Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Asura snapped his finger and said, "Go and destroy the town named Hel. I was going to raze it to the core anyway, but now that we need a few more sacrifices, go and destroy it. I am sure there would be a few dozen innocents living there."

"Were you not going to create your new domain there, my God? Don't you need more people to serve you there?" Knodong asked.

"I don't need humans. The only reason I am in the human world is that this world is the only place from which I can access all the worlds. But that doesn't mean this world needs a civilization.... hah!"

Asura scoffed out loud as though he remembered something funny.

"For the first time in your life, you are actually right, Knodong. I will change my order." A brief pause later, he uttered, "You no longer have to destroy the town... go destroy the entire world."

"I... am not sure I possess that much power, my God..." Knodongcalmly said while stuttering.

"Of course you don't." Asura beckoned Knodong and said, "Come here. I will give you a little bit of my power."

Knodong gulped down in fear and slowly walked forward with his trembling body. His steps were uneven and unsteady, as though he was forcing his body to move forward.

"How long does it take you to walk across the room, you pathetic shit?!" Asura yelled furiously.

Knodong rushed to Asura's throne but stopped half a meter away from him. His eyes widened in shock when he realized that the wall he thought was a concrete wall was a glass wall.

On the other side of the glass wall was a massive underground city made of a capsule containing the artificial clones' bodies. There were not thousands of them, but they were spread as far as Knodong's sight could reach.

In the center of all that was a colossal-sized heart-shaped core beating and pulsating, working as a power source for the capsules.

"Is that..."

"Indeed. That is the heart of Helm Lubel Ark. She is the Mother Queen of all artificial humans. If that heart is destroyed, she will die and never revive ever again, and so will her minions who exist because of her," Asura asserted.

"Then... shouldn't you destroy it immediately?" Knodong asked politely. "If you do that, you no longer have to sit in this chamber."

"I cannot do that." Asura sharpened his gaze while staring at the heart and uttered, "I need the Mother Queen in my quest to conquer this universe."

"Why is that?"

"Silence!"

Knodong dropped to his knees because of the immense intimidation force aura emitted by the Asura.

"Know your place, Knodong. There is only one reason why you are still alive, and that is to use your power to connect with your brothers. I will need that power once I have destroyed the universe.

With the help of the Mother Queen's technique to create clones and your power to connect, I will create my infinite clones and connect to them at once. Then, I will recreate the universe and become the living God of all the worlds.

I will get even more powerful, and then we shall wait. Wait... for the fourth reality to come into existence. And then we shall rule it too. It will be a never-ending cycle of countless destruction and recreation.

But my one and only true goal is to find the first reality. Why does no one know about it? I, the king of the blue moon, consist of all the knowledge of the second reality ever since it came into existence.

And with my loyal blue moon child subjects of this third reality, I will also gain knowledge of this universe. There is nothing I can't do, not a thing. Then why can't I find the first reality?"

"...."

"Answer me, Knodong. What am I doing wrong?"

"Maybe... the first reality never existed?"

SIGH!

"I shouldn't have asked a worthless worm like you," Asura sighed in annoyance.

"Or perhaps... the first reality was completely destroyed from existence?"

"...that can be true, but not possible. Even if it was completely destroyed, why are there no traces left? I hate to say this, but... perhaps they possess the ultimate power that no one in other reality does?"

"What could be more powerful than you, my God?"

"The power to control... time."

"But you possess the power to control space! No one can ever defeat you!"

"Space and time are similar to each other yet completely opposite. Space is never ending, and so is time, but what separates them from each other is the very correlation between them. They need to move forward together.

And then... there is a place where space and time don't exist. The place where nothing exists.

Void.

The absolute power in the first reality could be time, and the absolute power in the second reality is space. Now... I wonder what the absolute power of this third reality is... no... I already know the answer.

It has to be... void. And the one to possess that absolute power must be the... Lord. But sadly, I know a way to remove the void from existence... and that is... Chaos. If something happens in the void, it will no longer be the void.

Thus... the protector of this third reality is completely powerless in front of me. Truly, what a pathetic existence the Lord is. Maybe that's the reason the Lord hasn't shown his presence yet.

He must have realized how strong I am. Hah! He must fear my existence. Perhaps he is hiding somewhere, hoping that I wouldn't find him. But once the sacrifices have been made... I will find him and remove him from existence.

Then... I will devour his power of void! If I have the power of space and void by myself, I can find the first reality! I am sure of it! "

"Indeed. You are the greatest and mightiest to all there is. No one can dare to defy your presence," Knodong stated with his utmost sincerity.

"Come forward, Knodong. I shall share my power with you so you can destroy this world, so there can be... peace."
