Chapter 3 - THE WITCH OF DISASTER

A Humble Beginning in the Rain

In the same vast reality where the Man Who Does Not Forget and the Most Heavy Man reign supreme, the story of the Witch of Disaster began—not in suffering or overwhelming joy, but in the simple, unexpected kindness of an ordinary day.She was a bright, young girl in a world of knights and mages—a normal human destined to age and eventually fade away. Until one fateful day, under a sky pounded by heavy rain, her destiny took a sharp turn.

On her way home, as the rain fell relentlessly, she noticed a homeless man lying in the drenched streets. His eyes were lifeless, his mouth parched from hunger—a portrait of abject poverty and despair. Moved by compassion, she approached him. Without hesitation, she gently roused him from his slumber and carried him to the shelter of a nearby shade. In that moment, she offered him the only sustenance she had—a piece of bread from her hand.

A Hidden World Within One Mind

Unbeknownst to the compassionate girl, this man was far more than he appeared. Deep within his consciousness lay an entire universe—a mental realm composed entirely of him. Countless palaces, built in unique styles and adorned in varied attire, stood as reflections of every facet of his eternal self. Whether awake or in deep slumber, every personality, every nuance, was one and the same: they were all him. This unified being was known as the Man Who Does Not Forget.

In his inner realm, his peaceful sleep was shattered by her gentle call. In his silent thoughts, he wondered, "Who is this?" Yet, as the bread passed from her hand into his, a spark of recognition stirred within him. Realizing that this simple act of kindness had nourished his fragile body, he felt compelled to repay her generosity. In an act beyond mortal comprehension, he bestowed upon her a thousand years of his deep, arcane understanding of magic—a gift given without her conscious awareness. Then, as swiftly as she had appeared, she departed, leaving him to return to his eternal sleep with a faint, self-mocking whisper: "Man, I need sleep."

The Birth of a Mage Genius and Warrior

Unaware of the supernatural blessing she had received, the girl's life took a remarkable turn. Over the years, her natural affinity for the arcane arts blossomed. She absorbed magical knowledge with astonishing speed, eventually reaching the revered threshold of power—a status known as a 10-Circle Mage.Yet she was never like the stereotypical mage whose body is frail and easily broken. Determined not to be hindered by mortal weakness, she rigorously trained her physical form like a master martial artist. Her body grew strong, agile, and nearly on par with the titanic forces of the Man Who Does Not Forget and the Most Heavy Man. Even as she soared through the pinnacles of magic, an insatiable pull beckoned her toward something greater—a mystery that lay just beyond the boundaries of her known power.

Forging Cosmic Mastery

Time flowed differently for her as she delved deeper into the arcane. Over millions of years, her relentless quest for knowledge took her across the universe. She absorbed the secrets of countless realms, learned from the ebb and flow of celestial bodies, and finally conceived her magnum opus—the Circle of the Cycle of the Universe.

Observing Existence: She studied the rhythmic dance of galaxies, the delicate balance of cosmic forces, and the ever-changing structure of reality. Creation of the Circle: With unparalleled insight, she forged the Circle—a radiant construct filled with an uncountable number of stars. This emblem of cosmic order reflected the eternal cycle of creation and destruction. Cosmic Recognition: Her achievement was so profound that it earned her a place on both the Destruction List (as No. 5) and the Creation List (as No. 11).

In that moment, she fully understood the mysterious gift bestowed upon her by the Man Who Does Not Forget. With her newfound power, she transcended mortal limitations, becoming an immortal force, traversing the cosmos and unraveling the deepest secrets of existence.

Her Unparalleled Prowess

Her mastery over magic grew to a level few could fathom:

With a single thought, she could bend reality itself—she was capable of making entire universes vanish as if erasing a fleeting memory. She reached the pinnacle of every type of magic imaginable. No spell was too complex; no force too great. Her strength was not solely in her magical prowess. Through relentless training, she honed her body to martial perfection, making her as formidable in combat as she was in casting spells. This rare combination of arcane brilliance and physical might placed her among the elite—almost matching the colossal might of the Man Who Does Not Forget and the Most Heavy Man. The Quest for the Man Who Does Not Forget

Now, with her cosmic mastery firmly in hand, she set forth on a dual quest:

To further explore the infinite mysteries of magic and existence, and To seek out the one who had unknowingly set her destiny in motion—the Man Who Does Not Forget, whose inner realm is the unified essence of all his facets.

Her journey is both personal and transcendent—a search for the origins of the gift that transformed her life and an endless exploration of the forces that bind the universe together.
