The Journey Beyond The Absolute
A Completely Different Level!?
I utter the words with a calm demeanor, my voice steady despite the tension in the air, "Whos there?"
From the shadows, a girl emerges, her face partially obscured by an mask with a X symbol in the middle that adds an air of mystery to her presence. Her long blonde hair cascades down her back, glinting in the soft light, while she dons a sleek black jacket that contrasts starkly with the short skirt that clings to her form. Her striking blue eyes shine through the mask, piercing my very soul. The corners of her mouth twist into a sinister smile as she regards me with a dispassionate expression. "So, you are the pest that took out Lukajust as I expected. If my servants couldnt complete the job, I suppose I'll have to finish it myself."
As her words sink in, my eyes widen in recognition. No way can this cant be true shes the mastermind behind everything! But her appearance has changed so drastically since the last time I laid eyes on her.
With annoyance etched on her face, she cuts through my shock. "Youve blocked my path far too many times. Its time we settled the score between us." Before I can react, a swift motion has her positioned behind me.
"when did you!?" I stammer, my pulse racing. Compared to everyone else I've encountered in battle, she is on an entirely different level. The sheer speed and agility she commands render me helpless. What can I possibly do in the face of such a formidable opponent?
A small, cryptic smile dances on her lips as she whispers, "Goodbye, Ather." In a horrifying moment, she plunges her hand through my chest, her fingers curling around my heart, crushing it in an instant.
"What... not like this..." I manage to mutter weakly before collapsing to the ground, my body feeling lifeless as darkness envelopes me.
As the world fades to black, I contemplate my fate. So, this is what death feels like... it's so cold... A thought flits through my mind, perhaps this isnt so bad after all. Right, Elara? It feels as if I'm beginning to understand why you passed on with a smile you were at peace with yourself, knowing that I would continue living. Like hell, I would allow everything to end here! I havent brought you back yet! I muster every ounce of strength to bring myself to my knees, pushing against the overwhelming darkness.
The girl's eyes widen, filled with disbelief. "How is this possible? I know I killed you! How can you still fight!?"
"I will fight with everything I have left!" I declare with fiery determination burning in my eyes. "You have no idea what it means to sacrifice! If I don't take you down here and now, my promise to bring her back will amount to nothing!" I clutch my chest where my heart once was, feeling an willpower that fuels my resolve.
Her expression shifts from surprise to frustration, grappling with the realization that my sheer willpower is fueling my persistence. "Just die already, you ant!" she shouts, throwing a punch that sends me spiraling through an beyond absolute Infinite expanse within the realm of The Hyperpleroma.
"Dont you dare look down on me!" I retort with defiance, crashing hard onto The Omniarch Pleroma. I can feel the bones in my body shatter from her brutal blow, yet my determination keeps me upright. With a surge of strength, I throw a punch aimed at her face, breaking through an absolute infinite number of barriers within The Omniarch Pleroma.
The realm of the Omniarch Pleroma exists outside of time, space, and all governing principles, transcending the concepts of causality, impossibility, illogic, logic, both reality and non-reality, as well as non-dualism and dualism. It also is outside any Totality and any metapsychical and any ontological. Furthermore, the Omniarch Pleroma transcends the others in an incomparable way, and within it resides the Hyperpleroma, and is beyond any and all concepts.
"Just give up, Ather! Youre merely delaying the inevitable," she says with annoyance, raising her hands to block my punch effortlessly.
With unwavering resolve, I exclaim, "There's no way I will ever give up!" I drive my elbow into her gut with all the force I can muster.
With a twisted smile, she captures my elbow and pulls me sharply, delivering a punishing blow to my face, sending me hurtling through the infinite layers of The Omniarch Pleroma once more.
"I will defeat you!" I declare, fire igniting within my eyes. I clutch my bleeding nose momentarily, then gather my strength to stand. I leap toward her, executing a precision drop kick aimed straight for her face.
"You annoying worm! Just stay dead!" she retorts, ducking gracefully beneath my kick and countering with a brutal strike to my chin, sending me spiraling through countless layers of The Omniarch Pleroma yet again. She takes advantage of my disorientation, appearing behind me and unleashing a barrage of punches that obliterate an incomprehensibly vast number of realms."Why won't you die!?" she screams in frustration.
I breathe deeply, my voice calm yet resolute. "There's no way I will allow myself to die here!" I unleash a powerful kick, sending her rocketing away from me, through an infinite number of The Omniarch Pleroma.
"That's it!" she exclaims with irritation, emerging unaffected, she raises her arms high into the air as she begins to gather an enormous sphere of white energy, radiating intense power.
"It's time to end this!" I shout back, lifting my hands to form a massive ball of dark red and black energy, pulsating with potential.
In unison, we declare, "This is it!" Our colossal energies collide with cataclysmic force, resulting in an explosion that ripples through the fabric of existence, annihilating countless layers of the Omniarch Pleroma.
As the chaos subsides, I find myself sprawled on the ground, covered in blood and bruises. With great effort, I weakly turn to face her, only to be astonished by the fact that she is barely worse for wear, sporting only a few scratches. "It's over, Ather," she declares triumphantly before I collapse once more, succumbing to the darkness.
To be continued...
