Chapter 1051 G.o.d of s.p.a.ce
Kahn floated in the unfathomable and endless expanse of s.p.a.ce, surrounded by billions of stars, a transcendent being staring back at him. Despite the ent.i.ty being thousands of kilometers away, its presence was so overwhelming that it felt like he was gazing up at an immense mountain from afar.
There was no face, mouth, or eyes; just a specter-like visage that had floating galaxies and even black holes within. The entire apparition resembled that of a white-garbed humanoid being with a head made of a bluish hue.
Kahn"s body was covered in gooseb.u.mps, his mind a whirlwind of awe and bewilderment. The ethereal ent.i.ty, its silhouette comprised of millions of planets, radiated an aura of cosmic authority. "The time for us to meet has finally come, Hero of Darkness.
My name is..."
With a voice that resonated through the fabric of s.p.a.ce, it introduced itself…
"Raum, the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce."
Shock!
This sudden predicament now dis...o...b..bulated Kahn"s mind.
But before he could speak and introduce himself, the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce spoke.
"So you have the Dimensional Domain divine ability. No wonder you chose to study the s.p.a.ce Law.
It is different from the original timeline." said Raum.
Shatter!
Crumble!
As soon as the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce"s voice resounded, Kahn could see hundreds of planets surrounding him shattering and turning into dust.
As if this phenomenon wasn"t a spectacle to behold… Many of the Suns in the solar system within the G.o.d"s body ceased to exist while the black holes also shattered like gla.s.s.
This situation was completely mind-boggling to Kahn as his perception of the world was twisting.
To crumble hundreds of planets, snuff out dozens of suns, and shatter numerous black holes with just a few words... Kahn could simply not grasp the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce"s unimaginable power.
The sheer magnitude of Raum"s abilities was beyond Kahn"s comprehension. He struggled to wrap his mind around the fact that this being could manipulate the very fabric of the universe with a mere thought. The scope of Raum"s power made even the most powerful ent.i.ties Kahn had encountered seem like insignificant specks.
However, Kahn felt like the second part of G.o.d"s words had more twists to them.
"So you"re aware of it too, O" G.o.d of s.p.a.ce?" he asked in a respectful tone.
Somehow, the outer s.p.a.ce where sound couldn"t usually travel in the vacuum, his words still reached G.o.d without a problem.
"Time is a spectrum that affects s.p.a.ce differently.
It"s not as linear or continuous as it is from the world you came from." declared the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce in a benign tone.
"Here, it can vary from place to place, planet to planet and the realms that don"t follow the same laws of s.p.a.ce-time continuum.
There are many universes in the multiverse where one"s perception of time and s.p.a.ce differs based on their perspective, species, and intellect as sentient beings.
I have seen worlds where the laws of reality have bent to a bizarre degree.
I have seen beings and races that have transcended even the concept and laws of death itself.
And I myself, am a 6th Dimension being that you call a G.o.d." stated the G.o.d, sharing some of his vast experience with Kahn.
"Although I"m not like G.o.d of Time… you know why I can sense the shift in the timeline, right?" he queried in an inspecting tone.
Kahn on the other side, nodded as he responded…
"Because s.p.a.ce is a constant plane of existence, it remains independent of time," Kahn repeated, attempting to solidify the concept in his mind.
"Two realms with identical dimensions and occupied s.p.a.ce can exist simultaneously in different realities, each with its unique flow of time, yet the s.p.a.ce itself remains unaffected.
Sure, it can be alternative versions of each other like a standing mountain compared against a precipice… but the laws of s.p.a.ce still operate on their own." "Correct. It doesn"t make sense to many.
But you are not one of the many." replied the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce, almost sounding satisfied.
"No wonder you achieved the 4th Enlightenment so early. You have much free thinking and don"t completely rely on what you know, much less base an entire a.s.sumption on the temporary information on hand." he spoke.
With every word spoken by the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce, the destruction of planets and galaxies continued.
But Kahn couldn"t even dare to mention it or ask unnecessary questions that could irk the G.o.d.
"You could say I had a good teacher. Without him, I would still be so ignorant." said Kahn as he bowed with a thankful expression.
G.o.d of s.p.a.ce nodded and spoke.
"That is the reason why I asked my spokesperson to guide your way to the 4th Enlightenment. I can also see that you have also met the Elder Dragon Saalazaar." said Raum, revealing his knowledge of the changed fates in this timeline.
"I reckon he already told you how to achieve the 5th Enlightenment." he spoke sternly.
Kahn nodded and replied…
"That he did. However, the knowledge he parted with me remains elusive since I haven"t gained enough experience myself.
Even the world I created is only at the infant stage. I have a long way to go."
G.o.d of s.p.a.ce"s visage with no face, started waving his hands.
"I know the irony of me saying this but… we"re running out of time."
Kahn then asked seriously…
"Why did you arrange Miyamoto Sensei to teach me?
Shouldn"t your earnest generosity extend to the Hero of s.p.a.ce first?"
G.o.d of s.p.a.ce replied sternly…
"My level of control and the help I provide my chosen one has limitations ever since I sent him to Vantrea.
The same remains for all the other G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses. You know how this works." revealed the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce.
Kahn nodded in understanding.
Without a proper channel like a monastery, a spokesperson who serves directly under a G.o.d and has met prerequisite conditions… talking to the G.o.ds was impossible.
He was certain that even meeting the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce was happening because he must have met certain conditions that allowed this temporary get-together.
For that very reason, Kahn still hadn"t been able to contact the G.o.d of Darkness ever since he entered Vantrea. "To be honest… I do not care about this war against the Demon G.o.d at this point.
Even if the world is destroyed, I would be left unaffected and will continue to exist for hundreds of billions of years.
Maybe I"d finally die and get rest after living for such long.
But what I do care is how his actions will affect the rest of the existence." stated Raum, almost sounding melancholic.
Kahn then asked in a sarcastic tone…
"Why would the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce who seems to be an amalgamation of millions of planets and who knows how many universes, care about the fate of a single planet?
Is it because Vantrea is in a way, an existence like a Mother to you?"
To this question, the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce let out a sigh, destroying a few more universes within its body.
"In a sense, yes. But my intentions and actions aren"t dictated solely by that fact.
I could have let go and not interfered in this war but it"s not my existence at the stake… rather the entirety of the multiverse itself." he declared.
Kahn was left dumbfounded again after hearing those words.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"You know of the Element of Origin, right?" asked the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce.
Kahn nodded.
He had seen the Element of Origin that was the source of all mana, world energy, and different elements of reality that he saw in the Hall of Sentience during his training period under Romulus and Vildred.
It was the very thing that helped Kahn increase his s.p.a.ce Law infusion and even allowed him to create the First Form of his Dimensional Domain.
"You call this world as Vantrea. But we G.o.ds had another name for this world before any civilization or living beings came to be.
It is, was, and always will be the First and the Last. We called it…"
G.o.d of s.p.a.ce spoke in a somber tone as he revealed the forgotten name of Vantrea…
"Prime Ultimātus."
