Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers - Chapter 332
“Uhm,” nodding, Liz disappeared and only reappeared next to Raykun in outer space.
“Alright, Gaia, there are many bones left by the weaker angels that have been killed around the various battlefields,” Kayla said. “I want you to collect them for me. Add them into the crater you made and I’ll take care of these ones from the strongest!”
“Alright!” Gaia answered with a smile as she spread her consciousness around her entire body and began to work.
Similarly, the smaller version of Kayla got to work as she mixed every piece of the strongest set of angel bones with her Cyber Particles.
Through her delicate manipulation, Cyber Particles did not require much time to fully fuse with the bones.
Slowly, she started moving her hand as if knitting the softest scarf out of the most precious silk. With each little one of her precise movements, the Cyber-Bone mixture started forming what seemed to be a plane human-like skeleton.
Although previously white in colour, the bones now looked extremely futuristic as they donned a curtain of dark purple.. A set of silver circuit-like runes were slowly being constructed as Kayla, yet once again, used Raven’s skill: The Elders’ Scrolls.
As she was busy here, another part of her consciousness was busy using the Cyber Particles, that once formed her body, to wrap around and contain every angel bone left in the crater that was created by Gaia.
Of course, Gaia who was collecting the rest of them from around the planet didn’t take long to gather and add them into the crater, which allowed Kayla to finish that part more thoroughly.
A short period after, Kayla’s Cyber Particles were finally fully intermixed with the bones. This made it so that her own consciousness now had the ability to fully control these bones.
Slowly, under her control, the cyber-bone mixture in the crater started penetrating the dirt layer underneath and diving deeper into the body of the planet.
Gaia, who had some idea of what was going on, could not help but tilt her head as she lost herself in the many questions that clouded her mind.
Without concern, the cyber-bone mixture continued to spread evenly throughout Earth, layer by layer, and even deeper into its core.
“Gaia, grit your teeth,” Kayla’s voice was suddenly heard. From her tone, it was rather clear that she did not say that sentence mockingly, but rather metaphorically. “It’s gonna hurt…”
Without giving Gaia a chance to react, she continued with her work.
The moment the first bit of the cyber-bone mixture penetrated the core, the planet shook, and Gaia let out a startled agonizing scream.
In a matter of seconds, the clouds above, in the skies, turned gray as if to reflect the immense pain she was feeling, rain poured down heavily in reflection of her hearty tears, and even the entirety of her titan force was completely annihilated; the wind-titans quickly and uncontrollably dispersed, the mountain-titans fell to the ground causing more earthquakes, and the ocean-titans did the same, causing tsunamis…
“Bear with it!” Kayla urged Gaia who had momentarily started wailing in agony before losing control of her clone, causing it to disperse back into World Energy that disappeared rather violently.
Distant wails continued to be carried by the aggressive winds throughout the entire planet, and the shaking never stopped, but rather got more dangerous.
Feeling her core being shredded apart was akin to having her soul invaded by sharp needles that continued to cut her into many pieces.
Needless to say, Gaia felt more pain than she’s ever done in her entire billion years of life!
The smaller version of Kayla was not concerned in that matter, but instead was focused on her cyber skeleton that was now fully donned in a curtain of mysterious silver runes. Massive amounts of strange, yet very refreshing, energy radiated out of it.
“Almost done, I need you to cooperate!” She suddenly said loudly, making sure her voice was louder than the violent wind.
And as she promised, it didn’t take her long to back away from the cyber skeleton.
Opening her hands wide in a motion that resembled hugging the entire planet, her eyes shine with a silver hue. Similarly, and too accurate to be a coincidence, the cyber skeleton imitated her movements as its hollow eyes glowed in an identical spark.
At the same time, Gaia’s screams reached new heights as the surface of the planet started collapsing.
Mountains and forests broke apart into pieces as they started floating in the air, yet strangely still close to the planet.
Glaciers melted causing the water levels in the oceans and seas to rise higher. Rivers started flowing backwards, as if the world had lost its natural order and was plunged into chaos.
Fog and dust filled the atmosphere, contaminating the air. Even the Ozone layer was not spared.
Suddenly, however, a thin translucent barrier started forming around Earth, as if trying to keep it in one piece and prevent it from spreading throughout space like dead space wreckage.
Quickly, the barrier fully wrapped around Gaia’s massive body and contained everything inside.
Surprisingly, the barrier didn’t stop there. In an instant, it started getting closer to the surface, as if attempting to thicken itself by force.
This became very apparent the moment it collided with the atmospheric layers and clouds, and then hit the floating pieces of land and water that were away from their destination.
Slowly, and very agonizingly for Gaia who felt as though she had lived countless years more than her actual age, the barrier’s thickness kept on increasing as it continued losing its size.
At one point, it came into direct contact with the Earth’s surface and resembled its size. At another, it continued to shrink down while pushing Earth towards its core. As this went on, the entire planet seemed to get smaller and smaller.
And at the same time, Gaia’s core itself was being mixed with the cyber-bone mixture, which was actually the reason for her pain. The matter of the surface was simply like a scratch that she could not reach, nothing but annoying.
As time went by, Earth continued to shrink until one point it had reached the size of its moon. Of course, this would not have been possible if not for Kayla’s Space Manipulation, which mainly stems from the Storage ability of her bracelets.
With that being said, if it wasn’t for Calcer’s timely intervention, the actual moon would have already left its orbit and disappeared into the distance.
…
‘Almost there!’ After many hours have passed, Kayla suddenly said calmly. Right now, her clone has been mixed with the Cyber Particles inside the planet so she could only speak this way.
‘You’ve been saying that since the beginning of all of this!’ Gaia replied, anger and pain visible in her voice.
‘No, this time’s for real!’ saying that, she redirected her attention towards Earth that was now merely the size of a soccer ball.
In its current size, it lacked its own colour and instead it adopted the colour of the silver rune-filled barrier.
With a twist in space, the cyber skeleton was revealed, as lifeless as ever. Suddenly, a tiny drop of dark purple left its skeletal body and turned into a little girl.
Opening her arms in a familiar hugging motion, the cyber skeleton instantly started mimicking her.
With its two hands, the cyber skeleton held the ball-sized Earth and allowed itself to be moved closer to it.
With its current mass to size ratio, the ball-sized Earth was akin to a miniature black hall. Only once the mass distribution is fully controlled using Space Manipulation would everything get to a normal equilibrium.
As it got closer, the cyber skeleton swiftly pressed down on Earth and allowed its size to shrink even further. Of course, what was helping wasn’t the outer motion of the skeleton, but rather the increase in Space Manipulation on the inside.
Suddenly however, as Earth reached the size of a marble, it entered the cyber skeleton’s rib cage and rested in its empty chest, where the heart of a human would be.
With an internal command from Kayla, the seemingly tiny silver marble released a deviating aura as cyber-bone mixture spread throughout the skeleton and covered its every part.
With it being filled with matter, the undefined dark purple silhouette started slowly taking the shape of a human girl.
Just before gaining the final ‘definitive’ features of a girl, a purple screen covered the silhouette. Moments later, the screen was turned into beautiful fluorescent particles that were quickly reabsorbed.
Now, after everything has finished, a beautiful girl made an elegant appearance.
Her curly short dark purple locks extended to the back of her slender neck. Her snow-white face was decorated with plushy pale cheeks. And her eyes were a bright naturalistic green that inspired tenderness that was beyond human reach.
Her figure wasn’t petite, but rather tall. And, combined with her slim waist and plumpy chest, she resembled a graceful princess of a rich wonderland!
This girl was the new Gaia!
