Boredom is a sensation that touches everyone, a relentless hunter that unsettles the mind until it's satiated by distraction. But who would have imagined that such a feeling could reach even a god?

Yes, as strange as it sounds, a god surrounded in a sparkling white light lies adrift in an unknown corner of the boundless cosmos, idly toying with planets in a futile attempt to soothe his ennui.

"It's been over seven billion years... yet, even as universes and timelines continue to spawn and spread, nothing piques my interest," he mused, his powerful voice carrying a weighty sense of boredom. "It seems that I, Razzu, the balancer of these vast timelines and multiverse, will never find any semblance of enjoyment in this existence."

His tone was tinged with such profound dissatisfaction that anyone who heard it would believe he was on the verge of madness.

"Razzu-sama..." A soft male voice cut through the silence, capturing the god's attention.

The voice belonged to a being that bore the appearance of a human, though his features were far too striking for any mortal realm. Pale skin was framed by an untamed mane of snowy hair, while a pair of light pink eyes, both hypnotic and penetrating, stood out against his sharp face. He wore a relaxed white button-down shirt with black accents, complemented by black trousers and simple white sneakers, each aspect of his appearance radiating an effortless elegance.

"May we be allowed to assist in dispelling your boredom?" he asked, his voice gentle but unwavering.

Before Razzu could respond, another voice-a feminine one this time-joined in, drawing the god's attention once more.

This voice belonged to a female figure who radiated an aura of beauty by human standards: her alabaster curls fell down her shoulders, framing her light pink eyes that shone with intelligence and grace. She wore a fitted white sleeveless top, a short black skirt, and dazzling dark heels.

"What ideas do you have, Light and Lusamine?" Razzu's voice hinted at a trace of interest, albeit subdued by his overwhelming apathy.

Light, the male presence, inclined his head respectfully before speaking. "As you know, countless timelines and universes are still in the throes of creation, forming planets, stars, and even the early stages of life. As these universes expand, so do the thoughts, perceptions, and ambitions of the beings within them. Every universe experiences this to some extent."

"Correct," Razzu interjected, irritation creeping into his tone. "But how does this relieve my boredom?"

Lusamine picked up where her brother left off, her smile almost imperceptible. "Imagine, Razzu-sama, if a being could observe the life, ideals, and transformations of another being... only to discover that the other is a reflection of themselves in a different existence."

Light nodded in agreement. "Timelines serve as alternate realities within the same universe, so certain existences repeat. But unexpectedly, entirely new entities and events can also emerge within each one, depending on the trajectory they take."

"And universes are distinct, each its own unique reality," Light continued. "While they may share countless similarities, they remain fundamentally different. Yet, there are special cases-timelines that interweave two separate universes, resulting in a path unlike any other. Some timelines reveal an intricate balance of both universes, while others lean heavily towards one."

"Now," Lusamine said, her tone thoughtful, "what if the beings from the original timelines of each universe were to witness and analyze these interconnected timelines? They'd be watching themselves, but transformed, as if viewing an alternate version of their lives unfold."
