Chapter 1: Chapter1-The Birth of a King
In the infinite void there was a castle.
Not just a mere castle,ıt was a giant complex that was builded out of the most beatiful matterials in the multiverse.
Its towering spires shimmered with the light of stars yet unseen, crafted from metals that bent the fabric of space itself. The walls were made from a substance that shifted colors with every passing thought—sometimes translucent, sometimes radiant, and at times, as dark as the night sky. The marble floors beneath it gleamed with the essence of forgotten dreams, polished smooth by centuries of time and forgotten hands.
The castle stood suspended in the vast emptiness, untouched by time, though it held the weight of countless epochs. Its architecture defied logic—staircases that spiraled into nothingness, rooms that seemed to exist both outside and within, endless corridors that looped in on themselves like an intricate maze of infinity. Massive windows offered views of distant galaxies, constellations swirling beyond their panes, giving the illusion that the castle itself moved through the cosmos. Yet, despite the otherworldly grandeur of the castle, it was serene, untouched by the chaos of the void surrounding it.
Inside, the air was thick with the scent of ancient incense and the music of a world unknown, carried on the windless currents. Soft golden light emanated from unknown sources, bathing every surface in a glow that felt warm but distant. Portraits adorned the walls, not of people, but of worlds—strange landscapes, cities built on clouds, oceans that shimmered with light from beneath, creatures with forms that transcended the imagination. The eyes in these portraits followed visitors, always shifting just out of reach of comprehension.
At the heart of the castle was a vast hall, its ceiling lost in the sky above, an endless void above it, filled with swirling nebulas and distant suns. In the center stood a throne, but it was not an ordinary throne. It was crafted from the very fabric of existence, woven together with threads of light, shadow, and time. The throne shimmered with a presence, as if it was waiting for something—or someone.
There was a person walking through the corridors of the castle. His presence echoed with the weight of millennia, his footsteps resonating in harmony with the castle's ancient walls. He was a figure known across dimensions, though by many names: Xeno Lucid, Lucifer, or simply "The Fallen." He was one of the sons of the Holy İgris, the supreme being whose light had once illuminated the farthest reaches of the multiverse. But now, Xeno Lucid walked with a quiet intensity, his purpose steadfast, his eyes filled with a quiet fire.
Beside him walked his new attendant, Song-Yee. She was a being of delicate beauty, her presence as serene as it was enigmatic. Her eyes held the wisdom of ages, yet her steps were light and graceful, as though she were simply passing through time itself. Song-Yee had been chosen, summoned from the edges of a forgotten realm, her loyalty forged in a crucible of shadows and light. She had served many masters in her time, but there was something different about Xeno Lucid—a presence that commanded respect, but also inspired a sense of awe.
Lucifer, the strongest of his siblings, walked toward his throne with measured steps, his gaze calm and unwavering. His mind was clear, his heart steady. The multiverse had bent and twisted around him for eons, but the weight of betrayal was nothing compared to the weight of purpose. He was no stranger to loss, to the sting of being cast out, to the sharp edge of exile. But unlike most who would seethe with rage or wallow in bitterness, Lucifer stood with a serene composure, a king's calm.
His brothers and sisters—beings of unimaginable power, rulers in their own right—had betrayed him. They had cast him aside, exiling him to another realm where the rules were not his to command. Yet, Lucifer did not harbor anger. It was true that the betrayal had cut deep, but he understood the game that was being played. His power, his very nature, had made him a threat to those who feared his rise, those who could not bear to see him surpass them. But they had underestimated him. They had misunderstood the essence of his being.
A king must always keep his cool, he reminded himself. Rage is for the weak. Only through clarity and purpose does one ascend.
Lucifer's heart was not clouded by vengeance or bitterness. It was filled with something far greater—ambition, peace, and an unwavering certainty that his exile was but a temporary setback. His power was unparalleled, and now, freed from the constraints of his homeland, there was no force in existence that could stop his ascent. He would not follow the rules of his realm anymore. He would make his own rules. And in time, the multiverse would see him as it always should have—at the very top.
As he stepped closer to the throne, there was no fear in his movements, no doubt. His eyes glimmered with a quiet satisfaction. No longer must I bend to the will of others, he thought, his footsteps echoing in the silent hall. No longer must I pretend to be something I am not. I am free.
And with that freedom came a new purpose. The realm he had been cast into was but a stepping stone. His exile would only make him stronger, give him the time and space to grow beyond anything his siblings could comprehend. This new world, with its strange laws and untapped potential, was his to command. He would shape it, bend it, until it too would serve him.
The throne before him, a seat of power that had once been out of reach, was now his for the taking. As he approached, he could feel the weight of it calling to him. It was not a throne built to dominate others, but one built for dominion over all things. The very essence of creation seemed to pulse within its structure, and Lucifer knew that once he claimed it, he would unlock a new plane of power.
Lucifer turned slowly toward Song-Yee, his eyes sharp and piercing, reflecting a deep understanding of the task at hand. There was no hesitation in his voice, only quiet authority as he spoke.
"What shall I do now to regain my pride?" he asked, his tone heavy with the weight of a history that had been both lost and forgotten. His power, immense as it was, could not fill the void left by betrayal. Pride was not simply a title or a crown to be worn—it was a force, an essence that had been stolen from him. Now, he sought to reclaim it, not through petty revenge, but through something far grander, something that would redefine his place in the multiverse.
Song-Yee, ever observant and loyal, stepped forward, her gaze unwavering as she met his. "First, my lord, we must have an army," she said, her voice calm, yet full of purpose. "Strong soldiers, fierce and loyal, who will follow you without question. Soldiers who will ensure that no one dares challenge your ascent."
Lucifer nodded, understanding. His mind, always calculating, began to churn with possibilities. To regain his pride, he needed more than just power. He needed an army that would not only serve him but inspire awe and fear across the realms. An army so powerful, so unstoppable, that none would dare stand against him.
With a snap of his fingers, the air around him shimmered. A ripple of energy spread through the throne room, distorting the very fabric of reality. In an instant, the power he commanded surged outward, and from the depths of the void, ten billion soldiers materialized. Each one stood tall and imposing, clad in dark, gleaming armor that reflected the light of distant stars. Their eyes burned with a cold intensity, as if they were already aware of their purpose—to serve Lucifer, without question, without hesitation.
Lucifer turned his gaze back toward Song-Yee, his expression calm, his mind already a few steps ahead. Her words echoed in the silence of the throne room, yet they seemed to carry a weight far heavier than the quiet suggestion they appeared to be.
"Second, we need a treasure, my lord," she said, her eyes gleaming with quiet certainty. The air between them seemed to thrum with the possibility of what was to come. "A treasure, not just of gold and gems, but of power—a symbol of your dominance that will make all those who oppose you realize the futility of their rebellion."
Lucifer's lips curled into a slight, knowing smile. A treasure, he thought. Not just any treasure. A force that will make them understand. A force that will bend even the mightiest of realms to my will.
He stepped forward, moving toward the vast, shimmering windows that looked out upon the infinite expanse of the multiverse. His mind began to whirl with possibilities, considering what kind of treasure could serve as both a symbol of his power and an instrument of ultimate control. It had to be something far more than material wealth—it had to be a force that could disrupt the very fabric of reality.
The light from distant stars bathed his face as he considered the endless possibilities. Then, a thought began to take shape in the dark corners of his mind, a spark of brilliance that made his eyes flash with a cold fire.
"Indeed," he murmured, his voice carrying the weight of inevitability. "A treasure, but not one forged in the mundane sense. I will take something far more precious—a source of power, ancient and untapped. Something that can reshape not just a kingdom, but entire universes."
With a deliberate motion, Lucifer raised his hand. The castle around him responded to his will—runes and sigils began to glow across the walls, the air thick with the scent of magic and untold forces. The very essence of the multiverse seemed to bend as his power reached out across the realms.
"I will claim the Heart of Infinity," he declared. "A treasure that contains the essence of time and space itself. It is said to be located in the deepest, most dangerous part of the Endless Void—guarded by beings older than even the gods, and woven into the very fabric of creation. It is not just a treasure; it is the key to ultimate dominion over all that exists."
Song-Yee raised an eyebrow, impressed by the scale of Lucifer's ambition. "The Heart of Infinity," she echoed. "A treasure of such magnitude… Do you truly believe you can claim it, my lord? The Void is a place few dare to tread, and its guardians are said to be ancient beings of untold power."
Lucifer's gaze turned to her, his eyes cold but filled with unshakable resolve. "I have faced worse," he said simply, the words carrying the weight of eons. "And nothing in this multiverse—nothing—can stand against me. I will have the Heart of Infinity. And once I possess it, no force in existence will be able to rival my power."
With that, he turned back to the throne, his thoughts already shifting to the next phase of his conquest. "We will gather what is needed," he continued, "and then we will go. The guardians of the Heart will fall like the rest. Their power will be mine."
-One Epic Adventure (A week Later)-
Now my king you should have a harem.
Lucifer's gaze shifted from the vast, endless expanse of the multiverse to the quiet, knowing presence of Song-Yee. Her suggestion hung in the air like a delicate thread, a proposal that, though unexpected, was not entirely out of place given his nature. He had built his empire on strength and dominion, yet even he understood the subtle intricacies of power—the importance of influence, alliances, and the perception of authority.
"A harem, you say?" Lucifer's voice was calm, his tone almost contemplative. His lips curled into a smile that was neither kind nor cruel, but simply knowing. He had, in his time, taken many forms of companionship—some fleeting, others lasting. But now, as the ruler of everything to come, such an arrangement would hold different meaning.
Lucifer's gaze sharpened as he took in the words spoken by Song-Yee, a truth about the way of the gods that was as old as the multiverse itself. His mind flickered through the ages of celestial beings and their strategies for domination—how they had used power, influence, and the fruits of their desires to expand their realms, to spread their bloodlines, to claim more and more of the Hyperverse.
"Indeed," Lucifer murmured, understanding the full weight of her statement. The gods, in their insatiable thirst for power and control, had long known the necessity of such an arrangement. A harem wasn't simply for indulgence or pleasure—it was a tool. A way of ensuring the future, the continuation of their power, and the expansion of their influence.
"500 beauties," he repeated, his voice low and measured. "Not just companions, but vessels to carry the blood of the gods. Each one bearing children of unimaginable power—children who will continue the conquest of the Hyperverse and secure the divine legacy. It is a necessary strategy for any god who seeks true dominion."
Lucifer's lips curled into a knowing smile. It was a concept that made sense, one that even he, as proud and self-sufficient as he was, could not ignore. He had been cast from his throne by his family of gods, but he would not repeat their mistakes. His rise would be different. His bloodline, strengthened by these powerful offspring, would secure his reign far beyond the current age, further into the untamed reaches of the Hyperverse.
Lucifer's voice was sharp and commanding, his eyes glowing with an intensity that matched the vastness of his plans. "Then I order you to begin the investigation for brides, Song-Yee. Seek out those worthy of joining my court, those whose power and loyalty will serve my bloodline and my empire. Find those who will bear my children, and ensure they are strong, capable, and beautiful—worthy of being part of my legacy."
Song-Yee bowed her head, her expression unwavering. "It will be done, my lord. I will seek those who meet your standards, and you shall have the finest of them. I will find the powerful and the loyal."
Lucifer nodded once, the faintest hint of a smile crossing his lips. He had no doubt that Song-Yee would fulfill this task with the same skill and precision she had shown in everything she had done. "Good," he replied. "Now, go. Time is of the essence."
With that, Song-Yee turned and exited the throne room, leaving Lucifer alone in his vast castle, his thoughts focused on the monumental task ahead. He had already taken steps to establish his army, secure his power, and ensure the expansion of his empire. Now, the matter of his harem—the key to solidifying his bloodline and ensuring the future of his reign—had taken precedence.
As the doors closed behind Song-Yee, Lucifer leaned back in his throne, his mind whirring with possibilities. There was much work to do, and he would not allow distractions. The search for powerful brides to join his court was a critical part of his plan—these women would not only bear his children but would also play vital roles in his future conquest of the Hyperverse.
"My time will come," Lucifer muttered to himself, his eyes cold with determination. "And when it does, none will be able to oppose me."
With that, he focused on the next phase of his plan, knowing the steps he had taken so far would soon bear fruit. But for now, the work of preparing for the future—and ensuring the rise of his bloodline—would take priority. The Hyperverse awaited, and Lucifer would not stop until it was entirely within his grasp.
