaia saw that the conversation was over, and Poseidon turned into pure energy in Victor's hand.
"...Thanks for the talk, huh?" She spoke after hearing what Victor said. "Darling is feeling sentimental? Why worry about the thoughts of an inferior?"
"Take your arrogance down a notch, Gaia." Nyx snorted. "Or you need to be constantly reminded that if it weren't for Aphrodite and Darling wanting someone to take care of the planet's nature, you would still be one of those inferiors."
Gaia's beautiful face contorted, but she remained silent. After all, what Nyx said was not wrong. Her beginning was the worst possible since she was Victor's 'enemy' in the beginning, but despite that, most of the wives he had now also started as his enemy at some point.
"... This... Impossible, he has already developed divinity to this point?" Amaterasu, who had been silent, commented in disbelief, her golden draconic eyes staring at Victor with pure shock on her face. When she gave him the fragment of her father's divinity, she did not expect that he would have developed this power to such heights.
Unlike the other times where he was using 'BEGIN' and his qualities as a Progenitor to start something, with rare exceptions of him using a bit of the divinity of Creation, this time was different. He was only using the divinity of Creation as the primary resource and the divinity of Begin as just an extra boost.
"Hmm?" Gaia and Nyx looked at Victor again, and just like Amaterasu, they opened their eyes wide in shock.
"Nyx..."
"Yeah?"
"When we create our pantheon, we need all the primordials, right?"
"Yeah..."
"Victor is doing something like this all by himself... It's like seeing the Heavenly Father again."
"... Yes." Nyx shook her head in disbelief and said, "As expected of Darling, I guess, he never ceases to amaze us."
...
The Heavenly Father, who was sitting in his comfortable chair in the seventh heaven, looked towards the horizon as he felt < Creation> being used.
Victor's authority in this concept began to grow at an alarming rate until it stopped just below him... Rather than growing, it's more accurate to say that his authority was suddenly 'upgraded'.
"... In all the thousands of years I've lived, I've never seen anyone progress so much in such a short amount of time... You're definitely an anomaly, Son-in-Law."
It is worth noting that no matter what deity it is, it usually takes thousands of years to progress to a new level. Take Kali, for example, her progress was the perfect example of 'common sense'.
But then someone who had not even been around for 1 million years has already reached such heights, an abnormality indeed.
"… A world of water, huh… So this is your first Creation. I wonder if existence will accept it."
…
Looking at the blue sphere in front of him, which was the size of a basketball, Victor smiled and then proclaimed.
"From the water, they were born, and with water, they brought both life and destruction."
His voice echoed through the void, everyone on his planet heard the voice of the creator: plants, seas, mountains, clouds, the core of the planet, his wives, his servants, all of them without exception heard his voice… Not only them, but the system heard it, too.
Suddenly, a flash of light was seen that left everyone's vision blind for a moment, and the next moment, they found themselves in a world made entirely of water.
A completely new dimension separate from the planet, but which was also part of Victor's immense soul.
All the inhabitants of the planet were here, except for those who were in the nightmare tower and those who were in the 'dream' created by Victor.
They were no longer in Victor's personal dimension but somewhere else. They were brought there because they were the 'goddesses' of Victor's pantheon.
Natashia, who was with the girls, floated towards Victor but stopped when a white light appeared next to him.
Soon, a golden-haired man appeared.
"Brother..." Jeanne smiled slightly.
The Universal Tree looked at Jeanne, smiled slightly, and then looked toward Victor, specifically at the world around him.
Natashia looked at Jeanne and, feeling her sister's gaze, Jeanne just shook her head in denial. The message was clear, and she did not interfere.
They knew each other well enough to be able to communicate with intent alone, so Jeanne positioned herself in front of the girls. She was prepared to act at any moment, and seeing Jeanne's intent, the other sisters followed her example.
"Immense leviathans that dwell in the depths..." Victor's wings expanded even more and began to glow with power: "Proud beings, they possess the pride of a dragon, but they are not dragons. Born from the essence of the Progenitor of the blood dragons, they carry his will."
The kingdom expanded even more, and Victor's immense energy began to visibly fall, Roxanne and Amara began to work like never before to meet Victor's needs.
Suddenly, the world flashed again. Everyone closed their eyes, and when they opened them again, they were standing on something. Using their divine senses, they spread out their POV and saw that it was on the head of Victor's dragon form.
Bandup, Bandup!
As the dragon's heart pulsed, its body glowed with power, and Victor's humanoid form that was still standing near the Primordial responsible for life, for a moment, became a being completely made of energy.
Three similar beings appeared beside Victor, and they simultaneously looked at him with an irritated look as if they were saying, 'You again? You don't rest? How about spending 1 million… Wrong, 1 trillion years in peace?'
They wanted to say those words, but with just one look from the Primordial of life, they fell silent.
"Tsk." Clicking their tongues in a very mundane manner, they looked at the same spot Victor was looking at.
Victor opened his mouth, and when he spoke... No one understood anything. It was an incomprehensible language that only Jeanne and the Primordials themselves understood, but even if everyone else didn't understand, they could feel his meaning.
"Let There Be Life."
At that moment, time stopped for everyone except the Primordials. Unlike before, when there were remnants of time for beings to move, such things did not exist here. With the authority of the Primordials, time simply did not exist here. This was the power of the administrators of existence, and soon, the voice of the system echoed in the stopped time.
"I accept." The Primordial of Life gave permission.
"... I accept." The Primordial of Soul gave reluctant permission.
With the permission of the administrators responsible for life and the continuation of life in the universe, the system spoke:
Leviathans, beings created by <Chaos>, creatures inhabiting an aquatic dimension located <???> Have been allowed to exist. Should the souls of these creatures be placed in the cycle of reincarnation?]
"No." The primordial of life has spoken.
The judges of the abyss looked at their fellow worker in confusion. They thought for a moment and finally understood why they didn't give permission... It was to lessen their work! With the souls of these beings that have no conscience bound to their creator, in the event of a possible death, or lack of energy, these beings will die along with their creator.
"No!" The judges of the abyss happily spoke.
[Accepted. Leviathans bound to the existence of <Chaos>... Error, impossible to bind, lack of necessary concept... creating concepts... The concept <He who creates monsters> was created to fulfill the needs...
The concept <He who creates monsters> was successfully bound to the greater concept <BEGIN> as its sub-concept. Needs for beings other than <Chaos> to gain this divinity are listed below:
1: The individual must have the Greater Concept of <BEGIN>.
2: The individual must have the concept of < Creation>
3: The individual must be a Progenitor of the Dragon race of sector XXXXX.
'Other than Victor, it is impossible for anyone to meet such requirements.' The Universal Tree thought, after all, supporting the weight of hundreds of creatures on one's own is something that only Primordials can do. In terms of energy, Victor was definitely approaching a Primordial.
4: The individual must have within themselves immense energy capable of sustaining the cycle of reincarnation itself and the life of creatures.]
'Other than Victor, it is impossible for anyone to meet such requirements.' The Universal Tree thought, after all, supporting the weight of hundreds of creatures on one's own is something that only Primordials can do. In terms of energy, Victor was definitely approaching a Primordial.
"What are you doing?" The Universal Tree asked when he saw his co-worker approach Victor, specifically when he saw the 'Hand', one of the three judges of the abyss.
"I just wanted to give him something for giving me so much trouble." The 'Hand' said. He was feeling petty, a very deadly emotion for someone like him, but such emotions are understandable due to the constant work that this abnormality gave them.
At that moment, he stopped in front of Victor.
"Your abnormality from the beginning is what brought us to this sector. You know you're not the only one, right? We still have to deal with those annoying gods from the upper world, but somehow, you're worse than them. Why do you have to be so abnormal?"
When the abyss judges' hand went to touch Victor's face, Victor's draconic eyes moved, and for a millisecond, his violet eyes turned into pure grotesque darkness.
"Hiii!" He jumped back in genuine fear and pointed at Victor: "He can move! He has some weird energy with him!"
Thinking furiously, he tried to remember where he felt a similar energy.
"Stop acting like a retard, there's no way he can move here. Only administrators can move here." Not even his sister could move here, even if she was older than him. 'Well, maybe with her old power…'
He looked at his sister and saw that her eyes were moving and shining with an intention that was not good for the judges of the abyss… 'Or maybe not… As expected of her.' He laughed to himself proudly.
He immediately realized that because she was a dragon, she was recovering her old power, so it was no surprise that she was conscious.
"You two control him, do not unnecessarily antagonize living beings… Especially a group that my sister is in… You know it would not end well."
The 'Eye' and the 'Mouth' pulled their 'Hand' back, and soon they were next to each other in sync. The moment they synchronized again, they felt and saw what the 'Hand' felt.
After a few seconds of thinking: "… He is too dangerous, we need to eliminate him." They decided it was best to get to the root of the problem right away. A being that can move into a territory only for administrators just says that it is approaching the same level as a primordial. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem because the existence of this being would be connected to existence in one way or another, and they could deal with it, but something felt off.
