Did Rudeus Cause the Mana Explosion? Fact-Checking the Teleport Incident Rumors
The intervention of the Playback Miko did not just ruin Fittoa. It broke the deterministic cycle that governed the entire universe. Dragon God Orsted had relived the same two-hundred-year loop hundreds of times in his quest to slay the Man-God, Hitogami. In every single previous loop across millennia, the Fittoa Region was peaceful, the Boreas family remained politically intact, and Rudeus Greyrat was never born. The stillborn infant Zenith carried had always died.
When the calamity struck in year K417, Orsted found himself navigating completely unmapped territory. Hitogami was equally blind-sided. The Man-God thrives on viewing future timelines to manipulate mortals, but Rudeus possessed a foreign soul completely immune to preordained fate. Hitogami did not orchestrate the explosion; he merely scrambled to exploit its chaotic aftermath. Both supreme beings were forced to react to an anomaly that fundamentally rewrote the historical trajectory of their world.
