"If you were so confident, why didn’t you move instead? Your true body’s still sleeping, isn’t it? Why don’t you wake up and challenge the Anomaly like I did?
You talk about bravery and how strong you are, but how come you are still hiding in this little space when the enemy is already out there?"
The Entity of Light snapped, and Darkness—
"Why should I move when the enemy is targeting you?"
He laughed, but in his arrogance and spur of the moment, he said the words that should not have been said.
In an instant—
The entire room turned silent.
Darkness realized it as well. The other Infinities were the same. Even Seraphielle was no exception.
The Infinity of Light was no fool; she could see it too, but she had not said anything until now, not bringing up the topic since that would make her appear weak.
The other Infinities understood her thoughts, and since this did no harm to them, they did not bring up the topic either.
But Darkness...
His momentary slip-up might lead to something... much, much bigger than it should have been.
"Stop this nonsense."
But suddenly, Eternity spoke up, looking at all three Infinities.
"None of you are wrong, but none of you are completely correct either."
He began, wanting to shift the topic and Light’s attention.
"Ul’Thakar is strong and daring, but sometimes he is too daring—too quick to act even when the situation does not ask for it.
He is... reckless. If the Absolute Power is given to him, with his nature, it might... help the Anomaly instead, since he might become an easy target.
And Equarios is the complete opposite. While he doesn’t jump into situations, he thinks too much. He sees the negatives and the positives, but his focus mostly remains on the negatives—so much that unless he is absolutely sure of his victory, he won’t move.
Against an enemy like the Anomaly, he would freeze, even if he had the Absolute Power.
If we gave him the Power, he might not act in time and give the enemy enough time to grow and become an even bigger threat.
As for Seraphielle..."
Eternity then turned towards the Entity of Light and—
"While you talk about people, the fact of the matter is that you were the one who failed the people.
You lost the only bait we had, the only chance we had to get more information regarding the Anomaly.
It is because of you that we now hold no lead.
You do not hold the right to participate in the discussion."
He judged all three Infinities.
Seraphielle narrowed her eyes at those words. She—and all the others—could see where Eternity was going after all this.
Of course, Eternity knew it as well. He also knew none of them would agree no matter what he said, but convincing them wasn’t his main goal either. He just wanted to distract Seraphielle from what Darkness said before. As for the rest—
He didn’t mind giving it a try, even if the chances of things going in his favor were... next to impossible.
"Every single one of you is correct. Every single one of you understands that we need Absolute Power to stop the Anomaly, and all your ways are correct and at the same time have their own faults.
But... all of you are missing one crucial detail of holding the Absolute Power in your hands.
Absolute Power is... perfection.
There is no need for us to keep our flaws. Once one of us gets the Absolute Power, he can assimilate his thoughts, his memories, and even his powers with all others, becoming a being who thinks, acts, and moves like every one of us."
Eternity spoke, his words spreading a wave of surprise through the other Infinities. Of course, they knew this as well; with the power of the very Universe in their hands, inheriting the memories of the other three Infinities wasn’t impossible.
But...
It held its own risk.
All these Infinities had been around since the beginning of the Universe. Inheriting their memories would mean... inheriting the very Universe’s existence worth of memories... three times.
Even if they were Infinities, they weren’t sure if such a strong action would affect their own personality...
If they went with this plan, then in the process...
They...
They might become something... that even they wouldn’t recognize.
They might lose... themselves.
And as beings with egos larger than the very Universe itself—this was something they would never accept.
So they rejected this idea and did not give it any more thought. Eternity, however, was different.
"Of course, as all of you know, this comes with the risk of affecting one’s own personality, and without a major personality controlling our body, even with the Absolute Power, we would just become a shell with too much power and no control.
But...
It is different if I do it."
Eternity declared confidently, his body—an incomprehensible gathering of matter—flickering without stop, showing reaction for the first time since he had been here.
"I am Eternity. I have chased knowledge and information ever since I came into existence. I assure you, even if I inherit all your memories, I will not lose myself.
For me, your memories will only become pure information—information I will then use to perfect myself and defeat the Anomaly."
If it were her, we might have considered those words, because she indeed had what it took to absorb our memories and still be herself—
