The Limit System And The Arcanum Order

"To see the edge of the world is to stand at the border of God."

The Limit System is not divine, demonic, or magical — it is structural.

It governs the boundaries that make reality exist.

Everything — space, time, perception, energy — has a limit. Rin's soul, fractured by death and reassembled by infinity, can see, measure, and rewrite those limits.

The System evolves through Layers, each granting him control over a deeper rule of existence.

🌀 Limit LayersLayer 1: Perception Limit

Enhances all five senses to absolute awareness.

Rin perceives energy, distance, emotion, and intent — even before they happen.

Time appears to "slow" because his mind moves faster than the world.

Weakness: Overexposure causes mental fragmentation (seeing too much breaks the brain).

"To perceive infinity is to feel everything — even pain that isn't yours."

Layer 2: Spatial Limit

The power to define distance itself.

Can freeze motion, create invisible barriers, distort space, or fold it for instant travel.

Overuse causes the world's geometry to rebel — structures collapse, reality 'warps.'

Symbol: The Circle of Mirrors.

"Between two points lies infinity. I decide what that infinity means."

Layer 3: Energy Limit

Rin learns to compress and expand energy.

Blue Force (attraction) and Red Force (repulsion) emerge naturally.

Combining both creates Hollow Collapse — a phenomenon that deletes matter without explosion or trace.

Weakness: Too much compression turns his body into a conduit of unstable infinity — risking self-erasure.

"Collapse isn't destruction. It's perfection returning to zero."

Layer 4: Reality Limit

Control over laws themselves — gravity, causality, even perception of truth.

Reality bends where he stands.

But every act of bending draws the world's Correction Forces — entities born to eliminate anomalies.

"The more real I become, the less real everything else is."

Layer 5: Null Limit (God Domain)

True Infinity. No time. No space. Only will.

Rin becomes the center of existence, rewriting the script of the world temporarily.

But the cost: existence rewrites him back. Each use erases part of his humanity — memories, emotions, or identity.

"To be infinite is to vanish. Because infinity has no self."

💠 The Infinite Mirror (System Interface)

The Limit System manifests as a mirror inside Rin's mind, reflecting countless versions of himself — each one from a different possibility.

He can commune with these reflections for insight, knowledge, or even temporary boosts — but each reflection carries madness from its own world.

Every reflection whispers:

"We all broke our worlds differently. How will you break yours?"

🔮 2. The World's Magic System — The Arcanum Order

While Rin's power breaks limits, the people of this world use a structured, divine system called The Arcanum — a hierarchy of magic granted by gods and spirits.

🔹 Mana:

Life energy that flows through everything — air, stone, blood.

Every being possesses a Core, which stores their mana and defines what element or concept they can control.

Mana is categorized by Essence Colors (a reflection of soul resonance):

Red – Flame, fury, motion.

Blue – Water, perception, calm.

Green – Growth, nature, healing.

Silver – Illusion, mind, spirit.

Gold – Light, holiness, order.

Black – Shadow, entropy, death.

Each person awakens their affinity at birth, forming Runic Circles within their mana core.

🔹 The Arcanum Circles:

The world's mages advance through Seven Circles — each carved into their soul through training or divine blessing.

Each Circle deepens their spellcraft and brings them closer to godhood.

Circle Title Power Scope I Initiate Basic element control II Adept Shaping and summoning III Scholar Fusion spells, minor domain access IV Archmage Territory creation V Saint Reality-binding incantations VI Seraph Blessing manipulation VII Divinity Half-godhood — the strongest mortals

The Church of Order regulates Arcanum usage, marking every mage with divine seals — which is why Rin, who wields something outside the divine, is considered an Anomaly.

🌍 World Structure:

Eryndor – Capital of Dawn. City of priests and scholars.

Kaelor – The industrial fortress city in the north, where machines and mana blend.

Solmere – Floating city built above an ocean storm, ruled by the Stormblood family.

Ashveil – Cursed wasteland city beneath a sleeping volcano. Mana burns the ground red.

The Sanctum of Gods – The unreachable heart of the world, where the divinities dwell in silence.

Each city prays to a different god — but all serve under the Order of the Seven Lights, the divine authority.
