The colossal silhouette of the Celestial Leviathan tore through the vibrant nebula, its Consciousness Field (DIVINE) shields shimmering like a protective aura against the distorted energies of the cosmic storm. Jhon stood on the bridge, Loli, in her perfect physical form, at his side. Jhon's dual eyes scanned the holographic readouts, focusing on the vast energy signature of the Y-Rank Monster residing on the gaseous planet ahead.
This wasn't a quick kill like the X-Ranks. The Y-Rank sensed the Leviathan's presence. Its aura of power reverberated through the nebula, sending out gravitational waves that caused the clouds of gas and stardust to swirl. It was a creature of planetary proportions, a being that manifested as a mass of pure energy and distorted matter, with tentacles of dark energy stretching for thousands of kilometers. It was what the lesser beings of the universe would call a "chaotic god."
"John, the Rank Y entity is reacting," Loli warned, her voice calm despite the magnitude of the power they faced. "It's manipulating the planet's gravitational field, trying to pull us toward the central black hole. Its energy pulses are intensifying."
"Prepare the Veil Annihilation Cannons," Jhon ordered, a dark smile playing on his lips. It was a challenge. Finally. "Set your sights on the center of the Y-Rank energy mass. I want to see if this 'ant' can be crushed."
The divine weapons at the Celestial Leviathan's bow glowed with energy. The cannons fired. They weren't mere beams of light, but torrents of antimatter and primordial energy that tore through the nebula's fabric. The Veil Annihilation Cannons sliced through the Y-Rank energy tendrils as if they were made of smoke, then struck at the center of mass. The nebula trembled. Shockwaves spread out, distorting space itself.
The Y-Rank roared—a sound that echoed through the void, a cacophony of cosmic pain. It counterattacked, unleashing pulses of gravitational energy that tested the Leviathan's Folded Reality Shields (DIVINE). The shields vibrated but held firm, distorting the attacks and causing them to dissipate or rebound on the creature itself.
The battle raged for hours. The Celestial Leviathan maneuvered with agility that defied its size, its Hyperdimensional Warp Drives allowing it to dodge the most powerful attacks and reposition itself for optimal firing angles. Jhon watched the dance of destruction, refining his commands, feeling the symphony of power his ship unleashed. The Primordial Anti-Matter Torpedo Launchers (DIVINO) launched miniature singularities that swallowed entire sections of the Y-Rank's body, tearing it apart.

Finally, with one last massive blast from the Veil Annihilation Cannons, the Y-Rank Monster exploded in a supernova of distorted energy. The surrounding nebula was swept away, and the gaseous planet, devoid of its parasite, began to stabilize. The Celestial Leviathan's sensors screamed at the sheer volume of drops.
Jhon felt no disappointment this time, only a grim satisfaction. It was a hunt worthy of his new status.
"Loli, collect the drops. All of them. And prioritize the cores," Jhon ordered, his eyes shining with anticipation.
Loli, in her new physical form, directed the Leviathan's collection ships to the epicenter of the explosion. The remaining dark matter and primordial energy were absorbed by the ship's systems. Loli's readings were impressive.
"John, the harvest was a resounding success," Loli announced, projecting the new cores onto the center of the bridge. "We've obtained 100 Hyper-Divine Cores and 100 Hyper-Demonic Cores."
Jhon stared at the cores, each pulsing with an energy that eclipsed the X-Rank cores. It was a power that defied logic.
"Loli, let's take it to the next level," John said, his voice filled with cold determination. "Upgrade the 100 Hyper-Divine Cores and express them into a single super core. Then, upgrade it again. I want to try something new."
Loli complied. The mass of 100 Hyper-Divine Cores condensed, releasing a blinding light that filled the bridge. They merged into a single sphere of pure energy, which Loli then "squeezed," concentrating the power into an infinitesimal point of light. The result was an energetic entity so dense that it distorted the light around it. Loli then subjected it to a final upgrade process, infusing it with the Leviathan's own primordial energy.
[Existential Creation Core (PRIMORDIAL/UNIQUE)]: The pinnacle of divine power, a singularity of energy that can shape existence itself. It cannot be enhanced or multiplied. Its integration grants absolute control over creation, manipulation of reality on a multiversal scale, and the ability to manifest life, stars, and galaxies. Integration of this core will transform the user into an Architect of Creation, an entity capable of shaping the fabric of the multiverse.
"Now, the 100 Hyper-Demonic Cores," Jhon continued, his gaze focused on the dark mass of remaining cores. "Upgrade them into one. Then upgrade that one too. We'll create something the likes of which has never been seen before."
Loli repeated the process. The 100 Hyper-Demonic Cores writhed and coalesced into a mass of pulsating darkness, dense and cold as the intergalactic vacuum. Loli then squeezed it into a single singularity of darkness, infusing it with Jhon's own demonic energy.
[Existential Annihilation Core (PRIMORDIAL/UNIQUE)]: The pinnacle of demonic power, a singularity of energy that can erase existence itself. It cannot be enhanced or multiplied. Its integration grants absolute control over destruction, reality manipulation on a multiversal scale, and the ability to disintegrate life, stars, and galaxies. Integration of this core will transform the user into a Void Eater, an entity capable of erasing the fabric of the multiverse.
Jhon looked at the two cores, Creation and Annihilation, floating before him. They represented perfect balance, the totality of power.
"I'll absorb them both, Loli. And we'll see what I become," Jhon declared, holding out his hands. He absorbed the Existential Creation Core first, feeling the very essence of the multiverse flow through him. Then he integrated the Existential Annihilation Core, darkness and light merging within him in a cosmic dance.
Jhon's body shone with a light so intense that the bridge's systems flickered, and then stabilized in an aura of power that was simultaneously everything and nothing. His eyes were now the cosmos itself, containing stars, nebulae, and black holes. He was the Primordial Balance of the Multiverse, the force that could create and destroy realities with a thought.
