Luke opened his eyes.
The which was in front of him, made his mouth open in shock.
" Fascinating isn't it?"
He turned his head to his side only to see his beautiful goddess waifu, Nyx. She was in her usual attire; dark black revealing dress and wearing a black crown over her white hair.
" Nyx? Where am I? And why are you here?"
" Well, what should I say? You have quite the luck. Getting awakened just after a few hours becoming a god. Boy, if anyone knows about this, you will be dead!"
" But, I died few times though?"
" I mean the 'real' death. The death of a god where his soul existence will just disappear from the universe."
" Ah"
" As for where are you now, it's the origin. The origin of everything."
" Origin of everything?"
" Yeah, literally everything. Some call it as the creator. The only difference of this and a creator is, creator has a consciousness. But this thing here, doesn't have it. So, that means protecting and maintaining its purpose has to be done by someone."
" And let me guess, this someone is you?"
" Yeah, even though I can't come here, protecting it became my responsibility."
" You can't come here? Then who are you?"
" Fool, this is just a reflection of my mind. Nothing physical come can here. Even you are also just a thought of your mind. You are never really here."
" I don't get it but you are saying there is no one protecting this, if it is so important as you said?"
" Not at all! There is a legend about a owner of this place or something. Huh? Really? What was that again?... Anyway I can't remember it now, but somehow my name is also got involved in this 'rumour' even though I don't know how I was got involved in this. But one thing for sure, even my mother hid it from me, after hearing this. I think Erobos knew it too, but he didn't even give me a hint about that! What a bastard!"
" Can we please not talk about him?"
Nyx, looked at his face as if she had heard the most weirdest thing in the world.
" Alright, enough of bullshit, let's get into our business here, shall we?"
" Hmm what should I do?"
" Just walk forward until you hit some kind of invisible barrier and you will suddenly tossed away and then you will wake up with a new body with your own new power. Now go."
Without giving me any time to think she grabbed me from my shoulder and threw me towards star clashing area.
Wait a minute. What is this star clashing area?
Yeah, Luke described it as the star clashing area. He was right and wrong. It was the place, where everything got clashed and ultimately made a new thing. So, not only stars, but also galaxies, planets, black holes and every other shit even the author himself doesn't know clashed to make new galaxies and new stars and planets. This was the place where everything begins and also more importantly ends. This is the law of balance. Everything in the entire universe is under the power of balance. Balance can never be broken.
While on the way flying towards the so called invisible barrier, he closed his eyes to get ready to be tossed away. ' It would happen anytime now' that was the only thought he had in his mind right now. He kept his eyes closed while thinking this for a few minutes but nothing happened.
' Huh? She didn't tell me it would take time, right? What's happening?'
Out of curiosity he opened his eyes slowly and at the same time his heart stopped beating.
First, he noticed that he had stopped moving and he saw the so called 'invisible' barrier. Even though he had hit the barrier he wasn't thrown away. And then he saw Nyx looking at him astonished, her mouth almost dropped to the ground. And the horrible thing was he was in the middle of a crash between two unknown galaxies! Big planets were destroyed along with the stars, everything was getting destroyed around him. No it wasn't destruction. It's just deletion. When two stars clashed each other there was nothing left after the collision. Same applied for the clashes between two stars!
Luke, watched the entire two galaxies colliding and getting deleted. In the end there was nothing remained. No, there was something remaining.
Curiosity, made him move towards that remaining object. He didn't know why he was acting like this, but he felt like he was getting the answer to his life long question which tortured him in his whole life!
He walked to the small white coloured ball which remained floating after the clash. He slowly touched the ball and a surge of unknown energy crashed into him.
He screamed out of fear, until he felt that he was feeling nothing painful because of that mysterious energy. Instead of pain, he felt warm as if he had once again got together with this most trusted friend. He felt as if he was full again. That nostalgic feeling overwhelmed him.
He closed his eyes and soon images after image crossed over his mind. He saw everything in the universe. He began to feel as if he was everywhere. If a normal person, went through the same situation like him, Luke was sure that person would go crazy in just few seconds. It was that much overbearing. Information after information loaded into his soul. He saw every living being and every inanimate object in the entire universe.
Nyx screamed, " You fool! What the fuck are you doing there? Do you like touching balls, that much? Come back already!"
But for some reason, she noticed, he didn't here anything she was screaming. And also she understood interfering his activity would not do any good to him. That's the experience she accumulated as one of the oldest gods in the universe.
' Let's just wait for now. If something happens, I will break this damn barrier and bring him back. You can't just play with my husband! Huh? Wait.. why am I so worked up with his safety. What do I have to do with that fool. Nyx.. what the fuck are you thinking, bitch? Calm down, okay calm down.'
Just when she was trying to calm herself from her 'unnecessary' or 'stupid' thoughts, she saw Luke getting covered by some strange white energy. To her surprise, she felt that power had no animosity with Luke indeed. It was as if it was trying its best to make him comfortable.
Suddenly a divinely beautiful woman in white dress with dark hair, appeared in front of Nyx.
" I am the origin. The birth and the death of the universe. I want to declare, Luke Whitestone has become my owner, master, parent and mentor. I hope the Lady of the Night, the keeper of the balance will support him wholeheartedly on his path to succeed his mission."
With that the female figurine disappeared leaving an astonished Nyx alone.
Cough Cough
Luke woke up.
He slowly got up and looked around.
' Hmm, so I got resurrected in the place I died, huh?'
He was at the entrance of the tower. But it wasn't the same tower he entered before. The Dystopian team, the world's top hunter team had showed their power to the tower. The earlier 13 floor magnificent tower had been reduced to a pile of bricks and wood. His wife's statue, had been ruined. The flawless white and glistening statue was discoloured with burnt marks which were made using divine power. There were so many stab marks on the statue which were probably made by the Spear of Justice.
Luke, clenched his fists. 'You fuckers and your fucking gods, I swear I will use you as target practices for my kids with Nyx. Then I will let you feel everything you did to this statue. I think it is balanced, right?'
Meanwhile Nyx;
" Swoosh" She sneezed loudly and roared" Who the fuck is talking behind my back, huh?"
Luke noticed that he wasn't wearing any clothes right now. And in a moment a dark army uniform with golden belts appeared on him. The uniform contained a long sleeved upper coat with golden belts, and badges and a trouser with white coloured strips. He was wearing boots and its garments were also made of gold.
And also he was wearing a peaked cap, with a peculiar logo attached on it. The logo was crafted in pure gold, and it contained a triangle with symbol of eternity in it.
" Hmm, all good now shall we get going?"
He readjusted his cap and smiled before leaving. The immature young man with burning blood, previous Luke was no more in this world. But the God of Eternity was there. The god of origin was there. The god of birth and death was there.
The reason was his power. This was the birth of a dragon king among dragons.
Who knew there was a person who was capable enough to subdue and defeat all the gods out there?
