“You’re...I see...but there is an inconsistency in that theory. It does not explain why you
are here.”

“There is nothing strange about that.” The magician who should by all rights be inside
the Windowless Building in the center of Academy City responded as if that should be
obvious. “The woman named Anna Sprengel was said to have carried out the role of the
Secret Chief and of a point of contact and to have helped in the foundation of the Golden
cabal, but in the end, it was said to be dubious whether she even truly existed. ...I too
functioned as the point of contact for Aiwass who is one of the theories of the Secret
Chief. To be honest, I do not think that is the exaggerated and much too serious role in
charge of things like giving permission for the foundation of all the magic cabals in the
world. In fact, I do not think there is any need to get permission for such a thing. But,
well, I am the same type of existence as Anna was said to be. As such, it should not be
too surprising to think that I have surpassed the realm of only being expressible as 0 or
1.”

Even then, Aleister Crowley still existed in the center of Academy City.

But at the same time, Aleister Crowley existed before Fiamma.

Multiple versions of him such as a clone did not exist.

It was just that the single one of him existed in multiple locations.

It was a phenomenon that destroyed the basic concept of counting, but that was just
what the domain at the top was like. The Sephirot used various words and numbers to
create an explanation of the spiritual world, but organizations above a certain level
could not be explained using words, so they were intentionally omitted.

Did someone who entered that domain reach one of those upper organizations or did
reaching one of those upper organizations cause one’s domain to transform into that
domain?

At any rate, Crowley was in a different dimension.

He was in a higher place than Fiamma who had declared he held the power needed to
save all of humanity while he was still an existence that could be counted with that
world’s numbers.
