Only the gods who were almost immortals till the end of the universe, still remembered my existence and gave me the moniker,
"The Forgotten God"
Since I didn't care for such trivial things I just let them be and continued on my way.
After all my travels I finally decided to settle down, and constructed a castle over the biggest blackhole of the universe.
That's when I found it., At the center of that supermassive black hole, where space bends and time itself loses its meaning,
A small object ( when compared to the supermassive Blackhole ) resembling an Archaic Gate, Engraved with unknown runic markings, emitting brightness comparable to a star, was embedded in the very fabric of the universe.
Through the tiny gaps that couldn't be seen with the naked eye, mana distinctly different from anything I've ever felt, was seeping into my universe.
Curiously I touched the door with the intent to examine it, and the moment my fingers touched it,

[ Granted access to the Universal Treasure - The Universal Gate ]
After the last notification, the gate shot through me and settled in my soul. That's when I noticed the small crack in the fabric of the universe held together by the treasure.
The moment I saw it I instinctively sealed the opening using the Power of the Universal Gate in my soul.
After stabilizing my soul, I learned of the forbidden knowledge, that there exist countless universes in the boundless River of Reality and the mana as we knew it was the power from the river seeping into every universe after the universes reach maturity.
And the foreign mana I sensed from the gap was from an adjacent High level Universe that's almost a trillion years old trying to invade my universe by eroding the Universal Capsule that protects it.
But the Universe in it's semi conscious state, condensed it's origin power and created the only Universal Treasure to guard against the invasion.
I was chosen to be the guardian of the Universe, because
Just plugging the gap won't solve the problem.
And someone was needed to watch over the gate to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands.
After coming into contact with the foreign mana which was obviously of a higher level from my own due to it's source, I started comprehending it in hopes that it might be the key to solving my conundrum regarding how I can protect my universe.
But because of its foreign nature even after millions of years, I only comprehended bits and pieces of it, and that alone was enough to raise my stagnated power to another level.
