Chapter 15: T-Tim Burton?
As if taking all the light from the surroundings, everything turns black in an area of about 500 miles. No light is visible at all. The blackout continues to spread rapidly farther throughout the planet and finally the galaxy.
The entire Milky Way galaxy is completely dark. No matter how much the sentient beings in the galaxy try, no light will come forth.
This causes a huge disturbance amongst the gods of Earth and even other planets as this is a sign of a god-king awakening. Only God-king level beings causes phenomena such as this.
Even so, the level of worldly phenomena displayed is far too disturbing for it to be at a god-king level. To affect the entire galaxy to this degree is unheard of, even to the council of gods.
At this moment, they could not identify the god that was responsible for this phenomenon.
The only source of light in the entire galaxy is a giant cocoon 100m long and 50m wide.
Multicolored lights shine outside from within the cocoon, giving off a magnificent and awe-inspiring view of something magical inside. The colors of every spectrum, even the ones the human eye can't see, are now visible.
The feeling of something magical being formed inside makes an onlooker feel a sense of dutiful protection.
That magical something is Horus.
Right now, inside the cocoon, Horus's previous red blood is now undergoing a massive change. His blood cells are now being fully replaced with the EVO virus.
One must know that Horus's cells were occupied with the virus but the virus was not his being. The virus was never the entire makeup of his being.
However now, with his "death", the virus has free reign to insert itself into the very makeup of Horus's new body which is about halfway finished.
In conjunction with his Adaptation authority, Horus is receiving a major boost in powerful so significant, he could destroy 50 kilometers of land with ease.
Despite this boost in power, his soul was elsewhere.

In the Realm of Death,
Lady Death sits on a throne made of bones looking around desperately. She gets up and begins to search her entire realm. Not finding a single thing, she screams.
~Ahhhugh~
"Where is it? Where is the enigma? He was here. I know it," Lady Death says, in a frantic voice.
"I don't know what trick you're using to hide yourself, but it won't work. I'll destroy this entire realm to find you."
After saying that, Lady Death raises her hand and forms a ball of pure, utter darkness.
It grows and grows until it is several times larger than our sun.
"Still not coming out are you? Be destroyed."
As of having a life of its own, the death ball flies far into the distance.
Shortly after, a muffled explosion sounds from afar. Rumbling begins to shake the entire realm and a wave of pure darkness races past Lady Death. It destroyed everything in its path. Her minions included.
A while later, a "hmph" sound is heard in the eerie silence of the now-devoid Realm of Death.
"Pesky mortal. Dare to hide from me? Nothing can escape death."
Eyes wide open by the sheer display of strength Lady Death just displayed, Horus was gobsmacked.
'If I hadn't activated <Absolute Secrecy> to max stealth, I would surely be dead-dead right now. She destroyed her entire realm just to find me…' Horus thinks in mind, shivering at the ludicrous implications of him not being protected.
'Wait, she was looking for an enigma. Am I the enigma she was referring to? I guess I would be. Seeing as I can't die. It's impressive she gained that much about me in the first place.'
Deciding to check why he was sent here, as he knows she hadn't sensed the battle or his death, Horus drops his stealth and looks at Lady Death.
"Care to explain why you're blowing up realms to find me?" Horus asks Lady Death.
Turning around so fast, she leaves an afterimage in her wake as she speedily arrives in front of Horus.
"You… you're still alive? Your soul should have dissipated into nothingness. How are you still alive?"
"Of course, I'm still alive, Lady. Nothing from this universe can kill me," Horus responds confidently.
"Oh yeah? Let's—" Death didn't finish as she then swipes at Horus that is much too fast for him to see.
To her dismay, Horus is unperturbed. Her skeletal hand passes straight through Horus. Almost as though he was not there.
"Oh, you must be wondering why you weren't able to grab ahold of me. Allow me to explain…"
Horus claps after talking to Death for some time.
"Alright, looks like my time here is up," he announces to Death.
"Huh? What do you mean? Where are you going Enigma," Death asks concern and lonesomeness in her voice.
"I have matters to take care of back home. We'll talk later. You seem like a good person."
With the light glowing rapidly every second, Death rushes in front of him and says, "Allow me to bestow to you a Kiss of Death."
Shivering slightly at the implication of what that meant, Horus declines her offer.
"I am married. And besides… I'm not into Tim Burton's women. I need a bit of flesh on mine."
Confused, she asks, "T-Tim Burton? Who is that man? I am no one's woman!"
Enraged at the thought of being claimed by a man, Death tries to blast Horus to smithereens but fails to deal any damage. Horus just chuckles.
"Sayonara, you crazy b*tch. First, you try to kiss me. Now, you want to kill me? Yandere bitch."
It's always the deathly, gloomy-looking women that have something wrong with them.
In a flash, Horus disappears, but not before hearing Lady Death's last words.
"I will find you. Nothing can hide from Death."

Back inside the cocoon,
Upon entering his body, Horus's soul also begins to undergo an evolution as well.
A warm golden light envelops his soul that is accompanied by a warmth incomparable to anything he'd ever known to date.
'Ah. I can sleep forever like this,' Horus mentally says, enjoying the evolution. He can feel his passive, Divine Sense, undergoing a powerful metamorphosis; especially his brain.
Time passes by as Horus is fully formed and ready to break from his cocoon. He flexes his muscles and that's all it took for the cocoon to completely shatter into a million tiny, multicolored lights.
The world quakes as an invisible, but strong suction force emanates from Horus.
The darkness that permeated throughout the entire galaxy begins to recede. It was all being drawn back to Horus.
Descending from the sky in a pillar, the darkness pours into Horus who is floating in the sky.
This further enhances his physique as well as his soul to the peak of enhancement.
Once finished, Horus is there floating. A white-rainbow-ish aura surrounded him.
Gone is God of Destruction attire. That is replaced with a skin-tight, black-and-white suit that accentuates his muscular body. His eyes are ablaze with a fire so white-hot, it burns with a kaleidoscope of colors. Black pupils are inverted to white.
Opening his eyes, Horus sees in a new light. Literally!! He can now see every spectrum
Looking down at Hercules, he states in a reverberated cacophony of voices, "Rejoice. For you have defeated a god. You deserve a commemoration. Ah, yes. Death it is."
Horus begins to float down, a Blade of Ma'at appearing in his left hand.
Feeling dread overtake his entire being, Hercules begins to beg. He begs so much that he begins to sing praises to Horus. The mortal half of his side clinging to all forms of life.
"I can be your servant. I can tell you the plans we Grecian and Persian pantheons have planned for your African Continent. Please, spare me, Lord Horus. I bed of you."
Pausing a bit to look into Hercules's eyes, Horus smiles faintly. To anyone else looking, Horus would have a gentle smile on his face.
However, to Hercules, he saw Death and the Devil smiling at him. He knew for sure his death is coming sooner than he thought.
"You dared to fight a god. Do you think there are no consequences to your actions? Then, you desecrate a god's body. This is an egregious crime that cannot be overlooked," Horus replies, a benign look on his face as though he's getting satisfied with helping an old lady cross the street.
"No, Lord Horus. It was the crystal in my head's fault. I dared not do that to you. As I am also a Spartan in heart," frantic, Hercules rebuttals quickly.
~PLOP~
Hercules's left arm falls to the ground.
"AHHHHHHH"
Hercules screams in horror and pain at seeing his arm sliced off.
As the cut was so clean, it took a second for the arm to fall off and a second later for blood to spurt out.
"Horus, please. Stop," Hercules begs as he begins to back away.
Pressing forward at a steady pace, Horus speaks, "It's all right, Hercules. Your death will be swift. Embrace it."
Turning the complete opposite way, Hercules bolts away at an incredible speed.
Horus catches up and appears before him, "What're you running from?"
Not answering, Hercules volts over Horus just smiles.
Running at a quick pace behind him, Horus feints an attack which prompts Hercules to turn and punch.
This proves to be a major mistake as Horus uses a wind blade to slice right down the middle of his arm, straight from the knuckle to the shoulder. This attack disrupts Hercules's running as he then trips.
For many miles, Hercules is a skipping stone. Skidding to a halt, he breathes hard.
"Go ahead and kill me. My father will stop at nothing to get revenge," Hercules declares.
"I fear nothing. Your father scares me not. Say goodbye," after saying that, Horus lifts him by the hair and swiftly cuts one leg off.
Hercules screams in pain. Next is his right arm which was diagonally cut in half. When chopped off, it drops to the ground in two pieces.
"You motherfu—" Hercules is cutoff as Horus punches his face soo hard, his fist emerges from behind his skull. In his hand is the green crystal that implanted itself into Hercules's brain.
'This doesn't look anything special. It's dead now. I'll eventually find out why whoever placed such a thing in this universe.'
Thinking no further, Horus makes sure to completely erase the crystal from existence.
With Hercules dead, Horus decides to take a well-deserved sleep because the next events that are going to take are, will need his undivided attention.
Thinking this, Horus steps through a tear in space he made to the city of—
"WHAT THE F*CK?!"
