Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) POV
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) moved through the void of True Worlds.
The ■ that lived in the void scattered, sensing his arrival.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) ignored them all and kept sinking.
"This better be something important. We are at war with Seat of Beasts and Seat of Disaster, so if you are wasting my time, know that I won’t let you off easily," Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) grumbled.
[Understood, master.] Heavenly Records answered.
As Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) kept descending, they were nearing the target location.
[Please, reign in your presence, master.]
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) clicked his tongue.
But he did as he was asked, knowing the such a weak True World would be destroyed if he did not do that.
After making sure he was not leaking any aura, or presence, he descended into the True World before it.
It was a ’modern world’.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) looked around, expanding his senses.
"This world doesn’t have any supernatural abilities, or anything else. It’s just a Zeroth Boundary World. What are we doing here?" Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) asked.
[You will know soon, master.]
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) nodded.
He had come to this remote True World, only because Heavenly Record had asked him to.
Otherwise, for someone of his statue, he would never set a foot in such a weak place.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) followed Heavenly Records instruction. He purchased some flowers from a flower shop, brought an expensive gift, and had everything packed before taking a taxi to a specific location.
"So, what are we doing here?" Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) asked.
[You will know soon, master. Now, please check your pocket.]
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) did that.
He took a note that had a name written on it.
Neo Hargraves.
[Master, you should use this name in this world when someone asks for your identity.]
[This name is—]
"My name, I know," Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) answered with particularly no emotions.
[Then, it should be okay to use this name as an alias in this world, correct?] Heavenly Record asked carefully.
For beings at Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) level, names carried a lot of meaning.
Name represented power, prestige, history, and a lot more.
The more a name was known, the longer it had "lived", the stronger that name was.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) had stopped using "Neo Hargraves" as a name long ago.
It was "young" compared to his other names, that he had used for far longer.
"No. I won’t be using this name," Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) said.
He was proud of his current name, and while using a weak name would not affect his strength, it would affect his pride.
[Master, please, use it just for—]
"Heavenly Records, this world has a species called, humans, right?"
[Yes.]
"If they live for eighty years, then one second compared to those eighty years is all the time I’ve spent using the name ’Neo Hargraves.’"
[...]
Heavenly Record understood what Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) meant.
He would not use a name that did not represent him for who he was.
Heavenly Record sighed.
They could only hope that meeting his ’family’ would give him a powerful shock, and make him recall his past.
Because as Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) currently was, he wouldn’t bother looking into the past of "Neo Hargraves" even if Heavenly Record asked.
For the current him, it was a worthless history.
The taxi dropped Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) at a wedding venue.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) stepped out, and entered the venue.
He saw the place, and there were quite a few people around.
Some of them began looking at him, not recognizing him.
A man with blonde hair approached him.
"You are?" he asked.
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) stared him.
[Master, he is Henry, and—]
"I’m a friend of the groom," Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) said stiffly.
For some reason, looking at the man and hearing his name made his heart churn.
Henry looked at the gifts and nodded, guiding Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) to sitting venue.
Henry made some small talk, but Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) could not engage in the conversation.
He remained silent.
Because the more people he saw in the venue, the more his heart was twisting.
’Are we under attack? Why are my emotions out of control?’ Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) asked.
[Please, do not worry, master. I’m observing the surroundings, and there is no attack.]
Eternal Transcendent (Endless Hell) frowned.
If there was no attack, why was his heart beating so fast as if it would leap out of his chest.
Seeing he had some reaction, Heavenly Record began to name the people around them.
[Master, that is Amelia. That one is Daniel. That is Arthur.]
