If they use the Akashic Records to change the time and their fate will cause all players who played the online game from previous revision stating to an Alteration Memories Syndrome, causing them forgetting those who they originally met during the past time.

Using the Sea of Memories as the gate to the destination of the past time, even though it is just a Data Log which created from Past PCs Memories, which relieves so many events that happened to the players and the world as to how it recorded in Akashic Records.

Akashic Records was created way back during the early era of The World R:1, but has been recreated and reworked in a new version by Genius and Jyotaro Amagi, which are used to store all PC’s Memories log data and recorded only in Akashic Records which located in Deep CyberConnect Network System.

It is a main key story to the LINK Story, as Tokio and his friend using the akashic records to stop Schicksal rewritten the timeline for their ambition, and obtain the Chrono Core before they will obtain first.

Akashic UnRecords/Dark Time
The Dark Time, also known as Akashic Unrecord which is the junk and hidden memories of log data that never been shown up in the past time, or many times they traveled. It was labeled as The Lost Dungeon and also the Forbidden Area to explore.

It was covered with all Hidden Memories of Log Data that never even been told, or never as actually planning to be told which intended to keep hidden to avoid the darkest things happen for those who travel the past time.

Those are also part of Aura’s memories, and only her who knows the truth of the terrible things happen to Players and the other as well, but she’s patience and hoping for what might best for players, but only to observe them.

It contains horrible experience, and Secret events that never meant to be shown by anyone, even they will show what it contains from Dark Time only bringing nothing to suffering, mental breakdown, and traumatic experience, by going to deeper and deeper of floor levels will contain even more suffering, traumatic, and darkest memories which never explained any of it, but it also contains a lot of information about what they didn’t know.

Those events become a key to the future titles story and it’s tied to the upcoming title, and also as the opening to the Third Season of dothack Story.

True Akashic Records
The true existence of Akashic Records and the forbidden areas that are never supposed to travel by players, hacked PC or even Unique PC could never enter the most forbidden area.

For those who enter that area, and slowly their memories will be lost and replaced by alternate memories that never supposed to be their memories either, consisting the cause of Alteration Memories Syndrom will come into the worst stage. If that happens, there will be no way of restoring their original memories, even Chrono Core cannot do help for such a situation, which brought disaster to players in confusion.

The continuation of exploring the area will only bring risk to their psychology mind and their memories will be overlapped cause their images, personality, and memories started to change.

True Akashic Records is the final place of the Third Episode of Chrono Link which can be unlocked when players choosing answer more carefully at the end of the First half.

Chrono Core
The key orb which is the main key item to LINK Story, which is the key system operator of the Akashic Records and it is a way to restoring its operation & free those Legendary hackers who’ve been trapped in Akashic Record.

It is unknown and mystery how Chrono Core being planted on Haseo, Kite, and Tsukasa, but Schicksal might be ordered to obtain the Chrono Core from past legendary hackers and it holds the key to the powerful amount of data and gathering the lost data minding to absorb into creating new powerful PC character, and Chrono Core is key to bringing something the possibility.

The keys of the Operation system being guarded by The Guardian of Recorder who protecting the system operational in preventing to operate it in its own bad will or preventing the risk happen toward Player’s memories.

Chrono Core becomes something that Saika and Chrono Link been looking for and wanting to obtain it before Schicksal obtains it first. As the story progresses slowly will lead up to the origin of the Chrono Core.

Reprogramming Time Code (RTC)
The code of the reprogramming character PC system is a way to saving the PCs and Twilight Knights from MoonStone virus and their Alteration Memories Syndrome.

It can be used to reprogramming the PC system, and free all original memories who are trapped within a moonstone, although the normal people still unable to return normal unless they need to clear all levels of Akashic Records.

RTC Orb is a sub-key system from Akashic Records, as Chrono Core is the main-key system, which most likely resetting the PC programs and returning them into normal, however, it takes a lot of time to make reprogramming them fast, the player must gather more the RTC Code orb to free them from the moonstone virus.

Key of Memories
To unlock the memories of time event, it needs requirements by using the Key of Memories which are the ways to new time events which been locked away by Aura.

Those are fragment keys which been scattered across the time of era, and being held by the resident monster creature from Dark Time, known as Zeit, the monster who was born by abnormalities and negative emotion analyzation of Human PC taking the form of Dark Monster purpose to bring cause relapse of PC’s Memory log data.

He holding or storing the fragment keys of Aura’s memories for something out of their knowledge and preserving desire to learn and evolve, and to defeat the Monster called, Zeit, you need to do something to keep out their existence from Players of the past time, and it needs several strategies to defeat them because their strength is very vulnerable and much twist in strength.

Akashic Line
The online beta tester which it was created by Jyotaro Amagi before he being hired by CyberConnect Corporation for G.U. The project, however, it granted permission from CC Corp to be its publishers due to secret research and programming.

Not much known the connection between Closed Beta and the connection to Jyotaro’s research, but according to a Classified CC Corp files, The closed beta was used for testing the participant subject who can become a The Real Digitalization.

No one knows when it’s released in Open Beta, but Closed Beta only released for 3-7 months, and due to unknown reasons it has been shut down by him. Although the files didn’t show why Jyotaro can be hired by CC Corp with taking part as Leader of G.U. Project and why also he deciding to shut down the Akashic Line which remains a mystery at all times.

But according to some players from The World R:3, they’ve been discovered the mysterious City and Kingdom which was still to be unknown, but it sure confirmed, The Akashic Line still surface in Deep Ocean of Data after the shutdown and because of this, AIDA found their way to access the Akashic Line.

According to another classified file from CC Corp, Tokio Kuryuu taking part in the experimenting the Real Digitalization as a subject No.8.

Enties
The Legendary of PKK and Hackers which was known by many players from Newbies to veterans of The World R:3 and most notable to be a dangerous PC that they ever faced.

Tokio and his friend had been encountering with him many times and had been fighting against her so many times as well. However, no one could ever possibly knows about ENTIES’s true identity. He was presumed by Tokio and his friend to be the mastermind behind the Fall of the Twilight Knights and the corruption operational of Akashic Records, which is now still never been found until now.

According to the new information Alibaba and Saika, Enties is a possibility to be a secret member of Schicksal and was never been listed as a member due to her rarely being shown up. As the story progress, ENTIES is still become a main key role to LINK Story as they still figuring out his true identity and his true intent, while they hunt for Chrono Core.

Some according to the source, that ENTIES may have an actual connection with Jyotaro Amagi.

X-Chain
The mysterious virus which was called  Cross Chain  is the strongest type of virus bug that came creation from Hidden Corrupted Data within Tokio’s PC which was caused by Black Disc Copy.

That virus can even stand a chance against Aura’s Ultimate Protection Security AI and causing Aura’s been infected and corrupted by the Cross Chain virus, with resulting the Immortal Dusk came into a place.

It surpassing many types of virus that already came to event, but this virus was entirely different from any type they came up for, with possibility of Remake version of Deadly Flash or something worse than ever, with suspicion of the hackers had created virus that really out of the system, and was claimed for those who created it was a genius in IT making speculating that someone has installed the virus to the Black Copy Disc.

But another speculation and theories have told the possibility that Cross Chain Virus doesn’t come from Black Copy Disc, but there’s someone else with the highest capabilities of programmers has hacking Tokio’s PC, therefore it connected to ENTIES, but all this conclusion remains unclear and unsolved at moment.

Guardian of Recorder
The guardians who protecting the Labyrinth of Time which most likely is Akashic Record.

There are not Demon or Angels, even with their similar design, there are Guardian of Recorder who protecting Aura from someone who tries to get near Aura or using Aura in corrupted ways and their mission to protect the Memories Data Log of Time from those who use them for something beyond just risk.

But, due to Schicksal came, those guardian being corrupted and Chrono Link Core has disappeared, causing Schicksal using Akashic Record to travel the time and obtaining the Chrono Core and so then the time record log data remained unprotected & change which became a source of the Alteration Memories Syndrome.

Those guardians are the protector of the level operating system of Akashic Record, and putting Chrono Core need to breached them by defeating those Guardians to get past to the operating system level.

There are 4 Guardian of Recorder, such as:
 * 1st Phase  TIME
 * 2nd Phase  REALM
 * 3rd Phase  SPACE
 * 4th Phase  PARADOX

King of Recorder 'Chrono'
The King, Leader, and the protector of the Gate Seal of Chrono Core which where Aura has been kept, however, he is the oldest guardian who had to protect her for more than one decade, along with his minion which revealed to be The Guardian of Recorder, Security Ultimate AI system, and Three Azure Knight who was protecting Aura through many versions of The WORLD.

The Chrono is the guardian of the source of all Chrono Core,  Chrono Link  which is the true origin of all Chrono Core had been made and has been kept protecting under last Aura’s wish.

The King was used to be PC played by Human in the Era of The WORLD R:1, however as soon his player died due to cancer, he survived as a wandering AI and been taking care of by Aura as the most trusted guardian. He evolved through many countless data, repairing, reconstructing, and upgraded in many versions to survive and that’s how he becomes the most powerful AI as the King of Recorder.

It is the strongest bosses which harder to defeat, but usually, there’s only a way to defeating him.

The Founder of Recorder "LINK"
Much considered as the most mystery lore of dothack series, according to Classified CC Corp Files, The Founder of Recorder “Link” was not an AI or Bosses, but the Human who had a total concentration of DoubleWare PC.

He possesses data and power to control the memories of log data PC, including the ability to see everything, including the future and many things, however, those power are remains still unknown. But it has the power to see through PCs memories and many hidden sights have been exposed with that kind of abilities.

They can also commanding the PC, NPC, Bosses, AI and more to kneel on their feet, which proving how much those power had possessed through connection and Link toward network system, thus able to control network as well. But according to those files, they had killed The Complete DoubleWare Subject who had the highest awareness of “The Founder” data power, which could be possibly become the highest threats of all CC Corp and all Human Race.

It was considered as the forbidden Data Power to access, but the question is how Time Recording Connection still active even after they had killing “The Founder User”?

The Gate of Chrono Core
The Guardians of Recorder seems to be the one who takes a charge on keep protecting the Gate of Chrono Core from those who using the operational system and it seems to contain more than meets the eyes, as according to Ayaka/Saika, the operational system of Akashic Record was seal within and guarded by the Guardian of Recorder which that means needs to get through them first.

However, those who touch the door hold the secret memories of the past time which could possibly hold something that never even they had seen before.

Who’s the one's memories are still unknown, but theories had told that Tokio and his friends are not the first ones who came to Akashic Records.

Real Digitalization
The highest-rare advancement technology which allows Human to enter to the Digital World with their own Physical Body and their minds, which actually Digitalizing themselves into a Data. By entering their Actual Body into a Virtual Space making them had no effects on problems like their real-life did, such as Food, Drinking or Sleep, it was due to their mind physicology had slightly worked like data, unable to feel the condition due to their being in Data.

They won’t age due to their physical body awareness won’t do affect data as well, such as Cells, Bones, and more specifically won’t working which means that it internally stopping the process inside the body which now been replaced with how the flow works of the data.

It also had a few numbered risk, with how long the process as goes with how System evolved more will impacting their lives, if the system shut down or their amount data works been deleted which means that They will also get permanently deleted, which also mean to be dead and another risk is how awareness of the actual body can somehow transfigure their mind it also impacting to how their body limit goes, which means if their Real-Digitalization Body’s internal Core delete, which means they unable to return to Real World, which means they will be trapped in Data World forever, unless someone who had the highest skill can enough to recreated their core data.

Another worst possibility risk lead-up to  Outer Dependency Syndrome, if they extending too much amount process to their Real Digitalization causing their brainwave to become much processing the irregularity which out of their moralities, and eventually causing the total loss of their form and diffusion across the virtual space, which means they will go berserk and unable to control themselves.

Although, it was slated as the classified technology which was never brought to light since late-20 Century which was classified by CyberConnect Corporation themselves until some of the staff, including Genius, had worked for Bring back idea the Real-Digitalization project, thus reborn into Immortal Dusk Project by using that technology

But technology has a high awareness level with those who had to possess the special abilities known as DoubleWare

DoubleWare PC
The special abilities which are currently the higher-level awareness of the Real Digitalization known DoubleWare which is the same as Real Digitalized PC which entering their Physical body and mind into Data and Network.

The differences in how they able to move around or even can transport themselves, but they cannot use a system like other PC like leveling up, changing equipment, interact using the system, and more system from the online game due to the body of Doubleware wasn’t same like any other PC. However, In order to grant access to the gameplay of the Online Game, they need to train and nurture themselves how to manipulating gravitation, combat, surrounding environment, and more.

But away easy to navigate the DoubleWare PC by using the Augmented Virtual Eyeglasses which has invisibilities allowing to navigate players to nurture themselves like they can use an online game system like their own PC like how much level which results from player’s experience as Doubleware PC.

DoubleWare is not much like PC, however, it has special abilities that granted more freedom to access the equipment and job depending they choose like in Real-Life, and can use to manifest the amount data at their own will.

Even Doubleware PC has an immune effect to any attacks by PC, including bullet gun, skills and more which is more impossible, but they still can feel injured or hurt in different circumstances, but too much highest concentration of Doubleware will also causing their body reach Outer Dependency Syndrome, unless they able to control the concentration of Doubleware abilities.

The Founder Power also exists as ultimate special abilities with a total concentration and awareness toward Doubleware, without being drawn into Syndrome, but it is unknown what kind abilities will reach such a conclusion at the moment.

In hope that goals become major responsible behind Schicksal doing, which Genius was the one behind that plan to obtain Chrono Core to outstand their own will to using Aura, the Ultimate AI for Real-Digitalization.
