I am secretly a 12th Dimensional Eldritch God

A singular crimson line appears on the starless sky before dark ichor bleeds out from the crack as it slowly splits into an oval shape of an eye. A beautiful kaleidoscopic aurora light filled the sky, enshrouding the eyes and enraptured those who had seen its beauty. However, rather than fascination with the beautiful display. They felt an intense ominous feeling and dread filled their mind.

The eyes glanced at them before losing interest at them much to their relief. It was looking for something, not them for sure as the pupils shifted around. But when it couldn't find it, more crimson lines appeared in the sky, opening up into lesser eyes that proliferated until it blotted out the entire sky.

A moment later, the pupils in the eyes that shifted randomly suddenly stopped and turned to one direction as if it had found its target.

The first eye suddenly shut close followed by a sharp increase of dread felt by everyone below it.

When it opened once more, the eye was gone. Just an empty socket left and a massive blob of its ichor that leaked out like a waterfall until the eye socket was fully opened.

Most didn't notice or understand the situation yet. It is none of their fault. But the White Dragon Emperor inside the Divine Dividing was left without words. But he quickly snapped out of it and warned his host.

"Run!"

The Divine Dividing glows briefly when Albion shouted to snap everyone out from their long stupor.

"Wha—"

"Just run damnit! Don't ask questions! Run!"

Albion shouted with a very agitated and terror stricken voice like he is having a terrifying flashback which shocked everyone since they never expected to see Albion, a proud Heavenly Dragon in such a sorry state.

Sirzech reacted faster than Vali and used his Demonic Power to swoop everyone into a net he conjured before escaping as Albion instructed.

"What is that thing?" Sirzech wanted to take a peek behind him but he didn't dare as the feeling of intense dread awakened his baser instinct to just run and run as far as possible.

The wings behind Vali's back glowed but no words came out from Albion. His silence speaks more than his words in this situation. But he eventually talks when Sirzech returns to the Kuoh Academy that is empty and devoid of life.

"That thing… Impossible. Great Red should be guarding the Dimensional Gap… How? Ophis… Right! She betrayed us. She worked with that thing and conspired against Great Red." Albion and seems to be talking to himself. Mumblings about something but did not elaborate it further to those who are listening as he spiraled down into insanity.

"We are doomed!" Albion chanted as if foretelling their fate and the fate of the world itself.

"What the hell are you talking about, Albion! Aren't you the Heavenly Dragon? What is so terrifying about that thing anyway?" Vali felt agitated and restless seeing Albion in such an incomprehensible state that he could never have imagined.

But, to Vali's side. Sirzech looked dazed as he connected the dots. From the very beginning of his interaction with Ray to Grayfia's reaction that day all the way to how Albion called Ophis a traitor for conspiring against Great Red. After all, there is a reason why many fear and respect the Great Red. He is the first line of defense against the being from outside the Dimensional Gap, the universe itself.

When the realization kicked in, Sirzech instantly covered his body with Power of Destruction and became an Incarnation of Destruction. Before anyone could stop him, Sirzech bolted towards the main eye that just gave birth into something.

"RAAAAYYYYYY!"

Only a wrathful howl could be heard amidst the silent ghost town aside from the billowing wind.

Then, a cataclysmic clash took place between Sirzech and the entity born from the eye.

Flashback to an hour ago.

With the help of Serina, Ray will re-emerge with the consciousness of his true body.

"Are you sure this will be safe?" Ray held doubt to the process as he could feel a tingling from the back of his mind trying to warn him of something bad.

"Don't worry, I will be here in case anything goes awry." Serina gives Ray reassurance before urging him to do it.

Trusting Serina, Ray gives his wives and daughters a last look before his body glows brightly in dark brilliance and then vanishes without a trace.

For the next moment, nothing happened. But Serina continued to stare at the sky with an impeccable focus while his wives and daughters started to show a look of concern.

But just before Sirin was about to open her mouth to ask. The cloudless blue sky suddenly turned black as if ink was slowly dripping into the surface of the water.

Gradually the sky turned pitch black not even the sun is visible anymore. But oddly enough, their surroundings are still visible without the sun shining upon the world.

"AHHH!"

Ophis was the first to writhe in pain followed by Abby and the next person with the highest concentration of Ray's essence implanted in them.

They collapsed lifelessly like marionettes with their strings cut off before a streak of black formless blob escaped their body and flew back to the sky.

The unaffected ones quickly tried to help but sooner or later, their turn arrived while Serina watched them with a detached and inhuman smile.

Ravel, the last one to remain conscious and persisted despite the pain because of her Phenex Clan Regeneration power. She stared at Serina venomously.

"What… have… you… done…" She forced out her question while flickers between staying conscious and passing out with bouts of pain flaring up as Ray's essence forcibly ripped out from her soul.

Serina continued to smile and shook her head.

"Me? I have done nothing. He is simply reabsorbing his power to become complete once more." Serina shrugged innocently before placing her hand like a claw over her face and ripped it away to reveal a completely different person underneath with her expression and voice cold as ice. "Otherwise, we cannot fully kill him and that would be very troublesome."

A blade that look similar to a Khopesh appeared in her hand with a burst of milky mist before she is going to stab the persistent Ravel to expedite process but before she could the Hunter disguised as Serina frowned and retreated a dozen steps with a burst of silvery mist when a black dome appeared and swallowed all the collapsed wives and daughters of Ray and everything enveloped by the dome.

"Tsk! He regained his awareness faster than we anticipated." The Hunter spat before she vanished from the mansion all together.
