The World Serpent

Deep within the Fortress Bastion, in the Throne Room of Azathoth. The Great Ruler of Azathoth sat on the throne and slowly opened her eyelids. Revealing her golden-amber eyes, which seemed to be boundless. She had finally completed the Mythical Daemon Evolution. It took time but compared to the strength given to her. It was cost-effective. 

Too cost-effective... 

"I can't believe my strength increased this much. I am finally equal to the Great Rulers of the Forest not only in terms of skills but also in my original attribute. With my current strength, I doubt there would be a lot within the Realm of Piksyon that could fight me. I also have tons of Origins Skills waiting to be used." 

"Not gonna lie, after thinking about it. I'm too overpowered. I'm not even that old, yet my strength is increasing at a nature-defying speed. Well, I did say that my existence itself has already defied nature by a long margin. Worrying about defying nature isn't something a serpent should do." 

Persia uttered as she sighed. She still found herself seating on the throne, and nothing extraordinary happened in the Throne Room. All was clean, and nothing had broken apart. She had expected the Throne Room to collapse, but it seems that the Mythical Daemon Evolution was calm as a peaceful lake on the surface but as heavy as the deep ocean on the inside. 

Persia clenched her fist as she was a bit excited about testing her skills. She instantly disappeared from the spot and teleported far away from the Great Forest. Since she was testing the new skills, which were Augmentation and Elemental Control, Persia understood the precautions she needed to do so that nothing like that previous accident would ever happen again.

She appeared on the outer edge of the Realm of Piksyon. The Border of the Continent. She only thought of going far, far away from the Great Forest, but it seems that she actually teleported at the end of the Realm of Piksyon. But, Persia was rather curious about the edge. After all, the Realm of Piksyon was always full of mysteries. 

She might as well have fun mystery-solving rather than waiting on her throne for something interesting to appear. With this thought, Persia started looking around. As she had expected, The place was surprising and shocking. She didn't know how to describe it, but it's like seeing something from a fantasy image. Well, Persia forgot that this kind of thing was obvious from the name of the Realm. 

Persia shook her head and sighed. The first thing she needed to do was test her skills, and after that, she could freely investigate. Such was her plan. With this in mind, Persia landed on the ground and found herself standing in a desolate place. Nothing was on the edge, and she was left alone without anyone other than herself. 

Anyway, the Edge of the Continent was interesting. It was like a vast gargantuan ridge. There was the ocean below the ridge, but other than that, she couldn't sense anything about it. When she thought of investigating the edge, she was thinking of swimming in the ocean. She might find monstrous beings resulting in herself having a snack.

"Let's stop thinking about the Edge for now. Let's use my Elemental Control. Now, what kind of Element should I control?" Persia was thinking about the Element she should control. Persia thought of a technique though it wasn't something that only had one Element in mind. It was a combination though it depended on her energy reserve if it had worked. 

"It's a technique that I use to fight against the World Administrator. Though, it wasn't as effective as I had expected. It was still an interesting technique." Persia uttered as she activated the Elemental Control within herself. She started thinking of the technique as everything around her slowly changed. 

Persia idly stood as she closed her eyelids. The breeze of wind rustled through her white-silver hair, and a strange thing above her was slowly forming. It was a rock that was slowly getting bigger and bigger. It turned into a planetoid with the size of 1,000 kilometers, but as time passed by. It turned into something magnificent. 

The Fluffy Clouds covering the heavens slowly opened up. A Planet revealed itself plastered on the heavens. It was the size of 10,000 Kilometers. Basically, what Persia had created was a single planet beyond the Heavens. The test didn't end there. There was a reason why Persia had sent herself to the edge of the Continent. 

Persia opened her eyelids as she sighed. Revealing her golden-amber eyes once again, she turned her gaze upwards and looked at her creation. She couldn't help but get proud of its magnificence. She then pointed towards the ocean, and as if answering her orders, the Planet started falling towards the vast ocean. 

"This should be enough. I might unravel the mystery by throwing my strongest technique towards the ocean. After all, this would be a test of how vast and endless the ocean of Piksyon is." Persia couldn't help but chuckle at the glorious scene. The Planet above Persia started piercing through the Heavens and was slowly beginning to land on the ocean.

She could see the horizon and the planet touching. With that, a radiant light shone over everything. The planet from afar was actually very small. It could fit on Persia's knuckle, which means that the size of the Vast Ocean was actually beyond Persia's calculation.

'What the hell? Wouldn't this mean that the Realm of Piksyon is bigger than it already looks? This place is nightmare fuel.' Persia thought to herself upon seeing the results of her test. The radiant light slowly faded as the Planet that touched the horizon disappeared. Nothing had happened, and the vast ocean continued as if nothing had touched it before. 

"I underestimated the size of the Realm of Piksyon. The Great Forest has the size of 100,000 kilometers in the radius of the World Tree or 200,000 kilometers in diameter. The Arcanum Region, Endless Grassland, Glacies Tundra, and Calidus Tundra are bigger than the Great Forest." The more Persia had spoken, the more she had realized the vast size of the Realm of Piksyon. 

"Based on my calculations, that might be obviously wrong. The Realm of Piksyon has a Diameter of 1 Million to 5 Million Kilometers. It might even be bigger, but what the hell? Compared to the Realm of Piksyon, Aren't I way too small? How can I be the World Serpent if I'm not even tiny as a single speck?" 

Persia was slowly losing her confidence upon thinking about her mission of becoming the World Serpent. Her current length was 100 kilometers. It didn't even reach the thousands yet. Persia was straying from her original mission of checking her skills. It was like discovering a gargantuan world that seemed to be impossible to understand and full discovery. 

But as she was Persia, the Great Ruler of Azathoth. It would be foolish for her to completely give up. Besides, Persia had a new idea within her mind. It was about combining Elemental Control and Augmentation. With these two skills, she might even cause problems for the Vast Oceans, which might be her hope for fighting against Heavens. 

"Now, let's use that same technique, but we will use the Augmentation skill along with it. There is no need to create a Planet, so I'll create something more powerful and better. It might consume most of my energy, but this is for my future." Persia had a face of absolute determination. The Vast Ocean was a huge wall that she wanted to challenge. 

Persia wanted to face the challenge and use her all. She closed her eyelids once again as a bright radiant orb lit up on the Heavens. It kept growing and compressing. It also kept getting stronger, and it didn't erupt into an explosion which was a good thing. 

After an hour, A Small Star glowed within the heavens. 

It glowed radiantly above the heavens, and everything around it slowly burned itself into damnation. The heat and power of the bright star got stronger and stronger, and finally, it was time for the Small Star to fall into the Realm of Piksyon. 

The Small Star fell with the order of Persia. Just like the planet which fell before it. Persia looked at the vast horizon of the ocean that seemed to appear boundless. She gazed upon the Small Star touching the edges of the horizon, and it was at that moment. Persia looked at the horizon with anticipation.

Though, the reaction between the Small Star and the Ocean wasn't within the anticipation of Persia. The Small Star got eaten by the Ocean, and no explosion happened. It was kind of shocking as there appeared to be thousands of mysteries hiding in the Ocean. 

"My energy reserves is almost depleted." 

"There's no need to be disappointed. I'm still far from my peak, so I guess I should lower my expectations for now." Persia started shaking her head as she had an expression of disappointment. She shouldn't have teleported into this place. She had previously thought that she was very overpowered, but after thinking about the vast ocean and the Realm of Piksyon. She was like a speck of dust in comparison.

Persia faded from the spot and went back to the Great Forest. There was no use in staying in such a place. She might need to regain her former confidence, but it might take a while to have a full recovery from the indirect blow of the ocean. 

Though, a Giant Humanoid Figure slowly appeared on the horizon.. It stood tall while gazing at the outer fringes of the continent.
