The child of creation decided to leave, but from his expression, he was feeling down.
For a being with no feelings or expressions to feel like this, what did it witness?
"Show off," spoke the child smiling, "but it was beautiful..."
"For there to exist such a beautiful sight..."
It looked at where the black hole appeared.
Where Cayn did wonders.
That was no mere ordinary black hole.
Its shape merely resembled it.
But it was stunning.
Truly a work of art.
The two-thousandth tome's first technique.
Alongside the tomes before he witnessed as Cayn kept rewinding time.
He shall engrave them in his memories.
The child of creation disappeared.
---
Diana and the others were frozen in space.
Cayn suddenly appeared in front of them.
He stood there for a moment without saying a word.
His eyes were stuck, staring at her.
Diana...
As if he hadn't seen her for millions of years.
Every time he reminded time he would always choose to go back to where he left her to fight.
He only wanted to see her.
Because he would be so enraged to leave for billions of years torturing the army, not even meeting her once.
He only wanted to get back to her.
He was tired.
He sighed.
And the universe caught its breath.
Diana woke up from the trance to find him standing in front of her.
His siblings and Malik were behind.
Amir and Ayaka, the wisdom god and the chaos goddess.
Diana held her hand up, placing it on his cheek as her eyebrows twitched, as if she noticed something was amiss with him.
She spoke softly. "Let us go back, your mother is waiting."
He nodded and held her hand on his face.
"And your siblings?"
Cayn turned to look at them.
"They will have other matters to attend to," he spoke as he looked at Amir.
The wisdom god nodded.
Cayn walked to them while holding Diana's hand.
"This is, your big sister-in-law."
Akio alongside the others looked at Cayn quietly for a moment.
He shook his head. "Brother, that's the last question that's in our minds-"
"Ay!" Suddenly screamed Akio as he was hit in the head by Cayn.
"Clearly I said that because she matters more than this bullshit," spoke Cayn coldly.
He still treated them like kids.
Akio looked stupefied for a moment.
He started giggling, then laughing.
A little bit later a tear suddenly fell from his eye.
"Eh!" he stopped laughing for a moment.
"Na ni kore?" (What's this?) he asked confused.
He raised his head to look at Cayn, only for this one to hug him without saying a word.
"Thank you for staying alive," spoke Cayn gently.
Akio didn't say anything anymore, he held Cayn's shirt and grabbed it tightly.
And gradually the sounds of him crying were raising.
His wife, Akira, also started tearing up as she murmured, "Dummy, crying like that..."
The others followed suit.
Cayn spoke no more and smiled at them lightly, for them to collapse on him.
Hugging him from all sides.
Diana watched this scene with a warm smile.
Look at them jumping on him like children.
Children...
Her eyes suddenly focused on Cayn.
And before she realized she had been staring at him for a while.
Ayaka sighed as she stared at Diana.
She lost before even fighting.
But no, she didn't lose.
The moment Cayn went to fend off the army she already understood the feelings she had for Cayn were merely confusing love for admiration.
Yeah, they were merely admiration for this man.
She sighed again and left without saying a word after meeting Amir's eyes.
She had to prepare.
What cayn said wasn't false.
The universe will give birth to creator gods or there will be those who will raise from the infinite amount of worlds left unsupervised.
There was a lot of work to do.
And Amir understood Cayn would send his family with him.
That was obviously to become strong enough to fend off the future work coming for them.
Cayn met Amir's eyes.
The wisdom god smiled and left.
Cayn was here.
It will be okay if they catch up for a while.
He also left with a smile on his face.
Diana suddenly snapped back with a bit of redness on her face.
It seems like, some matters can still make her make this expression when it comes to her man.
She giggled.
---
In the middle of a gorgeous castle.
There was Amina, sitting at a desk in her workplace, reading over some papers.
She slowly put the pen in her hand.
She took a deep breath and held her head, feeling tired.
Suddenly a voice spoke at the corner of the room.
"Did I make you wait long, mother?"
Amina's eyes widened for a moment.
But they soon turned warm and gentle with a smile.
"Yeah, you made me wait."
Her eyes turned to meet Cayn's.
"How can I make you forgive me," he said with a smile.
"Take care of these papers, they're taking a big toll on my shoulders."
"Hmm."
Suddenly the papers were burned by Cayn's dark energy.
She looked at him, for him being a silly snake.
"You know what I meant, pf," she pouted.
He giggled. "It's okay. You see, my beautiful wife is taking care of all of them," said Cayn with a light grin.
---
Yes.
Right now.
Diana, was flying over the demon's territory alone.
Her eyes were cold.
Her eyelids fell on her red pupils.
A trait maybe taken from her man.
She straightened her back.
Sss.
She took a deep and sharp breath.
THUD.
Her energy burst.
A massive red aura covered the sky as if she was a blood moon.
"Let's put an end to this."
After experiencing Cayn's world no amount of demons would ever scare her.
But was she suiciding? Jumping into the middle of the enemy fields alone?
She smirked.
Even though she didn't witness the entirety of Cayn's fight.
She saw enough.
Enough to think, that even creator gods, were nothing but a stepping stone.
A queen of a small human kingdom?
No.
NO!
She will rise above.
And maybe will come the day she will rein over these creator gods.
There WILL COME A DAY!
SHE WILL STAND ABOVE ALL!
Diana's ambitions, only grew.
Yeah.
She will raise above.
But first.
This will be her first stepping stone.
