Chereads / Eternal Cycle : The end of 9th Cycle / Chapter 6 - Major Cycle and Minor Cycle

Chapter 6 - Major Cycle and Minor Cycle

Hearing about how the major cycle is changing, Adam went silent and just float there around 2 meters in front of me. As for me, I kept on wondering what exactly is this major cycle. If there's a major cycle then there's a minor cycle too I guess. And according to what Adam said before, the cycle right now is supposed to be the 9th and it's already close to the end of it.

"That's right, this time's cycle is nearing its end. The cycle was supposed to be going on for almost all eternity. It will keep on cycling until the last page of the akashic record is opened."

The voice of God suddenly confirmed what I was thinking with additional information. Since God is answering then I might as well ask a bit more.

"Then what does major cycle mean? And how do these cycles affect us, humans?" I asked

"Major cycle is the cycle that comes after every three minor cycles in which it's the restarting point of this world. Whenever a major cycle ended, the world will be reset into a blank slate. In a way, this is what you humans supposedly call the apocalypse. The world will be destroyed and created again. And after every major cycle, you humans will have your souls either go to heaven or hell but overall, 90% of those souls will go to heaven. Before they get to heaven all these souls will be cleansed first in hell though. And the rest 10% usually would just stay in hell for eternity. Don't ask me the criterion for being part of 10% though, I don't want anyone to intentionally follow those stupid fellows." answered God in a much quieter voice. I guess God is being considerate of me.

"Then what are the three minor cycles? And before this, when I met Satan he said that my soul has traces of magic in it what does it mean and why do I have it?" I say as I asked God while feeling that I was being a bit shameless in asking God this many times. But I just can't help but want to ask about it.

"It's fine being shameless in front of me, in fact even if you curse me or say God is a failure just like what you always say all the time when you were a teen I would still forgive you. Well enough about that.

The three minor cycles are three cycles of energy in which the first minor cycle will be the use of aether where the world will have angels and demons walk the world. In this cycle too the blueprint of human genetics will be prepared. And since I already created Adam, they don't actually create any real human genetics and just go to the world to play around since the world in the first minor cycle is mostly empty. This cycle can also be called the heaven and hell caretaker holiday.

For the second minor cycle, I will personally dilute the concentration of aether inside the world from the leftover of the first cycle. As the aether gets diluted more and more, it will slowly change from aether into mana which is the energy used to cast magic. In this minor cycle, the one who lives in it is what you humans called the dinosaurs. And no, it's not that those dinosaurs use magic, dinosaurs are just like how you humans see animals on earth. And the one who uses magic is a race just like you humans, they are bipedal but one thing different between humans and them is the fact that they are not corporeal. Their race is called the Eximian and their role for me is to create the blueprint for the souls of you humans.

And then comes the third minor cycle which is the time for you humans to walk the land. At this cycle, the mana in the world is already 99.9% cleaned and there will be only a minuscule amount of mana still leftover. As for the first human for each cycle, they would be a copy of Adam and Eve. The copy will be having a piece of both Adam and Eve's souls but it was not a complete soul so there won't be any duplicate between them. After the two of them died, Adam will have a choice of either taking that piece back or not. While the soul piece of eve will be reused for the next third minor cycle." God answered my question in a lengthy explanation.

It looks like the explanation is being kept as simple as possible. And it really helps me. Then I remembered the question about how there's a traces of magic in my soul. When I was about to ask about it, God suddenly says.

"As for that traces of magic in your soul, I will look into it. Go to my place after you finished talking with Adam since it looks like he still wants to talk to you for now."

When I heard God say that I turned my head and look into the blob of water in front of me.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" I say to Adam. Since it looks like I will be staying here for a bit longer I decided to just chat with Adam for now.

"Remember my offer? How about it? are you accepting the deal or not?" Adam asked.

"Although it does look tempting to go reincarnate again, I'm still not sure about trying to take back the akashic record from the world rift. It sounds like a dangerous place" I answered with a bit of hesitation.

Then Adam says

"It's fine, it's fine after all the world rift is dangerous. In there, without the ability to move aether, you are just like how an ant tried to take on an elephant. And being able to move aether doesn't mean being able to use aether. Moving and using aether are two different things. Moving aether is just like how you push a motorbike when the engine breaks. While using aether is like how you drive your motorcycle. See? The difference is big right? Even I, as the ancestor of you humans and as one of the chosen, can only use aether a little bit. So here's your deal then, I won't ask you to take that page but I will just have you report to me what exactly changed at the end of the 9th major cycle. Although I can still get the news from the monitoring angel it still beats asking about it to those who live through it. How about it? do you feel like accepting the deal now?"

Hearing what Adam says makes me start to even more seriously ponder whether I should take the deal or not. Based on what God says before this, there will be a big change in this major cycle. since there will be a big change then that means my life there will most likely not as mundane as before. Should I accept it or not?

I stayed still as I began to ponder while looking at this blob of water with a piece of meat inside it.
