Chapter 99: Savior
“I apologize for the abrupt visit. You should know that we are now running out of time.”In the sanatorium’s rear garden, a nun and a man had a conversation. There weren’t any peeking eyes this time. Only the sound of leaves swaying in the wind filled the place.Aleph’s extremely casual atti...
Chapter 98: Fake Meets Real
“If it works, it works.”With such a mindset, Aleph left the second institute with his needed materials in tow. They are neatly placed in metal crates inside his personal transport ship.Without anything to do, he took the black cat on the top of his head and placed it in his lap. All these times,...
Chapter 97: Truth Arsenal
Everyone didn’t have much time to spare. When morning came, everyone left the first institute, save for Aleph and Mei. The two were currently in a hangar. Sakura, Kevin, and Elysia were dispatched using the Mach 50 transport ships.The clear blue sky looked as if nothing happened, but everyone knew...
Chapter 96: Hiearchy of Teasing
Aleph knew it was petty to use his elemental sight, one that could peer directly through the information dimension, to catch someone eating desserts in secret.Still, it brought him a weird sense of satisfaction, much like when he teased others.“Alright. I won’t tell others of this time… nor wi...
Chapter 95: (Un)serious Conference
Is it worth it?To take upon such a risk was no laughing matter. Aleph could put an end to the sixth Herrscher here and then.However…‘Not now. I can’t risk losing myself inside that space.’All of his knowledge of the Sea of Quanta came from his previous life. The technology to view that space...
Chapter 94: Crossroads
An extremely lengthy document was soon sent to Aleph.It didn’t take long for Mei and the others to narrow the targets down. There are three suspicious places within the neighborhood where the Herrscher attacked.The first one was a meth lab.The second one was an unauthorized laboratory.The third on...
Chapter 93: The Sixth
Tap.Tap.Swoosh-!Aleph’s figure turned into a blur as he sped through the corridors. He is currently in the third institute. What should’ve been a night of rest turned into a crisis.Before he could enter the director’s office, Einstein came out first. She was quite surprised by the slight shock...
Chapter 92: Yet Again
Aleph’s reaction time is on a whole another level. It was completely absurd, to the point his mind processed his surroundings beyond the one millisecond level. Everything halted in his perception, making it as if time had stopped.‘A supercharged projectile fired from a makeshift railgun.’{Resu...
Chapter 91: Amber
Aleph slept for four hours before he woke up. Without having anything to do, he took out one of the silver cards he hid on the compartment beneath his bed’s flooring.The scenery changed. He found himself in the midst of a ruined city.As usual, Kashimo was sitting on a huge boulder on Shinjuku’s ...
Chapter 90: Malice of the World
A huge dragon.Its body was bigger than any mountains humans had seen. Inside this white space filled with nothingness, its sheer presence immediately took Aleph’s attention.His mind, which was fuzzy, started recalling what happened.‘I used Great Sage’s assistance to merge with the fourth fragm...
Chapter 89: Checkmating Oneself
Aleph was fine when he entered the lounge. However, when he left, he demonstrated signs of being listless. If not for his shoulder-length hair, his reddened ears would’ve been noticeable.Nevertheless, his strange behavior was noticed by Anna who was in a lab gown.“Major Anna… How was it?”“...
Chapter 88: Switching to the Offensive
School is a place to learn new things. However, it becomes irrelevant to those giftedpeople. Mei was one such example.She could’ve sped through the entire educational phaseand graduated with a doctorate. The only reason why she didn’t was due to her father’s insistence.“It’s not just knowl...
Chapter 87: Recollections
Narrowed irises.Cold sweat.Trembling pupils.A tell-tale sign of anxiety attacks. Aleph had seen it way too many times during his tenure as a soldier.‘It’s the worst…’The girl’s condition was akin to a soldier who was the only one who survived. Not only would there be survivor’s guilt, th...
Chapter 86: Half a Student
Aleph had the brief moment to group the achievements and the rewards he amassed during this expedition. There are more than a dozen of them, ranging from ‘small’ achievements to the ‘major’ ones.He first sorted out the major ones.[Let it Go: Fight against a formidable opponent with cold-type...
Chapter 85: Affirmation
The world is separated into various dimensions, some of which may be imperceptible to the naked eyes. It doesn’t apply to Aleph, however. His elemental sightwas enough to see all the informationthere was within a space. He even had a vague feeling of being able to see someone else at the opposite ...
Chapter 84: Authority
It was a hot mess.That was what Fire MOTH experienced at the night of the fifth major eruption.First was the loss of satellite feeds. Nearly all camera feeds within the four cities struck by the eruption got lost. As a result, they had to manually read and predict the situation through honkai energy...

A long night has ended.It was true.However, it was relative to the most dangerousbeing within the City of Justice.Psshk-!Psshk-!Zoom-!A blur blitzed through an entire street in one go. With a single jump, Aleph landed straight to where a templar-class beast was present. The momentum of more than fif...
Chapter 82: End to a Long Night
Looking at the peaceful sleeping look of the girl in his arms, Aleph recalled the Annathat he knew.‘She’s also the fifth herrscher. If this is not fate, then…’His mind flew to the other girlwhom he asked to be monitored.‘The sixth and seventh… It should… no. It willbe different this ti...
Chapter 81: Turning Point
“What… should I do?”It was a very simple question, yet most humans did not exactly know what the answer was.Most of the time, they chose to be swept by the flow. It was an aimless journey with a goal far too generalized—such as living a “good” life, repaying one’s parents, and so on.An...
Chapter 80: Cut-out Threads
The Sundown Alley is a marginalizedplace. It is a hotbed for criminals and refugees whose identities weren't convenient to be disclosed.Naturally, there would be a feedback loopwhere several eccentriccharacters knew each other.The girl, Pardofelis, only became a proficient thief two years ago. T...
Chapter 79: Stalemate
The Current Eraexisted atop the Previous Era’s efforts. They inherited numerous advantages, to the point the significant people in the former achieved things the Previous Era could not.For Aleph, Elysia’ssacrifice was the most significant one. It isn’t wrong to say there wouldn’t be the Curr...
Chapter 78: Land of Frost
Fifteen storeys tall.Converted into meters, it is more than 55 meters aboveground. In respect to gravity, it takes more than five seconds to land to the ground.‘A human ego. I'll see how it goes.’Aleph was aware of his sudden actions. Instead of striking from afar with one blow, he forsook h...
Chapter 77: Change of Plans
Traveling between two different continents was often time consuming. The number of flights, appointments, and preparations made was enough for a well-off family to plan for it months prior to their travel date.Fire MOTH, however, developed an advanced transportation plan. That includes transport pla...
Chapter 76: Fifth Herrscher
Hurried footsteps could be heard all across the third institute. The sound of blaring alarms as well as bright orange lights filled the entire place.Tap.Tap.Tap.The sounds of heavy footsteps turned everything silent for a moment. For some reason, everyone looked in the direction of a man. Moments la...
Chapter 75: Luck and Misfortune
The next three months passed quickly.Drip.Drip.Drip.Beads of sweat dropped to the cold metal floor. Aleph’s entire body was oozing with sweat… and blood.“Multiplying the negatives…”In his eyes lay a pale blue light. His aura went to a complete change, as if he was someone who couldn’t ex...
Chapter 74: Sanctum
A small sphere-shaped metal rests quietly in Aleph’s palms. It was six points similar to the nuclear reactor used in his nuclear suits. There should’ve been light inside its transparent part, yet there weren’t any.“It’s… this. I can’t be wrong.”Complex emotions went through him. Alth...
Chapter 73: Daily Life
The past few days were fruitful to Aleph. Not only was he able to conduct four successfulMANTIS surgeries in a row, he was also able to gain significant achievements.

Chapter 70: Checkpoints and Finish Lines
After Aleph’s departure, Mobius immediately busied herself in a self-check “mental test”. The memories of dozens of psychology tests inside her mind were put into use at this moment.“Three… Two… Four…”She easily recalled them to the point she didn’t even need to write them. All she...
