Terminology Glossary & Index

A/N: This is a chapter that will be constantly updated over time for readers over time to keep up with the Terminologies used. There will not be major spoilers in this Glossary and Index.

Gates – The physical manifestation of the Warping Phenomena caused by the temporal fields of the timelines. They caused rifts to temporarily open up within each timeline's universe, connecting them temporarily until the Nexus of the Gate is destroyed. [Honestly, they could've used something else, but hey, who doesn't like portals?]

Player – A human who has reached a certain level, gained a certain level of achievements / traits / ???, allowing them to be recognized by the System as someone worthy of stepping into the Towers that suddenly appeared in 2061. [Like Wonplem! Who is Wonplem? Go read the synopsis, bomboclaat.]

Towers of Worlds – Appearing in the form of an extremely large Gate in the centre of many different countries in the world, the Towers are a special trial space existing within the gaps of the multiverse's ever-expanding void. [Huh, whoever orchestrated this might be a douchebag]

System – A supposedly hyper-advanced artificial intelligence network consisting of many AIs, serving as 'guides' to Players. Every single Player's status window is connected to one such AI, who will assist them in their journey. [That's me! And not gonna lie, all my other forms are much inferior to me.]

Status Window – The display of stats and other information of a specific individual. Can be activated with a single direct mental thought, popping up as a hologram in front of the user. Can be interacted with physically or mentally, but only by the individual of that specific window. [Yup, I'm a rectangle. For now...]

Guilds/Clans/Factions/Coalitions/etc. – A large group of Rankers who band together to achieve higher social standing through their collection of highly talented individuals. Most of the strongest humans in the world are in one such group, but there are exceptions. [They all just sound like scams to me...]

International Workforce Association – An extremely special organization that does not discriminate against one's power, and offers education and training to help people get stronger. Also offers a variety of jobs many common people can take on. [Ahem. Democracy is made by the people, of the people, and for the people. But the people... are retarded.]

Outerworlds – A collective term for universes and timelines beyond our own. These worlds could consist of simply humans from a different time, perhaps monstrous species, or possibly even races that people believed to be only existing within fantasies. [We put truck-kun out of a job. Yes. Yes we did.]
