I.. Am God?

Chapter 187 Changes After Months (1)



Solomon's materialized body then appeared behind him as the former asked him with full seriousness, "Are you ready to comprehend all the books that are stored here?"

Andre nodded with determination in his eyes, "If what I saw would be the inevitable future, then I would already do everything I want before that inevitable happens."

He then snapped his fingers, activating the Dream Realm's function of slowing down the time inside. While the time dilation slowly took effect, Solomon noticed something that shocked him to the core.

"A day here is just a minute outside." Solomon muttered, "That's a huge improvement!"

Not minding Solomon, Andre went straight inside and picked a book to read, not letting others except when he wanted to clarify things with Solomon.

Having lost track of time, the two unknowingly stayed inside the Dream Realm for three months in normal time, which equates to a total of more than three hundred and sixty-six years inside, reading and comprehending the books inside!

Inside the library..

Sitting on a bench while holding a book on his right hand and a cup of coffee on his left, Andre glided his sight on the words written on the book. He then placed it down and called out, "Solomon!"

"What is it?" Solomon raised his head and straightened his body from ploughing the fields beside the mansion and looked at Andre's way and shouting. He was wearing a farmer's clothes that were stained with dirt and a hat made of straw.

Andre looked at Solomon weirdly and spat, "What the hell are you doing, ploughing the fields? This is a Dream Realm, remember? Why don't you just plough it instantly?"

"Because I'm bored!" Solomon clicked his tongue in displeasure. "It's been years since we entered here and you started reading!"

"It's already years?" Andre raised his eyebrows. "I think it's just been months."

"Yes," Solomon threw his hat on the ground and moved towards Andre, "if we're talking about the outside!"

"It's been more than three hundred years, Andre!" Solomon complained.

"Three hundred years.." Andre became absentminded and sighed. He didn't realize it, but all these years that were spent inside this Dream Realm, Andre only thought of learning everything that he can, before facing that person and possibly having a bout with him.

But now, he found himself laughable. Why would he fight? They were one and the same. What that person wants would be his fate. His soul is his soul, and that wouldn't change. Andre realized that he stands to have nothing to gain with this.

Suddenly, he shook his head and woke up. He then placed the book he was reading down and pushed it to Solomon, "Hey, what's this? I thought it was a spell, but it was just a story."

"Hmm?" Solomon tilted his head in confusion and picked up the book. Later, he let out an 'ahh' sound of understanding and replied, "Oh, the Curse.."

"Yeah, no. It's a story, but not quite. It can be casted but you would need to be very powerful, as it tackles the fate of two or more souls from different universes." Solomon explained.

"Care to explain more?" Andre inquired.

"Then.." Solomon breathed in and began. "Although the origin story is not very clear, it is said that it involved two women in love with each other. Apparently, they somehow offended a very powerful god and were cursed to the point of the god sacrificing his entire existence just to enact it. Because of the curse becoming so strong, even the souls of those two people in different universes became affected by it."

"The curse was that they would always meet each other, through different timelines and different worlds, and fall in love with each other deeply. They would be deeply connected as time passes, but their love would always end in a bad way, with either one of them cheating, forgetting, and breaking the others heart while their other half would either die through a disease, suicide, or live through the pain until the person finally dies. Their genders could also vary from every different universes, so encountering one and identifying them would be one in impossible."

"Wow." Andre let out a sigh of pity, "That god is ANGRY. VERY angry."

Solomon laughed, "Even I feel pity for those two. It wasn't specified why the god was offended, but it is a certain that the couple was very pitiful."

"Anyways, I got to get another book." Andre prepared to stand up but he was immediately stopped by Solomon, "Woah, hold there for a minute, now."

"Why?" Andre tilted his head in confusion. "It's been three months outside! Go out! Do you know what's happening there?!" Solomon exclaimed angrily.

Andre let out a gasp and exclaimed, "Oh!" He quickly returned to his body outside, leaving Solomon behind.

When Andre opened his eyes outside, he turned around, and when he saw that nothing changed, he sighed with relief. He then took his phone, but found it to be dead; it was out of battery.

Seeing that he cannot do anything about that, he just charged the phone first. But it would take hours for it to fully charge, so he picked up the remote control on the table and opened the TV.

"Good afternoon, people of the Philippines. We present to you the news of today." The man on the television said with a serious voice.

"With the fall of the Ottoman Empire a month ago, Greater India has finally annexed the Middle-Eastern territories(Pakistan to Egypt)  that were at the hands of the United Powers. Using their powerful army of supernaturals and with the aid of the Greater Xia, they vanquished the western foes and liberated the East from the Western grasp!"

"But with the great news comes an equally serious matter as the Lichfiend extends his deathly domain to the Siberian Tundras. With the cold in his aid, his power grows unstoppable, with any attempts to bomb them to be futile struggles. With the Siberian Tundra finally in his palm, the Order of The Soviet Russia is unfortunately no more."

"The Prime Minister of the Greater Xia, Wu Xiaoping, announced at his press conference that 'they would do all that they can to stop the Lichfiend from going further down their sovereignty and to protect the people of the East."

"Meanwhile, our current King, Emanuel Maharlika, proved himself to be worthy of the Philippine Throne with his eighteen months as he leads multiple successful defenses against the United Powers' naval assaults. King Emanuel also launched successive aids to our allies as our powerful Philippine Navy sailed through the seas and vanquished the enemy fleets that are aiming defeat us."

"Salamanca, our Supernatural Agency, has also helped in fighting in the western frontlines as our curses and beast taming skills utilized the powers of nature to mow down the enemies!"

The woman that was sitting beside the man then sighed, "How the times have changed. Right, Arnold?"

"You're right about that, Korina." Arnold, the newscaster, nodded. "Months ago, our world was a haven of peace, but now, it has already turned into this."

"Anyways, onto the next news.."

"What the hell?!" Andre widened his eyes and exclaimed. "See? How just those three months that you're gone turned the world into this mess?" Solomon appeared behind him and clicked his tongue.

"Why didn't you tell me?!" He shouted with anger. "I was telling you, but you're not listening!" Solomon shouted back.

"Aish!!" Andre grabbed his phone that was charging and filled it with energy. He didn't find a need to do so before but, seeing what was happening, it was urgent for him to access his phone.

He then booted it up. After a while, he saw the phone sending notifications after notifications. In total, there were 615 missed calls, 3,631 messages, and 1,931 emails.

He clicked a number and called it. As soon as he did so, the phone was answered, "President? President, is that you?!" The man's shout sounded from the speaker.

"Yes, yes." Andre replied. "Where have you been?!" The man yelled in anger.

"You dare shout at me now, Commander?!" Andre shouted back.

"I should be the one who was angry." Faintly, Andre could hear the muttering voice of the man behind the phone. "Sorry, President. It's just that the stress from all these events just made my mind in heat. I'm sorry."

"Don't be. I have been gone for a long time, so you really do have the right to be angry." Andre sighed and replied.

"So, what happened when I was gone?" He asked.

"We should just meet personally, President. I'll send you the address." Commander Calliroth said before ending the call.

Later after the call, the address was sent to Andre's phone. Andre immediately went to the door and used his ability. When he opened the door, the other side of it has Commander Calliroth, seated on a chair, looking very different from before.
