Days 251-260

There is one universal law that remains unchanged across all realities: nothing ever truly disappears. Matter merely shifts its form, information transitions from one state to another, and energy perpetuates itself, creating cycles of transformation. This principle became the foundation of my latest research when the once-abundant Frozen Essences suddenly ceased to appear.

The disappearance of this resource is not a loss, but a challenge—a new puzzle laid before us by the universe. At first, we were granted the opportunity to study the phenomenon, amassing a considerable supply. But now, with the source cut off, we must seek alternative paths. The true question is no longer *how to gather more essences*, but rather: what exactly are we holding in our hands?

Each crystal left behind by monsters after their transformation is not merely a remnant of energy. It is a seed of potential, a pure matrix of encoded information, a vestige of a once-living being. Its structure suggests that we are not merely dealing with residual essence, but with something far greater—a blueprint of creation, capable of awakening and taking form under the right conditions.

At this point, the physics of the "IN" world begins to resemble concepts of quantum biology and the noosphere. If thoughts can be crystallized into gems, if Synapse Grades can transfer power, then why not entertain the idea that these essences hold more than just memories—they may contain an entire instruction set for recreating life itself.

If my hypothesis is correct, then with the right equipment and a proper energy catalyst, I may be able to grow a monster from an essence. This wouldn’t be mere resurrection—it would be an act of re-creation, an alchemical process where Frozen Essence serves as the vessel of information, while Gems or Diamonds act as the catalyst for awakening.

This is not just about summoning creatures. We stand on the brink of **engineering entire armies**—beings that could either become our greatest allies or our most formidable foes. There is no good or evil in nature—only balance. If we do not learn to control this process, the consequences could be unpredictable.

The only unanswered question is: how can we restore the flow of Frozen Essences? Will we have to wait until the next Lunar Year, a moment when the "IN" world's energy shifts and reconfigures itself? Or is this force still present, merely hidden deeper, awaiting a method yet undiscovered to awaken it outside of its natural cycle?

While I ponder the secrets of creation, our heroes continue their battles in another dimension—**the Phantom Arena**. The second season has concluded, and we are steadily unraveling its mysteries. With each new season, its structure seems to grow more fluid, more permeable to our presence.

I am beginning to realize that the Phantom Arena is not a static construct, but a living system that expands alongside our heroes. It follows a stochastic process where the growth of consciousness among its participants leads to the expansion of the reality itself. It is entirely possible that when the number of combatants reaches a critical threshold, new, undiscovered sections of the arena will reveal themselves.

This reinforces my theory that the world of "IN" is not a fixed system, but an evolving network, shaped by quantum observation. We are not merely studying it—we are actively shaping it with our presence, our progress, and our will.

But what fascinates me most is watching the heroes embrace their true strength. Their grades evolve, their bodies grow tougher, and their spirits become unbreakable. The Altar of Ages, an ancient mechanism of transformation, has become the primary catalyst of their evolution. It does more than empower heroes—it rewrites their existential code, forcing the very fabric of their being to adapt to higher states of existence.

And with each passing day, I can feel the "IN" world responding to these changes. The stronger we become, the deeper its secrets unfold before us. But the ultimate question remains:

What will become of us when we reach the very limits of power?

As I gaze upon the ever-growing might of our camp, I realize that we are not merely advancing. We are altering the very fabric of reality itself, triggering chain reactions that could reshape the destiny of this world—just like a single quantum particle shifting the state of an entire universe.
