Chapter 214: Time is Relative

Normally, time is something that can't be seen by any species that uses the visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum to see, however, that's only for the people of the planet Earth, the planet of Pentateuch is different, they live with the most potent energy, the driving energy of all that exists within reality itself, and not only that, they can synthesize such a wonderful energy within their body.

This means that anything that was formed by nature, is one way or another, is made out of Planck energy, or mana.

This energy drives magic, divinity, existence itself, in short, in this context, anything made by pure Planck energy, divinity, for example, can destroy anything that is also made out of pure mana.

Thus for Sophia, when she saw the green streak of pure, unfiltered death divinity, it didn't came as a surprise when another shattering sound was heard alongside the louder scream of the woman besides her that's being syphoned by her energy because, in essence, she is the battery and the dictator time, in a successful reset will she only not be burdened by this duty.

She might have the time divinity, but she doesn't have the status like Paraluman to be acknowledged by the most energetic dual nature concept of the universe to be its controller.

Well, "recognized" is for the lack of a better term, as Sophia can't explain divinity fully without experiencing it.

Do you see light just coming out of a human's mouth?

Sophia watched Eris wreath in pain, she rolled and rolled to the ground pathetically kicking up dust and putting grass and dried leaves in her body.

_How pathetic, I wonder how more pathetic she will look like when she starts rolling around with me later._

Sophia's confident smile broadened, yet of course, she knew that she have to be careful, according to Eris, she have "Error" as her very first power, which Sophia can probably counter with [Perfect Simulation], but that would need another 5 chapter of fighting, which will suck for the readers.

"WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? TIME IS ABSOLUTE! TIME IS UNTOUCHABLE! I SAW SOPHIAS, LOKIS OR WHOEVER THE FUCK ARE THEY SUCCOMB AND BEND BEFORE IT! WHY!? WHY!?"

Eris shouted as she heard the notification she didn't know existed:

[Notice: Warning! The Tesseract is on the verge of collapse, another impact will destroy the time loop completely! The dictator of time is requested to make a move, immediately!]

Sophia however, ignored Eris' retching body as she thought of the circumstances if she didn't finish this fight right now, the dictator of time's mind is now in disarray, not only did she remembered that she doesn't have a brother, she also saw how is her greatest power was fooled by a god that she thought bends to time helplessly, and to top that all off, time was fooled so bad, that one of its string of events is wrong for several sequences from the second up to this supposed to be last restart.

Eris is not just humiliated, she feels like an idiot, an idiot who continuously, again and again, worked hard for the sufferings of her brother, who didn't even exist in her memories that she replays in her mind like a broken disk.

Yet she believed that Loki existed, if it's Sophia, she would explain it like how an atheist met God and still said "God is not real".

It's stupid.

Yet of course, the woman who had led her (or stalled time) to such a state cared not about Eris' mental condition, Sophia continued to look at her in amusement as she replied.

"I always wonder, in a world where everything can be created by mana, Planck energy, the most potent energy that drives the very laws of physics of the universe so hell bent in thinking that time is absolute... even when Einstein, the smartest man of my previous world... well, some would argue it's me, but that's beyond the point. What I'm saying is, even with such a man saying it, the nature of time is still up for debate..."

Sophia paused for a moment and then averted her eyes from Eris to the sky, which caused Eris, who was gritting her teeth, hoping for the return of her Error powers, to stare at her, as she didn't have the capacity to answer, which Sophia knew.

"Well, yes, I'm from another world, and I'm what they call a physicist, someone... that explores the truth of how the world works physically, like how does a ball bounce... to how is the universe formed... oh, and by the way, not even my two wives knows this, so you should be honored to be the first woman to know my origins."

Eris felt annoyed, all this while, all Sophia does with her is flirt, as if this woman who's supposed to always just die helplessly doesn't understand the gravity of the situation, yet again, Sophia cares not about these thoughts of Eris, she still continued.

"And as one of the frontrunners of physics in my world before, I was asked a very hateful question often: Is time relative, or absolute? I mean, what the hell is wrong with those people, think about this, time can affect everything, energy, stars, gravity, black holes... everything someone can think of is not spared by time, and do you know what's the most layman explanation of what a particle is?"

Sophia squinted her eyes at the sky, making Eris confused, yet the queen of the undeads continued her speech.

"Particles can affect things, like me, I'm a particle, so if I punch you, you will feel pain. Also, time bends in gravity, in black holes it dilates so much that, if someone fell on one, they will see the end of the universe, that is what a wave does and all these people do is say 'we don't have math to confirm yet' like Newton didn't invent calculus because previous maths can't keep up with the speed of the earth's revolution... sigh."

Sophia sighed, as if finally venting out her anger, of course, the super annoyed and on the verge of madness dictator of time, Eris, couldn't help but explode into rage.

"WHO THE HELL CARES ABOUT THAT! JUST TELL ME WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIMWIT!"

Hearing this, Sophia looked at Eris, who somehow, someway felt true fear for the first time in her life, but the queen of undeads smiled, and as she did, the falling leaves, the flow of air and even the rotation of Pentateuch itself started to dilate, stretching over seconds where it wasn't supposed to stretch, seeing this, Sophia looked at her front again and pointed at a small, diamond shaped object falling from the sky.

"What I'm saying is that, time is relative, it's like light, a particle and a wave at the same time, it's just that light can be powered by any energy that exists in the universe, unlike time that can only be powered by mana, and powered by mana means controllable by the mortals of this world... you... can control it... right? Look, that device is something I made, it will dilate the waves of time encasing this planet until the particles of time dissipate alongside the waves... In short, this is my... way to control... time..."

Sophia need not to explain further as every single mortal on this planet, strong, weak, bipedal, monsters, or ordinary animals saw how did the very passage of time stretched as the diamond-shaped object descended slowly.

Seconds started to went on for minutes, and then hours, and years, centuries... who knew how many years it really took for the Planck bomb to descend, but when it did reach the earth of Pentateuch, it didn't explode as how Sophia in her two lives intended it to be, that's because, like she said, the Planck energy absorbed by the Planck bomb is used to stretch the wavelength of time, and stretch it, the bomb did.

The moment the bomb descended, the whole world turned into a gigantic blue space with geometric lines, at this moment, the perception of time of all beings of Pentateuch have already returned to normal, and Eris, knowing the repercussions of what was about to happen, attempted to move but Sophia stomped the back of her head with her foot, causing Eris to not be bale to see that whole blue space being ruptured in two halves.

Though, as the mortal with the most connection to time, Eris felt all of the unused divinity within her to forcefully be sucked out of her, causing another excruciating bout of endless pain. The divinity returned to Paraluman, though the two ladies didn't know of that.

"See, I was right, time is relative."

Sophia used her foot to anchor the chin of Eris and saw the woman have her eyes rolled back, which made her wonder how the dictator of time would look if she partnered it up with bouncing breasts and lolling tongue.

Though Sophia, the destroyer of the time loop doesn't have the time to think of such things further for she suddenly felt massive amount of energy, divinity to be exact funnel from somewhere even she can't see to her very soul, this was accompanied by the gradual return of the scenery to what it was before.

_So I'm now becoming a goddess, huh._

Sophia sighed and closed her eyes to relish in the feeling of apotheosis, and in her exhilaration of another black cocoon slowly enveloped her.

_You've got to be kidding me, this evolution sequence is already bland._

Yet of course, the system, which has been asked to do its final task, cared not for such thoughts.

[Notice: The Mission [Final Quest to Godhood] has been completed the divinity [Space], [Time] and [Creation] has been given to individual [Sophia Demiurge], the [Creation] divinity is a bonus from the mother goddess of creation and for her to truly experience the life of a mortal.]

Sophia ignored the notification and waited for her apotheosis to be completed, which took about a minute before she finally, once again, changed form.

She once again grew half a foot, her already amply lascivious body became even more voluptuous, her newly morphed dress didn't help in hiding her newly upgraded assets, causing them to be one wrong move away from spilling out.

Somehow, in Sophia's head appeared a wedding veil whilst on her feet are thigh-high socks with small skulls embedded at the middle top and the ankle part.

"Why does the goddess of space, time, and creation look like a pornhwa woman about to get railed?"

Sophia can't help but ask, and while she's doing so, the new goddess, alongside all the people of Pentateuch who were still shocked due to the overload of all that happened in a span of a few hours, heard.

[Final Notice: The time loop has been successfully destroyed by the new Goddess of Space, Time, and Creation, Sophia Demiurge. The system will now forever be terminated; all progress of mortals and demigods shall never be constrained by numbers ever again.]

[Thank you for using the system for your quantifying needs.]

Sophia sighed at the last confirmation of her victory whilst getting insights into the nature of her powers.

"So I can freely enter the world without time, huh? Also, the world without time is the failsafe of the undeads and will be used to transfer the whole race to another universe."

Sophia said out loud, her voice is just like when he first met the prophet, one second it was like a child, and an adult, an elderly a man and more as she looked at the star studded tunnel she have just opened, outside it is a planet sized eye looking at the wormhole with curiosity.

It was a yet to be emotionally awakened creator, seeing this, Sophia turned off the worm hole and shook her head, Siginarugan really is someone who knew the virtue of leaving an exit to oneself.

"Ah, I should probably make the vampires give up... Loki seems to be ordering the devils to stop fighting already."

_____________

Eleanor looked around, realizing that her perception of time had been restored, and a notification about the abolishment of the system for all eternity was given to her, and perhaps, all people of the world made her realize one thing.

"Has Sophia fought time itself and won?"

Eleanor was about to ponder such things, but at that moment, a rip in space appeared in front of her, though now, it's not the blue 4th dimension but a direct portal to the side where the new goddess, Sophia Demiurge, is in.

"Yes, Eleanor, I defeated time, because of that, I have to run away from Bakunawa for a while because she knows I can turn her into a male, and I don't want to get pregnant first. Anyway, can you please use Hebi's corpse to scare off all the remaining vampire into an official retreat and surrender? I know they have already given up when their queen's powers was defeated, but I think I should make it clear that I am now their queen... you come here after that, bye."

Eleanor nodded while gulping a mouthful of saliva.

"I think she would need to run away from me too."

That's Eleanor's thought before using a clump of sand to float and hold the corpse of Hebi by the hair as she slowly flew away.

___________

The ruined city at the edge of Valentine and Apolaki.

Bakunawa slowly propped herself up as she looked all over the place with confusion.

Suddenly, she heard a voice from her back.

"Don't turn around, yes, I was the one who did that, I'm amazing, yes I know, take a rest and come here."

After hearing this, Bakunawa's got engulfed with a stream of the sand of time reversing all of her injuries.

Now she's fully healed.

Bakunawa sighed and slumped to the ground.

"Sophia... sounds hotter that usual just now."
