Thoth did not respond immediately as he floated aimlessly in the air; after a few seconds, he began to speak in an imposing manner."This world is the final destination of all gods and mages," the cube seemed animated as it spoke, "the pinnacle of laws and magic. It is the highest-level universe we know of at the moment. Furthermore, its total size is unknown even to high-level gods. The strongest mages in this universe are also unknown, and moreover, it does not participate in the power dynamics of the multiverse."Kayden began to understand a little more as Thoth spoke, and he became increasingly impressed. The feeling of being a mere frog at the bottom of a well, even when he had reached this level of power, was incredible. Comfort killed dreams; arrogance preceded the fall of empires.A world so vast that even gods were unable to find its beginning or its end—that made no sense. The number of empires that should exist in this environment was infinite, not to mention the number of unique mages, which must approach infinity.The size of this universe was so incomprehensibly vast that even the oldest divinities, those who had witnessed the birth of entire galaxies, became lost in futile attempts to map any significant portion of it. For every advance, every new discovery revealed only more and more layers overlapping like infinite veils, making it clear that no being, no matter how powerful, could even dream of reaching its limits. Kayden, even in his current form, understood that this was a world that could not be measured by the laws he knew, nor by those Thoth tried to explain, but only accepted as the final destination of all that dared to transcend."What is the average strength in this place?" Kayden was not asking about the common living beings scattered everywhere, but about the elite—the geniuses, those who were truly here in search of an end and purpose."A ten-ray mage with the potential to become a ten-ray god," Thoth described in the most perfect way possible. "You are far above average, but…" Kayden didn’t need the god to finish."I am a mortal unable to use 100% of my strength at the moment." Thoth agreed with Kayden’s statement; this was the reason the boy was still in this place. The world was intensely resistant to his path and law.It took him ten years just to barely manage to use his law. The funny thing was that this time only made him become something far beyond what he was before; every second he fought against the will of the world, his knowledge grew.This world was practically like a prison for Kayden. He could feel the pressure on his body at all times; he felt that he was close to understanding something crucial at every moment. In just ten years, he had made more progress than in the last millennia he had trained in that condensed space.Slowly breaking through the absolute laws of this place was insanely difficult, but even so, it was being done. Kayden just needed time to adapt perfectly to this environment and grow even more."How strong am I at my maximum state compared to the strongest in this place?" Thoth thought for a moment and…"I don’t know. The gods? You wouldn’t even be able to move their fingers." Kayden already expected something like that; he still needed to refine his strength a lot. "The mortal mages? You’re probably capable of defeating any of them, but…" Thoth paused to think. "There are some older beings in this world, some old enough to have seen the first intervention of the heavens.""Intervention of the heavens?" Kayden immediately interrupted Thoth; this was information he had never even heard of. The temporal distance for this to be possible was simply insane."The first appearance of the celestials, something so far back in time that there are no ways to classify it chronologically." Kayden felt a chill down his spine; the level of this world… was intensely greater than he expected."We are at the pinnacle of magic, Kayden. Nothing here is impossible. Most of the mages in this place were born in this environment without mana, relying only on fundamental laws." Kayden had his hypothesis about mana confirmed. "The talent required to grow here is ridiculous; your race must have the genetic peak of development to provide something like that.""Does that mean we don’t have native humans in this world?" Kayden didn’t need to think much to reach that conclusion."Exactly. The only native humans are those born from great organizations and are rigorously nurtured to reach a decent level in this place." Thoth began to ramble with information. "The races are complex and unique. For example, at this moment, I belong to the race of cubes beyond reality. We have no physical form when we are born and are forced to learn the fundamental law of space before we are even able to say a few words."Kayden was increasingly surprised by the information. The more Thoth spoke, the more Kayden felt like a frog at the bottom of a well. The power disparity was complete madness. Any mage with minimal strength in this world could destroy Kayden’s former universe as if it were absolutely nothing.Ten-ray gods were as common in this place as grass in a forest park. Kayden was strong and above average in this world, but… any misstep and he could end up facing mages who shouldn’t even be alive anymore."What do you really seek, Thoth?" Kayden changed the subject; understanding more about this world wasn’t going to make much difference at this moment. "I think I’ve already proven myself capable of exceeding your expectations in every way."Thoth never expected Kayden to be able to reach this level of strength, not even in his wildest dreams. In all his predictions, the chance of this happening was only in a single scenario. The thing is, it wasn’t a scenario in the sense of there being paths for it to happen but rather…
