A Rift in Reality
The moment Leon's sword pierced the Abyssal Nexus, a deafening explosion of light and shadow erupted. The entire cavern fractured, reality itself warping as celestial fire clashed against abyssal corruption.
Xelthar's form disintegrated, his scream lost in the void as the Nexus shattered from within. The Abyssal Behemoth let out a monstrous roar as its massive body began to unravel, its tendrils burning away in the radiant energy.
Leon was thrown back by the sheer force of the impact. His system flickered with warnings.
[System Alert: Dimensional Instability at Critical Levels]
[Reality Anchor Breaking]
[Administrator Core—Overload Imminent]
His vision blurred. His body felt weightless, like he was being pulled apart piece by piece. He had succeeded in destroying the Nexus, but the power released was too much.
The Abyss wasn't just collapsing.
It was taking him with it.
A Choice Beyond Mortality
Leon struggled to move, his consciousness slipping. In the chaos, a voice called out—a presence unlike any he had felt before.
"Administrator... do you truly wish to fall here?"
He turned, barely able to focus. Before him stood a figure of pure energy, neither light nor dark. Its form constantly shifted, as if existing beyond time itself.
His system barely managed to process its presence.
[Entity Identified: ???]
[Administrator Authority Recognized]
[Do You Wish to Ascend?]
Leon's mind raced.
Ascend?
Was this… a way out? Or was he stepping into something far more dangerous?
He had no time to hesitate. The Abyss was crumbling. His body was breaking apart.
With his last ounce of strength, he reached out.
[Choice Confirmed: Ascension Protocol Activated]
Everything went white.
Rebirth into the Unknown
When Leon next opened his eyes, he was no longer in the Abyss.
He stood in an endless void, filled with swirling lights—a cosmic realm beyond human comprehension. Power surged through his very being, a force far greater than he had ever felt.
His system flickered back to life, but it was different.
[Administrator System—Evolved]
[New Authority: Cosmic Sovereign]
Leon exhaled slowly, his body no longer weak or injured. He could feel it—the laws of reality bending to his will.
But as he adjusted to his new power, a ripple spread through the void.
And then, from the depths of infinity, a new presence emerged.
A presence that had been waiting for him.
The Cosmic Throne
A Realm Beyond Understanding
Leon floated in the void, his body no longer bound by mortal constraints. The swirling lights around him pulsed with an unfathomable energy—a plane beyond time, beyond existence. He could feel something new coursing through him, deeper than the Administrator Authority he once wielded.
He raised his hand, and reality bent at his will. Stars blinked into existence, nebulae swirled at his command.
This was no longer just power.
This was dominion over existence itself.
[System Notification: Cosmic Sovereign Status Achieved]
[New Title Acquired: Monarch of the Infinite]
[New Authority Unlocked: Omniversal Manipulation]
Leon barely had time to process the information before the void shifted.
A throne materialized before him—massive, woven from the very fabric of reality itself. Planets and galaxies orbited around its base, as if awaiting his command.
Then, a voice echoed through the expanse.
"Welcome, Sovereign. You are the first in eons to reach this place."
Leon turned. From the darkness, a being of unfathomable presence stepped forward. Its form constantly shifted—one moment a celestial giant, the next a swirling mass of stardust.
His system struggled to identify it.
[Entity Identified: The First Sovereign]
[Status: Unknown]
[Threat Level: ???]
The being's gaze locked onto Leon, its presence pressing against his very soul.
"You have torn through the Abyss, defied fate, and ascended beyond the cycle of death. But power alone does not make a ruler." It gestured toward the cosmic throne. "Sit, and claim your rightful place—or fall into oblivion."
Leon narrowed his eyes. This was more than a test.
This was a challenge.
The Trial of Sovereignty
Leon took a step forward, the ground forming beneath his feet as he approached the throne. But the moment he reached for it—reality itself rebelled.
A blinding force struck him, sending him hurtling back. The very laws of existence collapsed and rebuilt in an instant, warping around him.
The First Sovereign's voice echoed:
"You seek to rule reality? Then prove you can survive it."
Suddenly, beings of unimaginable power emerged from the void.
Celestial warlords. Abyssal titans. Primordial gods.
Each one wielded the power to shatter galaxies with a mere thought.
And they were all coming for him.
Leon exhaled, gripping his sword. His power had grown, but this…
This was a war against the very foundation of existence.
Yet, he smirked.
"Then let's see if reality can handle me."
And with that, he charged.
War of the Sovereigns
The Battle Begins
Leon's body blurred as he surged forward, reality itself bending beneath his Cosmic Sovereign Authority. His sword, no longer bound by mortal limitations, burned with the essence of creation itself.
The first foe—a Celestial Warlord draped in burning constellations—raised a massive warhammer. With a single swing, the impact shattered entire star systems, sending shockwaves across the void.
Leon dodged in an instant, reappearing behind him with a flicker of golden light. His sword sliced through space itself, carving a rift of destruction through the warlord's form. The being howled as his body crumbled into cosmic dust.
But there was no time to celebrate.
From the abyss, an Abyssal Titan as large as a galaxy emerged, its multiple glowing eyes locking onto Leon.
[Warning: Entity Possesses Absolute Consumption Authority]
The Titan reached forward, and the fabric of existence collapsed into a swirling black hole. Entire dimensions were devoured in an instant.
Leon gritted his teeth.
"So that's how you want to play?"
He thrust his hand forward, unleashing the full force of his new Authority.
[Administrator Override: Conceptual Erasure]
The Titan's body froze. Reality itself rejected its existence.
With a scream, the abyssal being was unmade, vanishing into nothingness.
But Leon barely had a moment to breathe.
A new presence descended upon him—one that sent shivers through his very soul.
The Primordial Gods Join the Battle
From beyond the stars, a being of infinite light and another of absolute darkness stepped forward.
His system screamed with alerts.
[Entities Identified: Primordial God of Order & Primordial God of Chaos]
[Threat Level: UNDEFINED]
The God of Order spoke first, his voice absolute.
"You do not belong here, False Sovereign."
The God of Chaos laughed, his form shifting unpredictably.
"I say we break him and see what remains."
Leon's grip tightened. He had fought celestial beings, abyssal horrors, and even broken through the very limits of reality.
But this was a battle against the very forces that governed existence itself.
And he had no intention of losing.
The Sovereign's Will
Leon's aura exploded outward, his golden energy clashing against the infinite forces of Order and Chaos.
The War of the Sovereigns had truly begun.
To be continued…
