1259 Kneel!
-----
The System Master was, as of now, resting over the clouds of his Divine Realm.
He sighed while looking at the night sky.
The moon atop the divine realm was shining brightly with its moonlight.
The moonlight bathed his internal world as his sharp white eyes seemed to be filled with contempt…
"So many things happened yesterday… To thing that after I tried so many things to grow stronger, eating two entire worlds were not enough… Just how powerful must I grow to reach the Realm above Supreme Gods… where did I go wrong?" he wondered.
"Now… I must ally Kireina from all people… how detestable." He sighed once more.
"If it wasn't because of my own mediocrity… Maybe if I had just devoured her while she was still weakened… the Origin Core of the child of Chaos could had been strong as a snack… Maybe I would become as powerful as she is now… And I could have her endless potential" she thought.
But he quickly sighed once more.
"Thinking about stuff like that won't resolve anything though…" he sighed.
"Even if I would had attempted to do that, I might had gotten targeted by the wrath of a Primordial. I was already playing with fire when I placed her here… perhaps Chaos only allowed me to do that because she knew Kireina could grow stronger here to one day meet her mother again." Thought the System Master.
"And even if I try to load myself with all the Skills she got, even using devouring for myself and eating other gods… it won't do. This actually only worked with Kireina to such a ridiculous extent because she was always the daughter of a Primordial Deity of Chaos and had her Trait and the limitless growth that these children have… Much like the family and friends she shares this power with, I would had hit a progression wall." He considered.
"The planets I left behind… Hah, I cannot even go back, the energy I would spend is too big, I have to simply abandon these projects. The clones I left… they can do whatever they want, I don't care anymore for the moment, I must concentrate in this world… Kireina wants to kill Hel, right? Then I will aid her if it's necessary… I've already bowed to her out of desperation. I know she's a softie deep down so she won't kill me, with this I at least have my survivability guaranteed… Although having an entire life at her side will be a pain, it is better than dying here." He thought.
Ding!
"Huh?"
[You've received a [Divine Message] from Kireina]
"Divine Message? What sort of crap is this…? What does she wants now? Didn't I told her I wanted some time off?" he sighed, as he opened the message.
The loud voice of an incredibly furious Kireina resonated across his entire divine realm…
["Oi shithead! Where the fuck are you?! We got a lot of shit to talk to you right now, so come here immediately or I am going to grab your ass and teleport you here myself!"]
"Ugh…! So loud… Kireina! Why the heck are you such a crazy bitch?! I never thought that Caterpillar from back then would become this type of domineering woman… I am not to her mercy, however… Ugh! I have to swallow my pride and go there…" he sighed.
The System Master quickly opened a portal directing to Kireina's divine realm, and flew there…

FLASH!
A portal to another place opened to my side as the System Master showed up.
"Hey, there you are, fucktard." I said.
"How dare you treat me like this?! Now that you're getting engaged to my daughter, treat me like your father-in-law at the very least!" he said.
"No. Now kneel." I said.
"Kneel?!" he asked.
"Kireina-sama please don't ask father to kneel… He has suffered enough." sighed Astraea, petting my shoulder.
"Ugh, okay, only because you ask me." I sighed.
The System Master got closer and sat down near me.
"What do you want?" he asked angrily.
"Okay we have to talk, your daughter just told me about your mommy, and now she also told me about how the System is… deteriorating? And that is not only the fault of your mother, but the most fault is yours? Why is it?" I asked.
"Ugh… H-How can you talk about me like that?!" asked the System Master to his daughter.
"Father, we only speak the truth." Said Astraea.
"Well yeah… Maybe I did do it! Maybe I… did stupid things out of anger most of the time, I just wanted to grow as strong as my grandmother so I could beat the shit out of her and free myself and my mother from all of this mess of a world! I want to go outside and stay outside…" sighed the System master.
"You have a strong desire of freedom, I get it." I said.
"You don't know, you can't barely grasp how I've felt this entire time. You only have lived over a year in here and you think you can actually understand how my mind works? How complex my thoughts are? Feeble little worm." Sighed the System Master.
"Huh? I am fairly sure I've lived a few billion years. Forget the part where I remembered all my memories? You're a child to me." I said.
"W-What?!" he asked in shock.
"A little baby, a small little crying baby that cannot confront his own grandmother and goes away, crying in a corner. You're just a gigantic baby, that's what you are, System Master." I said.
"Unngh…! Y-You…! You can't just speak to me like that after all I've done for you!" he said.
"What? Devour? You can take it back, I got a better one. In fact, here, catch it." I said, opening my soul, I cut off the piece where the original Devour was and threw it to him.
SMACK!
"Agh…! W-What the?!" he asked in shock.
"That's Devour, your blessings, and all you gifted to me, take it back." I said.
"Y-You think it makes a difference now that you've used them all, you've already developed evolved versions of all these powers anyways!" he said.
"Yeah, so I don't care." I said.
"For being a billion years you act like a sassy child." Said the System Master.
"Ugh. We are not going anywhere. Alright, what happened to the worlds you were controlling? Did you stopped annoying Veronica and Ervas?" I asked.
"I have! I stopped all of that, I don't even have any connection to these planets anymore, they're a waste of energy so I stopped the supply of energy as well…" he sighed.
"Oh really?" I asked
