I.. Am God?-Chapter 221 The Hexatrix

"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."

Listening to Paimon, Gaius only nodded. He then glanced at Talzesar and asked indifferently, "So, are the things prepared?"

Talzesar nodded in response, "They are here." He then turned to the men behind him who were still on their knees and retrieved a hexagonal piece from them and presented it to him.

Gaius took the hexagonal piece and looked at it intently; a hexagonal blue metal that was hollow in the middle, where a bright cosmic ball of countless colors with immeasurable amount of energy radiating was contained within thin rune belts.

Paimon also looked at it with a smile on his face, "The Hexatrix. How long has it been since I have seen it leave Abaddon's hands?" He grinned.

"It was only due to your request that the Master approved lending it to His Majesty. If not?" He then scoffed, which earned him a glare from Paimon. Although Paimon accepts that not all demons would hold regard towards the new prince, he wouldn't accept blatant disrespect towards the new monarch of their domain because they would only become a laughingstock towards the other domains of the Abyss.

With the signal from Paimon, Talzesar could only stay silent. But still, the disrespect inside his heart remained. Seeing this, Gaius immediately pointed out a major problem that he would need to solve once he entered the Abyss.

But setting it aside with the pressing matters at hand, he turned to Paimon and stated, "We should tell them now." Paimon nodded.

Gaius then turned around and connected with the galaxy from inside him, calling upon the greatest figures of the galaxy.

The deities and sentinels who were going on with their lives peacefully, and were already happy, suddenly felt the call. Their faces all went grim, and those who were together looked at each other.

They all gathered towards Gaius and the eyes and glares of hatred were nowhere to be seen, with only reluctance, resignation, and hopelessness.

Gaius ran their gazes at them but felt nothing. What needs to be done for this galaxy must be done. If it's a reset, it would be a reset. For the betterment of the galaxy, he was sure that Matthias would've decided the same.

Knowing that there's no turning back, the beings of Matheon looked back at their precious galaxy.

When Jeremy first went out, he saw the grandness of the galaxy and the cosmic bodies. He saw the galactic civilization of Betania that amazed still to this day. He defended them and fought for them, but now, it would all go to waste.

Asileius, although he was already a being of space, still spent quality time inside the galaxy of his Master. Although that Master of his wasn't here, he still sighed in reminiscence.

Everyone felt different emotions of sadness and pity for the unknowing mortals that were about to be erased. They were already beings that have ascended mortality, so its shackles already had no effect on them, but seeing those who were still bound, they felt mixed emotions of pity and abhorrence to mortality.

Mortals are ignorant about the truth of the world. They have no clue that any second now would be their end. They abhorred mortality because it is weak and naive, but they also pity them for being so.

"Have you notified Matthias' descendants that the entire galaxy is ending?" Key asked Jeremy, who was beside him. "No, of course." Jeremy chuckled helplessly.

"What's the use of informing them of such a thing? It wouldn't save the galaxy, wouldn't it?" Jeremy sighed and looked at the distant place.

Gaius heard their conversation faintly. He secretly turned to Paimon and whispered something to him. Knowing what to do, Paimon nodded and ordered one of the demons behind him to do as he bids. The demon also nodded and did so.

Seeing that everyone was prepared, with the Hexatrix in his hands, he let it float in front of him as he opened his arms and conjured the faint authority from his soul as a clone who came from the creator's soul.

Suddenly, everyone felt a threatening pressure descend upon them as Gaius slowly transformed into a god. His aura changed as he slowly established connection with the galaxy, the authority, and space. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Gradually, several rifts in space that were light years in length appeared, surrounding the galaxy in their wake. At the same time, faint sounds of thunder could be heard everywhere reverberating, with the vibrations and deafening sounds reaching even to their position.

"Impossible.." Jeremy gasped in horror. He and the others were shocked to death when they heard the sound. They were in space, so there's hardly any sounds that could reverberate here. But those mysterious sounds of thunder echoed. That could only mean that it was so powerful, that space even rippled and became the medium that it shouldn't have the ability to!

The deities turned around, and there, they saw Gaius, his clothes and hair were flapping even when there was no air. His hands were extended wide as his eyes glowed white.

Slowly, the Hexatrix also shone, with the blue metal surrounding the cosmic energy slowly collapsing itself like a puzzle, therefore freeing the energy from its shackles.

If left unattended, that humongous energy would explode on them, and would cause even the demons to be annihilated in its wake. Of course, Gaius wouldn't let that happen. Although he wasn't a Creator God himself, his soul came from one. He had already simulated such a process inside the Dream Realm, although the energy was many times less than this. Still, he already had the gist of it.

He encapsulated the massive energy inside a sliver of will that he sent out and, slowly and carefully, he guided it above the Chaotic Dark Matter, which shocked everyone, even Paimon. "What are you doing, my prince?!" Paimon exclaimed.

"If my hypothesis is correct, then the results of this would be ten times greater for the future of the galaxy." He said with a little bit of difficulty. "What are you doing?!" Paimon asked with urgency and panic. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

They turned to the energy worriedly and became even more terrified. There, they saw the massive energy slowly expanding downwards, as if.. as if it wanted to devour the Dark Matter.

"You!" Paimon yelled angrily, "You're being reckless!" He exclaimed.

"If gambling is being reckless, then I am being one!" Gaius yelled before sending another command to his will. Immediately, the energy accelerated with expanding downwards and soon, it fully devoured the Chaotic Dark Matter.

"Are you insane?!" Paimon yelled, "If the Chaotic Dark Matter absorbed that amount of power, it would become nigh-undefeatable! Fully invincible even! It would also worsen the pests it would release!"

Hearing the demon, everyone had their eyes widened with anger as they glared with utmost wrath at Gaius, "We did not sign for this! We want Matheon to be saved, not erased from existence!"

In response to all the hate, Gaius rebutted, "If the energy instead was the one to rise victorious against the Dark Matter, it would instead gain the same ability as the Dark Matter but with order and will from the creator! Once I use it to mend the destruction and chaos in the galaxy, Matheon would ascend to another level of power!"

Although a lot of them still hate him, they could only back down, "Then, we hope that your plan works. If not, then we'd risk it all and kill you endlessly!" Asileius spat hatefully.

Paimon also looked at Gaius and sighed, "I hope that daringness of yours can achieve something. If not, then I wouldn't even bother bringing you to the Abyss and risk the domain's end because of you." He stated.

Faced with doubts, Gaius only persevered. Now that the Chaotic Dark Matter was inside the energy, he proceeded to assist the cosmic energy against the fight through his will.

He molded the shape of the energy like clay, and slowly incorporated the Dark Matter into the energy while also pushing the former to back down and ruin itself to succumb to the cosmic energy.

Hours later, they saw Gaius' sweat trickling down his cheeks as the Chaotic Dark Matter's unconscious will started to resist and counterattack against the combined aggression of the cosmic energy and his will.

The Dark Matter slowly became visible from the outside, showing signs of overpowering the energy.

Not wanting the ruination of Matheon, the other deities also helped out, sending sliver of their wills towards the Dark Matter and combating and suppressing it.
