1953 Communication Through Timelines! II

Within the same universe...

Once again, little Felix was caught off guard by Kronos during a sunbathing session, as the being chose the identical day for his visit.

Despite knowing that the message would most effectively reach Felix during his most formative years, Kronos persisted with this method.

It wasn't out of any affection for children; he simply utilized what had proven successful before to prevent any unnecessary complications.

Gazing down at the terrified Felix, Kronos began his report in a composed manner, 'I have dedicated billions of years and explored millions of potential paths to facilitate your growth. However, every time I provide direct or even indirect assistance, the universe collapses, as if my help is strictly forbidden in your strange project.'

'I cannot proceed further without understanding the cause.' Kronos paused, flooding Felix's mind with massive amounts of data, 'Additionally, these are the summaries of all my attempts.'

'That is all.'

***

A few minutes later within the original timeline...

Felix paced in circles inside his consciousness space, looking deeply troubled. Having just received the comprehensive update package, he was wrestling with a storm of emotions.

He observed how Kronos had fulfilled his end of the bargain. The entity had devised strategies that Felix hadn't even realized were possible.

Regrettably, every single one had been rejected by the seven celestial hearts.

"Why does the trial fail as if I've violated the regulations? Kronos still hasn't learned the specifics of the mission, so shouldn't that be sufficient?" He questioned, looking up at the seven celestial hearts that pulsed with light above him.

Recognizing that he had to address the question to them directly, Felix repeated his inquiry, providing context similar to Kronos’ actions.

Technically, Felix hadn't actually breached the rules yet, as Kronos had performed his work within imaginary timelines while following universal laws.

"Assistance from any party with knowledge of the candidate is prohibited," the celestial hearts answered in unison.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Felix scowled, "You said before they must not know about the mission. Does knowing of my existence count as well?"

"Yes."

Felix was stunned into silence, watching his hopes and dreams shatter like a falling tower of blocks.

"How am I supposed to use Kronos if his help always dooms me?" Felix exhaled in frustration, "Did he have to be so brilliant that he figured me out immediately..."

Felix understood that to continue utilizing Kronos’ services, he needed to think outside the box. The celestial hearts had clarified that he could accept help from anyone, provided they remained ignorant of his mission and his true identity.

Unlike the three rulers who were merely pawns, Kronos had deduced that this timeline was artificial and that the real Felix was using this universe to reach a specific objective.

Even though the goal remained hidden from him, simply knowing about Felix was a violation in the eyes of the celestial hearts.

Furthermore, in every strategy he created, he was constantly hand-holding Felix, which completely invalidated the point of the trial.

Unsure of how to proceed, Felix decided to immerse himself in the mountain of strategies Kronos had provided.

He hoped to find a spark of inspiration to circumvent these rigid constraints.

As for abandoning Kronos entirely? Felix had no such intention unless every path was totally blocked... The being had proven himself to be much more than a mere tool.

...

Days turned into months since Felix’s previous attempt at the trials. During this time, he buried himself in his work, only occasionally visiting his wife and son.

While his son always welcomed him with affection and tears, proving how much he was missed, Asna continued to give Felix the cold shoulder... Felix could only offer apologies and return to his tasks, still unwilling to involve her.

After countless hours of relentless brainstorming and analyzing endless concepts, Felix finally discovered a potential solution buried within the millions of Kronos' strategies.

"If this works, I might have the chance to reach the very end... If it succeeds, my Foundation will be established once and for all..."

Felix exhaled sharply as he stared at the final draft. His hair and beard were a mess, giving him the appearance of a crazed scholar.

The frantic look in his eyes as he studied the strategy board suggested he was slowly losing his grip... There was only so much the human mind could endure.

After spending several more hours refining the necessary adjustments, Felix sat down with a exhausted expression and initiated the trials.

"It's all up to you now, partner..."

***

The Sixteenth Universe...

Kronos stood in the same position, watching the same stars. However, their alignment had shifted entirely, forming a new, lengthy message.

-Celestial Reincarnation, No Memories.-

'Celestial Reincarnation, No Memories... What exactly is he suggesting?' Kronos narrowed his eyes at the mysterious text.

He recognized the first part easily, as he had titled every strategy before delivering them to Felix.

Celestial Reincarnation was one of the most intricate plans, but if successful, Felix would gain the highest potential of any entity below a celestial level.

However, the 'No Memories' portion was harder to decipher.

'No memories... is he referring to himself or me?' Kronos pondered deeply, 'If he means me, is he saying I must lack all recollection while helping him?'

As he considered this, his eyes sharpened as the pieces of the puzzle clicked together instantly.

'If that's the case, is he talking about my memory of his existence? Is he suggesting that my knowledge of him is what causes the universe to fail?'

'It's starting to make sense... He has been trying to get help from those within the timeline while ensuring they don't know who he is. This can only mean that help from a knowledgeable party is forbidden.'

After spending billions of years agonizing over this problem, his mind only required the correct hint to connect everything!

'Celestial Reincarnation, no memories, hahaha! I see now. Out of millions of paths, this is truly the only viable one. Not bad at all.'

Kronos laughed softly after deciphering Felix's entire scheme from those four simple words.

'No wonder you created the realm of infinite mirroring frozen timelines. Based on this plan, I can expect a celestial to be born later and confined in the imprisonment grounds.'

'You are doing your part and expecting me to find a way to do mine without any memory of you while I'm doing it.'

'Challenge accepted.' Kronos smirked.

In his original concept for Celestial Reincarnation, he had found a method for Felix to be reborn with a celestial core if certain criteria were met!

First and foremost, Felix required a celestial origin.

While Kronos hadn't detected a celestial mark on Felix's mortal form, he believed he could facilitate that on the other side.

The second condition required Felix to construct an entirely new mirroring realm containing frozen timelines that spanned the entire duration of the universe.

Unlike standard timelines or the multiverse, which progress simultaneously, Kronos needed this infinite realm to be suspended in time.

His testing had shown that if all timelines moved at once, the universe would break because of Felix.

He was the true anchor; if he lived in multiple timelines simultaneously, it would be no different than being in several universes at once.

Instead, Kronos envisioned a mirroring realm similar to the spirit realm, void realm, quantum realm, or the eternal kingdom.

Because it was a realm, the moment Felix 'reincarnated' into a different timeline, it would be like dying in a game and returning to a much earlier save point.

The difference was that Felix would retain the memories of his previous point, while the "game" resumed as usual.

In this scenario, the material universe was the game, and other realms remained untouched by timeline shifts since they existed outside the system.

This meant the unigins, celestials, spirits, and quantum citizens would either be aware of the change or not feel it at all.

However, Kronos knew it was too risky to send Felix too far back. After many trials, he determined the ideal period was exactly twenty years.

This wasn't the only detail; he had also sent Felix the optimal time to seal the celestial and the coordinates for their encounter.

Everything was meticulously prepared, as Kronos knew that randomness was not permitted in matters of temporal manipulation.

Now that they finally had a shared plan, it was up to him to figure out how to execute it while having no memory of Felix, the plan, or the other side!

He had to perform his role completely blindfolded!
