Chapter 12: The Nine Power Levels of Beyonders

Gabriel's mind swirled with newfound knowledge of the power levels of Beyonders. "So, there are nine power levels?" he asked, seeking clarification.

Seraphim'll nodded, affirming Gabriel's understanding. "Indeed, the power levels of Beyonders are divided into nine distinct tiers, each representing a significant leap in strength and mastery over one's Aspect. Level One denotes the initial stage, where Beyonders are just beginning to explore and harness their powers."

"Within each power level, there are further divisions," Seraphim'll continued. "These divisions are known as transformations, and they signify significant advancements in a Beyonder's abilities and potential. As a Beyonder progresses through the transformations within a level, their powers become exponentially enhanced."

Gabriel's curiosity ignited as he absorbed the information. "Can you explain each power level and their transformations to me?"

Gabriel's mind absorbed the knowledge of the power levels of Beyonders, and his excitement grew as he contemplated the extraordinary potential that lay ahead. He marveled at the notion that there were nine distinct power levels, each representing a significant leap in strength and understanding.

"At level one, a Beyonder begins their journey," Seraphim'll explained. "It is the initial stage where they awaken their aspect and start to comprehend its fundamental principles. At this level, their physical body undergoes remarkable transformations, adapting to the energy of their aspect."

Gabriel could sense the immense power coursing through his veins, his body resonating with newfound strength. The idea of transcending ordinary human limitations fascinated him.

"Upon reaching level two, a Beyonder enters a whole new realm of power," Seraphim'll continued. "At this stage, they become a stellar lifeform, no longer bound by the constraints of their previous existence. They gain the ability to survive solely on the energy of their aspect, rendering food and air unnecessary. Their bodies become resilient enough to withstand the harsh conditions of outer space."

Gabriel's imagination soared as he envisioned himself venturing into the vast expanse of the universe, liberated from the constraints of his former human existence.

"level three awaits, a pivotal stage where they form their own domain. Inside their domain, they become akin to gods, wielding immense power and authority."

"Within their domain, Beyonders command the fabric of reality itself," Seraphim'll continued. "They shape and mold the world according to their will, their aspect serving as the foundation for the creation and manipulation of matter, energy, and even life itself. It is a domain where their powers reach unprecedented heights, and they transcend the limitations of mortal existence."

"And what lies beyond level three?" Gabriel inquired, eager to grasp the unfathomable heights that awaited him.

Seraphim'll's expression turned solemn. "I must confess, I a unaware of what lies beyond level three. It is a realm untouched by my knowledge. They exist as legends, whispered tales passed down through the ages. They transcend the boundaries of ordinary Beyonders and wield authority over aspects on a cosmic scale."

Gabriel contemplated the vastness of the universe, pondering the existence of these legendary beings. He knew that his journey as a Beyonder was not only about personal growth but also about uncovering the secrets of the cosmos.

"And then there are the sovereigns," Seraphim'll's voice carried a tone of reverence. "These beings stand above level nine, representing the pinnacle of power. They have existed since the dawn of creation, commanding forces beyond mortal comprehension. It is believed that their level of power is unattainable through conventional means, shrouded in mystery and awe."

As Gabriel absorbed the knowledge of the sovereigns, his mind swirled with curiosity and intrigue. He couldn't help but wonder about these enigmatic beings that stood above the nine power levels of Beyonders.

Seraphim'll continued, his voice filled with a mix of reverence and mystery. "Originally, there were only six sovereigns, ancient beings that have existed since the dawn of creation."

"However," Seraphim'll continued, "as the eons passed and the cycles of chaos unfolded, more sovereigns emerged. Over time, their numbers grew, and now there are a total of ten sovereigns throughout the vast cosmos."

"Touch the cube again, try feeling the cube with your senses and form a connection with your aspect cube, to get your first authority and officially step into the first transformation of a level one Beyonder," Seraphim'll instructed Gabriel.

The transparent figure of Gabriel closed his eyes and moved his hand closer to the cube, his fingertips grazing its surface. He focused his concentration, trying to attune his senses to the enigmatic energy within the cube. Time seemed to slow as he immersed himself in this pivotal moment.

"Clear your mind, Gabriel," Seraphim'll advised. "Let the energy of your aspect flow through you. Allow it to guide you."

Following Seraphim'll's guidance, Gabriel let go of all distractions and honed in on the cube's energy. He could sense its power resonating within him, waiting to be harnessed. A sense of anticipation surged through his being as he prepared himself for the awakening of his first authority.

For a moment, nothing happened. Gabriel's mind was filled with a mixture of hope and doubt. But then, a subtle shift occurred within his inner realm. The transparent figure of Gabriel began to emit a soft, silver-colored glow, gradually intensifying in brilliance. The ethereal light enveloped him, forming a radiant aura.

As the luminous energy converged around Gabriel's eyes, they started to emit an intense silver glow. The room was bathed in the celestial radiance emanating from his being. It was as if his very essence was being infused with the essence of his aspect, merging into a single entity.

A surge of determination coursed through Gabriel's veins. He focused his thoughts, allowing his connection with the cube to solidify. With a resolute touch, he established a profound bond with his aspect cube.

The luminosity emanating from Gabriel's figure intensified further, as if a reservoir of energy had been unleashed. The silver glow enveloped his entire body, igniting his very essence with newfound power.

Suddenly, two beams of brilliant silver light shot forth from Gabriel's eyes, cutting through the air with unmatched force. The intensity of the beams was awe-inspiring, and they pierced through the ceiling, creating a hole that revealed the vast expanse of the sky above.

The room filled with gasps and exclamations as those present bore witness to the astounding display of Gabriel's authority. The scientists were awestruck, realizing they were witnessing an event of unparalleled significance.

Inside Gabriel's mind, his eyes had returned to their normal appearance, or so it seemed at first glance. But upon closer inspection, something extraordinary was revealed. His irises, once a plain brown, now held a mesmerizing transformation. Two rings encircled his pupils, each possessing a distinct color and radiance.

The outer ring was a brilliant silver, shimmering with a celestial hue symbolizing his unknown aspect.

The inner ring, in stark contrast, glowed with a deep crimson hue, symbolizing the consuming power of his devouring aspect. Together, they intertwined in perfect harmony, separated by a slender black slit that lent an air of mystique to his gaze.

These eyes held an otherworldly beauty, captivating all who beheld them. They were windows to the vast potential and hidden depths that lay within Gabriel. However, the true extent of their capabilities remained veiled, waiting to be unraveled through experience and exploration.

Gabriel marveled at his transformed eyes, realizing that they were not just a physical alteration but a reflection of his newfound identity as a Beyonder. It was a visual manifestation of the fusion of his aspects

Gabriel also noticed a flowing, amorphous mass of shimmering black and crimson tendrils, constantly undulating with a graceful fluidity, as if they were sentient, dancing around his aspect cube. A second authority.

As Gabriel was about to probe it, seraphim'll appeared close to him.

"Congratulations, human. It would seem like you have an eye authority, and whatever that is," he said, pointing at the strange tendrils. "Since your aspect is new, your journey will be the most difficult, as there are no records of the path you'll have to follow. So, you'll have to create a new path for yourself."

Seraphim'll's words resonated with a profound sense of urgency, his voice laden with unspoken sorrow. "It seems like my time is nearing its end, and my soul is on the verge of dissipating. But before I depart, there is one solemn request I must make of you."

Gabriel, sensing the weight of the moment, locked eyes with seraphim'll, a mixture of gratitude and determination shining in his gaze. "Please, tell me. What is it that you ask of me?"

A somber smile tugged at the corners of seraphim'll's lips. "Gabriel, promise me this: When you have grown strong enough, when the power of your aspects has fully bloomed, I implore you to avenge my fallen race. Destroy the Vor'thaks, the merciless beings responsible for our annihilation."

Deep within Gabriel's core, a resolute fire burned. The man before him had forever changed his destiny, introducing him to the vast wonders of the universe, even amidst the trials he had faced. Now, armed with newfound power and purpose, it was only natural for Gabriel to offer his unwavering commitment in return.

"I promise you, seraphim'll," Gabriel declared, his voice firm and unwavering. "If the day comes when I have become formidable, when I have honed my abilities to their fullest potential, I will seek out and eradicate the Vor'thak race, regardless of the challenges that lie ahead. Though I may not know their appearance now, rest assured that their presence will not go unnoticed."

A faint chuckle escaped seraphim'll's lips, carrying a bittersweet tinge. "Indeed, Gabriel. In due time, you shall become intimately acquainted with the Vor'thaks, their visage imprinted upon your memory. But heed my words, young Beyonder. The world beyond your home planet is fraught with peril and treachery. Traverse its depths with caution, for the weak find no solace within its unforgiving embrace."

As seraphim'll's form flickered, resembling a waning candle on the verge of extinguishment, Gabriel absorbed his final words, etching them deep into his consciousness. With a nod of understanding, he bid farewell to the mentor who had shaped his destiny, ready to embrace the arduous path that lay before him.
