My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

What is God?

In the scientific terms of Academy City, they would be considered higher-dimensional life forms.

However, even Academy City cannot observe higher-dimensional existences, let alone create them artificially.

Now, Hui has obtained the treasure that Academy City has been dreaming of, the relic of a super-high-dimensional being after its disappearance—Marrow—by chance.

Marrow is the aggregate of the origin and power of higher-dimensional existence.

At the moment of Hui's death in her original world, her dissipating soul was fortunate enough to encounter the marrow of a super-high-dimensional being who was also about to dissipate.

The essence of this marrow is nothingness; it is the product of the disappearance of #￥%＆*…… (garbled text).

#￥%＆*……((garbled text) is called by countless beings in the world: the Lord of Nothingness.

Legend has it that nothingness and existence coexist, and nothingness is called by all intelligent beings: the god of destruction, the god of annihilation, etc., and is considered the end of all things and the source of calamities for living beings.

Its marrow contains all its power and the fundamental law of nothingness.

However, over endless time, the power within the marrow has long since vanished, leaving only the origin of "nothingness".

Even so, the marrow still caused the essence of Hui's soul to change from ordinary "existence" to "nothingness"!

The consensus in the infinite dimensional world is that souls are roughly divided into four levels: human soul, divine soul, celestial soul, and true spirit.

The human soul continuously increases its mass until it reaches its limit: that is, 1 million times the mass of an ordinary human soul.

There is a one in 1 million chance that it will transform into a divine soul.

The divine soul, as the name suggests, is the soul of a god. In the world of cultivation, it is equivalent to the soul of an immortal, and in the world of Western fantasy, it is equivalent to the soul of various gods of faith.

The soul can detach from the body and roam freely through the world, enduring countless ages without perishing, and is qualified to come into contact with the rules of the universe, but it can still be killed and worn away by an incredibly long period of time.

The Heavenly Soul, as the name suggests, is the soul of the heavens, that is, the soul of the world.

The gods and immortals called it: the Way of Heaven. The Western gods called it: the Will of the World.

As the divine soul is continuously condensed, enlarged, and strengthened to one trillion times that of an ordinary divine soul, there is a one trillionth chance that it can transform into a celestial soul, becoming a transcendent being at the level of a ruler.

The Heavenly Soul is equivalent to the world. At this point, time can no longer kill the Heavenly Soul, because the Heavenly Soul exists on the same level as time, space, and various cosmic laws.

#￥%＆……Born with a celestial soul.

Even when the universe reaches its end, the celestial soul can still break free from the universe and continue to exist.

But the Heavenly Soul still exists in death.

As for the legendary true spirit, no being knows how to become a true spirit, nor has any being ever seen one.

I've only ever heard this legend: True spirits never perish!

Now, Hui's ethereal soul is very weak, far from reaching the power of the Heavenly Soul, and only has the two powers brought by the essence of [Void] remaining.

First: Devour.

It possesses an incomparably domineering capacity for devouring. Matter, energy, and even time and space—anything that exists can be devoured. When the Void Ruler was alive, it could devour an entire universe in the blink of an eye, making it terrifying beyond measure.

However, Hui is currently very weak. He cannot even exist independently of his body. At most, he can devour easily digestible "existences" like souls. As for matter, spacetime, and laws, he can forget about them.

Second: Traversing the world (universe).

There are absolute barriers between the worlds, like an egg. The barrier is the eggshell, seemingly fragile, but for the creatures inside, it is an insurmountable chasm that cannot be shaken or even perceived.

There's no way to get inside.

Even if the eggshell is broken, the world will be restored along with it.

The world cannot be entered, only destroyed!

However, the Void Soul can enter the world without destroying the eggshell.

After Huiyuan returned to the world and died, the void soul that had merged with the divine essence was powerless to stop itself from disintegrating. It could only exert its own power to leave this world and wander endlessly in search of a glimmer of hope.

Traveling through worlds carries risks, especially for those at the level of the human soul.

Because there is no matter, energy, past, or future on the outer side of the world, and even concepts themselves do not exist, one might lose oneself and drift in there forever if one exists there for too long.

Hui, seeking a glimmer of hope, crossed the barriers between worlds and drifted alone between them. In this process, the ethereal soul instinctively devoured some information and news that drifted between the worlds.

At the same time, they were also fortunate enough to encounter the remnant soul of Misaki Shokuhou.

As a Level 5 "Mental Control" superpower user, her soul mass is 2000 million times that of an ordinary person. Even if only a remnant soul remains, it is still 500 million times that of an ordinary person, making it immense.

This also prevented Hui's weak soul from digesting it immediately; it was swallowed whole and digested slowly.

This is the enormous ball of light that Hui saw when he was in a coma, and the surrounding darkness was a reflection of Hui's empty soul.

When the essence of the Void Sovereign transformed Hui's soul into the attribute of nothingness, it also returned Hui's soul to its origin, making it brand new, erasing the imprint of its previous body, like a newly born soul, a blank slate.

This gave Hui a chance to choose her body again, and this chance only comes once!

Because once a body is chosen, the soul and body will be perfectly integrated. From then on, the soul will adapt to the body, and the body will nourish the soul. They will be inseparable, blending together like water and milk, forever bearing the imprint of that body.

Even if Hui were to become a deity whose physical body transcends its limits and who only needs energy and information to survive, this body, marked with the imprint of her own soul's origin, would also become a divine body.

After drifting for an unknown amount of time, Hui finally encountered a world, which is the world we live in now.

And just then, he encountered the recently deceased 'Agasa Kei'. In order to survive, his soul instinctively entered the body of a girl named 'Agasa Kei' and devoured the fragments of the girl's soul that were about to completely dissipate.

This is the truth behind Hui's time travel.

However, there is no concept of time outside this world, so Hui did not recall this memory at the moment.

Although Misaki Shokuhou's soul was only 5 million times larger than that of an ordinary person, it was still not something that Hui's soul could digest immediately. At the original rate of absorption, it would take about a year to completely absorb it.

Less than three days have passed, so Hui has no idea that there is something else in her soul.

But now, with her spirit on the verge of collapse, Hui's soul has begun to unleash its unrestrained madness, devouring and absorbing Misaki Shokuhou's soul.

At the same time, her memories of her time travel began to resurface, making Hui understand the abilities of her soul and everything that happened during the time travel.

After struggling painfully for an hour, and absorbing the remnant soul of Misaki Shokuhou, whose strength was equivalent to 9 ordinary people, Hui's first withdrawal reaction ended, and she fell asleep from exhaustion.

In the evening, Hui slowly opened her eyes.

At this moment, Hui felt that the world was different. Wherever his eyes looked, the picture was clearer than ever before. His mind was completely clear, as if he could see into the mysteries of the universe. However, Hui knew that this was an illusion. It was like a person who had been carrying a 100-kilogram load for a month and then took it off. In that instant, he would feel that his whole body was lighter and more agile, as if he could jump into the sky with a light leap.

However, setting aside any illusions, Hui also discovered that she was indeed different.

For example, the two seconds it took for her mother and the doctor to open the door and enter the room. If Hui concentrated, the entire two seconds seemed to freeze, playing back slowly frame by frame at a rate of one-thousandth of a second. She could even see the ripples created when her mother and the doctor blinked, their eyelids almost touching... In that short second, Hui felt like she had lived for an entire day...

Hui wanted to know why this was happening, and as if her brain had been freed from its shackles, she immediately came to the conclusion that her brain's thinking and reaction speed was at the millisecond level!

Hui was amazed by the millisecond-level thinking speed. What was even more surprising was that Hui discovered she seemed to have a level 1 ability called "mental mastery".

·······

The author says:

Chapter 7 Darkening

In the memories that Hui absorbed, "mental mastery" had overwhelming power and applicability.

It can handle all mental phenomena, including memory rewriting, mind reading, speaking to distant objects, thought erasure, will amplification, thought reproduction, and emotion transplantation!

With a soul strength of 90,000, Hui could only barely perform these operations on one person, and the power was weak and unstable, only reaching the level 1 level.

Although Hui had never watched famous Japanese anime such as A Certain Magical Index in her previous life, so she didn't know who Misaki Shokuhou was, she still knew about superpowers.

Now that she has it, Hui, who should be very happy, suddenly turned gloomy at the thought of the pain of alcohol dependence complications. The thought of that despair, which is worse than death, made the gloom in her eyes grow deeper and deeper.

"Eiji Yasuda, and his accomplices, they all deserve to die!!!" Hui murmured.

The crime of murder is a provision in the laws of every civilization since ancient times.

But why do people feel aversion to murder and guilt for taking another person's life?

Even when there is a perfectly legitimate reason like revenge, people still agree to use the law to deal with the perpetrators rather than taking matters into their own hands.

This issue ultimately boils down to the manifestation of human socialization.

What is socialization?

Psychologists use the term "socialization" to describe the process of training children to think and act in accordance with societal expectations.

A well-socialized person believes in and obeys the moral standards of the society to which he belongs, and is well-adapted to his identity as part of the normal functioning of society.

Socialization enables ordinary people to survive better in society and is also more beneficial to the physical and mental health of the general public.

But are all people in society socialized?

Obviously not!

At least Yasuda Eiji never felt he had done anything wrong, because his upbringing taught him: you are different, nobility is etched in your genes, you were born to rule others, and commoners have no value other than to obey you...

The moral standards of society had no binding force on Eiji Yasuda, just as most Europeans in the modern slave trade never felt guilty about the tragic plight of black slaves, at most feeling sympathy.

For Hui, she was also a social person in her previous life, and she fundamentally believed that taking other people's lives was wrong. However, after experiencing the journey and gaining extraordinary abilities, her mindset changed.

As the saying goes, "Your position determines your perspective," meaning you should only do what you are capable of.

Having just experienced a near-death experience, Hui understands that those in positions of power in this world don't care about the lives of ordinary people.

Alcohol dependence complications made her realize that the so-called bottom line of human nature and social morality can be manipulated at will by a little bit of chemical substance.

Her socialization was on the verge of collapse, just one step away from it.

And that extraordinary ability is this final kick.

At that moment, she completely broke free from socialization, and her thoughts became pure.

This does not mean that Hui is cold-hearted towards ordinary people, nor does it mean that she has become a serial killer who enjoys killing.

Rather, it's this: Your life is useful to me, so I took it, that's all.

Hui's complexion gradually returned to normal, and she began to contemplate the world she inhabited:

According to the original owner's memories, this world is an ordinary world that is mainly based on science, and there is no black technology in the development of science and technology.

However, we cannot rule out the existence of supernatural forces in this world, only that they are well hidden, so ordinary people like the original owner are unaware of them. But even if supernatural forces exist, they shouldn't be too powerful, otherwise this world wouldn't be based on science.

At the same time, Hui also thought of a manga recommended by her former life's friend. The protagonist was named Yagami Light, a person with a death note. However, due to his initial blind arrogance, he turned a sure-win game into a series of blunders and ultimately died.

Hui remembered that after reading this manga in her previous life, she didn't feel any regret for Light Yagami. On the contrary, she felt that he deserved it and that he was just asking for death.
