Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 1587  Events of the Original Timeline!

Max paused for a moment, unsure how to respond.

Given what she had just revealed, such a thing did not seem entirely impossible.

Still, he remained silent.

The woman let out a soft breath, her expression returning to calm composure.

"Very well," she said. "There is indeed a reason behind bringing you here."

Her gaze settled on him with quiet intensity.

"You must be curious about what happened in that secret domain."

Max nodded without hesitation.

There were too many unanswered questions surrounding that place. How did it come to be? Was it all a coincidence? Was someone was manipulating things behind the scene?

As that thought crossed his mind, he instinctively looked at her.

The woman seemed to understand immediately.

"Do not look at me like that," she said lightly. "It was not entirely my doing. In fact, you could consider it… an accident."

Max narrowed his eyes slightly.

He did not believe that explanation.

Everything that had happened within that domain was too precise, too structured to be the result of chance. It carried the feeling of something guided, something influenced from behind the scenes.

The woman noticed his suspicion and smiled again, this time with a hint of acknowledgment.

"Very well," she said. "You may attribute a small portion of it to me. Let us say… one percent."

There was a playful undertone in her words, yet she did not deny her involvement.

She continued calmly.

"A long time ago, Orion was a planet that served as a gateway. The Ascension Tunnel that connected the mortal realm and the Divine Realm once existed there. Although it has long since faded, traces of it still remained."

She lifted her cup slightly before continuing.

"Someone discovered that fact. That individual created a spatial tunnel at the exact location where the Ascension Tunnel once stood. Their intention was to recreate a connection to the mortal realm, to open a path that should no longer exist."

Max listened carefully.

"That artificial tunnel eventually linked itself to the remnants of the original Ascension Tunnel," she said. "Because of that, a pathway to the mortal realm was formed once again, though unstable and incomplete."

Max's expression grew serious.

"So the people of Orion were able to access the mortal realm because of that connection," he said, piecing the events together.

She nodded slightly.

"When I noticed it, I severed the connection. Such a pathway should not exist so easily, and allowing it to remain would have disrupted the balance between realms."

She paused for a moment before continuing.

"However, when the connection was cut, the unstable tunnel sought another anchor point. Instead of collapsing, it attached itself to the temporal remnants of the Ascension Tunnel from the past. As a result, it pulled everything connected to it into that moment in time."

Her gaze remained calm.

"That is how all of you ended up in the battlefield of the primordial and devil war."

Max absorbed her explanation in silence.

On the surface, her words made sense.

They provided a logical chain of events that explained everything that had occurred.

Yet something still felt off.

The way everything had aligned, the timing, the precision, and the outcome, it all felt too perfect to be an accident. Even if she claimed minimal involvement, Max could not shake the feeling that the entire sequence had been guided in subtle ways.

Still, he did not voice that suspicion.

He simply nodded, acknowledging her explanation while keeping his thoughts to himself.

"Now let me ask you something," the goddess said, her smile calm yet carrying a subtle depth as she looked at Max. "You were the one who killed Kazreth in that secret domain, so have you ever wondered what truly happened in the original timeline?"

Max remained silent for a brief moment as he carefully processed her question, and then he slowly nodded as his thoughts began to align with her implication.

"If I am not mistaken," he said, choosing his words with care, "then someone must have stopped Kazreth in the original timeline as well, because otherwise the Divine Realm would not be as peaceful as it is now, and if he had succeeded back then, everything would have already fallen into chaos."

The goddess gave a faint nod, her expression remaining composed as she acknowledged his reasoning.

"Your assumption is correct," she said, and as those words left her lips, she gently raised her hand, causing the space before them to respond instantly as a floating screen formed in midair, clear and vivid, displaying a scene that Max recognized at once.

It was the battlefield he had experienced inside the secret domain, yet it felt different in a way that was difficult to describe, as though this version carried a sense of completeness and authenticity, not as a fragment or a recreation, but as the true sequence of events as they had originally unfolded.

Max's eyes widened slightly as he focused on the scene, his attention completely drawn in, and before he could even ask a question, the image began to move as Kazreth appeared within it.

Everything unfolded just as Max remembered, with Kazreth standing at the center of the battlefield, his presence overwhelming as he trapped the four Primarchs within the forcefield before turning without hesitation and making his way toward the Ascension Tunnel, and there was not a single difference as every detail matched exactly what Max had experienced.

Then, however, something changed.

A figure appeared and stood directly in Kazreth's path, and the moment Max saw it, his breath slowed as his gaze locked onto that presence.

There was nothing ordinary about that figure, because its entire body seemed to be composed of countless stars, each one shimmering faintly within a vast and endless expanse contained inside a humanoid form, as though a fragment of the cosmos itself had taken shape in a way that could not be defined by any normal perception.

It did not move, and it did not speak, yet it simply stood there, and its presence alone altered everything around it in a way that could not be explained.
