The Sun - Lord of Mysteries (fanfiction)

Chapter 23: "Infinity"

"I declare it's ineffective!"

Aucuses declared, raising his spear to the crimson moon, his voice reverberating across the vast starry space.

The crimson moon dimmed and the moon's surface began to change as the blood sea that was flowing around the moon began to evaporate, turning the moon back to silver, like it was before in the past civilization.

Under his declaration, the very authority that mother goddess of depravity used to corrupt the moon was being removed.

However, the crimson sea on the moon surged all of sudden, as it began emitting crimson light, which quickly covered the entire moon, stopping the transformation and the effect of his declaration was removed with it.

Immediately after that, the crimson moon changed visibly, becoming illusory and ethereal before finally transforming into an indescribable being with countless bloody tentacles and eyes.

Mother Goddess of Depravity!

The mere appearance of the mother goddess of depravity caused an ocean of blood to appear in space, completely corrupting the surrounding reality.

This also prevented Aucuses from using "Order" authority; because reality is under 'Her' control, his law will have no effect.

So, there was no other way than to make everything fall into chaos.

"Sun!"

At that precise moment, his deep voice could be heard.

Now, directly in front of 'Her,' and in the blood ocean, countless miniature suns bloomed in brilliance, instantly illuminating this planetary system.

The light of the countless miniature suns caused the ocean of blood to melt, unable to withstand the scorching heat any longer.

Mother goddess of depravity just looked at the suns, causing some to instantly transform into crimson moons or simply dissolve in the blood ocean.

Then, Aucuses appeared before the blood ocean's edge and waved his spear in the space.

"Die in this ocean of light, bitch!"

He spoke with a grin, and immediately all of the remaining miniature suns turned white, emitting a scorching glare, just like the sun that had gone supernova before.

Boom!

Then they all imploded as the miniature suns blazing light immediately engulfed the blood ocean and mother goddess of depravity.

The light then began to spread throughout the entire planetary system, obliterating everything in its path.

Light consumed everything, including the blue star in the centre, planets revolving around it, and asteroids, before annihilating it.

From afar, one would see an ocean of light almost completely engulfing this planetary system in almost an instant.

It was a sight to behold; an entire planetary system no smaller than the solar system faced extinction under the light of Aucuses.

He was able to easily destroy this planetary system because it was not influenced by the authority of mother goddess of depravity, as opposed to the blood world, which was a manifestation of her authority, so he went all out.

As Aucuses stood in the ocean of light, painful roars echoed around him, but even hearing the roars didn't make him happy as he thought, because the powerful life force emanating from 'Her' only reduced just slightly.

'Is that why they call 'Her' 'The Indestructible'?'

Aucuses also noticed that the mother goddess of depravity's power was dwindling out of nowhere, as if something was attempting to interrupt her power coming from the astral world.

He could guess that it was the other in the outside world, helping them, but still he didn't dare to underestimate 'Her.'

He also did not allow Lilith to enter the battlefield until Artisan finished filling the historical scroll completely, as there is still a major risk for Lilith to enter the battlefield without any protection from the mother goddess of depravity.

Suddenly, the roars vanished, and with them, all of his senses screamed in danger.

He didn't hesitate to turn to his left and raise his hand, and in an instant, a shield of pure light formed on his hands.

Boom!

A beam of light struck his shield just then, but it wasn't crimson, but rather completely pitch dark.

When the dark beam hit him, it also instantly extinguished the very concept of 'light' by dyeing and corrupting everything in the ocean of light around the planetary system.

Aucuses was using all of his strength to keep the light shield in place while resisting the black beam of light, as his right hand trembling holding the shield.

He also felt nothing but endless malice from the dark beam. The malice began to affect him, invoking evil thoughts in his mind and attempting to influence him in the battle.

It made him shiver, for he even had some thoughts that this darkness is nothing other than the manifestation of pure evil.

His golden iris glowed, and pure light erupted from his form, instantly dispelling the effects.

Crack!

Just then, his light shield resisting the dark beam began to break, seemingly unable to bear it anymore.

Under an command of mother goddess of depravity, the darkness in his surroundings moved closer to him in an attempt to corrupt him.

Aucuses' heartbeat slowed as he took a long breath, then he dispelled the light shield instantly, without hesitation.

In the endless darkness, Aucuses floated, his figure emitting pure light. As if sensing this, the filthy darkness moved in an attempt to extinguish this pure light, and above it all, a dark beam of light was heading towards him.

Aucuses' expression were unwaveringly calm as he floated in the middle of this, looking at the dark beam of light that was approaching him. He raised his right hand and crossed his middle and index fingers, forming a symbol.

He intended to use a conceptual move he created based on the power of one of his favourite anime characters in his previous life.

"Infinity."

As he used his authority of "order", his calm voice reverberated in the endless darkness.

One bright star after another appeared in the uncorrupted space around him.

With the appearance of the stars, the very "order" of space began to change. The authority of "order" strengthened the space itself to be able to withstand corruption and destructive power.

Then, under "order" authority, space began to expand "infinitely", and the stars in the fabric of space stretched with it, extending like lines of light around Aucuses.

When the dark beam and filthy darkness collided with the expanding space, they both came to a halt for a brief moment before being pulled away from Aucuses by infinitely expanding space.
