"I was sent here after acquiring Origin Essence by passing the trials of a certain tower created by yourself. I'm supposed to gain control over the sands of that continent." Darius answered truthfully.
Vena nodded and a screen appeared before her with an immaterial keyboard as well. "Right, you said the na was Faust or sothing. Let check real quick."
She tapped for a bit and seed to rear the information that ca up seriously before chuckling. "Oh, THAT Faust. You know, this might give you even more existential dread, but I created your world in a separate void for the purpose of raising generals for myself. Most of the fellows I sent there didn't amount to anything, but…!!"
Vena's eyes glead with excitent. "There is one guy I sent there recently who is absolutely promising! I haven't seen natural intelligence like his since my first successful reincarnator, Jax. Looking at how powerful Jax beca, I have great hopes for this one!"
Vena then went back to her screen. "Though, I should check up on him more often. I left him to his devices and programd an AI to see to his needs while he accumulates power. By now, that duo should have torn up your world."
She chuckled and then rembered sothing. "Oh right, what was your na again? If I check it, I'll be able to find what exactly you're describing by browsing the world logs."
Darius smiled. "Darius Stone."
Vena nodded passively. "Right, Darius Stone… let's see here. Oh, Darius Stone, that was quick. Hm? This profile…"
Vena frowned as she read through whatever was in front of her. The more she read, the more her face beca stranger and stranger, her mouth dropping. She then gazed at Darius, then the screen before her, then Darius again.
Darius only smiled softly.
"Holy shit!" Vena exclaid as she jumped from her seat.
"You're not supposed to be here! You aren't supposed to co here until you beco a Supre! Wait, why are you only an Adept? And a fresh one to boot?!"
"It's been like 8 years since you were spawned into that world! With all the advantages given to you, even if you haven't ascended, you should have at the very least beco a Grandmaster, on the level of a God!" Vena spoke hyper-fast, her words smashing on each other.
Then, she raised a hand up. "There's an easier way to find out."
She grabbed towards Darius, and he was shocked to see a greyish orb leave his body and enter Vena's hands. It looked like a small laptop-like icon covered with a greyish light.
Darius was shocked to see that thing had been in him and wondered what it was, but guessed it might be the Supre System given the clues. When he turned to Vena to see if she understood what it was, he was further stunned.
Vena wore an expression of confusion, her head tilted as she smiled foolishly while gazing at the thing that was floating in her palm.
"What the fuck is this?" She asked with that strange smile still on her face, like she didn't even know whether she should laugh or frown.
She gazed towards Darius who offered an explanation. "That should be the system that I have been using since I got to Faust, no?"
Vena seed even more confused at that. "That's not possible. I've stopped using trash like this since Jax's era."
She shook her head and a few threads connected her to the grey orb as she closed her eyes. "Forget it, let see for myself what the source of all this confusion is."
Like this, she seemingly interfaced with the Supre System for a few seconds. Darius watched her quietly for a bit before turning his attention to the astral room, which was quite a lovely place to be in.
Before he could admire it any further, Darius felt his soul scream in terror as he felt awash with horror. He turned his head to see Vena whose body had erupted with a black light that seed to want to devour all light in the world.
She opened her eyes, revealing a wealth of anger that Darius could see was on the verge of exploding. Vena didn't focus on Darius but turned her 'play area' from before and spoke coldly.
"Computer, summon AI-3456534509 this instant."
Imdiately, the computer flashed and ran so data, before a golden light ford into the body of a sophisticated android that was quite tall.
{Greetings, great Goddess Vena! I am AI-3456534509, aka the Central Assistant Entity for Slaves Acting Roles, CAESAR. How can I help you today?}
He greeted Vena in his usual chipper, inforcial-like tone then gazed at Darius at the back. Before Vena could even say anything, Caesar began mouthing off.
{Well, well if it isn't Darius Stone! It is not so great to see you here, as you are desecrating the holy area of the Great Goddess Vena! Why are you here when you should still be mucking about in Faust?}
BAM!
Caesar's android body exploded into nothingness, before it got regathered, forming into a line of running code shaped like a human. It was then forced to its knees before Vena, who spoke slowly.
"AI-3456534509, Caesar, or whatever na you chose to go by. What, and I an WHAT is the aning of this rubbish?" Vena held out the Supre System.
Caesar seed to have sustained so form of damage from the earlier explosion, his usual chipper voice gone as he was laden with confusion and fear.
{G-Great Goddess, that is the System-based tool given to Darius Stone at the start of his journey, the Supre System.}
"This? THIS? YOU DARE TO CALL THIS A SUPRE SYSTEM?" Vena looked incredulously at the AI, wondering if her hearing was going bonkers.
"This rubbish is the earliest archetype of a system I made for reincarnators or transmigrators under my belt and has long been phased out. You just took it in its rawest and basest form then slapped the na 'Supre' on it." Vena spoke with derision, gnawing her teeth hard.
Caesar still seed confused by the Goddess' reaction. {Well, yes.. That is because a fellow like Darius Stone deserves the barest minimum, after all, he is only there to serve your grand purpose.}
