"I could've destroyed it, You know." Ayensi said.
The darkness turned to white as if a switch was flicked.
"I will not be able to understand You in this form of consciousness..."
Right after Ayensi spoke, his whole being began changing its form. Even though it was his consciousness coming back to its normal state, his physical body was disappearing, turning into something ephemeral... or spectral.
The distortion of space was nothing to him.
Ayensi's consciousness was coming back to him. He was slowly leaving his humanity that he had long been vague now and completely submerged himself to his another form.
in this state, he will be able to understand the One that he had been searching for. He cannot wait any longer. How long had he been waiting for this time to come?
Ayensi wanted to jump on his other consciousness. He appeared everywhere and everywhen, in every dimension and every world.
Once he reaches this state, he is nigh omniscient and nigh-omnipotent.
However, that was not enough for the true omniscient and omnipotent being.
Just as he finally stepped onto this consciousness, he was kicked out of it, turning back to his human state.
"Hrgh..." Ayensi slightly grunted as he dispersed the beads of sweat that trickled down his face.
Soon, he smiled.
"Why not?" he said, asking the One why can't talk to It in person.
Yet, in the next moment, another person was in front of him.
Ayensi couldn't hide his shock. This person was neither a woman nor a man, fat nor thin, beautiful nor pretty...
But in the end, the person just looked like an average middle-aged man. Sometimes, a teenage girl.
However, Ayensi's mind soon adjusted and the person turned into a peaceful old man who is unperturbed about everything.
The person knows Ayensi's thoughts while the latter is aware of them. With simple eye contact, they have already made a full conversation until Ayensi didn't know what comes next.
No matter how deep his wisdom is, how can Ayensi tell the thoughts of a being with true free will?
The true random, something that the greatest computer can't compute - the Creator.
When Ayensi was stopped in his state ascension and the Creator came down with a form of a human, it is already telling him that it was Creator itself who want to reach Ayensi.
The Creator could've just made Ayensi disappear. Nothing is impossible for the Creator.
However, the Creator didn't.
This tells one thing and that is why Ayensi had asked.
"What do You want me to do?"
"Do not fight back, child." the old man replied. His voice was nothing special.
"I have already seen everything."
"Humans"
The old man replied.
"..." Ayensi then frowned and thought.
'Asking the purpose for it is useless. It does things without a reason. It does things just because It is.'
Replying to Ayensi's thoughts, the old man said, "No"
Ayensi was just about to reach a conclusion when It denied him. He then smiled.
"You replied to the notion that you may come from humanity as well. I wonder what's the explanation for that."
Formulating many theories, Ayensi said the most probable.
"You're lying"
How can the Creator be a liar when Its words are reality?
The old man didn't go further into that topic which made Ayensi confirmed something.
"You cannot kill."
"What if I don't want to?" Ayensi chuckled as he walked towards the old man.
"You can't do anything to me. Even if You can do everything, it doesn't matter since nothing gets me. Kill me? I know too well that You're aware I don't care if I die. Bring me to hell? You know I've been there and it just took my breath to freeze the fiery pits of it."
Ayensi encircled the old man while laughing with intimidation.
"Strip away my strength and turn me back to a normal human? I still have my consciousness. Even if You throw into Your personally-made hell while I'm a weak mortal, I can crawl myself up.
"Take my consciousness away from me? Make me mentally weak? If you do that, are you really torturing Ayensi Sole Tiowen? A lower version of me is not ME! This does not only apply to me but everyone as well. An entity's existence is everything in its life. If you take away something from me, You will be just messing with a whole another entity."
Ayensi's smile turned wicked as his physical form became bigger as he encircles THE God.
"So Creator, what can You do to me if I don't obey you?
"Creator, I have been observing you from the very start. You're prideful and a giant liar. However, what can mortals do? Even if You're the most evil, what can they do? They can only praise and worship You."
Ayensi stopped and he was already a hundred times bigger than the unperturbed old man.
"If you don't kill me right here, right now, I will just come back and destroy the things You created. I am not Your second Lucifer, I killed the devil...
"I am Your monster!"
Ayensi Sole Tiowen, the only person who tried to intimidate and even threatened the Creator.
Reality began bending as Ayensi tried to reach for the old man. However, the small distance between them was actually larger than many spaces combined.
Still, Ayensi's actions were never pointless.
However, the old man spoke in the next moment that stopped him.
"Ayensi, you think you're a threat to me?"
Ayensi's eyes squinted as he slowly turned back to his original size but not that it matter with broken space.
"You asked me a question..." he was in disbelief.
The old man's face twitched, but soon, his face relaxed and continued;
"If you do as I say, I will fulfil your, a half's wish."
Ayensi's brows burrowed and slightly gritted his teeth which, like the old man, he calmed himself down.
"I guess You're the only one who dares to call me a half. So what wish of mine will You fulfill when I already have and can do everything?"
Okay, this is a hard chapter to write. What's happening here is that the Creator knows Ayensi's thoughts and Ayensi is aware of it.
The Creator then knows that Ayensi is aware of it and then Ayensi knows that the Creator knows that he is aware of it...
It goes on until Ayensi reaches the limit since the Creator is absolutely unpredictable.
It's okay not to understand what they meant with their words. However, I'm not saying that their conversation has nothing to do with the story.
