1952 Communication Through Timelines! I

Sky Pearl Island...

Felix was spotted lounging on the beach, soaking up the sun while sipping a smoothie. A wide, relaxed grin stretched across his face as he took in the rhythmic crashing of waves against the nearby cliffs, until an eerie, sudden silence blanketed everything.

Initially, Felix wasn't particularly bothered, but the quiet persisted far longer than felt natural.

'Huh? What the hell? Did I lose my hearing?'

With a bewildered look, Felix yanked off his sunglasses and stared at the ocean waves, yet not a single sound reached his ears.

Just as panic began to set in, he felt a powerful gaze boring into him from above. When he tilted his head back, he nearly jumped out of his skin.

Peering through the clear blue sky was a colossal, void-like eye, staring straight into his soul and sending waves of pure terror through his heart.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

Struck by mortal fear, Felix opened his mouth to scream with everything he had, but no sound escaped.

'Calm yourself, little one. I have only come to deliver a message to the entity residing behind you,' Kronos spoke with a steady voice, exerting his spiritual pressure to stabilize Felix’s racing heart so the boy wouldn't die of shock.

'Wha... What are you...'

'Silence.'

With that simple command, Felix’s lips were sealed and his thoughts frozen, forcing him to stare up at Kronos’s terrifying eye in mute stillness.

'I am uncertain of your nature or your ultimate objective, but one thing is clear: the three celestials, the unigins, and the primogenitors. They have no place in this universe, and you have brought us into existence to achieve that end.'

'My initial thought was that you were the universe's consciousness seeking rebirth through these methods, but I am no fool.'

'If you were truly the consciousness of the universe, you wouldn't be wasting time playing around in these secondary timelines.'

'The fact that you are clearly testing different variables by modifying the timeline or changing the instructions on the tablet proves you are winging it. You have no solid plan and are making it up as you go.'

He paused, completely indifferent to the baffled expression on young Felix’s face.

'To put it plainly, you wield the power of a creator, yet you have not reached that level of mastery. This leads me to believe my universe is either a virtual simulation or a reality-based one, if such a thing exists.'

'I am over ninety percent sure it is the latter, simply because I can retain my memories from previous timelines. If I were merely a program, the deletion of the universe would be like wiping a database... nothing would survive.'

'Finally, I believe this is your true body and soul. However, I find it strange that there is nothing remarkable about them... You are a mortal, through and through.'

'Nevertheless, it is hard to ignore the fact that your death triggers the erasure of the entire universe. I am certain that if I killed this boy right now, the universe would vanish and you would simply start a new timeline.'

'Now that I have laid out my observations, I propose a partnership. I will assist you in reaching your goal. I will follow your lead and help accelerate the growth of this little character of yours to whatever end you desire.'

Kronos went silent for a beat before stating his terms with a heavy tone, 'In exchange, you will transport me to the original timeline.'

'I have no desire to dwell in a secondary universe that is destined for deletion.'

'That is my only demand,' Kronos added smoothly. 'If you accept, send a message using the codes written in the stars, along with the details I need to understand my role in your mission.'

He projected the codes onto the sky, which looked somewhat like a celestial version of Morse code.

'If you refuse my offer, then shield my vision of the past and future as the three celestials do. Do not burden me with this knowledge if you have no use for my help.'

'That is all.' Kronos narrowed his gaze at young Felix and said softly, 'It isn't personal, kid. You were just unfortunate enough to be born in the wrong timeline.'

Before Felix could even process the words, his body began to dissolve into tiny particles, a painless end...

***

Back in the Original Timeline... A few minutes later.

Felix sat there with wide eyes, completely paralyzed for several minutes, unable to utter a single word.

After a while, he couldn't help but burst into a fit of loud laughter.

"Hahaha! This is insane! I was truly a fool to underestimate the wits of a being who has lived for billions of years!" Felix felt a mix of horror and awe at Kronos’s brilliant mind. The being had deduced almost everything on his own with very little evidence.

He hadn't just predicted Felix; he had completely deconstructed every move Felix had made or even considered!

"If the three celestials weren't blocked from this information, they would have come to the same conclusion," Felix said, his eyes narrowing. "Those entities are not to be trifled with."

Now that an unexpected offer of cooperation had been handed to him without even needing an explanation, Felix had no intention of turning it down.

He realized that while Kronos was close to the truth, he hadn't fully grasped it yet... This meant Felix could accept his aid safely, as long as his true mission remained hidden.

Felix began sketching the code into a hologram as he recalled it. If his memory slipped, Queen Ai was standing by to help.

Once he finished, he stepped back to admire the work.

"This code is remarkably clever... He knew I could only make changes before the universe began, so he designed a system based on stellar movements."

The code essentially used the celestials as dots, while invisible cosmic lines connecting the stars acted as dashes.

To any outsider, the celestials looked perfectly normal, but to someone who knew the key, they formed entire sentences!

Not even the three rulers would be able to detect it.

"I need to be smart about this. I have a unigin on my side with mastery over space and time. While I doubt the celestial hearts would see his help as a rule violation, I must remain cautious."

Felix isolated himself once more, surrounded by nothing but holograms, Queen Ai, and his own thoughts.

This time, he spent weeks brainstorming before a plan finally took shape. It wasn't that he had found a perfect solution.

On the contrary, he realized that planning with a being he knew so little about was nearly impossible. So, instead of exhausting his mind, he decided to let Kronos handle things his own way and adjust later.

He knew Kronos would likely devise a superior strategy anyway, given his billions of years of experience and immense intelligence.

***

The Fifteenth Universe...

Kronos stared at a distant constellation in stunned silence, feeling as though he were being mocked. His frustration was understandable, considering the message from Felix contained only three words.

-Kill The Celestials-

'Kill the celestials? Is that his final goal? Or merely a step? Does he want me to do it, or help him achieve it? Why is he being so vague? Is there a reason he cannot reveal more?'

A flurry of questions filled his mind, but only one directive stood before him... Kill The Celestials.

'He must want me to help him become powerful enough to slay them,' Kronos thought, rubbing his eyes. 'Does he think I have some miracle that can turn a mortal into a god? He hasn't even provided a decent mortal vessel to work with.'

Though the lack of detail was annoying, he accepted that Felix had agreed to his terms. Now, he had to uphold his part of the deal.

'Time for some experimentation.'

Since he already possessed Felix’s base model, he didn't need the actual boy there to begin. Kronos entered a temporal state, allowing him to generate an infinite array of hypothetical timelines.

He began testing his theories, knowing the simulations would perfectly reflect reality.

In the first trial, he modified Felix's DNA to grant 100% affinity for both space and time. He then watched as the boy began his journey, subtly guiding him toward hidden bloodlines of space and time primogenitors.

To Kronos's shock, the moment Felix made contact with those bloodlines, the entire timeline shattered.

'What? Why was the universe destroyed? I thought only his death was the trigger. Are there other conditions?'

Though surprised, Kronos didn't falter. He moved to another simulated timeline, this time attempting to merge with Felix from the moment of his birth, elevating his race from human to semi-celestial.

Unfortunately, the cosmos dissolved the second he succeeded. Undeterred, Kronos continued his work, leaping from one timeline to the next, testing every possible strategy to push Felix beyond the limits of humanity.

He cycled through hundreds, then thousands of variations. Yet, every universe collapsed, as if his very assistance was a curse.

'Does this imply I am forbidden from helping him? That makes no sense. Why would he ask for my help if it were impossible?' Kronos frowned, displeased.

'I am missing a piece of the puzzle that only he can provide.'

Realizing he still had billions of years before Felix would be born to contact him, Kronos decided to spend that time refining his strategies.

That way, once the mystery was solved, he would be ready for any scenario.
