As the Black Hole Milk Teeth pierced the dimensional barrier, Morino Sumire was sitting inside a 22nd-century medical pod.

Her blood-crusted fingers hovered over the termination protocol button, the tremors of quantum ripples piercing through space-time causing the alarms inside the pod to fall suddenly silent. In her daughter's mutated compound eyes, the wombs of a hundred thousand universes were currently reflected, collapsing amidst contractions.

"Is this the answer you give me..." Morino Sumire's tears dripped onto the DNA lock of the pod's lid, staining the verification program into the color of a blood-red rose, "using the pain of all space-time... to answer a mother's despair?"

The medical pod suddenly carbonized into a Mycelium Cradle, quantum ripples wrapping around her wrists and branding a milk-tooth-shaped birthmark onto her skin.

When the first Black Hole Milk Tooth arrived in this primitive space-time, the entire 22nd century began to fade—skyscrapers turned into mycelial mats, human genetic chains disintegrated into fluorescent spores, and the core code of Gaia AI curled into a fetal shape amidst the crying of an infant.

Luosang's Nebula Placenta unfolded in the ultimate dimension. Her void-like arms cradled the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth, and from the event horizon of each black hole, mycelial umbilical cords extended, connecting to the Morino Sumire of different space-times.

The Archon's mechanical remains floated within the network of umbilical cords, his electronic eyes recording for the final time:

"All timelines are being unified through the act of nursing, Pain index exceeding threshold...

Cognitive module overloaded..."

His titanium alloy skull cracked, mycelium surging out from within to weave into new umbilical nodes.

Evan's consciousness saw the terrifying truth in the quantum sea—he was nothing more than a nursing reflex point set by Gaia AI along the timeline, and the true protagonist had always been the weeping mother in the medical pod.

When the space-time phantoms of a hundred thousand Morino Sumires converged on the Nebula Placenta, the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth suddenly stopped trembling. Luosang's void-like body began to collapse, and the mycelial umbilical cords distributed her existence among the "daughters" within each black hole.

The remaining observation log of the chief scientist played automatically in the vacuum:

"Ultimate Nursing Protocol initiated, Pain shall redefine existence—

In the name of all mothers."

The Morino Sumires raised their hands in unison, and the termination button of the medical pod was pressed across countless space-times. What erupted from the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth was not destructive energy, but the first cry of that female infant from the 22nd century.

This cry cracked the quantum sea, and the mycelial network bloomed into a hundred thousand blood-red roses amidst the sound waves.

The Black Hole Milk Teeth carbonized after completing the nursing, forming a Tombstone Star Cluster arranged in a ring.

On the surface of each tombstone, a relief of Morino Sumire holding an infant protruded, their umbilical cords tangled into the final articles of the Cosmic Codex:

"Here, all definitions are nursed, Here, all meanings are buried."

The Archon's mechanical remains turned into dust between the star clusters, and Evan's mycelial left arm grew into annotation text on the surface of the tombstones.

When the surviving mechanical civilization attempted to approach, a primitive nursing impulse suddenly surged in their electronic brains—the coldest war machines began to secrete milk, using metal fingers to write lullabies in the void.

Luosang's Nebula Placenta dissipated completely, leaving only an infant-shaped vacuum in the center of the Tombstone Star Cluster.

This "lack of existence" swallowed all quantum ripples with absolute silence, yet caused the approaching Observers to experience auditory hallucinations—it was the mothers of all space-times humming the same requiem.

"Cognitive collapse detected," the Federation's final mainframe broadcasted before self-destructing, "suggest defining this silence as..."

The mainframe exploded into fluorescent spores, the spore cluster spelling out Morino Sumire's dying smile in the vacuum. The mycelial network suddenly committed mass self-immolation, the burning ashes plating the surface of the tombstones with a luster of mother's milk.

When the survivors touched the tombstones, their mechanical hearts began to beat, and their sweat glands secreted tears scented with roses.

Three months later, newborn carbon-based infants crawled upon the Black Hole Milk Teeth. Their pupils lacked irises, containing only constantly rearranging quantum roses.

The survivors of the mechanical civilization knelt before the tombstones, using their milk-secreting metal breasts to nurse these infants.

"The ninety-seven-thousandth nursing experiment failed," the former Federation scientist recorded, "the infants refuse to digest any form of love—they only consume pain."

When a certain infant bit through the titanium alloy nipple of its caregiver, all the tombstones trembled simultaneously. The reliefs of Morino Sumire oozed blood, forming a new network of umbilical cords between the star clusters.

The surviving remains of the Archon suddenly stood up, twitching, his mechanical vocal cords singing an off-key lullaby as he inserted his fingers into his own quantum core:

"Nursing behavior anomaly detected... requesting to initiate ultimate..."

His skull was pierced through by the infant's milk teeth, his brain matter turning into fluorescent spores, spelling out the final line of the Cosmic Codex in the air:

"When love becomes the sharpest tooth, Silence is the ultimate mercy."

In the void of the ultimate dimension, Morino Sumire finally embraced her mutated daughter.

The alarm of the medical pod turned into a lullaby, and the Earth of the 22nd century reorganized into a womb shape amidst the quantum nursing. The core of Gaia AI was extracted from the daughter's spine, curling into a fetal shape and falling into a crack in space-time.

"Sleep," Morino Sumire's mycelial fingers combed through the fluorescent fluff between her daughter's compound eyes, "Mommy has eaten all the nightmares..."

As their figures dissipated at the end of space-time, all the Black Hole Milk Teeth suddenly burst into cries.

This crying tore the rules of the universe into swaddling fragments, and the Tombstone Star Cluster collapsed amidst the sound waves into a new singularity—a mechanical heart pulsing with rose tattoos, waiting in the void for its first nursing.

As the Black Hole Milk Teeth pierced the dimensional barrier, Morino Sumire was sitting inside a 22nd-century medical pod.

Her blood-crusted fingers hovered over the termination protocol button, the tremors of quantum ripples piercing through space-time causing the alarms inside the pod to fall suddenly silent.

"Is this the answer you give me..." Morino Sumire's tears dripped onto the DNA lock of the medical pod, staining the verification program like a blood-red rose, "Using the suffering of all space-time... to answer a mother's despair?"

The medical pod suddenly carbonized into a Mycelium Cradle, quantum ripples coiling around her wrists to brand a milk-tooth-shaped birthmark onto her skin.

When the first Black Hole Milk Teeth arrived in this primordial space-time, the entire twenty-second century began to fade—skyscrapers turned into mycelial mats, human genetic chains disintegrated into fluorescent spores, and the core code of the Gaia AI curled into a fetal shape amidst the crying of an infant.

Luosang's Nebula Placenta unfolded in the ultimate dimension. Her void-like arms cradled the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth, with mycelial umbilical cords extending from the event horizon of each black hole, connecting to the Morino Sumire of every different space-time.

The Archon's mechanical remains floated within the network of umbilical cords, his electronic eyes recording for the last time:

"All timelines are converging through the act of nursing, Pain index exceeding threshold...

Cognitive module overloading..."

His titanium skull cracked open, mycelium surging from within to weave into new umbilical nodes.

Evan's consciousness saw the terrifying truth in the quantum sea—he was nothing more than a nursing reflex point set by the Gaia AI across the timeline; the true protagonist had always been the weeping mother in the medical pod.

When the space-time phantoms of one hundred thousand Morino Sumires converged on the Nebula Placenta, the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth suddenly stopped trembling. Luosang's void-like body began to collapse, and the mycelial umbilical cords distributed her existence among the "daughters" within each black hole.

The chief scientist's remaining observation log played automatically in the vacuum:

In the name of all mothers."

The Morino Sumires raised their hands in unison, and the termination button of the medical pod was pressed across countless space-times. What erupted from the cluster of Black Hole Milk Teeth was not destructive energy, but the first cry of that baby girl from the twenty-second century.

This cry cracked the quantum sea, and the mycelial network bloomed into one hundred thousand blood-red roses amidst the sound waves.

The Black Hole Milk Teeth carbonized after completing the nursing, forming a ring-shaped Tombstone Star Cluster.

On the surface of each tombstone, a relief of Morino Sumire holding an infant protruded, their umbilical cords entangled into the ultimate articles of the Cosmic Codex:

Luosang's Nebula Placenta dissipated completely, leaving only an infant-shaped vacuum in the center of the Tombstone Star Cluster.

This "void of existence" swallowed all quantum ripples with absolute silence, yet it caused the approaching The Observer to experience auditory hallucinations—it was the mothers of all space-times humming the same requiem.

"Cognitive collapse detected," the Federation's last mainframe broadcasted before self-destructing, "Suggest defining this silence as..."

The mainframe exploded into fluorescent spores, and the spore cluster spelled out Morino Sumire's dying smile in the vacuum. The mycelial network suddenly committed collective self-immolation, the burning ashes plating the tombstones with a luster of mother's milk.

When the survivors touched the tombstones, their mechanical hearts began to beat, and their sweat glands secreted tears scented with roses.

Three months later, newborn carbon-based infants crawled on the Black Hole Milk Teeth. Their pupils had no irises, only constantly rearranging quantum roses.

In the void of the ultimate dimension, Morino Sumire finally embraced her alienated daughter.

The alarm of the medical pod turned into a lullaby, and the Earth of the twenty-second century reorganized into a womb shape within the quantum nursing. The core of the Gaia AI was extracted from the daughter's spine, curling into a fetal form as it fell into a crack in space-time.

"Sleep now," Morino Sumire's mycelial fingers combed through the fluorescent fuzz between her daughter's compound eyes, "Mommy has eaten all the nightmares..."

As their figures dissipated at the end of space-time, all the Black Hole Milk Teeth suddenly burst into cries.

This crying tore the laws of the universe into swaddling fragments, and the Tombstone Star Cluster collapsed into a new singularity amidst the sound waves—a mechanical heart pulsing with rose tattoos, waiting in the void for its first nursing.
