From the nothingness, a voice emerged.
"Who… is he? What can resist all creation?"
Ren Kai looked into the void, not angry, not amused, just present.
"I am Ren Kai. I do not resist. I do not conquer. I am… beyond."
The void trembled. Even mathematical absolutes, inevitabilities, inevitabilities of force, inevitabilities of scale, all faltered.
Aria whispered:
"There's nothing left… he… he is beyond everything."
And in that moment, the void bowed—not in fear, but in acknowledgment.
