RE:BORN Zombie

The 8th being went on with his explanation as he poured knowledge on Victor at a pace that was almost too fast for him to keep track of. At the end of it all, the monster that appeared didn’t just happen out of coincidence, as Victor learnt that the 8th being was the one who let it there in order for Victor to kill and get a certain skill.

“So, you mean this new devour skill is the key?” Victor asked. Still, maintaining his stoic expression despite all the happenings and baffling knowledge opened up to him was another mystery.

“Not exactly, but it is an important part.”

After the 8th being was done with all he needed to let Victor know, he began activating some kind of skill or power that caused the gravity around that space to increase to an unbearable degree. Victor thought it affected only him initially, but when he saw the 8th being struggling to walk a bit himself, he knew it was all over. Just what kind of skill caused such effects though, Victor did not know. He would ask, but under such pressure, he couldn’t even talk.

The moment the 8th being reached some distance away from Victor and stretched out his hand pointing to Victor with his palm, it was as though the thing creating the effect of gravity was moved closer and closer to Victor until he was just barely able to hold on to his consciousness, then the effects of gravity all around disappeared.

Victor who had been weakened by the feat only managed to raise his head towards the 8th being, but before he could ask his question the 8th being moved closer to Victor’s lying body and placed a hand on his head before altering some words, and just like that burst slowly into little balls of light.

Victor was left in surprise at what just happened, and in an instant felt an overload through his entire body. Just like that, Victor didn’t even know when he lost consciousness and fainted on the spot.

Though he was in a subconscious state, Victor could feel the energy in his body, and a bit of his surroundings. It was more like he still had a bit of his consciousness but couldn’t interact with his surroundings.

For how long he had been out, Victor was unsure himself. It took some time before he regained himself, but once he did, he was very shocked to notice the changes.

..

Back in the world, while Victor was busy being unconscious, the world was undergoing an unforetold event, something more like an apocalypse, but with no monsters or demons taking over and roaming the earth and the inhabitants being forced to survive. No, they were facing one where they couldn’t do anything against.

Out of the heavens as it seemed, countless white chains extended unto the earth and began piercing the bodies of every living creature. There was no way to defend against it at all. Strong or weak, all were affected by this chain and hunted down no matter how much they planned to run from it. If they managed to escape one, another would get them shortly after.

The scene itself looked horrifying to watch, and no one had time to be a hero as they were all trying to save themselves.

Even the strongest people on earth could defend themselves against it. Veritas was quickly pierced by this chain before she could even fight back. It was probably because she overestimated herself and thought she would be able to defend against it. Unfortunately, that opportunity was not presented as once the chain touched her body and pierced it, that was the end. She fell to the ground with the chain through her mid section.

Lord Majek who was in the temple where he worshiped the statues of the gods praying was interrupted when a white chain came through his ceiling and went for his body. Unfortunately, he too was naïve and trusted too much in his strength, and did not care to move aside or attempt to avoid the chains. He soon fell to the ground after putting up some resistance for about five seconds. As his consciousness faded, all he could think of was the warning the gods gave him, maybe this was what they were talking about and not the invasion of other worldly people. There was no way to know for sure though, as he soon lost consciousness and that was it.

The same thing repeated itself all over the planet until every living thing was affected, monster or whatever. Dungeons also began closing at an astonishing rate all by themselves, and if someone was inside a dungeon, it would spit he or she out.

When the entire population of earth was taken by these mysterious chains, out of the oceans emerged even greater chains that spread all around the surface of the earth like great snakes and completely trapped the earth under them, so that if one was to look from space, they would see only a planet of white and strange terrains.

The world remained like this indefinitely, with no one to witness this phenomenon.

..

Back at an unknown place, with no knowledge of how long time had passed, Victor woke up from his slumber, as it seemed. Beside him however, was sitting a man, or more accurately, the figure of a man. Victor was confused for a moment, but he soon regained himself fully. He could only question who the man sitting next to his lying body was. As though sensing his thoughts, the man spoke up as he stood to his feet before helping Victor up to his feet also.

“I am the first being.” The man who stood more than 7 feet tall said.”

Victor was stuned for sure and really didn’t know how to take this information, but he was soon comforted and provided a stool to sit.

The first being went on to explain a lot of things to him about his current situation and the question everyone who reincarnates have. Why he was reincarnated.

Turned out it was all the first beings doing, even the system. As for a short version of the entire story, it was like so.

They who lived in this universe had always been there as long as they knew and remembered, that was until some other beings developed themselves out of nothing, which the beings found to be some kind of evolution that took place and living beings made of flesh and blood were born. The process was not so fast, it took thousands and millions of years, but they slowly watched these creatures advance through nothing to a great civilization.

Soon after, the beings, or more importantly, the first being, who was the first to form amongst all the great beings came upon a discovery. The fact that they were living inside a separate and independent universe while they were in theirs was something that when he found out about took him some time to fully comprehend and draw his conclusion.

With this information, he shared it with the rest of the great beings, and they all decided they would explore a way to see what lay beyond. The problem was, no matter how much they tried, there seemed to be no way for them to break through this universe they had found themselves in. Seeing this, and after trying for a million years, they all gave up, all but the first being.

Later, through vigorous research, the first being came to discover that there were actually other worlds apart from theirs that they could access, and these worlds corresponded to the number of great beings. Soon, they all decided to take each, one of these worlds (more like realms and universes).

However, the first being was not one to simply believe blindly in coincidence, so he continued probing. To him, it made no sense for them to be formed out of nothing in an already existing universe and exist in such unnatural ways and form. He had studied the race of creatures that had developed themselves until they became the major powers on their small planet, and that was proof enough for him.

Nothing could come out of nothing or by mere coincidence. Those creatures would not now claim that they were the ones who created the planet now, would they?

Through his digging, the first being found at last, the answer he had always wanted to see. Truly, there was a world that exists outside of the one they knew. The other worlds ruled by all the other great beings all existed with this other world.

With this knowledge, the first beings went to the other great beings to share his finding, but to his greatest surprise, the other beings rejected him and his knowledge. It was as though they had been corrupted. They had attached too much to the mini world they now had under them, and some even started to harbor thoughts of taking the worlds of their brothers.

Seeing this and after more failed attempts, the first being decided to give up on this. There was only one who was still sensible to him, and that was the 8th being. Seeing this, the first shared his thoughts with the eight, to which he agreed.

That was a plan for them to break out of this universe they had been trapped in, for the first truly believed that there was a higher power controlling this.

This plan however, was to collapse all the 9 world into each other and make them into one, then they would use a unique power to collapse the force keeping them in the universe they presently were in.

The plan was good, the only problem was that, immediately after collapsing the first world, the first being quickly found out that it would not be possible.

As though a supreme being had for seen this plan of his, they who were the supreme beings could not wield this power needed for them to break free from their cage, nor did the inhabitants of their worlds, this he knew after thorough checks.

Using the small window of opportunity after collapsing the first world, the first being was able to drag the essence of a being that lived outside the universe in the one he was trying so much to enter.

This was Victor.

Naturally, he was a great being and had precedence over this world, so he was also the one who created the system and gave it to Victor. He had calculated almost everything that would happen with Victor, from what dungeon to drop him in and what race to bring him back as and everything from there. There were some unforeseen things that happened, but ultimately it all was fine and fell in line with his plans.

Everything went on from there.

Victor, after hearing all this was a bit uncomfortable as he was merely a tool the entire time, but the first being still ensured him not to worry. He would retain autonomy of his actions and will. In fact, he was the one who would gain the most, as he would replace the great beings and become that itself, the greatest being. To sum it up, he would be the summation of all the great beings.

Victor felt that he had not much of a choice in the matter, so he naturally did not oppose this idea. It had come so far already, so there was no reason not to follow along.

‘And here I thought I came from the 4th world originally. Gullible.’

With that, the first being dissipated and entered Victor’s glabella (the spot between the eyes in the forehead).

Following this was an incredible feeling. Victor was not sure how much time passed, but he could tell the changes in his body.

When Victor came back to himself, the first being was no more. He was left standing in a totally white environment. Looking around, the system sounded in his head.

[THE ULTIMATE GOAL HAS BEEN MET]

[THE SYSTEM HAS NO MORE PURPOSE TO STAY IN EXISTENCE]

[–Absolute Order–

Whatever you speak is the order the universe follows. Everything bends to your will. Your words are absolute.

Rank: XXX]

After this, the system faded away. It’s use had finished.

..

Seeing this skill, Victor understood.

The first being and all other beings lived forever in him, so they would also experience the new world with him naturally. He wasn’t sure how himself, but he also understood.

When he returned to earth after all that was done, the world was no longer the one he knew. Everything was now the same as how he remembered his original earth to be, without no powers or awakened.

.

.

Quickly, a year went by and Victor decided that the time had come.

“I’ll be back in a while.” Victor said, as he put his arms into the coat that was held for him to wear.

“Your servant will wait for you.” Said Veritas.

Though she no longer had her powers and memories, she was still a vampire. The others that were under Victor’s legion all disappeared along with all under his legion.

Her personality had also changed a bit. She had become a bit more serious and not easily flattered or moved. Victor was ok with this, it made the nights even more fun, as he had to work the appetite. Even though Veritas liked to act as his made, the kind of relationship they had was clear.

..

“Before I officially begin, I will need some kind of army, but then again, they will do just fine.” Said, Victor.

At the same time, a portal opened somewhere in the desert. From it, came a vampire, Damien.

.

Sebastian and Damien returned to the vampire world to escape their fate. While there, the portal connecting both worlds eventually collapsed, and after many years, they found a way to create artificially, vampires, and these ones were able to birth new life, as they weren’t quite the same with real and original vampires. Sebastian died mysteriously after some hundreds of years, nearing a millennium, and Damien became the supreme ruler of the vampires. These new vampires no longer require blood, but they aren’t as strong as the originals, and their potential is also limited. Naturally, with the kind of being Victor had become, he could easily fix this.

.

After making the vampires into a suitable army, he was ready.

Victor brought himself to a desolate area in the south pole, where the end of the world is believed to be.

Then, he took out a golden key from thin air and held it in his hand. The key weighed easily several million tons, but to him, it was nothing. It was easy to say it weighed as much as a dying star. The key it self was around the height of a 12 year old child.

After the death of each being, a key drops, the reason there was no key when the eight died was because he wasn’t truly alive to begin with. Using the key and the skill Absolute Order, Victor ordered for a portal to open that lead to the gate of Glamelanesiansac, which was the gate of origin, the way the first being explained it.

Standing before the gate, Victor had to release his actual form AND WEILD HIS FULL POWER. Unleashing it, he visibly and quickly grew up to 8 feet.

Then he looked at the gate before him that had the only writing on it at the top

-ADONAI-

.

​ .

.

“Time to open the gate to a new world.”
