567 A Price Too Costly To Pay!!!
A Being so huge, so tall, so magnificent that he had ever laid his eyes on. His shapes, seemingly humanoid, yet every inch of his 'skin' pulsed with the breath of a thousand galaxies; his three eyes, the size of entire cosmos.
And through his body, Zeras witnessed the birth and destruction of galaxies, as stars were formed and stars were destroyed, all within his embody.
He was like... he was like an embodiment of it all.
"So Tell Me, Young One, How Wonderful Will I Be If One Day We Could All Become The Embodiment of All?" The voice, like the most gentle of breeze, rang out once more as Zeras was slowly lifted up into the sky by a magnificent aura, yet there was not the slightest struggle.
There was not the slightest will to go against or fight the aura. It was like the aura of the most gentle mother, yet at the same time, that of the most fiery of all kings!
An Aura that cannot be disobeyed.
Slowly, he came to stand before those three pupils, catching a slight vision of the destruction and birth of new stars.
"It will be the most beautiful thing that has ever existed. The most purest form that we could ever undertake..." Zeras mused out dazedly, as an incredibly big smile appeared on the being's face. A smile of affection, and care, a smile of ease.
"They Have Always Looked In Horror At What I have Become... All Of Them. But All I Did Was Become What They Say Would Be A Good Wish..."
"You really are Awe-inspiring, but also Fear-inducing..." Zeras replied as he found the aura pushing him away gently, a sign of his time of exit being ready.
"I Choose you..." Zeras suddenly said before he could completely exit the realm, as the tugging force on him halted.
"You Wished To Be Cursed In meditation For Countless Eons, Stuck In A Broken Paradox For Eternity? You Wish To Be Acast and Horrifically Feared, Trust Becoming Nothing But A Broken Promise? You Wish To Stay On The Apex Of Power For All Of Eternity, With No Rival Ever Existing?" The Entity asked, the destruction and rebirth in his eyes quickening.
"Yes, yes, I do..." Zeras said as he floated forward before those pupils.
"But Why?" It asked...
"For It Will Be The Most Wonderful Thing Of All, If We Could Become The Embodiment Of All..." Zeras replied as silence reigned over the area.
Astral blue eyes, with sprinkles of multicolored stars, gazing at eyes following the true destruction and rebirth of the cosmos.
"Even With Such Grave Consequences, You Want To Be Me!?" He asked as Zeras gave a nod.
"Yes. It'll be worth it!"
"Very Well Then. I'll Turn You Into An Embodiment Of The All. You'll Be The Second That Would Exist In Eternity. But The Consequences, there will be A Grave Price To Offer In Return..."
"Tell Me The Price..." Zeras said, willing to hear the stakes of power. There was never anything in this brutal world that was ever for free. He expected not an exception of the power before him.
"That Which You Most Value In The World. All Your Strength! All Your Genes!! All Your Power!!!" The voice stated as Zeras paused rigged into the empty void, eyes flashing in shock and horror at such a bold request.
"Very Well, You Can Leave Now..." The Voice said and in the next second, he found the entire world darkening and in the next second, he found himself sitting before the three Constellations.
"All My Genes! I Am Nothing Without My Genes! How Would I Achieve My Goal Without Them! How Would I Bear The Crushing Weight Of The Universe Without Their Support. How Can I Lose All My Power For A Source Of Power!?" Zeras asked in fiery anger, and irritation, as he sat in the empty void of space, murderous eye staring at the Astral Blue Constellation.
But it kept releasing its gentle motes of blue lights, unbothered by his state of being, and once more silence reigned for hours as Zeras sat in silence looking at the three Aura Constellations.
One was a burning light that could erase the darkest of sins, one was a demonic aura that could kill without wavering at all.
They both were free, with no consequences. But the third one was an embodiment of the Cosmos itself.
A Power more than beyond the initial two, and yet with a weight far too much to bear, a price far too much to pay.
There was no system to help him decide which choice to make. This was his choice and sorely his choice.
"I Can't Lose My Genes. That's What Makes Me So Special. I Can't Lose My Genes. That's My Only Backbone..." The words were muttered by more than a million times by Zeras as time passed as quick and as gentle as a drifting hair, and slowly the white gas that he was made off, slowly dispersed, as the sprinkles of multicolored lights in them slowly dimmed.
'My Soul Is Dying, I Need To Make A Choice...' Zeras muttered with a listless tone as he rose up from his sitting position, and with a heart that had resigned itself to faith, Zeras took a single step forward, appearing before the Astral Blue Constellation, and he disappeared into it a moment later.
"So You Really Came Back... Just like I thought." The Being said, signing as he looked at Zeras whose soul waned in and out of existence.
"So You Wish To Give All Your Source Of Power. All Of Your Genes, Equipped With A Thousand Different Abilities, What Makes You The Talented Anomaly That You Are, all for an unknown source of Power?" The Entity asked as Zeras raised his hollow eyes to him.
"I Am Willing..." He replied unflichingly...
"But Why pay such a heavy price?"
"Because... It Will Be The Most Wonderful Thing In The World If I Can Even Just Witness, A Figment Of The Possibility, If I Becoming One With The All!!!"
