Chapter 21 - Chapter 20 - How To Kill The One Who Lays The Foundation of Killing

Throughout time and space, there are these two beings who've been battling for years. Star-Gazer and Black Father. Star-Gazer is a rather angelic and beautiful being, humanoid with gorgeous eyes that gleam brightly, Black Father is a matte black octopus with glowing white dots for eyes. Black Father shoots black holes out of his genitals, meanwhile Star-Gazer manifests stars from his palms and feet. They exist as polar opposites, they fight over something that had happened forever ago. Something silly in fact. In the middle of their 2,318th battle, they feel a disturbance traveling across universes.

Black Father: Don't you want to see what that is?

Star-Gazer: It is quite troublesome and rather…scary.

Black Father: We'll call a tie…again…for now, let's just see what's taking place. It seems like there's some kind of demonic energy coursing through worlds.

Star-Gazer: Yeah, clearly. You wanna handle that or…?

Black Father: Me? You're the one of light here, you handle it!

Star-Gazer: Let's just handle it together. It can't be that bad, I mean, there's been a plethora of different corruptions among worlds!

Black Father: Very well. Let's do it.

They awkwardly shake on it, then they dash together towards where the source of the corruption is. They near Illalaki's Wonder, which had been rewritten, they see Monster leaving while in its strange form, like it became a floating piece of abstract art. Shifting oddly and changing forms and colors rapidly.

Black Father: There it is.

Star-Gazer: That is…something else entirely.

Then, Monster notices their presence and disappears.

Star-Gazer: It's gone!

Black Father: It shifted into the fifteenth dimension!

They shift as well. It's not there. They shift and explore realms and dimensions. All of a sudden it's like it had blinked out of all existence.

Star-Gazer: We entered millions of different dimensional worlds and we still can't find it.

Black Father: The Source.

Star-Gazer: What?

Black Father: That's what it is. The Source. Evil itself. We can't find it because it's gone somewhere that is beyond dimensions and—

Star-Gazer: Why hasn't anyone thought to just erase evil entirely?

Black Father: It may be evil itself, but its existence is not bound by its own concept. The fact it isn't gone by now is only proof that, whatever this thing is, it's just impossible to kill.

Star-Gazer: No way, there's gotta be somebody that's capable of killing "The Source" even if death doesn't apply to it!

Black Father: That won't work either.

Star-Gazer: So we're just done for then?

Black Father: No. There is still hope. Something's just telling me…that someone can defeat this abomination of all creation and non-creation.

Standing on what seems to be a flying purple shuriken, Hex travels to Monster, who is also The Source. His body is purple, his face is an X with two large slits for eyes. With him is Renekama, Blue Savior. Hex and Renakama leave behind a purple and blue trail, moving at high speeds.

Renakama: So this thing, The Source, is genuinely posing a threat to everything in Creation and Non-Creation?

Hex: Yes. There have been countless fighters trying to take it down, but it comes out on top, and based on its rate, I'd say it's been winning with ease!

Renakama: What could we even do? It took down my Ikizuma!

Hex: Hm? Your Ikizuma? Well, never mind that, we have to hurry! I'm not sure what we could do, but maybe we could at least damage it enough for the next people to come!

Renakama: Shouldn't we have some kind of backup?

Hex: Who do you have in mind to help?

Renakama: No one…

Hex: No worries, let's just go!

Noticeably so, there is a long trail of universes that have been corrupted and rewritten. Hex and Renakama travel outside of the main universes and look at them by looking to the side as if they were in a selection menu of a video game.

Renakama: I've…never seen something like this before…

Hex: This is my special little plane of existence, where we see the main universes as bubbles in an infinitely long row.

Renakama grips Hex's hand tighter, if she were to let go she'd fall into the universe they last stopped at.

Hex: Anyways, just by looking at this trail, we'd be able to find The Source with ease!

Monster: Unless he's right behind you.

Hex turns around with wide eyes.

Hex and Renakama: What?!

With a swift blow, Monster blows them away and into Main Universe 26. They land on a gigantic circular spacecraft. The whole spacecraft tilts from Hex and Renakama's collision into it. It is the size of a regular galaxy. Alarms go off which alert all the life forms on the craft. Monster aggressively dives into the craft, which shakes the entire thing. It stands up straight and smiles wickedly at Hex and Renakama. Its eyes were blank yet circular and wide and can drive anyone into madness by looking into it.

Hex: I've never felt an aura such as this! It may look like your average freak, but this guy is no joke!

Monster stood tall, a white muscular build with no clothing but no genitalia, no details besides its muscle definition and its terrifying face, its unending smile that literally reached up to where its lack of ears should be.

Hex: You're The Source, aren't you? That's what everyone who knows about you is calling you!

Monster: I'm aware.

Hex: You will pay for everything you've done, you hear me!?

Monster: I hear you, and I don't care.

Before time can even proceed, he throws a punch and smashes Hex deep into the craft's layers. Ships fly out of the craft and begin firing lasers at Monster. Renakama takes cover by taking a piece of the craft off and holding it over herself. Monster maneuvers past all of the lasers, jumping around and crushing the ships. Its mouth gapes wide enough to cover his whole body, nothing but Voidness. Within Monster's body is contained the essence of Voidness, which is a "space" in which absolutely nothing can exist at all. Monster then releases the essence on the ships, instantaneously they all disappear. It closes its mouth. From below rubble, Hex emerges dramatically. He looks around.

Hex: Oh no, Blue Savior! Where'd you go?!

Renakama: I'm right here, I'm taking cover!

Hex: From what?

Then Hex, Renakama, and Monster turn around to see trillions of ships coming towards them. They all shoot lasers, damaging the craft and causing explosions all around.

Hex: This is our chance to run!

Hex flies down and grabs Renakama, but then, Monster laughs. Monster reaches its hand out and clenches it into a fist, all of the ships slowly start becoming corrupted and rewritten into evil. Now all of the ships target Hex and Renakama. Monster kneels and proceeds to corrupt and rewrite the entire craft and everything and everyone on it. Hex and Renakama retreat, but the ships continue their pursuit. On one of the ships, Monster stands on it with arms crossed, still smiling, though it grows impatient, so erasing their current actions, it grabs Hex and Renakama and corrupt and rewrites them.

Monster: I am unstoppable. Go and corrupt and rewrite the rest of this infinite universe.

The ships fly around and spread Monster's evil, corrupting and rewriting everything within the universe they're in. The large spacecraft does so as well.

Monster: Ooh…there seems to be a pocket world within this universe.

Monster senses the pocket world within this universe, and simply by wanting to, it shifts into the pocket world to check it out. In this pocket world, there is no time, and the entire ground are countless tiny fragments. These fragments contain infinite hierarchies of worlds. Where Monster stands, the fragments below are white, but far ahead there's a darker shade, and as it goes on and on the fragments become darker shades until it's just blackness. Monster begins to walk. The darker shades transcend the lighter shades, so at the end the total blackness has infinite transcendence. Monster reaches the blackness, but then a figure of light manifests before it. Divine white hair like fire, black eyes with white iris', it's Seygah.

Monster: What might you be?

Seygah: I am me, no one and nothing else. You are in a fragment world, which exist in every main universe. There are infinite hierarchies here, and the array of main universes also makes up an absolute hierarchy, which is also infinite. Infinite sets of infinity.

Monster: So?

Seygah: …So?

Monster: All this infinity talk is pointless. I am above such a thing.

Seygah: As am I. Also, as scary as you look, you're quite easy to make conversation with, like you speak with noticeable humanity.

Monster: I've only spoken a few words.

Seygah: I know everything.

Monster: Do you?

Seygah: Yes. I also could easily erase you on all levels, physically, spiritually, conceptually, you name it.

Monster: So why won't you?

Seygah: I don't want to.

Monster: Why not?

Seygah: I want to see action, although I can create anything I want without limits, I prefer watching things play out without my influence, then interfering when necessary.

Monster: I don't care. I want to break you.

Seygah: Oh, well, you can't…so.

Monster lunges forward and tries to punch Seygah, but its fist goes straight through him.

Monster: Intangibility?

Seygah: Nah, I'm just too good.

Monster: Cocky.

Monster unleashes a barrage of punches which there's a different reaction, either its fist bounces off, goes through, lands and doesn't affect him, or automatically flies out of the way.

Monster: You're annoying, I'll just have to corrupt and rewrite you without any fun attached.

Seygah: You're a plague, a plague that threatens creation and non-creation. You are the reason why evil exists in any story. When a character becomes or encounters evil, that is just you in a different form.

Monster: A character? Is this some kind of game to you? A novel?

Seygah: Relax, when I refer to "characters," I refer to characters like Madoka, Sailor Moon, or Featherine.

Monster: Why did you name those specific "characters?"

Seygah: To let the ones behind the text understand where this web novel is at.

Monster: This novel?

Seygah: Forget it. I'm gonna let you go, so keep doing your thing. But be warned, you may be surprised when you shift back into the main universe.

Then, Seygah disappears. Monster stands there in the total blackness in silence, continuously smiling even if it isn't happy. It shifts back into the main universe only to encounter an entire army of fighters. There are exceptionally powerful beings, like Wukong, D. Spider, Yog-Sothoth, and more. Monster looks around, seeing that it is totally surrounded.

Monster: This…may be a problem.
