A/N: It’s written in the 1st PoV. We all know what to expect…

Hugging the two girls in both arms, I don’t know what to say. I woke up with two Kurumis in my arms. Now, there are two Huas present.
This scummy behavior made my feeling of guilt stronger.
If I did not use Lord of the Mysteries to clean up all traces, I would have been hung upside-down long ago.
Unlike Kurumi, Hua’s figure was flat. I did not feel the same softness Kurumi posses...

Aleph spent the entire night teaching the two Kurumis a lesson they would never forget. Before he knew it, both of them were knocked down. The two Kurumis took both his arms. Their regular soft breaths swept his chest.
‘I used it to let them sit on chairs…’
They essentially existed as projections (thin air). They could not interact with objects of the material world.
That’s where Aleph came in. He used his Lord of the Mysteries to let them sit on chairs and ...

Real Universe, Earth.
The projection does not act so much as an incarnation. It is as it says: a projection of themselves. They do not exist inside the Lostbelt. In a conventional sense, they are literally air.
It is a method the parallel counterparts cooked up for the other women to meet up with Aleph. It is a kind of add-on along with the powers they passed on.
It was a different case with Kurumi. The entire Project Stigma on the Lostbelt Earth made “Earth” th...

The small talks ended there. Aleph felt like he had successfully passed through the crisis.
However, he could vaguely feel that another ‘crisis’ is brewing up.
“Ahem. Do you all want to visit our home in Xianzhou?”
*****
“Hm? What are you thinking of?”
It was an exhausting day. Aleph brought all four women and toured all throughout Xianzhou. Their final spot, the Taixuan Dojo, forced Hua and Senti to confront them.
Now, except for Mei, everyone ...

‘Our salted fish is growing a new brain?’
Thinking of the usually deadbeat Kiana who slacks off in class, Aleph was in a slight disbelief.
He readjusted his ELF form’s expression as he stood up. He floated in front of the door.
Just then, he sensed someone else making a connection with him.
Mobius, Mei, and Vill-V were able to ‘project’ themselves inside the Lostbelt due to their parallel counterparts.
‘Did they have a prior agreement?’

Finality is cold and ruthless. They see things akin to an open book. They oppose all concepts. The absurdity of their presence being in the ‘future’ was something else.
A core feature of the game, Finality’s Vision, allows players to unlock new events even if they aren’t done with the story yet.
‘Back then, it’s Finality’s intent. Now, it’s the way they see the world.’

It has been a week since Aleph settled the affairs on the parallel Earth. Mobius came to his house yesterday. So many things happened during this span of time that he couldn’t immediately accomplish the three things he planned.
As of now, only the meeting with Akivili was completed. It brought him Terminus’ intentions behind the ‘test’ it gave to him. Akivili was screwed over and was sent to the gulag equivalent, with all of her previous Trailblazers disappearin...

Aleph felt refreshed upon seeing Mobius’ reaction.
‘I can still beat her.’
When it comes to the unofficial teasing rankings, the only people he could not move were Mei and Kurumi. The rest is not a problem at all.
It took twelve entire hours for the changes to halt. Judging by the time, Aleph knew they could not proceed for today’s itinerary. Meeting the Genius Society members will be left tomorrow.
By then, he has a scheduled meeting with the Stellaron Hunters...

Finality’s arrangements had been living rent-free inside Aleph’s head since the beginning. The Cocoon of Finality received this treatment before.
‘Linking two worlds… this is crazy.’
Aleph has the [FATE System] in hand. It was a one-time use item that allowed him to ‘summon’ servants from the ‘Throne of Heroes’.
What he wanted to do was to extend the ‘one-time use’ to ‘permanent use’. As to how, there was still a [Travel Ticket] lyi...

Aleph did not forget to arrange the important things. There was one extra ELF atop his head as he did so.
“Quite clever. The composition of a complex lifeform lies in their concepts. Your so-called ‘Great Dao’ focused on enhancing physical capabilities to the limits, then switched to intangible concepts like mind to further their progress.”
Mobius gave her opinion on the ‘power systems’ held by Aleph.
“The threshold it requires… yes, the tal...

It was a foreign term in Bronya’s mind. All she ever held were guns, knives, and one matryoshka doll. She knew nothing of things normal girls do.
She looked at the lively girl sitting across from her.
Unlike her prior expectations, Kiana bore the definition of a ‘normal girl’. She wasn’t similar to her in any way. The way she stared at her curiously and her subtle movements revealed her youthfulness.
For a moment, Bronya could not help but feel dull insi...

The Wolf of Ursals.
A top-assassin dominating the ‘dark web list’ for a long time. Her missions have a success rate going as high as 90%. So long as there was enough money, ‘she’ would get the job done.
Little was known with her real identity, though there are some who surmised she came from huge forces that span across several cities. Even, there are talks of her whole identity being made up. It was done to create a good ‘story’ for the dark web.

Three days ago, Aleph introduced “Metatron” to them. Although surprising, Senti did not think much of it. Metatron was his Ultimate Skill. She was previously an inorganic ‘thing’; Metatron should not be able to develop feelings for Aleph.
At best, she considered her as an addition to the household.
Metatron’s work efficiency was the icing in the cake. She was able to take care of some problems plaguing the dojo, such as the annual passing of documents, m...

The silence did not last long. Aleph could feel someone else’s hands crawling on his hips. It was evident what Mobius wanted to do.
“I’ll bring you out. It’s not fun if we both are controlling some projections while doing this.”
“Oh? So you want to experience it yourself?”
When Aleph moved his head away from her shoulders, she leaned over Aleph. It caused him to lie down on the bed sideways.
A pair of soft mounds pressed on his right arm. He felt Mobius...

The parallel Earth was calm after a few days of chaos. Order was hastily reorganized by the major hidden forces related to the honkai. Controlling public opinion and gradually revealing the truth behind several ‘natural disasters’ is as easy as drinking tea to them.
As such, the two week class suspension was cut short.
The moment Kiana saw the plush-sized toy’s eyes open, her hands swiftly moved on the controller. She rushed to complete the ‘second level’ in the fighting...

Aleph had been facing Terminus since he arrived into this world. The not-so-subtle manipulations they did, such as the entire debacle with the sixth Herrscher and this Lostbelt-like parallel universe, made him aware of their strength.
He was confident in facing most Aeons. Even if five, no, ten of them gathered together, he was confident to survive. That was how absurd his Infinity was.
Back then, he could fight Voracity on equal foo...

Akivili’s traces had been wiped clean in the ‘past’. Looking at it in the ‘past’ would only fail. That was why Aleph chose to do the opposite; he went and looked at the future.
His Infinity symbolized infinite possibilities. These possibilities mainly occur in the present and future.
Once accompanied by it, Terminus’ influence will disappear. It is the equivalent of holy water to a demon.
Of course, whether or not it ‘fully’ e...

“I have fulfilled your orders. You wished for me to have a real body. Using the sub-skill [Projection] to copy my voice’s origin, sub-skill [Synthesize] to create a physical body, and the position as your Scribe, I have succeeded.”
Metatron’s narrated everything in a flat tone. The words “I” triggered an emotional fluctuation, however.
“Well…”
Aleph simply nodded. He wasn’t dumb. He did recall how many times he...

How do you trigger a solo-que gamer?
Give them shitty teammates.
That was what Aleph did. He manipulated the game’s matchmaking system to first give Silverwolf rubbish teammates—the kind who got to Challenger’s through piloting.
What came next was absolute cinema. Her trash teammates keep dying one after another, causing her to lose six consecutive times. Coupled with his spam emotes and trash talks, one would doubt whether the said gamer is s...

Aleph swiftly moved with the discussion.
“What do you think of the gift I gave you?”
“It’s very incomplete.” She replied with a satisfied tone. “I like it.”
“Figures.”
He considered Herta’s personality when it came to giving the [Throne of Magical Arcana] system. For once, it is one of the most incomplete power systems he had. Everything up to its Demigod stage has been verified; beyond that is nothing.
It is important to note that the said st...

Out of the surviving Flamechasers in this parallel Earth, only Hua hadn’t touched complex information yet. Her progress with the Great Dao became extremely quick, however. It focused on mind first and foremost, a very strong aspect of hers after receiving thousands of years’ worth of memories and experience.
All she had to do is for her energy aspect to reach up to the level of her mind. Add to that the “talent” granted by [World], she was abl...

Aleph’s authority over “time” is unquestionable. He could easily create something similar to an ‘instance space’. All he had to do is to use [Lord of the Mysteries] and recall Earth’s history ten years ago.
At this point, revival via time manipulation is possible.
Such is the power he gained as a God.
‘I used to enter ‘instances’ back then… Is this how a dungeon master feels?’
He was slightly lost. Had he been thrown into this parallel Ea...

Sirin had second thoughts ever since this ‘global cataclysm’ occurred a few hours ago. She blankly stared at the complicated patterns behind Kiana’s back. Despite not physically looking back, her mind tells her it was there.
It was such a strange phenomenon she had to rethink her life choices.
‘Why did God grant humanity with His power?’

The sound of glass shattering took Kurumi’s attention. She stopped in her footsteps as a result.
“Hm. It’s familiar.”
She is currently at the place where the fourth herrscher fell. It was the place where Aleph got ‘marked’.
Kurumi knew most, if not all, of the abnormal events Aleph went through. Being a Spirit from another world helped too.
A vague feeling kept appearing after Aleph’s departure:
She is with him.

The [Red Strings] is a reward granted to Aleph by the Achievement Hunter. Its first appearance showed its ability to “tie” him with other girls who ‘love’ him romantically. It possessed numerous abilities such as location tracking, mind connection, and the likes.
With the upgrades, it evolved to be able to ‘store’ a copy of Aleph’s ability. That, and the improvement in ‘life’ every time he does ‘that’ with them. It also gave him the ability to alter the taste of hi...

There was a girl born out of nowhere. She seemingly came down from the sky, like an alien straight out of a novel.
The girl did not have a name. Her purpose was unknown, and all she could do was observe her surroundings.
It did not take long for her to encounter the most sentient life in this planet:
Humans.
They were nuns of an orphanage. Seeing a young girl alone and abandoned, their first thought was to bring her to their orphanage.
Unsurprisingly, the girl g...

Aleph used [Lord of the Mysteries] to complete a set of tests. When he met Mobius, Su, and Mei, he used his ELF as a channel. Through that, he was able to exert the power of one authority inside the imaginary barrier.
When meeting Vill-V, however, he used the puppet created by her as a channel. It succeeded in one go. It was an item that did not have any direct connection to him.
Meaning to say…
‘As long as I am included in a concept, I can use it as a channel.’

Incredulous.
That was what Vill-V felt when she saw the other version of herself.
‘Those dreams…’
Most, if not all surviving counterparts, became strangely connected to their real versions back on Earth. It caused them to ‘dream’ of memories related to each other. The parallel world Vill-V saw the real Vill-V’s memories and vice versa.
From the other Vill-V’s mental breakdown up to her growing craze with Aleph, her dreams showed nearly everything.
