Chapter 4931: Three II

Inside of him, he felt his Organ of Civilization quiver with strain that bordered on rupture. An instant later, he felt the emergence of 10 Absolute Everythings and two Infinite Everythings, resources that his overflowing Harvest had produced from sheer excess.

And as soon as they emerged, they disappeared into his existence, absorbed by foundations that were desperately trying to accommodate what was being poured into them.

Prompts bloomed with urgency that pressed against his awareness.

|Critical Threshold Reached|

|The Derivative Civilizations of Infinite Undifferentiated Fate and Infinite Hunger are seeking permission for Absolute. They Hunger. They burn with Undifferentiation. The harvest they have received exceeds their capacity to remain at Half-Step classification. They must advance or they must be released. There is no third option.|

...!

Noah was currently in a unique state of mind.

He felt his vibrant, immense waves of Infinity that represented his main Civilization. His Mana. His First Tongue! And orbiting around it at this moment were two huge bubbles that sought to pop. The bubbles of Infinite Undifferentiated Fate and Infinite Hunger wanted to take the step to become Absolutes as they’d taken in far too much harvest to remain at the level they were at.

But his ongoing foundation and Civilization of THE First Tongue still felt like it could take on so much more.

He inherently felt like if any part of him became an Absolute, his main Civilization would quietly and quickly follow afterward. He wouldn’t be able to stop it. Because the moment any part of him became an Absolute, the change would be so grand that the interior of his existence would become filled with that glorious Immensity, and his main Civilization would truly follow right after.

So how exactly was he to rectify this?

In his unique state of mind, his mouth began to move as he released words he’d heard a little while ago from an echo.

"When the Youngest walks where the Oldest slumber, Existence shall tremble and the Weave shall fray. He who holds Infinity in mortal palms shall stand at the crossroads where all rivers end..."

"The Paradox shall fall before the Paradox rises. The father consumed by the son, the son consumed by the purpose, the purpose consumed by the question that birthed all questions. Three collapses for the price of one, and in the third collapse, the door shall crack."

"The Shroud of Endless Blue shall fall upon Observable Existence. It shall be both salvation and damnation, both the key and the lock, both the bridge and the chasm. Under its weight, the doors of the Scales shall open or the doors of the Scales shall shatter. There is no third path. There is no middle ground. There is only the choice that is not a choice."

...!

He recited these words out loud and silently at the same time as he wondered which of them had fully come to pass and which of them were still coming in the future.

The theme of three seemed prevalent.

At this time, in his unique state where he was absorbing the tremendous immense amount of elevated harvest, where parts of him wished to take a step to become Absolutes...

He gave a simple command at this moment.

"Divide."

BOOM!

At the moment he said these words, terrifying blue-gold cracks permeated across his body.

Two cracks vertically bisected his form, running from crown to feet with precision that spoke of authority rather than destruction. In the next moment, an influx of Infinities erupted outward as if something was being split apart and sundered, light pouring from the fractures with intensity that painted THE Agora in shades of blue and gold that overwhelmed everything else.

In the span of a nanosecond, the sundering was completed.

The main half at the center displayed a figure of Noah shining with extremely pure and beautiful blue-gold brilliance of Mana. THE First Tongue burned around this body with authority that had been refined through separation, purified through division, elevated through the removal of elements that had been diluting its singular focus.

And on either side of him...

Bodies that looked exactly like him stood with presence that matched his own.

One was surrounded by an endless light of golden Infinite Undifferentiated Fate, the authority of dissolution and entropy given form, the power that returned all things to their proto-state. This Noah burned with light that sought to unmake everything it touched, that viewed definition as a disease to be cured through return to formlessness.

The other was surrounded by a crimson brilliance of Infinite Hunger, the authority of consumption and accumulation given shape, the power that devoured and absorbed and made all things part of itself. This Noah blazed with light that wanted to consume everything it perceived, that viewed separation as an obstacle to be overcome through integration.

The central Noah looked at the other two with an extremely glorious and imperious gaze.

"Now you may proceed to attain Absolute. My foundation... is not yet complete."

BOOM!

As odd as it was, he was basically talking to himself.

And there was no delay.

The two bodies that had been separated from him erupted with terrifying brilliance and horrifying aura as they sought to attain the Depth that stood higher than Fundamental. Absolute!

Even though he didn’t grasp it with his main Civilization, he’d separated himself into three as he would be experiencing the glimmer of Absolute with another part of himself entirely!

Prompts bloomed.

|Unprecedented Action Taken|

|You have divided your existence into three separate bodies, each one carrying a distinct Civilization. Your main body retains THE First Tongue in its purest form. Your secondary bodies carry Infinite Undifferentiated Fate and Infinite Hunger respectively. This division has made your Civilization of Mana, your Civilization of THE First Tongue, even purer. It now exists as the sole Civilization within your main existence.|

|Assessment: Your foundation can now advance even further, especially as it receives reinforcement from your other Selves that are grasping Absolute at this moment. The grander the heights your other bodies achieve with their Civilizations of Infinite Undifferentiated Fate and Infinite Hunger, the grander the foundation and Immensity of your Civilization of THE First Tongue becomes.|

|When you complete the full integration of the Immensity and Depth of the remaining One Fourth of a Primordial Architect, a much clearer assessment will be made. But as of now, you feel the glimmer of Absolute yourself through your other bodies.|

...!

Yes.

He felt it. He could feel it!

He could feel the single step that so many could never cross across their entire existences. The step that one took to go from the measly Depths of the Civilizational Scale to the Absolute Depth that was truly the stage one was supposed to be at within the Civilizational Scale.

On this day, with two separate bodies, he took the step seamlessly.

Because of his tremendous and unmatched foundation, because those bodies that took the step carried the Immensity of the foundation he held at this time, because of how grand it all was...

He didn’t have any trouble taking that seemingly impossible step.

For him, it was effortless.

For him, it was grand.

For him, it was...

"Merely Absolute."

...!
