《God's Death》Chapter 8 - Finding Owtz
Advertisement
As per usual, I feel like I am falling and then snap back into myself. I was expecting or should I say hoping? To be on Gante. But as I look around, all I see are tiny white specks of light off in the distance. Before doing anything I make sure that I am not in some weird position and cross my legs while floating in this empty vastness.
Observe
I quickly fly throughout Gorgo's universe (without actually moving my body of course). At first, I am unsure if my program for observation was working correctly. It seemed that I was stuck in place. But it turned out I was only moving too slowly. During my 'travels' I pass through something quite bright but is not too colorful. I attempt to whisper the words 'nebula' from my body. But no sound comes out of my mouth. As I enjoy the scenery and almost pass something that would seem far too small to be of any significance like everything else here. Even I feel small within this place. I remember that natural feeling I would get when looking at another lifeform after becoming a god.
I wonder what I should name this?
I also should set up a way not to lose track of time.
Focus: Pull information from the SOURCE of your mind.
I've always been pretty annoyed with how little access to information I have; I feel I need to use fewer sensations, as well as try to keep better track of my options and time. So with that intent. I accidentally found the 'source' when trying to find a sensation to go with focus. This had popped up when trying to go over what had happened to me when I heard that echo of my voice go off earlier.
I just felt a coolness go down my spine...
Probably nothing?
So here is what I found in the source.
var SOURCE = {
Existence: system.fetch(777),
Avatar: function(soul){
if(!this.Existence.avatar){
this.Existence.createTmpBody(this.Existence.id);
this.Existence.setSenses(this.Existence.getTmpBody(),soul.x+15, soul.y+6, soul.z-15);
this.Existence.avatar =true;
}else{
this.Existence.setSenses(this.Existence.id, this.Existence.x, this.Existence.y+6, this.Existence.z);
this.Existence.clearTmpBody(this.Existence.id);
},
Observe: function(information){
if(!this.Existence.observe){
this.Existence.setDualSenses(this.Existence.id, information.getX+15, information.getY+6, information.getZ+15, this.Existence.x, this.Existence.y, this.Existence.z);
this.Existence.observe=true;
}else{
this.Existence.clearDualSenses(); this.Existence.setSenses(this.Existence.id, this.Existence.x, this.Existence.y+6);
this.Existence.observe=false;
},
Create: function(existence, soul, genome){
if(existence){
var item = new system.add(Math.random()*6.25e30, existence.x, existence.y, existence.z, existence.soul, existence.dna, existence.rna, existence.TE, existence.mind, existence.state, existence.source);
}else{
//no condition set
}},
Erase: function(existence){
system.clear(existence.id);
},
Focus: function(){
if(system.fetch(this.Existence.id).admin){
this.Existence.UI.print(this.Existence.UI.width/2, this.Existence.UI.height/2, this.Existence.source);
This.Existence.timePerception =6570;
}},
Inspect: function(existence){
if(existence.soul){
this.Existence.UI.print(existence.x, existence.y+existence.height, existence.z, system.fetch(existence.id).name);
Advertisement
this.Existence.UI.arc(existence.soul.x, existence.soul.y, existence.soul.z, existence.soul.strength, 0, 2*Math.PI);
this.Existence.UI.stroke();
}else{
//no condition set
}},
Search: function(existence){
this.Existence.mind+=existence.x;
this.Existence.mind+=existence.y;
this.Existence.mind+=existence.z;
this.Existence.mind+=existence.soul;
}
};
It would seem I am unable to edit it directly. It kinda looks like it reflects my program, seeing this. I decided to do a little test by adding 'Search' to my program...
Search: Feel for an existence and get a feel for its location.
After using Focus the source popped back up, after skimming through it I realized that 'Search' was added as well. I know for sure that I did not create inspect, but I guess it was just something I was using naturally? I wonder what Gorgo's source would look like... I imagine it's crazy long! Or if he can even access his?
I was able to program keywords to my sensations
I suppose it's possible that Gorgo uses his program without access to his source?
Like I use to?
Or still do......
Ah. the planet is getting closer
I should try out inspect...
Inspect
My attempt to inspect this orange planet fails, I thought it would give me information... but it gave me nothing. To think something I have probably been doing passively doesn't work when I actually try to use it.....
*sigh*
I guess I shouldn't put too much faith in this thing
I should go find Owtz
Normally I would just try to feel for him, or anything I was trying to find. Since I am kinda everything. But something about Gorgo's universe feels off. I also have no idea how to get back to my beloved Otz room...
Might as well give this a try
Search
Again nothing happens. Although I guess I should try to do it while trying to focus on his image.
Search
Huh? this feels a bit familiar
I wonder.....
Observe
I do this while focusing in on the information I got from using search, although it is not exactly clear. It's more of like a gut feeling of his location, hard to describe.
Ahahhahaah
Instead of seeing what Owtz was up to like I expected, I ended up losing my spot near the planet. I had forgotten that I was already using it....
Once more
Observe
I focus once again on the feeling I got.
Urgh, I hate that it's so vague... I wish it felt less weird.
My vision changes and I look around and see a living nightmare, meteors are falling from the sky. The sky itself is a molten red. A monster covered in shadows is descending from the sky.
What the fuck!?!?!
Inspect !!!!!!
It's name is "Nightmare"....
I smack my very distant face and continue to spectate to see what the hell this thing is doing. the shadows disappear, its eyes glow a sickly yellow, and its head almost looks like an arm with its mouth being a hand. But its actual arms look like that of a praying mantis. The only difference being that they are made out of bones sticking out its fleshy shoulders. Its feet are like the hooves of a moose, and its neck is long.

Within its sickle-like hands lies a headle-
Owtz!!!! You kil-
His head grows back and his hand starts to vibrate. While another slightly bigger hand forms over it which is pure black (but also slightly transparent).
He then explodes
It does not look effective! The Nightmare barely reacts to his self-destruction. Merely shaking its head like it was simply child's play and shrieking loudly.
Owtz remains scatter all over the Nightmare, but as his constitution is very similar to Gorgos. They do not stick to it and fall into the lava below. Looking merely like rocks, his broken body actually blends in quite well with the surroundings. I am not worried though because I can see that part of his foot has his soul within it. And I know that they have multiple brains.... a wound like that for him should be no problem.
His foot falls into the lava, and less then a second later he comes out fully regenerated as well as naked. as the Nightmare swings its sickle towards him, he has his clothes back and teleports above its head before it even reaches him. All of a sudden his muscles start to expand and he SMACKS THE NIGHTMARE!!! Right on the top of its head!
Owtz looks extremely tired and angry, but the Nightmare barely reacts from his attack and instead turns back into shadows and quickly moves far above him. It materializes back into its original form and shoots a greyish ghost-like face at him. He takes the attack head-on, but his body turns into what looks like the Nightmares shadow form. He then falls down from where he was floating and lands headfirst onto the solid ground (missing the lava pool). The shadow form fades and he slowly tries to stand up. His form is wobbly but he has a huge smile on his face.
All of this happened in a few seconds, so I had gotten a little enchanted... and a little scared of showing up.
Avatar
I appear near him right as the sickles of death were about to hit him. Pushing him out of the way, I take the full force of the attack. It instantly cuts through me and I feel horrible pain in the area of my stomach.
I fall to the ground in two pieces and try to mentally reattach my limbs, I slowly start to pull myself back together.
But it would seem I am not fast enough. Before I can pull myself together the Nightmare strikes again. But this time a grey shield wrapped in chains blocks the attack. I managed to become one with my other half.... and look up to see that Owtz is standing there, with both hands out blocking each attack with a shield.
He looks over at me and says
"Don't worry, this creature just had something I have been looking for."
The next thing you know a gust of wind sends me flying away, as I'm flying away
Observe
My body is still crashing into a few mountains, but as I see the rubble cover me and block my vision I also still see Owtz. I'm just now noticing that his soul is actually quite a bit smaller than the Nightmare's. But the soul of the Nightmare is not white, it is pure black. A cloak of shadows forms over his clothes and his soul turns black as well, and it copies the exact size and shape of the Nightmare's soul!
Owtz then says
"I've gotten everything I can from you! Now go back to HELL!!!!"
right as he says that the repeated quick sickle attacks smash through the shield, He dodges it (I'm still flying through my third mountain as this is happening). He then rolls to the side and holds out both of his palms.
And the exact attack the nightmare had used on him earlier is reflected, a greyish ghost far bigger then that of the nightmare shoots out of his hand, while the nightmare shrieks once more and sends the same attack as well.
They clash and fizzle out, but Owtz does not look surprised. I also notice that his soul is no longer there... but it is behind the nightmare! The nightmare somehow notices this as well and doesn't waste time, it quickly turns around and attempts to use its sickle attack, but grey chains stop one sickle while a floating shield sends the other bouncing back.
His soul moves again! But his body is there as well... he now has three bodies on the field. This cycle of baiting with his soul and restraining continues until the nightmare is surrounded by 12 of him. As well as one floating high above.
"Such a powerful creature, but such a weak mind"
Says Owtz as an extremely small amount of his soul goes into each one of his bodies...
The nightmare looks confused and attempts to attack him. But every single one of his bodies souls become as big as the soul of a nightmare! He then shoots out his signature attack from all 13 of his bodies. The nightmare looks like it's in pure agony, and it turns into its shadow form as it gets compressed into the center. But it is still unable to escape....
It slowly fades from existence....
"Muhahahahahhaah"
"I beat the legendary Nightmare! With its own Death Magic!!!!!!"
The other bodies slightly blow up, while the one that was above the nightmare loses its shadowy cloak.
His soul reverts back to its white color, but is twice the size it once was. He then teleports to the side of a mountain and catches me before I go flying into another one(I was on my 5th mountain by the way). The whole battle happened before I could do anything at all...
He then says to me
"It's been a little while huh?"

8 133Core Evolution
Cyrus’s soul was taken to partake in an event called DC BG (The Dungeon Core Battle Games). It’s eternal death if he loses meaning he can no longer reincarnate or go back to his previous world. The winner will be granted any wish of their choosing. There are 6 color core clans that he must go up against. They all come from the rainbow, so they all have different elements. A new color was added to mix which is his color. Can you guess which one it is? He must become a dungeon core and strengthen it for any intruders and the future battle games.

8 102The Traveler
Reincarnated with no information other than a single mysterious message, little Damian must survive as an infant in a world of might and magic. He’d better not get caught possessing his memories, or he might spend a thousand years suffering. Being a baby in another world is weird, disorientating, scary, disgusting, and also heartwarming. It doesn’t just happen for no reason, but the “why?” might be a harder puzzle to solve than conquering the whole entire realm. Both of those eventualities were very remote possibilities for an unusually smart baby. He was more concerned with making it to his first birthday without being damned by the gods or eaten by dangerous monster.
8 190The Rising of The Young Demon Lord
Can anyone imagine a world where a single species has the whole world at its whims and yet worship a being that practically is non-existence? The dominant species who would lie to their brother in arms, hurt their family…... betray their loved ones to gain some kind of blessing from their so-called "Gods". This sickening way of life is what we humans live by, thinking that the gods are the reason we have lived for over millions of years and not the perseverance of we homosapiens who have met many disasters over the years and prevail. What's even worse is that there are extremists who believe that these disasters are a trial for humans to take to reach the sacred ground of the gods…. This is a story of a young 15-year-old Asagami Haruki who faced the truth of the world face first.
8 151Sold To Be His
(Mafia Series#3)He advanced towards me and grabbed my arm painfully. I hissed under his hold and tried to pull my arm away from him but all in vain. "Who are you?" I asked, sacredly. He squeezed my arm which was causing pain in my arm. It would leave a buries for sure. He chuckled darkly and pulled me to him which made me hit with his chest. He quickly moved his hand from my arm to my waist and pulled me impossibly close. I looked at him in uncontrollable fear. I felt his other hand move on my back and felt something pinching on my arm, painfully. I looked at him with wide eyes and tearful eyes which were flowing through my eyes, that were slowly closing."Your future!" I heard him saying in dangerous voice as my eyes were closing without my permission. I tried to open them but failed and let myself sunk in the darkness. - - -Izzah, a beautiful and talented doctor.
