Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 5108

Chapter 5108: My Dream, My Realm! II

After he talked to THE Beholder, Noah’s body flashed.

He appeared in the region where only the manifestation of THE Infiniverse and Ruination floated, that space at the center of everything he had built within his internal reality. The multicolored sea of brilliance stretched in every direction, but here at its heart, there was something almost like stillness.

He observed the endless strings emerging from the humanoid form of THE Infiniverse.

They stretched outward toward the Three Thousand Realms in configurations that declared her connection to everything within her depths. And now those strings had begun to be covered with multicolored golden Hadean light, the transformation she had initiated spreading through her very architecture as she followed where he had led.

Both of them rose when he appeared.

THE Infiniverse’s humanoid form shifted, those countless threads moving with her as if they were extensions of her will rather than mere connections. Ruination’s illusory figure solidified slightly, her features becoming more defined as she acknowledged his presence. They looked at him with attention that held something beyond mere awareness.

He waved his hand and smiled, gesturing for them to sit.

They did, and he came to sit with them in that space of multicolored brilliance where the rain of THE Pluvial Epoch fell without end. For a moment, he simply gazed at everything around them. The swirling realms. The expanding territories. The transformation slowly spreading through THE Infiniverse’s foundations.

It was peaceful here.

Despite everything happening across Observable Existence, despite the warnings from THE Beholder and the dangers that THE Gilded represented, this place felt like home in ways that nowhere else ever had.

"My dream is my dream," he said softly. "You two..."

He couldn’t even finish his words.

Because he already knew their dreams. He had always known, had felt their conviction through connections. They weren’t separate from him in the ways that others were. They were part of what he was becoming, and he was part of what they were becoming.

Ruination’s illusory form drifted closer.

She came to sit beside him. Then, gently, she leaned her illusory head against his shoulder. The gesture was tender.

"My dream is Master."

Her voice emerged soft but certain.

"I have been living my dream."

THE Infiniverse moved as well.

The countless threads and lines flowing from her form shifted with the motion, creating patterns of light that danced across the multicolored sea surrounding them. She came to sit behind Noah, their backs touching as boundless Infinity surged through the contact. The connection between them blazed brighter, blue and gold light weaving together.

"What you want to do, I want to do."

Her voice carried firmness that pressed against everything nearby.

"Who you want to kill, I will kill. Who you wish to protect will not perish."

Her expression held conviction that matched or exceeded what Ruination had displayed.

"In existence, it is just Master. That is the dream. That is my Everything. Men die, Cattle die, kinsmen die; the self may also die. But your glory never dies, I will ensure it."

BOOM!

...!

Noah smiled while feeling this boundless conviction flowing through him from both directions.

Ruination leaning against his shoulder. THE Infiniverse pressing against his back. Two consciousnesses that had merged with his existence, that had grown alongside him, that would stand with him regardless of what came. Their dreams were simple in their complexity, focused entirely on him in ways that should have felt like pressure but instead felt like strength.

He closed his eyes to feel everything.

"Our enemies are ones we don’t understand," he said slowly. "But we are also ones they don’t understand."

The multicolored sea rippled around them.

"We are weak, but also not. Because we know about THE Gilded Lifeforms, but they don’t know about me and my stage of life. They don’t know about Hadean."

He opened his eyes.

"So while the danger exists tremendously, as Ubergulden Adelheid and THE Beholder have made abundantly clear, we can move in our own unique ways. We can hide and mask what we are. What THE Infiniverse is. Even from those more powerful than us."

He felt THE Infiniverse shift slightly behind him, curiosity pressing through their connection.

"It would seem illogical and impossible and paradoxical to hide from those so much more powerful. But why not? The classification of Hadean exists without their knowledge. Well, yet, I hope."

His smile grew sharper.

"So let’s make the impossibilities possible."

THE Infiniverse’s voice emerged with shining curiosity.

"What did Master have in mind?"

Noah raised his hand as if grasping something distant.

As he spoke, the air before them began to shift. Light gathered in configurations that matched his words, visualizations of concepts emerging as his authority shaped them into being.

"Among the concepts I’ve enjoyed dabbling into and thinking of recently is the theoretical physics concept of...interdimensionality."

A flat plane of light appeared before them, thin as a sheet of paper.

"Imagine we are like inhabitants of a flat, two-dimensional world. A Flatland, living out our lives on a surface where there is only length and width, but no height. We can move forward, backward, left, and right, but the very concept of ’up’ is not only impossible to achieve, it is impossible to imagine."

The plane stretched outward, tiny figures appearing on its surface moving in only two directions.

"We also move through a fourth dimension, Time, though we experience it only in one direction. Well, for the most part. Unless I utilize temporal traversal."

"But I digress. All of that is two-dimensional thinking. Now consider if an object is three-dimensional."

"Let’s say a simple fireball. If it were descending through the plane of Flatland, to the inhabitants, it would not appear as a solid sphere. Instead, it would manifest as a tiny point that grows into a widening circle, then shrinks back to a point before vanishing entirely."

"They would think they witnessed a miracle. An intrusion from a higher dimension that they simply do not have the sensory apparatus to perceive in its fullness. They saw only a fraction of a higher reality."

"Interdimensionality describes forces, authorities, or entities that exist in entirely different dimensions and move in ways we cannot perceive. I wish to incorporate that concept into THE Infiniverse. To make it so you cannot be perceived at all."

"It won’t matter if we consider ourselves two-dimensional or three-dimensional and THE Gilded Ones three-dimensional or four-dimensional. I wish to decide for myself what I can hide from anything in any potential dimension, however illogical that may be."

"String theory says there are countless dimensions, but many cannot be perceived because they are curled up into infinitesimal spaces that are too small for anyone to see. I want us to begin doing that if possible."

"To utilize Infinity that makes things possible. To compact and squeeze THE Infiniverse. To hide it within the paradoxical weavings of Infinity to the extent that even beings of more power or higher Scales would still not perceive it."

"Because Scales are not definitive. I have just shown this. I am supposedly of THE First Scale, and yet I took down a Calymmian Proterozoic Scale entity at THE Second Scale. So what do the Scales actually mean?"

"Vakochev’s Scales of Existence are his. From this point on, I no longer even feel like quantifying myself with them. I am already acting outside the parameters and bounds of these Scales."

"Why can I not enact my own? Who decided that I was incapable of this?"

BOOM!

|Understood, Master.|
