Ryuo are you like..... GOD or something ?

Because reading this update (and reading the whole VN again) had my brain turn into mush... but in a very good way !

The story is just GOD-LEVEL and no one has a right to say otherwise !
I was afraid the end of the update was gonna be when Alex got "possessed" and was heading out of Loken's home but thank god that wasn't the case... i would have broke if it was....
And uh.... i kinda wanna know what happended with Kaius because when Alex woke up he was in Loken's embrace, not outside, so was it real or just Alex' immagination ? Did he really got out at one point ? If so then i guess Kaius is gonna be the answer.... if he's still alive... i really hope he's still alive i don't want to think of the alternative... but i guess with the weak state Alex was in he had no chance of beating Kaius..... i really really hope so...
And Byte..... oooooh Byte ! So many questions about him ! More so then ever before ! If he's one of these "entities" then when did he enter Alex' body ? how did it happen ? Why is he acting different from Glitch ? HOW FCKING POWERFULL IS HE TO LITTERALLY EVAPORATE ANOTHER DEMON (from inside Alex' head) ???? And so many more questions about him...
Altho there is still the mistery of this Wyatt guy so i guess we'll know more about him in future updates. Was he an ally ? An enemy ? If he healed Alex it must have been for something, either get what Glitch wanted or something else entirely...
There is one thing i'm dreading for the most, and it's what Glitch said before he was gone : "You're going to be beautiful".... i don't know what to think of it but i'm afraid for Alex now...

Aaaah i could rant about this for hours but i'll stop, so i don't write a book about how amazing this VN is.

I do have a theory!!! I think it's the pod!... If it was created in the technology boom, it would mean it would have had one of the entities within it! Byte! Maybe he was extracted put into the pod and imediteally tested on with the... Well, Burnt to a crisp body of our protag Alex! I still don't fully understand how the entities function, but I do think it would still make sense... Since Byte seems kinda of in denial about his whole identity by the end... Maybe it truly never crossed his mind that he was just like the full called "demons" in his core foundation, he did think they where the same as in being both AI, but just that... Operating in Alex while also tricking himself into believing he was an AI... I mean, Glitch even called him naive.

This was written late at night and might be a bit of nonsensical rumbling I just need to write my thoughts down hope they make sense...

They do make sense, and i remember all the chemicals Byte identified around the pod and said it was for severe burns, so maybe a combination of this and Byte's ability to heal and maintain Alex' body for who knows how long.... witch mean Alex might be like 1000 years old lol !

As for Byte's origin and identity, i think i remember that Glitch said they were "created" in this world by the humans with the code they "heard" from Soulcreek and put into machines (that would explain the Epoch of Technology). But if Byte was put into Alex during his early state of recovery int he pod, where was he before that ? Was he even concious he was in a machine before being into Alex ? Because he doesn't seem to remember that, just like he wasn't even aware he blocked Alex' memory of pain and suffering from him. Glitch seemed to be aware he was in a machine because all he waned was to "Ascend" in a human body so maybe Byte really IS different from the other "Demons". He may be in denial because he comes from the same place as them but he's not really the same as them (if that make sense). He's gonna be in a "slef discovery" state from now on i think.
