《Godhood》Chapter 10 - Ascension and Mortals
Advertisement
Morren felt his ascension coming, and he couldn’t be happier. He almost lost himself in his happiness except for the increasingly chaotic and deadly energy that was bombarding his body and weakening him. He quickly left the sub dimension and hurried back to the mountain that he was on previously on, while suppressing the coming of his ascension. The thick thunder clouds gathered, but an occurrence that he had never seen before happened. A tornado was forming in the cloud and something that looked humanoid was forming in it. But even with his superior vision he could not tell what it was as the black clouds obscured his vision. The figure in the tornado started to approach the ground as purple lightning that Morren had seen during his demigod tribution became more and more prominent in the clouds above.
Morren stood in a battle ready stance because he had guess that he would be fighting the mysterious humanoid creature that was a little over halfway to the mountain. The figure descended and the aura in released spiked till it was perfectly equal with Morren’s. The black clouds that surrounded the figure moved outward until they formed a barrier of swirling wind around the mountain top. The barrier looked like slightly balck air that was visibly whipping around with heavenly purple lightning crackling through it. The figure was finally visible. It was a clone of Morren. Everything from appearance to power level was all the same. Both Morren and the Morren clone were exactly the same. Morren was shocked. ‘How could such a clone exist’ he thought.
“It is obvious how I was created. I was made using the energy that makes up everything in the same way you are right now. Now please, no more questions. I am merely created by the universe to test if you are worthy of becoming a lesser god.” the clone replied to Morren’s thoughts.

‘A lesser god? I’ve never heard of different ranks of gods, but I guess it makes sense.’ As Morren was about to continue his thoughts when he felt his clone’s aura spike and a much more subtle yet powerful aura appear outside the barrier. He moved to block the attack as he looked towards the aura’s source. He successfully blocked the attack and also saw Emyir watching intently from a distance. Emyir noticed his stare and smiled. Morren could not smile back as he was punch in the face and hit the barrier and was struck by nine bolts of heavenly purple lightning. The lightning blasted him back towards his clone. He borrowed the force to kick his clone onto the barrier, but the clone was not struck by lightning. The clone charged back into the battle were Morren and it continued to exchange blows.
The fight continued on for 7 days and 7 nights in which Morren continued to tire while his clone didn’t and was only slightly injured. Morren was at the point where if he was hit 1 more time he would undoubtedly die. Emyir still watched from a distance, but his expression changed to a slightly concerned one. Morren continued to dodge as he no longer dared to take punch from head on. He had long ago stopped just attacking and was now focusing on analyzing himself and his strengths and weaknesses. That was when he remembered his fatal flaw that if exploited would kill him instantly. It was a certain tick that would happen when he punch with his left arm, it was small but very much there. He had gotten an injury when he was battling his brother who had betrayed him when he was younger to the death. Morren snapped back to reality to late as he noticed that his clone didn’t throw only the expected left hook but also a right knee. It was at that moment that time slowed down Morren punched out toward his clones lift armpit as his memories of his family both good and flashed before his eyes. If he died here his family would never know he died and would never be able to recover his body. He felt a faint energy in his body that was buried deep within him. An energy that was one of hope and belief. It was the faith of his family that he would succeed in his quest to godhood. This seemingly little bit of energy burst out like a tsunami and made his body move beyond his limits. His punch connected Just before his clones did. All was silent no matter where in the universe it was, everything felt a strange energy and power surround them briefly. The Malor, and Berrains stopped there fighting, even Eirlen, Martine, and Mallak all stopped what they were doing. The clone collapsed and faded out becoming energy once more. Morren stood there breathing heavily as his injuries and fatigue faded and his power increased exponentially. Emyir let out a big toothy grin.

“Hahaha, you finally succeeded.” Emyir laughed at the top of his lounges.
“Yes, I finally can save my family.” Morren replied.
“Now come Morren, I have a lot to show and teach you. But first we must move your family to the God’s Domain.” They teleported away.
The mortals of the universe had expanded and started to explore the world in which they lived on. The Volves, Berrains and Snow Giants had met on Lumas Prime. The Durrocs had encountered the Volves of Genesis. The only sentient mortals that had not met another species of even expanded were the Malor who were still locked in endless blood shed, except for one who left the wastelands and traveled for weeks and barely made it out and was now exploring the world with Mallak as they both got closer to gaining their needed insight.
In space, the asteroid creatures population expanded to 36 and they had significantly evolved and were now had a whale-like appearance with 9 long and strong tentacles instead of a rear fin, they also were still made up of stone though it was now magical and they now ate gasses and had gained a intelligence. They pushed many asteroids together to form a small planet which with a combined effort pushed out of the asteroid belt and made orbit Polaris, though it was still much closer to the asteroid belt that to Genesis and it’s moons. They were strong and smart enough to be considered divine beasts. They were now called (thanks to Morren) Star Grazers because that fed on the gasses Polaris produced.
