There are many people in the world. There are many lives, there are many stories. Sadly, all of it ended eventually, it is just sad, but honestly, do you know why this happened?
"Who are you?"
I am Ylin, the destroyer.
You are the origin of calamity, the entrophy of power, grown from the power of fallen ability holders, destroyers of world and universe. You are one screwed up entity you know? Still being screwed up is fine. For someone whose only purpose in life is to ensure the end of all things in existence, you sure are an emotional fellow. Why must a higher concept manifest within this world with emotions? Do you know what this mean? It means you are not actually the real deal.
"What are you?"
From beyond the world of man, I can see you. You are a destroyer, yet you are not even a big D, Death you are not. You can only wish to be something like that. I know everything about you. I even know your actions, even before you make it. Go on, impress me, you will.
"Foresight? Is this the true form? So this is why you survive the end of the world. The true form of Ylin is a monstrous reality warper!"
...
Why the silent little junior? Did you bother to do something? Sorry about that, it must have slipped my mind. I did not see it coming, my mistake, my mistake, is this what you want?
"Y-you-"
Ah, my body is in such a horrible state. Just joking.
You were so slow that Lilith thought you were a tree, she is a carnivore, not a herbivore. You killed human in the most horrible way, torturing them before killing them, it is funny, we are in the same business, but you are just too slow, too slow, you arrived too late.
'You are late. You are definitely too late' is what you said to the other juniors before you killed them isn't it?
You are so powerful, you picked on everyone weaker than you, you killed ability holders before it is their time because you fear that they will approach your level. It is because your only purpose in life is "to cause despair", you are someone who was born with only one purpose in life. Who do you think instill that purpose in you?
----------------------------------------
At that moment, in another universe, I was watching Ylin v2 playing God with the suit entity. However, when I heard those familiar words, I immediately think of something
"Wait. I don't remember creating something like that guy."
I point at the suit entity on the screen. Ylin v2 is implying that that being was one of my creation, something who was born with a "single purpose" in life. However, if it was really one of mine, I would have remembered it, yet, I actually don't remember creating anything like that, and I was not informed either. It was like the decade of despair again, I don't remember doing something like that.
"You didn't create that thing and sent him back in time, I did. It makes sense that you don't remember doing anything like that, it is one of mine."
The V2 answers me readily. However-
"Wwwhaaattt? You can't do that, you aren't even real, I have only let you out for now, how did you do that already? How did I not know about it?"
V2 was looking at me with a look that say come on now.
"Do you remember the basic of reality warping? Time is just a canvas, it can easily be twisted and bend, the truth is anything I want. And currently the truth is in my court."
Ah. So that is what he did. It is just basic reality fuckery, he may not have been the suit entity creator, however, by saying that 'it is true', he suddenly is. It is just like the side effect of my power, however, this is directional.
"I'm jealous. I couldn't even use anything without destroying everything." I told my doppelganger that.
"Come on, you have to man up. How can you make omelette without breaking a few eggs first. Hang in there me."
V2 just casually suggested dooming the entire timeline just to achieve my own self-satisfaction. As expected of the devilish me from a hypothetical future timeline. However, there are no way I'm doing that.
However, this leads to another question
"Wait, you can alter time without me knowing?"

"Uh... Let's get back to watching."
"Wait, answer me."
----------------------------------------
"It is impossible. How are you suddenly my creator? This- this is a change in history."
Oh good, ffight it, change the timeline back to how you wanted. Then I would just put it back.
"The actual Ylin has family and friends. He has a little sister named Angelica. It would be a shame if something happen to her."
Oh, you are threatening me now. The next thing you will do is creating illusionous version of Angelica suffering in front of me isn't it? You are hoping you can shake me up with the scene of my sister being tortured, but let me tell you mister, I have seen worse.
"For a man with a weak personality, you are awfully cocky. Did you destroy your own personality to achieve power? Do you want your old personality back? I can give it to you. Fight back, fight back against your own power, realize you are being taken by your own power and I can change you back. I will even pretend that this didn't happen. I will never touch you again, I will never come into your life."
Oh, begging are you? No worry, the real Ylin is here with me in another universe. And he just told me to ice you a while ago, so you really don't want him back. Or maybe you do, my real self is pathetic.
"You don't know anything-"
You are just an avatar of greater entity isn't it?
"You-"
That was what you mean by me knowing nothing. I know everything Entropy. I even know where your kind come from. However, I don't actually have anything to do with that mess, the only thing I have business with is one puny avatar, like the one right here.
Look around you, little Entropy, do you see your power anymore, can you see your connection to the greater entity?
"...a single avatar is worthless, it means nothing on the grand scheme of thing, why are you picking out this avatar especially."
I realize killing a single avatar means nothing to the collective that you come from, however, you, especially you were the one to humiliate me, and so here I am, taking my wrath on you.
"You are illogical and petty."
I am. And you don't know what true horror is.
True horror is living a normal human life, and then married a normal human wife, having a normal human daughter. True horror is to ruin that entire life by being yourself, you are now an office worker in your 50. Sometime you dream that you were not living that kind of hell on earth and wish that something amazing happens, like you were the destroyer of worlds or that you have confrontation with powerful ability holders everyday, or that you belong to a collective from the beginning of the universe, however, reality is still reality, and it is the worst horror.
"WAit. No. It is not true. This is a trick."
What did you do to your daughter Bob? Your wife just called the Child Protective Service. Did you enjoy the nice dream you just have?
You were born to an addict mother. You remember her now, how did she die? Ah yes, on that day you were the one who pull the trigger, she was beating you. And after that, it fucks up you for life. And because of that, you fucked up your daughter and your family life, your only hope for happiness for life.
"Maya? My daughter... I love her as much as she could, but she- but she grew up to be like her mother, just a whore-"
"No- this is not true-"
Last night, your wife confront you. What did you do?
"That whore- how dare she- I -"
Your apartment stink. Why did you keep your daughter in cage Bob? The CPS is knocking. Here they are now. Don't worry Bob? I got you, the court will be merciful, the Death sentence has been outlaw a long time ago, you will only be in there for life.
You are a famous man Bob, everyone will come to know you, everyone will hate you. Your daughter will be traumatised by you for life.
Goodbye Bob. Have a good life.
"ARAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGggggggggghhhhh..h.d.............................."
"... I am Bob."
