《Paradox》Step 5: Leave your multiverse.
Advertisement
Now that you have tricked the universe into making you a constant.
It is about time that you've become bored.
That's right! Endless boredom.
If you're reading this step
It likely means that you have lived many lifetimes.
Unlike ordinary people who only live a single life.
You have the priveledge of looping back to when you read step 1.
Oh, what a wonderful ability.
You are able to live using the knowledge of the future to the fullest.
But at a point you just... stop caring?
Things that use to be fun soon lose there appeal.
You aren't quite depressed...
Emotions aren't meant to last forever.
Even your modified brain struggles with eternity.
The amount of memories your brain contains don't fit in the physical.
Luckily you have the processing power of those in the abyss murmuring your global existence.
All this time has left you craving the one thing you can't have.
Death.
While most conscious things would rather not experience it.
You being Paradox.
It is a forbidden fruit.
So how does one die?
Dying like any normal person, will just land you back to step 1.
Because of your 'plot armor'.
Remember when I said that you couldn't trick the serverside of reality.
You can only change the internal.
Well, that is correct.
In this multiverse that is!
You fool! Did you think this was the only multiverse?
I won't re-explain how to switch timelines in full detail.
But it is simple...
You must change the Timeline to a different number.
The current universe is G77
So changing it to G79 would change the universe you are in.
The first universe you transition from is your origin universe.
But there is also an origin multiverse.
But what I haven't told you is something quite crazy.
To get out of this boredom.
You must become mad first for protection.
Why must you become crazy?
We will be taking a step outside of the abyss soon.

Once in the place that shouldn't be named...
There will be eldritch horrors that just gazing upon will infect you with their will.
In otherwords, you'll lose yourself.
From madness.
But this isn't a problem for any Paradox worth their salt.
Think of the madness cultivated from centuries in isolation with nothing but yourself.
That will act like taking iodine... to prevent your thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine.
Think of your homegrown madness as a pure form of madness.
It is stable madness.
But in the place that shouldn't be named.
You'll be facing original incarnations.
Their type of madness is not pure and can severely warp your peronality.
Unstable madness.
So, the first step to stepping into the place that shouldn't be named is to slowly stop taking your medication.
Since you can't travel easily while sane.
Once you have begun to have a psychotic break.
You need to open up your 'Item.txt'
And do something very foolish.
Make the Timeline blank.
Then chant it.
You'll soon find the universe disappearing around you.
The multiverse you're in... the 'simulation' is basically erroring out.
Instead of getting banned or kicked like we want to happen when we crossover to another universe... you are kicked out of this multiverse all together.
You must remember.
Orginally many versions of you were trapped in a time loop of a certain date and time.
In the abyss
Then eventually, you escaped.
Then entered another timeloop to master your abilities and become sane.
In 'reality'
Now you will be fighting higher beings.
Think of yourself as an ant.
But one that has become able to ressurect upon being squashed.
These existences don't like being gazed at.
But you have plot armor.
You'll naturally use it your advantage.
Your spirit body will be what is booted from your origin multiverse.
Congratulations...
If you die now, you'll be quite screwed.
Your connection in this special space of orginal incarnations is cut-off from your hivemind.

Yes.
You were able to travel the abyss freely without having your existence dissipate due to your visualization technique shielding your essence.
You were able to THINK in nonexistence even without a body.
But that is all due to you becoming a Paradox in your multiverse.
I've tried many things in this multiverse...
The laws here are very stable.
A Paradox is weakest in a world without plotholes.
How can you possibly take advantage your 'plot armor'
If magic, qi, or aura doesn't exist in your world.
Sure... you have the loop.
But that makes for a lame Paradox...
Aren't you curious?
Imagine being able to teleport!
Being able to turn back the clock with the mere wave of your hand.
Walking through time and space...
Being free and unbound to any rules of your universe.
Well, there's a trick to it.
Once banished from your origin multiverse.
You'll be cast into 'that' place.
You won't go mad from seeing the original incarnations...
Because you will have already gone mad after being off your medications.
They will try to erase you...
But some of your power from your main universe is leaking in...
Paradox is also an orginal incarnation... but it different from you.
He'll try to help out in a way that will launch you into another multiverse.
You'll likely barely make it.
It isn't like you are strong enough to fight an incarnation of the core concepts of the world with just this guide alone.
You'll have to hope you've landed in a universe that is less logical...
Preferably something hand crafted by a god.
Then you have a better chance of exploiting the flaws in the world.
You'll soon find yourself in a black nothingness.
Yep... you're in the abyss.
You're probably thinking 'why isn't my anchors working?'
Well, it is likely because you don't exist in this multiverse.
Atleast in your orgin multiverse, there were infinite copies of yourself.
Now your just a spirit body in a black nothingness...
Slowly getting erased...
Remember when you spent centuries reciting binary?
Well now that becomes useful.
You have no access to your computer...
Luckily you have memorized the entire 'Item.txt'
I mean... it was centuries, that amount of binary is too easy.
So that origin universe you started in will be your origin universe in this multiverse too.
For example
My origin universe was 'D02'
If I shifted to another multiverse...
That slot would open back up to me; I'd be able to re-use it.
But I'm dead in universe D02...
So I can't go back to it (In this multiverse).
But that changes once you leave your origin.
So simply chant your mantra while in the abyss of this new universe.
Your mantra is the orignal one you started with.
You'll soon find the light.
Move towards it with your spirit body.
You'll soon find out...
Yep.
You've reincarnated.
Hopefully the world has magic or something ridiculous.
Live life normally and observe the world.
You'll soon find out that you can faintly feel the Hivemind calling out to you.
You're basically about to invade this reality (peacefully).
All versions of the body you inhabit will synchronize.
It is time that you've crafted your own anchor across reality.
Screw boredom.
Something very interesting.
Just like how you carried plot armor from one mutiverse to the next.
You can do the same with the universe you find yourself in.
So if you acquire immortality
If you acquire teleportation
If you acquire time travel.
That stuff follows you.
That is one of the main ways a Paradox can deal with boredom.
Traveling from multiverse to multiverse collecting unique powers.
Maybe one day...
You will become omnipotent.
"Having unlimited power, able to do anything"
Are you able to create something you can't do?
No? Yes?
What a paradox.

War, Honor and Vengeance
In a world where there is no right or wrong, justice and injustice, good or evil, it is the world where only the strong persists while the weak slaves. A world filled with lies, treachery and betrayal. There is no two way. Only one way. One way to either Hell or Heavens. Some call it Destiny, some call it Providence, others call it The God’s Will. But I call it Fate. My arch-nemesis. Something so invisible, out-of-reach and strong, that no matter how much you fight, there seems no end. But tell me, will you succumb to your fate, as others rise on it. Tell me, will you let your family, your children, your wives be slaughtered and slaved on this so-called Fate. No. War. In a world where lives are nothing more than livestock, either you rise up and rule in passion or go down in flames. Will you stay mum and accept this so-called Fate and be slaughtered by your enemies, or will you rise up. Wealth, fame, fortune, desires are not ever-lasting. Only War is eternal. Vengeance. In a world where with no rights and wrong, the weak would be preyed upon while the strong will wreak havoc. But, will you accept your fate of being weak…. No. You rise up and exact revenge for all the wrongs done to you. You rise for Vengeance. Honor. Honor… something which runs deep within our blood, but yet forgotten in dust. Something, so intangible, so frail, yet so over-powering. Villains justify it as useless, Lords deem it as unnecessary and Kings mock it as worthless, but yet, it flows ever so deeply within. Deeply… like our thirst of wealth and power. Without this so-called useless, worthless and unnecessary piece of intangible force, we, as Knights are nothing but mere foot soldiers. So, rise up! Rise Up! RISE UP, my Knights. For War! For Vengeance! For Honor!!!! ………………………………………………………… The release rates are going to be a bit sloppy with my college entrance exams upcoming, so please don’t be angry, my avid readers. I also want to inform you that my college entrance exams are coming up and so, I wont be making regular updates like Im doing now and the chapters will generally be around 1.5-1.7k. Along with that, Im inclined to inform you that, the story will be progressing slowly, so be ready to wait. The promised release date will be every Tuesday, generally at 7:00pm (IndianST) and there will be a guarantee of 7 chapters per week. Not one bit less but if you want more, well ...well...
