Within the vast darkness of the endless cosmos, an entity rested for eons.
It seemed to have no definite form than endless darkness, many dark colors converging together into a shade of black that engulfed it all, some of Earth's experts would attribute such thing to a black hole, but those that were knowledgeable about the cosmos such as some Supreme Gods would be capable of telling that this thing was simply not a 'thing' but an entity.
The entity rested above the cosmos and filled it all, it was in here before and after existence took place, and filled it all. From within the world was formed and the countless primordial were born across the infinite parallels.
However, for a certain and unknown reason, it seemed to not be capable of exerting its power as it used to do. Ethereal chains that bind its existence, cause, and effect were set tightly within the planes of reality.
For eons, it has rested and existed as it was, until on one occasion, existence within the vast cosmos appeared that connected to it, a child.
And after a bit, the children grew their connection closer and closer to it.
"My child… So, you have made yet another breakdown… The future that awaits you is already written, but you have the power to rewrite it as you may… Here, have the pieces that you require, the ones that always had belonged to you…"
From within the endless dark colors twisting together through the vastness of infinity, creatures made from within the chaos emerged, crossing through space and time by taking roads made my dreams, walking towards their herald, their 'main body'.
Kireina ended up splitting her consciousness and body, leaving one body to upgrade and improve upon Kiroid, while the other decided to sleep and recharge energy as her mind seemed very dizzy and tired.
And just as she managed to fell asleep, she was shrouded in darkness as her consciousness drifted to a different world.
"I should be capable of awakening a few more body parts of the Calamity Abyss Demon now… That is mostly why I went to sleep, to begin with" she said while floating around the empty landscape, trying to find the creatures often sent by what called itself 'Chaos' that helped her in awakening the Calamity Abyss Demon Skills.
Kireina pondered for some time about what the Calamity Abyss Demon Skills truly were. According to their descriptions, they were pieces of a creature born from Chaos…
But why was she capable of channeling its powers through fragments of the creature encapsulated into Skills?
What makes her wonder, even more, is how such skills came to be by just fusing hundreds of different skills together through the course of her life and adventures.
She knew that she could acquire even more power through Skill Fusion, even if the Skills were very weak coming from random monsters she ate, when they fused together their strength would often surpass the power that the skills together could exert. Fusing Skills seemed like an incredible way to get rid of the many Skills she had while also powering up even more.
But now that she had done it so much, most of her used Skills became these sets of Calamity Abyss Demon Skills, even the armor she wore became the Skin of such creature, and her transformation Skills were assimilated into her physique and psyche through the Nyarlathotep Class effect.
Kireina had begun to think that even before reincarnating in this world, that she might have something within her soul that connected her to Chaos somehow… but that also meant that she was, in fact, not an ordinary human before…
But how could that even be? She remembered it clear that she was always a normal human on Earth, her life there as a young neet man was rather peaceful, and if it has not been for that strange disease he caught, he would still be alive there, most likely playing games, or reading light novels.
Could her connection with Chaos be something that had happened before coming to Genesis, or was it something that was made when she came to Genesis and evolved her powers until the point where she awakened Chaos Attribute Magic.
For now, Kireina had too many questions and no one to answer them, even if she were to ask Agatheina and the other gods, they could only offer their theories or a few small clues that they could come out with, and such clues and theories might be just the same as hers.
Even after having gotten the memories of the Gods she had eaten, even by browsing through the vast knowledge and information given to her by their devoured souls, there was nothing she could formulate, even Gods who had lived for thousands of years were almost completely clueless about outside entities, and none of them had explored the space outside of Genesis, not even Kheseerad who had wondered the Astral Road had any clues, as he had barely investigated the outside space of Genesis, which seemed somehow hostile to even Gods like him.
The only thing she could do is keep growing stronger, as it was rather obvious that those at a higher status in the God's society, such as Great Gods and above knew more than her and any God in her Pantheon. Agatheina's knowledge was already outstanding for someone at a Rank of God, as even some other divine entities at her same rank were not as knowledgeable as her. She was indeed a woman that liked to gossip and buy information whenever it appeared.
Perhaps, if she were to become a Great Goddess or a Supreme Goddess, Kireina might be capable of discovering more secrets about the world that those below those ranks could learn.
Supreme Gods, in particular, seemed to be very close to the World's Will for some reason, perhaps due to having a great authority over Genesis. All of the Supreme Gods were maintaining the world's pillars after all, while the other Gods were either supporting them or maintaining the Realms where they inhabited.
No Supreme God was not essential to Genesis, The Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin maintained the precious Attribute of Life, pretty much maintaining all living beings.
The Supreme God of Space and Creation and the Supreme God of the Star's Ocean maintained the space named Astral Road and also the many Spatial Layers that made up the world of Genesis, maintaining the creation on stability. The Supreme God of Star Oceans' strongest attribute is Light, albeit he also supports the Space Attribute, and without him, the light would not be as powerful across the world of Genesis.
The Supreme God of Time maintained the flow of time constantly going through Genesis, just as the other Supremes, he was essential to Genesis as the world was remade after its destruction, becoming an artificial world that needed the constant support of the god's divine authorities to maintain afloat.
The Supreme Goddess of Reincarnation and Souls kept all the souls of all living and undead beings constantly reincarnating through the cycle of reincarnation that she created, and through her divine authority, the souls of Genesis were able to develop furthermore than those that came from other worlds without her presence, such as Kireina's former soul from Earth.
The Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny maintained the order of the events, history, and the world's course through her divinity, writing down the destiny and fate of every living being in the world, so the world could maintain order and not be destroyed as it happened before. She was an essential Goddess that helped the Worlds' Will create Epics.
There were supposed to be more Supreme Gods than these ones, but these were the ones that Kireina was aware of, with two that seemed to be quite closer to the Realm of Vida in the Supreme God of the Star Ocean and the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.
If she could ask them more about the world and the entities outside of it, she was sure that they would hold some valuable clues… but asking Supreme Gods such things seemed impossible at the moment.
For now, she could only keep advancing through her life and destroy every challenge that comes her way, while growing stronger from them, and through the new strength, slowly unravel the mysteries of Genesis.
Suddenly, within her dreamscape, a void opened within the white space, revealing three creatures that jumped out of it with fervent energy.
Each one was a bit similar to the one that represented the Eyes of the Calamity Abyss Demon, as they were masses of pure darkness with red and purple colors twisting inside of them constantly. The three entities had their own characteristics outside of this, though.
One of them was a mass of shadows, fat, and enormous appendages, and pulsating organs that seemed to be amorphous lungs, the creature seemed to be made entirely out of fat as well, and the shadows coated it as if they were a cloak. As it moved through the white floor, it left a trail of grease behind itself.
The other seemed to be enormous, clawed talons, resembling those of dragons or birds, the talons themselves had giant claws that gripped the floor and were even capable of destroying it or leaving large scratches.
And the third one was an amalgamation of enormous scarlet, purple, and black crystal spheres shrouded in shadows, the spheres floated ominously as they released dark sparks around themselves.
Although incredibly intimidating, Kireina seemed unfazed by their appearance, as she floated in midair and glanced them slowly walk towards her.
"Main body… Main body…" roared the entities in unison.
Kireina desired to ask these creatures more about their origin before letting them become one with her, so she floated atop their bodies and spoke.
"Calm down all of you, you can become one with me in a bit. But first, could you answer me some questions?" she asked politely, as the three creatures stopped moving, glancing at her by moving their masses towards her direction atop their bodies.
"Main body… Questions?"
"Questions? Questions?"
"What question? Ask! Ask!"
The three entities seemed cooperative enough for Kireina to feel pleased by their answer, she smiled as she asked them.
"From where did you come from? How far have you traveled?" she asked.
"We come from…"
"Chaos…"
"We took…"
"Little…"
"Time"
The creatures spoke as if they were a single entity, finishing each sentence with their words. They had stated that they came from Chaos, just as the previous entity did, and that they had taken very little time to come in here by taking a shortcut, which Kireina assumed to be her dreams.
"Just like the previous one… from Chaos… I wonder if I should go there again… No, it was already dangerous to move my consciousness there, if it wasn't because of the entity there sending me back, my consciousness would have been sucked into the void… Then what could I ask you to get more clues? Hm… Do you know who Chaos is?" asked Kireina.
"Chaos…"
"Chaos is… what fills it all…
"Chaos is the… thing that is always…"
"There…"
"It fills it all and it's always there? Yet… it is an entity and not simply the nothingness? This Chaos reminds me of Greek Mythology, where it always existed and was the primordial entity that brought birth to all the other primordial, creating the world afterward… It is the entity that always existed and filled it all… Or was it? It is unclear if this entity is even that, to begin with, it could be something completely different than what I believe it could be…" said Kireina as the creatures stood in silence.
"By judging in the way, you three answer, it seems that you don't really have much clue either, albeit you were born from within it, it is not like you spent several years talking with the entity… But still, I might as well ask. How strong is this entity? Is it related with Genesis somehow?" asked Kireina.
"Don't know…"
"…"
"No clue…"
It seemed that the creatures simply did not know, they were unable to answer Kireina's questions, and seemed just as clueless as her…
"Sigh… at least I tried. Very well then, come" said Kireina, flying towards the creatures as they happily leaped towards her, the masses of flesh, talons, and crystal orbs alongside the shadows merged with her as she felt new abilities awakening within her.
