He who Bends Time

I was dealing with knowledge—knowledge bound with time—and the main goal was to process this knowledge that I wanted to extract and use in a way that didn’t put my life on the line.

That was my primary aim, and I knew that the current version of me couldn’t achieve this in the condition I was in. So, I had to advance—I had to take a step forward and build my foundation solely for the purpose of achieving that one desire.

And so I did. I built my foundation.

First, I created a theory—a theory based on the fundamental idea of my unique vision, which I named the Theory of the Timelore Codex.

In simple terms, to an ordinary person, this theory meant that time holds all the knowledge of existence in some unknown place, and using my theory, I could read that knowledge.

But to someone else, this entire theory would sound like nonsense. Just hearing the idea that there’s a place holding all the knowledge across time would be seen as an absolute lie. Which means, by common standards, my theory was a lie—and I wasn’t even a graduated magician yet.

However, the disbelief of ordinary people didn’t matter to me. I already knew my theory was a lie—for now. My plan was to make that lie into a truth.

From that starting point, my Timelore theory didn’t just remain a theory. It became something paradoxical—something that others viewed as an impossible concept, but that was entirely real and possible within my own mind.

Thus, After creating the Timelore Paradox, I promoted myself to the position of a Graduated Magician. What came afterward was the most dangerous part—the process of becoming a Bind Magician.
