Chapter 114: Symphony of destruction 3
Chapter 114: Symphony of destruction 3
Time had lost his meaning for him, thousands of year turned into millions, militans became billions, the same process went over and over again, the total time that he awaited for the right host had surpassed more three billion years.
Every soul in the universe had to pass through death’s door at one point in their lifetime; the rule was set from the beginning: everything had to die at one point. The only thing that remained out of him in there was a chain of thought of a reserve of magic that he couldn’t use yet.
He watched as millions passed through the door each minute; even those who were counted as gods among their people finally fell to the hands of the last darkness in their path, but he was different! His ideas didn’t let him die; the world was vast, as vast as one could imagine, but the biggest cage that held someone within the shackles of reality was time.
In his lifetime, he had tried everything to oppose death, sacrificing planets to devils and angels, turning galaxies into test subjects to make the smallest progress in his problem, and nothing could work; only the number of his enemies increased.
In this world, time didn’d made devils and angels age, but their actions were stricted by their faction, it went against his desire to explore the world freely, the only creatures that were close to what he wanted were firstborns, but even them didn’t answer his calls.
When his time came, he had already made enough preparations to sustain his mind in the door of death; the only thing that remained was to wait for the right moment.
Between billions of souls that passed through the door, very few returned; some were monsters, apexes in hunting, and some were intelligent species specialized in colonizing the cosmos.
The problem was one thing: as a parasite, he couldn’t do much, so his host had to be weak, very weak... Below level 20 or so so that it couldn’t threaten his existence and plan.
So he waited, the chances were slim, but he never lost his edge, not even for a second in all those years, his mind analysis any soul that went against in front of him, and after a all those years, his endeavors finally reached the conclusion he wanted.
A human. Humans were a new race on a small planet; the highest level that he had seen was barely 30! Using the short time he had, he invaded the host’s body and mind; suddenly something stood out about the host: the reason he reached death’s door and returned was because of time travel.
The boy had too much ambition for his race and powers, he observed as the host used every trick and knowledge to gain more powers and attention, while he mocked the host’s lifestyle. Lust and such worldly affairs could only slow one’s progress down.
He needed time either, for the right time to set up his whole plan, the time that Pohn planet hided from the eyes of other draw closer and closer, as his host became aware of his existence, however at this point in time no one could hurt his his perfect plan.
Yet his underestimation of humans came back to hurt him; at first he had to begin the festival sooner than he intended, causing his old enemies to find its location, and now with Ray showing its exact location to the whole of hell and heaven, he had to sacrifice many resources plus the crystals he had put as the reward of the festival from his own inventory.
The losses were massive but he had succeeded anyway, his host’s lifeless body was teleported to his planet, everything in the planet followed his command, even after so long it knew him, as a part of him the planet gone through many changes yet at its very core, the parasite felt his old body and magic in it.
Before he had no way but to fade away; his body and magic had reached new heights of magic of his era, with his level being near 100. Only noble devils had a chance against him, yet if he were going to be reborn, he would only have a fraction of his powers, and there was no way to sustain his body for so long.
The solution came out of nowhere as he watched planets in a abandoned galaxy, if a planet was added to the system, no one could know but fiding it was so simple, so he had to turn his powers in a place that no mortals didn’t have the guts to get near.
The place’s name was Maze of Souls, an infinite dimension in the center of a black hole that no one went there to explore; no one had returned to tell the story of it.
On the corpse, his roots ran deeper into its flesh, taking every part of it that was useful to his new body. From its chest a golden rose grew as its roots drained every bit of meat and bone from beneath it.
Its golden petals flourished one by one, the flow of energy didn’t stop for a second giving his new birth the power of blood angel’s body, he needed it for the first minutes of his life. As all the petals opened, a human figure the size of a baby slept inside of it. Opening its size, his golden eyes could finally see again.
The baby’s size changed rapidly as it passed the stages of his life in an instant, in less than a minute a man stood above the dead body, his golden hair fell to the ground, and his bread could reach his knees, some lengs even said the gold was named after the color of eyes. his laugh penetrated the silent sky, once more after three billion years he had won! He was alive.
"The universe shall know the symphony of destruction once more..."
