The mocking expression on Knowledge Daniel's face froze.
His brain began to work furiously, attempting to understand the meaning behind the words Daniel had just spoken.
Speed… Mass…
These two concepts, which were only loosely connected in his previous knowledge system, now seemed bound together by an ironclad law he could not comprehend in this unfamiliar universe.
He suddenly looked down at his own body.
Wait… His body was indeed becoming heavier!
"No… This can't be!"
"What about conservation of mass? What about conservation of energy? How can the force of your punch create such a massive amount of mass out of nothing?!"
For the first time, Knowledge Daniel let out a scream of terror.
The knowledge he had once prided himself on had turned into the biggest joke of all.
Daniel calmly watched him, as if watching a program teetering on the brink of collapse.
"So, your cognition was wrong."
"You thought my punch was just a simple physical attack?"
"I simply gave you an initial velocity. A trigger."
"The true force that kills you is the rule of this world."
Knowledge Daniel felt his body grow heavier, to the point where even his thoughts began to slow.
His existence was being compressed by an unimaginable mass, twisting and distorting.
The space around him began to warp as his terrifying mass bent reality itself.
At this moment, Knowledge Daniel possessed immense power—but he could do nothing in the face of the completely unfamiliar rules. His divine power couldn't exert any effect.
"Stop! Stop!" he cried out desperately.
He struggled, trying to break free from this state, but no matter how hard he tried, it was in vain.
His speed showed no sign of slowing; on the contrary, the inertia kept it constant.
And his mass continued to increase exponentially.
One time.
Ten times.
A hundred times...
Soon, his mass surpassed that of a nearby planet.
Then it exceeded that of a star.
He felt his existence being compressed into an infinitesimally small point.
The "knowledge" and "concepts" that made up his body shattered, torn apart, and crushed into that singularity.
"I… I won't accept this!"
In his final moments, as his consciousness was completely overwhelmed, Knowledge Daniel let out a last, desperate roar.
His vision began to distort. Everything turned red, then fell into ultimate darkness.
Daniel watched as the once invincible God of Knowledge collapsed into a black hole in front of him, his expression unchanged.
He turned away from the disintegrating scene and looked toward the distant Earth.
He knew it was over.
The most challenging Knowledge Daniel, the one who had caused so much turmoil, had finally met his end in a way he could never comprehend.
Winterhold Castle.
A full year had passed since Daniel participated in the Awakening Ceremony.
Now, the Land of Origin had been arranged by Daniel in a completely new Time River.
The previous Time River had been severely damaged due to the battle between him and Knowledge Daniel.
Of course, with Daniel's power, he could have repaired the Time River.
But he chose not to.
Instead, he created a completely new Time River.
The reason? He wanted to offer everyone a new path in life.
What had happened in the past was over.
There was no need to linger on it.
In this new Time River, Daniel had even revived Earth in its entirety.
Naturally, the time node chosen was the one when Daniel first crossed into this world. This allowed him to continue enjoying the time with his parents.
Over the course of the past year, Daniel had decided to deconstruct [Infinity].
This allowed those human awakeners who had sacrificed themselves to become god cores to be brought back to life.
Under Daniel's guidance, the human race had experienced unprecedented growth.
But Daniel did not personally take action in all of this. He entrusted the work to the right individuals.
Although he had lost [Infinity], his power had once again fallen to the god-tier. However, the invaluable experiences from the previous year had given Daniel new insights.
In just a year, he had advanced to the inner god tier.
Additionally, because Daniel had created this new Time River, the other Daniels from different worldlines now had a completely different choice to make.
These alternate Daniels no longer needed to continue the final battle. Instead, they chose to bring their loved ones into this new Time River.
As for the so-called forbidden lands within Backworld, Daniel had wiped them all away.
He would not allow such hidden dangers to remain.
After tying up all loose ends, Daniel then chose to deconstruct [Infinity Possibility], severing his connection with the other worldlines.
For him now, there was no desire to dominate every worldline.
It was simply too boring.
Besides, Daniel believed that what he had at this moment was already perfect.
So…
This was enough.
Just then, Isabella and Elizabeth, the two sisters, suddenly appeared by Daniel's side.
They each wrapped their arms around Daniel's and pulled him toward the shopping district of Winterhold Castle.
"Crossbridge! You're too sly! You promised to go shopping with us, and now you're running off at the crucial moment!"
"That's right! You said you'd accompany us, and now you're skipping out on us!"
Faced with their barrage of complaints, Daniel felt a sudden headache.
Just as he was about to respond, an excellent excuse came to mind.
He quickly disappeared from their grasp with a swift motion.
"Wait! Did you forget something?"
"Today's a very important day! There's something a thousand times more important than shopping!"
"That's right! The Gods' Feast! I think our old friends must have been waiting impatiently by now!"
Without giving Isabella or Elizabeth a chance to speak, Daniel disappeared in an instant.
Watching Daniel flee so quickly, Isabella pouted in frustration.
"This guy… Always like this!"
"Well, the Gods' Feast is starting. Let's go find him!"
Elizabeth comforted her sister, then easily opened a portal.
The next moment, their figures appeared on a floating island.
Countless flowers bloomed across the island, and a grand feast filled with delicious food and wine was laid out at every corner.
However, after scanning the area, they did not spot Daniel.
Instead, they noticed Luke, Luna, and the others, who seemed to be searching for someone.
"Where is Crossbridge? He promised to be here with us!"
"Let's go look for him!"
Meanwhile, in the basement of the floating castle,
Daniel raised his glass and clinked it lightly with Faer.
"Faer, you don't understand. Having too many women chasing you can actually be a hassle, seriously!"
"I really envy you… being a 'single dog'!"
