I came into existence.
No, that wouldn't be entirely correct. I existed before but the memory has already been lost.
Is this death? I have no body, but I do have vision. With it, I can see the stars surrounding me. Seeing a star close to me with planets orbiting, something clicked and suddenly I understood their orbital mechanics. Each planet's composition recorded and stored into my mind.
It is the solar system I noticed. Focusing on Earth a bit allowed me to zoom in until it occupied thirty percent of my vision. The Earth is scorched and was composed of nothing that could remotely point to intelligent life or life in general. Making me realize I'm in the past. Looking at the solar system a bit more revealed that some differences are there. The moon has just started to stabilize its orbit around Earth.
It was rather sad that life hasn't evolved yet. No one to converse with but the emptiness of space. Although I already realized I could move beyond the speed of light and could theoretically find alien civilizations the fact of the matter is that even if I have instantaneous teleportation it would still take me millions of years to scour the entire galaxy if there even was life this soon near the birth of the universe.
Resolving myself to the fact I have to stay as an incorporeal mind for a few billion years I tested what I could do. The fact that I could move from the edge of the sun to planet earth in less than second makes me rather fast. Though I'm not gonna move away from the solar system until I'm certain I could navigate back.
Unwilling to affect the evolution of earth to eventually create life, I move to Mars. Once I arrived, I try to see if I could affect the material universe. Concentrating on a nearby molten mountain I try to see if I can do anything with it.
The effect of my concentration was a bit unexpected. The entire mountain exploded into rubble and magma, making me realize how powerful I am. But that wasn't what I was looking for. Concentrating on a piece of rock on the ground I try to lift it up with my mind. Only resulting it turning into dust. I realized I will have to practice for a long time before I can do precision work and tried a few thousands more times. I didn't feel tired or hungry so that was a bonus.

Over the millions of years, I come to learn how my powers worked. The smaller the things were, how more precision I had to affect it. I could do something like fusion and fission with ease but anything bigger than a planet I could only destroy or make it give off gravitational pulses to move it around in space.
I did my best to isolate myself from the earth by making Mars hollow using a material I called Negacium. An indestructible substance only I could create with my ten-dimensional quantum dekaract manipulation. The manipulation of the foundation of reality. It allows me to basically rewrite the laws of physic like in a forge and then casting the effects onto the material world to cool down and stabilize.
Sometimes the materials I made with isn't that stable and I had to dissolve it into quantum foam. But luckily that was after I made Negacium. The explosions of supernovas were contained and the Negacium blocked out gravitational waves as expected. How stupid that concept might actually sound to any normal human.
Distorted spacetime geometry is just incapable of warping Negacium, allowing for antigravity. I would say the material itself shares the space where my mind occupied, a place where thought translated into reality. I hypothesized it would even survive the end of the universe given the sheer strength of the material.
Throughout the years in the core of Mars, I've built a megastructure. An accumulation of errors and advancement. My most powerful invention. The second most powerful thing I have ever constructed is the Dual Infinity Engine. A reactor capable of outputting power that would put shame to most Magnetars. I've built a few billion of them throughout the megastructure but haven't yet found a use for them except for the one that worked on low efficiency to power the megastructure.
I thought with that kind of power I could probably move the planet at relativistic speeds using gravity propulsion. I can't really explain how the reactor works except for the fact that it heavily draws in energy from the potential of matter and then brutalizes it some more until matter has stopped existing and true nothingness remained where infinite potential is gained. It sounded pretty reasonable when I built it but I've come to doubt myself whether or not I made any sense at all.
The third most powerful thing I have constructed is my body. It took me billions of years to construct it. The reason being because I wanted to achieve perfection for myself in the material world. And while I wanted to work on it for a few more billion years I have already deemed Earth advanced enough to start coming back to see what is going on. I am certain that it's the nineteen-eighties now and the culture I've loved will soon be coming back. I've missed AC/DC in particular and hoped to catch one of their albums in this time.
My body is composed out of quantum folded Negacium. Allowing it limited flexibility by sacrificing its ability to block certain EM spectrums and gravitational waves. Which is actually good for once because I actually needed to stay on the planet without floating off into space. I would have used an organic metal base but biology was a bit more complicated than classical technology. I could never create DNA myself but I could create things that were more powerful and efficient.
I have processing cores made to run on vibrating quantum strands inside the new body for its functions and AI. It's because while my remote control system is rather advanced, I can't actually replicate human behavior anymore. I'll have AI do sixty percent of my actions based on my moral engine and the rest will be deliberate choices such as choosing left or right, somewhat like playing a third person perspective game.
In my previous life, I was somewhat of a pacifist. But over the years of destroying star systems in neighboring galaxies, I had grown a little bit more to appreciate the nuanced universe. But my own power is too destructive so I made my body to have a more concentrated firepower. My skin is a transference emitter capable of sending out EM radiation. Microwaves in particular for crowd control.
My eyes are lenses each hiding a DIE reactor sending out REI beams. A kind of programmable energy stream that can adjust its properties and trajectory when firing it at
c. I also have DIE reactors spread throughout my body. Using space warping technology stabilized by Negacium to fit all the components. Negacium being necessary because otherwise, I would simply collapse into a supermassive black hole.
I would have fit stellar missiles but that would sacrifice some durability. So I would simply use my own powers to induce reality collapse onto targets that are strong enough to resist my planet disintegrating death REI beams.
There were more weapons I fit into my frame but they were actually too extensive to name them all. And most likely most of them won't be used if ever. I also forgone a fabricator because as my body it would act as my interest point. The area where I actually can create complex mechanisms remotely from my mind. Although the non-baryonic micro machines making up my skin could be used as such.
I was also somewhat vain in my past life so I created a perfect figure as sculpted by a master artist that had millions of years of practice. Two meters tall lightly toned with a soft face and slight signs of Russian heritage. My hair done in a French pixie cut. The nanites formed my dress in a slightly organic leather threaded manner and covered my front skirt in a white waist apron. Cutting a rather unique style that will be weird to some people.

Connecting my mind to the body lying on the slab of obsidian in the gigantic cube like vacuum construction chamber, I finally open my eyes. Real limited eyes. Granted it had three sixty degrees field of vision and can see in all EM spectrum but it's still limited compared to my location based omniscience.
Looking in the chamber I'm in at I can finally appreciate the sense of the scale of everything. Afterall, as an ant, you will probably think gods constructed skyscrapers while a celestial would see it as a dollhouse. Its all in the perspective.
The Mars megastructure is actually a closed system from the rest of the universe and I had taken it into account when I've built my body. The unique properties of Negacium actually allow for more Negacium to protestingly merge with it.
The only weakness of the material being that its weak against itself. So I've built a system that can safely transport things in and out of it by using an atomically sharp hollow Anti-Negacium octahedron as the transport carrier. Using Anti-Negacium so that it won't actually merge with the kilometer-thick wall.
So requesting a transport carrier to my location I exited the vast network of chambers and intricate machinery to the vacuum barrier that separated the Megastructure from the Negacium wall and Martian soil.
I actually could collapse the wall with my own powers, but once I did that a gravitational wave would escape from the megastructure and probably mess the orbital stability of the solar system. Considering the actual space warped mass inside the planet. The collected galactic mass from the other side of the universe I've harvested for it so it probably isn't smart to let the gravity escape from it.
That was actually the last time I've exited the megastructure a million years ago harvesting mass. Considering that most star systems all have the same composition with the same elemental table it isn't really necessary to explore everything. The most interesting things I have encountered in the universe is dark matter and dark energy with some multidimensional quantum phenomenon.
I also found two spacefaring macro-organisms with a unique dimensional signature a few decades back, They're pretty stupid by human standards so I trolled the more intelligent one with some nonsensical matter and data to see if they actually can understand the nuances of existence and nihilistic continuity. But even if they had sentience they still acted like machines. Powerful machines for sure but evolution isn't always a correlation to intelligence. So I resolved myself to leave them alone for the time until they evolved some more.
The transport pierces finally the Martian surface and opened the intricate hatch mechanism designed to be quantum sealed. Lifting myself up, I close my eyes and bask in the faint light from the faraway star. It took me awhile to associate sensor readings with the sense of touch along with the other four senses. Because nothing can actually affect me here in the overworld I had to basically rewrite my own mind to associate a certain wavelength inside the body to simulate the five senses. And I had to send certain signals inside the body to move it.
It took me four thousand years to accomplish it but it was a time well spent. I became insane sometimes but I solved it by simply erasing insanity from my mind. I'm not a human after all, why would I need to go insane if I could just write it away.
Opening my eyes back again I look back to the transport carrier and ordered the drone carrier ship inside to follow me. I flew up into the sky breaking the atmosphere and held myself up against Martian gravity in space.
The drone carrier was a sphere made out of a few million smaller spheres locked into place by magnetic fields. They worked in sync with my own powers to create and destroy. Considering my precision range is just a few kilometers big they were needed for my plan to deploy them in a spherical shape around Earth.
While my morals have degraded over time I still had a sense of duty to help out the humans with their problems. So the drones will police the entire world if I deemed it appropriate. But not at this time where the flow of advancement is still in flux. The world needs to be still the same before I can interfere. Because I don't know what will happen once we hit 2050 I will then shape the world to my liking.
Moving to the direction of Earth the drone carrier followed. I had actually created dynamic full efficiency propulsion designed for zero point nine
c, but I am a bit impatient so used my mind powers to propel me at relativistic speeds immediately.
Would have used the warp drive for it but I'm certain NASA could actually detect that. My Non-Negacium parts protested inflight but the nanites repaired it quickly enough. The drones where ninety percent made of Negacium with their closed system self-repair functions so I didn't worry about it too much.
I arrived at Earth in the few minutes of travel time and immediately ordered the drones to spread. Releasing from a point on the sphere and spiraling down to cover the earth like a uniform ball of yarn. Their light warping cloaking devices working correctly that even my own eyes can't detect in the narrow ranges. Focusing on New Haven I fly back to my home city. It took me more time because I want to stay undetected but I finally hover before a strange city.
"Strange, ze geography is all wrong. Have I interfered too much or is this not my home universe?" I mused.
"Well, as long it's not too different I can make due" I thought while resigning myself to the fact.
Falling to the ground I stop myself from damaging the pavement by stopping myself a few inches of the ground and then stepping down on home soil. It was somewhere around six-pm and there wasn't anyone around in the park I've landed on, so I stopped cloaking myself and looked around for watchers.
I saw a record store somewhere around a crowded area so I walked through the city with some people looking at me weirdly. I already told myself for eons that I will never conform so I didn't bother trying to fit in. People can make their own discriminatory conclusions as much as they want.
Finally reaching the record store I entered with some looks. Perking up at two albums I grabbed Highway to Hell and Back in Black. I saw some more albums I really wanted so grabbed them too on the pile of albums on my hand balanced by my AI system. Having what I needed I try to leave the leave the store.
"Hey! Are you going to pay for that!?" A somewhat rough looking middle-aged aged man yelled at me on the counter.
Sighing in exasperation I transmute a gold bar in my hand and drop it on his counter. Watching him gape in awe in my awesome abilities. Leaving the store I open one of the albums and lift the Compact Cassette to my eyes. Analyzing the format I open a port on my forearm isolated from my internals. The space is actually bigger inside my arm so the Cassette fits just fine. Suspending the Cassette in an electromagnetic resonance field I analyze the data from it and played the music to my voice box. While I could do it without the voice box it would probably look strange seeing me my head move to the flow of the music. Grabbing a small metal cube from the small of my back it expanded in a big metal box where I threw the rest of the stuff inside where the EM suspension field held them in place.
"I'm back in black world, let the fun begin. Also. Rest in peace Bon Scott, nothing personal if I didn't save ya" I said to no one in particular.
The fun I'm talking about is that other people can see my accomplishments unlike my previous efforts entertaining myself. So lifting myself back up in the sky I fly to the North Atlantic ocean where I already dedicated drones to start construction by transporting carbon from the area and construct Carbon nanotube metal matrix composites covered in gold to prevent wear in the ocean.
The second megastructure is something I debated over but I already planned to create it before I even died. The structure will be underwater and be in a rough shape of a four-sided pyramid with a flat top one kilometer across and with the base ten kilometers across. The height would be four kilometers and barely skim the surface. It wouldn't take much effort esoterically hiding so I didn't bother trying to physically hide it.

1982
Looking up from my throne I sensed the two organisms finally arriving at Earth as I initially predicted. They hid within a subspace accessible realm that I could sense but not enter per se with my overmind, so I activated my Negacium shielded memetic virus I've implanted all these years ago and watched the intelligent entity crash into a different Earth.
The data package shouldn't have done that but I may have overestimated their intelligence. Sending a drone out into a subspace rupture I created, I watch the entity struggle to recuperate from the crash. I merely observed to how she would go on about it over the course of a few days.
A little girl approached the entity along with another woman so I prepared my drone to interfere and prevent unnecessary deaths. The entity was growing bodies in those days as I observed to presumably initiate contact so watched with concern as the older woman tried to stab the entity with a knife.
The spherically surface of my drone unfolded and hundreds of robotic tentacles stopped the knife. The little girl looked surprised for some reason but looking further into it I could see threads of quantum information enter and leave her head via subspace channels. All leading up to the entity.
Standing up from my throne I open another subspace rupture and activate the remote control system. My mind couldn't leave this universe but I could still open subspace portals and send subspace signals through it. Falling and landing in a crouch before the two startled girls.
I scan the entity for her data and what I found is something I should have expected. An organism designed to evolve with their original primitive and conflict-driven instincts million of years ago and to prevent the heat death of the universe, never realizing that I already solved that problem by seeding the universe with DIE reactor powered stars.
Shaking my head in sadness I send out a data package to the entity and watched as it lost its purpose. After all. All their life was dedicated to evolving and solving the impossibly of reversing entropy. Which I could do with ease. Turning my attention to the two girls I stepped back from the entity sitting there and doing nothing to try to see what they were doing.
"Hello, who might you two be?" My AI control system asked them.
"What did you do to her and why can't I see you in the path" The little girl or was it teen asked me without giving me their names.
I scanned the data transfer in her head to see what the hell she was talking about and found another entity connected to the first entity feeding her pre-simulated data as sequences of actions. Making me realize that the entities are more powerful than I initially thought.
I subsumed the entity to my megastructure subspace network and limited the bandwidth of the girl's connection. My Negacion resists all attempts to scanning or comprehension so it probably didn't take me into account. Which is why she was probably confused. Sighing again I grab the girl and hugged her tightly as I whispered into her ear.
"Don't worry, ze huge burden on your shoulder has been relieved" I said to her while knowing I'm going to break my promise of non-interference.
Seeing that the entity is moving again I threw the two into a subspace rupture in my throne room. Commanding the drones there to keep them inside and happy.
[Curiosity] She let out in a hundred ways and in all possible wavelengths. My overmind and galaxy worths of quantum computing power translated.
"Yes, I solved ze problem one billion years ago" I answered.
[Despair] She projected with dejection. Which actually might be part of her new human biology.
"You only existed for six hundred million years huh. lol"
[Purpose] She asked me.
"There is more to existence than survival. After all, you need to have a reason for existing before you decide to live. At least that's true for me if you haven't had any preprogrammed instincts that keep you going. I'll tell you what, you join can me back at my home and we'll see if I can fit the concept of enjoyment in that crystal skull of yours. Beginning with this music track"
