This auxiliary chapter covers the side stories, crossovers and spin offs, which are not part of the main storyline even if they are referenced or used to drive the plot in some meaningful ways.
In all honesty, if I add those sagas to the main storyline, it is going to be like 20,000 chapters easily. It is not a joke. There is actually no need to add them to main storyline, as the main plot already has so many unique things.
When I mean crossovers, I do not mean crossover of my original stories. All my original stories actually exist in the same continuity (multiverse), so it cannot really be considered as crossovers in a sense. In fact, the main characters of other stories do play a critical part in some of the later arcs, as I make sure that no one can do everything by themselves.
A single person taking down the entire multiverse is beyond stupid, especially when the opposing side also have super intelligent people. This is not to mention it is a fucking Mary Sue.
Yes, even Max himself cannot do everything alone, and he is an Aspect, one of the strongest existences in the confine of my work.
Anyway, when I say crossovers, I mean crossover with other stories that I am not the actual author of, so in other word, it is just fanfiction.
Unless you have read up to chapter 164 of the main storyline, you will not get the background of how it happens naturally. That said, I will tell you here the general points, so you can understand.
There are no spoilers, at least I hope not.
1) Fictional Realities Exists in the Story. They are lower tier than the main reality where the main story is taking place, and they are created through people's creativity and imagination. They can be accessed and travelled to as long as you have the power or the mean to do so.
2) Maximilien Maxwell are interested in the technology and science of those realities. He is also a huge fan of some of those fictional realities. Therefore, in order to obtain all that wonderful sciences as well as technologies, he will have to invade them in a smash and grab sort of mission. By him, I don't really mean him. He has better things to do.
3) Not all missions are smash and grab, however. Some missions are just for fun, as Max is interested in those realities as a fan or similar. He also likes to learn about the human conditions, as it does open his eyes to what make human a human. He might also get the main girl in the end, but who knows.
That is pretty much the background you need to know to enjoy all the side stories, crossovers and spin offs. Things do get explained in those stories, so you don't get confused, but they can be treated fully as standalone sagas.
As for what powers Max has when he travelled to those realities, all of his powers, but not always all at the same time. This is because some realities don't need magic.
Below are some general powers or abilities that he has.
Time Manipulation – obviously. He is the Master of Time. Also allows him to teleport, but he can do it with the spatial manipulations.
Spatial Manipulation – allows Max to create portals, storages etc. There is a lot of applications to this ability, so I can go pages and pages about this.
Matter Manipulation – allows Max to reshape matters into useful form. This is purely technological. It is because of the nanomachines and micromachines at his disposal.
Thermal Manipulation – allows Max to manipulate heat and cold at will. This is granted to him as part of his biological augmentation. He rarely used it in the main story since there are better powers.
Electrical Manipulation – same as above.
Technology & Science – there are so much that I cannot be bothered listing them all here, but his tech is like super advance. Getting more advance as the storyline progresses. With his technologies, he can literally blast people with the power of the stars.
Max also has with him two of his Virtual Intelligences (VI).
They are Selene and Legion. Selene is basically his personal assistant while Legion is his military arm.
Neither are Artificial Intelligence for obvious reasons.
Since there are quite a lot of side stories, please check my profile to find them. I will list them here if I remember to. Anyway. Enjoy.
