I.. Am God?

Chapter 220 Talks



He raised his hand and an image of two galaxies suddenly showed itself levitating on his palm, "The dark matter that this galaxy is facing against is a Chaotic Dark Matter, an existence that exists only to create without will.  One cannot defeat nor banish it because it is not alive. The only way to eliminate it is to fuse it together with the infected galaxy."

"But of course, such action requires an infinitesimal amount of energy. Therefore, we sought for a source of such immense energy, and we found one; Another galaxy."

When they heard it, a couple of people seated immediately protested. "Such a thing would harm us and that galaxy! Such actions are unacceptable!" A man who looked like Buddha objected.

"It would only do harm to everyone." Another who looked like a pope seconded.

But of course, some wanted to hear more about the plan. "It could potentially push our galaxy to greater heights and we can also benefit from this Chaotic Dark Matter, right? Isn't that what we all want?" Someone who looked like a cultivator stated.

"If sacrifices in the likes of that can bring our galaxy peace, order, and prosperity, then we should take it." Another cultivator whose looks were as cold as ice also said to them.

Asileius, who was behind the curtain, Paimon, and Gaius  just listened to their debates, and after it dispersed, did Asileius talk once more. "Can you elaborate on this plan of yours, Duke Paimon?"

Looking at the others who were looking at him with an expectant gaze, he continued, "The galaxy's energy is currently being gathered by our men and they should be arriving in this galaxy in about a decade's time. Once they arrive, through the assistance of every notable being in this galaxy, we would force the dark matter into the middle of the galaxy and slowly fuse it with its core, and we would need to reset the entire galaxy's material form into its infant state."

"What?!"

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked with the plan. Of course, considering that it was a reset that would destroy everything that their Lord has created. "We are totally against such a plan! It is just absurd!" The pope-like being yelled.

"I kind of agree with Seraph Alumen." Asileius said, "Such a plan would ruin everything that Master Matthias has achieved."

"Then would you let the entire galaxy be ruined?" Paimon narrowed his eyes as he gazed at them, "Although the Chaotic Dark Matter really isn't that much harmful to the galaxy it inhibits, it would certainly ruin it in the long run. Sooner or later, the inhabitants of this galaxy would be reduced to mindless creations of that entity. Would you like that to happen?"

"I suggested for the galaxy's reset to incorporate the matter to the galaxy, for the galaxy to digest the energy for it to become stronger. The reset wouldn't include separated realms and only the stars and planets and structure. If you want something to be excluded, bring it inside this domain and make sure that it is separated from the galaxy. It can also be a form of cleansing for the galaxy."

Because everyone objected, Gaius  backed his duke, "Whether you like it or not, it needs to be done." He then used the card that even Paimon didn't expect him to use, "It's because Matthias said so."

When they heard that, everyone immediately turned to him, "What?" They blurted out.

"When we talked through a dream connection, he told me that if there's a problem in the galaxy and I encountered it, I must do what needs to be done, even in the face of everyone's opposition." Gaius  said stoically, "So, whether everyone objects, the galaxy is to be restarted because it needs to be done."

After he spoke, everyone was silenced. No one could talk after what he had said. He basically said that he had the entire authority in this galaxy if it's in peril, and it is.

Jeremy and Sana, who was at the back, also had their mouths agape because of what they had heard. Asileius turned to them and looked at them questioningly. Although they weren't sure if Matthias did say that, they did know that Gaius  had a talk with him, so they could only nod, "He did had a talk with Matthias."

Now that it was confirmed, everyone faltered, their grips on their armchairs strengthened despite their weakness because of shock. After a while, Asileius could only sigh, "If that's what Master wills.."

"Lord Asileius!" The seated people exclaimed with indignance. "What can we do?! The clone of the Creator has spoken for him! What needs to be done must be done. This galaxy.. unfortunately needs some cleansing." After saying that, the sound of standing up was heard by everyone, and tapping sounds echoed.

Suddenly, it stopped. "Deities." Asileius called. As soon as he did so, everyone looked in his direction. "Gather at Matheon Palace. The Third Highest Supreme Council needs to be held early once more." The sound of tapping echoed once again after he said that sentence.

The space also warped gradually. Noticing that, the seated beings could only glare at Gaius  and Paimon before they also vanished. After they vanished Gaius , Paimon, Jeremy, and Sana soon followed.

When they reappeared outside, they remained silent. Minutes later, Jeremy spoke, "You should wait for those men of yours outside. The Council needs to talk."

Gaius  knew that such information as the galaxy reverting to its old state was too much for them, so he just nodded and signaled Paimon that they were living, and Paimon nodded.

Inside Gaius , he felt that he knew the intricacies of this realm, so he knew how to leave as if he was a native. He just thought of leaving and they immediately vanished inside God's Land and reappeared outside.

There, they could only wait for the men that Paimon ordered to retrieve the energy of the galaxy.

While they were waiting, the Council was being held. When the members heard the plan, they were immediately angered by the idea. They have connections and memories within those worlds, and all would just disappear because someone new said so?

Almost everyone immediately wanted to charge at them and eliminate Gaius  and Paimon, but it was stopped by Asileius. Such an idea was preposterous, considering that the man had some authority coming directly from the Master of the galaxy, and such an idea would just bring death to the challengers. Also, considering that he had Paimon with him, a being from the Abyssal Realm, going against him was just ridiculous.

Although they hated it, they could only stomach that hate and proceed with the order. They could only plan to bring their families inside God's Land while being protected by their energy once the process starts.

After the talks, the wait proceeded. Paimon taught Gaius  the common practices of the Abyss so that once he entered it, he could be easily trained by the Dukes. Gaius memorized every single one of the information as much as possible, so that he could rule efficiently.

For mortals, decades could already be considered a long enough time to spend life, but for beings of eternal life, such a time frame could only be considered a blink of an eye.

Gradually, nearly a century passed. Gaius and Paimon had already stopped talking and just "sat" cross-legged, floating in the nothingness of space. The deities have also returned to their normal lives, but the fear of the reset still haunts them.

Their preparations and plans have already been laid out, and they only await the decree. And, at last…

"Duke." From the far space, Gaius saw a platoon of demons numbered to fifty. When they arrived, they immediately sent a telepathic wave towards them, alerting them.

Paimon also noticed their presence long before they sent the message, "Here they are.." He muttered. Knowing that he would be facing his soon-to-be subjects, Gaius altered his form to his Demon Form and gazed at the incoming demond with an appropriate attitude of a ruler to his subjects.

When the demon platoon arrived in front of them, the demons immediately knelt on the non-existent ground towards them, "Greetings, Lord Duke of the East and Your Majesty." The demon in front with a bigger stature than the rest greeted with deference.

Gaius nodded slightly in acknowledgement. He glanced at Paimon questioningly, and Paimon answered, "This is the Demon General Talzesar under Duke Abaddon. I borrowed him from my fellow duke to assist us in this endeavor." He introduced.

"I apologize if I haven't introduced myself to you personally, Your Majesty." Talzesar stated blankly before standing up. Gaius' brows furrowed when he saw such disregard to his authority.

Of course, his dissatisfaction didn't go unnoticed. Paimon spoke for the demon general to quell his displeasure, "My prince, The demons, especially those of Duke Abaddon and Duke Abaddon himself, are inherently arrogant because they are powerful enough to be such. Duke Abaddon's men only answer to him because they are demons that focus entirely on chaos, disarray, and war. Although they would recognise your stature, they wouldn't entirely respect you just because. As I said before, you need to prove yourself."
