Chapter 199: Meeting Between Creators
Chapter 199: Meeting Between Creators
In the palace at the middle of the light of creation, in the garden wherein the "watch party" of the whole second elven undead war was held, two figures, one woman and one man is facing each other, the woman is looking at the man that almost looks like herself, except the male features, whilst the male figure is looking at the woman with a guilty expression evident on his face.
This are, by human terms "siblings" of cosmic proportions, two deities of creation of their respective universes, two of the few that have gained proper consciousness named Paraluman and Égérie respectively, names that are not given to them, but rather names that the two creators called themselves... well, you created the universe, you get to decided whatever the hell you want to call yourself.
"Those... might be one of my living species... Paraluman."
Égérie muttered, just a moment ago, his "sister", Paraluman sent a message for the millions of creators, asking who in the world snuck some of their creations in her planet that is in the verge of destruction, well, as it turns out, the creators who have gained consciousness can be counted in one hand. He was the guilty one, so he was compelled to explain himself.
"You see, while I was wandering around my universe with my newly gained consciousness, that is, just like you, is caused by the sudden spawning of this thing called life in my world, and just like you, I have decided to have an experiment... you see, in what the humans of this universe calls "black holes", there exist planets that revolves, or inches closer around them, of course, as their extreme conditions implies, life can't prosper in such a world... but, statistically speaking, if you look 5 trillion times, a "blanet" as your living beings calls them, you are bound to see one that can support life for at least a decade... so, the curious creator that I am, I turned off my 3 omnies and then injected living beings in their..."
The creator of another, unknown universe, Égérie spoke, regret etched in his tone.
"At that time, my only curiosity is how they will extend the life of their planet and is yet to learn about the instinctive greed of living beings, instead of their planet, they have decided to save themselves, and only when I reopened my 3 omnies did I realized that they have already penetrated your universe and ultimately, one of your planets... in response, I can only make them lose all of their affinity in a very advanced form of space magic that only us can understand."
Paraluman nodded at this, indeed, even her children or her future "husband" Sophia can't destroy it in one go, she's confident that the future goddess of space and time (if she succeeded in destroying the time loop) can discern how does this bizarre space can be destroyed Paraluman can ruin it now even though she has been significantly weakened, but such a thing is not part of the time loop and when the time loop was successfully ended, she will immediately become a mortal and Sophia will have another thing to fix.
Such an arrangement is unacceptable.
"We... will not be the ones that would fix this."
Paraluman said, her stance clear, of course the creator of another universe knew of this stance as it was an acceptable response, he nodded and then suddenly produced a deck of 22 cards, small for a deck, but in their wake is a mysterious and ominous feeling that even the two creators can feel.
"This is where I sealed their method... well, with your circumstances, you can help your hero postulate a plan and make her study their space magic..."
Paraluman was confused as she saw the beginning figure of the deck of cards, it was a man with neck length hair, holding a stick with a big piece of cloth on it, seemingly his luggage, the man wears a noble robe, yet he is not in a palace but instead in a cliff, looking at the new and unseen horizon.
If Sophia is to see this, she will identify it as the Fool Card of the major arcana deck of the tarot cards.
"Why the Tarot Cards?"

The sun slowly started to hung down, making the day of the end of the second elven undead war, to reach it's end, however, no remaining nations of Genesis have any intentions to stop moving their soldiers, whether if it's because of coercion or because of sudden activity from hundred of years' seemingly slumbering, Valentine, Kamatayan, Apolaki, Mayari and Urduja have started to move their forces to invade or support who they wanted to conquer or assist in their conquest.
In the city of the living of the undead Queendom of Kamatayan, an entourage of human knights and mages are outside the walls, two soldiers, one goblin, one monkey is on top, looking at them with inquisitive gaze, though of course, the solemn air inside Bulawan is evident of their awareness of today's matter.
"We, the soldiers of Urduja, are here to join with our allies, the monster army of Kamatayan."
The leader of the knights said, and as he did, the gates of Bulawan opened, and in front of it are imposing figures, 1 female goblin, 1 female monkey and 2 male monkeys, riding on wolves as the wolf cavalry, followed by the goat cavalry and then the archers and the foot soldiers, departed the insides of the walls with discipline, the knights were awestruck, but did not forget their job, immediately, they started to march towards Mayari.
For the knights, it's just another war, it might be a tight schedule, but it's another day to serve their queen, however, for the monsters, it's different, their blood is boiling and their aura were emanating, as if wanting to make their enemies' blood break free from their body, for their queen, one last time.
And indeed, for their sake, their queen decided to offer them to her ally.
Understandable, and because it's understandable, they vowed, for the last time, to prove why their queen didn't let them perish all this time.
Strangely, though, Bakunawa, the strongest living being present in Bulawan right now, is not present in this march.
Such were the monster soldiers' thoughts, their focus, maybe that's why they never noticed a shadow shuttling through their ranks.
Sisa, the second layer of assurance of Sophia regarding the matter of the living soldiers, will also join the war.

Military headquarters of Kamatayan, in what is called as a "Nuclear reactor facility" despite the absence of any nuclear based energy in Kamatayan, well, as Sophia have said, they don't have any use of such energy if they have the Planck, the highest possible energy output that fuels even time and the creator themselves, even the facility, is in fact not a reactor but more of a power plant with a single power generator, it looks bizarre, there was even no water source, turbine or magnets that creates alternating currents, just a single, gigantic diamond shaped structure with numerous thick wires made out of processed magic metals distributing it's perpetually absorbing energy to the whole queendom.
The military physicists, the first batch personally cultivated by the queen of the nation of undead were constantly monitoring the condition of the arc reactor, the most prized yet also the most volatile creation of their queen, for one slight mistake and one slight missed readjustment will cause not just Kamatayan, but the whole world to be destroyed.
Or at least, that's what their lady have said, such is also a reason why, even though the arc reactor is originally intended as a bomb by Sophia in her previous life, there is currently only one that is officially created and legally supplies energy to all of Kamatayan, it serves as the generator of energy, and the bomb that Sophia shall use in the future, in a war that needed world destroying capabilities, but even then, a very strict protocol is followed, no military personnel lower than the commander general or doesn't have the title of both Head Strategist and General Commander can approve of it's use.
That means Bakunawa and Eleanor themselves can't sign a letter to use the Planck bomb, and only Sophia's signature and seal, at the same time, can permit the unplugging of the stabilizing cables of the arc reactor.
Yes, even Sophia herself, if she didn't sealed it with her stamp, will have her own signature be considered null and void, not only that, the letter should be hand written by Sophia herself, and by handwritten, that means the penmanship will of course have to be ugly, this is something that Sophia did to ensure the responsible use of this world destroying bomb, something Sophia derived from her past mistake, when she was nothing but a desperate for attention innocent boy with a brain of a million insights.
Finally, if all of these aspects did not pass, meaning if somehow, Sophia's penmanship, signature and seal has been forged, the reactor will be immediately alarmed, and by then all soldiers are ordered a search and destroy operation, and the undead that they are, they will literally stop at nothing to find the forger, if they failed despite that, Sophia and her harem will move.
Seeing the arrangement of their rather carefree queen, the living and the dead knew that this generator is not ordinary, as it can instill such a tight security and protection, making the citizens instinctively wish that the day the queen will use it will never come, though, with the current trend of Genesis, such a wish is bound to fail.
And indeed, today, in this hour, a letter delivered by a soldier was examined by the head scientist of the reactor, who has a solemn face.
All of the requirements for the command of the bomb's activation have been met, for in the letter, a direct command from the queen of the undeads to use the Planck bomb arrived.
"60 seconds after the destruction of Thanatos' seal, the world shall be deflowered of the Planck bomb's might."

In the kitchen of the house of Wokung and Sipnayan, Bakunawa is sitting on the counter, eating a rice cake made out of sticky rice mixed with caramelized brown sugar with toasted coconut flesh as toppings.
Bakunawa intentionally chose not to march with the living soldiers as that would make them apprehensive and realize that Sophia has arrangement to make sure that they will not commit suicide, instead, she opted to wait for Sophia's orders, also she waited for Sophia to fulfill her promise of a satisfying battle, while eating, Bakunawa can't help but mutter.
_Sophia didn't change form after her fight against Aerendil... which is such a downer because over time she does, she will always look hotter than the previous form of hers..._
While eating, Bakunawa can't help but muse, well, Sophia sure got someone who objectifies her like how she objectifies others, and just as Bakunawa was sighing, imagining the fight between her and the promised one by Sophia and the "fight" between her and Sophia herself after the war, she heard a voice resound on her head.
"Intercept the Minokawa of Apolaki."
Hearing this, Bakunawa grinned and started to eat the rice cake more vigorously.

Royal Capital of Valentine, royal palace of the Darkbringer siblings, underground dungeon.
Arachne, with a face full of restrained despair, is slowly moving through the complicated corridor of the prison; she dared not use her [Continental Omnipresence] in fear of triggering the effects of the enslavement spell of the accursed woman, Sophia.
All this while, she has been brainstorming with her other selves on how to remove the enslavement spell of the lady of the undeads; however, the only one who can do such a thing is Loki Darkbringer, and her aunt, Eris, is busy these days.
Her only solution is to rely on her body and try her best to seduce Sophia, but Sophia is a master of illusions, if she really did that, the enslavement spell will really get removed, but she will surely get ensnared by the skillful machinations of the fingers and tongue of Sophia, making her days as a free woman truly be over, it was even a wonder why Sophia didn't had a wife grabbing spree with all of her abilities, both competence in public and in private to be above average, Arachne even suspected that if Sophia is a man, her lower head will also become way above average.
In any case, Arachne is not in a dilemma; she in a one-way road towards death that she can only prolong by compliantly walking through the arrangement.
After a while of transversing, she finally found her destination, in a certain cell detained a woman of heavenly beauty, her hair as golden as the sun with her eyes complimenting such splendor with the same color, her attire, a filipiniana caused a part of her enormous cleavage and child bearing thighs to spill out, surely, anyone who can see this will have sinful thoughts on them, but somehow, only her gown was tattered, as if only one failed attempt was carried on.
Indeed, such an attempt was blocked by Arachne, because Eleanor's plight is the trigger of her death, the spider woman looked at the beauty with contempt, yet she didn't dare say anything, she opened her mouth and, using her fingers gouged out a key and then threw it in the face of Eleanor.
Yet Eleanor smiled, twisted her hands that were bound behind her back, and then caught them with one hand.
"Thanks, Arachne."
Eleanor smiled, seems genuine, is genuine, but Arachne's anger and despair only became more evident in her otherwise beautiful face.
Such is Arachne's fate.
