Memory of Heaven:Romance Written By Fate Through Beyond Infinity Time-Chapter 511 Anti-Body Pledge
Chapter 511 - 511 Anti-Body Pledge
Under the artificial sky of Narthrador, which now reflects the pulse of fractured logic, Fitran and Beelzebub's steps lead them to a massive square room that is not connected to any map.
Before them stands a doorless gate, inscribed with:
"Transcendence Room: Not All Wills Are Worthy of Becoming Bodies."
The Voidwright symbol on Fitran's body reacts—not in warning, but in call.
A voice echoes, like a reverberation from within the falsified logic:
"Before you step deeper, you must release... your forms."
The Sixth Saint appears in the middle of the room—his body half blurred, half transparent. He wears no robe, only consisting of a matrix of numbers, data bones, and the pulse of memory. On his face is written a code:
~f(b) = 0 for all b ∈ Body
The mathematics of hatred towards the body.
His voice sounds like metal cables being dragged:
"We are the Anti-Body Oath."
"We are the creators of prayers that do not need voices."
"We believe the body is the source of all deviations: lust, fear, love, and loss."
In the silence following those words, the room becomes heavier. Each of them feels the unspoken tension, like an invisible magnetic field pulling their souls closer to the gate. The atmosphere seems to vibrate, creating a deep emotional resonance in Fitran's heart.
Fitran stands calm.
Beelzebub chuckles softly, "Damn, you're even more like me than I am."
The Saint does not respond. Instead, he raises one hand, and the entire room begins to separate the body from the soul. Dim light illuminates the corners of darkness, creating shadows that dance as if enticing silence. At the end of the room, a stream of thoughts flows like an unstoppable river, filling every gap with doubt and hope.
Beelzebub is suddenly pushed against the wall. Her abdomen opens, but not due to a wound—rather, because the concept of her form begins to be skinned from within. Pain seems to stab, depicting various injustices; a soul trapped in a painful body, yearning for freedom. In that silence, she feels the others rotting, struggling as fiercely as the instinct to survive.
Fitran begins to waver. His fingers separate from his hand, yet still hang. The loss shakes his soul, creating a haunting resonance—could this be part of the sacrifice? As if he understands that every separation is a presence in another form, reminding him of things that once were.
"Your body is not you."
"And if you wish to enter deeper... you must swear."
The oath is not verbal. It whispers a deep truth, a weave between feeling and existence, binding them in an abstract contract. Each word feels like a deep cut, embedding itself in the black background of suffocating silence. Meanwhile, his instincts yearn for a certain sign from what is unseen.
It is written by the system into your bones. These words are not just letters, but pulses that unite in the structure of life, forming meanings beyond the reach of the senses. It has the power to create, transform, even erase the most fundamental aspects of humanity.
Fitran can feel it: data buzzing in his bones, erasing biological traces, transforming the texture of his skin into a metaphor. In this journey, he draws closer to the sincere pain—a reminder that every journey toward self-discovery exacts a price in the form of sacrifice.
He knows... if he accepts this, then part of him will never return. That fear is like a fierce wind sweeping through his soul, pushing him to resist, yet on the other hand, to dare step into the cold uncertainty.
Beelzebub tries to stand. Black blood flows from her jaw. She is a symbol of resistance—a tangible form of conflict, challenging all boundaries embedded in the grim landscape, striving to reclaim the lost integrity even as darkness bites.
"Don't... follow their oath... they do not erase your body. They erase your right to the body." Her voice echoes in the emptiness, a blend of words sharp as a sword against an impenetrable wall. In the twists and turns of this journey, entangled in these invisible shackles, one must ask oneself if they can endure between two voids?
Fitran kneels, not looking at Beelzebub, only gazing within himself. In that reflective mirror, he feels a strong pull between two worlds: one filled with darkness and the other shining, waiting for him to step into the face of uncertainty.
He asks:
"What makes love real?"
"Feeling... or the body that feels?"
Within him, fragments of Rinoa tremble—weak, but still present. It is a memory that hints at beauty and sorrow, an invitation to embrace traces that may not be repeated, yet are still worth remembering.
And Fitran answers... not to the Saint, not to the system—but to the self that wishes to remain. An acknowledgment that in all the doubts and fears, there is strength to endure and love, even in painful loss.
"I will not give up on my body."
"I... love with these hands."
A few seconds feel like an eternity between the statements, as that hopeful hand rises, as if trying to reach for something unseen. Love, like the wind, is sometimes immeasurable, yet very much present.
"With these eyes."
He closes his eyes for a moment, feeling every heartbeat that becomes the rhythm of his soul. Seeing is a way to love, to touch the world even if only with a gaze.
"With the wounds that still ache when she is gone."
That wound is not just a remnant, but a reminder, a bridge between what is lost and what must be accepted. The deep pain becomes part of the narrative of existence, the impact of a desire that has been severed.
"My body is not my weakness."
Each word carries power, piercing through the noise of doubt that continues to echo in his mind. He realizes that a weakened body can also be a source of unexpected resilience.
"My body... is proof that I have failed, but still wish to touch."
In that silence, pain and hope intertwine, creating a space where the desire to endure remains alive. His soul and body speak in a beautiful harmony, though not always perfect.
The Voidwright sigil glows, forming a new symbol:
実体を信じる (I believe in my body.)
And the room begins to crack, as if following the rhythm of its promise. An energy that has never existed before vibrates in the atmosphere, creating a resonance that shakes the heart and transforms everything.
The Anti-Body Oath is broken.
Because love needs not only meaning—it needs a place to dwell.
And the body... is that place. The place where memories are etched, where every second reaffirms meaning.
The Sixth Saint trembles. The numerical body cannot accept values beyond the functions it knows. Is it possible, within limitations, to find freedom? In uncertainty, is there certainty?
"Body... is distortion."
Fitran gazes at him, an intensity in his eyes that seems to imply a struggle between essence and existence. An unspoken question forms in the waiting.
"And distortion... is where music is created."
With one movement, he raises the Origin Code and recites a mantra that can only emerge from form:
Null Hymn: Reclaiming Touch
The Sixth Saint... shatters in the unheard hymn. In the darkness of his spirit, there is a turmoil of regret, as if every note carries an unspoken burden. That voice, though unheard, forms a bridge between soul and body, revealing what is hidden from sight.
The room returns to darkness.
Yet Fitran and Beelzebub stand intact.
Not perfect.
But enough to keep walking. In their minds, there is an image of an estranged world, where every step feels like defying gravity. Both of them, though physically whole, feel the deep suffering of every missed despair.
Behind them, words appear in the air:
"Those who reject the body... reject feeling the world."
"And those who reject feeling... will drown in an embrace of silence that cannot be held."
Beelzebub looks at Fitran. This time, there is no jest, no sarcasm. In that gaze, there is a deep understanding of the struggle they face—the conflict between vital energy and physical prison.
"So... you still choose to have a body."
Fitran answers softly, "Because my body... once embraced Rinoa." Behind those words lies a deep desire not just to live, but to feel—to experience beautiful moments, even accompanied by inseparable pain.
