Chapter 644 - Side : System G.o.ds POV


-----


Within their vast Divine Realm, the System G.o.ds peacefully floated over the plane, slowly managing their part of the System through their powerful Divinities, the Divinities that supported the whole System.


Many G.o.ds had dreamed of ever possessing such a Divinity, as it could let them manipulate the source of most of the power in Genesis, the System… Many G.o.ds had dreamed of capturing such System G.o.ds and using them for their own benefit, but none had ever managed to do so, the System G.o.ds inhabited a different place where no G.o.ds could ever enter other than their Father, the System Master.


Not even the Supreme G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Creation was capable of entering such a place, how could any other G.o.d be capable of doing so?


This is why they were always secure in this place, while their divinities handled, perhaps, one of the most important elements in Genesis, the System.


The System had been created through the World"s Will, by dividing a small part of itself and creating the System Master, an ent.i.ty very similar in power and capabilities to a Supreme G.o.d, which was given the task of creating and maintaining the System.


The System was designed to foment the growth of mortals to quickly adapt to the new and harsh conditions of the Fragmented Realms of Genesis, and also to help G.o.ds through their endeavors in taking care of such mortals, by giving them Dungeons where they could harvest precious Divine Energy and settle down without having to undergo conflict with each other.


Although Divine Souls could be considered to be "immortal" through the Ragnarök, such conception was greatly broken apart, as many G.o.ds "died" in such an event. Although G.o.ds cannot be directly killed, there are certain methods to end or transform their immortal existences into other things or part of other living beings.


One such example is Kireina"s G.o.d Devour, which lets her eat G.o.ds and make them became part of her soul and power, there are also other older methods such as forcing G.o.ds to combine into another one, stealing the G.o.ds powers and then sealing the weakened Divine Soul, or converting the weakened and sealed Divine Soul into an object, such as an artifact, or even a new living being, there were also cases such as the creation of High Realms, where the G.o.ds that fell upon such places, terribly weakened and cut into pieces slowly merged within the land and transformed into a new Realm filled with Divine Energy and dangerous Divine Beasts and World Dungeons.


In such case, it could be considered that the G.o.ds did not die but became something else, as there is no easy way to simply annihilate a G.o.d out of existence, but there are many, many ways to convert them into something else, that might not be considered alive anymore.


But after the Ragnarök, the G.o.ds that seek power through such methods became less and less, and many pantheons settled down in Realms, taking upon the new "Era of Peace", some took care of the last humans, helping them increase their population for their precious wors.h.i.+p and faith that brought power and stability to G.o.ds, and some were given the task of creating their own children to be wors.h.i.+ped by or to simply refill the many ecological niches that were left in the Realms after Genesis was fragmented.


The System entered the stage in this time, fomenting mortals to grow stronger and to reproduce faster while thriving, and also helped G.o.ds gain benefits without having to fight for them.


The Epic System and other features were added as many years went by, with the help of the Supreme G.o.ds.


However, after many years had gone by, the System had proved to be way too good in doing its work, as it had made mortals thrive so much that almost every Realm was overpopulated, and through such overpopulation, many new G.o.ds began to raise from within the new mortals, some were good, and others bad, creating chaos and messing with the order of the world, and as more years went by, this only became worse.


Because of this, the System designed special ent.i.ties to get rid of the overpopulation, while connecting them to the Epic System to give a greater purpose of unification to mortals that will one day go against such powerful threats. Many Realms had many different versions of such ent.i.ties, in such a vast Realm as the Realm of Vida, they were known as the Realm Menaces of the Seven Sins.


Such ent.i.ties were created by the System and the System Master after he designed the Seven Deadly Sins as powerful Skills that transcended even mortality. They were special "gifts" given to a chosen one, a chaotic being that was given the task of unfolding chaos and torment over mortals, to wake them up from their easygoing lifestyles while also giving them a greater purpose of fighting against "evil".


However, this was nothing more than another layer within the plan, as such ent.i.ties were given the task of annihilating the overpopulation, a nasty work that the G.o.ds did not want to do themselves but that the World"s Will and the System Master were decided to do so.


Such task came to their minds as they were never beings of mortality, born in power and as higher ent.i.ties even above G.o.ds, they never glanced at mortals with anything else than "things that are needed". The intentions behind these two ent.i.ties had always been a mystery to even some of the Supreme G.o.ds.


However, as time went on and the System kept becoming stronger and stronger, the World"s Will had once tried to destroy it before it could go out of control and change the entire world before its very nose, only to fail at it, as the System had become one of the primordial laws of the world at this point, and if it were to be destroyed, the world of Genesis would also be destroyed, and most of the living beings on it would also perish as they all were being affected by it.


The System became part of the world, and one of the biggest pillars that sustained life in Genesis. But it was also an accursed power that was making everything get out of control, to the point that not even the World"s Will was able to grasp the situations of every Realm, losing its almost omnipresent capability over the world and falling into obscurity.


The world of Genesis kept going forward as the System seeped deeply into every existing being and even the world itself, new beings began to be born one after another, and new heroes and G.o.ds raised to fight them back, but also to fight against each other and bring more destruction and disorder to Genesis.


The World was slowly approaching a new era, an era where the old G.o.ds would one day be dethroned and the new generations would take upon the world by themselves, reigning over the old and decrepit G.o.ds and making their own rules and their own realms.


A new Era of Change and all of it was caused by the System.


And by seeing how the System became bigger and stronger, the System Master was simply incapable of sustaining it all by himself, deciding to "divide" himself as if he were a bacteria, undergoing reproduction without any intercourse and generating children one after another, each one being given the power to maintain a small part of the System, with such specialization that they even outperformed their father in that certain part of the System to an extent.


After this, the System Master began to act strange, and as thousands of years went by, he became stranger and odd, he began to plan things and to do many other things behind the World"s Will or even most of the Supreme G.o.ds.


And now, he had suddenly become "too busy", and had given most of the task of supporting the System to his children alone, who, after thousands of years of having been born, were perhaps a bit better than him at it if they worked together for the task.


And since their father hadgone somewhere else", the System Master"s children, the System G.o.ds, had been glancing at a particular "parting gift" that their father left to them, Kireina. Existence is way too unique to simply ignore…


At first, the System G.o.ds thought that their father was an insane man, how could he have given such potential to this being through his very Blessing? What was he even thinking?


By merging the best parts of many powerful Skills, that even included the effect of the Sin of Gluttony that let the user acquire power through devouring anything, the System Master created a powerful Blessing capable of giving limitless potential to any mortal. And Kireina happened to be one of the wielders of this limitless potential.


She grew at an incredible pace, and through her strange abilities that developed to even stranger heights, they had to be constantly manipulating the System to adjust to her capabilities…


Their first challenge was to let her gain Skills through eating, it was simple at first, but as she began to eat more and more absurd things, it was hard to handle which Skills to give her and even which ones could even be used by her, to the point that they had to edit certain Skills so she could use them, nonetheless.


And then came another challenge, perhaps the greatest yet until this moment, where they had to figure out her fused skills, working their brains out and generating new Skills after new Skills to fit her needs. The System G.o.ds were serviceable and their whole purpose was to maintain the System, even if this work seemed like slavery, they had to do it, even if it would tire them out or frustrate them.


At this point, they create a few other G.o.ds through their powers, so they could handle these tasks with greater proficiency than themselves. Thanks to them, Kireina was constantly merging Skills almost automatically, as such "Skill Fusion" had simply become a new feature within the System that only she had discovered.


And then… it came her children, each of her children seemed to be a new race of being, possessing outstanding powers that they had to register into the System while giving their races proper names and also proper Skills that encapsulated all of their capabilities. They managed to do so, but even then, they had a hard time back in those times.


Afterward, they had to quickly handle her Cla.s.ses, which her potential had made it, so she began to unlock thousands of them one after another, filling the cap of available cla.s.ses, something never seen before. Due to this, they had to adjust her Cla.s.ses personally and even created another System G.o.d for such tasks, which also ended up a.s.sisting the other Fusions such as Skill Fusions, t.i.tle Fusions, and Cla.s.s Fusions.


And now… yet another challenge came to their view.


Kireina just ate a Premium Dungeon Core and her whole being began to change, she was simply becoming a Dungeon now! The System had to quickly adjust to her, or it would overload like last time and generate a bunch of problems while trying to calculate her proper capabilities!


"This is… She never stops amusing us…" said a G.o.d of the System, as many once again gathered together to quickly discuss their next course of action.


"DemiG.o.d of Other Stats, you will have to generate a new Stat that represents her power over such new capability," said the G.o.d in charge.


"Very well… How about Dungeon Power?" asked the G.o.d of Other Stats.


"Sounds good," said the G.o.d of Stats.


"G.o.d of Dropped Items and Rewards, and G.o.d of Tasks and Quests, begin the creation of new features for the System, for those that… well, had a.s.similated a Dungeon"s power and had become one," said G.o.d in charge.


"On it," said G.o.d of Dropped Items and Rewards


"Very well," said G.o.d of Tasks and Quests


"We should also adjust her entire being and grant her a new Race. Also, generate new features and Skills that encapsulate her capabilities. Also, give her new features that Dungeons possess,"


"Yes…"


"Very well…"


"This is a bit complicated…"


"Should we also grant her the Dungeon Points Shop we were designing?" asked a G.o.d.


"Yes, give it to her, it is the only thing fitting of her new powers," said the G.o.d in charge.


"To think that she would get such a feature… It is a special Shop that possesses every item ever registered within our System,"


"But the prices are varied and almost exorbitant, so I believe she will not be able to get anything that may surpa.s.s her current strength,"


"Such prices are not without a base, to generate such items, we need a certain amount of energy, the Dungeon Points are that type of energy, by buying the item, the buyer converts such energy into the desired item through our System,"


"Indeed, we cannot produce things out of thin air, we need proper energy for them, until then, she will have to gather power,"


"…I think I am done, this was exceptionally tiring…"


"Indeed, this was terribly tiring…"


"I wonder if any other being will ever reach her at this point?"


"There are some that might… There are already some that had gotten power similar to her…"


"We must give her the most help we can through these opportunities…"


"I hope she can be pleased, we worked very hard,"


"Perhaps this might help her in the threats to come in the future…"


"Let us hope for the best,"


The G.o.ds seemed oddly attached to Kireina, even when she had never spoken to them, this was due to the Charming and Fascinating life that had made the G.o.ds attached to her, and when she began to unlock the Enlightenment Cla.s.ses, this fascination grew even higher.
