Chapter 1053 God's Proposition

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Raum, the God of Space, revealed that he was not only the God in Vantrea but also the entire multiverse.

"I can control the space, and all dimensions just like the other Gods and Goddesses control their aspect of reality across the multiverse with a single thought.

Even if there was already a God of Death in a particular universe or reality… the one you met can easily intervene and take over them with no resistance." said Raum in a prideful tone.

"Wait… I remember that the God of Darkness once said that bringing my soul from earth consumed a lot of his powers and he can't do that for a thousand of years.

Isn't that contradictory to what you said?" asked and queried Kahn.

"So that's what he told you?

Take a hint… he obviously lied to you. I reckon it was because of the arrangement he made with the original Kahn Salvatore.

If the God of Darkness truly wants… he can become to only God of Death & Darkness in the entire multiverse by killing every single one of them in a mere moment… since he is their Creator." said Raum.

This revelation left Kahn gobsmacked again. [Looks like I have been undermining God of Darkness a lot because the original Kahn made things easier for me.] he thought to himself, recognizing his own impudence.

"It's just that those petty Gods from worlds similar to yours play that useless part for us, without even the knowledge that they are mere ants to us.

And we leave them alone because there are simply too many worlds, universes, and realities to even keep a count. It's akin to willingly inviting an everlasting headache for an eternity. We God's aren't that big of fools. So we leave these worlds as they are and focus on the most important one of them all… That is Vantrea." declared the God of Space in a thoughtful voice.

"So if Prime Ultimātus is destroyed…" asked Kahn as he realized…

"Yes, the entire multiverse itself will also be destroyed." replied Raum calmly.

Kahn then remembered what the Martial Emperor said…

'This is bigger than you and me. There are many things far more valuable than your own life at stake.

Killing the Demon God regardless of the cost… even if it means our death…

This is the only way to save this world… To save everything.'

Kahn finally understood what the original Kahn said. He wasn't talking about embracing his role as Hero of Darkness and playing his part in the war against the Demon God due to some sudden change in heart or some irrelevant reason.

The Martial Emperor wanted the current Kahn to prepare for the Great War because he was trying to save the entire Multiverse.

"Truth be told… I wanted to see you since the moment you achieved the 3rd enlightenment.

However, I have had my fair share of disappointments in the past hundreds of millions of years. Most never reach the 4th Enlightenment regardless of their talent or eagerness.

There have been only 7 beings who even achieved the 5th Enlightment themselves.

Only 1 could become a Demi-God, thus becoming the Deity of Cosmos.

Kahn asks…

"The Celestial Guardian that oversees the Conclave of Heroes?"

"Correct. When the Gods agreed to hold the Conclave of Heroes by creating their respective Peninsulas and Realms with their own Divine Essence.

However, Hesperides in itself is a different realm that can be accessed only through the gates that were created in each of the first empires that started serving Gods.

It's a triple layer of multiple dimensions that overlap each other. So the only one who could send himself as a Soul Projection and maintain these realms without all of them destroying each other was my retainer." said Raum as he divulged this secret.

Kahn understood why it was the Deity of Cosmos who took the role of the Celestial Guardian. Because other than God of Space, he was the only one eligible to protect and mandate the Conclave of Heroes; otherwise, these realms would have torn and eaten each other.

And the margin of error left behind was the Realm Tears that he used to travel between two different peninsulas. Otherwise, Kahn would not be alive at the moment had the Conclave of Heroes not been overseen by the Deity of Cosmos.

"And you have already met with the only Dragon ever to achieve the 5Enlightenmentent as well.

Kahn nods at the mention of Saalazaar, the Elder Dragon of Cosmos.

"He was one of the most interesting ones. Godbeasts, Dragons, and the other 3 Primordial Species have always been defiant of Gods and do not acknowledge us since they are the strongest beings of the mortal realm.

Hence, seeing a Royal Dragon, the one who was the strongest of his generation choosing to abolish his own element that he was born with just to learn and forge his own path by studying the space law… it was a remarkable experience." stated God of Space in a bemused tone.

Kahn nodded. That was the Elder Dragon of Cosmos that even the Martial Emperor respected.

"And he was prideful enough to bare his teeth at me when I summoned him to this dimension after he achieved the 5th Enlightenment." said God of Space in an amused tone.

"It is sad that he chose to erase his existence from the world and all the timelines just to send the original version of Kahn Salvatore in the past and change the fate of this new timeline.

I must admit… the current you is the result of the sacrifice made by Saalazaar and the original Kahn Salvatore. And they are the main reason why I sent my decree to my spokespersoMiyamotooto Musashi, instructing him to teach you.

Although you have the talent and free thinking to achieve it on your own, it would have taken you decades to even reach the 4th enlightenment.

Kahn agreed.

"Had it not been for Miyamoto Sensei, I think it would have taken me at least 30 years to gain the enlightenment."

Kahn felt no shame in giving credit where it was due.

"So why would go so far and why did you say that we're running out of time?"

God of Space spoke, his voice resounding and destroying thousands of planets and galaxies again…

"My initial plans were to offer you my help and turn you into the Acolyte of Cosmos." he divulged his plans.

"Is it different than an Apostle?"

"Yes. It would be no different than you abandoning your role as Hero of Darkness and becoming the new Hero of Space."

Kahn was shocked.

"You already have the potential and even the Dimensional Law divine ability that I created myself.

To be honest, on the merit alone… you have surpassed the necessary eligibility criterias even compared to the person I chose myself.

However… Considering what's about to happen soon…

The last thing I want is to go to war with God of Darkness when the end is so near." the God of Space revealed his intentions.

"The original you already planned a lot of things in the original timelines and arranged for your creations to become apostles as well.

Even I couldn't notice such drastic change in the timeline until the Conclave of Heroes was just 2 days away." spoke Raum in a firm voice.

"That was why I arranged my representatives to side with you and even aid you if necessary.

On top of it, you're already the Apostle of War." he iterated in a slightly pleased tone.

"Given the present situation, I can not extend any more help, some special class or powers to you. Otherwise, your soul would explode." stated the God of Space, revealing the main reason why he had to change his prior plans for Kahn after summoning him into this infinite space, a realm of his creation.

Kahn understood the God of Space's pragmatic reasoning.

His body was already hosting 3 Divine Abilities, 5 Blessings, 4 Gifts, 3 of which came from the Deities of Blacksmithing while becoming a Cosmic Aether entity.

If God of Space added anything else in the name of help… Kahn was most likely to go nuclear.

"So now that you have summoned me here and learned who I am… what are your plans with me?" asked Kahn in a curious tone.

God of Space made a small gesture and showed different versions of realities where the main focus was Elric. "After knowing your existence, I looked into your origin. And to be precise… there was nothing remarkable and even something unique about your life since the moment you were born." stated Raum.

"There are millions of you… all of whom have lived and died as Elric Johnson in their respective realities and timelines.

So I wondered what made you so special that God of Darkness chose you in the original timeline.

And I finally found the reason." he declared in a joyous voice.

"And what reason is that?" asked Kahn, his countenance turning serious as he felt an inevitable sense of threat.

"Every version has lived as Elric Johnson. Some of them have even traveled to different worlds.

However… there is only one who called himself Kahn Salvatore after coming to this world in the original timeline.

The reason… you should ask that to God of Darkness. It is not my responsibility to reveal." said Raum, the God of Space in a cryptic voice.

"However, in light of learning the truth… I have a proposition to make, now that all of the plans have no meaning left." spoke the God of Space in a sinister voice.

"What I want you, Hero of Darkness…" said God of Space as he revealed his new plan.

"Is to become my Vessel."
