Chapter 963: Contemplation.
Listening to Hela’s explanations about Vlad’s Soul and his future self, his mind processed this information for a few seconds.
‘I see… So that’s why Future Violet didn’t stop Past Violet from informing me…’ The puzzle to Victor’s questions began to make sense now.
‘As expected, from the moment I became a God, something happened… I became something more, something outside of Creation, outside of Time. I became ‘Unique’, and because of that, my future self is protecting the records.’
‘Wait… Record… The emphasis on the words Akashic Records…’ Victor knew himself well, and he would never emphasize something if he didn’t consider it important.
‘What are the Akashic Records? It’s the record of EVERYTHING in Creation. You could say that everything that has happened and will happen in the Universe is recorded there… Keyword here being ‘record’ of everything in Creation…’ Victor’s mind began to work in overdrive, his Draconic Brain processing the information from the ancient Beings within him, and what he knew to give him an answer.
‘I see… Now, I understand.’ Victor opened his eyes in realization. ‘The void in the abyss where various spheres could be seen were different Realities, Timelines, or even other Dimensions in this Universe… Everything is connected.’
For every action, an alternative Timeline of the opposite action will be created. For example, somewhere out there, a Timeline existed where Victor did not become the Vampire Progenitor but the Progenitor of Werewolves. In this Alternate Timeline, Leona was the one who won the race to catch him first, not Violet.
There might even be Timelines where he did not become a Vampire or Werewolf and simply died due to his Golden Blood.
And it didn’t end there; there might even be places where he was a woman. The possibilities were infinite, literally.
But even if there were other Timelines, they were still part of the Akashic Records, part of the Record of Creation of each Being. But when Victor became a God, something changed.
Victor suspected that this change occurred because of his Nightmare Form within him that was still growing. That thing made him a Unique Being in the future, and because of that, there were currently two Victors.
One was within the Akashic Records, living the present of this Main Timeline, and the other had already lived the present and was outside the Akashic Record, protecting his past-self and his Wives in this present from external influences.
In fact, it’s likely not only the main Timelines, but instead this whole Universe too. Knowing myself, I wouldn’t allow any outsiders to enter my home.’ Victor thought.
‘Fuck, this is complicated. This is why one should not mess with Time.’ Victor began to feel a headache.
Even since he was Human, Victor hated narratives involving Time Travel. The reason for this? It was because the plot holes were the size of a galaxy, and Time Travel tended to complicate things that didn’t need complexity.
Because of that, Victor hated Time Travel plots.
Take the current example; let’s suppose he became stronger, and in the future, he reached the state of his other self who was protecting the current him and his Wives.
What would happen to him? Would he acquire the consciousness of his other self? Or would he become the Unique Being? If the second option occurred, he wouldn’t be unique anymore, right? After all, two of them would exist.
See? This is why he didn’t like Time Travel or any nonsense involving Time. It tended to unnecessarily complicate everything.
‘I’ll just ignore this and continue my path.’ Victor made a decision that was quite like him. After all, this problem was not something he could ponder or intervene in now, considering that he was still within the Akashic Records, being protected by his other self. To even begin to understand his other self’s mindset, he must continue his journey.
As a God who had reached the highest level of his Sector, he would only begin his journey to start tampering with The System NOW. The Akashic Records were something he couldn’t even comprehend at present, even after all this time of development.
Not to mention that Victor believed the Akashic Records were different from The System created by the Primordials. The System is the thing the Primordials developed to keep everything running, and the Akashic Records are simply the Record of EVERYTHING that has happened or will happen in Existence.
They are connected but are two completely different things.
If you look at all of Creation as a giant computer, the Akashic Records would be the motherboard, the power source, and at the same time, the internal storage hard drive of the computer, while The System would be the program that keeps everything running along with the Primordials.
If something happened to the program, nothing would happen to the Akashic Records. It simply needed to replace the program, and everything would work normally.
The System is replaceable, but the Akashic Records are not.
The plot thickened, and probably the fourth wall was broken by his other self, all in the name of protecting his Wives. Something he can completely respect. He would do anything for his Wives, and just knowing that ‘Outsiders’ were coming to this place to go after his Wives completely disgusted him and made him utterly irritated.
[Attention. The Authority of the individual
Victor narrowed his eyes when he heard the mechanical voice of the woman in his head. Mentally saying ‘Yes,’ a change occurred in his vision, and a list of names appeared.
His eyes immediately went to the top of the list showing the Highest Authorities of The System.

And many more. With just a glance, Victor could clearly understand that those at the top of the list were the Primordials, with Balance probably being the last Primordial, who Victor assumed was the man who claimed the title of The Owner of Limbo.
From Balance onwards, there were probably Beings of Higher Levels.
‘Where is my name?’ Victor asked confusedly, as he began to scroll down the list looking for
969 –
It was worth noting that he was very surprised to be in such a low position. It seemed that his understanding of Creation was not as high as he expected. He scrolled down the list even further and saw that the list ended at number 999, described as
‘I likely only managed to enter the list because of this recent discovery, but why is it so low?’ Victor shook his head in disdain and let it go. He didn’t feel comfortable seeing his number so low since he was extremely competitive.
‘Well, I just need to get stronger and have my name at the top.’ He thought, laughing.
Little did he know that his sudden appearance in the Rankings shocked several powerful Beings of the Higher-Level Sectors. When his name was announced to be part of the list, High-Level Beings immediately began searching for him, but no one found the individual known as
Even Overlords were actively searching for the Being who suddenly entered the Rankings, but no one found him, leading them to come to a very sinister conclusion.
This new name belonged to a Being of a lower Sector than them, which clearly demonstrated the potential of this Being.
The fact that an existence from a Lower Sector entered the Rankings and went STRAIGHT to Rank 969 proved their potential.
Putting that aside for a moment, Victor wondered what ‘Authority’ meant. This word was often highlighted when he understood something about Creation, and he highly doubted that this Authority meant an increase in control over The System. He knew very well that only the Primordials could do that, and they were not foolish enough to give that control to anyone. This was an absolute certainty based on the little he observed of them.
Deciding it was worth a try, Victor asked: “System, what does Authority mean?”
To him, he had said something completely normal in English, but to the people who heard his words, all they heard were strange sounds of a language they didn’t understand at all. Even Hela herself, who was watching Victor from the side, didn’t understand what he said.
Currently, Victor was sitting under a tree with Kaguya, Siena, Pepper, and Lacus. Hela was also here, but she was just observing from the side since all her attention was on the conclusion of the ongoing war.
[The individual
“How much Authority must a Being have to be able to manipulate The System?”
[Unrestricted Administrative Access of the Entity
‘I see… As expected, the Primordials are not fools… But this raises the question of the phrase “Limited Administrative Access.”… Does that mean as long as you have sufficient Authority, you can make a request to The System, and that request may or may not be authorized by the Primordials?’
Victor was beginning to understand what all the fuss about Authority and Authority lists was about. If this were a game, Administrators would pay more attention to the requests or consider the demands from the Higher-Ranked Beings.
“What does Limited Administrative Access mean? Can you give me an example?” Victor asked the question, not expecting a response from The System, but he was surprised that The System did indeed respond.
[Accepted. Response: The Domain of a Being of Highly Ranked Authority can be completely free from Administrator intervention as long as Balance is not threatened and The System functions properly.]
“… Oh…” Victor smiled. ‘That’s interesting, so as long as everything goes smoothly, they will ignore what occurs there.’
