Chapter 544 The Core Devourer
Fitran stood in the innermost room of Deus, now silent, surrounded by dead data spread out like the ruins of a fallen civilization. The weakened structures emitted echoes from memories he could no longer touch, creating a profound aura of loneliness.
He had reassembled part of himself, summoned the Sword of Voidlight, and touched the Unity Entity—yet the data about Rinoa had completely vanished. Not corrupted. Not deleted. Just... absent.
In the Terminal, dimmed by cold blue light,
Fitran opened the central panel of Deus. With hope and tension, he typed that name repeatedly:
SEARCH: RINOA
Rinoa Lir Seraphin
Homo Eternum
Subject ∇-R
Void Archive Access: DEEP TRACE
All searches yielded only one sentence that crushed his hopes:
"DATA UNAVAILABLE. TARGET NO LONGER EXISTS IN INDEX."
