{???'s POV}

My eyes narrow as I felt something change within the stream.

The omniversal stream, a stream which connects multiple multiverses to one origin. The beginning of all.

It was called a stream because I found it to be very similar to that of a river. Flowing freely, branching off to smaller versions, yet all originating from the same source.

I do not know who made "The beginning of all" as I was created long after it was made.

And now, after eons of just idly observing the stream, I felt two worlds connect.

A universe connecting to another. But it was brief, which made me suspicious of it.

Now, I have had my fair share of universes connecting, colliding, destroying, or uniting with one another, but this one was different.

It wasn't just a connection between two universes, but two seperate multiverses which weren't supposed to meet.

Moreover, the connection and severing was too fast, taking less than a minute as if someone was trying to erase their trail.

'Something's wrong.'

Grabbing the armrest of my seat, I leaned forward, finally intervening in the actions of humans after so long.

{Cid's POV}

I was.....

Falling I think?

I didn't know.

But all I know was that I felt a strong pressure pushing against my body- nay, it was entering it.

An unknown feeling came rushing in me.

I wasn't familiar with it, yet, is somehow resonated with the mana I had.

My mana reserves, which were pretty average, was slowly expanding.

Energy which was unlike mana but had similar properties was merging with my mana. I didn't know what it was or where it came from, but I do know for a fact that I could summon my ultimate at a much larger and much more powerful scale.

I could still feel my mana increasing.

My vision was blurry, similar to what I first saw when I was reincarnated.

Blurry shapes that slowly took shape, before being enveloped in complete darkness.

Pitch black darkness which clouded my vision.

My mana then stopped expanding.

{3rd POV}

Tengu city. A bustling and beautiful city that was reduced to nothing but rubble upon the arrival of a spacequake.

Spacequakes, a rupture which splits the very fabric of space, creating a black hole of sorts which destroy everything it touches. But within those mass balls of destruction, were beings of another world. With enough power to destroy the world should they become evil.

In the middle of the spacequake was a being similar, yet oh so different from the entities aforementioned above. It was none other than Cid Kagenou, donning on the persona of "Shadow" and entered an alternate earth.

Clad in black, Cid Kagenou looked around, seeing nothing but destruction.

'What happened here?'
