The rain struck the windows like a warning.In the heart of the city, Aethen Yu sat alone in a dim apartment, illuminated only by cascading lines of glowing code across four curved monitors.He hadn't moved for hours. Days, maybe.
Before him, the screen displayed the culmination of ten years of obsession.Not a game.Not a simulation.A universe.
"System core stable. Recursive logic passed. Emotional AI initialization complete."A robotic voice echoed softly through the room.
Aethen leaned back in his chair. "It's done…"His voice was hoarse, barely a whisper.He hadn't eaten, hadn't slept. But none of that mattered.This was more than just code.This was his escape.
Born from loneliness, refined through pain, and polished by brilliance—he had created the [Heaven's Pulse System], an engine that could simulate not just people, but souls… with dynamic evolution, choice-driven fate, even love. A world governed not by logic, but desire.
A digital Eden for someone who never had a place in the real one.
But just as his finger hovered over the "Enter World" key—the lights flickered.
A low hum filled the room.The screen glitched, flashing with characters he'd never typed.
[USER DETECTED][SOUL BINDING: 100% COMPLETE][AUTHORITY GRANTED: CREATOR LEVEL 0][WARNING: PHYSICAL BODY UNSTABLE — RELOCATION IN PROGRESS…]
Aethen stood up, heart hammering. "What the hell is this? I didn't program—"
A surge of light exploded from the monitor.Then, everything vanished.
Somewhere Else
The void was not black.It was deeper than darkness, a place where time died and light held its breath.
Within it floated a flicker — consciousness without form.
A voice, calm and eternal, whispered through the abyss.
"Welcome, Creator. You've been bound to the world you forged. As per system protocol… your soul has been transferred."
"Mission: Complete your world. Rule it. Love within it. Rewrite its fate."
"Let us begin again."
