Metaverse of Mechas

📘 Chapter 133

🌌 Scene 1: Awakening in the Void

Zeron opened his eyes to silence.

No stars.

No ground.

No up or down.

Just a realm of shifting glass and frozen echoes—where every step echoed not in space, but in memory.

He stood atop a broken platform suspended over an endless abyss.

But… it wasn't just any place.

It was a realm beyond time.

The Archive of Lost Krono.

Suddenly, a voice echoed behind him—familiar, broken, and yet hauntingly kind.

"Took you long enough, Zeron."

Zeron turned.

It was his father.

Not Keiran Vex as he had become… but as he once was.

Wearing a dusty researcher's coat, holding a glowing scroll of old Krono patterns, Keiran Vex—the original—smiled gently.

🧠 Scene 2: The Truth of Krono

The Archive responded to Zeron's presence.

Giant glass panels began to flicker, revealing ancient moments:

The first human who ever imagined a mech, and it built itself from thought.The first Krono pulse, extracted not from energy… but emotion.The moment Earth opened a portal to another world—and failed to close it.

Keiran spoke:

"Krono was never power. It was never meant to be wielded like fire or weapon.

It was a mirror."

Zeron:

"A mirror of what?"

"Of your soul.

Your grief. Your courage.

Your intention."

Zeron clenched his fists.

"So then why—why create war machines out of it?!"

Keiran looked down, ashamed.

"Because we were scared of what it revealed.

So we put armor around it. And called it 'progress.'"

🔄 Scene 3: The Wheel of Convergence

The ground trembled.

From beneath the Archive rose a colossal ring-shaped construct, powered by multiple Krono cores of every known color—Green to Black… and one Violet core cracked in half.

"This is the Wheel of Convergence," Keiran said.

"It decides the fate of all Krono-connected worlds."

Zeron stared at it, then back at Keiran.

"So that's why the Eye came. It sensed this."

"Worse.

It created this."

Zeron's face paled.

"You mean the Eye isn't the end—it's the beginning?"

"Yes. It seeded Krono into every species it touched. To control them. Shape their evolution.

Earth was… its playground."

The panels flickered again. This time they showed Aelira, standing in front of the Mirror Gate back on the Moon.

She held the Second Key.

Zeron felt her presence through the rift.

💫 Scene 4: Outside Time – Aelira's Choice

Back on the Moon, Aelira and Zui approached the Mirror Gate, but a voice boomed.

"Only one of you may enter.

And she must carry the burden of a forgotten name."

Zui stepped forward.

But Aelira stopped her.

"No. I know the name.

The one I was never supposed to remember."

She whispered it.

And suddenly, light flooded her eyes. Her entire body glowed silver-blue—an unknown Krono hybrid, born of star and storm.

"My name is Aelys Thorne.

The last descendant of the Astral Makers."

The gate opened again.

And Aelira vanished.

⚔️ Scene 5: The Archive Battle

In the Archive, time trembled.

Zeron sensed something wrong.

Then—

A shadow burst through the walls. Twisting. Glitching. Wearing a human form with six mechanical wings and no eyes.

"You should not be here, Son of Vex."

It was the Echoed Watcher, a guardian born from the Eye's will.

It attacked instantly.

Keiran leapt forward—but was struck down in one blow.

Zeron activated RazeWind, even in this realm. Its body formed from pure Violet strands.

"You want my soul?"

"No. I want your regret."

The battle was fierce. The Archive collapsed piece by piece. Each strike of the Watcher erased entire memories from existence.

Zeron fought desperately—but was losing.

Until—

"ENOUGH!"

Aelira descended like a comet, her body radiating pure star-forged Krono.

Together, she and Zeron merged their energies.

Their mechs synced.

Chronoform: Twin Infinity Protocol.

A final strike sent the Watcher into oblivion.

The Archive fell silent.
