Silent Reality: A Dark History Hidden Behind “Fiction.”

I’ve decided to extract four chapters from *God Code* and expand them into a standalone side work.

These chapters total roughly 80,000 words, covering a thirty‑year narrative and extending the V‑Universe’s historical backdrop by more than a millennium.

At its core, the story follows ordinary people living in a special, distorted era—

people whose cognition was forcibly twisted, and how they eventually awakened.

My plan is to enrich and extend these chapters into a V‑Universe side novel of about 300,000 words.

The reason I finally made this decision was a long online conversation with an elder.

For certain reasons, online communication is the only way I can reach him.

We talked about life, current events, and sometimes he would mention things far beyond what I thought I understood.

I always believed I knew more about that era than his generation.

But hearing it from someone who lived through it—

that fear beyond fear,

that experience capable of reducing a “person” to something that no longer feels human—

it was overwhelming.

I urged him to record his memories so I could help write a historical account,

but he refused.

I understand why.

Still, the regret lingered.

For days afterward, I kept thinking:

*If I could record that weight of truth through the lens of “fiction,” what would it become?*

Then I suddenly remembered those four chapters in *God Code*.

Readers familiar with the V‑Universe know that all Earth‑related narratives (Note 1) fall within 1290‑301‑β96‑2 (Note 2).

Thus, the differences between Earths across each ADA (Note 3) are determined solely by causality.

Which means I can write this book from a fully historical perspective—

protected beneath the veil of an “alternate world.”

In the end, I simply want to leave something behind for those years that once existed.

My writing schedule is going to overload again…

but perhaps that is the fate of an obscure author.

Note 1: “Earth‑related stories” refer to the Earth within the story’s universe, not the present Earth.

Note 2: 1290‑301‑β96 refers to Universe No. β96‑301 under Main Plane 1290 (Second‑Tier Universe). Its ADA classification has not yet been disclosed.

Note 3: ADA — *The Axial Dimensional Arbor*, the highest structural archetype in the V‑Universe, the mother‑system of all “cosmi.” (See *Return to the Primordials*)
