Hero of Darkness

Chapter 1047  Multiple Realities

Miyamoto Musashi, the 6th Hero of Space laid down his conclusion in front of Kahn, about how Earth was a variant of Vantrea.

Even Kahn nodded in agreement given how a lot of things are exactly the same in both worlds.

"In the Erdve Empire, the population is mostly made of the Yokai." spoke Miyamoto Musashi, their samurai instructor.

Yokai were Japanese folklore monsters similar to how Werewolves, Elves, Dwarves, and Dryads existed on Earth in different cultures.

"When I was first summoned and saw that there were Onis, Kitsune, Asuras, Tengus, Inugami, Kappa, Kyubi, and many other species that we had in my country's culture as mere demons, ghosts, and monsters in our folklore." he iterated calmly.

"It felt as if I was sent to hell at first.

But after a while, I came to know that it's not that these creatures existed on Earth and somehow materialized in Vantrea.

The truth is that we are from one of the worlds where they exist solely in stories and mythologies of different cultures." he stated firmly.

"Although no other Hero or Heroine was summoned from Earth during my time as the Hero of Space, I found traces of some who were summoned centuries ago in different empires." he revealed.

Kahn nodded in affirmation as he was already aware of Bjorn Ragnarsson and Marcus Brutus.

"I had my doubts too but in the time I lived in, many literature, stories, novels, and books had taken inspiration from them.

There's a whole section of entertainment media that is filled with stories, novels, movies, and even games where these creatures from mythologies and novels are normalized.

So when I was summoned and saw these familiar names like the Godbeasts such as Fenrir, Roc, Basilisk, Baihu, and Behemoth and even things such as Dragons and Primordial Titans… I was under the assumption that all these beings exist in this world are similar to those things I used to read and watch.

But now I'm certain." spoke Kahn with a thoughtful expression.

"They exist on earth as mere mythologies and folklore because those creatures and species exist on Vantrea in the first place.

And if I'm not wrong, there are also the Deities like Indra, Kagutsuchi, and many more that we have on earth as Gods in different cultures.

But to what extent… I don't know." he concluded.

Miyamoto Musashi too seemed to share this sentiment as he said…

"That's not it all. I'm afraid it's more complicated."

"What do you mean?" asked Kahn curiously.

"That there's not only our Earth… But there are multiple Earths. It's like things that exist here and on our earth are as real as the ones where we are not alive but exist in another form.

And that although our earth didn't have these things such as monsters or even saints… there are Earths where some of them do." he shared his own findings.

Kahn, again nodded in agreement.

"You're perhaps talking about the Multiverse.

The multiverse theory suggests that our universe is not the only one and that many universes exist parallel to each other. These distinct universes have their own versions of lives, civilizations, and realities. Simply put, there are realities where many of us exist and many where many don't. It applies to all living beings so by that logic, there are countless realities.

Means many things such as Gods in various cultures, religions and even the realms they live in are also real in certain versions of earth." he iterated with a stern countenance.

"There is something I learned when I reached the 3rd enlightenment on my own.

Using the previous logic, there could be a reality where we are nothing but nonexistent people or one of us is real while the other is fictional too." revealed the sword saint as he sheathed his katana.

"Yes, but not only that.

There could be a reality that we are just part of some story and someone is reading about us just to pass the time because they're bored." said Kahn.

Both of them directed their gaze towards a specific point, their eyes settling on someone who seemed to exist far beyond the constraints of time, dimension and reality itself.

But then they resumed their training again…

[[Author: *starts sweating* Phew! We nearly got caught, guys.]]

----------------

Just like that, another month passed.

Based on their respective fighting styles, both Kahn and Omega had learned and mastered many Saint Rank samurai swordsmanship skills.

Omega, in particular, used the Tablet of Arcana and spent time in one of the realms where he could perfect his gravity law when he wasn't training his sword skill.

In this particular realm called Shattered World, existed a planet that was literally shattered, and big pieces of it were spread across its hemisphere. While the planet itself was as big as Jupiter with different kinds of gravity and laws of physics.

Some sections, similar to ginormous meteors suspended the space, had incredible suction force while some displayed signs of immeasurable pressure due to their twisted gravitational force varying from region to region.

Because of a place like this, Omega's inherent knowledge and the information he received from Skoll and Hati could be practiced and applied perfectly.

Similar to how the Conjunction of Space realm helped Kahn make a breakthrough in the Space Law… the Shattered World provided him with the best supportive environment in the world to study the Gravity Law.

And as a result… Omega achieved the 3rd enlightenment in the Gravity Law.

Despite his great breakthrough… Omega did not celebrate it but rather followed in Kahn's footsteps.

Following Kahn's example… he started infusing the Gravity Law into his attack skills just like how Kahn did it with Space Law by infusing the Space Force and Cosmic Aether into his attack skills and weapons.

Omega was an elemental swordsman who could already master Lightning and Wind elements using Raijin while infusing Fire elements while using Kojin.

But now, even the skills he previously developed such as Kaminari Surasshu and Katon Surasshu, where he created massive 120-meter-long katanas made of Lightning and Dragonfire respectively, also started affecting the gravity around everywhere the attack passed.

Meanwhile, his other powerful skills like Lunar Fang Strike which was his fastest attack skill, and the Black Fang Strike which was his strongest attack skill in terms of raw strength, were also elevated to Legendary Rank after his 3rd enlightenment.

And when he used the Moonlight Armor and the Twilight Armor mode, both of these skills were elevated to a whole new level by at least 7 times.

And although Omega was only a Beginner 5th-stage saint, he too became strong enough…

To kill a peak 6th-stage saint.

In a way, Kahn's deal with the greatest Samurai had become a massive help in bolstering their strengths more than what he expected.

Like this… another 2 more months passed and there was only half a year left before the Great War.

And finally, the day came when inside the Conjunction of Space…

BOOM!!

A tremendous dark blue aura erupted and spread into a 100-kilometer radius.

[Congratulations to the host!] notified the system before Kahn's figure even came out of the blue fog made of cosmic aether. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

[For achieving the 4th-Enlightenment in the Space Law!]
