Chapter 889: A New Day, A New Beginning.
Victor opened his eyes and found himself floating in space between galaxies.
"This dream again..." he murmured. Even though he was in space, his voice still created echoes.
Victor's eyes turned to the countless galaxies around him. Some resembled the Milky Way, others were larger, some were dark galaxies, others more red.
"Usually, when I'm admiring this sight, he arrives..." Victor murmured, looking around for something.
"Here he is..." Victor spotted something inexplicable in the distance, blended with violet, red, and black colors, an existence that couldn't be described with mere words.
Thousands of eyes opened, eyes that seemed larger than galaxies, mouths that revealed a black hole when opened, immense tentacles that made entire galaxies vanish completely upon touch.
If Victor had to describe this Being, he would simply call it a cosmic horror.
"...." The creature seemed to utter something, but its words were incomprehensible. With just this gesture of speaking, space itself seemed to distort and shatter, and several galaxies in the distance simply evaporated from existence.
"Yeah, I know, my other self... Or should I say, my True Self?" He laughed lightly as he understood what the creature was saying.
He didn't know how long it took, but eventually, all the galaxies around him were consumed, and then the cosmic horror approached and consumed him, too. Far from feeling fear, Victor felt a comforting sensation, like being at home.
Victor's body began to distort and grow. Gradually, his Human Form disappeared, and his Dragon form emerged.
Slowly but surely, all the cosmic darkness from the monster began to enter his body. Throughout this process, Victor only felt peace and a sense of acceptance.
He had learned long ago that his Power should not be rejected or denied. He didn't know what he had Awakened within himself when he became a God, but he knew this Power was his, and nobody would take it from him.
Only he could have this Power, and only he could control it.
Acceptance.
Accept who you are, even with all your flaws. Only then can you progress towards a better future and find balance.
...
Victor opened his eyes in reality and found himself amidst the bodies of several women.
Feeling his body, he saw that his Divinity of Negativity and Beginning had progressed by only 1%.
'This is going to take millennia,' he thought as he got up, gently removing Violet, Ruby, and Sasha, who were sleeping and clinging to his body.
He yawned and stretched, making his body crack as he floated from the gigantic bed toward the door, hovering a few centimeters above the floor.
Due to his new body weight, only his bed could support his body, as it was made from the most resistant Divine Materials. After all, it had the incredibly difficult task of supporting the bodies of several Dragons.
Floating through the corridors with his arms crossed, wearing only black underwear, Victor didn't care about the state of his clothes. After all, he was the only man in this mansion... Wrong, he was the only man in this world.
As he floated through the corridors, he checked the state of his Divinities.
As expected, most of them were only in the initial stage, with the Divinity of Blood being the most progressed.
When Victor became a God, he finally understood what a 'Divine Concept' was.
Simply put, the Divine Body is a vessel, and in the Universe, there are various 'Laws'. What a God must do is learn more about these Laws that their Concepts associate with and apply these Laws within themselves.
Those who become Primordial Entities are those who take their Concept and merge with it, thus becoming a fundamental part of Creation,
A process that seemed simple at first glance but was incredibly complex.
This was especially the case for Divinities like Beginning or Negativity, which encompassed several other Divinities within them. It can even be said that the Concept of Positivity and Negativity is where all Divinities are derived from.
Except for the Concept of The End, which derives exclusively from the True Death that will restart the Universe at the end of Creation.
Victor thought that by becoming a God, he would understand this world more, but it turned out he was just na?ve. He was like a frog in a well, thinking that this was all there was.
"Baby Steps, Victor... Learning about a Divinity is not as simple as training." Despite saying these words, Victor found himself progressing smoothly in his Minor Divinities, especially the Yandere Divinity.
Since there were no other Gods with this Divinity, it can be said that along with his Blood Divinity, his Yandere Divinity was what he progressed the most in.
If other Gods heard what Victor thought, they would want to strangle this man. Of all the Gods out there, he was the one with the smoothest progress in his Divinities. He had barely Awakened as a God, and he was already progressing.
The reason for this? It was simple: no other God dared to hinder Victor's progress.
Just as Aphrodite did in the past to prevent any other Goddesses of Beauty from surpassing her in her Concept, the more knowledgeable Gods could hinder the progress of another God in a certain Concept.
The Gods related to the Concepts of Murder, Strength, Beauty, Revenge, Martial Honor, Home, Family, and Nature dared not hinder Victor's progress.
Starting with Beauty, the woman with the most advanced Concept in this area was Aphrodite, and she would strangle anyone who prevented her Husband from progressing in her own Concept.
The same applied to Revenge. Nemesis, the Greek Goddess of Revenge, who had the most influence on this Concept, was a faithful follower of Victor. Anyone who hindered his progress... Swift retribution would fall upon that Being.
The same went without saying about the Concept of Home. Hestia, as the one with the greatest Concept of Home, would not let anyone hinder Victor's progress.
For these reasons, it can be said that Victor's progression in his Divine Powers was smooth and complicated at the same time.
After all, the Concepts of Beginnings, Negativity, and Destruction were incredibly complex to progress.
Regarding Beginning and Negativity, it was understandable; they are very specific and rare Concepts.
Now, the issue of Destruction was different. Victor needed a better understanding of Destruction to progress in this Concept.
It was not as if Shiva or Kali were blocking his progress; he simply didn't understand the Concept enough.
Like Creation, Destruction was a very complex Divinity to understand.
"Ugh... This is giving me a headache." Instead of thinking about things he couldn't control right now, he decided to focus on The Meeting of Supernatural Beings that had occurred three days ago.
The meeting was short and straightforward. Victor simply declared his intentions to hasten an Alliance among all the Pantheons, a proposition that was widely accepted by all those present.
The Supernatural Beings of this Sector were finally setting aside their differences and uniting.
Victor's overwhelming existence was to blame for this. They had no choice but to unite when Victor spoke.
The moment he became a God of Beginning and Negativity, he was automatically classified as a very important God, even more important than a God-King.
The reason for this was that just as the Gods feared The Beasts of The Apocalypse for having the Concept of The End, they admired those who possessed the Concept of Beginnings.
A God who wielded the Concept of Beginnings could literally initiate anything successfully. He was the embodiment of the Beginning.
For example, if Victor decided to create an entirely new Race, one completely different from his Blood Dragon Species, due to his Divinity of Beginnings, he could do so, and this Race would be automatically accepted by The System.
As a God of Beginnings, he was essentially a God of Life, a God of The Continuation of Existence in The Universe, and The God of all Progenitors.
If he wished for it, Victor could kill all the Gods of the various Pantheons, all Supernatural Beings, and create everything anew because he is the Beginning of everything and also had access to Negativity.
Now, that is another outrageous Divinity. Essentially speaking, ALL DIVINITIES from the Negative Side of The Balance were under Victor's control.
And this gave him extreme control over the Spiritual Side and the Emotions of Beings.
Therefore, they had no choice but to accept. They didn't want to be exterminated and repopulated at Victor's whim.
Unconsciously, Victor was being treated as a Primordial Entity by these Gods, even though he wasn't one, but his level of authority was too great to be treated the same as a mere God.
Even Odin set aside his differences, saying, "I sacrificed my eye for wisdom, and I would be a fool to insist on my greed."
What greed was Odin talking about?
Of course, it was about the promise of Velnorah, a promise Victor did not know of yet but could imagine the possibilities.
After this meeting, Victor returned home to organize the mess that was his Faction. With his and his Wives' contributions, he organized his Faction into three blocks.
The first block was his personal world, where only his Wives and Family would stay.
The second block was the Egyptian Pantheon, where his most loyal allies of different Races, who were not Infernal Beings, would stay. Of course, Hell was also part of the second block, although this specific Dimension was located somewhere within Victor's Soul.
The third block consisted of bases scattered across Nightingale, Samar, and Earth. These places would serve as recruitment centers and embassies for his people.
In the future, when he found more planets, all of them would be added to block 3, and only the most loyal of individuals would go to block 2.
Speaking of Wives, on the second day, his Wives, who had been training in The Tower Of Nightmares, began to emerge.
And he was quite surprised by their growth.
Violet, Sasha, and Ruby practically went from the combat effectiveness of a Minor Combat God to a High-level Combat Focused God. In their Vampire Count Form, they could even fight against the strongest Gods like Thor, Ares, etc.
Witnessing this level of growth, a theory that their strength depended a lot on their Soul was confirmed by Victor.
The more potential the Soul had, the greater the heights of Power a Being could reach.
Victor was so happy that they all became stronger and met the conditions to become Dragons that he spent over 5 months pampering all of them in the bedroom.
Yes, he made one day last five months, all thanks to Natalia, who, due to Victor's Blessings, had her Lineage's Talent fully blossom.
"Alexios will be very surprised when he sees Natalia's Evolution," Victor laughed. He had no doubt that his Wife was now stronger than her own father.
Natalia now practically had infinite Energy since her Energy supplier was Victor. The only limit for Natalia was her own body, something Victor would correct in the near future when he understood more about the unique Lineage of the Alioth Clan.
The reason for this lack of understanding was that even with his senses, he couldn't 'completely' understand Natalia's Soul.
Despite being Human, she had the Soul of a God, but one without a Concept. Despite having a Soul with the quality of a God, her Soul was too fragile to be called a God's.
Natalia's Soul was an enigma for Victor, and as he valued his Wife's safety very much, he would do nothing until he was 100% sure it was safe.
"Hmm, the day of the girls' transformation into Dragons is marked for later... I will let them rest a bit and go speak with my visitors first."
Floating toward the area reserved for those who were not Victor's Wives, he began to see people, specifically maids from the Fulger, Snow, and Adrastella Clans. Even Fairies, Youkai Kitsune women, and chocolate-skinned Werewolves were seen.
The last two groups were specifically sent by Tasha, Maya, and Haruna.
Apparently, they were 'related' in some way to these women. With just one look, Victor saw that this statement was true.
They were close relatives of Tasha, Maya, and Haruna.
"Y-Your Majesty." The women blushed furiously when they saw Victor.
