I traveled through time and space and became a drama queen in the harem!

The cracks in time and the collapse of the void

Lin Chen stood at the core of the universe, her form seemingly no longer physical, but an abstract being—unconstrained by time, unconstrained by space. Her consciousness surged like endless waves, surging through countless parallel universes and traversing countless rifts in space and time. Her every thought instantly transformed into boundless energy, distorting the surrounding space and destroying the previously unchangeable trajectory of history.

The void before her eyes seemed like a vast web, every beam and particle within it mysteriously connected, as if all existence operated together under some invisible law. Yet, in Lin Chen's eyes, these laws had become fragile. Her consciousness wandered through the endless cracks of time and space, and with a flick of her finger, the rhythm of the entire universe was reorganized.

"You think you control everything?" A familiar voice echoed through the void. This time, it was no longer the voice of a god, but another being she once knew. The voice carried a wild laugh, an uncontrollable frenzy. "Do you really think your power is enough to change fate, to change everything? Lin Chen, you can't escape!"

Lin Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she turned around. The voice came from a presence deep within her heart, as if it were her own inner shadow, the fear she had buried deep within her heart. She had once believed that the cycle of fate was just an illusion of the ignorant, but now, she realized that all her past choices might have been just a scene in fate's script.

"Who are you?" Lin Chen asked coldly. Her voice echoed in the void, as if tearing apart the entire structure of the universe.

"Guess?" the voice sounded again, tinged with sarcasm. "I am the power deepest within you, the self you've long forgotten. Are the choices you made, the fate you once held, truly yours? You simply cannot escape this trajectory; you are merely a pawn in a design."

A frenzied glint flashed in Lin Chen's eyes, as if she were no longer herself, but rather a vast force surging within her. Her body suddenly expanded, becoming immensely larger, as if it had become a microcosm of the entire universe. Every movement she made could destroy a star, and every breath she took caused the collapse of space.

"You want me to go back to square one?" Lin Chen's laughter echoed in the void, full of endless provocation, "Then give it a try."

Her consciousness began to distort, and cracks appeared in the space-time around her. These cracks spread rapidly, as if tearing the entire universe into countless fragments. Those fragments floated between her fingers, like stars, drifting in endless space.

"The structure of time and space has collapsed." Lin Chen said softly, as if whispering to himself, but also as if declaring to the entire universe, "From now on, what is time, what is space, what is fate, will no longer exist."

Her consciousness instantly transformed into a beam of light, traversing countless dimensions and worlds. Every second, she experienced countless rebirths and destructions. She saw countless versions of herself struggling, fighting, failing, rising, and being destroyed in different universes. Everything seemed to be under her control, yet it was all filled with endless chaos and absurdity.

In every crack, a new world was born, only to collapse in an instant. Her existence was like the overlap of countless parallel universes, a crack in fate, a rift beyond time and space. Her smile grew increasingly frantic, and those who once claimed to be gods could no longer restrain her.

"Destiny? Reincarnation?" Lin Chen's voice became frantic and hoarse. "I am destiny! The rules of reincarnation are made by me! I will reshape everything! I will make the universe serve me!"

However, her power began to spiral out of control. The frenzy that surged from within her accelerated, devouring her sanity. She began to see countless images of herself desperately struggling, each trying to escape the void she had created. However, no matter how hard they struggled, the ultimate outcome was the same—she devoured them.

Each rebirth was an extreme deprivation of life; each destruction was a complete destruction of time and space. She began to feel her consciousness being torn apart in these endless cracks, as if she was no longer a flesh-and-blood existence, but an invisible force that was destroying everything she had built.

"I don't want this." Lin Chen's voice was filled with a hint of broken sorrow. "All I want is freedom."

Just as her consciousness was about to collapse, a low roar from the void pulled her back to reality. She suddenly opened her eyes and found herself in a completely different dimension. This was a world without light, only endless darkness and a deep void, as if abandoned in the deepest depths of the universe.

"Do you finally understand?" The familiar voice sounded again, with an indescribable sadness.

Lin Chen's body suddenly froze, and she found herself trapped in an inescapable silence. She couldn't move, couldn't speak, couldn't even feel anything. Everything she saw and experienced turned into invisible ruins.

"You cannot escape from here." The voice became increasingly mocking. "You thought you could break the shackles of fate and create a new universe? But in the end, you will only become a prisoner of this void once again."

A trace of despair flashed in Lin Chen's eyes, but then driven by an indescribable force, her consciousness burst out again, breaking through the dark void and began to look for her final way out.
