Chapter 1233 The Past and the Future
“Mngh…”
“I fell asleep all of a sudden.”
Feeling as if he’d been in a deep sleep for a very long time, it took a while for Valyr’s consciousness to fully return to the waking world.
Though, by the time his consciousness was fully awake, the young man was immediately hit by a wave of confusion as he looked at his current surroundings.
“Where… am I?” Muttering these words to himself, Valyr quickly took note of the fact that he was in a place that was filled to the brim with complex machines and devices.
Aside from that, everything else seemed to be made out of a white metal, faintly reminding him of the lab Vaughn used over a hundred or so thousand years ago to create the humans of Veldanyr today.
Pondering over why he was brought to this sort of place all of a sudden, the young man was soon reminded of the happenings that occurred before he fell unconscious.
“Now that I think about it… I was in my shop before all of this.”
“While working as I used to, I soon came across a player that looked exactly like me in my past life,” murmured Valyr to himself, the gears in his mind turning as he tried his best to recall the matter. “Then, I found out that he was indeed the past me.”
“After that, we moved closer to one another… and then…”
Just as he was trying to recall this part of his memory in greater detail, a strong feeling of death swiftly enveloped his body once more, causing Valyr to freeze up in fear and terror as he recalled experiencing the same sensation just before he fell unconscious.
Though, not long after experiencing the ghastly sensation all over again, a set of memories began to surface on the young man’s mind.
Memories… that belonged to the past him.
“Wait…” Taking in a few deep breaths to regain his lost composure, the memories from his past self began to occupy most of his mind, leaving Valyr no choice but to go through them one by one.
From the exact part of the memory where the two of them shook hands and felt imminent death, the memories from his past self ran in reverse, showing Valyr everything Ataraxia did before arriving at his shop.
The plans he had behind the money he earned from selling the drops he got, the experiences he’d accumulated during his first day in Greater Beyond, all of that flashed through the young man’s mind in great detail.
In fact, it even continued on to the time before the game was publicly released to the public.
In fact, it even continued on to the time before the game was publicly released to the public.
The mishaps he had with the scalpers, the excitement he felt when the beta to Greater Beyond was announced, the other True Immersion VRMMORPGs he played in the past…
If Valyr were to accurately describe what was going on in his mind right now, the closest description that would embody most of it would be him vividly going through memory lane, but in reverse.
In the end, the memories from his past self only stopped at the point where he gained self-awareness towards the world surrounding him, causing the young man to remain silent as he pondered over the thoughts that immediately popped up in his mind.
“My name is Valyr Meyers…” said Valyr to himself at some point, feeling as if it was only right to call himself after going the memories that flashed in his mind.
“No…” Though, not long after, a feeling of conflict consumed his mind, causing him to focus on the memories he accumulated throughout his current life. “I’m… Valyr Zeihardt…”
“Meyers…”
“Zeihardt…”
“…”
“Who…”
“…Who am I, really?”
As this question escaped his mouth, Valyr intuitively knew the answer to this question already. Considering the things he’d gone through to get where he was, there was no doubt in his mind that he was both of them.
He was Valyr Zeihardt now, but he used to be Valyr Meyers in his past life.
However, with him having coincidentally met his past self in the world of Greater Beyond, that intuitive answer became a bit hazy, even more so after the influx of memories from his past self entered his mind.
At that moment, he felt as if there were two people inside his body, thinking that he was both Valyr Meyers and Valyr Zeihardt at the same time.
“…It’s a success.” Just as he was about to mull over his thoughts as he aimed to answer the question that plagued him, a young woman in white robes appeared in front of him, letting out a sigh of relief as she looked at him. “How do you feel?”
“…Are you asking me?” replied Valyr after some time as he looked at the young woman with slight confusion.
Seeing her nod in response to his question, the young man nodded back as he bitterly smiled. “Well… I feel like utter shit right now, to be honest.”
“I guess that’s to be expected.” Hearing Valyr’s words, the young woman sported a bitter smile of her own. “After all, I did fuse the two of you as one. Sorting out the memories between the two of you will definitely take quite some time.”
“Wait… huh?” Not expecting that the question that plagued him would be answered so quickly, the young man briefly looked back at the young woman with shock and disbelief in his eyes.
Then, taking a deep breath to compose himself, he then asked her with slight caution, “So, I really am both people at the same time?”
“Pretty much.” The young woman nodded in agreement. “Though it could be said that the two of you should be one and the same in essence, Valyr Meyers is still an existence from another universe.”
“Even if your memories up to that point match up, there would still be a feeling of conflict between you two, solely due to the fact that your existences are in two different universes.”
“…I see,” said Valyr by the time the young woman was done, faintly nodding in understanding.
But of course, in reality, he was still confused by it all.
