Chapter 16: Fear and Awe

In a corner of the Apocryphal Domain, hidden behind a layer of dimensional folds…

{Congratulations, you have successfully entered the 13th level, [Lesser Deity]!}

{Congratulations, you're the first existence to become a true [Deity], he commends you!}

All the panels popping up in front of her made her struggle to gain focus.

"The 13th level…" Alexandria whispered under her breath, minuscule signs of exhaustion showing on her face.

It had been less than three centuries since she first inducted the [Other-Worlders] into Kepler, and her strength had grown drastically since then.

Just a few moments ago she had finally assimilated her four hundredth taboo law, and fully condensed multiple universes of faith energy, putting her just over the threshold for the next level.

As of now, she stood at the doorway to the 14th level and could sense the path forward.

"…" Sitting on her throne above the clouds, dwelling in a heavenly seat, indescribable demonic existences on each of her sides, she sighed.

The 11 high ranking Priests off to her side, with their dozens of wings, and fleshy bodies filled with eyes… They lowered themselves in awe, feeling the pure power pulsing through the Queen of Heaven.

"I have to manifest my bloodline… To store it within the cosmic database under the Bloodline Law." She deduced, completely understanding what she had to do to bypass the shackles of the 13th level.

"Manifest my bloodline?…" She smiled, "How about I go beyond." She slowly rose from

her chair, the divine seat crumbling and turning into 3 equally terrifying angels that took form as ethereal humanoids.

She parted the clouds under her and stepped through space, arriving in an desolate location.

Alexandria spoke, fully stepping into the small dimension.

She sucked in a deep breath of air, feeling the difference in time flow slowly eating away at her nearly infinite lifespan.

"If I deduce an invincible, heaven-defying bloodline, then I solidify it in the annals of reality." The smile crept back onto her face.

"Depending on how I evolve it, I could theoretically have eyes and ears in every single one of the infinite reality!" Her ambitions were insane.

Of course she was aware of the infinite realities, she was an existence capable of cresting her own laws!

But, to scheme against the wills of all creatures in existence?

Wasn't she biting more than she could chew?

Well, she surely didn't seem to think so.

"What bloodline could be even more heaven defying than my own?"

…

…

Alexandria governed over her experiment for millions of years under the dilated time. She grew organisms in certain critical environments, filled different types of Law essences and Magic energies.

Giving them such a strange and difficult environment to survive in, alongside throwing in artificial beasts to threaten their lives…

It was a game changer!

She worked her very hardest towards creating a species that was naturally powerful from birth.

It took many years of her life, and droves of her energy to reach a point where she was able to see a glimpse of the new, heaven-defying species.

"Success." She muttered, gazing down at the two meter tall creature that she hovered before.

It was a confusing existence. A unidentifiable creature that hovered between reality and fiction.

It seemed to buzz in and out of existence, vibrating at intense speeds on the quantum level.

"The Asier Lord." She muttered, all her teeth being shown and she smiled an eerie smile and the blank existence.

"An ever evolving king!" She exclaimed.

"Now, it's time to merge with it." Slowly, Alexandria pried at space, opening a portal to the soulless creatures origin.

In a seemingly slow instant, she ripped her very own soul out of her existence, quickly shoving it into the origin inside the Asier Lord.

Her consciousness faded for a moment, snd before she knew it, she had taken on a different form.

In her mind were blaring sirens, something deep inside her was telling her to eat the empty vessel in front of her.

Of course this was already apart of the plan, so why not listen?

Before she could even comprehend the panels screaming at her from the sides, her old vessel was devoured and perfectly assimilated, all the previous energy it held being absorbed, even its runic ecritures.

"Mmmmh." She groaned, experiencing a mix of pain and pleasure.

Though it was clearly different…

When an existences energies were absorbed by another, one could see the corporeal liquid be sucked into their chest, disappearing.

Yet, for Alexandria and her new body, it was as if she each and every single particle or her body was absorbing the energy, evenly spreading it out.

"The power is exhilarating!" Alexandria laughed devilishly.

Her dark vibrating visage soon became corporeal and stable. She turned into the same Alexandria from before, emanating an ice cold aura, and a 5 pronged blue crown floating above her head.

Her eyes flashed for a moment, as she finally focused on the screens appearing before you.

{Congratulations! Truly, congratulations! You are the first creature in all of existence to achieve something so incredible!}

{You have been gifted the title, [His Entertainment]!}

{You have gained the title, [Zerg Lord]!}

{You have gained the title, [Heaven-Defying Talent]!}

{You have opened the Unique Racial Skill-Tree, [Zerg Lord]!}

{You have opened the Unique Racial Skill-Tree, [Nomological Entity]!}

{You have opened the Unique Racial Skill-Tree, [Embodiment of Civilization]!}

{You have opened the Unique Racial Skill-Tree, [Existential Virus]!}

{You have opened the Unique Racial Skill-Tree, [Truth-Seeker]!}

{You have obtained the absolute skill, [Growing Talent]!}

{You're in danger! Make sure to mask your presence even further so the two Primordials

do not learn of your existence! It'd be a shame for you to go so soon…}

{You're incredible! You've truly defied the trend of reality! You've created a cultivation system thats incredibly powerful!}

{You've received the title, {All For One}!}

{He has tailor made a new system to display your characteristics!}

…

The screens went on, listing all of the laws that Alexandria had obtained.

Though now, she was staring at the brand new display before her.

Alexandria read over the panel, understanding it and her abilities very well.

She had successfully become a creature that walks separate from Fate, and the laws!

When reading someones fate, it read their Aspect, yet for Alexandria she did not have only one aspect.

She had trillions!

She completely turned herself into an amalgamation of quantum existences, giving her the ability to cultive each and every particle in her body, instead of just her body overall.

As of now, she had brought her body to the fifth level completely, and 10% of it had reached Law Assimilation.

60% of her body had cultivated a single Mind Ring, and the number was only increasing.

Though these weren't what made it strong, as of course this would only slow her rate of cultivation drastically.

What made it so strong, was that she was now a quantum existence!

She could entangle these particles with another, creating a perfect clone, then she could gift the clone a conscience, creating a living descendant of her bloodline.

This descendant would be in her full control, even if it didn't know, and it would become a conduit in which she could descend from, even if it was located in an entirely different reality.

What was even better was that, she could simply shed matter from her body, entangle them and give them consciences.

After regenerating she could just repeat the process!

And upon the death of these descendants, their matter would return to the universe instead of her, but it would still be under her control!!

Eventually, in the far future, she would be presence within even the particles of dust in the wind.

One day, all the matter that once belonged to the universe, would instead belong to her!

She would become truly omnipotent within the universe, being everywhere, hearing everything, and having no restriction to power as she would even be present within the laws of the universe themselves!

"…" An eerie smile was plastered on her face.

Another benefit of this bloodline was that even though each descendant was apart of her body, they still had their own minds!

That meant she would have access to trillions of brains. Trillions of sources of knowledges that would provide her with information, and could create new spells that would all return to her in the end since she was the core!

Beyond this, each descendant was gifted with the ability, or curse if you wish, to live within a higher dimensional time-frame.

Since they were evolved by the Forge of Ji, a place where time is such an abstract concept…

Alexandria's body is forever stuck in a faster time!

For her, a day is 1,000 years! That means that every single day, she is aging 1,000 years, and her perception of time is so quick that normal existences are even slower than the slowest slugs.

Of course she could slow her mind down, experiencing true time, though only if she wished.

"[Quantum Dissolution]." Alexandria said, lifting up a palm and watching as it rapidly disintegrated , turning into countless tiny particles invisible to the mortal eye.

Even though the particles had yet to be instilled with consciences, Alexandria was able to see, taste, hear, feel, and smell through them.

It was interesting to say the least…

The best part was that one would never know that these tiny invisible particles actually held stars within their Aspects!

"Hmm.." Alexandria, smirked.

"[Quantum Avoidance]." In an instant, the artificial sun rays within the Forge of Ji's isolated space started to seep through her body.

They landed on the stone ground behind her, and Alexandria ceased to be a malleable creature.

With each nanosecond, her particles would moving at vigorous speeds to avoid all contact with the matter around them.

"Perfect… Although only my Major Origin has retained the perks of the Rysier, this is definitely an improvement that puts me above all other existences within this reality." She said, her missing palm returning to her as space was pried open.

"To become a [Higher Being]."

…

…

…

"All-Father, did you feel that?" Sage asked the figure sitting next to her on the couch.

"No I am mistaken, it must have been a burst of energy from the Primordial Heart." She rose from her seat, conjuring a misty cloud of Fate.

"Why… Why is it blurred?" She murmured, scouring the entirety of the Apocryphal Domain.

Her eyes gazed at Agustus, Jack, and the Eldrids, elevating their realms, and researching ways to reopen the raptures….

They shifted, moving towards Julius, who had long departed from the Deadlands, and was now building his universal empire.

Only 29 years had passed for the Apocryphal domain, as time within the Infinite Expanse, and the Forge of Ji didn't align with it.

"Fate is changing drastically… Originally the Julius was supposed to battle the Eldrids 5 years ago. Then he was fated the fight them 30 years from now…" Her eyebrow raised.

"Yet now… They'll be encountering each other in just a few days?" She marveled.

"Is that so." Spawn responded, getting up from the chair as it dematerialized.

"You can't read it, can you?" He asked, locking eyes with Sage.

"Father… I cannot." Her head lowered, trying to deduce every reason possible as to why she couldn't.

"As expected, you have only reached the peak of the 13th level. On top of the fact the reason you cannot see through Fate is because it is being altered by an existence that has comprehended powerful Laws you have not."

Spawn explained.

"Even if you had stepped into the 14th realm like the other party, i'm not sure if you'd be able to

combat them with ease…" A hand rose up to Spawn's chin, a glint flashing in his empty eyes.

"But All-Father… I'm omnipotent within the Apocryphal Domain, I do not understand how I cannot perceive this… existence, even if they are of a higher realm. Even if they have comprehended Laws I have not, I have comprehension in every law there is, even Laws that are being created this very moment!" Sage's mind was drawing blanks.

"Only an existence that has the Authority of dozens of Laws beyond the scope of my comprehension could even come close to escaping my gaze."

"Correct."

Sage's usually close eyes, opened.

"But I have dipped my foot into every Law within this reality, and there is no location I cannot see…"

"Incorrect."

Her eyes widened.

"All-Father." A deep frown, accompanied with a confused expression appeared on her face.

"Look into my eyes." Spawn smiled, locking eyes with Sage.

In an instant, multiple images flashed within her mind.

She could see a seemingly normal region in space, lacking much intelligent life.

It was as ordinary as can be.

Yet, in the next second, she was able to see beyond the layers of reality.

Hovering between existence and nonexistence, was a vast universe.

Even with the eyes of the All-Father, she could only perceive the realm for no longer than a billionth of a nanosecond!

Within this realm, was a wide array of powerful laws she had never even laid her eyes upon.

But what made her jaw almost drop…

It was…

"What even is this?!" She exclaimed, confusion and fear completely overtaking her mind.

Spawn smiled, remembering his reaction when he read Fate long ago.

"My child, this is a being that had stepped outside of the limits i've set. She has deduced realms that have yet to come into existence. She has discovered a realm beyond Natural and Taboo laws!" Spawn enthusiastically explained.

"I have to say, she is probably my favorite creation to observe…" He finished, letting Sage organize her chaotic thoughts.

"A realm beyond the Natural Laws?.." Sage asked with a hint of fear and awe.

"Correct. Though she is not quite there yet, I like to call them [Quasi-Deified Laws]."
