Kol Mikaelson – Journey To The Multiverse - Chapter 12

=PART-1

After signing her name on the contract, Qetsiyah started to chant her magic.

A few seconds later, she touched Kol’s temples with her thumbs in a cautious manner and then disappeared.

As she was a spirit, she did not leave her body behind as she just entered Kol’s body. However, after merely a couple of seconds, she ran out screaming, as if she had just experienced a very painful situation.

In order to takeover Kol’s body, Qetsiyah had to first enter it, and then push Kol’s soul aside with her soul strength, in order to take control of his body.

Her technique was perfect, but she did not know about Kol’s omega effect.

————Scene -Saying Goodbye.

“Ahh! Ahh!”, Qetsiyah flew out of Kol’s body while screaming.

Only after half a minute could she gather her spirits, and uttered weakly, “You! How dare you! I thought we had a deal that you would let me take over your body.”.

“Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!”, Kol had been laughing as she was screaming in pain. When she spoke, he held back his laughter and replied with a schadenfreude face, “Deal? Of course not! The contract clearly stated that I would let you enter my body and it would be up to your efforts to actually, possess me.”.

On the side, Esther was stunned as well. She did not know how Kol managed to throw out the spirit of a thousand-year-old witch, out of his body. According to common sense, the older the spirit, the stronger it would be.

Qetsiyah finally managed to calm down after taking a few deep breaths. She asked with a confused expression, “How did you do that.? Are you actually the soul of an ancient warlock possessing this body.?”.

Qetsiyah replied with a stunned expression, “Are you telling me that your body contains the universe’s most fundamental energy? And it still exists without blowing up into pieces? How?”.

On the side, Esther was stunned as well. Even she did not know that Kol’s body could contain cosmic energy, the most powerful and dangerous energy in existence.

Esther asked in a surprised tone, “Kol, did you really accomplish that by altering the immortality spell? Not only does your body store cosmic energy, but your soul can even manipulate it freely? Even the most powerful witches can not do that. Perhaps, only God can.! Kol, tell me the truth.”, she spoke those last few words in her usual commanding tone.

On the side, when Qetsiyah heard this, she asked with a hint of greed in her eyes, “What? You did it with the immortality spell? Tell me, how the hell did you alter it?”.

Could she be any more obvious?! Kol rolled his eyes as he replied, “Not by altering it but creating a whole new spell after getting inspiration from it. Your spell can turn mortals into immortals by using the forces of nature, but my spell formation can turn mortals into gods by using a large amount of cosmic energy. As for the specifics, well that’s a mystery for another time, isn’t it? Now, I have to go.”.

Kol gave them an explanation that any witch from any world would consider, theoretically possible, but near impossible to achieve in practice.

Qetsiyah and Esther tried to ask further, and stop him from leaving, but all they got in return was a short, “See Ya!”, as Kol opened the Boomtube projection and returned to the real world.

Qetsiyah and Esther could only look at each other. Turning mortals into gods?! The task of creating a magic formation that ran of cosmic energy instead of natural energy was extremely difficult in itself, but how was one suppose to know what ‘god’, was? This concept had always been very vague.

That told it was still a fact that Kol had created something incredible. Nature did not try to find a balance with him, which meant that Kol had surpassed nature itself. Perhaps only God could do that.

When Kol had transformed himself using the blood essence of Darkseid, it was not only his body that had transformed, but his very soul had evolved into a god soul and became able to manipulate cosmic energy.

If it was just about changing his DNA, then Kol would not have spent all those years recreating the bloodline transfer formation. In fact, the original formation that was taken from the Darkhold could accomplish that task, but that way, in the end, his soul would still be torn apart by the enormous amount of cosmic energy.

=PART-2

It had been nearly a week since Kol went to meet Qetsiyah on The Other Side.

Currently, he was sitting in the garden, looking at a cute, white ‘Khao Manee’ cat that had mysterious red eyes. Kol knew that these eyes did not possess any ability, but still, they seemed almost magical. He felt like he was drawn into them.

————Scene -Naming The Flerken.

Currently, Kol was sitting in the garden, observing the Flerken that was sitting in front of him and tried to communicate with it.

It constantly uttered, “Meow! Meow!”, in cute cat voice and occasionally nodding it’s cute, little head as if to express an opinion on a nonexistent subject.

Kol knew that the Flerken was an intelligent species. They were just as intelligent as an a.d.u.l.t human being, so he was trying to understand what the Flerken was trying to express. Of course, he could just use his mental abilities, but he chose not to.

Flerken were actually, considered a very dangerous alien species in the marvel world. They looked like the domesticated cats from Earth. They possessed tentacles that came out of their mouths and could swallow up large objects to store them in the pocket dimension inside their bellies.

Normally, a Flerken would be able to lay hundreds of eggs at a time to produce offspring, but the white little cat in front to Kol was the only Flerken in this whole world, and it did not have another to mate with. Of course, Flerken could also make use of the energy they had devoured to lay eggs, but this was Kol’s loyal Flerken and without Kol’s permission, it would not lay eggs.

After observing the Flerken in front of him for nearly an hour, Kol spoke, “Alright, I have decided. You shall be called, ‘Nora!’, nod your head if you like this name.”.

Kol had already asked her many questions this way. Like whether could she mate with normal cats or what was her gender. It was a previously tested method and he could use it for communication for the short term until he learned to understand whatever she was trying to express.

“Meow! Meow!’, Nora nodded her head twice and looked happy. Then, she jumped on Kol’s shoulder and stayed there.

Kol patted her head as he spoke, “You can stay there it you like that place. Now, let’s go. I have to introduce you to Astrid. Then, I shall take you to visit the dimension of The Other Side.”.

————Scene END———–

When other people say Kol carrying a cat on his shoulders, they were a little surprised, but Kol ignored most and even enthusiastically introduced Nora to some of the people he usually met, like his chef.

It was ironic how some vampires and werewolves considered themselves the strongest species on the planet, yet treated this dangerous Flerken like a cute little pet cat. They were granted a little bit of strength and thought that they had the right to act arrogantly towards the normal human beings, and yet, a being who could devour even the strongest of them, irrespective their resistance, acted in such humility that anyone would really consider her a cute little cat.

=PART-3

A few days after Kol had summoned Nora.

He was standing in the garden on a nice, quiet afternoon. Nora was sitting on his shoulder as he opened a Boomtube projection.

————Scene -Second Meeting With Qetsiyah.

Kol and Nora went to the Other Side. This was the second time for Kol, but Nora was constantly turning her little head around, curiously observing everything. She had a pocket dimension inside her stomach, so most likely, she had sensed something different about the space here.

Kol closed his eyes and tried to summon Qetsiyah. After more than a minute, he heard a voice coming from behind.

“You actually came back!? And what is this? Did you bring a pet with you? Do you not understand the concept of the afterlife? Souls of the supernatural beings come here after they die.”, Qetsiyah’s voice came from behind.

As she paused, Kol had turned around and faced her. She then continued with an annoyed and dissatisfied expression, “Living beings are not supposed to be here, let along treating this place as their back garden. Not to mention, there are many souls here with unfinished business in the real world, and they would not mind possessing the body of a cat if it means to leave this place and go to the real world.”, Qetsiyah’s voice came from behind.

That annoyance on her face was proof that she must have tried to resist his summoning.

Kol replied with a smile on his face, “Well, somebody is in a bad mood today! Shouldn’t you be thanking me instead? Although you have created the Other Side, let’s face it.! Even if you, as the creator of this dimension can somewhat interact with other souls, but the very concept on which this dimension is based on is to act as the hell, where the dead souls are to spend their eternity in solitude.”, as he spoke, Kol came in front of her and sat down in a touching distance.

Qetsiyah retreated a few paces and sat down, facing him.

Kol shifted his body closer to her, as he continued, “Her name is Nora, do you want to hold her?”, as he spoke, he picked Nora up from his shoulder and stretched his hands towards Qetsiyah, as if to give her the cat.

When he saw, that Qetsiyah was about to react, he pulled Nora back as he spoke, “Just to be clear, Are you one of those perverted souls, who would prefer to possess a cat’s body? Not that I would mind if its you, but if this is what you truly want, then I can bring you some other cat to possess instead. You see, Nora is quite special.”, as he spoke, the expression on his face became more and more worried.

On the other hand, as Kol spoke the expression on Qetsiyah’s face became more and more annoyed. In the end, she raised her voice and replied in a cold voice, “Shut up! Who do you take me as? I would never possess an animal’s body. Let alone a cat.”.

At this point, it became apparent that Kol had started to get under Qetsiyah’s skin. He replied with a somewhat mocking expression, “Yeah! Like it wasn’t you, who tried to possess my body a few days ago. Since you don’t mind possessing the body of someone with the opposite gender, how am I suppose to know that the idea of possessing Nora’s body would bother you so much? Not to mention, Nora is the second strongest being on the planet. She is not just a cat.”.

Qetsiyah was so surprised by what Kol implied at the end of that sentence that she completely ignored his mocking tone in the beginning.

Qetsiyah then looked at Nora with more attention and finally noticed something. So she asked in a curious and surprised manner, “The space around this cat is somewhat different, but that’s not all. There is something else inside its belly. What did you do? What kind of experiment did you conduct on this cat?.

Qetsiyah, as the witch who had created the dimension of The Other Side in her prime, noticed something different about Nora, even if she was now nothing more than just a dead soul.

Hearing this, Qetsiyah snorted as she replied, “Do you really think that it would be this easy? Do you not understand? I have trust issues. I will not give you any information that can harm me, either directly or indirectly.”.

Kol did not mind her attitude, but he changed the topic of conversation to something more casual. He knew that spending more than a thousand years in this place had made her paranoid. It would take a long time for her to open up to him.

That told, Kol was here to spend his free time, and Qetsiyah could use some company as well, not to mention, casual conversations were not as fruitless when they discussed magic, sometimes.
