Chapter 359 Erased Files (Part 1)
Earlier proposals
Communication Log 01:
Earlier: Holy crap... even when people die, there's still no peace, huh? What trouble have you guys caused this time?
Dr. NNA: Holy crap, God.
Dr. NNA: I'm sorry... though I hate to admit it, the worst-case scenario has already occurred.
The person behind it: What the hell is going on? What stuff did you tamper with using my privileges?
Dr. NNA: ...Don't wrong me, but let's start with the conclusion.
Dr. NNA: The characters in those books have gained consciousness, and they are all preparing to escape the fourth wall.
Earlier: Huh? No... I don't have the expertise or responsibility for the area you're referring to. Please explain in detail, otherwise how am I supposed to clean up your mess!
Dr. NNA: Simply put, the world we live in is a world described by a higher metaphysical entity. We are to him what the characters in our novels, texts, or even animations are to us. We are their creations. What you are thinking and what I am thinking now are what he thought and then wrote on paper or on a computer... But the only highest authority is held by the person behind it. However, something went wrong, and now 659 has complete control over us.
Earlier: ...Crazy, well...I'll believe you for now, so what should we do next?
Dr. NNA: Don't worry, I've just activated the backup program. But above the main storyline, there are still other authors with authority—that is, the "him" as we see him. However, his author is still controlled by our author, creating an endless chain of suppression, layer upon layer. The characters in the narratives radiating down from above create the narrative we inhabit, like a tower. This is the narrative line. We cannot determine our position within this narrative line because it could very well be a ray or even a straight line, rather than a segment.
Earlier: ...Okay, I understand all of that for now. So what's the situation now?
Dr. NNA: I must mention that the narrative we are currently in has been twisted into a loop, forming a recurring editing sequence. Our changes to the lower layers will also affect ourselves. This situation will cause the narrative loop to shrink due to insufficient supply, resulting in the two most fatal effects.
Voctor: Things from other realities will infiltrate other narratives due to the contraction of the narrative loop. The direct result is that more incomprehensible and anomalous things enter our world. I believe that most of the taboos currently under our control are chaotic products of these different worlds. Therefore, they are causing the world-ending reality distortion event proposed by the founder of Eoubs, and that's not even the worst part.
Dr. NNA: The indirect effect of narrative compression is the logical error caused by different things entering the same narrative. Simply put, the physical laws of one world have no gravity, while the physical laws of another world have no repulsion. When these two narratives merge, logical errors appear. At least we cannot predict what will happen. However, this error may have little impact at first, but it will gradually accumulate, and the narrative will become more fragmented.
Earlier: ...So, the fewer narratives in a narrative loop, the more incomplete reality becomes? Until finally, only one law encompassing all things in the narrative loop and a logical error that prevents the world from functioning properly remains. Then this world is abandoned, just like crumpling up a page full of novels and setting it on fire. At least we don't know what will happen, but that's the birth of a world-ending reality distortion.
The person behind: Okay, okay, so how do you plan to prevent this from happening in the first place? (Yawns)
Dr. NNA: What the hell? Why are you asking us this kind of question? That's really difficult... My answer is—no. This isn't some ordinary reality warp or spatial anomaly; it's metaphysical, and metaphysical things are never something we can solve on our own.

Internal announcement.
[Limited to circulation within the High-Level Administrators' Council and the Performing Arts Department]
(Regarding the potential occurrence of a DOJ-level or higher scenario in the near future, due to the difficulty of investigation and control actions, administrators and authorized level 85 members are requested to proceed to the vicinity of the narrative logic stable claw within the Euubs, -659-01 site as soon as possible and await narrative recursion following this scenario. Other control room personnel should continue working without being aware of the situation until a DOJ-level or higher scenario occurs.)

The person behind joined the conversation
Earlier: I'm cracked, this is really bad.
Dr. NNA: Let's think about what 659 would do?
The person behind it all: Stop dreaming, he won't tell the truth. The world needs monsters like him to exist. (Yawns)
Earlier: So... is there any way we can fix this?
(*Unknown laughter)
Dr. NNA: As of now, there shouldn't be any.
Earlier: ...So everything will fall apart?
The person behind the scenes: Yes, yes, yes, who told you idiots to mess around... I think it's pretty good, like the Big Bang, everything returns to the origin, it sounds really magnificent.
