Chapter 192 The Truth Of The Universe
Chapter 192 The Truth Of The Universe
A long, long time ago, during the times where Gods roamed about freely in the Universe. The situation was quite relaxed in comparison to what it was now. Each God had their own place to live, a planet, sometimes an entire galaxy.
But then beings started taking birth in the universes that they ruled. Strange beings that were really… weak. They lived faster than the Gods; they reproduced, which Gods couldn't do, then they die as their time passes.
It wasn't a one place phenomenon, but it was more or less taking place in the entire multiverse. This really intrigued all Gods as they wondered what could have happened that triggered this phenomenon.
Some Gods simply wiped all those beings which were in their universe, others amused by them decided to watch over them. Some presented themselves in front of them, making them worship the God.
Eons passed, and things changed before the Gods could realize anything. The Gods, who used to live on their own, without any consideration of what the others were doing, now started creating factions. Influenced by the very worlds that they were watching, their mannerism changed.
They grew ambitions; they looked forward to conquering the other places which were occupied by the other Gods. They grew ambitious and greedy, wanting to become stronger than they already were. And thus… the war between the Gods started slowly but surely.
The Gods which were thought to be immortal started dying like ants within the war. They forgot that the number of Gods in total was only about a couple of hundred billions or so and if they got wiped out, they won't be able to reproduce and recreate their pure beings again.
But that wasn't the only thing that occurred during that time, many beings which the God thought to be weaker, grew stronger as time passed, soon rivaling the powers of the Gods themselves.
It was only until later revealed that the power those weaker beings were gaining, was nothing but the remnant power of the Gods which had died. And once this fact was revealed to the universes, another war started other than the already ongoing IntraGods War. One that involved the lower beings and the higher beings.
The beings that were powerful enough to rival Gods, were labeled as Lower Gods while those who were Gods from the beginning were called True Gods, or Higher Gods.
The war kept ongoing, until only 12 Gods were left in the end. The last of the 12 Gods. But before they could be killed, something happened. Those Gods gained the power, more than just a fraction of the power of the previous True Gods, becoming the Gods of their own league.
This, in turn, changed the entire game of how things were playing out. Fully knowing what the lower beings were capable of, the Gods devised a plan, to change the entire way the things functioned.
While they controlled the lower beings, fully knowing the potential, rather than killing them, they decided to manipulate those beings to fight among themselves. This shifted the hierarchy with these Gods being on the top watching everything below them.
They devised a game that includes the champions of all the worlds, to be transported into a single planet, Visca, where they would fight among themselves, and then in the end reach Godhood in front of them. This way, they can monitor any or all threats that were thrown at them.
But like always, there was bound to be an anomaly, Aether Rodriguez, a human beyond evolution, someone who made even the last remaining Gods tremble, came in front of them, made them bow to him before choosing to live peacefully with whatever people were remaining with him.
But rather than changing everything, he made a few changes that made things far more smoother for the Gods, while also making things easier for the beings that were transported against their will. His beyond genius capabilities made things much more smoother.
Alas, good things don't last long enough, as Aether was but a human. He rejected Godhood and immortality and decided to have a peaceful death. And his death triggered the next event that even those from beyond couldn't comprehend.
A certain God, whose name shouldn't be taken, started rising from the shadows. That God, he was one of the Lower Gods, someone who had ascended from a normal being.
The God of Undead.
The God of Undead rose in power, slowly using his powers to take control of the entire world, and then the entire universe. The Gods were strong against him, but he had an army in front that included many, many champions of the Gods, which were as strong as the strongest Lower Gods themselves.
Another war erupted, and the Undead God emerged victorious, soon taking in even the remaining Higher Gods under his undead army, controlling them with his special power which he was blessed with by the Universe.
But not all Gods were killed, more than half of the Lower Gods, and the Champions of the Gods, escaped from his clutches. Fearful as he was, he decided to hunt those Gods as well. And thus his journey of conquering the entire multiverse began.
He conquered one army after another, gaining more power as he killed one race after another, or making them his own, relentlessly searching for the other Gods.
One of the ways to conquer the planet was to open a portal of a similar planet to the other and let the Undead Zombies roam free on the planet, thus spreading the infection, converting them into undead as well.
While there was also the addition of an energy that touched the species of those planets, that got mixed with their soul energy, making them unconditional slaves of the power which they feasted upon.
This was the way that zombie energy was spread on this planet where I was. This is how the zombies started existing here. And the one who was responsible for opening the first few portals was Angela herself. She was ordered by her superior to do it on this random planet far away from the base of the God of Undead.
And here I was looking at her with a baffled expression as I heard all that information from Angela's mouth. I tried to deny it but I had used [Eyes of the Time Keeper] many times but still failed to find any time she was lying to me.
She looked at me as if she were ready to give her life right now. Seems like this was all that she could tell me… though it was already more than enough…. This was way more than enough.
"Well. I don't have anything more I can tell. So… Can you please give me an easy death?" she spoke in a dejected tone as she looked at me.
And I just observed her as I spoke,"at least let me process all the information that you gave me."
It took a few more minutes as I went through the entire thing before I sighed and wondered… How should I deal with this girl now?
[Author's Note: Gave you a bigger picture of things, I guess? Anyway, the direction of the story will be like this for a few more chapters -> Michael finding his friends and family -> A few more secrets -> To the greater plot.
A few many things will take place here and there, so expect a bit of a bumpy ride. Happy reading.
