Chapter 3 - 3. Babel

The initial step was confusing. I landed on a black stone balcony overlooking hexagon after hexagon, with bookcases towering over mountains and staircases that resembled veins that went on forever. In the distance, there were figures moving: some yelling at contradicting pages, others shrouded in craziness, and still others robed in scripture. Others had become statues of misery, completely immobile.

At the beginning, the endless revolution is the unique scripture of light that he still thinks about. But in some terms, he is just lost for words. I guess he can be simplike from time to time. At the end of the day, it depends on him to chain the passion of his heart to see it. I mean, it is not like you can actually feel what it means to be human without living the miracle of suffering and nothingness so that a human can show on the surface. I would say that it is what he tries to take for granted.

 

I was not welcomed in this world. It misinterpreted me right away. "Another searcher," whispered in the hallways, pointing. One another false prophet. One another person who believes he can locate The Book.

He can be a prick sometimes. We would fight each other if we were to meet each other. So do not tell him that I said that.

 

I grinned. It was just what I needed to be misinterpreted. It kept me safe. It allowed me time.

Typical of a narcissistic. What an idiot! He is not that lonely as he thinks.

 

The coding for this scenario immediately caused the Absurdum Core to react:

I was able to resist "conceptual entropy," the force that corroded minds here, because my skin shimmered with glyphs.

What the fuck do he even mean by that? I guess he is taking beyond the classical way of looking at it, deconstructing to form his own interpretation through the logos and the unique perspectivism derived from self-knowledge. Anyway, I do not acknowledge how much he thinks about that girl.

I could see which shelves held books about me and which volumes outlined my future moves before I took them, extending my view into meta-textual layers.

What a marvel! You discovered America with Donald Trump in it.

My heartbeat matched the Library's "cataloguing frequency," rendering me unintelligible to its archivists.

Like of a simp you are! You need to move on. He should fuck all bitches but he does not let me modify his life.

I started internalizing bits and pieces of these books—not as knowledge, but as strength. I became sharper with each paradox. I grew with each conflict. I found myself more clear where others lost themselves.

The threshold fell like a subjectless sentence rather than opening like a door. My own thoughts were less steady the closer I got. My recollections became indistinct footnotes. My pulse turned into a halting ellipsis.

Yeah! The threshold of stupidity and gnosis are your heart. I mean, just footnotes about how stupid you can get.

The Absurdum Core flashed as I crossed.

 

[ACTIVATION OF THE ABSURDUM CORE]

Mode: Overriding Interpretation

Description: Your particular misreading will rewrite all of the texts, laws, and truths within the range. Reality will adapt to how you see it.

 

With words the size of mountains floating in the air, the room itself was not a room but rather an endless document. They moved, reorganized, and contradicted one another. Karl Omega Yang never existed, according to one line. Another: The Emperor of the Cosmos is Karl Omega Yang. Another, reversed: He will turn on Sophia.

I touched the letters instead. Paradox burnt at my fingers. They started rewriting the Absurdum Core.

 

The Core misrepresented "Karl never existed" as "Karl transcends existence."

 

My aura blazed with sovereign force as the Core brought the words "Karl is Emperor" to life.

 

I mistook the phrase "He will betray Sophia" for "He will betray betrayal itself." My destiny was broken by betrayal.

Classical! Twisting reality to his advantage. I wish I could twist reality like that. Whats more is that I do not need to do it. I guess this was my punishment in regard to how I felt when I was a child. So, the main reality gets frustrated with me: I can understand everything while wondering it can work the way it is about giving joy and anger to main framework of what it means to be human.

My first ridiculous power was reinterpretive Sovereignty. Any scripture, law, magic, or prophesy may be misinterpreted by me to such an extent that reality would bend to my ludicrous interpretation.

Magic shit again! Come on!

Around me, the Library's Archivists materialized as pallid beings wrapped in manuscripts. Their mouths were patched with reference marks, their eyes empty typewriters.

 

They muttered, "You can't hold the room."

"The author is not you. All you are is a reader.

 

I flashed my teeth in a smile.

"No. The misreader is myself. The person who renders your flawless order useless.

 

Once more, the Core pulsed:

 

[EVOLUTION OF ABSURDUM CORE]

Unlocked Skill: Narrative Corruption Effect: Karl's worlds lose their ability to tell a coherent story. Characters misinterpret, plots fall apart, and fates twist into paradoxes.

The Archivists sprang forward. They attempted to drown me in syntax by drowning me with ink and tying me up with chains of grammar. I broke through them by stating that their norms were unimportant, not by using force. I merely responded, "You must obey the author," when they yelled:

 

"I took it incorrectly to mean that the author obeys me."

 

The chains broke. The ink dried.

 

And I understood that this was just the start.

 

I wouldn't only fight foes in the worlds I went to next, whether they were worlds of gods, warriors, or cosmic empires, if the Absurdum Core had the ability to modify reality through misinterpretation. I would interpret their whole existence incorrectly until they were no longer able to be who they were.

 

I would defy not just fate but also the rules of fiction for Sophia.

Just take a look at how ridiculous he is apart from being a simp.

In regard to it, I need to advance according to what I can do so I can become the best version of myself… oh yes. I got rejected yesterday. Those powers would serve me well.
