BXBX NOVEL B1 | Epilogue
A woman with luminescent blue eyes seemingly made out of radiation from stars themselves as she continues to stare at the notification, not letting it fade away as she sears the name of the person in it in her mind. As she remembers the last time she saw the girl.
As tears begin to fall down her face from the memories rushing through her head.
Memories of her holding the girl and her twin. Of her raising them on her own without anyone\'s help.
And of the last seventeen years where she was unable to escape the trap set for her within a dungeon, leaving her stranded the entire time with no means of communication with the outside world.
The woman has pitch black hair adorned with what appear to be stars twinkling in it every now and then, along with an all devouring black light that occasionally shines outwards occasionally switching with a golden light, matching the light in her eyes as she looks out over the stars glittering all around the void of space she finds herself in. Meanwhile the only bits of land around her are large platforms with vegetation and some occasional animals floating in the midst of the black void, far away from any of the stars but with very narrow bridges connecting each platform.
Crystal Nightshade continues to stare at the notification for what feels like ages to her before she eventually wipes her eyes and closes out of it, turning her attention back to the group of people she had just saved. Then she simply nods her head once at the confused group, spreads her wings which take on the form of black angelic wings that occasionally switch to appear as if they were black draconic wings instead, her arms and legs shapeshifting into black claws and talons in the process, and flaps her wings once to shoot up into the air.
And without a single word of goodbye, the last remaining member of the Devourer species begins to fly through the void of space, outside of the bubble of air meant to make the platforms livable.
Lexi and Astrid are out there.
This single thought has Crystal smiling a brighter smile than she\'s shown ever since she was first trapped in the dungeon.
And it looks like little Lexi isn\'t a human anymore.
Crystal\'s smile grows a little at that thought. Because while she took a complete human form to be able to have children with her love, she never particularly liked humans aside from him.
And that dislike for humans only grew when he betrayed her to slaughter the angels.
Her smile stiffens slightly at that memory. But she pushes it away again as she continues flying through the air, trailing a wave of black light behind her.

She opens up the leaderboard, letting her smile grow wider once more.

She\'s earned her place at the top. And the other Class S species are all starting to fill the top of the Dimensional Champion Leaderboards, just like they filled the Universal Champion Leaderboards before this \'Reset.\'
Crystal continues flying lethargically through the vacuum of space, uncaring about the lack of oxygen as her mind returns to her husband, and her last name. A name she still hasn\'t changed to this day despite his actions.
Eventually she sighs and mutters out loud, "I hope they never meet him."
Inside of the Quantum Realm
A man watches as a floating screen made out of purple and blue energy hovers over the arm rest of his throne room, the man himself resting his cheek against his palm. Meanwhile the throne room around him is completely barren of anyone, with nothing but the floating purple and blue quantum energy particles of the Quantum Realm itself to be seen.
The man has hair a deep shade of purple in color with glowing purple eyes that occasionally glitch out here and there rather lethargically, showcasing his current attitude clearly in his eyes. He is wearing a set of black armor that contrasts well with his hair and eyes, and has a large spear leaning up against his throne.
Time passes in silence for hours, the man doing nothing but lazily watching the screen showing Alexia, who is currently floating down to land on a swamp island while looking around for a Tier 2 dungeon before she eventually moves on to a different island after failing to find one.
Then the process repeats itself a few times as the girl proves to have terrible luck.
So this is who he chose…
The quantum being commonly known by the other few hundred quantum beings in existence as the Quantum Ruler continues to watch on, simply judging the new quantum being. The first Quantum Reaper in existence.
And by law of the quantum, for having taken on a mantle from his own son, his new granddaughter.
Several seconds pass before the Quantum Ruler cracks a very light smile.
Barely passable.
The Quantum Ruler, otherwise known as Veltorius, has never understood his late son\'s obsession with the mortal plane. And neither do any of the other quantum beings.
Instead they all have treated him like an errant child gone astray, playing with the mortals like they were anything beyond mere mortals.
It wasn\'t until his son got himself captured on purpose that Veltorius finally began paying attention.
I never expected him to take that bet so seriously… but we\'ll see what happens.
But for now, the Quantum Ruler just watches on as his new granddaughter plays with the mortal world.
Just like his son would always do.
This might give me some entertainment for the first time in a few centuries.
If there\'s one thing he does admit about the mortal realm, it\'s that his son\'s exploits in it were amusing to say the very least. Until he got himself captured.
Let\'s see what my new granddaughter will do to this new universe of Valonius\'s making.
