Chapter 32 - Chapter 32 : The Avatar of time and space

The battlefield had finally fallen silent. The monstrous horde lay in ruins, and Shubhu—now fully awakened as Shiva, the God of Time and Space—stood amid the aftermath, his presence radiating a divine power far beyond anything he had ever known. The storm of chaos that had raged through his mind and his body was finally beginning to settle, but a new reality had dawned for him. He was no longer simply Shubhu. He was something far greater.

Tara, Kavi, and Ansh stood in stunned silence, their gazes fixed on him, feeling the weight of his transformation. The man they had known, the burdened and reluctant leader, had evolved into something incomprehensible, something godlike. His appearance was still the same, but his essence, his aura, was different. It was as though he had transcended time and space itself.

Tara was the first to speak, her voice trembling with awe, "It's because of you, Shiva… You did this. You've become something beyond human. You've changed the very flow of time and space."

Kavi, ever pragmatic, looked at Shiva with calculating eyes. "What you've done... it's not possible for an ordinary being. Your power now… it bends reality itself. You're no longer just a man. You are the God of Time and Space."

Ansh, who had always been the voice of reason, spoke softly but with certainty, "You've transcended your human form. Shiva, you are no longer bound by the rules of time. You are a being who controls the very fabric of the universe. You exist beyond time, beyond space."

Shiva stood there, absorbing their words. They called him Shiva, but was he truly that powerful being? The deity who controlled the flow of time, who could warp reality itself? The thought of it was overwhelming. The weight of their words was not lost on him, yet he could not ignore the strange sense of peace that had settled within him. He had crossed a line he could not return from—he was now Shiva, the deity of time and space.

Shiva – The God of Time and Space

No longer just a man, Shubhu had been transformed. He was no longer a scientist burdened by guilt, nor a simple avatar of time. Now, he was Shiva, the God who could control time, space, and reality itself. His very existence had become a force that could reshape the universe.

Tara's voice broke the silence. "Shiva, your power… it's overwhelming. You've changed the course of history, and now you have the power to do anything—destroy or rebuild it all. You control time, you control space. But what will you do with it?"

Kavi stepped forward, his voice filled with reverence. "The power you wield now… it's beyond comprehension. You can stop time, bend space, and create or erase worlds. But there's a responsibility that comes with this. You've ascended to something greater than even the gods."

Ansh, always calm but with a deep sense of understanding, added, "You have the ability to look into the future, alter the past, and move across dimensions. You are not just a god of time or space—you are both, and that makes you a force beyond all others."

Shiva's gaze turned inward as he pondered their words. The weight of his newfound identity pressed heavily upon him. He could bend time to his will, reverse events, even foresee what was to come. He was no longer just a part of the world—he was now a creator and destroyer of worlds. His power had no bounds.

The Burden of Power

As the realization of his divine role began to take root, Shiva knew that his powers came with an immense burden. Time and space were not to be manipulated lightly. Every action he took could ripple across realities, changing the fate of countless lives.

"I understand," Shiva said slowly, his voice echoing with the gravity of his words. "With this power, I can create new timelines, shift entire realities… But I also know the cost of such actions. Time is fragile, and space is vast. To meddle with either without care could unravel everything."

Tara, Kavi, and Ansh all looked at him, their expressions a mix of awe and concern. They knew that the man they had once called Shubhu was now something far beyond what they could comprehend. He wasn't just a protector anymore; he was the keeper of the flow of time and space itself.

"You are the only one who can balance this power, Shiva," Kavi said, his tone firm but respectful. "You must decide how to wield it. The fate of entire worlds could rest in your hands."

Ansh nodded, his voice calm but serious. "Every choice you make will affect the fabric of reality. You have the ability to undo mistakes, but you must also understand that some things are better left untouched. The balance between creation and destruction is delicate, Shiva. You must tread carefully."

The Path Ahead

Now, fully aware of his immense powers and the responsibilities they carried, Shiva knew that the journey ahead would be far from simple. He was not just a hero or a god; he was the very embodiment of time and space, a being who could alter the course of existence with a single thought. But how could he use such power wisely? Could he protect the world without breaking it apart?

"I know what I must do," Shiva said, his gaze focused and determined. "I can no longer act recklessly. I have the ability to bend time, to alter the flow of reality itself. But that power is a double-edged sword. I will learn to wield it with wisdom, not to destroy, but to protect and to create."

Tara stepped forward, her expression filled with both admiration and concern. "We are with you, Shiva. We'll face this path together. But remember, balance is the key. Without balance, all could be lost."

Shiva nodded solemnly. "I will keep the balance. Time and space will no longer be my chains, but my tools. I will not let the world fall into chaos."
