The Primordial Recordchapter 569: re-entering the universe

Rowan's body shook a bit as the white flames entered his Mental Space with a great roar, it took the form of a pillar of flames more than a million feet high and as the white flames descended it lit up a corner of the Mental Space for countless miles, and it began to spread, creating a vast field of white flames.

Rowan immediately sensed a great aura of grandeur and arrogance emanating from these flames, it was majestic and seemed that it wanted to cover his entire Mental Space with the appearance it took.

This flame was very powerful, but the environment it found itself was incredibly hostile, and if it wanted to be the most dominant power Rowan controlled, it would have its work cut out for it.

He could not help but smirk when he felt a blooming intelligence inside this flame like a child who was waking up from a long nap. Indeed, this sentiment came to life as a patch of white flames at its center swirled around and a small body emerged.

This child was like an emerging emperor who was waking up to his Dominion, the figure resolved itself, and it turned out to be that of a little kid resembling a four-year-old boy with chubby cheeks rising up in the middle of the flaming field that was now precisely 999 miles in diameter.

He appeared lifelike, he was breathing and Rowan could see the small veins in his neck throbbing with blood.

The child was wearing a robe of white flames, and his eyes were closed, his cheeks were red and chubby like an apple, and if not for the fact that he was thousands of feet tall, the baby would have all the appearance of a mortal child.

The child yawned, the sound carried far, and his eyes opened, and they were white with no pupils inside as if he was blind. He looked around and took in a deep breath and a beautiful grin broke out on his face.

He slowly stood up and began walking on his field of white fire while looking around Rowan's vast Mental Space that was filled with darkness for countless miles.

There was something about the innocent laughter in the eyes of this child that made Rowan pause, and his plan to seize its mind and wipe it away while filling it with one of his Consciousness Pillars was placed on hold.

He became curious about the actions of this child and the direction this Aspect was heading towards.

Hearing the sound of water below him, the child's ears perked up and he disappeared, only to appear at the edge of the field of white fire and look at the Primordial Sea of Darkness below him.

His bright eyes looked with curiosity at the black water and he floated down and gingerly brought a finger to touch the water, with a cute scream he drew back his finger and placed it in his mouth, and he began to pout as he looked at the sea below in anger.

The anger and pain in his eyes were wiped away when he saw a bright sun sail overhead, the child laughed and began pursuing the sun followed by the field of white flames behind him.

Rowan was both fascinated and amused by this interaction.

With the appearance of this Aspect inside his Mental Space, the knowledge of its function began to stream into his mind, but he placed that matter aside, he needed to leave now.

The sense of urgency in his heart reached a feverish pitch and Rowan turned to the universe he had emerged from.

"BASTARD!!! Where are you hiding? You have stolen from the House of Endirius. Kneel and accept your punishment!"

The female voice that Rowan recognized was emerging from the distance, not waiting to find out who was coming, Rowan covered his body with the bluish-white light of the Astrolabe and instead of vanishing like he previously did, he transformed into a beam of light as he headed towards the universe.

The distance between him and the universe was presently very vast, and in the short while when he was awakening his Spirit Matrix, the universe had moved away from him as their position was not fixed.

As he moved closer to the universe, he began to feel a repulsive force pushing him away, but it was not as intense as he thought. That was before he felt a hand brush through his body and he felt a click inside of him.

Rowan instantly became aware that what happened was the universe unlocking the gates to allow him entrance inside of it. As a child of this universe that still fell under the power level threshold, he was still allowed passage.

If he remained with his previous powers, even if he was accepted as a child of this universe, he would be rejected from entering it. The universe seemed to have a safety measure that would extend the distance between itself and anything it rejected to infinity, and so it did not matter how fast he could move, he could not cross an infinite distance.

A blaze of starlight and flames surrounded him and he vanished, everything returned to silence for a while before a great force erupted in the distance and a bright light shone as a passage of fire opened itself and something materialized from it.

It was a carriage being pulled by seven headless giants. The giant's bleeding necks regularly pumped blood that fell down their stomach where a mouth with a long black tongue waving about tried to catch as much of the falling liquid as possible.

Behind the carriage, the skull of Rowan that had been frozen in stone was being pulled behind, held by chains of flames.

The giants soon stopped precisely where Rowan and the creature had made their transaction, and for a moment only the sound of the blood pumping from the necks of the giants and their lapping tongues could be heard, but then they suddenly went still, even the blood pumping from their necks froze in place.

A slim and fair hand emerged from the window of the carriage, on the pinkie finger was a massive red ring that had a spinning sun inside of it.
