His appearance was haggard, with sunken eyes and pale skin. But within the depths of his exhaustion, Karyk's mind was brimming with knowledge, which made him appear lost.
The weight of the knowledge he had acquired was both a burden and a blessing, driving him to the brink of madness. Yet, Karyk pressed on, fueled by a relentless pursuit of answers.
Throughout these four months, his powers had grown to the point that even he didn't realize.
However, after a long time, he was almost done with almost all the Tombstones, leaving only one...
There was one last tomb left... The Tomb had no name at all. There was only one word written on it, "Divine."
Without a second thought, Karyk placed his hand on the last tombstone, finally reaching the end of his journey in this Ancestral Temple. This was probably going to be the last time for him.
As his hand made contact with the stone, a surge of energy coursed through his body. The tombstone began to glow with a brilliant light.
Karyk's consciousness was sucked in the tombstone.
When he opened his eyes, he was once again a child. But it was clear that he was in the Realm of Gods again. But things appeared different.
When he turned a few months old, one day he felt his eyes aching. Blood started trickling down his eyes as scenes started flashing before his eyes.
The scenes showed him what was happening in other rooms of his house, where his parents were rushing with him in their arms towards the Divine Physician to get him checked. In the scene, his eyes were bleeding
As soon as the scene stopped, he fell on the bed, weakly. His face was covered in the tears of blood.
Not long after, his mother entered the room. But seeing him in this situation, she screamed out loud. She rushed to her son, whose face was covered in blood.
Hearing the loud scream, the father also rushed inside.
After realizing what happened, even he was frightened. He picked his son in his arms and rushed out. This was the exact scene that Karyk had seen merely minutes ago.
He was taken to the Divine Doctor, who checked him and eventually came to the conclusion that it wasn't a sickness. Instead, it was the awakening of the boy's Divine Ability... The Ability of Godly Clairvoyance, that was rarely seen in the ancient times.
The doctor told them that there was nothing to worry about. The visions might be painful, but they didn't put his life in danger.
As time went on, Karyk continued to develop and control his Divine Ability.
With each passing day, the boy's visions became more vivid and accurate, allowing him to see events unfolding way before they happened.
Sometimes, the visions were about good things, not other times, they were about tragic disasters. However, the boy wasn't able to tell others about his vision before they came to pass. It was like some Divine Restriction on him.
The boy felt lovely and isolated. Thanks to the vision, he knew almost everything, even things that he didn't want to know. At times, he even felt as if he was going crazy, and he started to confuse reality with the visions.
Seeing their child suffer, his parents also felt pain but they couldn't help their son. Fortunately, as the boy became an adult, he thought of a solution.
To not lose himself between the current reality and future, he started writing all his visions in a book, as they happened.
Centuries passed, and the boy gained prominence in the entire Realm of Gods as the Divine Author. He created his own personal library with the books that he had written using his Clairvoyance.
However, he didn't let anyone read them until the events came to pass. His library of books that were written about the future events was only released after the time of those events passed.
However, even then, this was valuable since this revealed many secrets that weren't known about the events that unfolded.
The 'history' written by the divine author was the most accurate and never failed. It became a sought-after collection for historians, scholars, and those eager to understand the true intricacies of the past.
Unfortunately, even though the books now contained the past, it wasn't good for the public. These books only caused discord amongst the people. It was as if everyone who read these books had some curse on them.
After a series of misfortunes, the High Council decided to seal these books in a special library where no one could read them without permission from all High Council Members.
At the core of it all was Karyk who was now living the life of Divine Author.
This was also the longest life he had lived. A life that went on for over a thousand years.
And after a thousand years of life, he finally saw a scene which had greatly interested him.
He saw a scene of Chaos' birth. Finally it was the era that Karyk really wanted to know about. Soon after, Chaos' little brother Janus was born.
Chaos was said to be weak. His father was one of the strongest beings of the Realm of Gods, but he hadn't inherited any abilities of his father. On the other hand, Janus was younger but inherited the abilities from his father.
Because of that, Chaos was always despised by people in the Realm of Gods, for being as weak as mortals. Only his little brother Janus was always by his side.
Along the way, Karyk saw a scene. In the scene, Chaos' father had left the home when Janus accidentally used his power in his childhood, and opened a portal that connected straight to the Abyss.
From the Portal Hundreds of Nightmare Beasts rushed out, all of them bloodthirsty, as if they wanted to devour everything.
The Nightmare Beasts attacked Janus at the same time, willing to rip him apart. However, just as their fangs were about to touch little Janus, they stopped.
In the distance, Chaos could be seen. His eyes were pitch black, making him appear Demonic. He was speaking some unknown language, but for some strange reason, the Nightmare Beasts were listening to his commands.
