[Limitatio Ficta is a consequence of an event that occurred in the past, this event will be presented later, for now, know that this consequence is about: the concepts in this fictional work, were exceptionally strengthened, that is, the consequences of the actions are lighter, a character who destroys the multiverse with ease, in this work, is only capable of destroying a small stone, intelligence capabilities also fit, someone capable of solving super complex problems, here would solve a simple 1+1 calculation]

Jonathan and his family walked away from the kingdom, without a pre-defined destination, but he was planning the details of the escape in his mind as they ran

Jonathan: how are the clones?

Jenny: they were all defeated and now... They've just been killed

Jonathan: so this guy can kill us all by himself... That's really bad

Jenny: so? What will we do?

Jonathan: Let me think, I'm not sure if he'll notice it's us or not, but if he does, we have to find a way to avoid being followed, let's choose a path that's not unknown, but not so well-known, a middle ground

Jenny: And where are we going to stay?

Jonathan: I know, let's take breaks on the road, on the Flosagri road, it's normally used by traders, so it's not used that much, besides it has some divergences along the way, which connect to other roads, we can use this to be even less detectable

Jenny: the best place for us to shelter for now would be, it would be the most distant kingdom, even though information travels quickly, that kingdom is more disconnected from the world and the language is totally different

Jonathan: it makes sense, besides, I know how to speak the language there, because of my work, besides that, it's a great place to catch a Cruise out of this planet

[Cruise is the name given to models of ships, used to go from one planet to another, having a system very similar to airplanes, cargo Cruises made only to send resources from one planet to another and the transport Cruise, made to take people from one planet to another, in addition to the unique Cruises, made to carry only one person or five at most, they are normally much faster because of this. War Cruises are usually slower due to the weight of an armored layer, as the name suggests, these Cruises are embedded with exclusive weapons for attack and domination, in addition to going against other War Cruise models]

John begins to pack his things, with the intention of taking a Cruise to Jonathan's planet, to warn him of the situation that would be terrible in the future, he did not know that his warning would come too late

Two hours after the fight in the middle of the kingdom...

Jack walks to the king's castle, when he arrives he enters the throne room, facing Alexander.

Jack: where is Metal Hirotome?

Alexander: I don't know, he said he was going to see someone

Jack: are you lying by any chance?

Alexander: no! I know very well how bad this could be for me

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

Jack: That sounds doubtful to me, anyway, when he comes back, tell him I've finished the job

Jack walks through the kingdom towards another room, in the dungeon he leaves his double-bladed sword on top of a table, then sits on a chair, then he looks at a mirror in the room, his eyes glazed over at a kind of chip that was implanted a little in front of his ear

Jack: leave... Right?... What was that thing doing? I wonder... Should I ask... About who I am? No, not for now, I don't know that thing well, I don't know what kind of reaction it might have, but for now... I have another concern

Jack gets up and goes to a bathroom, where he wets his face and starts talking as he walks through the dungeon that had become a mini-house.

Jack: I feel like it was too easy, for the man recognized as the strongest, it shouldn't be so easy to kill him, but if he ran away... Wait

Jack leaves the dungeon and goes to the huge library in one of the castle's rooms. There he starts looking for books until he finds the one he wants.

Jack: Yes... So there is such a skill, unlike conventional clones that, when generated, divide the user's strength proportionally. There is a single clone model that works identically to a human being, with the effects of being torn apart, so... They are still alive. The only flaw mentioned here is that there is, yes, a decrease, however small, in the clone's strength.

Jack leaves the book back and walks to the dungeon for a turn, where he starts to get dressed.

Jack: I can't let an opportunity to face an opponent like that pass by.

The night begins to fall, the night sky is now strong. Jonathan and his family stop at an inn. Jenny performs magic to avoid recognition by the others, then they enter the inn.

Jonathan: I'm worried that they might be able to track us down

Jenny: That would be unlikely, but it's not like it's impossible, by the way, how did this start?

Jonathan: I don't know! Alexander only said "sorry" to me, a simple SORRY! Bastard... And I still considered him a friend of our FAMILY!

Jonathan closes his fist and almost punches the wall, but stops himself in the middle

Jenny: calm down, dear, this is the moment when we must be patient

Jonathan: I know, but this whole situation is really frustrating

Jenny: I understand, but for now, focus on the objective here

Jonathan: right...

Jenny: we can even leave this galaxy, but if they are really committed to killing us, sooner or later they will find us

Jonathan: changing identities would be difficult, I think the most obvious solution for now is the constant use of infiltration magic, but that would be suspicious, only laymen cannot detect it

Jenny: I understand that, so we should go after some artifact with that effect

Jonathan: but until we find it... Would there be time?

Jenny: the odds, for now, are still not very against us

Jonathan: other than that, I worry about John too, could he have been attacked?

Jenny: You know how that guy is not weak, he can handle himself and I don't think they would have another super soldier who was as strong as that man.

Jonathan: That makes sense, now... Are we really going out tonight?

Jenny: The sooner the better, but the kids are tired, we need to get at least some sleep so we can leave faster.

In the Kingdom of Arcis Mundi, news that the destructive battle for the kingdom was actually a terrorist attack by Jonathan and his family and that they were a threat to the kingdom due to their strength, this information reaches Jonathan's inn in the morning, where they were reported and so Jack arrived at the scene.

Jack: You were very careless, this is regrettable

Jack sends spears of fire towards the inn, which shatters and collapses, but Jenny had prepared a shield, which defends the surprise attack well. Jonathan draws his sword and goes towards Jack, he tries to cut his abdomen, but Jack retreats and punches Jonathan's face, then executes a knee to his chin, but Jonathan spins and elbows Jack in the back, the two then move away, Jenny sends several beams of piercing light at Jack, who dodges the attacks with difficulty.

Jonathan: Why are you doing this?

Jack: Do you really expect me to answer?

Jonathan: Just... Answer, you piece of shit

Jack: You're too angry, don't you think? But since you asked nicely... My name is Jack, if you're going to notice...

Jack puts his finger on the chip on the side of his head. Before going after his family, Jack reviewed Metal Scorpius's path once more and discovered a few things

Jack: Something you should ask yourself is "how did someone as strong as me exist?" Well... He shouldn't have existed, I myself just discovered everything I'm going to tell you

Jonathan: Tell me at once...

Jonathan's brow was furrowed, shaking with anger, Jack was calm as he started walking in circles.

Jack: Calm down, anyway, you didn't see it, but there's some kind of metallic dinosaur that talks, it's probably a robot that someone made and transferred its own consciousness to that thing, the same thing that created me, I'm a kind of son of yours

Jonathan: Oh? What do you mean?

Jack: He used his blood and empowered it to create me and be able to generate someone strong enough to face you head on, in this case, I left, besides, I already imagined, even before the report, that you were here, because I think that neither do you, any escape route you took, I would know, but that scrap seems to have been lost, this chip in my head is used to control me, but I noticed that it hasn't responded for a while.

Jack rips out the chip and crushes it with his hand, throwing the remains on the floor.

Jack: Now I'm independent, and what I want to do now is defeat you.

Jonathan: Why?!

Jack: I appreciate strong opponents, defeating them is gratifying, understand that I only want to face someone powerful, and you... Are the perfect opponent.

Jonathan: Does that justify killing me and my entire family?!

Jack: I know it doesn't, but I only feel complete when I kill my opponent.

Jonathan: You miserable...
