The Monarch-Chapter 711: The creator

At that moment, Kayden was completely isolated in a unique and peculiar world. As soon as he arrived, he was flooded with countless sensations; it felt as if he had never breathed in his life, as if from the moment he was born until yesterday he had been a blind man, as if none of his senses had ever truly functioned throughout his entire life.

His mind was at a completely different peak than before. Kayden looked into the past and felt that he had been a complete imbecile, a being utterly incapacitated, something that had never used more than two of his neurons together. The difference was insane.

The moment he set foot in that world, he was able to fully understand what pressure was; he was able to completely comprehend that law. In just a few minutes, he fully mastered that law... and added it to his path. This process was practically instantaneous; in only a few minutes, he gained a small percentage of his total strength.

This speed of learning should not have been something a being should be capable of; it was unethical, it was ridiculous. A god could also do this, but to place a law into a divine path would require an effort trillions of times greater, while for Kayden it was merely something simple.

The lesser laws were completely disassembled before him. Kayden felt as if he were assembling a Lego game with the laws of the universe at that moment. Every small law that appeared within his reach was brought before his eyes, observed, and then completely dismantled. In seconds, he was capable of learning everything a law could teach him.

After only a few days, Kayden had already learned thousands of laws and attached only a few units to his path. Even though he could stack hundreds of thousands of laws, Kayden understood that this would only bring him strength through quantity; there would not truly be great quality in doing so.

As soon as that world ceased to have any value to Kayden... he began to absorb it. First, the things around him ceased to exist: the air, the stones, the trees, the mountains, the grass. Everything was completely evaporated, leaving not even traces that it had ever existed.

It took only a few seconds for Kayden’s absorption to reach the cities and consume the people. In the blink of an eye, entire civilizations were completely eradicated from that world. After only a few minutes, that entire world was transformed into energy.

No god was even able to speak a single word before being killed; not even those at the third level were capable of making a single movement. They simply disappeared from existence without any chance of resistance. In only a few minutes, that entire world was consumed.

The universe soon tried to restore balance and force the creation of things. Kayden watched this process unfold before him, and it was so beautiful that he became completely lost in what he was doing. Kayden failed to maintain his focus, and in seconds a new world was built, with forms of life different from before and new laws.

Meanwhile, Kayden saw the world before him being reconstructed in a peculiar way. There was a law in it, a law that was restoring that balance. This law was extremely similar to the karmic law; it was extremely alike, yet at the same time extremely different.

Kayden destroyed and reconstructed that world a few hundred times and learned everything he was able to, but unfortunately it was something far above his power at that moment... or at least, it should have been.

In a short time, his knowledge of that law was sufficient for him to do something extremely peculiar. Kayden called that law the Law of Creation. It was capable of creating literal lives and everything that existed, based on what he observed, and after only a little learning he did something that all gods did at the end of their lives.

An entire world was created inside his spatial pocket, in the same place where Kayden stored millions of things, including his special tea. He had always kept vast constructions and objects stored there, but he had never had life; he had never been capable of creating a stretch of land and placing real trees there.

The trees and seeds he possessed for his tea were merely frozen in time. He was not capable of giving them life, nor even of making them bear fruit inside that space. Hundreds of things were missing—hundreds of laws capable of fully complementing all the necessary points for life to exist.

The law of time was flowing normally, the law of space was connected to it, the basic laws of fire, water, air, and earth were completely perfect. Everything was in perfect balance. Kayden finally understood the meaning of being a god, the meaning of being a creator, and...

"The heavens recognize the talent of Kayden Heart as a creator." The perfect voice of the celestials echoed in Kayden’s mind and in the minds of all the gods who walked the same path he was venturing upon. "From this day onward, your creation is connected to the world of souls."

It was a simple sentence, but Kayden felt a ridiculous difference. His world began to create rational lives—lives capable of thought. Many souls began to descend and were...

Brutally repelled by Kayden. A great barrier was erected within his world, and trillions of souls began to strike against it without success. The path of life was truly merciless. In seconds, Kayden saw a bizarre number accumulate around his world, but it was not enough to make him perform even a single movement.

Kayden began to shape that world according to his will, from the smallest point in the grass to the largest mountains. Everything was made according to his will, and at the same time it was not. Kayden found himself incapable of governing the will of the world—something had been born without him realizing it. There was a soul in his world, and many factors were controlled by it.

That soul was a mortal soul and, at that moment, completely irrational. It was incapable of speaking or demonstrating real thoughts. Even so, this opened some thoughts for Kayden. The first was about how all worlds must therefore possess souls; previously, he had believed that only universes did. That soul was extremely hidden and, at the same time, had no difference from an ordinary soul.

Few gods possessed the capacity to manipulate souls to an extreme degree, and an even smaller number had the courage to manipulate mortal souls merely as a hobby. This was a field reserved only for the insane—and at that moment, Kayden stepped into that field.
