Before the ancient god of chaos breached the Chat Room, the silver moon was flying in the sky as the darkness of night was like a veil on the world.
The stars were shining in the sky, yet, they were nurous and sparkling, like a blanket across the vast darkness. This is sothing that you can't see, it's a rare scene in the modern era because of all the pollution.
In Konosuba's world, a scene like this isn't rare, after all, the nature of a simple technology world filled with an energy like mana is way more healthier than regular worlds. This raises the question if there's a god or a goddess responsible for this scenery. Although such a god isn't necessary to be present in the current reality where Kazuma lives.
However, such a scene had taken form in a world that experienced explosive growth in technology, which rendered a lot of people speechless and also surprised.
Despite the magnificent sight, another scene was taking place, a view that can not be explained by the word exaggerated.
In the deep void of space, the stars were flashing everywhere, like pearls under the light. The whole scene was vibrating with different colors, blue, red, purple, green, yellow, orange, and the mix between them were floating like giant clouds, which were genetic nebulas.
A few spinning discs were floating around the stars and nebulas, so of them were very close, which made them very big, yet, all of them were shining brightly. They were galaxies floating in space.
In the middle of this insane picture, a deep dark hole was twisting the space and ti. It was far bigger than anything in the vicinity, even light wasn't able to escape from that darkness. It was a supermassive black hole, however, despite being this close to other celestial bodies, the attraction force from the black hole didn't affect anything around it.
This scene was on a completely different level than the beautiful starry sky in the real world as it beca very pale in comparison. There were even one or two quasars far away in the distance.
However, in the middle, facing the supermassive black hole, is the most inconsistent area in all this place.
A small portion of the space gas of a dark blue nebula gathered together and made a form completely out of place, a couch. Sothing that shouldn't exist here. And on the nebula's couch, a person was sitting on the couch. However, his eyes were closed and his arms were resting on both sides of the couch, like he was sleeping in that position. Next to him, a card was floating in the space and spinning slowly.
Suddenly, the bright red necklace on his neck flashed with a green color. The green gem in the middle flashed a few tis before a deep voice sounded " What is going on here?"
With that voice, the young man's eyes twitched a little before opening directly, like he was just resting his eyes rather than sleeping.
"Oh, good morning, Ddraig. Although I don't think there's a day or night in this place" Looking at the deep void of space, Leo greeted the Red Dragon Emperor's soul in his necklace.
However, Ddraig didn't talk imdiately as he took a mont of silence before saying " I have to admit, that look of yours beca rather disturbing"
Hearing that remark, Leo's eyebrow twitched, but he only sighed before saying " Believe , this is beyond my control and I also want to stop it"
The beyond perfect look according to human's standards, coupled with the deep, different colored eyes that almost could reflect the whole cosmology here, made Leo sigh helplessly. He already went beyond the level of turning back, honestly, he doesn't like this at all, not at all!!
Each ti he rembers this, Leo will curse Venus and the logic that insists that Angels should be perfect than all humans. This shouldn't happen only because of the angel's physics, but Venus's concept was like throwing fuel on the fire.
"Then, what happened to your spiritual landscape?" Ddraig looked at the wonders of space shining brightly as he wondered what happened here.
"Oh, this. Well… Let's say, my mind was fucking with and this is the result of my retaliation" Leo shook his head at the cosmic scenery.
"Hah?" Ddraig wondered if he didn't hear that correctly as Leo sighed and told him a small story.
After sleeping(Knocking himself out), Leo shouldn't have any perception of the outside world, unless an enemy or an energy fluctuation appeared around him.
However, sothing has changed suddenly as Leo opened his eyes. He was standing in his spiritual landscape, but instead of being a pitch-black space, it beca the sa scene inside his Origin. The very, very deep ocean with the unfathomable cliff at the front.
Glancing at the cliff for a mont, Leo noticed the Tarot Card of the Fool was floating next to him and releasing a small golden light with a tiny platinum gleam. The light from the card brightened the darkness, illuminating the dark blue floor.
However, the picture on the card changed. The jester stopped laughing as he stood in front of the cliff with a blank expression.
"Did this beco so sort of the unchanging scenery of my heart or what?" Leo shook his head at the condition of his spiritual landscape before he got an idea.
Compared to the Origin's domain, the spiritual landscape is very flexible, which made Leo want to try to change the current picture into sothing else.
With a snape of his fingers, the deep ocean vanished and was replaced with a green forest, however, Leo stood in his place because just in front of him there was a cliff. Like the forest and earth was cut off at that position and turned into a bottomless cliff that the wind was whistling around it.
Leo didn't believe this as he started to change the scenery over and over. A river? It'll have a bottomless waterfall. A sea? It'll be cut off and turn into a cliff. A volcano? The magma will cool down and drop into a deep hole. Even a city will be cut in half just for the cliff to exist.
Reaching the limits of patience, Leo dropped the BigBang and manifested the cosmic scenery. However,... He stood there silently looking at the supermassive black hole.
Staring at the black hole with emotionless eyes, Leo had a pretty strong feeling that his mind is fucking with him. Like perceiving his emotions, a table appeared as Leo, who saw it, took a deep breath and flipped it over. It flew quickly and vanished inside the black hole.
Feeling a little better, Leo turned a nebula into a couch and sat down while noticing that he could use the Chat Room, well, it wasn't a surprise because he could use it inside his spiritual landscape during Asgard's accident.
He chatted with Saitama, who was the only mber online, before talking with Kaguya, then he knocked himself again, and now, he was awakened by Ddraig.
"Uh…" Ddraig was speechless by this small story before sighed and said" The more ti I spend with you, the more I can't understand what is going on in your mind"
"Hm? Is that so? Great!" Leo clapped his hands, which made Ddraig sigh again in annoyance. Even a Dragon will suffer with this guy.
"C'mon, don't be like that. Look, if you want to know sothing, why don't you just ask?" Leo looked at the necklace as Ddraig said " Are you sure you'll answer?"
"Nope" Leo answered imdiately as The Red Dragon Emperor took a deep breath and said "For soone aiming at power, you're really jumping everywhere..."
Without the need for to continue, Leo smiled as he chuckled and said " Really? Honestly, the purity of dragons is one of the few things I can agree on in DXD"
"The power is just a tool to achieve goals." Leo crossed his arms as he floated from the nebula and moved around.
Power can change people or turn situations, but in the end, it's still a re tool, which can be thrown away at any ti if Leo saw doing so as the best outco. This is the definition of power for him, even if he knows it's important, there are far more important things than it.
"If soone thinks power as sothing more than that, even more than themselves, then they're probably stroking their fragile ego or sothing" Leo chuckled as Ddraig beca silent before saying " A tool, huh?"
"Well, you're probably one of the few people I can trust my back to, so stop thinking deeply about it" Like seeing through Ddraig, Leo said with a small voice.
"*Sigh* You must be the most unique host I ever had" Ddraig sighed, but for so reason, the tone of his voice changed slightly.
"Like I said, that's good" Leo nodded with satisfaction as Ddraig laughed and said " Hahahaha! Let add the weirdest host, but I guess that's good too, after all, dragons aren't normal!"
"Well, normal is just an ever-changing logic put by humans, ugh, forget it, at least you get it. Hm?…" Suddenly, while looking at the cosmic scenery, Leo touched the back of his left shoulder.
There was a milky white star mark, which was glowing with very faint light. This is the Magic Crust of the incomplete Heaven's Feels.
Honestly, compared to what people say, the soul's injury isn't that painful. For sure it's more painful than a physical one, but Leo only found it static.
Yes, static. Compared to the physical pain, the soul's injury will stay at the maximum degree of pain and won't change at all, just sending the pain signals like there's no tomorrow!
"You okay?" Noticing this, Ddraig said as Leo shook his head while saying " No, nothing. Hmmm… Hey, Ddraig"
"What?" Ddraig noticed Leo looking at the necklace.
Thinking for a mont, Leo said "How about I show you an interesting scenery when I recover?"
"....." Ddraig didn't know why, but he has a bad feeling about this.
"Nah, don't worry. Although it isn't pretty like this one, I guess it's worth witnessing at least one ti" Leo said with a small voice, which made Ddraig confused.
Unlike the usual tone of his voice that sounds like he's planning sothing, Ddraig felt Leo's tone was calm and slightly hesitating. The problem is, he usually makes you know that he's planning sothing, but even so, you can't escape! So, this is weird for the dragon.
"*Sigh* I wonder how those guys are doing" Leo whispered as he looked at the galaxies and quasars in the distance.
{I hope they didn't finish the mission too quickly… Soone will gain 'weight', and that might beco a very problematic} Leo thought as he shook his head.
"Thelma, Aeons, Colonoth, and *sigh* True Will… This will be very troubleso" Saying so terms that made Ddraig confused, Leo calculated the ti as he noticed that it was almost the ti for his alarm to go off.
However, as he looked at the black hole and checked the situation out, his expression darkened imdiately. Taking a deep breath, Leo snapped his fingers. The cosmic scenery vanished like a bubble.
anwhile, in Kuoh town, inside a certain house and room. The sun slowly rose in the sky as the sunlight was slipping from the window to the room. The alarm clock next to the bed was going off like crazy.
*Crack*
Suddenly, an invisible force crushed the clock before it spun and turned into a small ball. The ball fell on the desk and continued spinning.
Leo was lying on the bed, however, he wasn't in a normal condition. His pupils beca a slit and his eyes were gleaming with mana, showing that his emotions weren't in a complete check.
Regardless, he didn't care as his brain was working at a high speed. His bed seems to be 2.13 centiters lower than usual and the temperature around his body is higher than normal.
And in front of him, a blond girl is holding his body like a pillow as she was sleeping soundly with nothing on her body except the blanket.
"Hahahaha!!" Ddraig was laughing at the current situation while rolling inside the necklace gem. He finally knew why Leo's expression was like he ate a fly.
{She… Invaded my room} The mana, which was almost turning into Alter Telesma, was rippling in Leo's eyes.
Despite him being unconscious or Nero having his mana, Leo still didn't understand how she could escape his perception and sneak up on him like this, but he didn't care! His room is off limits! Off-limits!
It's like you invited yourself into a dragon's lair, the hell's pit of a demon, or heaven that the angel guards. Which by surprise, he's all the above! Especially if you look at the things in his room!!
At the top of the bed, there's a large plushy of a blue, cute, and small devil with yellow eyes, or the small animal's plushies on the shelves. No soul shall walk out with full mories after seeing this place! Well, except his parents and Ddraig, who doesn't understand or bother with these things.
"Mmm…" Nero seed to notice sothing as she was slowly waking up, without noticing Leo's eyes that were glowing with mana.
Suddenly, Leo's eyes glanced at the side as the walls weren't able to stop his gaze. His mother was just next to his door and was about to open it.
Leo's expression beca odd. It's too much of a coincidence for his mother exactly when Nero was able to escape his preception.
"Wait…" Leo's eyes beca wide. Everything suddenly beca clear, too much clearer.
Nero rubbed her eyes slowly before she managed to wake up a little and said " Good mor-"
"Goodnight" Leo quickly tapped Nero's forehead. A wave of mana engulfed the surprised Nero before she returned to the Class Card state.
"Sorry, but this is a battle against the world!" Catching the Class Card, which was flashing, Leo's eyes sharpened as he stood up before his mother opened the door.
She wasn't all that surprised to see Leo awake. After discovering the potential system and recovering his mories, Leo always woke up early to train to make the maximum use of his ti. She told him that she needed him to go buy so things, as Leo agreed.
Leo nodded as he watched his mother leave before his expression darkened and said " Do you think you can make fall into a cliché?! Over my dead body! It's you or , DXD!"
Looking at the very familiar formula of a harem ani, Leo quickly guessed what was going to happen. This world's will think it can make him fall into such a cliché? Not even in its wildest dreams!!
"I didn't expect that to happen" Ddraig said with an odd expression, but Leo didn't care about his reaction as he opened the Chat Room.
Clearing his thoughts about the stupid laws of this world that sohow lead to these events, Leo started browsing the Chat Room.
He wanted to see if they passed the mission or not, but then, Leo lifted his eyebrow when he saw reports' ssages filling the Chat Room.
"It seems sothing interesting is happening. Hmmm…" Checking the ssages, Leo saw the date and ti on them as he felt weird.
{8 hours here are almost 6 days in Konosuba? But it wasn't like this… Did it change because of the mission?} Leo didn't find an answer, but well, he decided to stop and send two ssages.
However, when he did, he received a very 'big' surprise. The ancient god of chaos joined the Chat Room as Leo, who is a Beast, tried to save the world again, but he failed. So, he bailed imdiately.
[With the addition of Chaldea's channel, the Chat Room is about to reach the conditions to unlock a new quest system, the infected replicas. As an Admin, you have the authority to know this information before other mbers. We ask you to prepare and organize the situation with Chaldea's Admin Gudako to achieve better results]
However, Leo didn't care about that ssage or the Class Card that was vibrating in his hand. He felt the world darkened and everything was crumbling apart.
After trembling for a few seconds while his brain was simulating the possible bad endings, Leo cald down as his eyes beca firm.
"No!! I'll never give up!!" Leo recovered as he started to think. The transformation into the horror that can make Saitama look like a child hasn't been completed, in fact, maybe Ritsuka is still a normal person. As a Beast, he'll do his duty and save the world from the humans!!
"So, where can I complain? I want to call the manager on this shit! If you want chaos, just call an Eldritch god or sothing!!!" Leo started to look in the Chat Room, but then, he received a private ssage.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will): Hello, how may I help you?]
"What the hell are you doing here, wait..." Leo was surprised by the uninvited guest, but his expression changed after that.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): I'M THE MANAGER!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Fear you peasant!]
"...." Leo stared at the screen with a blank face. He has a strong feeling that the other world's wills had enough, and threw this guy here so they can relax a little.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): So, are you complaining about your Admin's authority? Nah]
Leo shook his head. He actually never cared about the Admin's identity or if there'll be other ones. He only cared about the ban hamr and the userna change disabling function, only those two are important for him. However, they took a part of his ability as an angry discord mode!
Honestly, it looks too much of an extra work identity, so if soone can share it, then he'll be rather happy to throw the work at them. But if it was Gudako… Leo shivered again.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): Heh, guess]
"Nope, not interested" Leo instantly refused to think about this.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): I would like to remind you of your debt, but let tell you sothing you'll be interested about… I'm the manager of the notes function!]
"It's you fucker!!" Leo snapped at that ssage. All those stupid remarks and notes were coming from this bastard!
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER):Yes, it's ! What are you going to do about it? Destroy ? Pfff, think of sothing new]
Taking a deep breath, Leo shook his head before saying " What are the infected replicas?"
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): I'm the stupid remarks manager, not the explanation manager! Go ask Boobs' power, 'he' has an interesting 'past' with them… Hehehe]
"DxD, huh?" Leo nodded at this remark.
[A Certain World's Will(ToAru World's Will/ THE MANAGER): But hey, I left you a small present, but for now, I'll watch your career with great interest]
"......." Leo stared at the last ssage before he sighed and fell on the bed again. He lost almost all his energy to do anything now.
[Writing with this primitive language is hard! Why can't I use an Eldritch one, anyway, I found the comnt for Gudako!]
[For a special person, you can't hide or run from the madness!]
"......." Leo just closed his eyes and decided to ignore all the reality for so ti.
anwhile, in Konosuba's world, Kaguya shook her head to clear the headache. Then, she took so very deep breaths, just to prepare her mind and heart.
{No, they can't send that abomination here! Be logical Kaguya, we kinda are saving the world, so sothing like that is unaccepted} Calming her heart, Kaguya looked at the Chat.
[Gudako(Chaldea's Admin): Um… Hello, can soone explain to this… Chat? It's called that, right?]
"Hmmm… Sounds like a normal person. A rare species in this Chat Room" Kaguya felt slightly relaxed, but she still didn't drop her guard.
[Advocate of Gender Equality: That na… It makes fear itself afraid]
[Bri-Bri: Stop scaring the new mber with your nonsense!]
[NEET Princess: We need to explain the Chat Room to an Admin?]
[Big Sister Lion: Oh, the new mber is a new authority figure]
[Gudako(Chaldea's Admin): Sorry, but I really don't know much about this. I only accepted the invitation because a screen that told that I can et, Lucifer]
[Advocate of Gender Equality:....]
[Bri-Bri: Eh?]
[Big Sister Lion: Ohhhhhh]
[NEET Princess: Oh my]
[Gudako(Chaldea's Admin): Eh? Did I say sothing wrong?]
[NEET Princess: No, no, no, but… Please take a seat and let's have a talk]
Currently, Kaguya was grinning for so reason while covering her mouth with her sleeve. She had a quite good feeling that this will be an interesting talk.
