Epic of Caterpillarchapter 1287: the underdog of the universes

.

Apparently, and according to Loki, there are always people that just want to mess with us. And now, that the new Eras cam and all of that crap, there seems to be a lot of enemies we didn't even knew about until this happened and space and time distorted, opening rifts to completely foreign dimensions!

Well, these are small dimensions, often around this area of the Universe or something, I don't think they're the bigger dimensions that The One had once mentioned. I remember he had once told me that there was a clear pattern of the Multi-dimensional scale.

As of now, we were living inside a World, after that came Stars, then Star Systems, and many of them made of a Galaxy, the Universe was composed of trillions of Galaxies, making vast expanses of them, and then, the entire Universe was a sphere floating in an Ocean of Nothingness where many more Universes were.

Amongst the, one of our neighbor Universes is the Maxima Universe, for example… and then, amongst this sea of Universes, what's called "Multiverses" are formed which are like expanded made up of many Universes stuck together or something.

Then Omniverses made up of these Multiverses, and lastly, Dimension, the Dimensional Membrane or something encapsulates it all.

I also remember he said something that above Dimensions there were Realities, and realities were up of many dimensions.

I also remember a clue from Mammon saying that Primordial Origin of History was shattered and that formed many iterations of timelines and universes with many parallel versions of history and mythology figures from a single timeline that was the original one.

He hasn't told me any more than that and I am thirsty for more lore, but that's it for today.

However! What does Dimensions and Planes have to do with this entire thing? Well, it could be said that Planes are like lesser dimensions, smaller in comparison to our own, they don't have universes and galaxies inside, but are just insanely big landscapes that are self-contained within tehri own dimensional membranes.

A very clear example of this is the Gates of Hell or Heaven, both are small Dimensions or Planes made by The One, for demons and angels respectively. They seem to be able to travel somehow, and they can get into many Universes at once or something.

What I've known is that Hell had been able to even visit other Universes, but I don't know if other completely different dimensions than our own.

While Hell does this, Heaven mostly stays the same and is made to store the angels that seemingly are like the defenders of the entire Universe… or something like that was what I learned from the books I read inside of Mammon's library.

"As I said previously, there are many Dimensional Planes that got some sort of hate for us- no, the Universe we live. Or maybe it is not hate but plain greediness. They want to conquer the Universe or something like that, I think…" said Loki.

"Indeed. I know these Planes, I can see everything through the world as I am the one that created the Astral Road, which is in fact an extension of my own body. Did you know?" asked Aura rather pridefully.

"Ooooh~?! I didn't knew it was that complex! So you're in everywhere?! That's super overpowered! What the hell, Aura! You're a creep too if you're staring at everyone…" I said.

"Creep? Hahaha! Not really, I cannot see too well what happens inside the Realms, after all each Realm has an atmosphere that stops my Astral Road from entering, so I can only see as much. However, anything that happens outside of Realms… I can see it." said Aura.

"Then you're better at explaining, right? I am not as all-knowing as a literal Supreme God." Said Loki.

"Okay, Kireina, after the new Eras began, your chaotic era distorted Fate and made it possible for Dimensional Rifts to appear. These Dimensional Planes had been waiting for this moment where the spatial layers and the Universal Membrane were to distort and open up. They used their powers to tear apart these weakened universal membranes that were in here, opened dimensional rifts, and began to infect the world with their unique energies, making it possible for them to "make a territory" where they could come and visit us…" said Aura.

"What…? I see! So I provoked it… I made it possible for them to come! Agh! Damn it, I am always messing up everything, huh?" I sighed.

"Don't think that, I believe it was for the better, we knew the risks and we still accepted them, after all they were important for the future, a future where we can escape this world!" said Aura.

"A world outside of this one… the outer universe, huh?" said Loki.

"I wonder if we could conquer these "planets" that are outside, we would be able to expand Kireina-sama's influence across the Universe, conquering galaxies, stars, black holes, everything!" said Agatheina.

"Indeed! It would be a wondrous sight to see as we expand our influence around the world!" said Morpheus.

"I want a star for myself! Can I get one?" asked Maeralya.

"Sure, when we get a lot you guys can have as many as you want! It's on the house!" I said.

Everyone began to cheer.

"A-Anyways! This is not the point! The point is that these dimensions are invaders that want to take over the Universe! All these Hegemonies dominating these Dimensions might be as strong as Supreme Deities if not even stronger! To sustain themselves and constantly gain more power, they desire to take over Universes and conquer them for resources and more… these are what we call the Rogue Dimensions, which can even move across Universes to seek those weak enough. Apparently, our Universe is very weak so we are targeted by many at the same time." Sighed Aura.

"Wait! Do you mean that we are the underdog of the Universes?" I asked.

"Yes, I think… According to everything I've found out…" said Aura.

Naiwa…
