Chereads / Heaven Purging Monarch / Chapter 4 - Orion(IV)

Chapter 4 - Orion(IV)

With this newfound power, I immediately attacked the heavens but when I got there…

My brothers and sisters, the only ones of our kind that hadn't fallen and my only family left within this world, had been killed, brutally so.

Looking at the being I once called Father and praised as God, my spear moved on its own and beheaded him, my speed far too great for him to react now that I had truly awakened.

Falling to my knees, I didn't know what to do, tears of sorrow and anguish streaming down my face as the memories from my first life flooded my mind and brought back an ocean of pain I thought had dried out.

Trying to hold onto whatever could give my Eternal life meaning, I decided to look for the source of my reincarnation.

I searched for Eons upon Eons, often led to fruitless paths but I didn't give up and eventually, I found something.

It was in a ruin within a Chaos Heaven that I found it.

A mural depicting my entire life and struggles up to that moment.

I was shocked, distraught and confused as I tried to make sense of what I was looking at.

Before I could even investigate, I found myself frozen in place.

Within my soul space where I had my core of Sinful Creation and Holy destruction and my seed that bridged the two cores, a new seed appeared, the seed of Nullity.

Just as my mind reached out, another seed bloomed, the seed of nirvana.

Without warning, the three seeds instantly clashed and nearly ruptured my body but suddenly, the mural that had been in front of me burst into a frenzy of runes that went on to brand themselves unto my existence.

In another instant, my consciousness faded as my life as an angel came to an end and my third and last life began.

"Wow, that was a pretty eventful life, you've had it rough pal." Calmly said the voice as its ginormous maw opened to devour a few delicacies it had just summoned.

"Happens to the best of us."

"It truly does."

My third and last life was a very strange one.

After having fainted within that ruin, I awoke in the womb of what could only be described as a godly entity, it's strength beyond anything I'd ever seen through my various travels in the myriad chaos heavens.

Within my new mother's womb not being able to do much, I looked inward, seeing if my soul had sustained any damage during the rebirth process but to my surprise, it was the opposite.

My soul was even stronger than it had previously been and only seemed to get better but on top of this, besides the three seeds I previously had, three new seeds had appeared.

The seed of the Beyond, seed of Outer Eternity and seed of Everlasting Chaos.

I couldn't do much with those but I could see they were clearly strengthening me in ways I couldn't fathom yet

As time passed, I stayed in my mother's womb for trillions upon trillions of years, my soul constantly mutating and being strengthened by the seeds.

Upon the day of my birth, when my eyes landed on my mother, it all made sense.

I was reborn as a royal eldritch, Heir of the entire race.

Having been totally changed by my two previous lives, I took ahold of my own fate.

I lived a life of glory and conquest as I pushed the Eldritch people to heights no one could've ever imagined possible and conquered more than any could fathom.

I kept my circle close and as pure as possible, not wishing to relive my past life's tragedy but alas…

"There's no way?" The voice said, genuinely shocked.

"There is a way."

"Three times in a row? Are you sure you're not cursed? Or maybe you're subconsciously sabotaging yourself? Otherwise you just have horrendous luck."

"I've asked myself those questions multiple times and despite the level I reached, no answer ever came to me."

As I sat atop existence, overlooking the other major races with contempt, they decided to attack but this time, I had expected it.

I immediately sent all my people to a special sealed realm I had prepared beforehand and decided to fight them all on my own.

Though I nearly died fighting them off, I eventually succeeded and managed to protect my people.

It was to my surprise, when I went back to the sealed realm, that I found out the entire Eldritch council had been bought by the other races.

They had been slowly poisoning my mind so that my judgement became clouded so they could kill off everyone at once.

It all made sense.

Why would I ever accept to fight all of them alone when I had some of the most powerful beings in existence in my side? Why would the council foolishly let me risk my life?

At that point, I simply had enough.

I shattered my eldritch heart and fell into true madness, becoming an Olden One.

My lifeforce rapidly burnt out but with the power I had gained, I bloodied the entire aisles of existence and destroyed eighty percent of all races and beings within the chaos heavens.

I died a lonely but satisfying death.

"And that's when you got here?"

"No."

After my death, due to my atrociously high negative karmic counter, I was brought to Hell for the first time.

Thrown in the deepest pits of the 9th layer of hell for what seemed like eternity, I was left to burn and be tormented until my existence was turned to ashes.

Unsurprisingly, after death, my eyes opened back up and I found myself within this dark endless void in which I wandered around for Eons before…

"…finding you."

After finishing my story a light yawn escaped my lips as I felt more relaxed for some reason.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Worthy, truly worthy. You're not even born yet you've already created such a name and legend for yourself!"

"Truly worthy of being my little brother!"
