Kol Mikaelson – Journey To The Multiverse - Chapter 13

=PART-1

Around eighty years had passed since Kol had started visiting the Other Side and a lot had happened during this time.

Starting with The Other Side, the relationship between Kol and Qetsiyah had progressed a lot. Initially, Kol only started interacting with her for his gains, but as time passed, they started appreciating each other’s company.

A thousand years ago, Qetsiyah was betrayed by the most important person in her life, on the most important day of her life. Her happiest moment turned into her worst nightmare in mere seconds when she discovered that her soon to be husband was cheating on her with none other than her close friend and handmaiden, Amara. That kind of shock nearly broke her psyche and she became obsessed with vengeance.

In that state, she made some decisions that no other sane person would ever have made and even created a whole new dimension of torment in the afterlife, where the dead souls would suffer the worst kind of suffering for any human being, the solitude.

Sanity and craziness had always been relative terms. Everyone has at least some craziness inside them. Nobody is perfect, and even if someone is, then they would still be considered crazy because that would be against common sense. If every single person since the beginning of time was perfectly sane, then human society would still be in the stone age.

Qetsiyah did not become one of the most powerful witches to ever exist, by always acting according to common sense alone. So, when she created the immortality spell, she inevitably made many enemies among the conservative witches. In the end, she was stabbed in the back by her coven. Another betrayal for the already unstable Qetsiyah.

After being brutally murdered by those who she considered her kin, she was trapped for a thousand years inside her self created purgatory. In solitude.

As the saying goes, time corrects everything.

Having nothing to do for a millennium but thinking about her past, Qetsiyah had regained some sanity when Kol met her, but she was still quite controlling, paranoid, a little crazy, and had major trust issues. So, Kol did not hide much of his intentions from her and acted candidly and openly.

Kol outright told her why he had been coming to visit her. He was not worried since Qetsiyah had already signed the contract with him. She had no choice but to appear whenever he called her.

In the beginning, she tried to fight him, but she was nothing more than a soul, so she could not win. Then, she tried the silent treatment, but with nothing else to do, Kol treated her like his dear diary. He just talked to her about his daily life and other irrelevant things. Completely one-sided.

As time passed by, sometimes Qetsiyah had to respond, even if just to shut him up. In a couple of years, they even got used to each other, and because now she had somebody to talk to, her mental state improved a lot. At this point, she was not much different from any other normal girl.

————Scene -Kol And Qetsiyah.

This scene was from the time when twenty-three years had passed since Kol had started coming to the Other Side.

Most of the time, he just visited Qetsiyah, but Esther sometimes joined them.

As time passed, Kol started to bring objects from the real world into the Other Side, to create a small house and a nice living environment for Qetsiyah. He invited Esther as well, but she tactfully refused. The house existed inside a barrier where no other souls except Qetsiyah and Esther could enter.

On one certain evening, Kol brought one of his newly create magic phonograph to the Other Side. It had been becoming difficult for Kol to live in this age as there was no form of entertainment. He was a person from the twenty-first century, so in the end, he created a few future instruments for his use. Like the phonograph that would be invented in the ninetieth century. Since only Kol and his few of his close people could use them, it would not affect the overall development of the world.

That evening, Qetsiyah cooked for Kol to thank him, and so they had a nice dinner. Normally, Kol was the one to cook, so this change of rhythm gave them a few more topics to discuss and the early evening turned into the late night.

After the dinner usually came the wine, but this time, Kol turned on the magic phonograph and proposed to dance with Qetsiyah. She first refused, but when he used the power of the contract to summon her on the open space in front of the phonograph, she could no longer refuse the rhythm of the melodious music.

As they both were a little tired from the alacritous music, they subconsciously moved closer when the music slowed down.

At this point, Kol was holding her waist. Both of them were moving according to the rhythm of the music.

More than a minute passed as they almost forgot themselves.

Suddenly, Qetsiyah was startled as her eyes widened, and so she pushed Kol away. She then retreated in panic.

Since she was drunk, Qetsiyah missed a step and nearly lost her balance. Kol reacted quickly as he moved forward and caught her before she could fall.

He looked in her eyes as he spoke, “You never have to be afraid because I will always be there to support you whenever you miss a step.”.

His faint voice gradually faded away in the melodious background music, but those words completely melted her already fluctuating heart, and so they kissed one last time before Qetsiyah pushed him away once again.

In the end, Kol said goodbye and left. Qetsiyah was now drunk and she needed more to think things through.

————Scene END———–

After that evening, their relationship became more and more intimate, and in the end, after many ups and downs, setbacks and opportunities, and hesitations and advances, they became romantically involved.

Only a few years later, years of romance became love, and now Kol and Qetsiyah were madly in love with each other.

In the end, Kol even took an opportunity to introduce Astrid and Qetsiyah.

Their first meeting was awkward and there was dissatisfaction in the air. After that, Kol made it a point to bring Astrid to the Other Side, at least once in a week.

After many awkward meetings, they bickered and even sometimes fought with each other, but Kol was always there to calm the mood. For him, it was like jumping in the middle of the encounter between the two tigresses who wanted each other’s territory.

Astrid had always been together with Kol since the very beginning of their journey, and Qetsiyah always had trust issues. This situation was unacceptable for either of them, but Kol had forced them together and they could do nothing but argue, hoping that the other party would give up.

Qetsiyah always had a strong character and years of experience had helped Astrid toughen up her original personality, not to mention they both truly loved Kol. So in the end, neither of them gave up.

Even if they did, Kol would not just sit by and watch. He never knew to restrain, even in his past life, when he was nothing more than a normal human being.

Kol already considered both of them as his wives. He was not an emotional person, so that was the only way he knew how to make them accept each other. He never gave up and neither did he let either of them give up.

The most important thing in any relationship had always been, trust, and love could make any unfavorable, awkward situation, acceptable. Astrid, Qetsiyah, and Kol all had love in common, as for the trust, the passing time would help increase their familiarity with each other, enough for them to start trusting each other.

And so, as the passing years turned into decades, and when the multiple of ten on the first digit became almost unnoticeable in front of the growing number on the tenth digit, both Qetsiyah and Astrid were glad that they had someone else other than Kol in their life.

=PART-2

Kol’s relationship was not the only thing to progress during this time. Qetsiyah had created an elixir for Kol, according to his requirements.

From the outside, this new elixir was not as amazing as the elixir created from the immortality spell, but for her, it was much harder to create. This new elixir was much more complex and took a lot of time for her to create.

Qetsiyah’s previous elixir, that was created from the immortality spell could turn any human who took it, into a new supernatural species called the true immortals.

True immortals could not only live forever, but they also had – Infinite life span, Advanced Healing Factor, Advanced Immunity, and Powerful and ever-growing Psychic Powers. They could not be harmed by either magic, or any physical means, or even any poison and disease.

Unlike any other supernatural species, true immortals were truly and unconditionally immortal and could not be killed by any means, but at the same time, since they were a different species altogether, true immortals could not use magic and nature found balance for their existence by creating doppelgangers, who could die in their place.

Qetsiyah’s new elixir did not turn one species to another, and it could potentially be used by any living species in existence. It had the following effects.

1. Anyone who took the elixir would be rejuvenated and their body would return to the best age of physical fitness. They would also acquire the best physical fitness of that age, like Captain America’s super-soldier serum.

2. If it was to be taken by a child, whose body had not yet reached the best age of physical fitness, then the elixir would lay dormant in their system until they grow up, and until then, it would constantly make changes in their body to adjust the best physical fitness of any age they reach.

4. Whoever took the elixir was not impervious to any harm and only had minor regeneration ability, so it was balanced in itself.

5. Since the person who took the elixir could be killed by external harm, nature did not try to find the balance with them by creating doppelgangers.

6. The elixir was balanced in itself and did not affect the nature, and in return, nature did not affect the one who took it either. That meant that the elixir was not affected by the world laws. It would work even if the person who took the elixir was to travel to a different multiverse altogether.

7. Anyone who took the elixir would never age again. They would have an infinite lifespan.
