The world where Kayden was was very ssy; in fact, it was not even truly a world. It was similar to nothing and at the sa ti similar to everything. There were all the laws and everything Kayden could rember existing at a normal point in space, but at the sa ti there was also nothing. It was simply complete chaos.
The voice that appeared to Kayden seed to co from all sides; it seed to co from inside him, from his own soul. The problem was that this was a ss; he did not know what was happening and was not even capable of identifying anything. He squeezed out his word with a wave of soul in all directions.
"Hello." A single simple word of greeting; at that mont, that was all he was capable of doing. It seed like sothing simple, but it was similar to throwing a stone at a huge wall of branches; the stone would travel a good distance but would sohow get lost in the middle of it.
"You truly are a different kind of mage," the voice comnted and began to introduce itself. "I am the librarian." Kayden imdiately recognized the being that stood before him.
The librarian was one of the oldest gods that had ever existed, a being who was capable of crossing existences and eras, writing everything down in a book known as the Record. This god was insane; he had been in this world for almost the sa amount of ti as the celestials. His book actually possessed complete information about them, but access to it was difficult.
It was impossible to obtain a copy of the Record without having the librarian’s authorization. Each copy was given directly to a mage by him. Furthermore, one’s strength was judged in relation to one’s knowledge; the greater it was, the more pages you would be able to read.
"It is a pleasure to et you, Mr. Librarian." Kayden was extrely respectful. A single sentence like that required half of his strength to be generated; this environnt was completely insane. Besides him, another person also gave their greetings.
"It is a pleasure to see you again, god 24r302d@44." Jarvis directly released the librarian’s divine na into the environnt. Kayden was incapable of comprehending it; he could only understand the ssage it carried, and it was nothing more than knowledge, simple and pure.
"So this is where you were lost, Jarvis." In the next second, Kayden lost his connection with the god. He was simply removed from his soul without even being able to perform a single movent. "You will be judged for your cris against the celestial library."
Kayden took a few seconds and was able to see the traces of what had been done. It was so fast that it took him ti to react, but his talent was at its peak again. After a few seconds, he saw the traces, the details; Jarvis was sucked away in a very simple manner.
He did not belong to Kayden’s soul. This allowed the librarian to extract him without even touching Kayden’s own soul. It was absurd precision, but it was sothing that could be done. Kayden quickly morized the situation and absorbed the knowledge to be studied later; this would greatly change certain details of his soul.
"Kayden Heart, your story is very ancient, a mage who was forgotten by ti," the librarian began. "I want to trade your story for a copy of the Record." Kayden had been waiting for this opportunity for a very long ti.
"I accept this deal, but... why forgotten son of God?" The librarian responded briefly and left Kayden lost in thought.
"Cross the lost space between worlds and I will listen to your story. As for that title... Thoth calls you that." Kayden was left alone with his thoughts.
In seconds, he lost Jarvis’s soul, which had been with him for a very long ti. Not only that, but a certain hole was left in his soul that at the sa ti was not a hole. Kayden could not say exactly what it was, but it would be resolved in the future. First, he needed to learn as much as possible in that place.
Ti passed quickly. Kayden was standing still and at the sa ti walking. He could not say whether he was moving at high speed or not. Ti only existed in his mind in that place; ti was incapable of passing in reality, the laws simply could not complete themselves.
His focus was still his soul. He was studying how Jarvis had been removed from him so easily. Kayden knew that souls were unique; even twin souls were not perfectly similar, they possessed small differences. It was those small differences that made Kayden understand that separating his soul from Athena’s was the answer to his doubts.
Those differences were minuscule, but they would make him incapable of being completely unique; they would make it so that he would not be one hundred percent Kayden. A small part would never be him, a small part would always belong to soone else.
Jarvis’s soul was completely removed from Kayden’s in a single movent. That movent was very simple; the librarian released a small wave of soul and it resonated in both souls. Each of them released a different tuning, which allowed him to millitrically extract Jarvis.
Kayden began to resonate his soul like a condemned man, as if his entire life was only that. He did nothing beyond it. Ti had no aning, because it did not even exist, but... in the correct world, it would have been millions of years of Kayden rely resonating his soul with the laws.
This trick that Kayden learned was, in truth, a divine-level technique, sothing that few gods would be capable of doing throughout their entire lives. Probably only those at the divine peak would be able to accomplish sothing like this, yet Kayden learned it in just a few seconds.
His talent was absurd. His soul had only returned to the sa level as before after an infinite amount of ti working on it, but at that mont Kayden was breaking that limit. Resonating his soul opened a new world to him, sothing Kayden had never been able to do before.
He was becoming capable of understanding the universe around him. He could resonate his soul across a long distance and feel everything resonating back, but... the most important thing was the response of the laws, how the universe behaved in its smallest details. Kayden had always been a mage who imposed himself.
The monarch, that was his path. He converted the universe to his will; it had always been like that. Kayden commanded, and the universe obeyed his will absolutely. He was a mage opening the river so he could walk over the land, but at that mont, he was learning to walk over the river.
