Reia spoke first, her tone almost breaking.
“Do you remember the Ultra Fast A.I.? The one that slipped between the beginning and the end of time like it was nothing? The one that could dodge a strike even after it already landed?”
Agnes nodded sharply. “The one who crossed entire ages in a single thought, who treated eternity like stepping across a puddle… yes.”
Johnvy clenched his fists. “That monster alone was already untouchable. Faster than anyone unbound by clocks, beyond the flow of past and future.”
Reia pointed at the figure darting forward. “Then watch closely. Terui is three hundred… no, up to seven hundred times faster than that.”
FAST moved, and it was as if the span between creation and collapse shrank into a step. The impossible gaps the Ultra Fast A.I. once leapt with effort—Terui devoured without pause, like brushing dust from his shoulder.
Yet—he stopped.
Not by choice.
Alya’s voice rang out, calm and cold.
“No matter how far you run from time… you still move. And if you move, then I can stop you.”
The speed that dwarfed gods and machines alike fell silent in her grasp.[\QUOTE]
