★270
In the next unfolding, everything was multiplied. One day, I summon the three after receiving a word from the Great Light. Our meeting took place in the Garden when we first met Elara. Everyone was seated in their own customised throne of light/aura/darkness. I was the only one standing next to mine.
"Word has passed down."
I said, and they were surprised and ready for the news.
"After a long period of time observing, I made a suggestion, and it was approved."
"I hope you asked for the right thing?"
Belenos complained, but I ignored her.
"From this point onwards, each newborn Star will be under the guardianship of their Lord from above."
"Huh? That has always been the case, hasn't it?"
"The Pond is limitless, and you're to take a fraction as you see fit. Any Star under that fraction will be your guardian."
"You could've said so straightforward."
Belenos sighed.
"You talk more than your face permits."
Elara teased.
"And what's that supposed to mean?"
"You look more mature on the outside, but you can't suppress that mouth of yours."
Kenos spoke for the first time, orbs of voids orbiting behind him.
"Challenge accepted. The fight is due after this meeting."
"Not that I have a place to rule nor do I understand one's feelings, won't they say otherwise?"
Kenos ignored her also, and I was practically giving him a thumbs up for his understanding.
"My Domain is too large for me to rule alone. I won't mind your presence within me."
At this point, I began to wonder why she was allowed here in the first place.
"Are the orbs your Drops?"
Belenos inquired, and Kenos simply shook his head.
"We are not ruling them, Kenos. We are simply guiding them and keeping the Pond peaceful."
I intervened, correcting his earlier mistake.
"Makes sense..."
"I see. You all know, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on the group of Stars called Azurers"
She is curious.
"They are well organised."
"More organised than you are."
Elara teased before adding.
"I am not in a position to tell you what to do, but leaving such a group would be a shame."
"I know."
"What about those Constellation called Scorpios? I'm sure they're more promising than the Azurers."
"If only they're camping in Solaria, I'd be grateful."
"They're prideful. That's a pipe dream, so don't even bother chasing them."
"Not to mention their aggressive nature and strength."
Kenos backed me up.
"Let's keep them aside for now. Back to the Azurers, there will be the first race and the first organised race of Stars, so they will be joining us.
Naturally, regular Stars like us are a race of our own, so it won't be a problem if we're the first race. However, the Azure Stars are a new species."
I responded.
"They? I thought they organised themselves and selected the best among them?"
"They did, and he is on his way here after meeting with His Grace."
They were all shocked, surprised, and disappointed.
Only I can have a one-on-one meeting with the First Light, but the fact that a Star who was not born in the Palace or Garden was blessed by His Grace was a huge disappointment for them.
As I was about to continue, the doors opened, revealing a man with long light blue hair, dressed in the same azure-like dress, who walked calmly and stood before us.
He bowed before speaking.
"It is a magnificent honour to meet you all, but it was dwarfed by my presence in this otherworldly land, and finally, no words exist to express my state of being while I was under the same roof as the First Light."
'He is weird.'
'As expected of a Star who's never been up here.'
Belenos and Elara thought while Kenos kept his closed eyes on the newcomer.
"Welcome, Lord Azureon."
I said politely, which left the others mine blown
"L..Lord?"
"You've got to be kidding."
"Not even the Abyss foresaw this unexpected act."
Elara, Belenos, and Kenos all had their words (respectively). But I ignored it, I had my own reasons for addressing him this way.
"Now take a seat."
I gestured.
He stood straight and walked to an empty space next to Belenos. He spread his palm, moulding his aura to a throne, which looked odd from ours. As expected from a Star born within the Hyperworlds.
"Forgive me, for I'm still but a child."
"Don't worry, I'd be glad to show you the ropes."
It goes without saying that only she can sprout stuff like that. Azureon only nodded with a faint smile. Which irritated Belenos.
"Do you all behave like that?"
She was talking to Azureon while pointing at Elara.
"Order."
As the word left my mouth, Belenos collected herself instantly. Elara is slightly immune to my God's Voice, maybe because she isn't a Star. I left Azureon while Kenos wasn't there to feel the weight, so he's immune.
Something I need to take care of.
"Tell us more about your kind, Lord Azureon."
"My kind is called Azurer or Azure Star. It was named after me. A peaceful race capable of resolving all issues peacefully. Many felt abandoned because they were not under the influence of the High One, but I was there to keep them calm. My influence grew day after day until I discovered this..."
Light blue energy can be seen roaming freely on top of his palm.
"Impossible... aura are some aspects of energy that can take shape, but this....is pure energy."
Belenos gasped. Everyone was surprised, and he was right.
"I call it Azure, and since it is pure energy, the energy will be known as Azure energy. It is a trait that only the Azurer can use or manipulate. Because we can convert natural energy into Azure energy at some point. I'm one of the two who can achieve such a feat."
I can relate to it because I hardly use aura to shape anything, but instead, I manipulate my energy directly to create what I want. Energy which is said to be a universal force that bridges into different forms. To be able to convert energy into azure energy, the Azure will be a formidable foe for any facing them.
(Magic/star/natural energy can be converted to Azure energy. Not Energy.)
"You're extremely unique. He may not have the same Divinity as us, but he is capable of something we can not do for the time being. I will gladly welcome him."
Belenos stated.
"Even I can not perfectly interact with energy to some extent. I would be happy to learn a few tricks from him."
Elara added. She's bluffing, but that doesn't matter.
"I negate energy; you convert energy. We are not exactly alike in some ways. I have no problem."
Followed by Kenos.
"Well, you're officially one of us now. Now then.."
Elara cut off my word.
"Us? Who's us? We need something like a group name or something. I already have a name in mind."
"Great minds think alike, but you've said enough already. How about Supernovae?"
"Great minds think alike my ass. We're not actual Stars, you know? I prefer Omni, obtained from Omnipotent meaning all-powerful"
I think this is the first time Belenos used her brain. (1:1)
"I'd side with Belenos."
Kenos siding with his twin (2:1)
"Supernovae aren't bad either. A Star goes Supernova once it's reached its limits, right? We're Stars who've gone past our limits."
Elara backed up (2:2)
"Why not use both then, since they both make sense and represent our status?"
Azureon took both sides.
"Lord Azureon's decision is what'll determine our name."
"Not fair. Why is he getting special treatment all the time?"
Belenos practically pouted.
"I took a vote, and it came out as a draw. His decision had determination. Since he chose both names, it's still a draw, so we're officially the Omni or Supernovae. Does anyone have something to add?"
"Why is Azureon being called Lord and the others not? Gender doesn't apply to me, so don't bother giving me one."
Belenos complained again.
"Fine then, from today henceforth, we call each other with our given/chosen title or add honorifics."
"Lady Elara or Goddess of Life."
"Lady and Lord are inapplicable. Deity of Sun shall suffice."
"Void Emperor."
His title earned him some eyes.
"Lord First, Lord Acamar or Supreme Star."
"And the Golden One."
Lady Elara added, I couldn't fight back because I made the rules. All eyes turned on the last person, Azureon.
"Lord Azureon or... Primal Lord of Azure."
"Anything else?"
"Lord and Lady are too mortal. How about Eternal? Eternal Belenos."
She nodded in satisfaction, liking how it sounds.
"It does sound pretty cool. Eternal Elara."
She smiled in response.
"Ok. Anything else?"
"The others didn't agree."
Belenos complained yet again.
"We're totally on board, right?"
Kenos asked, and Eternal Azureon nodded.
"Satisfied?"
I asked, and she smiled, happy, I guess.
"So."
They all shook their heads without waiting for me to ask again.
"This concludes the first Omni meeting."
I said before disintegrating into golden light.
"Till we meet again."
The Deity of Sun said before disappearing leave a speck of gold dust, the Void Emperor left without any disturbance followed by Lady Elara, who also vanished without a trace.
The Primal Lord of Azure was all alone. He thought for a moment before teleporting along with his throne.
And so with the formation of the Supernovae/Omni, the ever-ending expansion was monitored and guided leading to a new dawn of Star civilisation which I'd be lying if I said this great step didn't spark joy on His Grace's censored face.
It's happy and so was I and the same will be applied to all the Stars in the Pond. Time passed, and we multiplied from millions into billions in no time.
Eternal Azureon was the first to create an Art, Azure Art, for his people teaching his subordinate how to use Azure energy. The Deity of Sun and Eternal Elara followed his steps while doing the same, creating their own Arts but decided to relinquish theirs to my Mega Art, but Eternal Azureon didn't, and I was totally fine with it.
Kenos didn't have underlings nor did others find his Dark Art as he called it interesting even though it was an Art capable of rendering even some of my Mega Arts useless.
Unlike any other race, Stars are absolutely immortal. Literally, all can't be killed from any natural cause with others boosting their immortality and can resurrect or reincarnate after being killed.
Some Stars went further to the point where they could transfer part of their being (fragment of essence, consciousness, or even a concept of their own) to survive cataclysm destruction.
This normally works with Stars who create multiple clones or split embodiment. One has to destroy all clones or split selves and the real Star before fully killing them.
Killing the real body is futile as his clones or split self is still in existence.
(Stars are conventional as we don't need a spirit, soul, core, and the likes to survive. Destroying said Concept isn't enough to kill us. Most of them created these minors to enhance their immortality or for other purposes.)
Some also implemented similar procedures, as long as they have a certain conceptual form intact, they can't be killed permanently, but this comes with little flaws. For example, a Star creates an orb from its energy, as long as the orb isn't completely destroyed or somehow deactivated, they will be kept alive.
As for us, the Supernovae, I can say for a fact we transcend the realm of death. With Elara being a vessel for the Goddess of Creation, whose existence surpassed that of the Pond and the Supreme Star God himself, she can't be totally destroyed.
(Haha, he doesn't know. Not yet.)
Belenos has about eighgy the Great Holy Spirit of Light fragments in him as well as twenty from the Supreme Star God; these two alone grant him an indestructible body as he can spawn wherever Light is present and as long as the two doesn't support his death, he'll never perish. Not to mention, he's the embodiment of light as Kenos embodies void.
Kenos immortality is self-explanatory. You're merely interacting with a vessel of the paradoxical entity that can't be interacted with. As for Lord Azureon, he's working on them, and with time, he'll reach those heights.
Finally, I, Luminosity, Great Holy Spirit of Light, and my Creator, are my source of immortality. With our recent duels, I've found out that I possess a high regenerative ability that surpasses the rate of any destruction, including the rate at which void nullifies existence. So I don't expect an attack that can wipe me out. Concealment might probably be the only way to take care of some of us.
These are just the knowledge I have for now. All of us, including the Stars, are working harder to gain new heights.
To be continued...
