The surviving Flamechasers each had their focus.
Mobius focused on humanity’s potential to become higher. Su focused on looking for a world without honkai. Mei regressed through countless “parallel worlds” to discover Finality’s secrets.
The same went to Vill-V. It was just that her attention became displaced towards a singl...

Fifty thousand years.
What could someone do in fifty thousand years?
It differs from person to person. Some might become satisfied with the status quo like Hua. Stagnation is completely fine when it comes to an ageless person.
The others, however, struggle. The death of comrades did not deter them. Su, Mobius, and Mei found the...

What would infinite regression and a rational monster do when combined together?

That sentence encapsulated everything sh...

“There’s a lot of things to do.”
The ELF version of Aleph muttered. He is multitasking between the fusion of the three authorities and the influence he exerts on parallel Earth.
Understandably, the latter takes less effort. It did not affect his operations at all.

The second one to notice an abnormality was Su.
“Her theory… was it the right one all along?”

Acting as an Aeon for a year and a half is completely different from humans. The speed of their thoughts are exaggerated. Everything a human could see in one day, they could see in a glimpse. It does not even end there for Aeons’ glance.
One look was all it takes to process thousands of years of history.
As such, Aleph had seen th...

Aleph told everyone his future knowledge after the fifth major eruption. That included the future he knew of.

Recently, Aleph had been hearing voices inside his head.
They can be classified into three types:
“Aleph.”
“Ain.”
“Eternity.”
The first two belonged to voices he was familiar with.
“Earth…”

Language is the carrier of information. Everything can be transmitted through it. Aeons’ presence is no exception.
Propagation spawned “memes” whenever someone tried to communicate with an Aeon.

Aleph opened his eyes to the sight of Hua dozing off. When he confirmed he was back, he softly sighed.

Consequently, there are things that did ...

It was Aleph’s first practical test with Error. From the moment he received it, he knew the things he could do with it. Each authority of his, in fact, is capable of being ‘game-breaking’. It just so happened that [Error] is the best when it comes to breaking rules—even if it was a god’s authority.

Endless sparse darkness surrounded him. It ...
