Chapter 17: Light-bringerOne{T.O.A.A} (POV)



Lightbringer One: (Point of View)

As I awoke in the void, darkness surrounded me. I looked around and saw... nothing. Nothing at all. Only a white, endless plane of existence. Yet, I knew my form—radiant and golden. How did I know this? Because I possess omniscient knowledge, the awareness of everything: what will happen, who will be born, and who will not.

Time passed as I floated aimlessly in this infinite realm, growing weary of the monotony. My boredom pushed me to act. Gathering energy into my hand, I formed a blazing sphere of power and hurled it forward.

BAM!

The energy exploded, sending ripples through the void. The white plane around me began to shift, transforming into darkness. This blackness, I realized, was the first cosmos—space itself, born from my energy. As I explored this newborn realm, I witnessed the stars ignite, formed by the residual energy of my blast. These celestial lights filled me with a sense of fulfillment. Creation had begun.

But my joy was short-lived. A disturbance echoed through the cosmos. Something reacted to my stars, emerging from the void itself. I recognized the entity instantly—it was Anti-All, my counterpart, the embodiment of darkness and destruction. Its sole purpose was clear: to annihilate everything I had created.

Instinctively, I prepared for battle. Summoning my energy, I forged a shield capable of blocking any attack, a sword radiating pure power, and a helmet—admittedly, for style. As Anti-All materialized, its presence warped reality, drawing the void closer.

We clashed.

As Our The Battle Begins

The cosmos trembled under the force of our blows. Each strike sent shockwaves that tore through dimensions, creating and destroying multiverses,universes, galaxies in mere moments. My sword collided with Anti-All's void tendrils, each strike crackling with energy beyond comprehension. Planets ,Galaxies formed and disintegrated in the wake of our battle.

Anti-All's void manipulation threatened to consume me, but I countered with reality-warping attacks, reshaping the battlefield. Our powers were evenly matched, but I began to sense something amiss. Despite my omnipotence, I could not overpower Anti-All.

Suddenly, a new player entered the fray: Dr. Carlo Zorda, a malevolent figure from the future. Using his advanced technology, Zorda amplified Anti-All's power, tipping the balance in its favor. My strikes became weaker, and my defenses faltered.

At that moment, a portal opened, and five defenders from the future appeared: Dr. Strange, Daredevil, Namor, Hulk, and Luke Cage. They joined forces, channeling their energy into me. With their aid, my power surged, and I pushed back against Anti-All.

However, to my confusion, even with the defenders' strength, I couldn't gain the upper hand. Something was wrong—my foresight told me I should have won this battle.

The Voice of the World and Self-Doubt

As despair began to creep in, an all-encompassing voice reverberated through the cosmos:

"The Almighty God has decided to interfere."

As despair began to creep in

Everyone froze—Anti-All, the defenders, even Zorda. The authority in the voice was undeniable.

Dr. Strange gasped. "This... This shouldn't be possible. Is this... the God of Abrahamic faiths?"

The defenders were stunned. Namor muttered, "How can such an entity exist here?"

The voice continued, commanding absolute authority:

"ERASE."

A wave of incomprehensible energy swept through the battlefield. Anti-All, the primordial embodiment of destruction, writhed in agony as its consciousness was obliterated. Blood dripped from its being as it was reduced to a dormant force for balance.

As the Voice of the World continued speaking, I began to feel... small. Doubt crept into my mind like a shadow. Was I truly the embodiment of creation and order? I had always believed I was the sole creator, the highest authority in existence. But hearing the Voice of the World, I could no longer be certain.

What am I? Why was I born?

Meanwhile, I focused inward, searching for answers.

The cosmos around me shifted once more, and I found myself in a white void—not the endless plane I once knew, but a realm saturated with overwhelming light. At the center stood a magnificent throne.

I stepped closer, and my breath caught. A figure sat upon the throne, but their form was obscured by an aura of radiant, incomprehensible light. Even with my omniscient sight, I could not perceive anything and see what person sitting on throne look like..

Summoning my courage, I spoke: "Are you the Almighty God? The one the Voice of the World spoke of?"

The figure did not answer immediately. Instead, the light seemed to pulse, carrying a profound silence that was louder than any sound. I felt my doubts deepen—if this being truly existed beyond my comprehension, then what was I? What was my purpose?

As I waited for an answer, the light grew brighter, and I realized I was standing before a power far beyond even my understanding.

"Yes, child. I am known by many names—God, Almighty, The Beginning, The End, and countless others. I am the Creator, the Operator, and the Destroyer of everything and anything that exists, will exist, or may never exist. I am everything and anything."

The Lightbringer remained silent for a moment before asking, "Then what is my purpose? Why was I even born?"

"Child",God replied, "let me tell you. When there is nothing, I exist. I observe and create or you can say brings forth a new beginning. All of existence itself i divided into 99 layers. Your layer is the 91st one.

"Why did I create you? The reason is simple. I have given all beings free will—to create, to populate, and to bring forth life. You, however, are the maintainer of the 91st layer. Through you, the beginning begins."

As GOD paused briefly, then continued, "As for the end... that is not your concern for now. My child, it is time for you to go and create."

With those words, I was transported to the 91st layer, as God had said. At last, the path forward became clear. 

"Haha, I thought I was the Creator and Order. But now I know what I am. From now on, I will be known as Lightbringer One—not T.O.A.A., as they will call me in the future."
