The worlds grew quiet.
Not because the pain had vanished…
but because the screaming had grown tired.
Cities were rebuilt.
The sky regained its color.
The winds passed again without carrying prophecy or threat.
Nir was speaking with Beath at the edge of the new village.
Soft laughter.
A simple life.
And Kim…
was not there.
---
Atop the Mountain
He sat alone on a high summit overlooking everything.
No throne.
No creatures beside him.
No bending of air around him.
Just a man…
looking at the horizon.
The sun was setting slowly.
A calm orange hue washing over the world.
Kim closed his eyes.
The system appeared.
But not as heavy, terrifying text.
Rather as a silent, stable interface.
Final Sovereignty System
Status: Stable
User: Outside the scope of Fate
Cosmic Independence Ratio: Immeasurable
His skill list appeared.
They were no longer mere tools of killing.
But redefined concepts.
Breath of Nothingness
No longer just a blade of erasure.
Now capable of "severing" any cosmic link without destroying the entity.
Origin Liberation
Nullifies any imposed path upon reality within his sphere of influence.
Decree of Eternal Severance
Separates a concept from its bearer without collapsing the world.
Nullification Verdict
Not erasure…
but the termination of something's legitimacy to exist.
Then—
A new skill appeared.
One he had not yet used.
Only a single line.
Seed of Possibility
Description:
The ability to create a path that has never existed in any prior narrative.
Usage: Unlimited.
Cost: Unknown.
Kim slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at his hand.
It no longer trembled.
No longer burned.
No longer felt empty.
It was… calm.
He whispered to himself:
"I am no longer running from fate…"
He looked at the sky.
The stars no longer drew hidden lines.
"Nor am I chasing it."
He extended his hand toward the horizon.
He did something very simple.
He activated Seed of Possibility.
Not for war.
Not for power.
But—
to create a small possibility.
In a distant village…
a child who was on the verge of dying from a rare illness—
Suddenly…
his breathing improved.
No light.
No announcement.
No explosion.
Kim lowered his hand.
The system recorded:
New path created.
Source: User.
Intervention not linked to any fate.
A faint smile touched his lips.
"So… I can create… without destroying."
The wind passed quietly around him.
It did not bow.
It did not tremble.
It simply touched him.
Kim looked at the final sunset of that day.
And whispered:
"This time…"
He paused for a moment.
Then continued:
"I will live… without a written end."
The sun slowly faded.
A man sitting atop a mountain.
A quiet world beneath him.
A silent system within him.
And a future…
No one knows.
Not even him.
