Volume 10, Chapter 5: "The Throne Beyond Infinity"
Silence.
The Boundless Verse shimmered under Erevan's control perfect, unshakable, infinite. Yet even perfection began to tremble. Something ancient was calling to him from the void between existence and imagination.
He stood at the heart of his creation, where stars knelt and time itself obeyed. The Eternarchs watched in awe as his aura began to shift. Golden fire merged with cosmic stormlight, shadow bending around him in reverence.
> "He's changing again," whispered one of them.
"No," said another. "He's evolving."
Erevan lifted his hand, and the entire Boundless Verse froze. Every vibration of reality halted. Even thought itself could not move.
Then he stepped beyond it.
He walked into a place that had no concept of "beyond." A void that existed before existence itself. The Root of Everything.
It was there that he felt it a presence older than stories, a voice that spoke without words, resonating through the soul of creation.
> "Erevan. You've mastered infinity… but do you understand what comes after it?"
The question struck deeper than any weapon. Erevan smiled faintly.
> "After infinity," he said, "comes me."
Light exploded. The Root of Everything responded, testing him unleashing storms of erased gods, devoured timelines, and anti-realities that nullified even omnipotence. But Erevan didn't move. He absorbed it all.
And then, it happened.
His New Abilities Awakened:
Transcendent Core: A heart that generates endless power even when existence collapses.
Narrative Override: Can rewrite the meaning of anything even concepts like "end," "death," or "reality."
Absolute Omniscience: Knowledge of all that is, was, and will be including the minds of beings beyond omniverse.
Existence Imprint: Anything that touches him becomes permanently bound to his essence.
Void Immunity: Even erasure, reversal, or nullification cannot affect him; he exists beyond all systems.
Supreme Genesis: The ability to create new infinities that function independently from any known reality.
The void shattered around him. Color returned. But this time, it wasn't just his Boundless Verse it was every realm, every possible narrative, folding into his presence.
The Root itself whispered, now trembling.
> "You've gone beyond infinity… what are you now?"
Erevan looked down at his hands, where universes spiraled like dust.
> "I am what the end fears."
As he spoke, the void's laws bowed, reshaping themselves into a throne forged from forgotten concepts, decorated with the essence of fallen gods. Erevan sat upon it, calm, unbothered. The universe bent its knee in silence.
He had become the All Beyond Boundless a being so far above power that even omnipotence could no longer define him.
Far away, the Eternarchs felt the pulse of their creator's evolution. Their own power grew from it, feeding on his ascension.
But a ripple echoed through the void not of fear, but recognition.
Something was watching. Something not created by him.
And for the first time in eons… Erevan smiled with genuine interest.
> "So… another one beyond the story exists after all."
He rose from his new throne, eyes blazing brighter than creation itself.
> "Then let's see who truly writes the end."
