Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Unauthorized Transmigration

System:

> "You have passed, Auren. Now... it's time you learn the truth. Why you became like this, and why, out of millions of souls—you were chosen."

>

Instantly, the system screen shone so brightly it blinded his eyes. Before Auren could say anything, his body was sucked into a vortex of light that appeared directly before him. There was no warning. No choice.

Forced transmigration began…

Destination Coordinates: FORBIDDEN DIMENSION — 'Timeless Eternal'

Status: Location Where Zhael Resides

In a flash, the world seemed to vanish. There was no ground, no sky, even time itself felt still. Auren now stood in the middle of a nameless void—a dimension that even divine power couldn't reach. A place where all laws of reality held no sway.

And there… Zhael stood.

His figure was unchanged—his body seemed to merge with darkness and light, his eyes radiating endless depth. There was a majestic and mysterious aura that would make anyone kneel. But Auren stood tall.

Zhael turned slowly… and gave a faint smile.

> "Finally... you've arrived."

>

> "So you are the one who inherits the wounds I left upon the world."

>

Auren opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Only the feeling that he had entered something far grander than anything he had ever imagined.

Zhael walked closer, and the empty world began to form memories from Zhael's past. Great wars. Betrayals. The deaths of friends. Despair. And... resurrection.

Zhael:

> "You want to know why you were chosen?"

>

> "Because we... are fragments of the same will."

>

> "I—represent those who rebelled against fate for truth. And you... you are the culmination of that rebellion."

>

Auren fell silent. His soul trembled violently. But in his heart, a new feeling emerged: not fear. But acceptance.

The system then spoke for the last time:

> "Zhael's Legacy preparation will begin."

> "Only one can survive."

> "If you fail, this dimension will be your tomb forever."

>

Zhael raised his hand… and the first attack began.

Will Auren be able to survive a trial that even the creator cannot touch?

Is Zhael's legacy a blessing… or a curse?
