'What... happened to me?' A logical thought from the future Damien Gray, the one who defied the established rules of Reality and of everything beyond as well.
For he had reincarnated back into the past, or rather, regressed..? Or perhaps, reborn? He could not tell the answer to that himself.
Reincarnation was starting up a new life, in a new world, with a new purpose. So it cannot be that. Regression was jumping back into the past, and redoing everything once more. It could be this, yet for some reason, he doubts he really jumped through time.
Especially so, as the time gods themselves, or those capable of embodying laws and personifying them, or those ascending through the laws, or even those beyond Reality... were aware of his descent.
Not even the Primordial Source itself, that was beyond even Supreme beings by origin, could tell that he was not from this... place. Hence its not regression. And it's definitely not a rebirth.
For a rebirth only applies when one is reborn at the exact same point they died. Yet he, was back at the past. The past of a completely different world, yet still the same. 'Perhaps it's all three at once? But then... if that is the case, what is keeping my memories active? My purpose? My being?' He thought of such a problem.
And the only answer he could arrive to at the moment was... his past life or future self ego.
As the ego of one who transcended Reality, could not be stopped by anything. Be it Reincarnation, Rebirth or Regression. Not even the current Damien himself, could go against such an ego.
And thus... instead of fighting it at this moment, he instead used it. He borrowed a hint if it's powered, and gained a bearing that was out of this world. A bearing of eldritch proportions, despite the great cost.
"So, are you willing to please me and answer my question, little will?" He added with a smile of mockery on his face. A smile stemming from his previous life's ego, and what the him of that time... thought about gods and their domains. 'Pitiful clowns. Unneeded illusions. Mistakes of existence.' And the answer was as such.
< ... >
The domain will remained quiet, and instead floated before him in silence. It felt pressure, immense pressure, but no killing intent, nor death intent. Hence it concluded that this creator of it, had no malicious intention towards It's existence. But then again...
< ...Please enlighten me of the purpose of my creation, creator. I shall hopefully oblige to your set ups>
It said as a response. Though it indeed felt no threat towards its existence, from Damien, it still felt threatened by his presence as a whole. Especially his void powers as the Void Embodiment.
"Very good." Damien responded with a nod, his void powers greatly decreasing. 'Normally, it would be hard to destroy a domain will, but it would be very easy to displace it into the Void. And as a Tier 1 domain, it would be swallowed by my Void powers that only noble gods and above can fight against.' He thought.
And it was indeed as such. Basically, he was more powerful than the domain will. Especially so, as it was still a newborn domain, and had no experience nor abilities within its vault.
"I've brought you into existence, for the sole purpose of aiding me elevate this entire region... into a land even gods would envy. A land I'd be proud of." He responded to its words, his smile retreating from his face, replaced by apathy once more.
< This region... into such a land? How so, creator? >
"Simple. Just allow yourself... to be basked in eternal glory of the Void." He said, his void powers resurfacing, but this time around without so much as a hint of pressure towards the domain will.
< ... >
And the domain will was lost for words, only staring at the burst of foreign power it had never come across. But the reason for its silence, was the fact that this power... felt at peace with its core, with its existence.
"Don't stress the matter. Your only purpose is to throw yourself into the void, and it will become one with you. Become one with the void, let the void become one with you." Damien said, extending his hand forward with a smile. A smile of assurance, "To conclude, become one with me."
He added, his eyes carrying an intoxicating glow within them. And unbeknownst to both of them, the Rune within his left eye, shimmered briefly before retreating back.
< ... >
Meanwhile, the domain will felt intoxicated. It did not understand how, or why, but it felt extremely attracted to the power of the Void that Damien summoned. Like a child, yearning the embrace of their mother.
And at some point... it flew into the sea of Void power, the bright light brighter than a sun, being instantly swallowed without any defiance. It was gone... just like that. The Void was just that swift and precise.
'That... was easy?' Damien frowned, wondering why the process was this simple. 'Though allowing myself to revel within my past ego, was an option, it wasn't my true ego, hence it shouldn't have worked this well. Then why..?'
Doubt rose as he thought, yet that was a matter for another time. Right now, he had to manage his Void powers and the domain will, as if not... the domain might end up obtaining them for itself. 'And that... would be a disaster for me and Romania.' He assessed.
At the same time, he controlled the amount of Void power that he was feeding to the now intoxicated domain will. At least, enough to give it high Affinity with the Void itself, but no mastery with the law.
Otherwise, that would be akin to giving away all his powers of the Void. His law attainments were still low, and could only be used by him alone at the moment. 'Distateful, but... I shall accept it as it is.'
The sphere of light representing the domain will silently floated within the Void. It's golden form being corrupted by wisps of black mist, that manifested as black spots on its perfect form.
< What... is this place? >
It thought amidst it's intoxication as well as its corruption. A feeling worse than being drunk, high and having a headache at the same time.
"This is the Void." Damien's voice echoed out around the domain will, like a lullaby. "It is also a portion of me. Or rather, I am considered an aspect of the Void itself." He added.
< The... Void..? >
It questioned, not understanding the new term itself. "Yes. You don't have to think much on the matter. Just allow yourself to bask in the eternal glory of the Void, and also become an aspect of it. Become a part of me." He said.
And following those words, the golden sphere of light was finally swallowed within the bundles of dark tsunamis, that took away half of its color, shading it completely black, then gray.
< ... >
The domain will remained quiet, as a part of its consciousness was stripped away, and replaced replaced yet another consciousness. Yet to it, both consciousness were one of the same entity... itself. Yet at the same time, it knew it was a part of another entity.
Damien.
And even he, was a part of an even greater entity altogether, the Void. It was a sort of hierarchy that allowed the will to broaden its knowledge and power on the world and of Reality.
BOOOM~!!
Power exploded out throughout the Void, as the sphere became half gold, and half gray in color, almost surpassing its own limits of being a Tier 1 Domain.
[ TING!!! ]
[ You've done an amazing achievement. You've broken through a limit no other mortal has ever dared to break, by corrupting and allowing a divine will to be a part of your consciousness ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ You've achieved greatness, by becoming one of the few mortals who have dared to play a divine entity through the strings of Fate, and the flow of Destiny itself ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ Congratulations!! The divine will assimilated with your consciousness and the power of the Void, have broken through its shackles and is one step away from achieving a breakthrough ]
[ You've obtained a hefty load of Life Essence for your various achievements. Half is sent towards your Bloodline. The other half is shared equally with your partner ]
"..."
Damien read through every notification and nodded after a thought. It was to be expected that he would break through the limits of common sense once again, but... 'Even this is not enough to satisfy my Bloodline?' He sighed.
His Ascendent Bloodline, that desired nothing but the acts of portraying Absolute!! And the power to break through Absolute Limits... was greatly unsatisfied. 'Another time, I guess.' He smiled, looking forward to the challenge.
At the same time, he waved his hand and transported the domain will back to physical realm, back to Romania.
