Aeon of Creation Chapter 27 (Patreon)

Sniffles and sobs rang out across the battleship of the IPC as all the soldiers, scientists, egnineer's and other people huddled in the fetal position with their hands over their heads.

As though holding their hands over their heads would protect them from La Chancla...

I materialized beside the very Stoneheart herself in Topaz with her gem containing the Emanator Diamond's own power in my hand, and I tossed the gem up and down with interest as I wondered if I should just crush it to send a message.

But at Topaz looked up at me with literal tears in her eyes as she held onto her stinging fat ass that was a delight to see jiggle as it was struck with each blow. I looked upon her with my divine gaze and said regally. 

"I will hold onto this little Stoneheart for now. I will see you and the other Stonehearts all too soon I imagine, if you are good. I may give it back then... So consider yourself grounded Jelena."

Topaz flinched at me using her old name before she took the name of Topaz in joining the IPC. And then she seemingly mustered up some form of defiance and will as she hissed. "Jarilo VI owes the IPC a large debt! Even if you... You can't expect the IPC to just walk away with the support of the Amber Lord!"

I raised an eyebrow and said gently. "You already abandoned this world after learning it had a Stellaron on it more than five hundred years ago. The loan is null and void, this world is under my protection, and if you fire upon my Emanator again... I will kill you all, I will kill, every, single, IPC agent I see." I finished slowly but no zero hesitation.

These... People were beneath me. I was a literal Aeon, hell despite me being a half-baked Aeon, I was the Aeon of Creation, I could literally bring all these people back to life if I so pleased to find out who was 'innocent' and guilty.

Hell, I could make all these people immortal as well.

I leaned into towards Topaz and I said calmly. "I am not a genocidal monster like T̷h̸e̶ ̶H̶u̵n̷t̸ D̵e̸s̴t̸r̶u̴c̵t̸i̷o̸n̵, or N̵i̵h̷i̶l̶i̸t̷y̸, I am more akin to Akivili who believes in the mortal races. And my love is most concentrated with those I favor... Touch them again at your peril, and you are my warning to the galaxy."

With that, I leaned back and my form crackled with power before I teleported back onto the Astral Express... Wel,l I tried t,o but with a flicker of my form, I landed back on Jarilo VI in the city of Belebog as I didn't want to just be floating in space.

"Damn... They are in transit." I grunted with some annoyance as it took me a while to find and get on the IPC ship and it seems that in that time. My friends decided to get moving to the Xianzhou Luofu, apparently.

And seeing as the Astral Express ran on the power of Trailblaze, if I tried to force my way onto the train while it was in transit. I would break the train, break the cosmic rails it was running on, or just force my domain of Creation against the domain of Trailblaze.

In any of those scenario's that would result in Himeko fucking trying to strangle me if she didn't have a heart attack first.

[Send me a message for when you guys stop somewhere so I can jump back on.] I sent to the group chat. So that they could see it when they left the Silver Rails, they would get it in the group chat.

I sighed then, with a wry smile crossing my face as I realized I was now homeless again. Then with a shrug I teleported again.

I teleported directly outside of a rather humble home on the outskirts of the reclaimed parts of the city that were taken back from the corruption of the Fragmentum and with a knock of the door it's occupant came to the door.

Lo and behold was 'Madame' Cocolia Rand who raised an eyebrow at seeing me. "Oh, Jake, it's you was that you dealing with that IPC ship earlier?" 

I blinked before I realized that as the supreme commander of Belebog at one point she likely knew about the IPC and the debts that the past organizations of Jarilo VI had taken on to defend itself when the Stellaron first landed.

Still I nodded and said. "That's correct, anyway Cocolia I was wanting to know if you wanted to spend some time icognitio and just get some food or something?"

I needed something to do while the Astra Express spent the next few hours 'driving' towards the planet-sized ship that was the Xianzhou. So might as well spend time with one of my pathstriders.

Then Cocolia actually paused at my request before she actually giggled and asked with a teasing smile. "Are you asking me out on a date Jake?"

And I was caught a bit flat-footed, honestly, at her question. I thought with how I was a literal god hanging over her head and giving her power she wouldn't even think to tease me about that let alone ask.

But as I took in her curvy form and her open-ended dress that exposed the sides of her tight hips... I looked back up to Cocolia and said promptly. "I would love to take you out on a date Cocolia."
