Chapter 594
"This is madness," Everett whispered. His rough voice echoed strangely. It sounded like three different versions of his own voice speaking at once. He looked up at the ceiling. There was no ceiling. Instead, looking up was like looking down a massive, endless canyon of doors. Millions of doors floated in the sky above him. Some doors led to oceans. Some doors led to burning cities. Some doors led to pitch-black space. Gravity was broken, but it held Everett firmly to the flickering floor. "The Zero-Point," Everett muttered, remembering the red warning box. Rae had explained this to him once. If the System crashed completely, all the different folders, all the different timelines, and all the different backup files would collapse into one single directory. Everything that ever was, everything that ever will be, and everything that could have been, was now stuffed into this one broken building. Everett gripped the handle of his Null-Edge. The black iron sword felt heavy and real i

Everett’s fingers slipped. The spinning, black hole of the vacuum was too strong. The dark abyss pulled at his heavy boots. He tried to hold onto the smooth white marble floor of the throne room, but there was nothing left to grab. His fingernails scraped against the stone, breaking and bleeding. High above him in the sky, Overlord Everett floated in his perfect golden armor. The evil, clean version of himself smiled a cruel, arrogant smile. "Goodbye, brother," the Overlord’s voice echoed like a loud bell. "Thank you for the energy. Enjoy the dark."Everett lost his grip. He fell. He dropped straight down into the gaping black hole. The cold, empty darkness swallowed him completely. The light of the throne room vanished above his head like a dying star. As Everett fell, the giant red System box in his mind flashed one final time. [CRITICAL ERROR: TIMELINE SYNC AT 1%.]He fell faster. The wind roared in his ears. It did not sound like normal wind. It sounded like a million people

Everett frowned deeply. "We built it to save the earth from radiation. We built it to keep humanity alive in the walled cities."The Overlord burst into loud, hysterical laughter. He threw his head back and laughed at the red, broken sky. "Save the earth?" the Overlord chuckled, wiping a fake tear from his eye. "Everett, the earth is dead. It has been dead for a thousand years. It is a burnt, toxic cinder floating in space. There are no plants. There are no rivers. The real world is gone."Everett felt a cold, terrible feeling creep into his stomach. "What are you talking about? We are standing on the earth right now.""We are standing inside a computer!" the Overlord yelled, spreading his arms wide to the glitching buildings. "This whole world, this sky, this dirt, it is all just a simulation running on a massive server buried deep underground!"Everett shook his head. "I know it is a simulation. But the physical bodies of the people are sleeping in pods. The System keeps their bodi

Everett lay on his back. He stared up at the glitching, neon sky. He was breathing in short, wet gasps.The pain in his severed shoulder was pulling him into the dark void. He wanted to close his eyes. He was so tired. "I am going to delete you now," the Overlord said gently, standing right over him. "I am going to absorb this timeline. I will erase your messy, dirty world. I will build a perfect cage for these humans. They will be safe, and they will obey me forever."The Overlord raised his glowing blue sword high into the air, ready to plunge it into Everett’s heart. Everett looked at the empty, bloody stump of his left shoulder. He remembered the old video in the underground archive. He remembered writing the deep, foundational code of the System a thousand years ago. When you build a computer system, you don't just build weapons. You don't just build gravity. You build safety nets. You build backup files. Everett looked at the Overlord. His green eyes were dull with pain, but

The Overlord charged. He moved with impossible speed. He crossed the fifty feet in a microsecond. He swung the glowing blue sword directly at Everett’s neck. Everett did not try to block it with his sword. He knew he was too slow. Instead, Everett stared directly at the ground beneath the Overlord’s feet. "Friction zero," Everett commanded in his mind. The white marble floor instantly turned as slippery as wet ice. The Overlord’s heavy golden boots lost their grip. The Overlord slipped wildly, his legs flying out from under him. The blue energy sword swung wildly over Everett’s head, missing him completely. The Overlord crashed onto his back, sliding across the slippery floor. "Gaaah!" the Overlord yelled in frustration. He pointed his left hand at the floor. "Gravity reverse!"Suddenly, the gravity in the street flipped entirely upside down. Everett was violently pulled off the ground. He fell upward toward the glitching, neon sky. The ugly Demo Pox monsters shrieked as they
Chapter 589
The dark subway tunnel echoed with a strange, clicking sound. Everett walked slowly through the dirty, red water. He was not alone anymore. Hundreds of ugly, glitching monsters walked behind him. They were the Demo Pox. They were the very first mistakes he had ever programmed a thousand years ago. They looked like giant, dark green insects mixed with reptiles. Their red eyes glowed in the dark. But they did not bite him. They protected him. They treated him like a father. Everett held his heavy black greatsword, the Null-Edge, in his pale, artificial right hand. His good left arm was completely shattered, tied together with bloody wood and white bandages. He was breathing heavily, but his mind was perfectly clear. He had remembered the truth. He was the Original Creator. He built the System. Everett reached the concrete stairs that led up to the surface. He began to climb. The monsters crawled up the walls next to him. He stepped out of the dark subway and into the ruined street
