"I was wondering where you girls were!" I sighed happily, flying with my wings to greet the two of them.

Astraea was the daughter of the System Master, a Supreme Goddess-Rank System Goddess that was created by the fusion of all the System Gods that merged into one. She's cute, and has… well, all of their personalities merged into one.

So she harbors a lot of love towards me because I pretty much helped her free herself from her father's control and everything else. The System Master is now our ally, but he used to be the major, annoying antagonist of my life.

And Andromeda is the Artificial Intelligence of the personal System I held, the one I had created especially to grow powerful and freed from the System master's control.

Eventually, after surrendering to me, Astraea, and the System Master boosted Andromeda's powers even more, she can manifest herself and resemble and adorable android girl with big, neon blue eyes.

"Sorry for not going to the surface to eat with everyone, Kireina-sama, we were busy…" Andromeda sighed, as I hugged her metallic and silicon-made body.

"I'm sorry too, after helping her and father a lot, I was too exhausted and fell asleep…" Sighed Astraea.

"Just what happened?" I wondered.

"Well, the thing is, since those huge cracks appeared and since that vessel of the Necrotic plane Ruler emerged that the entire World of Genesis has become destabilized. The Laws, pillars of this world, are slowly collapsing apart." Andromeda explained.

"This has caused the System to take a lot of damage, and all across our world it has begun to fail and glitch due to the huge influence of otherworldly beings not registered on it that are trying to take advantage of the System and gain its powers for themselves…" Astraea sighed.

"That's happening?" I asked in shock. "And who is doing this exactly?"

"Perhaps any of those powerful beings. The Necrotic Ruler most likely has already stolen a part of the Genesis System, even when he has been temporarily defeated now…" Astraea sighed.

"The other powerful beings in the dimensions invading us must be doing similar things. As of now, the most dangerous are the ones within the Spiritual Plane…" Andromeda sighed. "A huge war is currently happening between many Gods of this world and them! There are two factions from what I've detected."

"Indeed, the Gods that work for me had gone there and told me so." Flora nodded. "Also, a large chunk of your allied gods went to fight too, to hold back the invasion."

"So that's where Truhan and Celica must be, right?" I wondered.

"Yeah, them and several other of our friends and warriors, like the Monkeys, the Elemental Lords, and the Chimeras moved there. Also, most of our Vampire Allies." Said Rimuru.

"I see… so all of this chaos is provoking a lot of destruction in Genesis, the laws are destabilizing, the System is breaking apart…" I sighed. "But what about ours? Is it being affected?"

"Not so much thanks to Astraea's help!" Said Andromeda.

"I'm using all the powers I can to stabilize it and keep it isolated from the main System, which is the one currently being predated." Said Astraea. "Kireina-sama, now that you're here… Is there something you could do?"

"Hmm, well, yes, of course I can do something." I smiled. "That's why I came here. And, ah well…" I decided to present the rest of the friends from Grand Terra to my wives.

"So Frank has a Trait that is literally a System?!" Andromeda asked. "Is that true, traveler from another world?!" The robot girl floated around him and started analyzing his body and soul structure.

"Y-Yes, more, or less. I have left behind my Galaxy Realm behind in another place of the Universe right now, so my body as it is currently as strong as… Probably a Supreme God at the peak, maybe a weak World Devourer?" Wondered Frank. "Anyways, the Trait carries anywhere I go, and it can be shared with anybody I want too, but I felt it was counter producent before because of the other thing we acquired in Grand Terra."

"The Soul Book." I explained.

"Soul Book?!" Andromeda and Astraea were both intrigued about what that could be.

"Right now I'm showing you the status, but it seems it is impossible to be seen by others." I sighed. "Unless I project my own vision into an image everyone can see! [Divine Illusion Magic]: [Eyesight Projection Image]"

FLUOOOSH!

A large projection of what my eyes could see emerged in front of everyone, showing them the Soul Book System, I browsed trough all of it, showing them every detail of it.

"I-Incredible!" Andromeda was shocked. "This is like a unique system that develops naturally within a person's soul and Origin?! And it can only manifest within Grand Terra, you say? Maybe… that world's Origin World Fragment you mentioned before could have something to do with this power!"

"Maybe." I said. "But we haven't found out enough to confirm all theories… Brunhild seems to have a connection with the Ancient Gods that "created" Grand Terra, but she's still figuring those powers and memories."

"Yeah, I'm sorry… It might take a little while before I can find out anything that could be of use." Brunhild apologized.

"I-It's fine, I think that with what we've got, it should be enough." Astraea said. "Although we can't see the Soul Book, now that there's so many here holding it, we can easily share it through the System Kireina-sama has made… And the perfect pillar to stabilize it and never make it so it loses power or is corrupted is… With Frank's Trait."

"I'll help in anything I can!" Frank said with a confident nod. "I can control my System to a great extent, and actually, she has developed her own personality and mind too, I've neve showed her before because I was too weakened to manifest her, but it should be possible now that I've grown stronger without my Galaxy Realm. [System Administrator Manifestation]!"

FLAAASH!

Suddenly, the figure of a woman made of neon blue divine and spiritual energy emerged, with long silver hair, glancing around with blue eyes.

"If Frank says so, I'll help you with everything I have." She said. "We've never ever tried to merge Systems together though… But it is worth a try if this can also benefit him!"
