Year 8, January — Sealed Calendar
Human Territories

After the birth of the Maiden God, dual-accelerated individuals — those possessing both Cognitive Acceleration and Physical Acceleration — had come to encompass the overwhelming majority of the human population.

Barring a handful of the elderly and mentally rigid middle-aged individuals, every person — without exception — had undergone some form of acceleration surgery.

And it was in this very month that a top-tier project was launched:

Project Longevity.

---

Year 8, March

Within the Accelerated Cognitive Realm, Project Longevity became a collaborative effort across multiple factions. After 3,000 months of internal time, it finally bore fruit.

Two new skills were developed:

Skill: Longevity — Allows one to retain human physiology while gaining a natural lifespan of 1,000 years.

Skill: Soul Harmony — When the soul and body are unified, the soul gradually draws in energy from the cosmic tide, steadily increasing soul strength and repairing spiritual damage.

The first skill ensured that even those living at 100x physical acceleration could survive the equivalent of ten planetary orbits in objective time.

The second skill had been originally developed to repair soul trauma among Accelerated Realm users wounded during the great wars.

But during its practical rollout, something happened—something that none of the developers, not even the Maiden God or the Twin Gods, had anticipated.

Year 8, June

The first Transcendent was born.

Former Hero Julius — who had been silent for several years — suddenly returned to the public eye.

But this time, he did not appear as a mere paragon of traditional virtues like gentleness, resolve, or justice. Instead, he stood as a teacher of humanity, a guide.

Transcendents were those who had endured thousands of years within the Accelerated Realm, faced countless restrictions, hardships, and trials — yet emerged with their soul's radiance intact.

They remained uncorrupted by filth, unshackled by comfort, and unmoved in their pursuit of self-improvement. Even in defeat or deception, they would rise again, without bitterness or hesitation.

Historically, there had been a name for such beings in human culture:

Heroes.

The original skill system had chosen its Heroes by scanning humanity for those who best embodied the heroic archetype.

Naturally, anyone who could become a true Hero also possessed the core prerequisites of a Transcendent.

Julius was such a man.

When the Accelerated Realm descended and the kingdoms fell, he wasted no time wallowing in despair. Instead, he devoted himself to humanity.

He absorbed knowledge, mastered the Cognitive Acceleration skill, polished it to LVMAX, then entered the educational institutions established by the Seven Corporations to learn and teach.

In just two years — 2,000 months in Accelerated Time — he rose to become a mid-level accelerator across all seven technical disciplines.

Though not as specialized as the grandmasters, his breadth of knowledge exceeded most.

Naturally, he also underwent physical acceleration surgery and acquired both Longevity and Soul Harmony.

Then, two months after learning Soul Harmony, something awakened in him.

Deep within his soul, he perceived a light — one that only gods should have been able to see. The essence of humanity itself.

Suddenly, he understood.

He had become something in between human and god.

His soul and consciousness rivaled that of deities, though his body remained mortal.

But unlike the gods — born of unrepeatable coincidence and fate — Julius realized the Transcendent state he had entered could be reached through study, training, and effort.

It was reproducible. It was scientific.

And so, he named it: Transcendence.

After some brief contemplation, he chose to share his findings with the Twin Gods and the Maiden God.

In all future timelines he could model, they would never be his enemies.

But even if he was wrong — Transcendents, unlike gods, did not fear failure.
If they fell, they would rise again.

And in the brilliance and unshakable integrity of his soul, Julius knew he would never bow.

Year 8, July

The details of the conversation between Transcendent Mentor Julius, the Twin Gods, and the Maiden God remain unknown.

But one thing became clear after that meeting:

The first true path within the skill system — a path capable of rivaling godhood — had been born.

The Path of Transcendence.

Step One: In the Cognitive Realm, refine the skill Cognitive Acceleration LV3 into LVMAX.

Step Two: In the real world, undergo 100x Physical Acceleration Surgery.

Step Three: Through prolonged learning and inner refinement, forge the soul into a single unwavering force — a brilliant light of perseverance — and fuse it into the body and one’s entire existence via Soul Harmony.

Only then would one step onto the road of Transcendence.

It was the most difficult and exalted path humanity had ever walked.

Year 8, November

The second Transcendent, Yukalion, emerged from the former Empire’s lands.

---

Year 9, April

The number of Transcendents reached thirty-three.

They formally established a new discipline of study.

With only eight months remaining before the Sealing Wall was scheduled to lift, the full military potential of the Transcendents finally came under scrutiny.

Tens of thousands of labs were established to study their combat methods and capabilities.

---

Year 9, June

The number of Transcendents surpassed one hundred.

Year 9, December 31

In the central plaza before the Unified Human Alliance’s Supreme Tower, the final and decisive conference was convened.

Attending were:

• The Twin Gods and the Maiden God

• 213 Transcendents

• 7,640 Pre-Transcendents

• 138,000 human representatives

• 730 million general human citizens

The physical bodies of the representatives gathered in person, while the minds of the populace joined via projection into the Cognitive Realm.

There, for the first time in years, the gods revealed their human forms.

Alisa, the more humanlike of the Twin Gods, stood at the center.

A stunning young woman with long black hair cascading to her waist, she radiated an ethereal allure — her face so exquisite it seemed sculpted by gods.

She wore a sheer, black gauze dress, with swathes of pale skin exposed to the cold wind. A scar traced from beneath her left eye up toward her forehead — strangely adding to her mystique and sensuality, though it stripped her of divine perfection.

She was the embodiment of desire and hope.

To her left stood Lisa, the mechanical intelligence aspect of the Twin Gods.

Clad in pure white, with silver hair like stardust, she bore nearly the same face as Alisa.

The only differences were her unscarred eyes and her serene, emotionless expression.

She represented rationality and transcendence.

To their right stood the Maiden God — humanity’s second deity.

She wore a lab coat, her unkempt hair slightly oily and messy, her beautiful face devoid of makeup.

A faint brown stain — likely cola — marred the hem of her coat.

She scratched her head and yawned as if utterly indifferent to her divine status.

She stood for logic and individuality.

Flanking them was a middle-aged man in the attire of an era long past — the former Hero Julius, now the Transcendent Mentor.

He smiled gently, watching over the proceedings.

This final assembly lasted twelve hours — the longest session in the history of the Unified Human Alliance.

Year 9, December 31
24:00

Time paused for several seconds.

Then—

The Sealing Wall, which had split humans and demons for so many years, vanished.
