Six months had passed since Elias integrated the Perpetual Horizon Core into his being. Six months of relentless cultivation, of diving deeper into the mysteries of Quantum Law than any being before him had dared to venture. Six months of his consciousness operating at speeds that made normal time flow feel like geological epochs.
The unlimited energy from the void-tide changed everything. Previously, his Quantum Law comprehension had been limited not by understanding, but by the sheer energy cost of processing quantum mechanics at cosmic scales. The calculations required to truly grasp probability across infinite states, to hold superpositions in his mind without collapse, to perceive branching timelines—all of it demanded power that his old core simply couldn't sustain.
But now? Now he could think at scales that would have burned out other multiversal beings instantly.
