Chapter 188: In the Beginning Part 2

Paraluman, the giantess in front of me, smiled faintly, as if remembering a bittersweet memory, after which she continued.

"You see, humans on earth are strange, for the moment they emerged as apes, they have already sought social connection as if they were destined to be social animals. Wolves needed some time to evolve their brain and wire it to form packs, birds took time to realize that they needed flocks to take advantage of aerodynamics... but humans? No, they immediately hunted in packs, their evolution line, as if in instinct knew that they should hunt by exhausting preys, but that is not to say that they don't know how to act alone, they just know that they have to work together for their species to thrive, even to the point that all of them became the destroyers of the planet that they once wanted to develop... the downside of the "strength system" I have given to the intelligent life of Earth, it can be simplified as "Discovery"... you might not be aware of this, but for Pentateuch, the strength system I gave them is "Weapon Familiars"."

"Going back... seeing that... or remembering that because I am already away from Earth at that time, I became once again curious of it... of the feeling of companionship, on why do they kiss, why do they hug... why are they... celebrating something so mundane as a day of birth every year... also, why did they invented gods that they will go to war for, even though they cannot see them and are not real... so, as I was wondering how can I possibly lead my new planet out of eminent destruction, I decided that, maybe if I created true gods, ones that have me as their origin and make them create their own mortals..."

Oh no... oh no, you didn't do that, you just didn't do that... come on, you're so beautiful and you're stupid?

"Ah... yes, at that time, I am truly foolish, after all, I just woke up from my daze, I'm yet to be educated by the horrors of greed and the corruption of knowledge, thus, with great power and ignorance directly proportional to it, I created 10 gods, goddess of life: the first elf, god of death: the necromancer, god of heavens: king of aviators, god of the underworld: not the one killed by Sinag, the only god who never created a mortal, goddess of oceans: the progenitor of the horrors of the oceans, god of the sun: the creator of humans, goddess of the moon: alongside Sinag, created humans, god of monsters: the one who creates challenges for bipedal to thrive, the god of war and peace: the one with who have two faces, never to intersect and finally, the god of the distortion world: the one that prevents anti matter from ever wrecking havoc again... while I represented omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence, I am also the one who controls the most complicated concept of my universe, space and time."

"...Sigh, at that time, because of my curiosity and my eagerness to watch what will these gods create, I opened my omnipresence once more, and of course, was bewildered... for in the future, I saw my children's corpse sprawled through the 5th continent, known now as Deuteronomy, except for 3..."

Paraluman again paused, a pained expression coming out of her face.

"I can't believe it... where could I have gone wrong? I asked myself, I was indignant, thus I browsed further into the future, and then, I saw the primordial gods, my children diminishing to two, with antimatter, dark magic as you call it, have fallen to the hands of the prodigal children of Siginarugan, with the god of death in perpetual tug of war against him... I refuse to believe those future, I really did, yet again, as if I was a limp, I did not do anything to stop it, and like your father have said, because I was curious and hopeful that the mortals of this world will somehow give me a different result... or that gods will not become shrouded by greed... thus, before I knew it, a battle between the gods over the monopoly of a single mortal on the planet started, gods that are aligned with peace or war, or the only neutral one was forced to take up arms just so that it can protect it's mortals, they dragged souls from earth to become their heroes for the future of their race after the war, yet only Urduja successfully grew to become a full blown representative of the wrath of Sinag... also, Bakunawa at that time was alive and will become one of the opponents of Urduja in her way to become an ancient calamity..."

I squinted my eyes at that. If that is the case, why is it said that Urduja and Bakunawa met during the time that the former is still a hero prospect?

"Ah... well, you see, Urduja is quite defiant of her age, so even though she was already the strongest human in the planet when she explored the sealed great forest, she make a whole myth about her becoming the strongest after the end of the war of gods, even making that her cover up stories in several occasions... even when she's narrating, she uses that as a way for people to say that she's still somewhere about 300 years old, and of course, Bakunawa knew Loki and Eris because she's the hero prospect of one of the gods that opposes Valentine and supports Sinag... during the early times of the 5 Pronged forest's sealing, no one below the level of hero can enter that place... so basically, Urduja is a calamity and her wives that accompanied her are all heroes."

"Going back, in that war, the planet became in shambles, the planet I reared... the planet that I oh-so-wanted to get out of it's destiny... was split into 4 parts, mortals died, Urduja, Aerendil... everyone you knew, those are strong, those are weak, everyone, without exemptions perished... I... don't want that outcome, but at that time, I only have 4 ways to fix the planet, and I employed all of them... to make my experiment go on for longer, using space, I created a tesseract that will then encase the time in the 4 shattered part of the planet, and to make the planet intact again I used the energies of my three omnies to patch the planet and create a core strong enough to withstand repeated time loop so that it can regenerate, I forbid gods, even myself in entering the planet and gave them the heroes, prophet and calamities authorities to the mortals, making the last sighting of the gods during the death of the goddess of life, in order to prevent gods from spawning left and right, I created the "system" the interface that will regulate the growth of the mortals that can use the power I once uniquely owned... and alas, soon, after watching the planet destroy itself and get back to a square one, it finally regenerated... however, I didn't know that the one that controls time from the inside, the "dictator of time" is an enemy of Siginarugan, Siginarugan is still busy getting souls from earth to use as replacements for the souls of people like Urduja, Aerendil, you, Eris and Loki, living you as the only one who can remember your past for some reason every soul that goes inside you."

"The goal of this soul is to defeat the vampires and devils, and everytime, "Sophia" is bound to lose, for some reason, and when we investigated, we learned that is because Eris, one of Siginarugan's enemies is the one who controls time, and she ensures to kill Sophia everytime she creates a deviation to the time loop, when we realized this, we are already down to our last attempt before the world oversaturates with energy and explodes from inside out... and me, who, at that time already want nothing but the safety of the mortals and planet that I have embroiled with my irresponsibility naturally found this unacceptable, thus, we devised a plan..."

Again, Paraluman paused, she really pauses a lot for someone as high ranked as her, she looked at me with guilt... even without [Perfect Simulation], I know what she will say, and because of that, anger started to course through me, but still, I have to let the lady continue her speech, anyway, I can change my sex because of my controls of atoms and she will most likely give me her godhood, so we can work out a very good punishment.

Yes, I don't care if she can read my mind.

"Siginarugan, being the one deity closest to the concept of reincarnation, created a soul, a soul so strong that it can have all the qualities that can notice the time loop by one sacrifice of Sinag that he attempts to do again and again, yet to no avail to the reincarnators, we also made you undergo the tragic fate of hearing your mother condemn you, being betrayed by your friend, watching yourself becoming a cheap sadistic genius that relishes when someone got depressed because of him, and gave you a crippling sense of patriotism so that, well, you will not defy our plans... and alas, look at you, looking at me angrily whilst still willing to defeat Eris, for that I apologize, and as I implied earlier, you can do everything you want to me if you broke the time loop, after all, this is my fault...."

Indeed, anger is evident in my face, first I don't want being controlled, second, I didn't expect that even being an orphan and a young genius depraved of his desire to become a hero of his nation was all part of their plan so that I can create an original plan that can destroy something that they created... how do I say this, it's like being a marionette that can fuck very well.

But still, I don't have a choice but to do this, like I said, I will do anything for these undeads to not be enigmatized and for them to live their very long lives the way they want it, even if that means burning the world and ruling above its ashes, or to dance in the palm of the hands of these gods that I am unable to reach.

"It's fine, I get to punish you afterwards..."

Even though it's not really that good of a consolation except for the gap moe I will be getting from her... and becoming a goddess, and then maybe visiting Earth, creating terrestrial planets, and then grabbing the Voyager to orbit that planet...

Well, let's not think about the end for now.

"Sigh... continuing, I still want to apologize further, even though it is planned by your father to not convince me give you [Genius] as he is afraid that you will be detected and killed right away by Eris, I still held back your growth by a lot, for that, like I said earlier, you can give me all your terms and I shall not disagree."

Me being livid and angered is still there, I am a prideful person, everyone knew that, but at the same time, I know that even if they said that they put me in a dog leash and walked me like a Labrador, I will still destroy the loop, this is just me, you know.

_Well, I just have to get the ending that gives me the most pleasure..._

Thinking of that, I spoke.

"Alright, first, I want your godhood and split it between my wives, excluding Eris, my future one as I have future plans for her, as for who will be the ones that wants to become gods, I will have to ask them, of course I will be one of them, this world is too small for me to thrive."

Paraluman nodded at this, but then, she gave me a warning.

"Remember, I am now not what I used to before, my restrictions to the gods cannot be lifted by me, or even you for a long time, you can reach my level, but who knows when can you descend as you to your home planet or your Pentateuch, I will not stop you or dissuade you, but I think you should know of this."

I nodded. I have pondered this for long.. In this kind of world, becoming a god is not that far off, so I wanted to become one. I'll just have to ask Eleanor, Bakunawa, and Auntie Midori if they wanted to, as I was thinking of that, I continued.

"Of course, you will be a mortal, I will not give you long life, and you will bear my children, a lot of them, until the day you die of old age, well, let's not talk about that now."

Paraluman stared at me for a minute upon hearing that, well... I guess that is not great of a great punishment... but still, I don't want to kill her, because... You know...

I sighed, for soft breasts, I have gone soft, I will just wish that all her pregnancies will be quintuplets.

"Also, I want to have the permission to leave a clone, an undying one, forever in Kamatayan as its guardian..."

I continued my demands, well, she's basically agreeing to anything that I say, so...

Such is the end of my meeting with the goddess of creation.

Who would have thought that all of these could be summarized as "It's all Paraluman's fault."

_But still, it's no fun if she's not resisting..._

If there are plot holes, release do ignore it, this is the disadvantage of creating a novel in a whim and then accidentally, it became mildly popular that it needs 100+ chapters to be completed, this will not happen again, I hope.
