Being a Senior God in a young World

I shift my gaze through the endless darkness around me.

There was nothing to see.

But I continued gazing into these unknown depths without thinking of anything.

This continued for a long time till even I got bored of this and decided to do something else.

Of course, like most of the time when I finally decided to do something another thing happens.

But in this case, it was a little bit special.

I look at the glowing ball that from my observations seemed to explode.

This observation was proven correct as the ball bursts into an unknown amount of pieces.

I Continued to stare at the little pieces that got thrown away from the explosion of the glowing ball and realize that every piece contains an immense amount of information's.

This confuses me.

How can these little pieces even contain information's and why am I able to read them?

Driven by curiosity I reach out with my hand and grab one of the bigger pieces.

As soon as I touch the piece, I feel pain.

It has been a while since I felt that, but I also never missed it.

The pain was strong but short and didn't give me enough time to throw the piece away before it disappeared.

I look at the piece closer but couldn't figure out what it is.

After inspecting it for a while I lost interest and just observe the expanding explosion.

Suddenly a thought appeared in my head and this thought changed the way I looked at this whole scene.

{Big Bang}

What if I just witnessed the beginning of the universe?

I shift my gaze down onto the little piece in my hand.

Just how big am I?

Using this question as motivation I start to inspect my body with the now present light.

I'm a humanoid black twisting shadow.

Well that is surprising.

Amused with my new look I begin to move around and try to change my shape.

Moving around didn't pose any trouble but changing shape was very hard but in the end, I succeed and took on the form of a snake.

I continue to play around for a while with my new shapeshifting ability till I got the idea of changing my size.

From my previous experience of playing around I got really good at this, so I succeeded in my second try.

With my new size I again inspect the pieces that fly around.

They are still not very interesting but the information inside them seem to become clearer.

Now that I think about it why did I feel pain from touching that other piece?

After thinking for a while, I conclude that it has something to do with the information inside the piece.

I move back to the piece which I held before and confirm that the information inside it was gone.

So I began to sort through my mind to fiend these missing information's.

With great effort I finally manage to fiend the ball of information between mountains of useless ramblings and complains.

I slowly begin to look through the information and got immediately fascinated by it.

The information is about something called Law.

There are many different types of laws.

The one I got information's about is the Law of Darkness and it is also the reason why my body has the appearance of a black twisting shadow.

From the information I learn that one can control these Laws through understanding them and manipulating one's mental energy to bend them.

Once you have a certain amount of understanding you gain the authority of the respective law.

There are also different levels of authority, from Novice to Advanced and lastly Master.

But I also got warned that a being can maximal achieve three authorities on the master level and four on the Advanced.

To the novice level are no limits but once you gain more than the previous named amount of authorities you will no longer be the one who has authority over the laws, instead the laws gain authority over you and will eliminate you.

I engrave this warning into my mind just to make sure I won't forget it.

Finished with going through the ball of information I gained a lot out of it and change my focus to the place where the authorities are displayed.

Once there I see a black mass that is twisting and turning around itself all the while giving of a formless pressure.

I observe the thing for a while and try to applicate the new knowledge I gained from the ball.

After a while I conclude that I already gained the master level authority of the law of darkness.

This must be because I touched a piece that comes straight from the big bang and contained a high concentration of the law of darkness.
