Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 1085 - Revelations

-----

The Worldʼs Will, after seeing all of what Kireina had done, couldnʼt help but rage in complete anger and frustration…

”Worldʼs Will, youʼve grown too old now, everything angers you, relax for a bit, youʼre losing your cool.” Sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Losing my cool?! First she became a Supreme Goddess, later Hel did so too, and those disgusting Undead emerged, now she makes a new Dao that defies logic and then she begins to drain the power of my world?! Do you think this merits me to relax, sit down, and drink a cold tea while chatting about meaningless things like you little worms like to do?!” roared the Worldʼs Will.

”Now youʼre calling me little worm? After all Iʼve done to aid you?” sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Ah… No. I mean… Sorry…” sighed the Worldʼs Will.

The Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny sighed.

”A lot of things are going on. We cannot simply sit idle, I know, but it wonʼt help us to freak out over it if it canʼt help either. It will only weaken us. And thatʼs what Kireina wants at the end, doesnʼt she?” sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Maybe youʼre right… Amongst all these detestable Supremes, youʼre the nicest person that has inhabited my world… Thank you for being at my side.” Sighed the Worldʼs Will.

”Eh? Itʼs nothing… It is very rare to see an entity such as you getting emotional…” sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Donʼt make fun of me…” said the Worldʼs Will.

”You most of the time act as something similar to an entity without feelings, but you have many of them, donʼt you? Sigh… Kireinaʼs existence threatens your life because she seeks to escape this world with the other Supremes. If that happens, the world will end and you will weaken to the point of dying, right?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Indeed. I will weaken to the point where I could die, and she can use such an opportunity to eat me. I donʼt want to negotiate with her either, because that will most likely involve giving up the world Iʼve worked so hard to make develop and nourish while using it as a way to maintain my life… giving it up would be like giving her my heart, lungs, and stomach!” sighed the Worldʼs Will.

”I think she could escape on her own if she wanted, right? But she doesnʼt. She seems very attached to this world and even the Supreme Gods that had become the pillars of this world. I suppose she desires to help them escape.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”Thatʼs right… Even if I were to offer her to willingly leave with her allies, she wouldnʼt do it. She had grown attached to this world too much… Ungh. I wonder if this is the work of my mother. Does she despises me as a failure of an existence so much that she sent my young sister here to slay me for good? Damned Chaos! And she acts so innocently and nicely with Kireina, while Kireina is completely unaware of the manipulative monster she really is…” sighed the Worldʼs Will.

”I donʼt think it goes that far, Kireinaʼs fall into the Bottom Stratum of the Universe Structure was due to the incident with the Overseers, wasnʼt it? She didnʼt send her here directly. It was mere casualty. And in fact, your grandson was the one that brought her here to make mayhem. Blame yourself, it is your own fault that sheʼs here now.” Said the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny...

The Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny knew that the Worldʼs Will had settled herself up from the start. After all, this was all her fault from the beginning. She should had never given free will and inner consciousness to her System grandson…

Indeed, the System Master was not her son, it was her grandson.

There was… a mysterious and unknown entity that came before him, the one that actually gave birth to him, and the one that actually lacked a consciousness and was but a giant living computer.

While the System Master is like the administrator, the System Gods are the Moderators, then… who is the real root behind the entire System?

This entity was the direct child of the Worldʼs Will.

”Donʼt mention that ungrateful man. And yes, I should had told the System to not make him conscious, but the System did it without consulting me. It seems that by lacking emotions and humanity, it wanted to see how a version of itself with it could develop. And this mess came out of it.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”And revoking the System is impossible now because it merged with the Worldʼs Origin Core Laws. Destroying it means destroying a part of the Worldʼs Origin Core. It already had fragmented a few times, more times might be fatal to you, which has your lifeblood connected to it.” Said the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”I know… At least I still got a major control over the general System thanks to my child, but even then, the child it produced cannot be controlled by me, and are defying me… Now that Kireina has somehow managed to control the system without I even realizing it and had done so many insane things I donʼt even have any idea of what they are, sheʼs becoming a menace that I must defeat at all costs… but doing so would cost a lot of energy, enough that, after defeating her, I might weaken, and this would be the golden opportunity for the Supreme Gods to defeat me back… How frustrating.” Sighed the Worldʼs Will.

”Thatʼs why we must employ my own power? But even then, it cannot be possibly done completely…” said the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”I know what we could do. Kireina pretends to go to Helheim, she most likely wants to defeat Hel for whatever reason, and most likely will fight those Supreme God-level Necrotic Lords from that Netherworld Realm that came to our World thanks to Helʼs stupidity… We can employ them for us.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”You mean… giving them a hand?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”What else than that? Indeed, giving them a hand! I had not considered it, but this seems to be the right thing to do now… Even if it seems insane and goes against my own beliefs, we are in desperate times, and desperate times calls for desperate measures…” said the Worldʼs Will.

”Sigh… Fine. But… I am worried.” Sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”About what?” asked the Worldʼs Will.

”About you. What if they try to betray us after helping them? Giving them too much help might end up backfiring…” said the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Hmm… In that case, weʼll make sure to create a few plans if such a thing happens.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”As obstinate as always… Youʼre hopeless, Genesis.” Said the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Donʼt call me by such a name… Although I guess it is the name of the world too.” Sighed the Worldʼs Will.

”It is a pretty name. We are in desperate times now. And our lives had begun to run real danger now. We are in dire situation and… more importantly, it seems that not even the Fate I control can aid us completely…” muttered the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”And so?” asked the Worldsʼ Will, a bit flustered.

”How has the ride been?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Wha… What do you mean?” asked the Worldʼs Will.

”Have you enjoyed your life, even if a little bit?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”My life… Enjoyed it?” wondered the Worldʼs Will.

”Iʼve seen her. Kireina… She has lived less than us, but she has enjoyed life so much more. I am jealous of everything she has.” Sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”I donʼt get it. My life has always been about growing stronger, and about… growing stronger…” muttered the Worldʼs Will, realizing something.

”Thereʼs certainly something more, right? Whatʼs the purpose behind it all other than survival?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Why have you gotten so philosophical all out of the sudden? It is annoying.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”Living so long is more than just raging over my plans failing… Sometimes I have attacks of wrath, but other times I enter into serene state. The wisdom and things I have accumulated within me tells me what I should do or not, it tells me to be calm, I suppose.” Sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”Being calm wonʼt help, but it wonʼt be bad either.” Said the Worldʼs Will.

”Genesis, since you were born, what else other than survival instincts have you felt?” asked the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”I… What have I felt? What else would I feel…?” asked the Worldʼs Will.

”Emotions? Happiness? Fulfillment? Regret? Sorrow? Love…” sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.

”…”

The Worldʼs Will fell silent. She recalled her turbulent past, and her coming of existence.

A being born from the power of The One and Chaos. Their second child after the first one which went astray into the Universe to one day divide itself in two and then form two parallel worlds where it is developing as countless lives, she was born intelligent for the get-go unlike her older sibling.

She tried to comprehend the world or what she was, but quickly found out that Chaos, her mother, seemed strange. She was cold, robotic, and almost lacked any emotion.

It had tried to protect her by keeping her close to her, but many times it ended failing, as Genesis got into troubles when wild Cosmic Beasts once targeted her.

Chaos… at that time, only looked.

Why? Why was she only looking? Her daughter was in danger, yet she only looked…

Although Genesis lacked general knowledge about how a mother was supposed to be. She knew from the get-go that her mother was strange, perhaps, these emotions she developed… she might be happier if she hasnʼt done it, like her older sibling.

Emotions… Genesis hated emotions. It made her feel bad, it gave her suffering to a life that would only be dull without them, but more acceptable.

Until one day, she decided to separate from her mother and go away.

Chaos tried to stop her, but at the end, she flew away, to never return.

Through the cosmos, she fell, she was attacked, and sometimes, she managed to survive.

Even as a being born so strong, there were being stronger than her… she perhaps wouldnʼt had undergone such hardships if she didnʼt had these annoying emotions.

”I hate emotions.” Said Genesis.

”I see…” sighed the Supreme Goddess of Fate and Destiny.
