The Monarch-Chapter 632: The monarch of monarchs

"The fundamental law of the monarch of oneself," Kayden murmured and…

Everything changed. In the blink of an eye, the entire universe went silent. All existing laws ceased to function, all mana, all existence was suppressed, as if nothing more than a peasant before a god.

Kayden did something not even the craziest of geniuses had considered. He took a step that not even the gods had dared to envision, let alone take. In that moment, his entire life, his entire existence was reestablished.

Upon understanding the true meaning of controlling a universe, Kayden finally took the final step needed to make his path a perfect law — and not just a perfect law, but something beyond that. Kayden elevated his law to a level superior to the highest fundamental laws. He did something unexplainable to most mortal magicians.

To the gods, it was even worse than unexplainable — it was completely insane to even think that a mortal had done something that not even gods had achieved in trillions of years. Few had even dared to think of it.

Kayden's law required no catalysts, no precepts or rituals. It was the origin and the end of all manifestation. Unlike normal laws, which followed the rules of the cosmos and coexisted with limitations, the law of the monarch of oneself imposed its existence upon all others, as if the universe were merely a reflection of his will. It didn't adapt to the world — it recreated it, reorganized it, and gave meaning to reality based on Kayden's existence.

Whereas traditional laws were born from concepts like time, space, soul, or elements, Kayden's law transcended any structure. It didn't represent a domain, but the supreme authority over being — the innate right to reign over oneself and everything one touches. No other law dared manifest in its presence, instinctively recognizing its inferiority. Even divine laws fell silent before it.

The universe entered absolute silence. Nothing functioned — everything was completely suppressed and stripped of meaning. The laws, the basic rules of existence — none of that mattered before this absolute force that Kayden was now demonstrating.

Kayden's very soul and existence had become a law. Kayden no longer existed in the conventional sense — at this moment, he was the material presence of the law of the monarch of oneself, a path elevated to the most absolute peak that had ever existed.

"Kneel," Kayden murmured. His voice echoed across the universe. Every law, every centimeter, every fragment of existence bowed. Mortals couldn't even hold their knees steady.

In every corner of the universe, mortals fell to their knees. There was no command, only an inevitable imposition. Magicians, kings, beasts, and entire civilizations bowed as if their souls recognized a force that could not be defied. Every living being, from the weakest to the strongest, bent without resistance. Kayden's presence erased any desire to remain standing.

What they felt was not common fear, but something much deeper. It was as if their souls were laid bare before an absolute truth. Many cried without understanding why; others lost themselves within their own minds. Even the gods felt small, crushed by a presence they could not define. Everything within them screamed: this is above all.

The lesser gods were feeling the pressure from Kayden's law. A mere mortal was pressing gods down, making them feel smaller than they truly were. The realization hit everyone at that moment — Kayden was a monster.

All the magicians who fought before him were geniuses, true prodigies, beings who defied all logic with their mere existence. But Kayden? He was simply beyond comparison. He wasn't competing on the same level as them — he wasn't even on the same scale.

Atlas and Han were fighting against Kayden's will. In the end, they were gods confronting a mortal. Their power was immense, yet their minds and their laws trembled. They could feel the force behind Kayden's mere presence.

Han started clapping. Even though everyone knew Kayden and expected something insane from him, deep down, everyone had already set him aside completely. He no longer seemed part of the great battle of magicians — his strength had seemed utterly suppressed in the face of the gods' power.

"The true master of masters," Han said and smiled, launching an attack against Kayden without hesitation. A god charged at a mere mortal — the outcome of such a clash should've been obvious.

A god delivered a slash directly at a mortal. There was no reason to expect anything other than Kayden's death — but...

"Bow." Kayden simply issued a command, and the slash disappeared as if it had never been launched. Its existence was completely erased, without reason.

Han's slash was practically a low-tier fundamental law just by existing in that moment. It carried all the knowledge a newly ascended god could possess. The mere movement of his arms was powered by the laws of his being. Yet even so, Kayden bent it as if it were nothing.

There was no battle, not even a clash of sparks between attacks. In fact, no one could even comprehend what Kayden had done — at least most couldn't. The high-level gods, however, were in complete turmoil. They had seen Kayden's law imposing itself over everything.

"Come to me," Kayden spoke again, and the mana of the entire universe converged onto his finger. It wasn't something simple like drawing mana — on the contrary, Kayden pulled all of existence under his control.

All the mana in the universe, the simplest fundamental laws, time in its natural fragments, and space in its raw form began to move. No being commanded them — it was spontaneous obedience, as if everything remembered to whom it belonged.

Streams of pure mana were torn from their natural flows. Ancient concepts like gravity, heat, light, and sound abandoned their functions and flowed toward Kayden. The laws didn't resist — they simply submitted. No magician understood how, but everyone felt it: the universe had bowed. freёwebnoѵel.com
