Chapter 1052 Birth of the Gods The God of Space suddenly revealed Vantrea's original name, the Prime Ultimātus. The God's voice carried a hint of mystery as he continued… "By now, you must have realized that your planet, Earth, is a variant of Vantrea. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 But it's not the only one." he iterated. "Yes, I am aware. And if not wrong… our Earth is called by that name because of the existence of God of Earth in Vantrea." said Kahn, expressing his hypothesis. "Yes. It is one of the many things that takes after Vantrea. But that's not all of it. There exist realities where Earth is just the same, but also has Gods just like many religions that exist on Vantrea as well as the ones on those various variants of Earth." expressed Raum. "So the Gods in various religions and mythologies are real on some versions of Earth?" asked Kahn. "Yes. Not only that but even those versions of Earths have multiple realities where the world either thrives due to the existence of Gods or is destroyed by those very beings you humans worship. The number of parallel realities keeps branching from each version of earths, creating different versions of each other infinitely." explained the God of Space. "However… in the end, all those versions of earth and millions of other worlds, that also have their own branches of realities; are in the end… a mere and cheap imitations of Vantrea." declared the God of Space. "Like I said before… this world is the First and the Last. Vantrea is the source of the Multiverse, all realities, timelines, and laws of existence. And that is why we Gods called it Prime Ultimātus, the peak, and the ultimate existence as well as the origin of them all." spoke the God of Space in a stern tone. Shatter! Crumble! Even now, he didn't care when his words were destroying thousands of planets with unimaginable numbers of lifeforms in them. Shudder! Kahn was simply shaken to his core and almost shivered in fear, imagining if one of those worlds was the Earth he came from. On one side, the God of Space talked about saving Vantrea but on the other side, just his words transmitted to Kahn were destroying universes. Yet, Raum showed no sense of care or tried to circumvent it. Watching his aghast countenance, Raum spoke in a domineering tone. "Do not worry. Those universes and realities were meant to be destroyed. It's not yours or my responsibility to save or look after them. They are the ones with a 'Bad Ending'. " he explained in a disinterested voice. Raum then continued in a stern tone as he spoke… "All gods came from Prime Ultimātus after it created us in order to evolve its own existence. Prime Ultimātus existed before the Time itself. But to put parameters on the span of its evolution, it created the concept and laws of Time, thus giving birth to its first sentient form… the God of Time. The time had to flow and be finite over something that it occupied. Otherwise, there would be no use of Time itself. So Prime Ultimātus created me, the God of Space. Once it settled down and formed itself into a planet, it wanted to create life… But what is life but an eternal existence with no end? So before the first life came to be in this world, it created the Law of Death." revealed the God of Space, making a shocking revelation so casually. "The God of Darkness." responded Kahn. God of Space responded calmly… "He represented not only Death but also the Darkness of the void with no time, space, life or light. Thus he became the first among the Gods to represent two aspects of reality. And once the concept of Death was established, Prime Ultimātus started the creation of this world. Then came the God of Life, followed by the God of Sentience. The lifeforms then needed to make sense and utilize the Life and Sentience they gained. Thus, was born the Goddess of Knowledge." declared Raum, sharing the order of the birth of Gods themselves. "One after another, the manifestations of reality were birthed by Prime Ultimātus. Hence, we also have the God of Nature, Light, Lightning, Sea, Fire, and Earth. There's also the Goddess of Wind." He then explained how Gods were created by one after another billions of years ago by Prime Ultimātus. "However, the Prime Ultimātus of the past was such a terrifying existence these laws it created and manifested in the form of us Gods… their reach exceeded far beyond its own expectations. Even us Gods, the beings with the highest authority in those aspects and laws of realities, could only watch as new realities, universe, timelines and variants of them kept increasing every single moment." revealed the God of Space. [This is… so fucking absurd and unfathomable!] thought Kahn to himself. "So it created some sort of uncontrollable chain reaction, the one with no end as it keeps creating new worlds, universes, timelines, and realities?" he asked with a petrified countenance. To his quivering voice, Raum replied… "Yes. And that is why, we Gods had to act. We were like dutiful children of a mother who had nothing but absolute loyalty and instinct to protect their parent. However… the more out of bounds Prime Ultimātus became… the more destruction and chaos it followed in all those realities and timelines. In the end, we all broke free and started siphoning its powers through the very laws and aspects of reality we were created from." explained the God of Space. "There was a time when all of us wanted nothing more than to stop this incessant creation and destruction cycle of billions of worlds, timelines, and realities. We all have spent hundreds of billions of years in maintaining that balance. And by siphoning Prime Ultimātus' unending and infinite powers… let's just say that all the gods aren't just limited to Vantrea. I alone for example, am not just the God of Space in Vantrea." stated the God of Space and took a long pause. "I am the God of Space of the entire Multiverse."
