Chapter 127: 

Chronolux - The Temporal Nexus

Noboru's eyes opened.

It was done.

He had done it.

He had completed his goal.

He had made it so his home world had Omni Energy

That his home world Gained Dimensium

That everything was the how it was supposed to be.

That the history played out as it should have.

That the two boundless being clashed

That his past life Mother Lucy Morningstar and disgrace of a Father Yahweh clashed

That the Blessed Age started in his home world

That Everything how it was supposed to be.

Noboru knew he wouldn't have been erased if he hadn't ddone anything after all his grandpa had told him eveyrthing works.

Flashback

A 4 year old Noboru sat before his grandpa with a smile on his face eager to hear a story from his Grandpa's experiences in other dimensions.

"Ah my boy, Today i will be telling you about a world where there no magic, chakra, ki or superpowers. " Haruki said.

"Aww but grandpa thats boring i want to hear how you defeated a dragon or leviathan maybe underwater dragon." Noboru said pouting.

Haruki sighed as he flicked his little grandsons head.

"Ow Grandpa that hurt." Noboru said putting a hand on his head.

"Learning is more important then tales of hubris my boy. Now listen this theory i learnt in a world that runs of science not superpower was really advanced and true. This world has no powers they live of science yet in some aspect they are more advanced then the phoenix kingdom.

"Really grandpa i doubt anyone is more advanced then us mommy and daddy make our kingdom the strongest." Noboru says pumping his lit fist in the air.

"Well they are anyways they had this theory called modal realism it applies to our existence that all possible and impossible worlds exist whether they are impossible or possible. for example for every thought or action you have there worlds for every other thought or action you have taken. Let says you say 1 + 1 = 3 in this universe that is false does not there could exist in another universe world dimension where that is true. What i am trying to say due to the paradoxical nature of Omni Energy everything that can be considered real, whether rooted in possibility or impossibility, exists in some form. No matter what" Haruki said.

"Okay so every thought and action i take no matter how impossible there exist a timeline or universe where i did that is what you are saying." Noboru said confused.

"Not just what you thought or did but all possible and impossible outcomes exist." Haruki clarified.

"But Grandpa this is boring can we talk about Omni Energy." Noboru begged as Haruki sighed Noboru was clever but he was clearly getting confused at such topics maybe a in a year or two he can grasp it but he doesn't know if he will be alive with how the kingdom was turning against him to teach that was why he was trying to cram everything he knew into his favourite grand child.

"Fine let me tell you about how i took down a Manticore with a..."

Flashback end

Noboru face turned to that of a frown remembering his dead grandfather that was killed by the kingdom but he need to push that down because he was home. Well not home per say but back to Sky's world.

And that meant—no more Yahweh and his bullshit for some time hopefully.

No more Heaven's tyranny, no more divine paranoia, no more battles waged by a narcissistic false god who feared what he could not control.

Oh wait there was still Hikari never mind that

But in the end this was his place. His time.

And he had returned.

A deep breath filled his lungs as his mind caught up with reality. Where was he?

The familiar energy of Chronolux hummed around him. The very air vibrated with the resonance of the Temporal Nexus, an eternal melody of time itself flowing in cascading waves beyond human perception.

Before him, he saw it.

The Altar of the Void.

The very place where the four kingdom relics that when imbued with the cosmic energies of Etheris will open the void and free her. 

The sacred heart of Chronolux—the center of all time, the place where the flow of existence itself converged and diverged in infinite spirals.

The center of Chronolux.

Noboru's gaze lifted, taking in the unfathomable grandeur of where he now stood.

This place… it is beyond even Terravale.

Chronolux was not bound by logic, by mortality, or by the laws of the world as he once knew them.

He stood within the Temporal Nexus, a structure that did not just surpass Aeritha, Ignarok, Aquora, and Terravale—it shattered the very foundations of Etheris itself a place he had not been to wgich is a bummer he would have lived to go there but there was no need for the combat trial for him to go there .

Here, time was not linear. It did not move forward or backward.

It was an uncountable cascade of moments, weaving realities within realities.

Noboru's mind struggled to comprehend it, his senses overwhelmed by the infinite fractals of existence spiraling outward into eternity.

There was no hierarchy here—no sense of higher or lower—because such concepts were meaningless in the presence of true eternity.

This was Chronolux, the place where time was not measured, but composed. A symphony of moments, each note playing in harmony with the cosmic winds of the Infinite Temporal Spiral.

It was like standing inside the heartbeat of reality itself.

And yet—despite its endless majesty, despite the sheer cosmic weight of where he stood…

Noboru felt nothing.

Not awe. Not reverence.

Just focus.

Because right now, he had a decision to make.

Two Paths – One Decision

Complete the Combat Trial.

Or free his past life Yami, the Void Queen.

The trial was simple. Find Hikari, defeat him, complete the test of strength, and stop him from freeing Yami who will force the void to expand and expand until it consumes everything.

It was the logical choice.

Hikari was a threat. A Archangel whose arrogance knew no limits, a man who believed himself the sole inheritor he should be Yahweh divine enforcer sent to kill him and that he was Yahweh perfect child. Defeating him would prove—without a shadow of doubt—that Yahweh was nothing.

And yet…

His crimson eyes flickered.

Yami.

The Void Queen. His concubine from his past life.

The one who had loved him, the one who had been trapped in Yahweh's prison, suffering for countless eons.

All to be used against him

He had promised her.

"I won't kill you as my mission of completing the combat trial suggests."

"I will free you."

She was innocent, just as Noboru himself had been innocent from Phoenix Kingdoms acusations.

And in those fleeting moments he had with her—he had loved her too.

Like Ayame.

Like the others he had left behind.

Noboru clenched his fists.

His mind raced.

Would he take the path of selfishness completing this story but leaving Yami to suffer?

Or would he choose to keep his promise?

His promise to the woman who had been left behind—to the one who was waiting for him in the void, locked away, suffering every moment of her existence because he had not yet saved her?

A slow breath left his lips.

It was not even a question.

He was not teleporting Sky, Layla, Yumeko, or the Fire General Kai here.

As they hated his concubine because the void was their enemy or in sky case personal reason because the void had killed his mother. In fire general case he wouldn't allow Ignarock relic to be used to free her cause that was a national treasure

There was no hesitation.

Because his path was clear.

He was going to free Yami.

Even if it meant starting a war with Yahweh all over again by screwing his plan.

Even if it meant losing his friends he made here.

Even if it meant defying the Combat Trial itself.

Because unlike Yahweh—unlike the gods, the Chikara family, the tyrants who believed strength and power alone defined destiny—

Noboru Chikara was not a man who broke his promises.

And this promise would be kept.

No matter what it cost.
