The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance

The two stood side to side, and within an instant, appeared before each other, a staff and a fist meeting each other at center with might and power.

No sound occurred, but an illusive shock wave spread out, and shattered the unique space they found themselves fighting at.

Then with inhuman speeds, they flashed here and there, shattering more of the Void. In just an instant, there was no void to speak of, as it was long erased.

The soul floated away from that scene, and later appeared before another one. This one was even more domineering, as two extremely handsome beings floated side by side.

One had red hair, the male, and the other had purple hair, the female. They appeared before a circular construct, that had various colors flashing over its exterior.

The major colors being black, red and purple. The man waved his hand, and from it, a powerful sanction force pulled at the construct before them with force.

In less than a second, the construct that stretched to immeasurable heights for the soul, was devoured by the man that was so handsome, he defined divine masculinity.

Moments later, the woman who was so beautiful she defined divine feminity, waved her hand and created a circular construct that was similar to that easily devoured one.

She created everything, including the rules, laws and other concepts that the great construct was made up of. They then moved to another construct.

'...'

The soul just floated by and appeared before yet another scene. One that was actually more domineering that all the scenes she just saw.

Yes, more domineering that a duo that could destroy Chaos, and recreate it in their own image. More domineering that a duo that fought and shattered the Void.

The reason being because this was a man who seemed to be writing Existence itself. Not just narrating it, or anything of the likes, but writing even the narrative itself.

He had an uncountable number of books floating around him, each one being written by a different thought of his, which represented the narrative of the book.

Each book representing an Existence that was something even the soul could not understand. This man was writing down the plot of many Existences, and then narrating them himself.

It was frightening. Even the previous two illusions could be something written by this man. The soul thought as it moved all the way towards the bright light.

And from within one of these written Existences, a single beauty within a golden city looked up at him. She was within a city that had an countless number of living beings, as it stretched forth Infinitismally.

She looked up at it, bypassing the illusion that was probably billions of years old, and stared at it. Besides her, was a woman who represented Winter, and on her other side, a woman who represented Summer.

While she herself, represented pure Wonder. She smiled at the little soul, and that smile, shook the little thing greatly. It was as if the woman saw through it, and knew it all.

That was terrifying.

By now, it was almost there, and could already see what was within the bright light.

It was a small hammer.

Once the small soul reached the bright light, the hammer also flew towards it, and fluently sank into its immaterial body.

'Oh...' Before it could say anything, information appeared right before its eyes, seemingly like the information from The Primordial Source.

[ Flame Demiurge (HIDDEN) ]

[ Comment: A Class that ultimately reigns Supreme above Existence and destroys all. The Aspect of Annihilation. Yet where there is Annihilation, there is Restoration. Where there is Destruction, there is... Creation ]

The little soul read through everything, and before it could do, nor say anything, it was absorbed towards the hammer at great force. 'Wah–'.

The soul cried out in shock, but the force was far greater than anything. Being greater than gravity, or the suction force of a blackhole, as it pulled it closer to the hammer.

At the same time, above it, illusions of different majestic beings appeared. They numbered up to thirty six beings, and each one had their own different Visage, that made them stand out.

They stared down at the little soul, and the soul itself could not see it.

And amongst them, were the man that represented divine masculinity, the woman that represented divine feminity, the woman of Summer, the woman of Winter, the woman who defied the Author of Existence, the Author of Existence themself, the golden monkey demihuman, the shadowy figure that fought him, and many more.

They all looked down with various colors cloaking their expressions. None saying anything. Nor doing anything.

They just watched until the soul and the hammer met, and began fusing. Followed by a blinding light that cloaked the entire Void the soul was floating within.

Then the illusions also slowly broke down one by one, leaving behind an empty void. Silence and tranquility returning.

Or that was expected. But moments later, flames kicked up within this Void. Flames so red, they were redder than blood itself.

And within the flames, a set of words were uttered with somberness and sadness. "Child... you are still too young." It said, before later vanishing once again.

Now leaving the Void in true peace.

Within the small hut.

Flint opened his eyes in silence, as the memories from his soul's journey appeared within his mind.

He was conflicted. He was happy. He was confused. And most importantly, he was finding it hard to understand whatever he went through.

'I'm still too young? What's that supposed to mean?' He thought, as the words of the entity within the flames somehow reached him, making him doubt a lot of things.

'And those flames...' And not only did he hear it, but he also saw a wisp of the red flames. Now he was becoming even more doubtful of everything presented to him.

Who were his parents? What did they do to him? What were those illusions? What purpose did they play? And what was his fate?

He thought and thought, but never came to a conclusion. The only way he could think of right now, that could help him, was that man with the gray mask.

His feeling, and his flames told him that everything would be uncovered from that man. As for how, he did not know himself. But he at least agreed.

[ TING!!! ]

[ You have equipped the <Flame Demiurge> Hidden Class as your Sub Class ]

[ You have obtained the following Class Skills, "Annihilatory Flames", "Ancient Anvil", "Blazing True Elemental", "Apollyon Domain", "Essence of Destruction" ]

[ Note: Class Skills have the same power to absolutely dominate those within the same Realm/Rank. The higher the grade of the Class, the more Realms/Ranks one can transcend. Can currently transcend and affect all mortals and mid ranked gods with your Class Skills ]

Flint went through the information, and realized that it was the same as the previous Class. He brushed the information off, and laid down on his back, facing up.

It was like that, until a laid back voice disrupted his happy 'morning'. "Rise and shrine, little flame boy." The voice said, startling Flint so much, he immediately woke up.

"Aaahhh!!!" He screamed and jump as further back away from the voice. The young man before him asked back in irritation and annoyance, "Are you done?"

"..."

Flint was forced to shut his mouth and keep quiet. He stated at the young man standing before him, and ultimately calmed down after a minute.

"Who are you?" He asked.

"Don't remember me?" The young man asked, a sneer appearing on his face, "I gave you, and your inner demon the run on your gold."

"Huh?"

"I kicked your ass." The young man, Damien, responded with a sigh of disappointment.

Realizing everything, Flint's eyes widened and he stretched out his finger towards Damien, and shouted in slight anger and fear, "ITS YOU!!"

"Yes, its me." Damien responded with a nod, his tone calm and unbothered. Flint then calmed down, yet still had a frown on his face. "Why... didn't you kill me?"

"Your life aren't worth that much."

"You killed my whole clan though!!" He spoke through gritted teeth, the room temperature slowly climbing up. Damien nodded once again, "Yes, I did."
