Chapter 24 - Immortal World: A Message from the Future-Past final part

Pov Elizabeth:

As I lay in my mother's embrace, I pondered how this situation could have happened.

"I was distracted all day thanks to those strange dream sensations," I thought.

Although I couldn't remember anything, the sensations in those dreams made me automatically reflect, as if they were experiences that, although I couldn't remember, were imprinted on my body.

One example I can think of is when I saw that disgustingly ugly monster. The feeling that there was something even more terrifying behind that thing was forming with each dream I had, and I remembered it. In that way, I could also see how my psychology was changing.

This situation was practically the representation of the theory.

The fact that I am willingly sleeping with my mother is something my pre-dream self would never allow, either because of dragon pride or my instincts ingrained in my bloodline.

What instincts? Well, the mothers of our particular race are by no means qualified mothers, due to their extreme pride. The fact that an absolute dragon mother knows her offspring before adulthood means that she is interfering or that you are not worthy of being her descendant, leading only to one path: death.

Although I know my mother is not a dragon, these types of behaviors, according to my inherited knowledge, can manifest with a rough concentration of bloodline. Obviously, this also depends on the individual's will, but my instincts will not wait to verify that. That is why my mother's presence terrified me as a baby. Those are my survival instincts responding.

That is also a reason why other types of dragons despised us, as even the evil dragons, those baptized as such for having destructive or repugnant nature, their mothers cared for their offspring with at least some moderation, unlike the Absolute Dragons.

Going back to the situation, no matter how much I have changed, the feeling of shame is fully imprinted in my mind.

"I thought to myself, 'This is a good opportunity to test if someone's presence alters anything in this dream,' while trying to convince myself to take advantage of this extremely embarrassing situation.

Snuggling up in my mother's unnecessarily large breasts, I tried to fall asleep.

Dream 6:

When I woke up...

As usual, I remembered the events of the previous dreams, but this time it was different.

Instead of being in someone else's perspective, I was seeing the situation as if it were a recording, just like that first dream where I observed that planet.

As for the situation, well...

The sky was blood red and on the ground, or if you could call it ground, all you could see was black, just black, without any plants or even soil that seemed to have any nutrients, just black.

As for the events, I could see a war between the many races I previously saw: angels, demons or at least I think they were, elves, and other races that I don't recognize.

They were fighting against...

"I see them..." I reacted slowly as I realized I could relatively clearly see what those races were fighting against.

They were aberrant creatures, as you could discern features that could be recognized from other races, like the fact that in the sky where the angels were fighting, the flying things had shapes that made them look like large dragons or lizards with wings.

What surprised me the most was the fact that each of the thousands of aberrations I saw on that battlefield gave me the same vibe as that disgusting monster that scared me so much.

"If I don't recognize this, it's because I'm an idiot." When I saw the identity of the things those races were fighting against so desperately, I could no longer doubt.

The fact that mom appears in these dreams was the most conclusive proof that what I was seeing was the future.

"Then, the biggest dragon..." when I was thinking of something horrible, something happened on the battlefield.

Roar!

A giant dragon appeared on one side of the battlefield.

Examining the situation closely, I saw that all those races were forming a defensive perimeter around something.

When I focused my "eyes" on what they were defending, I saw many young women in a circle, continuously sending what I presume is energy to a rainbow-colored orb in the center.

My curiosity had no limits and I tried to see what was in that orb, and what I saw was....

That little dragon I dreamed about earlier in the temporal room, that dream I dismissed as a fantasy.

But this dragon was slightly different, as it shone with rainbow colors and looked like a newborn.

As if sensing my gaze, the little dragon lifted its tiny head, looked at me, and in my head, I could hear a very childish voice that said a phrase I remember very well, a phrase from that dream.

"Observe and do not forget."

As if influenced by something, my sight turned to the dragon I saw before. I had a feeling that I should analyze every possible detail of this scene or I would regret it, this feeling was the same as the one I had when I killed that ugly monster.

Knowing that this is probably the future, I obeyed my instincts and the first thing I analyzed was that dragon.

Its body was larger than the dragon I presumed was its father, but its appearance was the clear representation of the greatness of the Absolute Dragons.

Its giant body was covered in scales resembling pure white feathers, its eyes were golden, had a beautiful shape representing royal majesty, and it had golden horns that pointed to the sky as if provoking it.

The dragon was just like the one I saw when I was born in the vision of the sky that according to my father, the Celestial Dao created to celebrate my birth. That dragon was... me.

The situation on the battlefield was poor, as only my future self covered the northern part, leaving the other sides to the allied races, which were losing ground faster and faster.

Craaack!

Craaack!

Craaack!

Suddenly, the space in the sky broke and multiple aberrations came out of those cracks, but that was not the most worrying thing.

Because in the biggest, incredibly gigantic crack, a creature came out that my brain could not recognize, no... it was more like my view of that thing was blocked by something so that it wouldn't harm me or I wouldn't recognize it.

That incredibly large thing spoke:

"Be proud, for out of all the realities I have destroyed, only you have endured this long. Now join me in this new life and together we will sing an eternal gospel."

Its voice, that damn voice, was terrifying. So much so that even though it didn't have a physical body, for some reason, I felt like I was trembling.

I could see that the little dragon purposely let me understand what that thing meant so that I could feel the gravity of the situation, but I wondered, why don't you let me remember these events when I wake up?

Unfortunately, the dragon couldn't read my mind or simply didn't want to answer me.

The dragon, who claimed to be my future self, as if he had been waiting for this moment, activated a technique or something, because her body began to grow and her appearance changed a bit.

Her pure white body darkened a bit and multiple spots that looked like stars manifested on her body. Her golden horns lit up with rainbow colors, just like the orb where the little dragon was located.

Around him, multiple elemental manifestations made their presence known: fire, ice, earth, lightning, and many other phenomena occurred around him.

When his transformation was complete, his golden eyes now had rainbow colors and, as if he was already prepared, he spread his wings and flew closer to that thing that I couldn't see.

The giant thing did nothing as it watched the dragon approach, as if it didn't care at all.

At a safe distance, the dragon stopped in the air and stretched his wings to the max. As he did so, multiple magic circles formed around him.

"Magic!?" Yes, this surprised me too, since there is supposed to be no magic in the immortal world. But then I remembered that in this dream I had already seen worlds fall, so maybe there is another explanation.

I also saw other runes that I presumed were from different worlds gathering around him, and when they stopped forming, they spun in synchrony, forming lights of different colors. The energy generated was charged in the air, ready to explode.

FUSHHHH!

The ground lit up so much that I couldn't see what happened until the casting process was complete.

What I saw was impressive, as multiple bodies of mythical creatures and races that I had seen before formed around him, instead of elemental manifestations. The difference? They all had bodies that looked like constellations, as they were formed by what resembled stars.

Among them, I saw what looked like chickens with flames or ice. I also saw a horned horse and other incredible creatures, and there in the background, I could see...

Two familiar dragons, one large and dark, and one purple.

"Father, mother," that's what I thought when I saw them, unfortunately, they only seemed like manifestations of the remaining part of their power, as their eyes contained no emotions.

As the manifestations formed, a event interrupted the battle on the battlefield.

It was the orb to which the women gave their energy, this orb shone brightly with the colors of the rainbow.

The unrecognizable monster seemed to see that this orb was not good for him, as the fierceness of the aberrations present increased.

Seeing this, my future self sent her manifestations, except for mom and dad's, to the battlefield to protect the orb and the women, while she remained focused on that unrecognizable monster.

The battle was incredible.

"I don't think I'll see anything like this in my life, except when it's my turn to fight in the future," I thought as I watched the manifestations wreak havoc on the battlefield, while the races I had seen before withdrew and supported the rainbow orb with some energy.

As time passed, I saw that my future self's horns were losing their shine, indicating her lack of power.

"No, don't stop now!" I shouted in my mind. I knew that if she stopped supporting the manifestations with energy, everything they were doing would fail.

As if my prayers were heard, the orb released waves of color...strangely gray.

The unrecognizable monster was alarmed by this event and moved his incredibly large body to stop the process. My future self, seeing this, did what all dragons do in a state of desperation: she burned her core.

When certain species of dragons feel that they cannot defeat their opponent with their normal strength, they burn their core as a desperate measure, which gives them a strength beyond their capabilities at the cost of their body and soul for a limited time.

The rainbow-colored light shone once again, but with greater intensity than before. I could see how that light was somehow restraining the monster, as if burning him or something like that, it held him back. The monster spoke.

"Do you think you can stop me? Time has made me patient and #$%# will not be completed before you fall," he said.

Although I couldn't understand everything he was saying, it seemed that the monster knew what they were doing by giving energy to that orb.

The fight intensified as my future self stopped the monster with its glow, although unfortunately burning the core did not give it infinite energy.

My future self's horns lost their glow once again and some manifestations disappeared. I could see my future self dying, but just before that happened, something peculiar occurred.

Mom and Dad's manifestations, who were watching in case the aberrations attacked the women, began to spin faster and faster around them before turning into rays of energy and landing on the orb, which made their gray waves more prominent.

This event puzzled the giant monster, and the aberrations lost their movement for a moment.

My future self didn't seem to care as it looked in a certain direction. I also looked over there, but only found the sun of that world representing the sunset.

"What are you looking at?" I asked myself.

It could be that he was seeing her last sunset or something, because after a few moments, she closed her golden eyes that had already lost their glow. I wondered once again why he was closing her eyes right on the battlefield.

Time stopped, not metaphorically, but literally.

Everything, from targeted attacks to beastly roars, froze and began to lose color. A very strange event.

When I turned towards the small dragon, which was the only one that could explain to me what the hell was going on at this moment, I found nothing in that orb.

CRACK! CRACK!

Suddenly, I saw multiple cracks forming in what I was seeing. These cracks were different from what I was seeing, it was more like everything I was seeing was a mirror and it was cracking no matter what was in front of it, whether it be the aberrations, the women, the unrecognizable monster, and even my future self.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Just as it was about to explode, my vision darkened.

POV: ??????

The moment my father and mother's divine manifestations entered the Sphere of Eternal Sunset, I knew we had succeeded.

But instead of feeling joy and satisfaction, all the emotions I had were replaced by sadness, a lot of sadness and melancholy.

To make everything work, I lost... no, we lost a lot. From the races I considered my children, to my own daughters, all for a chance.

As I looked at the time Valkyries, formed in a circle and draining their life energy into the Sphere of Eternal Sunset, I felt a lot of sadness and at the same time, I remembered my sisters, my dear and powerful sisters.

Each one was the ultimate representation of their race, each with the opportunity to be goddesses and universal powers, each with a dream, each giving their life both in body and soul for this purpose.

The worst part of it all was that I was there to see their last moments, and they all said goodbye with a smile, saying that in the next opportunity, we could smile together in a field full of diverse flowers.

I also remembered Dad and Mom.

"Father... Did I do well? I think your regrets can be fulfilled in that next life."

"Mother... if only you were here, only your hug and comfort would release me from my deep sadness and I could go in peace."

As if nothing mattered to me anymore, I looked in a certain direction and saw him. It was the last sun of this galaxy and it shone so warmly.

"You are the last sun of this galaxy and you shine so warmly," I said as I watched it.

As if thanking me, I could see that multiple figures I recognized manifested in the sun.

"Everyone...".

It didn't matter if it was an illusion or if I was delirious, what I saw was everyone I lost at some point. The imperial queens, my generals, my daughters, my sisters, and... Dad.

It wasn't the father I knew when the war started, a father full of regret and sadness... no, the one I saw was my father full of courage and with an innocent smile that always managed to calm me, the father who always took care of me when I was a child.

My dragon eyes filled with tears and as I searched for that person who consoled me and urged me to continue when I lost my father, I found her. My mother was right by my side, smiling like the last time I saw her.

When I saw her maternal eyes, no matter that I was in my supreme form, I felt my mother's warmth just like when she hugged me that day when I cried.

I closed my eyes

While I felt peace filling my heart, suddenly I found myself in an unknown place, surrounded by light and an indescribable feeling of love and warmth. Looking around, I saw everyone I had lost: my daughters, my sisters, my friends, even my father and mother.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing, but at the same time, it was such a real and tangible feeling that couldn't be denied. I approached them, feeling overwhelming joy and a peace I had never experienced before.

Each one of them looked at me with a smile on their faces and their eyes filled with love. They surrounded me and hugged me, and I heard their voices saying, "Welcome."
