*you find mine to be fake, a hologram*

As I thought you would try. I have someone elsewhere outside of existence, outside of your reach monitoring this fight, as they do every fight. You wouldn't be able to reach them even if you tired. Unfortunately for you...I have yet another suprise for you.

*the portion of the Holy Sword that Zero gave me forms around my hand into the gauntlet, with Zero's nanites manning the mechanisms to make it operate*

Time for this to end.

*hits through both you and Fourth simultaneously with the gauntlet, doing twice the ammount of damage before*

*Holds out my knife to your hand, which appears to completely transfer the momentum back to your body*
You’ll need to be much more clever than brute force.

Wasting time trying to stop me would eat up too many resources. I can tell he’s on a razor-thin margin right now.

@Legend

Consider it an act of mercy for her who stayed at my side.

*listens to the conversation and watches everything unfold*

.... I was tricked. Interesting. Funny thing about a trick....I know my way around it.
*withdraws my Control Panel*

Even if this is fake, surely it holds merit, does it not?

@souleaterfan320

The terms of your contract were clear. My Servants fulfilled their obligations.
*Holds out my Control Panel*
As for your aggregate...
*Your version deconstructs and flows into mine*

Why do you keep calling these things an experiment? That in itself shows you have a sense of detachment from these things beyond just the goal you've set. But why is it arrogant for you to declare one way better than others on a smaller scale, when you're doing exactly this on a larger scale, and inevitably leaving the same problem to exist in a more broken up manner across smaller scales, all while committing incalculable acts of genocide to inevitably solve exactly nothing? I'm not sure where your shortsightedness stems from, but you can consider me the opposite of convinced.

@Valiance

Which would be tragic, if the future were up to you. I’m guaranteed a victory at midnight, one way or another.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

New space faring societies have a right, then, to live without the same fear across galaxies? Lesser civilizations the same for forces beyond their planet, and further still that right extends to primitive peoples and threats from across the ocean? Despite each of these scales of society all holding the same truths about them as multidimensionals?

@Valiance

There are countless dimensions with boundless approaches. It would be arrogant for me to declare one way better than the other. But once you’ve invaded someone else’s experiment, you’ve forfeited your right to your own.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Something they can already do, but collapses the entire foundation of communities who've done so on a scale you've arbitrarily deemed too large.

@Valiance

Far from arbitrary, but an acceptable sacrifice nonetheless. Each dimension has its own resources and the right to live without fear of subjugation by forces far beyond anything they’ve ever encountered before. Tiers are, by nature, oppressive.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

This ends none of that. All these things exist on scales below that of universal.

@Valiance

And it gives each unit the freedom to decide for itself the best way to go about achieving peace.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt... But that sounds like just about the worst possible thing I can imagine.
*My clenched fist tightens*

@Valiance

Isn't that exactly what you asked for? An end to bloodshed. An end to conquering.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Experiment?
*Shakes my head as I digest it*
So wait, ending interdimensionality entirely?

@Valiance

*Holds out my hands*
Now the pieces come together.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Going to force this to be watched instead of explaining? Hmph.

@Valiance

It should be self-explanatory. I’m going to capture whatever critical infrastructure remains, and once this territory is uncontested, I will use the System to ensure that nobody again interferes with each dimension’s private experiment.
