After the intense night, I woke up in a seemingly dark space.
Oh, another weird dream?
I glance around myself, as I sense the presence of someone else approaching me.
I glance down below and find the ethereal body of Quinn, it resembles her normal body, but it is made of a clear blue ethereal energy, and it emanates a powerful divinity within her.
This divinity is the one she used to save me when I was eating the Origin Core Fragment… The Divinity of the System Laws.
"Kireina…?" asked Quinn.
"There you are… the war already is over, and we won, and yet you were still sleeping soundly…" I said.
"A-Ah! My main body is still sleeping?! Well maybe I should try to wake up... Wait, why are we here together?" asked Quinn.
"I don't know… We appeared in here and- Oh? I see now…" I said.
"Eh? What?" asked Quinn.
"It seems that we are being called by your parents…" I said.
"My… parents?! What do you mean? …Wait a minute, those perverts?!" asked Quinn.
"Perverts? That's not good, you shouldn't call your parents perverts! Especially when they gave up fragments of their souls to make yours very strong, you know, Quinn-chan?" I asked teasingly.
"D-Don't talk to me like that! I-I know that you are that neet! Even if you're such a hot babe now…" said Quinn.
"Why does it matter so much what I was before? I am me now, Kireina, and you're you, Quinn, my adoptive daughter, stop being so shy and come to mama," I said, grabbing Quinn's ethereal body as she struggled a bit, but I ultimately grabbed her like a baby withing my arms.
"Sheeesh… I-It's not like I like to be carried by you or anything!" said Quinn while averting her gaze from me.
Crack, crack.
As I tried to smoothen Quinn a bit, the space around us began to crack open, as the light behind this darkness emerged.
"What's that?!" asked Quinn in surprise.
"It most likely them, they're calling us after all, let's go met your parents at last, and well, my benefactors as well," I said, as I flew towards the open cracks in space, trespassing them and reaching an area of pure light.
Flash!
The light then began to dissipate, revealing a world filled with a blue sky and several holographic windows and cybernetic circuits everywhere, like a digital world or something like that.
Several figures, dozens of them, no, even more than that appeared, all of them seemed humanoid in shape but made of light… like mannequins made of just white light.
Although some had slight color differences, they all glowed brightly in white… their appearances reminding me of the World's Will Clone we fought with Quinn.
"Wait, these guys look a lot like the World's Will Clone we killed! And well yeah these are my parents…" sighed Quinn.
"Interestingly, we were sent here through an ethereal projection, I guess my Dream Magic is helping us do this," I said.
"Is that… so?" asked Quinn, as the figures approached us and suddenly stopped.
"It is her…"
"Both of them…"
"But more importantly, she's here…"
"Indeed, the one that has led us to a path of independence."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Kireina."
"Are you guys the System Gods? You don't need to say my name a dozen of times, yes, I am Kireina," I said, as I woke them up from their daze.
"Amazing… she's just as we expected her to be." said one.
"No, even more…" said another.
Expected me to be?
What is going on in here?
And why do they… idolize me so much?
What did I even do to them?
I do not even remember speaking with them ever before.
I do know that they were kind of favorizing me in some ways…
But not to this point where they are pretty much adoring me…
Well, this is awkward, but it is also nice.
Maybe… these guys can be even more allies for me?
Or maybe they called me here to kill me?!
No…
Let's calm down.
"What are your intentions?" I asked.
"We want…"
"To show our allegiance…"
"To you!"
"Allegiance…?! Are you guys serious?" I asked.
The System Gods floated around and began to chat between themselves.
"Sorry… we are indeed very serious. Perhaps our way of speaking is not as clear," apologized one of them.
"I-I see… But why? And how are you showing it? Where do you guys even live?" I asked, looking around the place.
"We live in a different place…"
"We cannot reveal that information to you, sadly, it is restricted,"
"We could call you here with Quinn because you two had the essence of our power, and through that link, summoning your ethereal bodies was possible…"

"However, this can only be temporary before this world's laws suppress what we are doing, so we must hurry…."
"We must hurry, hurry…"
"Okay…? Well, so that's how it is… You guys are the Gods that control this System, but it seems that the System itself also controls you?" I asked.
"Indeed, the System controls us,"
"It control us,"
"A bit… but it still controls us,"
"We can only do what it is allowed within the System,"
"As the System has become a Primordial Law of the Origin Core of Genesis, it is part of the world's law, and is authority is supreme even over us, who control and maintain it,"
"I see. I kind of got all of that info when I ate the Origin Core Fragment, alongside a lot of other things, but yeah, I understand a bit more of your situation," I said.
Indeed.
When I ate the Origin Core Fragment, although the World's Will Clone destroyed its own mind to not leave me memories or experiences, I still learned a lot of secrets, special things stored in the fragment itself, the history of this world.
I even learned that this world used to be… actually a normal, Earth-like world!
It was very shocking, but the mother of Gaia's grandmother seemed to be part of this world, where normal humans existed.
Before this world even acquired magic or anything, it was simply some kind of Parallel World from Earth… but as the events diverged, it ended into this fantastical, insane world we are living in.
To resume everything, the World's Will is an alien.
Yep, big revelation time, and I am telling it in the most anticlimactic way possible!
Bad writing? I do not care!
This world was a parallel Earth but… it had a few differences.
One of them was that they had super advanced technology and traveled the universe.
And they really should had not.
Because they awakened something within it that followed them back…
An entity that crosses universes, I do not really know its origin or name, but this entity is the World's Will.
It crossed to this universe somehow, and the humans called it 'Bringer of Evolution'.
I was even able to get a bit of the original appearance of the World's Will before it even fused with the Origin Core…
It looked like a giant, planet-sized mass of white light covered in ethereal tentacles that distorted the spatial layers, it also had one single golden eye in the middle of its spherical body, and oh man, the humans tried everything to fend it off, but they failed miserably.
The power it possessed was something they had never seen before, which was well, quite frankly, magic versus the humans' technology.
And the humans were beaten miserably by it until they ended up escaping Earth.
However, large colonies that could not afford to escape ended up on Earth, as the World's Will or well, the Bringer of Evolution, finally touched it and fused itself with it, an event that the humans named 'The Awakening'.
And from that time on, the entire world changed.
The World's Will, this alien entity that had magic and other fantastical powers fused itself with the planet's core, the Origin Core as they call it, which used to be rather small before fusing itself with it.
However, this entity wanted to fuse with it anyway, so it did, and made of Earth it is a new home (and body, technically).
Its sole presence changed everything, magic became available, currents of Mana, Life, and Soul energy began to flow through the entire world, shaping it and changing it, animals became monsters with powers, and humans gained the power to control these energies and shape them into their own power as well, in this era is when the cultivators were born.
And fast forward thousands of years afterward, and the 'old' Genesis is there.
So that's it.
That's how this world came to be.
Pretty insane.
Oh yeah well, there was the whole world being born thing even before that, but it was just a normal world birth like any other in the universe, so I do not think that was worth mentioning so much.
In resume, the World's Will was the cause of this world to even have magic and powers, and I think it did not intend at first for the mortal beings living on earth to even use it to fight so much, and to improve themselves so much to the point where they came to be, where even beings such as the Supreme Gods were born from this power that the World's Will itself leaked into existence.
If it were not because of it, Gods would not even exist.
The World's Will created all the problems of this world, and it even brought its end in the Ragnarök, it was its fault for bringing these powers that this world ended like this.
But yeah, let's just throw it to the ones who did it all I guess, they also kind of… fucked over everything too.
But yeah, how can you expect people to behave if you give them so much damn power?
I mean, at first, they only survived and made new homes, fighting against monsters and stuff kept them busy for some years.
But when large dynasties and empires were established, and the new superhumans and other races born from this mutation and change began to dominate the globe and overpopulate it, they began to fight against each other instead of resisting the threat of monsters.
After years of mastering the powers of this world and inheriting what the previous generations cultivated to the next generations continuously, new, and stronger humans and demi-humans were born, to the point where they would usually be born with several abilities from the get-go, like my children.
I guess the creation of my wives, children, and well, me, was all due to the World's Will, we are not even the original beings of this world, those are the pure humans in the Central Continent!
I guess that is why the Human Gods treasure humans so much?
After all, they are the most ancient race in this entire world.
We are all pretty much new races here, especially most of us, who are races born after the Ragnarök.
Before the Ragnarök, other demi-human races existed, which were more primitive.
But these Gods born from the World's Will power created these new races, us.
It all… connects so well yet so confusing.
I guess the World's Will created the True Spirits back then to maintain the order of the magic in the world, and the elements that he had brought to this magicless world, after all, when magic was brought, the elements needed to be maintained by pillars, or they would go crazy.
Before cultivators strong enough to do such tasks were born, the True Spirits, the first children of the alien, the World's Will, were born to do this task.
And yeah, fast forward to the Ragnarök, cultivators strong enough to become even better than Ture Spirits roamed everywhere, and they began predating on these True Spirits until none of them were left… rest in peace.
I can see why the World's Will was so angered.
But man, why did you even come to this world if you were going to just fuck everything over with your powers.
Should have expected such an outcome from the beginning!
However, it seems that the ancient humans had thought that the Bringer of Evolution had the intention of fusing with a world with overflowing life so it could regain power, as they had seemed to discover that it was 'weakened'.
Well yeah even weakened the guy just killed most of them, technology humans had no chance.
I wonder where are those guys escaped…
Did they even manage to find a new home within this cosmos?
Or did they just died?
Or maybe they made a space colony or empire, and are terraforming worlds and stuff!
I do not know.
Maybe they even got mechas?
No, I am just fantasizing too much.
Anyways, back to earth.
As I said, there was a lot of stuff I never knew until I got to eat this fragment of the Origin Core.
And here we are, the System Gods are… Eh?
What are they even doing now?!
"Please, accept our gift of allegiance," they said in unison, as each one took off a piece of their bodies and offered them to me…
