I knew exactly what this power was: it was Frank's [System] Trait, tied to his Soul Origin. A reality-altering force, much like my own Trait.
Traits are imnsely powerful, yet incredibly rare. I possess a few myself. In fact, I can even steal the Traits of others, if I consu them.
That's how I acquired the [Reincarnation] Trait from Nirvana Deus, a formidable agent of a Constellation who had reincarnated as a Demon in service to Satan.
He was the one who revealed the truth to , likely sent by the Constellations allied with my "sisters." They punished for defying their tyranny, cursing to reincarnate for millions of years, always forgetting my past lives.
My final reincarnation was as a "disgusting" Chaos Spawn. Now that I've endured their punishnt, they want dead so I can return to them. He was an agent of those despicable beings who treated like a toy.
That encounter shattered my perspective and forced to reflect deeply on my identity. But now, having arrived in this world, my mind has stabilized. I no longer feel that way.
If anything, I'm grateful to have co here and rged with my Parallel Self. To inhabit a fragile mortal body again, to experience family from birth, to have parents...
Chaos was a good mother. Rembering my ti with her brings joy, though our interactions were too few to compare.
Anyway, Frank possesses a Trait of imnse power, like [Reincarnation], which allowed Nirvana Deus to reincarnate endlessly, retaining all mories.
His Trait is Universal Grade.
Mine, [Defiance], was born from my existence as the daughter of Primordial Chaos. It may even be a manifestation of my Ancient Power as the "sister" of the Usurpers of Destiny. It is Reality Grade, the highest tier.
Frank, being the son of an Overseer—half Overseer, half human—inherited vast cosmic power. He grew even stronger through his own life before we t.
Overseers exist beyond the Universal Realm, so naturally, his Trait is at least Universal Grade.
His System is absurdly powerful, surpassing mine. Mine was an enhanced copy of Genesis' System, a Divine Construction created by Genesis, my sister, daughter of Chaos and The One.
Currently, Frank's System resides within my Cosmic Realm, rged with my own to form the Ultimate System I now possess. The Grand Terra System was also integrated, resulting in a truly overwhelming power.
Yet Frank remains here with a separate System and a new Status. This suggests his Trait, "System," isn't a singular construct. It might be the ability to create Systems, any kind he desires. But he's never fully understood it.
Even before arriving here, he may have been unaware of its true nature. Perhaps those who placed him in this Dungeon knew more and are exploiting him, using him as one of the "Cores" of this world to siphon his power.
That is why I must save him.
Anyway, that is all I know and have speculated about Frank's System.
It remains mysterious and incredibly unique. His old System, now rged with mine, rests in my Cosmic Realm.
She occasionally interacts with Androda and Astraea, and they have beco close friends. I've heard she explores the Realm whenever possible.
She is still deeply worried about Frank, but I've kept her updated.
Later, I'll show her what I witnessed today to lift her spirits, though she might get jealous instead, since Frank just created another System.
"So anyway, with this power, I was able to undergo a Class Change Trial," Frank explained. "I don't think I've ever done one before, so sothing in my System definitely shifted. It might have been influenced by the Spear I Traced and Copied from Elfina. I gained new abilities and beca stronger. I'm sure you noticed."
"I see... so that's what happened," Harumi nodded. "A Class Change Trial? That sounds so nerdy."
"You say that, but you like gas, Harumi. I know who you are," Erika giggled. "She acts cool, but she's a secret gar. She loves dating sims, and she plays Gacha gas too."
"W-What?! Shut up, Erika!" Harumi blurted, flustered.
"Haha, well, it's nice to know we have sothing in common," Frank smiled. "I've always loved gas. I imrsed myself in them throughout my childhood after my father left. My mother... she wasn't in the best ntal state afterward.
Video gas and toys were all I had. They beca my identity. Even after moving to Japan, when my mother remarried and had a daughter—my little sister—things improved.
We had more money, and my stepfather bought every console I wanted and any ga I asked for, as long as I kept my grades up. So I worked hard to earn all the new Dragon Quests, Final Fantasies, Resident Evils, and more."
"That's so sweet," I said with a smile. "Your stepfather sounds like a wonderful man if he encouraged you like that."
"Yeah, he is," Frank nodded. "Honestly, I rember so little about my biological father. I stopped caring about him. I'm happy with the life I have now. That is why I fight to protect it."
"Hm..." Harumi nodded. "Maybe your power was born from that passion. I envy that—I wish I had sothing like it."
"Well, Harumi, you're a Dhampir with incredible strength and powerful magic," Matsuo said. "I think you're doing just fine."
"Yeah, don't get cocky, sister," Mammon added. It was still awkward when he called her that.
"Ugh, you've been so quiet I almost forgot you were here," Harumi muttered, annoyed.
"You don't have to make that face," Mammon sighed. "What would Mother think?"
"Shut up," Harumi rolled her eyes. "Anyway, Frank... you visited another world? How does that even work?"
"I'm not sure. A portal opened, I entered it, and voices from statues resembling angels told to complete a trial by choosing certain aspects," Frank said. "I chose sothing related to Humility and was thrust into a strange trial. After completing it, I gained imnse power. And when I left that world, just as it was collapsing, I convinced the souls within the statues to follow , to give them a second chance. That is how I t Michael and her siblings."
"Did you say M-Michael?!" Mammon gasped.
