Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

The formation of a realm was rather quite easy. The Abyssal Flames held every Heavenly Dao known to man. I merely had to replicate it using the Abyssal Essence Lily controlled. The foolish lambs I slaughter will forever be forced to live in a realm where they'll never know peace.

The hardest part of this grand scheme is getting the souls to enter this specific realm willingly. One can't force two souls to fuse without damage; if there is damage, the chances of linking the souls to my main soul decrease.

I needed perfection. I needed to fool the souls into believing they'll be free. But the moment they set foot in the wheel of reincarnation of my creation, I own them. I will be their new God, and they won't even know it.

When one master a Dao, one becomes semi-omnificent. Information regarding the laws of their choosing will flow endlessly through their mind, and it's their job to learn from that mess. I was lucky because of the Flames of Hellfire; I never had to go through that. But now that I am Omnificent within this realm, I'll be able to grasp concepts and laws much faster. And since I've separated myself into a billion versions of myself, I'll have someone constantly monitoring this realm.

"What are you going to call this realm?" Asked Lily.

"I was thinking Origin… But I think I'll call it—"

"Insomnia, for the souls of this realm will never find rest," Lily whispered. "Tormented as slaves that'll never know it. They'll live as stock for all eternity. Forever not knowing they'll ever attain true freedom. Such a cruel system. "

"The Forsaken Realm, Insomnia," I whispered back, nodding slightly with a thin smile. "Let's go with that. Now shall we begin with the merging of two souls?"

My will and Erics will have already spoken, and the contract is already formed. All that's left is to complete the merger. Shall we enter Insomnia?"

With billions of cognitions of myself working on the Broken world, it had only taken a few hours to forge a realm for all races and cultures. The moment those willing to be reborn with their memories die, they'll forever be trapped in the cycle of reincarnation, for I will not offer their precious memories again. They'll be like every other person because they will die eventually. I'll make sure of that.

Entering Insomnia, I looked around at the millions of clones of myself holding other souls and smiled as we all began to merge them.

Using the Path of Abyssal Night in tandem with the Abyssal essence Lily governed, I slowly began to merge Eric's soul with a fragment of myself.

And as if everything just clicked in harmony, my soul coiled around erics Soul Flame like a serpent and began to sink so deep into his soul I found his core.

…

…

…

"How many is that now?" I asked Lily, watching my soul dim at the insane pressure I was under. It wasn't easy building an entire universe while simultaneously processing billions of other cognitions. Were it not for Lily's protection; I don't think I'll be as sane as I am now.

"You've acclimated over a hundred thousand souls. All that's left is to link them into a global network. Right now, you have a sub-par link. We need to link these souls you've already merged with directly into your core. From there, we'll link the soul to the mind and the mind to the body to form unification.

Starting with Eric, I began to watch one by one as my cognitions began merging with others' souls without issue. The process was a little slow, taking seven long years, but I had nothing but time. And I needed to go slow; This was all a trial.

Once I master this process, I can go as quickly as I want but for now… I need to go slow.

Finishing the merger with Eric, Lily was the first to allow Abyssal essence to flare to life as it coiled around the small soul flame. However, just as she was about to go on, a soft voice echoed.

"You're being too rough. You need to match the frequency to Arsene's soul and his core, " Said Lilith, calmly drawing near. "The link between Arsene and the souls you have there is completely off. it'll break.

Staring as Abyssal Essense swelled around me, I honestly had no idea what that meant. Lilith and Lily had spoken of soul frequency before, but I had no idea what it meant. Well, I had a general idea. But it wasn't based on knowledge of the souls but rather atoms and how they move.

"Arsene's soul frequency is rough!" replied Lily as a matter of fact.

"Far from it. It's adaptive. It might appear rough, but it's actually calm. The edges are rough, though; that's why he might grow angry quickly at times, but he will usually keep his cool. Why don't you let me handle him?"

"Fine… You would know. You are screwing him." Said lily bitterly.

… Are they fighting? Why is Lily bitter?

"That's right; I am screwing him… And I need another baby! I want three instead of two."

'... Don't you think it's a little late for that?" I responded, shaking my head.

"Far from it,' Said Lilith's cognition. "Can't your Divinity of Sin do anything? Well, I want three instead of two!"

… This is what happens when I tell my wife my secrets.

"Lily, just make the Link for me, please. We can discuss triplets later."

"See that black and red flame there," Lily pointed out, using the abyssal essence as a guide. "that's the core of Arsene, where the master cognition reside. That one soul is worth more than fifty-one percent of his soul."

Lilith nodded and looked at me, "I'm serious about the triplets. You know."

This woman is about to die from having two children, yet she wants three. What the hell is wrong with her? My God! I've been asking that question since I was with her. What the hell is wrong with me? Could it be in some way I'm a masochist and a sadist?

"I know," I replied, knowing I would not have three children. Two was enough. Not to mention I've already got a bastard. Let's get through this coming crisis with two, and we can talk about three.
