Chereads / Warlock Crimson Of The Abyss / Chapter 10 - The Test Starts

Chapter 10 - The Test Starts

The darkness itself began to eat me; in spite of this, I did not feel fear or panic, it was as if it was something natural for me.

I knew before that I had to pass this test to use my Physique, but what test will it be to awaken a Physique related to a Primordial God? That question I have been asking myself for quite some time. Although I could use it unconsciously in my moments where I was aggressively thinking of destroying someone, I still could not control it at will and sometimes despite thinking of destroying, it did not even respond.

This was something that frustrated me but I couldn't do anything about it, after all I already knew that it was going to be very difficult considering the origin of my physique.

I could only hope that somehow or other I would pass the test, I had the feeling that after this, I could really start my own path to strength, to power, to rule, to.... Annihilate.

[The Test is about to begin, are you ready?]

A robotic voice reached my ears, I couldn't tell the gender of the voice because it was confusing, I could tell it could be both genders. I was not too surprised since Esmeralda had told me about this before in the Test.

"I'm Ready, start the Test" I said as the darkness had already enveloped me completely. I couldn't hear anything coming from outside nor could I see light, although I didn't miss it at all.

It didn't take long for the darkness to warp, it began to create strange shapes.

[The Test has begun, good luck] the robotic voice communicated as the darkness became more and more distorted.

At this point I had a minimal idea of what was going on, so I didn't panic but I did get a little scared, after all, apparently the darkness itself was forming a.... Dominion.

The darkness seemed to expand, forming a cube where I was the epicenter.

The cube seemed small but also infinite, it was as if I could see the end, the pairs of the cube itself but you couldn't reach out or touch it. It was terrifying, as that meant that the Cube had mastery of the same laws of reality and space.

The Cube of darkness seemed to be getting deeper every second, with the darkness getting deeper and deeper. At this moment he is sure that if the moonlight was illuminating the world, this same darkness would swallow the light completely.

*Auge*

A strange sound rang out a few meters from where I was located, my crimson eyes scanning the whole place, looking at every corner and searching for any flaws as quickly and efficiently as possible.

All I could see was darkness deepening and deepening. It was what I expect, after all, I'm in the same domain as a....

"So, you're finally here, huh?" A husky male voice, low but at the same time dignified, wise and beautiful sounded from all parts of the place. It was as if the person speaking was everywhere as he said those words, but I knew better.

"Yes, I'm here, now what?" I replied indifferently and coldly. I didn't want to show weakness in any way.

"Now you're either going to die infinitely or you're going to pass the test and be stronger. But tell me something first, do you want the hard and more power, or the easy and less power?"

This confused me a bit, somehow he is giving me options. It could mean a lot of things but most likely he doesn't want me to have that much power or he doesn't want me to die? Or maybe both.

"The greatest difficulty and the greatest power" I answered without a second's hesitation, even though I knew I had almost zero chance of surviving, I wasn't afraid of death, after all I don't even have memories.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, GOOD! Good, do your best, I want to see how you will overcome yourself" I couldn't hear everything correctly as my consciousness was slowly fading away, but those last words for some reason I could hear them clearly, I felt that those words had another meaning, a more hidden meaning.

It didn't take long for my consciousness to almost completely fade away... Why ALMOST? Because I could feel everything around me. It felt like space, reality, time and all the laws of the universe were distorted by the same darkness and not only it, but something else was influencing the rewritings of the laws.

Not much time passed for me here, but possibly weeks and even months had passed outside.

I didn't know why the need to rewrite time and reality itself, but most likely not even the universe could withstand the presence of a primordial, so she used her domain and modified it to be able to see me and give me the proof.... Or at least that was my theory.

'Uh, this is too much' I was in such a place, everything it affects in the rewriting of laws affects me, so the pain I was currently feeling was hellish, if I was conscious I would possibly have died by now.

He is used to my gravity, my time, my reality, etc, so such actions were modifying me as well.

The pain I felt was unimaginable, it felt like an eternity had passed, a thousand years, but then again, I didn't know exactly how long it had been. When the pain reached its peak, it slowly began to subside.

'Phew, my body is coming back and responding little by little ' I said to myself as I felt my eyes become less heavy and I could already move my fingers slightly.

It didn't take long for my eyes to open again and I was slowly getting up.

'Ahhh, finally' I thought when I finally stood up and looked around, I looked around for a few seconds, then floated my eyes to see again, but what I saw was real, something that left me completely in show.

"What the heck?!"
