Yuni checks her book and feels something strange and asks Mir for help "Mir why do I feel something ? " " How am I supposed to know ? It's weird enough that you can feel something when you have Senseless "
Even so , Mir still gives Yuni a check " Hmm it's like how systems can feel things , maybe you spend so much time with systems you're starting to act like one . And have their skills too "
Mir was more than impressed that this was the case "I started noticing that for a while, when I recognized some similarities with Welt and you , I'm feeling something with my spell circle . Can you tell me something about it ?" Mir takes a look at the summoning spell circle .
" Oh this one is my bad " Yuni turned to Mir with a confused expression "Meaning ?" " After you allowed me to give you challenges , it was starting to affect other things too and one of those things was this "
Mir gathers the information about what the challenges were affecting and sends it to Yuni , which came to her as raw information due to her challenges filtering out the sensory information ' Woah , this is something ' "Teach me how to make" " That'll be hard since most of the work was done by a combination of challenges . "
Mir looks at the well-structured challenges surrounding Yuni , which prevent her from receiving any type of information and some other challenges that pierced deep into her body to make changes , making it hard for her to perform certain actions , such as preventing her from killing due to Mercy or silencing her voice from Silence .
' Oh ' Yuni finished digesting the information and found a lot of strange surprises , like the infectious traits of the challenges "This won't reach my other accounts , would it ?"
" Of course it would , you left a small part of yourself in them . Although you may not notice the part that you left , you do leave something behind on your accounts . Think of your memories which each account experience . Never notice how you can't recall past accounts' experiences very well compared to this one right ? "
Yuni was confused since , logically speaking , she would obviously remember more recent events "How do you know all that ?" Mir suddenly checks and wonders " Wait , how do I know this " Mir tries to construct a proper series of events in which they encounter this sort of informaiton .
"Anything ?" " No , is something wrong with me " Yuni faced Mir to see if she could try to sense or feel the problem . She started to feel some sand and recalls the hourglass she took the rust from , but there was also some glass shards similar to the one that the hourglass was made of that Mir seems to have .
' Oh no ' " Hey, why are you feeling around me like that ? " Mir asked , feeling extremely exposed after sensing Yuni's peeping into their being "Why are you worried ? Aren't we married ?" " Yeah , but we're not there yet and some marriages are political and for power only , like ours . "
' Should I tell them ? They are pretty safe as a system , but it might come as a shock , moreover Welt was pretty adamant about not talking about this , even leaving indirect messages just to avoid the slightest chance of spilling the beans ' Yuni gripped the armrest of the throne of Monopoly .
"Maybe we should check on the hall of transcendance first" " Yeah , changing the subject is really good for anyone in a marriage " Mir said sarcastically , Yuni silently sighed and went to sleep . as Mir entered the dream that Delirium creates .
" I'm still amazed by how delirium managed to create this from you , usually they just base it off of a person's trauma or something " "I've dealt with that for a long time and I'm sure Delirium has a more than enough of a base to make this"
Mir suddenly had an idea on how the Delirium challenge create a place like this " Maybe the reason why it become so concrete like this hall is because of your lucidity . Delirium always makes a person's subconsciousness chaotic so this organized hall must be crafted with both opposing ideas working in tandem "
"I have to tell you something" " What did I say about changing the subject ? And didn't you come here to check the hall ? " "Yes , but also to tell you something , I couldn't let others learn of" Yuni starts writing the text down as Mir reads about it .
They expressed shock in their voice " HUH ! You're telling me the reason why that young system seemed to have more potential was that they've been turning time ? " Yuni nodded "But more importantly , it seems like that reset button wasn't perfect because you are starting to gain memories from the previous rounds , playthroughs or whatever you want to call it"
" Tsk , I can't believe that Ordo was such a horrid admin that Welt had to reverse time so often , they would've been better with me " "You feeling sympathy for them ?" " Of course not , they're successful , I'm sure the resources they have to indulge in are enough to make it more enjoyable than my boring life "
' Harsh ' Yuni thought " Wait , are you planning to save them ? " "I want Welt to teach me a lot about the codes they have , did you know how extensive their systems are ?" Mir couldn't deny that Welt had indeed had many well-developed systems .
" Fine , you can go save that thief " "Do you want Ordo back ?" " Oh hell to the no , that thing can die for all I care because they don't appreciate the experience and difficulty that they threw themselves into . They just love temporary gains , which the thief always gives "
Mir suddenly thought of Welt and why they want them gone " Now that I think about it , why does that thief want their admin gone ? Is Ordo a very strong account ? " "Is that the usual criteria for all admins ?"
" No , but having power is definitely important " Mir said while Yuni tried to think of a reason ' I mean , I really don't get it . Why would you want to get rid of them ? ' she wondered if Ceil could get some information to confirm the why .
"Forget about it , I'll eventually find out soon , so let's just get this thing over with , it's becoming more and more and more boring sitting on a throne and repeating the same thing again" " You say the same thing everytime ? " Mir said .
"Course I do , I've seen a lot of things" " Meh , I understand that boredom . Care to tell me more " "Why ?" Mir sensed Yuni's thoughts " You're rude , thinking of me as simply a greedy system i also want to learn too "
"Surprising" " Hey I learn a new thing from you , so I gotta pay you back " Mir said "By learning more from me ?" Mir sighed and said " Tell you what , I can bring you to a place where most systems originate from , it's still fresh in my memory "
"So you're just going to keep surprising me more and more from now on ?" " Isn't that how it works ? A person shows a secret , so now you have to be more open to them , so tell me more and then I'll take you to the system's origins " ' This feels like therapy '
She still didn't stop and started to tell more about her life and how she had managed to get to the system .
...
While Ceil was completely frustrated by the way the plot followed " ARGH MORE UNEXPLAINED DEVELOPMENT " Themiel looked at Ceil , thrashing any personal items that she both to the control room .
' At least she has her wrath restrained , but what is this literature she is reading so frequently and getting mad at while going to read it again ? ' while he was curious a book flew past him . He walked towards it and picked it up ' hmm ? ' he looked at the title and continued to hear Ceil ramble more and more about the author's horrible writing and jumping to random points of time without any form of explanation given to the reader .
' It couldn't hurt to read this , I'm sure a reader like her would like to talk about it ' Suddenly Themiel remembers that she doesn't like answering questions ' Perhaps not , but this could answer my questions on its own '
And so he started to read it .
...
Zaun finishes up another hourglass as he absorbs the experience through combat , while Welt grew more assured , seeing Zaun grow even stronger ' it's still not enough though ' Zaun was surrounded by more of those floating figures gathered , voicing out their thoughts and questions .
" The ascendant has grown their power " " But it's not the same that we sensed deep within " " What is this lost power ? " " Maybe they don't own it " the voices bothered Zaun a lot and thanks to interacting a lot with Ceil , his own investigative skills are also great .
' They're probably talking about mom's power , her original power was broken into quarters ' the lore gatherers with him asked what these figures are " Ceil , they're like you , they ask questions expecting answers . You're better off asking Welt " Zaun didn't want any more noise added .
Welt looks at the lore gatherer to see a very maddened Ceil asking for the information " They are Followers , they wish to understand the path a transcendant walks and follow that path without worrying about risk "
" So they are basically just leeches ? " Ceil asked through it , Welt could sense that sphere of non-surveillance that Ceil projected on herself and answered more " If you really think about it that way , then yes "
" But how do they see this path of greatness to follow ? " Welt remembers Mir , who had created these paths , which were the basis they have in creating a path to power instead of a path of pain " They see it very well and follow that path , although sometimes they need to be able to witness these pathmakers in their prime to see it " Welt said while Ceil was satisfied with the answer .
' For someone more curious than the followers of paths , she sure can hold back her curiosity ' Welt thought . Zaun continued his rest , tuning out the noise and reflecting on the battle now that he couldn't repeat it ever again .
He felt a little paranoid not being able to sense outside because of the follower's questions , but he needed to focus on understanding the power he got . This was just to ensure he doesn't suffer a drawback when using the abilities he learned from the other transcendants .
" Hey Zaun , do you gain any memories from those battle " Ceil asked through her lore gatherer , while Zaun senses a hint of annoyance " Are you mad at mom again ? " " Why wouldn't I be ? She is screwing up my lore gatherer , so the story I'm getting is like a bad author's writing . This is the type of author that expects everyone to get what their story is about , as if anyone can hear their thoughts . "
Zaun continues to listen to Ceil's rambles about how Yuni was interfering with the lore gatherers to ruin Ceil's reading experience " I'm just not going to read it until then , maybe I can force mom to tell me what happened "
Zaun couldn't imagine Yuni ever losing at all , much less being forced to do something " you best try to have Naul ask for your help " " Tsk , he's not going to be helpful , especially since he is helping mom "
Zaun wonders what Ceil was doing at the moment , but he knows Ceil too well , she's always the one asking questions .
...
Naul was busy managing his siblings , who were asking for his help due to his ability to optimize production " No Course , if you use that kind of poison for this big lake , the victim you get won't be able to bypass it . Also , this is an easy difficulty dungeon you want to make , so you need a little bit of leeway for them as well as a little bit fo poison to make them panic a little . "
" Brother , what about the souls ? " " You'd have to rely on how many demons die and get ressurected . Moreover , even if you devour souls , these souls would remain alive inside of you " Naul told Vesol .
" Ehh , but the one mom fed me wasn't " " Yeah because she gave you memories , plus if you had tried to eat her soul , you'd feel bloated . Now you probably work the same as Limos , they also have a spiritual world in them that you can use as a reference , so try to ask them "
' Managing siblings is so difficult ' "Naul , I need to ask you to do something" Naul was surprised by the sudden request as he wrapped up his siblings' problems and quickly went to find Yuni .
" What ? " "I need you to find Grasil's memories" Naul was confused and Yuni told him all about what happened " You want me to hack into this system to get the memories back ? " Yuni nodded ' Narra has been holding back her desire to ask me to help Grasil back up . But I do need Naul to get something for me from there though '
Naul thinks of what to ask , but Yuni already offered "If you can get it , I'll give you my random boxes" Yuni wrote down a big four-digit number of random boxes ' This is a lot . Is she scheming or something ? '
' If there is one thing I am sure of , it's that Naul would always work more if the payment was too good . I might be able to get useful by sending him into the data files , he has a great sense of what is valuable , so I just have to gamble on it '
Naul takes the random boxes hesitantly " No takebacks " "I won't take anything back from you" Yuni wrote and Naul quickly went to get it over with while Mir appeared " What did you do to him ? He seems so cooperative " "He's just the type to overcompensate when he is overpaid "
' ? ' Mir wondered what Yuni meant and Yuni decided to focus on her intial plan to cause an error first "So are all of the things ready ?" " Kinda , but I'd rather make sure my world doesn't break apart when we take it off Welt's network . Also , don't you think that it's enough to prove you are a good admin by managing all those systems already ? "
"I would but I don't know the standards , I happen to have a manager who is chronically aware of the standards so I'm hoping they can provide some insights on how great I actually am I hardly asked them to compare and only let them criticize my techniques" ' Hmm I'd like to see what they think of my world too , I have managed it well and I can't really count on these younger ones for opinions ' Mir thought .
...
Themiel couldn't believe the text he was reading , it had legitimate information rather than fiction that he thought Ceil was talking about . He also found some devastating news ' So this is why Ceil wants to leave this place ... but she must have her reasons to not reveal this information '
He continues reading and eventually remembers that Ceil might get involved in it ' I need to return this . I think it's wrong to look at someone's life story , even if they purposely sell it out, but this one is something Ceil seems to have that records almost every bit of it '
Now Themiel was wondering how Ceil acquired a book like this , He wants to see if the stories inside were indeed true because it seemed to match so well with the official storybook ' But what's even worse is this '
He was referring to the topic between Ordo and Welt . But even that felt like it could be true thanks to Ceil questioning him about that their relationship specifically , even though she never mentions turning time back or any related subjects to it like regrets or the like .
' This is beyond my experience ' Themiel thought he could handle what the world threw at him , but learning that the real relationship is actually unstable made him question everything he knew .
He even thought back of the information concerning regression ' I've seen what happens to a soul when memories are ripped out , but for some reason none of us is experiencing it ' He heard a knock on his office and quickly hid the book away .
" Come in " " Themiel I just want to send you this report " Ceil said and Themiel wanted so badly to ask Ceil these questions "How long did you know" "Are you one of these regressors" but he couldn't let it out at all , fearing that it might be a mistake .
" Thank you , Ceil " " By the way , did they agree to my suggestion yet ? I've partially given up on it , but it would be nice to know if there was any sort of progress around it " Themiel thinks about the mails he received .
" I don't believe so , but it really seems like you are very intent on doing so . Perhaps I can help you with that ? " despite Ceil being very investigative of history . She does not care much about the people she interacts with , especially if they do their best not to be involved in the affairs of the world " Oh sure " she shrugged the thought away .
So the anxiety that Themiel was feeling was ignored and associated with their personal life , which Ceil isn't very privy about . Although Rein may think otherwise , as she would go to great lengths to find out and that is exactly what she is doing right now .
...
A bush rustles as Rein keeps herself hidden and uses some binoculars to stalk a couple ' Hmm , according to the tavern , these two have been dating for so long already ' while she was stalking the two lovers of different species and worlds within Welt's integrated world systems . Ceil was watching through her book and was visibly disappointed by her sister's obsession once again .
' If only she decided to stalk Ordo and Welt instead... Maybe that is possible ' Ceil thinks of a way to contact Rein while also searching for Ordo so she can send Rein to stalk them while being least conspicuous , which she seems to be really good at ' Although , will she even be interested ? '
Ceil wonders if there was some sort of look Welt has that allows a clear picture ' Goddamn it , maybe I can think back to the old systems we've been through . There is the tower that mom went into , so I think I can use that as a reference , but there is also that one that has ruin points , which seems to relate to the reward instances from the challenges '
She starts forging the look that Welt likely looks like ' First off , from the lore I've gathered , Welt rewards are very varied depending on the task and challenge faced with . I could put the format of the multiple world systems that Welt integrated into as the center . '
She drew a 2d drawing , which was the only way to make it ' First , a circle at the center , this will be the reward and from there , instead of globes , how about some segmented rings varying in size to represent the other worlds ? '
She continued drawing , leaving a "do not disturb" sign and thinks of a way to contact Rein ' I think it's possible , but the problem is I need to add a program to time the message correctly so she doesn't get mad at me for not being able to stalk her targets . '
The drawing was finished , but Ceil found a problem ' This looks like an artwork rather than those commision works she always see in that digital space ' Themiel walked to the door of the office , watching it open and Ceil appeared to hand him the drawing " You can keep this "
He looked at the drawing , surprised by the design , while Ceil worried about convincing her sister ' Rein is not going to like some painting she prefers it looking like something or someone that can be profiled... How in the world can I make one that looks like that ? She doesn't seem to like any disembodied voices flirting with others '
Ceil was starting to feel that Rein likely wouldn't be attracted to that , so she just had to instead say... Rein looks at the message Ceil sent , telling her to stalk a very infatuated lover who is looking for ways to please their loved one , who is not known to look like anything .
Rein was completely confused at first ' Is she just using me like that , one time when she told me to spot for any cheaters so that the saint and hero couple can shake . She did want some artifact that the hero got '
She wonders what kind of gain Ceil could get , but she couldn't possibly care . The incredibly infatuated lover to an unknown lover spawns a lot of scenarios in Rein's mind , who feels excited to learn more about this relationship that Ceil doesn't plan to explain further .
' Maybe she wants to investigate because Ordo has a high position ? Or maybe the lover is very reclusive and hides too many secrets ? ' Rein wondered if she should look into this lover too ' If she doesn't tell me what to look out for other than stalk the couple , which isn't that hard , then she can only blame herself if I only find a genuine couple who loves each other ... Although that infatuated lover might be a bit possessive if Ceil doesn't know what the other looks like . '
That thought also spawns a lot of scenarios that Rein would love to find out .
...
Zaun looks at the private message sent by Ceil and replied "Welt doesn't have an image , they only talk to me and rarely show themselves" he sent the text and wondered what Ceil was up to . He remembers the questions that she would keep asking whenever he fought against someone akin to an area boss .
He remembers that this is one of the questions Ceil would answer when he asked once " Did your sister ask for more questions again ? " Welt asked and Zaun replied " It's nothing important " " A lot have said that same phrase holding something important back "
Zaun sighed at that remark and said " She is curious about what you look like . Ceil is just a very curious person to begin with " ' It's strange knowing that I'm talking to someone who is only of four years in age ' Welt thought .
" So she is simply curious ? " Zaun nodded " Does she know about what your mother is doing ? " " Why you ask ? " " Yuni has been far too quiet at the demon realm , it seems like she has been training too quietly " Welt explained while Zaun recalls Yuni's second account training .
" Mom trained for a long time with her second account , so it would make sense that she is training quietly " " But why ? " Zaun thinks about how interested Yuni was in visiting several systems and pulled out a copy of his memory .
" Here , why don't you look at it " Welt was surprised about the memory being given " It's the least I should do since you are taking care of my training too " Welt takes the memory and plays the conversation that Zaun had with his mother .
...
" Mom , why do you visit these worlds ? " Zaun asked while Yuni's current account thought " I'm curious " " Like Ceil " she chuckled " You four are indeed parts of me , but I also like things you guys don't like too " Yuni pulled out a copy of memory just like Zaun had done and showed the many sights that she had seen in the birthworld .
" Our birthworld is very big , so much to experience " She pulled memory after memory and continued to show and tell " See this port , it connects to a bigger underwater kingdom " " Rein would like that " " There are a lot of fish to farm " " Naul " " History ? " " Ceil " " Great armies " " Me "
Yuni sighed " The point is , there is a lot to experience " Yuni projects several more memories , each depicting not just fights , libraries , art and vast lands . But also hints of the world system's existence , how they can mold the law of these worlds .
" I want to see a lot of worlds with world systems like these , which is why you should learn to program these world systems . Strange things they are , built like some god , but they don't feel alive . You know those admins right ? "
" Yes , they are very weak , I could probably beat them with this new account " Yuni sighed with disappointment " Point is , they teach you a lot of things about the world systems with their experience , so you should learn from them . You might be able to make training much harder , you know "
Yuni's expression was very recognizable and Welt recalls that this was like within that four-year time frame , hence the lack of difference compared to current Yuni . But this Yuni that they are seeing has a voice , she wasn't silent as they thought or as weak due to the challenges limiting her presence .
' She is obviously trying to take advantage of Zaun's desire for strength ' " Now you gotta keep learning about the world system . It's not something you should focus on entirely , but because it's something we don't know a lot about . But we'll keep learning about it , try to learn as much as you can from the admins . Fighting the people in the way of that knowledge is also important , so how about we get this world cleared so we can meet with its admin "
Yuni had so much emotion coming out of it , which made Welt more curious about it . They have been watching a lot of great characters throughout the many playthroughs to see which ones were eligible to bring in to the regression plan theirs .
" Zaun , can you show me more ? "26Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNInyRna86
