The Chronicles of the Infinite — The Soulmate's CurseCinema Reactions: The Cosmic Earthquake
The screen vibrates with a new frequency, a resonance beyond Olympian dimensions. The air grows heavy with the weight of seven different realities. Chaos straightens, her eyes reflecting thousands of galaxies. "Seven... there are seven like me? And they created this man to watch over our reflections?" Zeus is on the verge of fainting. "Seven Chaos... a being created by them... we are but ants in a kindergarten." Nyx stares at Archbishop with a glimmer of understanding. "That is why he never trembled before us. He is the guardian of what we hold most precious, yet never knew we possessed."
The Soulmate's Curse
At the screen, Archbishop turns to Percy, his voice grave, almost sorrowful. — Archbishop: "The Chaos of all worlds love their creations, but they hate to see their soulmates suffer. It is a curse, Percy. One chance in billions. The gods treat mortals like toys, but when one of those 'toys' turns out to be the half of a Primordial... the entire universe begins to burn."
He points a finger at Percy's heart. — Archbishop: "You are the last of your kind in this Universe. You are the anchor for the one who creates but is condemned to be alone atop her throne, and for the one who reigns over a night that no one wants to understand."
Cinema Reactions: Possession and Truth
Nyx whispers, her shadows wrapping around her: "'The solitude of the incomprehensible night'... He put words to my eternity." She looks at the sleeping Percy with savage tenderness. Chaos lets out a sigh that extinguishes half the torches in the theater. "To create everything, yet have nothing to love... until him." She turns toward the Olympians with a predator's gaze. "And you... you dared to make him vomit his own blood?"
The Sacrifice of Invisibility
The music room in the manor seems to expand. Percy stares at his hands. — Percy: "Do they know? Do they know they have a soulmate... and that it's me?" — Archbishop: "No. Not yet. The bond slumbers within them like a star that has not yet exploded."
The Dilemma of Fate
Percy touches the painting where the two women are depicted. — Percy: "Tell me... even if they are only brother and sister, Nyx and Erebus have a history. They have children. And Chaos... she is the Mother of All. I am, even without meaning to be, a danger to everything they've built, aren't I?" — Archbishop: "Yes. Your presence changes the balance of all that exists."
— Archbishop: "Do you want to meet them?" — Percy: "... No."
Nyx stands abruptly, shadows clawing the floor. "Why?! Why reject us before even knowing us?" Aphrodite weeps openly. "It is the purest tragedy I have ever seen. He exiles himself out of love for people he has never met."
The Deadlock of Death
— Percy: "I'm not going to show up and say, 'Hi, I'm your destined love,' and destroy everything they've built. No. Even if it hurts... I will stay alone. If I die... all the risks will be gone. Everything will go back to normal." — Archbishop: "No! Your case is different, and worse, Percy. If you die, your soul will not join the Underworld. It will teleport directly to them. When a divine soulmate vanishes prematurely, the divine being is broken. Forever."
Chaos trembles. "If he dies by our fault... I will not just break this world. I will break existence itself."
The Graveyard of Soulmates
— Percy: "You said I am the last divine soulmate here... What happened to the others?" — Archbishop: "They withered, Percy. Tartarus's soulmate vanished eons ago. That is why he is what he is today: an insatiable hunger. Gaia's too. Her loss drove her mad. She seeks a pain capable of drowning her grief in the destruction of her own children."
Cinema Reactions: The Primordials' Shiver
Tartarus freezes, a low groan escaping his massive form. He looks at his hands as if searching for a vanished ghost. Gaia loses her cruel smile, clutching her heart. "That's why... that feeling of permanent tearing..." Hades whispers: "We thought they were monsters by nature... they are just universal widowers."
Chronicles of Universe 17
Percy ventures into the deepest depths of the manor's library. He opens a grimoire made of unknown metal and reads aloud:
"Universe 17. Chronicles of the Holy War. Tenma, the Pegasus Saint. A human whose will surpassed that of the Olympians, capable of wounding the bodies of Gods through the sheer force of his soul."
Cinema Reactions: Incredulity
Zeus sneers nervously: "A human stronger than me? Absurd fiction!" Ares frowns, fascinated: "A human facing Olympus alone..."
Percy continues reading, his voice trembling: "Tenma's best friend: Alone, vessel of the Lord Hades. Tenma's soulmate: Sasha, vessel of the goddess... Athena."
