Chapter 684 Infinity
Just like the divine being and the red-haired, red-eyed man calling himself the Vampire God, many such instances happened all around the cosmos as the red beam pierced through the space-time continuum of each universe.
Beings not in the God realm didn't even realize what was happening while the ones in the God realm could see a small glimpse and make out something was wrong.
The entirety of the cosmos moved towards the distancing red beam, trying to stop this ominous thing.
This red beam was nothing but Lilith who was travelling faster than even the expansion of the cosmos.
Her body was getting torn and regenerated inch by inch and hence it gave the blood red shade to her fast movement.
Lilith was undergoing her life's biggest ascension, the witness of which was the entire cosmos.
It wasn't just the galaxies, but the entirety of the multiverse that was witnessing it.
The people that tried to catch her were never able to do so and their efforts were in vain.
Lilith traversed out, out, and out of the multiverse, eventually reaching a point where space and time could be seen slowly expanding forwards while the entire cosmos appeared like a sphere containing an infinite amount of shiny marbles.𝔫𝑂𝑣𝑒𝓁𝚞𝓈𝓫.𝓒𝞸𝗆
Lilith sat down in a lotus position at the edge of the space-time expansion, observing everything in the cosmos while her body degenerated and regenerated.
Time had apparently stopped for her in this place and when she would try to move ahead of this expansion, she would seemingly start to fade away from existence and blend within the cosmos, not dying, but assimilating with each and everything present, be it a tiny pebble, a mortal, a God, or the ever expanding space.
Lilith had touched upon the truest meaning of infinity at this stage and she was slowly taking in all the information she could.
As Lilith continued to gaze at the cosmos, she could see herself a few moments ago touching upon true death. But then she was saved by a silver beam which was nothing but help sent by her future self to her.
This was the second time Lilith had stumbled upon her future self. Previously, it was when Lucas had regressed, she had sent vital information to her own past self, informing her of the important things.
Here Lilith came to know that becoming a Legendary Rank was just touching upon the God realms. The vast depths of it were yet to be explored and the universe was much bigger than she initially thought it to be.
However, now, as Lilith was looking at the cosmos, the multiverses within it, she smiled and said softly, "the universe is not big."
"Neither is it small."
"The universe is infinite."
Terms such as big or small were useless when it came to actual infinity.
Big things and small things were relative.
For example, from the perspective of an ant on a small millimetre space of a ten kilometre long strip of street, it could be seen that the gravel is stretched till infinity, when it was just finite.
From the perspective of a bacteria, even a tiny 10 ml jar would seem infinite space and it could think it was infinitely big.
Infinity was something that lay beyond everything.
It was a concept of nature, a principle in which the cosmos worked.
If there was no concept of infinity, space and time would never stretch ahead and would halt at some or the other point.
Even as Lilith was looking at the tiny sphere containing the multiverses, it was ever expanding and moving towards infinity.
Infinity had no end and if it did, it wouldn't be infinity.
The concepts of the cosmos were strange but amusing.
Lilith had learnt everything there was and she could now easily peer into the past and future.
Due to this, she was starting to become fully omniscient but knowing it would only be bad for her, she stopped in a timely manner and didn't let herself become that.
Ahead of the space-time expansion where there was assimilation, it was making her omnipresent. That too, was a bad thing.
Lilith's only goal in life was to be with her children and watch them do their things. If she became omniscient, there wouldn't be any fun to it.
Not to mention, becoming omniscient was actually making her have suicidal thoughts.
Once Lilith stopped herself, she learnt about the cosmos some more and finally stopped when she felt it was enough and learning anything more was just useless information.
She got up from her lotus position and examined herself. Her body was shining and she seemed to have become even more beautiful than before.
"Nice. I hope my babies give me more attention now, fufufu." Lilith was just joking with herself.
Her body had apparently removed all the things related to her being a vampire at first, but then it came back with an even better version of it.
She was still a vampire, but a much better and stronger version of it.
Once Lilith was done examining herself, she turned to look at one particular spot in the cosmos.
It was the world she came from and her babies resided.
Lith was still sleeping and Lucy had woken up and was ruling over the society.
Nothing seemed to be going wrong and Lilith was happy with this development.
She then decided it was time to unseal the world and have it join its previous solar system.
Her uncle and his friend had burnt their life force to seal it, she respected them for it, but it was a pity that they were no more.
Both of them had been assimilated within the cosmos and reached the truest form of death. Even if Lilith tried to pull them back from there, it won't end well as their soul was scattered in infinitesimally small pieces everywhere.
Lilith did a small bow to show her respect to her uncle and his friend and finally, put her hand forwards and did a turning action with it, making the world vanish.
She turned her hand again in the opposite direction and the world reappeared, this time at the edge of the planetary system of the Evure God Clan.
Lilith wasn't worried about those guys even in the slightest. Things were relaxed.
What she cared for most is:
"I wonder what my children's reaction will be, knowing their mother is…"
Lilith flashed a big smile and shook her head. She didn't finish her sentence and instead flapped her wings once and vanished from her spot, reappearing back in Nightingale.
