26 Beginning of Creation! P1 (1/2)

In a certain region where time and space were in their infancy and there existed an endless darkness that extended beyond any conceivable distance, a massive pool of primordial chaos amassed.

The only light that could be witnessed was the odd flash that was released from the occasional clashes between various clusters of chaos. In a few hundred billion years after the primordial chaos had reached sufficient density, these small clashes could give birth to a brand new universe.

Ariel watched as the chaos rippled and swirled like a vast hurricane, her long platinum blonde hair floating like tentacles in the void.

This was the same location Lain had brought her to many years ago, her return could only mean one thing, she was ready to create her universe!

Beside Ariel were her four daughters, their grace and beauty were unparalleled.

Behind them, five more figures that were prostrating. Through various means, torturous and unique they came into being because of the woman in front of them, the very memory of this still filled them with fear. Brought here on her whim, they were still in the dark on what was happening and although they were curious, they dared not ask.

Grim gave a brief glance to the people beside him, the feeling they radiated felt similar to himself. [They must be the other chosen beings. What terrifying trials did they face?] He wondered in thought.

Turning his attention away from them he looked at the ring on his finger with gentle eyes. It was a ring he created himself and within it contained small space in which a piece of land identical to his past farm existed. His wife and son were currently spending their time together happily, catching up on lost time after being separated for so long.

Even though he was the god of death, that didn't limit his powers at all to the domain of just reaping lives. Creating a small livable space was child's play to him, the extents of his new abilities truly gave him a fright.

Grim's stomach rumbled. [I can't wait to go back home and eat Laura's delicious chicken dinner again.. ] He thought as a large smile appeared on his face.

Ariel took a deep breath and said. ”It's time.” Her headwings flapping in excitement.

Her daughters looked at her curiously. They hadn't seen their mother this enthusiastic for a while.

Ariel breathed in deeply as she closed her eyes, in her mind played a song her mother was most fond of.

Grim was observing Ariel with interest, ever since she had become still, the colossal mass of chaos in the distance had frozen in place.

As he was wondering what was happening, Ariel's lips moved and from them came loud legion of countless voices both male and female.

The haunting choir sung loudly reverberating throughout the void, their tones holy and divine.

Ariel began to wave her hands like a conductor guiding an orchestra as a huge swirling mass of chaos appeared in front of her. It surged violently as she weaved countless laws and concepts into the chaos making it thicker and more viscous. As it condensed into an infinitesimally small point as a result of both her voice and the movements of her hands, it flew into the palm of her hand.

Closing her hand into a fist, Ariel continued to sing louder and louder, the myriad of voices coming from her mouth directing their angelic powers upon the spec of chaos hidden within her palm.

Seconds pass and the choir of voices finally finished their song.

With a smile on her face, Ariel whispered. ”It's ready.. my little universe..”

Opening her hand like a blooming flower, the spec of chaos exploded into a brilliant light that illuminated the surrounding cosmos.

The light was so bright that it caused grim and the four other chosen to cover their eyes.

A sea of lights left Ariel's hand like an unending river, her robes fluttered from the incredible energies sprouting forth.

”It's so pretty.. ” Seris muttered with dazed eyes. Her other sisters were also entranced as they nodded their heads in agreement.
