The Sun - Lord of Mysteries (fanfiction)

As he stared at the strange scene, Aucuses took a moment to calm down his raging emotions.

Before him was a vast shimmering light curtain that stretched as far as the steeps of the mountains, seemingly without end.

The entire light curtain was expanding at an incredible rate, and the curtain occasionally gave off an ethereal glow, as if it shimmered.

However, in the eyes of the Aucuses, this mystical scene was different; all he was looking at was not a light curtain.

But, information!

Everything behind the curtain was nothing more than a tangled mess of disorganised information. Whatever was engulfed by the curtain had lost its sense of reality and had been reduced to basic fundamental blocks of information.

Everything that transformed was briny assimilated and woven together to form a strange creature, whether it was living or non-living before the transformation didn't matter.

Aucuses can see the an information inside following towards the centre and assimilating together, forming a strange white whirlpool in the centre.

He can see a woman in the middle writhing in agony, her body mutating uncontrollably as if she were on the verge of losing control.

Aucuses wasted no time in appearing in front of the expanding curtain and raising his hand to touch the curtain.

He came to a halt, because something captivated his attention.

Aucuses noticed a weak influence attempting to establish a connection through the information or knowledge known mixed within this chaotic whirlpool that was merging with the women at the time.

Aucuses looked up at the night sky, only to see a brown planet shining brightly, it was more like a blazing star than a planet.

Soon, a haunting melody echoed right beside his ears as he gazed at the bright brown planet.

Before reaching the ears, the melody seemed to reverberate throughout the astral world.

Aucuses heard a song; a song so alien that it couldn't have been composed by humans.

No, it's can't be even called a "song" or "melody"; it's more like a terrifying sound from the infinite abyss or void. The sound seemed to transcend all of nature, as if it represented the concept of "sound" itself.

This sound was truly horrifying enough to chill most people to their bones, but it was also mesmerizing and enthralling; completely capturing the listener's attention and tempting them to listen more; despite the horrifying feeling arouse within.

Despite being anything but human, it completely evoked the undeniable nature of humanity; curiosity.

Aucuses felt the might of the sound at the time, despite the fact that it had no power to affect him; just hearing the sound left an indelible impression on him.

He couldn't even put words together to accurately describe the sound.

This led him to discover that the sound had the ability to drive all beings under angel insane simply by hearing it, for the sound was beyond what a human mind could bear.

'Inextinguishable ravings' Aucuses recalled the name of an outer god who was vying earth from outside the barrier.

And he couldn't believe that the outer god was able to establish a weak connection to Earth through knowledge and information; even though this connection couldn't possibly be used to send any power; but the outer god was still able to establish a connection through the barrier.

Aucuses had never been so serious as he stared at the brown planet in the starry sky, and the haunting sound echoed in his ears.

Aucuses' golden iris began to glow, and soon his entire eyes were filled with light; a golden divine halo with light rays appeared right beneath his head.

Aucuses' expression became increasingly indifferent as a divine aura erupted from him.

He shifted his gaze to the curtain in front of him.

"Freeze." He spoke in an emotionless tone that reverberated through the space.

The shimmering curtain stopped in its path and the never-ending chaotic information became static; in the midst of it all, the screaming woman fell silent.

Everything outside the curtain was frozen in an instant, the swaying petals, the flying birds, and the slow-moving night clouds; everything stopped in their path.

Aucuses used his authority of "order" and the entire reality had been frozen under his command.

Aucuses turned to look the woman, his eyes still emotionless. The woman finally stopped screaming, and her process of losing control came to a halt as well, as it too was "frozen."

Aucuses turned to face the brown planet in the starry sky, which was still shining brightly, after seeing she was fine.

He raised his hand, brought his middle and index fingers together, and snapped.

Snap!

That sound echoed around the world as the bright light of dawn erupted from the world's horizon and the blinding golden sun rose.

The sun rose from the horizon at breakneck speed, reaching the centre of the sky almost immediately.

The blazing golden sun suddenly expanded and became extremely large, as if it desired to occupy the entire sky of the world.

The brown planet, which had previously shone brightly, was completely obscured by the golden sun and vanished from the sky.

Aucuses could hear the sound coming from the astral world becoming increasingly distorted, as if representing the outer god's rage. Then everything went quiet as the connection to the starry sky was severed.

His eyes dimmed and returned to normal, and his indifferent expression faded, giving way to a grave expression. The golden divine halo behind his head vanished, as did the enormous golden sun above him, returning the sky to night's embrace.

The night sky, however, had changed, as there were no twinkling stars or crimson moon.

Aucuses looked up again, this time to see the only darkness, which was like a veil that draped the entire sky, blocking and serving any interference from the starry sky.

Amanines was one who took action immediately after him.

Even though everything seemed to take a long time, it had only been a few seconds.

'I didn't think "they" would be able to expand their influence on Earth during this time period.' Aucuses pondered with a sense of helplessness. 'It appeared that after the fall of the ancient sun god, the barrier weakened significantly.'

As he walked forward towards the frozen curtain, Aucuses recalled the conversation between Klein and Adam in the original book.

He eventually stopped thinking about it because he couldn't stop it even if he tried, and instead focused on the frozen curtain and reality that surrounded him.

Here, he did not remove the law that had been established prior to using his authority of order, but instead began walking towards the curtain.

Aucuses raised his hands, and out of nowhere, a book appeared in his hands.

Then he walked through the curtain, which was filled with an endless chaotic flux of information.

Aucuses opened the book with empty white pages, which began flipping automatically with his actions, in the blurry environment with no sense of reality.

When he saw this, he snapped his fingers again, and the frozen chaotic information moved, this time towards the book in Aucuses' hands rather than the women.

The book appeared to become a magnet that attracted all of the chaotic information in the surrounding area; as the information was absorbed into the book, the empty white pages began to fill with distorted letters and paragraphs.

Soon, the surroundings returned to normal and the brown book was filled with content and the cover was closed after it.

The curtain had vanished, and everything inside it was restored to same as it was before the curtain engulfed it.

Now, Aucuses stood in the green grass, facing the massive grey tower with stained windows depicting a purple eye that contained countless resplendent stars.

This was the residence of the angel of wisdom under him, which also had been restored.

However, Aucuses did not enter right away. He took the book in his hand and began to open it.

As he began reading, his expression became solemn and serious.

"Inextinguishable Ravings... the blatherer from the infinite void...the originator of all sounds...the one who plays the symphony of apocalypse that heralds the end of everything..."

As he stared at these distorted words, Aucuses took a breather to calm his complex emotions.

'Symphony of Apocalypse.' Aucuses felt sense of powerlessness as he looked at this and thought the future, for even as a god, he wouldn't stand a chance against an outer god, though he might be able to escape if he was lucky.

He kept turning the pages and saw more information about Inextinguishable ravings, from it staying in Saturn to even performing a ritual pointing to it.

''Well, this knowledge is far too precise.' Auceses analysed. 'It's no surprise that the outer god was able to establish a connection through this. But even I and the other gods should be unable to obtain such knowledge unless the source of this.....'

Aucuses' eyes widened as he considered something.

'Artisan and Moses ascetic order.' Aucuses thought of the new information. 'The accident...'

'It seemed like I should pay a visit to artisan.' Aucuses reflected as his eyes flashed with coldness and indifference.

He then resumed to look of the new pages, eventually coming to a halt on a page that displayed something different.
