Infinite (1)
McClain Guffin is a person who existed in the world right before Sirone was born.
Although it was erased, the shock of Shirone and the others at seeing such a person in front of their eyes was considerable.
“No, why…
Arius’ expression was serious.
According to what I heard from Sirone, Ymir had a conflict with Guffin in the early days of his life.
‘Of course I thought it would be the last gateway…
In fact, other people also vaguely thought that Guffin would be the last gateway.
“If Ymir’s unconsciousness was divided into levels based on the size of the senses, Sirone understood the current situation.
“It’s not strange that Guffin comes out first. “Even though we clashed, we didn’t give each other our all.”
Nevertheless, the power was great.
“Just being in deep level 5 is proof that it was a powerful shock. “Anyway, we have no choice but to fight.” Sirone was calm.
Although the form was exactly like that of Guffin, it was only a fictitious character created by Ymir.
‘But it’s strong.’
Just looking at the size of the Hand of God floating in the sky made me feel how great it was in its heyday.
Miro said.
“Let’s get started, Sirone.”
As the incarnation of Thousand Hands Avalokitesvara filled the sky, Guffin’s Hand of God crushed it.
“Hmph!”
Miro’s face crumpled.
Cheonsu Avalokitesvara’s fist quickly struck the palm of light, but was only pushed back by the overwhelming force.
“It’s coming down!”
Gaold and Sirone, who had the sun and moon light ring of Sein, struck at the same time.
The joint joint in the middle
is “Keuuuu!”
Absolutely overwhelming power.
Guffin’s Hand of God slowly covered the ground without even slowing down.
Suddenly,
everything became brighter and Shirone looked around at the pale world.
A voice came from somewhere I didn’t know if my eyes were closed or open.
“Sirone.”
It was an eerie voice like a ghost.
“Where is it?”
I couldn’t feel any direction or gravity, and even time felt like it had stopped.
“AA AA AA!”
Sirone shouted at the ensuing screams.
“who is this!”
“…There was…I…
I couldn’t understand the content from the broken syllables, but I could feel one thing.
‘anger.’
They called Sirone.
“Keuuuu!’’
One syllable was overlapped with more than 10 billion, making a sound like a thick string being plucked.
In the cosmic sound waves, Sirone was able to intuit the owner of the voice.
‘Gaiain.’
They are integrated into Ymir and reside in the unconscious with anger and despair.
‘no. Guyans are already integrated. But why does this sound…
a thought suddenly crossed my mind.
‘〈Zhuangzi’s Butterfly〉.’ According to what I heard in the past, it was said that it was possible to temporarily escape the photon field.
One hypothesis was developed.
‘If there is an outside world, then when ‘Zhuangzi’s Butterfly’ is activated, the person affected is…
perhaps the user?
‘In reality, the Gaians were unified into Ymir. However, in the outside world, each individual is clearly an individual.’
Since Zhuangzi’s Butterfly opened at the 5th level of depth, it will not fully awaken.
‘However, if they were conscious to some extent and their consciousness was flowing
…
I got goosebumps.
‘What is Ymir’s condition now?’
“AA AA AA!”
Sirone covered his ears as the screams erupted again, but it was no use.
The sound waves are broken and cannot be understood by the ears.
‘It’s calling me.’
The signal was being decoded with Ultima, but even its meaning came in broken into fragments.
‘What do you want to say?’ Sirone gritted his teeth.
This is because I felt the extreme texture of the language before grasping its meaning.
If it had to be conveyed in language, it was something that could not be expressed even by listing 100 million words.
‘Indifferent. God is indifferent.’
Sirone knows.
The moment they convert their feelings into language, most of what they say is distorted.
If you just melt into this concept without thinking about it, it would be perfect in itself… but
it would also be nihilistic.
‘Let’s think about it. ‘I’m thinking.’
Sirone tried to somehow combine language to give meaning to the current feeling.
for example.
‘One dot moves around a circle.’
It can be said that the point of endlessly traveling in orbit without stopping symbolizes infinity.
Although perfect and indifferent.
‘Trapped in infinity.’
To use language a little further, we are trapped within the definition of infinity.
That’s not infinite.
… A Gaian’s voice was heard.
Wouldn’t true infinity mean forgetting even the concept of infinity?
In order to do that, shouldn’t there be nothing, rather than moving forward endlessly?
‘Nothing that does not think of limits.’
In other words, it is infinite without infinity.
‘Empty your mind.’
Sirone emptied his mind.
‘Forget it exists.’
When Sirone’s existence disappeared, the universe, matter, and concepts became essentially non-existent.
‘I guess it’s infinite.’
Therefore, if Sirone still exists or is thinking of something.
It’s just an illusion.
‘An illusion without a subject.’
There was no scream or Gaian’s voice, but the illusion continued.
‘how is it?’
Maybe I thought I heard something like this.
‘Are you infinite now?’
Sirone let out a silent yell.
When I opened my eyes at the same time, the whole world exploded with light and all concepts were born.
The world was created.
“Aaaah!”
The curtain of light peeled away as if it were burning around Sirone, and a faint voice was heard from afar.
This time it was clear.
‘We are trapped gods. ‘Infinite Man.’
The scenery of the 5th level of depth returned and the group was seen being crushed by the Hand of God.
‘Open Hexa.’
At that moment, a signal from the outside world that no one should know was stuck in my mind.
“Ugh!”
I don’t know the meaning.
Perhaps it is the name of a rare insect, such as a sand digging beetle, that is not particularly used in reality.
‘But…
it was a signal from the outside world.
‘You can’t imagine the unimaginable. But I have now picked up some fragments.’
An extremely blurry image of the outside world was drawn in Sirone’s mind.
Even if that image is completely wrong.
‘ no way??????
The imagination triggered there was so different from anything in reality that I was thrilled.
“Sirone!”
When I turned my head to Miro’s voice, my voice was suppressed to the point where it was almost oppressive.
Sirone, who was looking up at Guffin’s Hand of God, bit his molars and opened his eyes.
“Infinite?…”
Infinite
I /\≫
The Miracle Stream spread out in all directions, like smoke sprayed by a rocket.
‘Hand of God.’
As if receiving momentum, Sirone’s Hand of God collided with Guffin’s palm.
‘It’s just an illusion.’
The group, who had been holding on with all their might, realized the pressure had suddenly eased and turned their heads.
“What is it?”
Sirone’s Hand of God grew infinitely larger and latched onto the hand of light created by Guffin.
“Yea!”
Sirone’s Hand of God rose into the sky with a powerful push, like an adult breaking a child’s hand.
‘Guffin.’
And along with Guffin’s Hand of God, it began to fall vertically toward the ground.
‘Even though Ymir remembers you, I was happy to see you.’
Kukukukukukukukuku!
The Guffin that was hit directly by the waterfall of light faced extinction while standing still.
At that moment, Sirone seemed to have seen it.
A faint smile appeared on Guffin’s face as it collapsed in the light.
The waterfall of light continued for a while and disappeared only after 5 minutes.
“Is it over?”
When Arius, who was lying down like a dog, raised his head, there was a huge hole in front of him.
Gangnan winked and raised his thumb.
“Good job Shirone. “You did it this time.”
Since it was a team, it didn’t matter who succeeded, but I wanted to leave Gaold’s involvement as a last resort.
“I was lucky.”
“It’s luck…
Miro looked at Shirone with a serious expression.
‘The technology is the same. The reason you can increase your power is because you have reached a certain level. But…
strangely enough, I didn’t feel like I was in a state.
‘It feels strange. It’s really strange.’ So much so that I didn’t have the heart to approach Sirone and ask what happened.
‘A feeling of heterogeneity. Yes, this is a vague fear that arises from a place deeper than instinct.’
In other words, a sense of cosmic heterogeneity that transcends living things.
This is probably the reason why Mongin Ruber looks at Sirone a little coldly.
‘〈Zhuangzi’s Butterfly〉. I thought it was dangerous, but…
Ruber sighed.
‘Sirone and Oh Dae-seong are good people.’
As the incarnation of Drimo, I love all beings who dream, but Sirone’s dreams are truly clear.
‘sorry. It’s not something I can help you with. Perhaps it was the same for ‘them’…
I couldn’t predict the size of the aftermath, but at least it was true that the situation was a mess.
‘Argones will not remain silent. Even if it doesn’t reach the ‘last moment’.’
Ruber, who was wondering if he should at least reveal this, shook his head.
‘I am not a person who dreams immaturely. ‘It exists in reality, so we’ll get through it.’
I just didn’t want to see Sirone screaming in sadness in the future.
Arius said.
“Let’s go down first. I wasted too much time. “Have you spent a week here?”
Miro shot back.
“It’s all because you’re not good enough. “I’ve been feeding her and putting her to sleep, but it’s not helping anyway.”
He made no excuses.
“sorry. But now that you know how, it will be faster. Of course, if we can destroy the god sleeping in the deep fourth level.” It was certainly surprising that Guffin was the first, but Gaold didn’t care.
“Nothing will change if you think about it. “Just hit whoever is there and that’s it.”
Gaold threw himself into the pit without any fear, and Gangnan immediately followed.
“Shirone, let’s go too.”
Even after everyone left Deep Level 5, Shirone remained for a while, lost in thought.
‘I shouldn’t reveal it.’
When I reached the state of infinite nothingness, I felt that Miro and Ruber’s gaze became colder than before.
‘That’s quite possible. Honestly, I see myself that way too. This doesn’t make sense.’
If an event has no precedent, then whatever it is, it is probably a mistake.
I was scared and felt frustrated that I couldn’t predict what would happen.
“Guffin.”
Sirone looked back and remembered that Guffin smiled at the last moment.
‘〈Zhuangzi’s Butterfly〉.’
Was he really a Guffin?
“It doesn’t matter.”
The fact that he smiled warmly at me as I reached the state of infinite nothingness was important.
“I’m fine.”
Shirone, feeling much lighter, walked quickly and launched himself into the entrance of the fourth level of depth.
‘Yes, I’m not wrong. Just keep moving forward.’
Maybe…
even that might be an illusion without a subject.
