SPECULATIONS ABOUT LORE・STORY PLOT・FINAL DESTINY

• Quantum physics theory about Sylus's EVOL — Energy Manipulation — suggests the ability to control matter at a molecular or subatomic level.
  • The bullet fractures and dissolves within the mist, indicating an ability to disrupt the molecular structure of matter. The mist's instantaneous interaction with the bullet and men could be interpreted as a form of quantum entanglement, where two particles are linked regardless of distance.
  • Instances where Sylus appears to disintegrate and reappear elsewhere suggest a form of teleportation that could involve breaking down his physical form into particles and reconstructing it. This aligns with the concept of quantum tunneling, where particles traverse barriers by existing in multiple states simultaneously. But it is not a teleportation if we think about "was there - not there - now here" kinda of a thing. We can see the tendrils of the myst are flying toward he location, swirling and then reforming him.
  • Also, **in Long Awaited Revelry・Ambiguous Chaos ( + SMS "Countdown Reminder" ), Chapter 2 "Alike," Luke and Kieran suddenly appear "out of air," and Mephisto disappears with Sylus, then slowly appears from the mist particles on his shoulder. This suggests that he can use his EVOL's "disintegrating " abilities not only on himself but on anything/anyone else, and not always in a "destruction" mode. Teleportation of living beings raises questions about consciousness transfer. How does Sylus's Evol preserve consciousness during teleportation? And OMG, what an immense amount of trust twins have in their boss 😁.
  • These all suggests that he is manipulating particles or energy on a subatomic level. If Sylus can break down any physical form into particles, he could phase through locked dimensions or barriers. This ability would explain how he escaped the Space-Time prison — he may have simply deconstructed his form, bypassed restrictions, and reformed outside of it. His Evol may grant him control over particle-wave duality, meaning he can exist both as a solid form and a dissipated energy state, allowing him to bypass conventional physics.
  • Sylus consumed the mist particles that were created from the dissipated Man In Black. The particles are moving towards his hand, not out of it. And we also have another instance in Solon Hotel (in Mischief) when "nothing remains of the man". All the rumors about "eating people" (in Elysium), and "drinking blood" (in Mischief) start to make sense. It may explain why he is not/or slowly aging. A vampire that doesn't drink blood, but consumes the whole human 0_0.
  • Let's accept this as a form of energy transfer or absorption and then think about times when Sylus heals quickly in some instances and seems vulnerable in others. This inconsistency suggests a healing mechanism that is dependent on resources. He may use those consumed particles — energy — to heal himself. Sylus's ability to heal instantly might depend on the amount of energy he has recently absorbed. If his energy reserves are low, his healing could be slower or require external physical care, as we see in some memories.
  • His EVOL is also capable of reviving withered flowers. This suggests he can redistribute absorbed energy, not only for personal regeneration but also to rejuvenate other entities. So its dual nature (black and red) could symbolize destruction or death and rebirth. Such control over energy transfer aligns with thermodynamic principles, where energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed, with potential entropy implications. However, reviving flowers might be a one-off narrative device, not a core power. More instances are needed to confirm energy sharing as a consistent power.
  • Another interesting case is how Mephisto materializes from the mist at the Destiny Cafe. Could this suggest some hidden form of communication, where Mephisto signals a desire to meet the boss, prompting Sylus to disintegrate and reassemble him at will? Or can Mephisto do so independently, seamlessly deconstructing and reconstructing himself wherever he pleases?
  • He is teleporting plushies in the claw machine. I don't think he's just creating it out of nowhere, he's picking it up from another machine.
  • He is teleporting himself during the battles.
  • "Black-Red Mist drifts from their bodies. It travels along the dragon's horns to his tail before entering the wound in the young man's chest". — Narrator, MC's vision of Syus's past
    • This line could be a symbol of taking in the power or essence of those who have been defeated. As it flows into the boy's chest, it suggests that he is drawing strength or energy from the dead. This idea matches the idea in the line "The curse he once despised has become his strength," where the boy's change is powered by the life force of others, turning a curse into a source of strength.
    • The mist entering his chest and the dragon wings that emerge from it suggest regeneration and transformation. The mist might be facilitating his healing and the awakening of his true dragon form. This is what started my theory on his myst, aging, and healing.
