Magic and technology were the subjects of this test. No matter how one looked at a God of Dark Magic like Chthon, he had nothing to do with technology. Even if he called himself the God of Technology, it was useless; he was automatically placed on Adam's side.
He was a good friend Daisy had forcibly assigned to Adam.
"Hm? What is this...?" Adam arrived a little later than the others. Looking at Chthon beside him, draped in black robes with his features obscured, he was somewhat bewildered. What a powerful person. What is going on? The assessment hasn't even begun, and my reinforcements are already here?
As the winner of the previous two rounds, Daisy had the right to speak first this time. In truth, the path had already been decided. They had no choice at all.
"I will tolerate friends who use magic, but future development will certainly belong to technology. The future is an age of technology." Daisy spoke loudly as Adam examined Chthon and the God of Dark Magic kept trying—and failing—to contact his true body.
"...You are right. I hope you will continue contributing to the development of the universe." Following the principle of balance, after Chthon boarded Adam's chariot, a helper also arrived on Daisy's side. A true friend—the projection of Eternity, leader of the Five Elders of the Universe!
Perhaps, when the Marvel world of the future discovered that technology could not reach the end either, Eternity would enter the Ninth Epoch and return to magic, or pursue a new path.
The developmental processes of the world and civilization shared a similar pattern: both rose in spirals. But they also differed.
The development of the world was far too vast a proposition, so vast that even Eternity did not know what to do.
