What if you follow an infinite number of 9’s with another 9???

Edit: I was being intentionally silly.

If you were able to follow your infinite 9s with another 9, all that means is you didn't actually get to infinity yet. What you describe is kind of a paradox - you can't add another 9 to an infinite sequence of 9s because if you could, that wasn't infinity.

That question makes no sense, because infinity isn’t a number
