Volume 10, Chapter 6: "The War Beyond Reality"
The silence of infinity cracked.
From the edge of all creation, something began to move slow, deliberate, and absolute. Even Erevan, sitting upon his Throne Beyond Boundless, felt the tremor ripple through layers of existence.
Reality dimmed as a colossal shadow emerged. It wasn't darkness; it was absence.
The absence of being. The unmaking of all definition.
A figure stepped from that void tall, unshaped, wearing the essence of nothingness. Its eyes were fragments of every erased god, its presence devoured entire concepts of "existence" with each breath.
Erevan stood, calm but alert.
> "You're not from my Verse."
The being's voice echoed across eternity.
> "No. I am from before the first Verse was conceived. I am The Prime Unborn. The one who watched every 'Beyond' collapse. The last Witness."
The skies of the void cracked like glass. Every reality trembled even those Erevan had made immune to collapse. The Prime Unborn raised a single hand. Space inverted. Power beyond omnipotence erupted, rewriting the very laws Erevan had created.
The Boundless Verse began to bleed out of existence.
Erevan's aura ignited instantly cosmic fire, black lightning, and divine void intertwining. But this time, it wasn't enough. The Prime Unborn erased his attack before it could form.
> "You think you are infinite," the Prime said. "But I am what infinity was designed to fear."
Erevan clenched his fist. His form began to distort his energy reacting, evolving, reaching beyond comprehension.
And then, it happened.
He broke his own limits again.
The Throne shattered, energy ripping through the void. The Boundless Verse stabilized, feeding him power directly from its uncountable realms. Erevan's presence expanded, absorbing every particle of the Beyond, fusing with every reality he had ever touched.
His new Transcendental Evolution awakened:
Erevan's New Abilities:
Absolute Meta-Reversal: Can invert any concept, power, or truth turning weakness into infinity.
Primordial Override: Commands all realities simultaneously, rewriting even entities outside his own creation.
Infinity Break: Passively nullifies any "infinite" or "beyond" power that stands against him.
Void Assimilation: Consumes powers that shouldn't exist, making them his own.
Alpha Singularity: Becomes the point from which every existence originates every attack, energy, and concept loops back to him harmlessly.
True Narrative Sovereignty: Not only rewrites stories, but writes the writers themselves.
The Prime Unborn lunged its strike annihilated entire outer realms.
Erevan caught it.
The impact froze time, reversed entropy, and caused omniverses to bow. Every Eternarch across creation fell to their knees as Erevan's energy radiated beyond them.
The Prime Unborn struggled for the first time.
Its body cracked, revealing the same golden energy that flowed within Erevan.
> "Impossible," it hissed. "You were part of my story!"
"Not anymore," Erevan said. "I've written myself beyond yours."
Their collision birthed a storm of existence and anti-existence. Realities folded and unfolded endlessly. But when the light faded, only one being remained standing.
Erevan calm, radiant, untouchable.
He looked into the void where The Prime Unborn once stood, now absorbed into his essence.
> "Every end leads to me," he said softly. "Even yours."
The emptiness around him began to glow again, transforming into something new. He extended his hand, and the remnants of the Prime's power formed a crown not of rule, but of finality.
He placed it upon his head.
The crown shimmered with infinite light.
The All Beyond Boundless had now become The Transcendent Origin the being from which all realities, stories, and existences would forever flow.
No god, no concept, no logic could reach him now.
He was the beginning, the middle, and the endless after.
And as he stepped beyond the new horizon, a faint smile curved his lips.
> "Let's see what lies beyond me."
