The Primordial Record

Chapter 775 Pain

?The Third Prince shrugged the motion making his massive stomach undulate like a canoe on a stormy river,

"I remember that you all did not believe me, and we had to wait for two Eras. You all watched this universe return twice in the same position before we began trying to break into it. Four and a half billion years ago we succeeded. You went your merry way and began devouring the Will of this universe while I pursued another agenda, searching for the trace of that Empyrean who had hijacked my powers."

"I found her merely 15 million years ago, and she had already given birth to children, but something was wrong. She was far weaker than when I met her many Eras ago, and the wisdom of her children was greatly diminished, more like animals than powerful Empyreans who fought against their universes and were powerful enough to drag it to its death."

"After all this time I had already gathered a preliminary understanding of her powers and what happened that day when she hijacked my powers. Whether I choose to believe it or not, she had summoned me, and using my powers as a vehicle found a way to deliver herself and her offspring to the future, even after the deaths of the universe."

"I wanted this power for myself, no… I needed it. Her abilities had gone beyond wishes and were now miracles, and I know to achieve the impossible, miracles were needed.

"It was harder and easier than I anticipated to trick this Empyrean this time, she was young, not knowing the dangers of the universe, but looking back now and seeing the result of my actions in the creation of Rowan I find myself wondering, who was really using whom."

The Third Prince stroked his stomach, "Oh Elura, even in your silence, your actions are still deafening."

He noticed the increased irritation on the faces of Fourth and he smirked, "I merged my essence with Elura with a promise to bring wisdom to her children, and First went behind me to kill and subsume their bodies into our great works, I had won at first, but my victory was short, I had unknowingly created a monster."

The Third Prince looked at the irritated faces of Fourth and tried to argue,

"You should understand that it was supposed to be a long shot. How was I to imagine that a pairing of our essences could create a child who would be able to draw the Singularity to himself using only his first cry? I knew with him I would be able to resurrect our Main Body with far more success than the plans we had but I had become too weak. That little bastard took far more from me than I anticipated."

"The rage of Elura when she knew of my treachery did not help matters. She attacked me with unbelievable amounts of powers that should be impossible for such a young Empyrean, she lost and I believed that I may have won our battle decisively, but she must have drained all my luck, for nothing went the way I planned after this battle, this should be a hidden technique of her that I was not aware of…"

"I believe that my failure to steal the essence of First must be due to this bad luck and even your refusal to help me was this bad luck at work. Subtly changing Fate and outcomes around me so that I always run across the least favorable path."

"But as you know this is not the main reason I'm here. It had been difficult but I had managed to contain my son for the last million years. He broke away from me barely thirty years ago, and he is already on the path to mastering the power of Will and cross Dimensions. In a thousand years or less, I believe he will succeed."

"He already has at least two powerful bloodlines, each of them more powerful than should exist inside a universe. What is even more disturbing is his mind and cunning, he does not display the arrogance of youth and his bloodlines have not corrupted his decision-making skills."

Fourth interjected, "That's not how the Primordial Record should work, you don't just get powerful bloodlines from nothing, and even if he acquires powerful bloodlines, it would take billions of years for him to actualize them. Destroying your Intent must be nothing but a coincidence, you are far weaker than you realize."

"Are you even listening to me?!" the Third Prince screamed, "It is just thirty short years, nothing that he achieved should be possible, I even suspect that he is able to consume sou… No that cannot be true, but remember who his fucking mother is and understand that if she could hijack my powers to bring herself across time, what other abilities could this bloodline not hijack also."

The Third Prince was unaware that he was beginning to pull out the little hair on his head as he complained,

"I suspect that the combination of my talent and the power of wishes might have created an effect that was greater than the sum of its parts, and the Primordial Record in the hands of my son has nearly finished its evolution."

"He is growing too powerful, and with your interference with the universe and the ability of the Primordial Record to hide its owners from the gaze of the heavens, it would be nearly impossible to slow his growth or stop him if we don't act now."

"So what do you say brother, a single one of your teeth is unrivaled in the material universe, search for him and hunt him down and share with me his essence, so I shall regain all that I have lost."

The Third Prince looked with cautioned anticipation at his brother, hoping he took the bait.

One of the figures of Fourth suddenly punched the Third Prince, his head flew back and he cried out in surprise and anguish, another fourth seized him by the back of his neck and forced him to his knees, and a third pushed his hands into the Third Prince stomach and attempted to rip out Elura from his stomach.

A wave of deep red energy erupted from the Third Prince as his cries of rage rippled around him.

Whatever power he was bringing to bear was useless as Fourth did not budge back for a single inch and ripped the sleeping figure of Elura away from the Third Prince.

That act caused great waves of green lightning to erupt from the body of the Third Prince as the cord binding him to Elura was forcefully severed. The mournful cries of a woman resounded in the void joined by the cried of pain from the Third Prince.

"What are you doing? What the fuck do you think you are doing Fourth, I swear if you harm a single hair on her head I shall butcher you even if it is the last thing I do."

The Third Prince staggered to his feet, massive coils of his intestines covered his feet and he stepped on his internal organs without noticing the damage he was doing to himself.

"Even now you don't see it," a figure of Fourth backhanded the Third Prince sending him to his knees, one of his eyeballs was crushed and his spine could no longer take the damage and it snapped.

The figure of Fourth holding the sleeping body of Elura looked at it in distaste and a bit of uneasiness as he tore reality apart revealing the Great Darkness beyond and the sight of other roving universes, and with a mighty heave, he threw her inside the gap and sealed it shut.

The Third Prince's single eye widened in shock and a surprising amount of pain as he screamed an incoherent cry of rage. From his shattered body, a mighty shockwave erupted, that ruffled the hair of Fourth and then another and another, each of them growing stronger with each eruption.

"Stop this madness at once Third, anymore of this and you shall perish!"

The Third Prince reply was only his cries of rage that was growing louder as more shockwaves erupted from his body.

At the seventh eruption of power from the Third Prince, the eyes of the hundreds of Fourth opened wide in surprise as they were pushed back a few feet. The ninth eruption pushed them back for hundreds of feet, and the playfulness in his eyes ceased to be replaced by a look of measured concern.
