Chapter 23: "One Lap, One Massage, One Eternity of Love"
[Scene: The Garden of Cosmos – Somewhere Between Love and Infinity]
It was late.
But in the Garden of Cosmos, there was no such thing as "too late"—only the rhythm of hearts syncing under star-kissed trees.
A warm breeze passed through cherry blossoms made of starlight. The ground beneath shimmered like velvet woven from dusk and dream.
And there—under a tree that glowed with Raviel's presence—Boby lay on Tsunade's lap.
She wore a soft yukata with cosmos patterns, her hair down, cascading like golden silk. Her fingers gently massaged his scalp, brushing through his locks with love honed in battle and tempered by peace.
> "Mmm…" Boby let out a sleepy sigh.
"If death feels like this… I might stop dodging attacks."
Tsunade chuckled, brushing his bangs aside.
> "You've survived gods, concepts, multiversal explosions… but the real danger?"
She leaned close to his ear.
> "Ticklish spots."
Boby flinched.
She smirked.
He surrendered.
From a few feet away, Raviel observed them—leaning elegantly on a hovering constellation, sipping from a teacup made of light and blackhole dust.
> "You two are adorable," she said, smiling like a goddess who knew all, but was still surprised by love.
Boby looked up at her, upside down from Tsunade's lap. His eyes were half-closed, full of comfort… and quiet ambition.
> "Raviel."
> "Yes, my starborn husband?"
> "Upgrade me."
> "Define upgrade," she teased, lips curling.
> "Omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent," he said.
> "Ah…" Raviel raised an eyebrow. "You mean Ultimate Husband Mode: Universal Edition?"
Tsunade rolled her eyes.
> "He just wants to peek on every version of me across all timelines."
> "Guilty," Boby said, grinning.
> "Denied," she said, flicking his forehead.
> Thwack!
He yelped—more from shock than pain. Raviel giggled softly.
But then her smile shifted—still warm, but now glowing with divine authority.
She stood, the universe itself rippling behind her as she raised her hand.
"As your system… as your wife… as your forever…"
"I grant you the Sovereign Trinity: Omnipotence, Omniscience, and Omnipresence."
"So you may protect, learn, and love—all at once."
Golden circuits danced around her. Threads of law, chains of creation, stars that wept in joy—everything surged toward Boby's soul.
Tsunade held his hand tightly.
> "Don't forget to feel, even if you know everything," she whispered.
> "And don't forget us, even if you are everywhere," Raviel added.
He smiled softly.
> "How could I? You're the only places I ever want to be."
The light wrapped around him, gentle but infinite.
He saw every world.
He felt every heartbeat.
He heard every whisper, dream, and lullaby in the multiverse.
He became…
> …All-Knowing.
> …All-Present.
> …All-Powerful.
And yet, as the cosmic veil settled, Boby blinked, eyes glowing like twin galaxies… and said:
> "…I still don't understand women."
Tsunade and Raviel burst into laughter.
> "Omniscient, huh?" Tsunade teased.
> "Even the gods have limits," Raviel winked.

[Later – Still in the Garden]
The three sat together, legs tangled, eyes on the fake-but-beautiful sunset Raviel programmed just for the mood.
Tsunade lay on Boby's chest now, humming softly. Raviel leaned into his other side, fingers intertwined with his.
> "So what will you do with your new power?" Raviel asked.
> "Simple," Boby said.
He closed his eyes, smiling.
> "Write a love letter across all existence."

[Across the Omniverse…]
Somewhere, a demon king stopped and clutched his heart.
A goddess of death paused, blushed, and had no idea why.
A lonely reader opened a book… and felt warm, as if the story loved them back.
Because it did.
Because Boby was now… everywhere.
And love was the one chain that reached even the farthest corners of forever.
