Chapter 6: Get humbled.

I am the one above the rest of the text

I am the one below yet just as important.

————————

I stopped flying and started to descend down towards towards where Michael beat the shit out of the masked creature. I opened my palm and used creation magic to make a small glass vial. I then leaned down and scooped some of the creatures blood off the ground.

It never hurt to have blood of fantasy creatures to experiment on. In fact it only helped.

I caught the falling, now awake and screaming, SCP-507 with one hand and placed him on the floor.

"A-A-Are you insane?!?"

"Depends on the specific definition, but in most cases I am."

That shut him right up. Soon we began to walk again. Although I could fly, SCP-507 wouldn't like it in the slightest. And believe it or not, I would prefer to get home and not stay in this dimension.

After walking for a few hours we both wanted to sleep so we set up camp. I tied a rope around my waist and connected it to SCP-507's as well. The next morning we both discovered we hadn't left just yet and continued our walk west.

————-

Happily skipping along the ground I discovered a castle of some kind. SCP-507 asleep on my shoulder.

I flew into the air and observed the castle from miles above. It looked like around the castle was another town like the last one, only far bigger. Hundreds- no, thousands of regular slaves worked in the fields while dozens of the higher type of mask people watched over them.

And above those higher tier mask people

-lets call them tier 2 for now-

Was a tier 3 mask, at least I think so, it might have been higher. Instead of a rotting flesh mask or a mask made of muscles, was a regular mask, just severely elongated up and down, with the mask's chin being a sharp point and two ear like protrusions at the top.

If you had a fear of clowns I wouldn't suggest looking at the tier 3 mask, or in general.

The tier 3 mask raised its head- no, gigantic mask- to meet my own gaze.

It screached horribly loud directly at me. Causing all of the other masks to notice my presence and start to screech their own.

Fuck this. There was an old saying I always followed. If it moves, burn it with fire.

"Creation magic: Bombardment!"

I raised my hand in the air and created 3 magic circles. One for creating the outer shell of a bomb, the second for creating the bomb part, and the third for throwing it directly into the screamy fuckers.

5 large bombs manifested and shot downwards directly at the tier 3 mask. Moving at speeds the human eye couldn't comprehend. But this creature could, even though its mask covered its whole face, except the nose and mouth, it jumped up into the air, avoiding the bombs, but not the shockwaves.

With a whoosh the tier 3 mask was in the sky, unable to dodge my next attack.

"Mind magic: Gun to the head"

Two Magic circles formed. One to create the mental idea to, put a 'gun' to your head, and the other to get that thought there.

A invisible magic pulse was sent out from my hand and into the mask's… mask.

Once the invisible pulse reached the mask mid air I thought I had won.

I was wrong.

The very next moment I felt something akin to a slege hammer smashing into my skull. I lost control of the air magic propelling me into the sky and started to fall.

———————

Oh god where was I? Was I dead? No. Can't be. ROB would be in my face laughing his ass off then. So where did I end up? Only one way to find out.

My surroundings were bright white for an endless amount of space. I decided to try abd fly upwards for a better advantage point. I couldn't.

I had… no magic?

No! This can't be. I am destined for greatness. My potential is the highest there is! In a mere four years of half ass training I had become powerful enough to destroy mountains with ease!

It couldn't be! I ran as fast as I could forward until a few moments later I collapsed. Right, don't exercise at all, well expect for bed, but I haven't been doing it that long.

The pain of faceplanting in the floor struck me moments later.

No! No no no no no….

Finally, something besides pain struck me.

The realization of my arrogance.

I thought I had been destined for greatness because MY DEATH WAS FUNNY TO AN OMNIPOTENT BEING.

Who was I kidding? I was just a nerd who died commically. I had no special qualities, just arrogance because of power granted by another.

"Hey, dude, your making a fool of yourself on the floor."

Huh? I looked up from the floor which I had curled up into. And I saw another copy of me, just a bit younger looking.

Oh god this was my mindscape wasn't it?

The 'me' smiled knowing what I was thinking because he was me. "Yup, and I'm here because I wanted to take the golden opportunity to make fun of myself, without making fun of myself."

Making light of 'our' mental breakdown?

"Also all of your mind scape copies are dying rapidly and you need to get the fuck out of here if you don't want to be consumed by an eldrich horror and be asslmilated into an ever growing hive mind of drones." He breathed rapidly.

That put things into gear huh? Well I better follow my OWN advice.

The other me nodded and picked me up by my heel abd threw me into the sky at speeds faster than any normal human should be put through.

Oh fuck. I started to descend. Wait, this was 'MY' mind. I should be able to control anything here right?

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

And my face smashed into the floor.

"Don't worry, that happens the first few attempts. Mind talent is not included in magic talent."

All I could hear was the ringing in my ears. But that would soon change as in the horizon of my white mindscape started to turn black as countless copies of myself fought against an army of masks.

It would be awe inspiring if my life wasn't at risk.

"Throw me again quick!"

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

And my face smashed into the floor.

"Again!"

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

And my face smashed into the floor.

"Again!"

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

And my face smashed into the floor.

"A-again!"

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

And my face smashed into the floor.

"A-again…"

The air around me started to whistle.

The ground of white nothingness approached.

I braced myself for the impact.

And my face didn't smash into the floor.

The one time I DIDN'T believe it worked? Whats up with that?

The other me started to fade. "Looks like you did it! Finally. You know your fucking talentless?"

I flipped off myself. I started to float into the air without any use of magic. Well not magic magic.

I raised my hand into the air and created a hypothetical spell I had come up with.

"Star magic: Blue Supernova!"

Several blue stars shot out of the gigantic magic circles in the air. And once they reached the black taint of my mindscape the stars compressed in on themselves creating a beautiful lightshow.

My eyes burned blue just like my hair and the stars. A childish grin split my face in half.

Now this was why magic was so cool!

The black tain stopped in its tracks and started to slightly reverse. That was until a guttural roar echoed throughout my mindscape.

A huge lumbering creature made of elongated masks slowly emerged from the black tain.

"You, child, have for no reason decided to kill many of my blessed. You shall face the consequences of your actions."

It spoke assuredly of itself.

I would have been scared if I couldn't go,

"Dimensional magic: Plane shift."

And it was gone.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that."

A black mask pentrated my gut. Blue, magic enfuses blood, started to leak out of me.

Ok then, if you want to play it like this. Lets use what got me here in the first place.

"Mind magic: Urge to get the fuck out of here."

The collection of masks stumbled backwards slightly, several of its masks started to detach and leave.

I smirked, as I thought. If it was a hive mind, then some minds must be weaker than the others.

A chain was only as strong as its weakest link.

The creature in front of me roared and charged into my small body in comparison, engulfing me in multiple layers of masks.

"Mind magic: You are worthless, please die."

All of the masks around me started to wither from existence itself.

This wasn't as fast as I would prefer, this is my mind, I could possibly just add a few fancy words on top to make my magic stronger.

"Supreme Ultimate Compelling Mind Magic: Death of all who listen."

The creature around me vanished from existence.

Huh, who knew to kill a god all you had to do was add a few fancy words.
