I.. Am God?

Chapter 222 The Reset

Faced with doubts, Gaius only persevered. Now that the Chaotic Dark Matter was inside the energy, he proceeded to assist the cosmic energy against the fight through his will.

He molded the shape of the energy like clay, and slowly incorporated the Dark Matter into the energy while also pushing the former to back down and ruin itself to succumb to the cosmic energy.

Hours later, they saw Gaius' sweat trickling down his cheeks as the Chaotic Dark Matter's unconscious will started to resist and counterattack against the combined aggression of the cosmic energy and his will.

The Dark Matter slowly became visible from the outside, showing signs of overpowering the energy.

Not wanting the ruination of Matheon, the other deities also helped out, sending sliver of their wills towards the Dark Matter and combating and suppressing it. Paimon, as a Duke under him, also helped the same way in addition to slowing the reaction time of the Dark Matter against the attacks.

Talzesar, as someone who looked down on the new monarch, couldn't be bothered to assist and only looked at them, watching their struggle against the Dark Matter, sometimes sniggering when they were pushed back.

But, gradually through their combined efforts, the presence of the Dark Matter weakened, and at the end completely vanished. All of them sighed in relief, but Paimon, knowing that Talzesar and his company did nothing to help, glanced at them intently before returning his sight to the product of their efforts and Gaius' idea.

In front of them was a glossy and liquidised energy that has thousands of times the energy of the previous cosmic energy.

Knowing that such a ginormous amount of energy would only end up destroying the galaxy instead of improving it, Gaius came up with an idea. The wills of the deities had already left the energy. Using his will, he already had full control of it.

He separated the liquid energy into two parts. The first part was stored by Gaius back inside the Hexatrix, in fear that it suddenly explodes, or worse, implodes. The second part was the energy that he would use to develop the galaxy.

He sent that part above Matheon. He then turned and said to the beings of Matheon, "Bid a temporary goodbye to Matheon."

Of course, even before all these happened, they had already done so. Their families are already inside God's Land, so they deemed them safe in its care. They nodded to Gaius, to which Gaius proceeded.

Inside the energy, different images from the different parts of the galaxies showed and flickered, as if running through the pages of a book.

Slowly, Gaius willed the energy to spread out. Hours later, it had covered the top and the sides of the galaxy. Then, it happened.

A thin line of the energy that extended down to the center of the galaxy suddenly sparked. Through that spark, a black hole was created. As soon as that black hole came into existence, all that was encapsulated by the energy were pulled with that energy into the black hole in mere minutes. All that was left of the beautiful galaxy of Matheon was a black hole.

They could only stare at that black hole, with golden energy surrounding it. Months, years, decades passed, and nothing happened.

Talzesar didn't even want to waste a second with them and already had the desire to leave but he was restrained by Paimon's stern gaze.

"Are you sure it worked?" Jeremy asked worriedly. In response to his question, Gaius only stared at the black hole.

Finally..

"The reset.." He muttered audibly, alerting everyone, "..is finished."

As soon as the last word escaped his mouth, some reactions could be seen from the black hole.

It suddenly turned white and abruptly released gases, energy, elements, everything that creates a galaxy. All of it rotated around the white hole as it continued releasing mass amounts of materials and supplements for creation.

All of the deities were amazed by the scene, some looked at it and thought of it as tear-jerking. Asileius turned to Gaius and bowed respectfully before flying towards the infant galaxy, aiding its formation.

As deities and beings of the galaxy, everyone helped. Gaius and Paimon looked at them with satisfaction. "My duty here is done. Should we go to the Abyss now?" He asked Paimon.

Paimon smiled even more when he heard it from Gaius, "As you wish, Your Majesty." He bowed respectfully and glanced at the stiff demons behind him, "I should also take them to their Master, considering that they were misbehaving in front of the new Monarch of Vilfrein."

With the confirmation, Paimon's very being sparked. His body emitted a mysterious glow as the energy transformed the glow on his hand. He then raised it and slashed sideways, creating a hundred-meter wide rift in front of them. "After you, Your Majesty." Paimon stepped aside gentlemanly, letting Gaius enter the realm first.

Gaius first gazed at the rift in front of him, and breathed in deeply before heaving a determined sigh. Having decided that there's no turning back anymore, he stepped forward and vanished into the rift.

Paimon then turned to Demon Talzesar and his men and glared at them distastefully, "Are you waiting for me to drag you in myself?" He narrowed his eyes dangerously as he stated those words.

Not being able to do anything, Talzesar and his company could only walk in. And after them, Paimon finally walked in and closed the rift.

It was unknown when they would appear once more, but it would definitely be more than a millennia, and could even reach millions of years.

In those years, Gaius would become devilishly strong, maybe to the point of even reaching his primogenitor. He would lead Vilfrein to the heights that it could only hope to reach. But of course, those would take time, and Time would be long.

Speaking of Time….

In the far distant galaxy, where time would be the least of one's worries, there's a realm. It was a realm unbounded by the shackles of time, space, and the primordial laws.

Its legacy existed together with the emergence of creation, even before the Supreme Being's existence. No one in the entire universe knew what their purpose or their goals were, but those beings of power knew one thing for certain; to never clash with them.

Inside that realm, there exists a humongous throne that spans through millions of galaxies, and seated there is a similarly humongous being. He was seated calmly at his seat, unmoving.

Suddenly, he faintly moved, but although faint it was noticed by a small person on the throne's armrest. "Teacher? Did something happen?" The person asked.

The humongous being's head turned downwards and looked at the person below as he intently looked at him. If Matthias could see the person, he would definitely know him, considering that this person was the Keeper of the Hall that he banished out of the galaxy because he "failed to protect his daughter", none other than Denos.

Looking at Denos, the humongous being he called Teacher laughed. "Denos, gaze at the distant realm in our East and tell me what you notice."

Denos nodded and turned to the direction where his Teacher was pointing at. He furrowed his brows as he looked at the seemingly simple place. Suddenly, his eyes widened, "The Laws of Time are being changed drastically! Although it's chaotic, its goal seems to be to accelerate the realm's time passage."

"But, considering the humongous size of the realm, the scale of change in the Time Laws should have required an amount of energy that is the size of this primordial universe! Who in existence could do such a feat?!" Denos exclaimed in shock.

In response, the being turned his gaze back to the changing realm, "There's no one else except me in this universe that can do it." He stated deeply.

"Then who is it? It isn't you, is it, Teacher?" Denos turned to him and asked. "You are right. It isn't me." The being answered. This time, Denos was already too confused.

He was suddenly puzzled when the being looked up in the non-existent sky, and gazed at nothingness, "Can I?" He asked.

As if he got a response, the being became the same size as Denos. He turned into a being of cosmic energy, a singular entity in a humanoid form. He had a staff in his hand made of himself, also cosmic energy.

Denos was startled and immediately approached his Teacher, "Why did you reform yourself, Teacher?" Denos asked.

"To answer your question." The Teacher replied. "I am Kathchronus, The Avatar of Time. I am the Time and the embodiment of its laws and intricacies."

"I told you that no one excluding me can do that action in this universe because it is true; No one can do that in this universe." He stated. Gradually, Denos slowly understood what Kathchronus meant, "You mean.. the one doing that is from another Universe?!"
