How long has it been
I do not know
Never mind
Not yet
I see around me
It's like my body exists
Between time
But i know
My body is still standing in time
But using the MaTime as my eyes, it gives me the feeling that I am moving my head
Focusing my thoughts again
I see my belly button
What is my limit?
It's something I've been wondering about recently
The ingot I forged with MaTime when I learned to control time
Now it's a star
A star of time
I don't know how many times after creating things and making notes
Re-forging the ingot by forging it, trying, giving it the meaning of a star
Get it in the right shape and meaning
The MaTime I have at the moment I can't calculate it anymore and I don't care anyway, but it sounds entertaining to know out of curiosity maybe sometime I will make time to find out
But why a star?
Does it generate heat?
Not
Generate time
Yes, but you could have done other things in your core, for a star?
Another voice creeps into my mind
Samuel
An attempt to shape an artificial intelligence that was alive
I mold it with my memories and some slight changes
When I thought she was ready, I gave her the order to learn and try to come back to me.
I take the orb in which all Samuel is stored and throw it into the river of time
After a while it disappeared perhaps in the past or the future of a distant world.
I refocused on looking for the pinnacle
After not knowing how long
When I was forging another remote unit exploring another time stream and learning what it could
A child appears in front of my detained body
-I found you father - a childish voice sounds in my head
But that voice hasn't changed much, just a little added feelings
Samuel
I started talking to him about his trip, I don't know for how long
Maybe because of loneliness it made me happy to talk to another being after so long?
When at the end he transmitted to me all his memories and learnings
I remove all perspectives and feelings so that my mind does not change and I learn everything
A quite entertaining story the truth
After that I give him all my memories and with the added MaTime control I order him to continue learning while forging more remote Units to send to the river of time.
And so we return to the present
... ..
-Well, because a world needs a star to have life it is pure science- I tell him with emotion in my mind
-Yes, but the world is made of MaTime and the planet too, how is that scientific? - Samuel tells me his counterargument that has a lot of veracity
-Let's see, aren't you excited that I have a sun and a planet inside my body? Can't you imagine what will happen if I can create life? - I tell him still not sure he understands my romance
-Not the usual ?, Pinnacle- he says exasperated
-How did you know? - I laugh in my mind
-Ja - sighs samuel
We both know why I chose the inner core to generate mana to create a universe within me, it was all due to a night conversation with my beloved at that time.
Even so, so that the atmosphere would not change, we made a comedy of this, that's why I appreciate Samuel so much, he does understand me.
-But you shouldn't learn to fight better? Don't you see that, even if you have all that power, to protect people you have to fight, no? What if there is no time in the world and your Matime is sealed? - Samuel says solemn
This kid inherited my over exaggeration that's why I like him so much
-Who are you calling child- he says while waving his hands angrily and going to forge something meaningless
-I'm hearing you !, this makes a lot of sense - I hear him scream in my head
By the way, he is connected to my head, when he came from his trip connect his mind to mine, it is as if he had 2 brains, but different personalities, even if I travel to another timeline to be able to talk to him and transmit Matime to him
But he is right in the end if that situation happens as a magician without MaTime, and without Maquinas by my side isolated from all my trump cards, I occupy a way of fighting.
And with this I pick up a plan that Samuel made in his spare time
It's an entertaining plan
Since with this plan I can help all living human beings achieve immortality, it is clear that I will not give this power to just anyone I choose, but I have enough spy units spread out by different time streams on many worlds with humans
I'll leave the job of choosing people to Samuel after all.
-137 - Samuel's voice sounds in my mind pouting
- What thing? - I say trying to see if he did not hear my evil plan of boss exploiting workers without paying them their work
-You said while you thought that how many times have you forged your core, right? Well, it was 137 times according to your memory, that you will forget it is something else- he says whispering since he is concentrating on his work
What good kid doesn't?
But in what I said, after exploring thousands of worlds and thousands of timelines, you notice a pattern.
Monsters
Demons
Gods.
So the question
Where do they come from? Why do they want to destroy humanity? Why do the gods want to observe the suffering of humanity?
I tried to investigate for a while
But as always
It's the same
Stop investigating
Anyway
They pissed me off
And after years it's time for them to suffer the consequences
I laugh wickedly in my head
-So let's play my game in the end? - Samuel says excitedly
I leave the fire burning….
Ah don't run to turn it off
And if you ask Samuel, of course we are going to play your game.
Just saying that I play when this will influence lives is a bit bad, don't you think?
-Hmm maybe, but it's still a game I wasn't the one who gave it that name after all - he says as I shrugged and looked at me hopefully
-Well, have you already processed all the information scanned from the spy units? - I say it calm but this question is the important thing to carry out the plan.
-Yes, I have already ordered all the fighting techniques that have been acquired at this time- he says putting on some secretary glasses, well it is not necessary, but he looks adorable doing it and he thinks it gives meaning to what he says ahahaha.
- Well, I imagine you already had everything prepared, we just had to do the tests, right? - I say while I make my MaTime flow towards the core
It's fun
Almost extraordinary
At my core I have two worlds and a star
In the first world I made, I transported all my belongings or garbage, let's say to that world, I have my library of notes saved taking half of the world as property, the other half is full of my machines, some of war, some spaceships, some useless
Why do I have so many things to fill a world you ask?
The first is that the created world is the size of my world before coming to this world, is the earth clear as it fits in my body? Space magic with a little clear time, after dominating time dominating space becomes a trivial matter
And second, I don't need to focus on my core anymore, Samuel takes care of forging other worlds and stars whenever my Matime reaches the limit.
And third and most important to answer the question
Weather
If anyone has enough time
You can do anything you put your mind to
And I specialize in patience
I may be a little crazy about it, but when I bring my love to my side, I need to be able to resist the entire galaxy against me.
Why do I think the galaxy would go against me?
Well, it is obvious that the "samuel game" will turn the chessboard around the demons and the gods, and the center of everything is us.
And as my father said
You have to be prepared for any eventuality
Even if it is such a fool as time ceases to exist and my MaTime has been sealed
The silver lining is that when this plan is complete
I can go to keep my promises
And what is the plan about, you ask?
-What part of your memory is when you decided to speak only in your head? - Samuel's voice sounds interrupting my epic monologue.
-Just at the beginning when I decided to make a book about my life to show it to Eline when I get to the pinnacle, try to see the beginning of the record again - I tell Samuel angrily for cutting my monologue, but still in what I was
Something that in my world never interested me
But Samuel loved it as he traveled between worlds
Video game
Novels
And if you guess it's clear
Systems
Samuel wants to create a system that will annoy all the strong beings that exist
We will give you the possibility to grow until you reach my own limit only with a system tied to your head and at the same time, impossible to eliminate, impossible to find.
Almost like it's a joke of your imagination
-Aahahahaha - I laugh in my mind, just thinking the face of the god who sent me to this world when he found out that there is such a thing is hilarious
But of course the other world, not this one that I am at this moment, which is my property
I find myself in a world with a great continent that goes around the world, and the sea is almost split in half by the continent, I am precisely in one of the highest mountains that I made in a cabin that Samuel made for camping fun that nostalgia right?
-To have infinite time you don't know how to entertain yourself - he says, sighing softly
-You know why I am like this, when I achieve my goal I will show you what it means to really entertain ahahahahah- I don't know since when it was, but the laugh has not stopped coming out of my mouth, well since my mouth cannot move -Aahahahahahahaha - I laugh at my own joke
-That was not a joke ... - Samuel appears in the cabin
-Well, look at this is your body in the timeline that you died - he says while waving his hand and a sexy and glamorous young man appears
- ... .Can you shut up and enter right? - rolls his eyes while saying it
These young people can no longer appreciate beauty
It is very clear what we will do here , first we will do some tests of different weapons and classes, as well as the levels, when we see that it works, Samuel will start creating titles, missions, other things from his games while he forges my MaTime in his spare time.
And I while looking for the pinnacle with your system
We fill this world with Monsters from my past world so I can kill them at will
Just with my spear
But wait Agito weren't you looking for the pinnacle of magic?
Sure, sure, but nothing says a magician can't fight with a spear that has reached limit mastery.
....
After a time of testing it is time for the final test which will lead me to meet all my objectives at once.
Everything around my body disappears, Samuel moves to the first world.
The river of time close to my body, not all the time that exists in the town, not all the time that exists in this world.
Stop flowing
Time disappears, but at the same time it still exists
Time itself changes
My memories start to fade
The feeling that time flowing has disappeared like a memory in my mind
I remind Samuel to wake me up every time my mind gets close to collapse
In time, time will flow again.
To create a system that travels through the river of time and connects thousands of people to help them grow consumes the time of a whole world.
Cheap for what this baby can do.
Everything starts to disappear
My mind assimilates with the body that I create Samuel
My memories are transmitted to Samuel disappearing one by one
Only remaining my soul
Just as my memories sealed until released
My soul has some memories that are impossible to seal
But the base we need is exactly that
My deepest desires come to the fore
My feelings sealed in my mind by the flow of time and not having a body to express them begin to appear.
...
How long will it have been?
How long have I not heard your voice….
How long and I still do not fulfill my promise….
My senses explode
I start to hear sounds
I start to feel my body moving
My breathing accelerates
My heart races
My eyes open
Tears fall
I don't know why I feel like something is missing from my heart
A pain full of sadness begins to appear in my mind
Why is this happening to me?
Why i keep crying
Where are these feelings from
Why can't I feel alive?
My heart feels empty
My mind falls into an endless abyss
A metal sound sounds like a whisper it will be
I look around me in pain
My eyes widen in shock
I see the fire flow
A man wielding a hammer almost like a work of art
Flows like it's as natural as breathing
-Clank, clank - the sound of hammering begins to increase in my mind
-Clank, clank, clank - as if he never stopped, he continues swinging his hammer, the metal continues to change shape, but without being satisfied his movements are made with more force.
-Clank, CLANK - their hammering that looks like they are going to pierce metal starts to sound like a cacophony
Only the sound of hammering and a man in front of fire and metal with only his hammer facing them as if they were his most feared enemies, burning his body, burning his soul to defeat them, a look full of determination is seen in his eyes, but what? why?
Why?
My mind falls back to the abyss, everything turns black but this time I can see that man hammering fiercely, but his eyes full of determination and that cacophony I no longer see or hear the same.
Why?
Why do you keep trying?
I notice that the endless will in his eyes is filled with endless sadness
I see the metal
It's not changing shape
Thousands, millions, tens of trillions of hammering sounds in the distance
But the glorious and almost inspiring sound above is no longer the same
That hammering
That hammer
That man
Darkness consumes man, only fire and metal sparks are left brought by each hammering
But
Crying can be heard
Those sounds now
They are just despair
That beautiful movement can only be perfected to the limit.
You can try infinitely, but there is still no change
Just a man who refuses to give up just to keep sadness from consuming him
Trying to do an impossible task
The flames disappear
Only the sparks of metal remain
Everything keeps flowing
How long?
The hammering continues
Time is flowing
The speed of the hammering starts to slow
The sound starts to appear every time with a longer wait
Time keeps flowing
How long ago was the last hammering
-CLANK- sounds in the distance with a wave of sparks lighting up the darkness
Almost as if that was his last whisper the sparks disappear in the dark
But something is strange
Despair
The sadness for that hammer
Change
Now he's full of anger
An insatiable anger
An anger directed to the heavens
Directed to destiny
Why can't it be achieved
Who wrote such a thing
who decided such a thing
What if i die
And what if everyone tries to murder me
What if heaven itself tries to stop me
And that?
A hammering sound sounds like the hammer is next to my ear
The anger disappeared this time
This sound is different
This sound
Is full of desire
Time keeps flowing
The interval between hammering seems like an eternity
But the desire keeps growing
Sparks keep growing like a flame
Everything stops
Everything turns dark
...
Just darkness
My mind just full of despair
Not knowing if i'm alive
Only sadness but
But for some reason
The desire for that hammering
It was seeded in my heart as if it were one of those metal sparks falling before disappearing
What is this man trying to forge?
A curiosity pops into my head like it's a forest fire burning all my other thoughts
-CLANK- a hammering sounds behind me
I turn around I see the place that man gave the hammering
His face is full of euphoria
The sound I just heard was filled with uncontrollable desire I feel my whole body shaking
But only that remains, of what you once see was a young man, a decrepit gray-haired old man, his skin cracks his bones thunder his whole body dry like a burned leaf, but his face shows no pain, just a smile, a smile clear ending the man is dead.
I see the man collapsed on the floor avoiding falling on the anvil that I use all this time.
If only I had more time….
Weather
That word echoes in my head
I see the man's hand gripping the hammer, cracked as if it would turn to dust if the wind touches it
I know he's dead
And the metal it hit?
I see the Anvil to see the result of his work in this abyss
Try to create something in the abyss of your mind
Can I do it?
I see metal
Its shape did not change
Still the same
NO
My trembling starts to grow
My eyes don't take their eyes off the metal
I can see it
It's tiny
It's so small that it looks like just a scratch
But the metal that never changed
Has a crack
All the darkness swirls with light like a tornado
....
Everything starts over
My memories disappear again
Only sadness in my mind
My soul trembles with excitement for some reason
I do not know why my body trembles, but I follow the desire with which I woke up to the letter
Look for the pinnacle
...…
Darkness
How do I get out of this darkness?
Almost as if I have experienced it before
I feel in the infinite darkness that surrounds me
And i think
...
Where does this sadness come from?
… ..
Why does my mind say when I grab this stick
-Samuel N ° ????????? - I'm confused
....
At some point the messages in my head disappeared
....
The darkness in which I will always exist surrounds me
Just me swinging a wooden stick as if it were a spear continuously
Over and over again I do it without stopping
Does this make any sense?
... ..
For some reason the stick I grab from the ground feels like it's part of me
Strange
...
The darkness changed
Every time you see I swing the stick forward
Something shines
As if some light tried to enter the darkness….
… ..
Did everything change again?
...
I'm tired
I don't want to continue
I stop swinging the stick
...…
Time to get out of this darkness
… ..
I grab a stick from the random ground
Swinging up like trying to kill a pesky mosquito
The darkness opens
A sky full of a sea of stars appears before my eyes
Memories start to flow in my head
Everything around me is silent
Time passes
Just a man and a wooden stick
After not moving for so long the man whispers
-Samuel-
-Have you finished your trip Father? - another voice sounds in his head
The man is hard to answer
The man finishes remembering
My thoughts align with the present
-If I'm done, the wait is over, it's time to move - I say in a whisper
I remember the times to repeat the cycle of forgetting and recovering my memories after feeling my feelings out of control.
I remember something important
-Why did you stop managing the system? - I ask Samuel with curiosity
After all in the cycle of thousands of half cycles the system we were using stopped appearing in my head.
-Well, apart from the fact that I stop counting, I can no longer measure your limit - Samuel says with an ironic smile
Are you waiting for my limit?
My mind widens
I feel the MaTime that I left Samuel in charge of forging more worlds and stars to create a universe within me
I see
I start to count
I give up when I hit 500 stars
I modify my core from a universe to a universe the size of a marble
I swing my spear
The time that stopped flowing long ago flows again
I see the river of time
I try to see my future ways
But i can't see them
They ceased to exist long ago
My future does not exist
I am the future after all
What is my limit?
That question reappears in my mind
I have not reached my limit
But I think I can keep my promises
A thought appears in my head
Maybe the pinnacle is just the beginning of everything
I laugh by myself
Samuel looks at me like a strange being
Sighs
-Well, we must start now? You're going to keep your promises and I'm throwing the system into the river of time, right? - Says Samuel
Well that is the plan, to turn the system one with time, to continue learning based on the river of time and we can modify it with our magic from time to time.
But it's true it's time to keep my promises
-Let's see I wonder how long it's been since I stopped time, how about we bet how long we've been here? ahahaha- I say as I laugh and reappear over out of my body in the hole in my basement
-Will it matter? Unless time flows here, it flows in other timelines, tsk tsk - Samuel says while clicking his tongue angrily because he knows he will lose the bet
- WHO SAYS I'LL LOSE THE BET! I bet my alcohol reserve was 100 million years! - He says indignant at my comments
-Aahahahaha, do not exaggerate minimum we were 1000 years or 500 years you do not know about numbers, see my memories and you will know what I say - I say showing my title of scientist
-Well let's check who is right before we start to fight, I'll bet to teach you how to forge well I see that you forge very bad boy ahahaha -
I move my hand and the body in which I am meets the one that is standing in time they unite
Time begins to return
The clock begins to calculate the time
A whirlpool of time rises from my body as the center
All in silence samuel watches the clock carefully
Happy first
Then euphoric maybe I win the bet
Then he stays still
Then his eyes widen in shock
Tears begin to flow from his eyes
Curiosity fills me, but I control time to correctly return to time flow
Time goes by
Everything stops the MaTime tornado calms down
Time flows again, but I stop it again so that there are no variables in my return
I see the clock
My mind stops
I'm incredulous
Maybe the clock broke
I see well again he says
2,312,354 years
