I AM NO PAWN TO THE GODS (STORY OF SOLANKY)

Solanky then opened the third vertical eye on the forehead of the Supremo's body and looked at his source-defying body before him. Its body seemed to be transparent, allowing him to see all the internal organs and spiritual source energies coursing through its veins.

Solanky was shocked because even with his source-defying body using his eye observation technique, he couldn't observe his body in detail like that. Solanky then closed the vertical eyes on his forehead and stood up from his sitting position with his Supremo body. The moment his Supremo body moved, the space of ten light-years around him stilled with time, matter, causality, and the laws all paused from their flowing state. Solanky turned and waved his hand. The moment he did that, the space around that hand was reduced to nothing.

Solanky was shocked, and he understood why his future self told him not to use his Supremo body before the great impending war with the devils. He then placed his hand down and walked closer to the source-defying the body sitting unmoving before him. He then used his eye observation technique with the eyes of the Supremo body. The moment he did that, he seemed to peek into the past, and in that past, he saw eight powerful beings, all comparable to infinite source gods. The eight figures seemed to be observing a huge diagram of an unknown powerful being carved flawlessly onto the surface of the moon of a planet.

Solanky focused on the moon, and all he could see was the figure of a beast that looked like a flightless dragon with three horns and a pitch-black, scaly, armored body. Just by watching the diagram of the beast, Solanky felt some kind of familiarity with that being and felt only his Supremo body was worthy to peek at the diagram of that beast. The eight infinite source gods all created small continents around that moon to stay and comprehend the life structure of that being. Solanky, who was observing from the future, could only watch as it played before him like a memory fragment.

With the presence of the eight source gods and their power, no being dared disturb them in their learning process. One of the eight beings said to the others, "Let us compare our studies and theories about this mysterious diagram." The other seven all agreed and exchanged their concepts; they noticed that each of them was thinking about the shiny black scales of the being before them. The first being who spoke said, "Hey, my life and death friends, let's all try to draw an armor with the inspiration of the diagram's scales and later combine them to craft a powerful armor."

They all agreed with that suggestion; they all created different versions of armor based on their comprehension and their perspective or angle they viewed the scales of that powerful being. Several years passed, and these infinite-source gods had crafted countless powerful armors, but they still felt the armors they had created, although having some special abilities, still paled in comparison to the scaly armor of the diagram in reference. Solanky, watching this, was amazed because the countless armors these eight beings crafted, the least among them in terms of quality alone, were compared to mid-tier supreme divine secret source artifacts, and most of them belonged to the top-tier grade, with perfect grades appearing once every hundred years of their crafting.

The eight infinite source gods have been the best at crafting weapons and treasures. All identified a central problem during their 100,000 years of crafting treasures about the scale of the diagram, and the problem was that the materials they used in crafting were all mediocre to craft a single perfect treasure or artifact that carried the basic aura essence of the diagram. They almost gave up after that because they had left their infinite source worlds just to craft a weapon or an artifact on the same level as that diagram, and their materials and resources were almost depleted due to the countless treasures they forged.

As they were about to disperse, they saw a golden-armored humanoid figure appear out of the nothingness, and the aura and pressure he emanated were even stronger and more powerful than that of the diagram on the moon. The golden-armored humanoid figure tossed out a huge corpse of what seemed to be the actual beast of the diagram carved onto the moon and gave the eight infinite source gods a manual and technique they could use to craft the perfect body with the use of the corpse and manual.

The infinite source gods all thanked the golden figure. The golden figure looked straight at Supremo Solanky, observing from the future, and smiled. Then the golden armored figure disappeared. Supremo Solanky was shocked because he couldn't tell the power level of that golden-armored figure, and he saw the golden-armored figure look at him and smile before disappearing.

Solanky then looked at the corpse tossed out by the golden armored figure, and from the pressure alone, he deduced that the corpse of that beast belonged to a powerful entity that lived beyond the unknown boundless source world, which meant that corpse was way stronger than any infinite source god, and it specialized in physical and spiritual body strength, but the golden armored figure still managed to slay it without destroying its body.

Solanky began asking himself questions like, "Who is that golden armored figure? Where is he/she from? Is there any other being like that in existence? How did he/she slay this powerful entity without any physical confrontation?" Solanky stopped thinking about that golden armored figure and watched the eight infinite source gods who sat around the huge corpse of the powerful being, which was measured in millions of light-years.

The eight infinite gods enlarged their bodies to their optimum sizes, which reached a few billion light-years tall. This didn't shock Solanky because his source-defying body alone at the perfect source god level was six billion light-years tall in its optimum form. The eight infinite source gods brought out the manual that the golden-armored figure gave them; they opened the manual and began speaking in an unknown voice, which Solanky didn't even recognize as a language.

After they spoke that language, several different colors of fire shot out from the manuals towards the corpse and started burning on the surface of the corpse. Solanky could see four different colors of fire: he could see a blue ice flame (which froze the spatial time around everything it touched), a crimson red flame (which burnt away the causality and karma of everything it came into contact with), a golden yellow flame (which purified everything it came into contact with, making it ready for its intended use), and a black flame (which melted and reduced everything in its path; even abstract concepts were no exceptions, and it held the most destructive power of all the flames).

The flames kept burning on the corpse, and after a million years, all the hard, shiny scales of the corpse were burnt off, with only the bones remaining, which took another million years before everything was burnt into ashes. The eight infinite source gods began the tampering process. During this time, Solanky saw that the manuals were all tossed into the ashes, and they were completely melded with the burning ash, and he could see two metallic silver boards emerge from the ashes.

The moment he saw this, he recognized them to be the two liquid silver boards that formed a glove on his hands back then in the god realms treasury.
