147 The story of the Successor VI

Punisher, a supreme being tasked with delivering judgments and executions to the world, was taking his usual respite in his realm.

Rest was a necessary aspect of his role; after dispensing judgments upon the gods or other life forms, he would slumber for a couple of years before returning to his work.

In this void of emptiness, where nothingness reigned supreme, the Punisher floated in a state of deep slumber.

Yet, even in his restful state, he remained alert to the energy that coursed through the world. Thus, when a potent force surged into existence, it was impossible for him to ignore.

Instantly roused from his slumber, the Punisher's eyes opened to a swirl of power and energy.

He peered into the vast void that surrounded him, and with his gaze, he discerned the source of the disturbance.

The energy originated from a being, one whose power far surpassed his and one that he was all too familiar with.

"Punisher! We need to talk." The creator voiced out as she walked through the gap in space.

She was not in her human form, but rather in her supreme being form, where she was just a human-shaped energy.

The punisher opened his eyes and looked at her, "You finally showed up… how have you been doing as a mother?" He asked sarcastically.

"It looks like I underestimated Observer's authority… he acted, one of his authorities has affected me." Creator said, exposing the dark streak eating away at her chest.

"Oh my." Punisher uttered while he was upside down, the world had no sense of direction or sides, there was no ground to stand on or sky to touch.

"Ahh, I see it now, looks like he made a rule and you've somehow broken it." Punisher said, "Both our authorities work together, if he makes the rules, I make sure they are strictly followed".

"That's why I am here? I need you to cancel out the punishment." Creator requested of the Punisher.

"Come now, you know we can't just break the order… father might be asleep but he's still very much aware of whatever is going on".

"I know…"

"Look, you and I know Observer isn't really after you, your role is way too important, what he's after, is the human child you are harboring." Punisher explained, "He wants you to get rid of the kid, Creator… and I'm in support too".

"Getting rid of my offspring is out of the option, I'll happily die if it means keeping him alive." Creator spoke back.

The Punisher looked at her for a while, trying to understand what was going through her mind.

He moved closer and uttered, "This attachment you have to this child… is one I don't understand… we are deities, we can't have emotional attachments to our works".

"This child you speak of is not just any child… he is my Successor… when I do one day die… he will carry on as the Creator of the world until I return." The creator proclaimed, looking at The Punisher with utmost determination.

"Wow, you're serious aren't you… he's human… he can't be a creator if he can't create".

"You'd be surprised." Creator hinted, "Ethan created multiverses, a whole generation of species and even brand new words all on his own… with no knowledge of whatever creation I have done".

"What?".

"He did it behind my back. He probably thought he could hide it from me, but he's bad at hiding." The creator said with a smile on her face, "One of the creations he made…. I named them the Angels and they are far better than whatever I created on earth… Ethan will be my Successor".

"You speak of the boy as if he is far better than you… if that's the case then I'd very much like to see him." The punisher said with a curious tone.

Knowing that the Punisher was curious enough to ask was a good sign that he would probably help her and she was willing to take that chance.

Back at the pocket dimension, Ethan and Hinako were outside the mansion, having a picnic. There were different kinds of food arranged on the ground for Ethan.

But just when the enjoyment was picking up, one of the security angels came running toward the picnic with an alarming speed.

She immediately stopped in front of them and bowed her head, "Miss Hinako, come quick, there's something you have to see".

Hinako followed the angel and took Ethan along so they could see what the angel was fussing about. When she arrived at the scene, Hinako immediately understood why the angel came running to her.

Right in the middle of the field, was a male angel, having his body painfully devoured by the darkness coming from the crack in the sky.

All the angels watching were confused, but at the same time ready to defend the world if it turned out to be a threat.

"Here, take care of the young master for me." Hinako said to the angel beside her before she began advancing toward the dying angel.

As she walked, she summoned a sword that appeared in her hands before coming to a stop in front of the guy.

"P…lease kill me!" The male angel cried out, with dark liquid flowing from his nostrils, eyes, mouth, and other open spaces in his body.

"I can not help you… but I can put you out of this, if you are okay with it, of course." Hinako calmly uttered, that was the first time she had seen something like this… but seeing the pain the angel was going through led her to that decision.

"Please do…" The male angel sobbed.

"Very well."

Hinako held her sword tightly, getting ready to slice the head of the angel. Her hand shook as she raised the sword to the sky.

"Ahhh!" She screamed, but just at the last minute, an ominous voice came from her back that forced her to stop her action.

"So… this is the child, the one who is supposed to be the Successor." The cold voice spoke.
