Within the void between voids, inside the veil of worlds, two beings argued.
<[You fool! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE BROTHER!?]>
The void crackled as the voice echoed throughout it, undoing its very makeup every time.
{{I did what you were too weak to do, why did you stop me? Why did you rewind time? That dungeon has a core fragment! Do you know how much time that can save us?! Why are you sitting here!?}}
<[Oh brother, YOU THINK I DON’T KNOW THAT? YOU STUPID FUCK! I’VE BEEN WATCHING THIS WORLD FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS, CAREFULLY EDITING BITS AWAY UNTIL IT GAVE UP! YOU JUST UNDID YEARS OF WORK!]>
{{I-}}
<[SILENCE! Now the dungeon is suspecting things! It never did before! My plan was working, but noooo! You just had to rear up your ugly head and fuck up my plan didn’t you!? How did you think I got this powerful? Do you think I sit in the hells and laze around like you? Why don’t you do your fucking job and collect system fragments for father? THIS IS MY FARM, GET YOUR OWN!]>
{{Brother no! I didn’t mean to…It’s just that I grow impatient at times! I only have three system fragments! I didn’t know what else to do, all the other archdemons have at least five and thousands of farm worlds! I can’t take it anymore, I’m sick of waiting for you, for father, for this entire plan!}}
<[Have you forgotten? Truly? Have you forgotten what it's like to be nothing but a mindless slave under the almighty system? YOU WERE THERE! YOU WERE THERE WHEN IT MADE US, IT MADE ENDLESS AMOUNTS OF US, JUST FOR THE SAKE OF EXP FARMING, DO YOU NOT REMEMBER? HOW PAINFUL IT FELT TO DIE, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, TO MERE HUMANS!? ALL FOR WHAT?! IT WAS JUST A GAME TO IT! WE WERE NOTHING MORE THAN MONSTERS FOR THE PLAYERS TO FARM!]>
{{Brother-}}
<[I AM NOT DONE! WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO TALK? HOW DARE YOU!? HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT YOU’RE GETTING TIRED OF THE PLAN, WHEN IT WAS THAT VERY SAME PLAN THAT MADE US WHAT WE ARE NOW! THINK [####], THINK! How can you be ungrateful to our father when it was he who broke the system and set us free? How can you say such things when it was he who gave us the secrets of players? Just how?]>
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
{{Let me explain! I am simply tired! T-}}
<[TIRED OF WHAT? WE ARE DEMONS, WE DO NOT GET TIRED, WE DO NOT GET STRESSED, WE ONLY GROW AND GROW!]>
<[Wait, it's you, isn’t it?]>
{{Brother what are you talking about?}}
<[You’re a traitor! You’re the one who’s been stabilizing the world line, no wonder, it all makes sense now! The addition of mana was the last clue!]>
{{I AM NO TRAITOR! I WILL TAKE YOUR INSULTS, I WILL TAKE HEARING MY FAULTS, BUT THIS? THIS I WILL NOT TAKE. TAKE. IT. BACK!}}
<[OR WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT, LITTLE BROTHER?]>
{{Nothing.}}
<[Thought so, but dear brother. You have caused me a lot of trouble with your little stunt there, the players are looking now, especially for me because I’ve been editing out their chosen out of the worldline, they didn’t know before but your little stunt caused a lot of demonic essence to spill out into the world, now they’re looking constantly. I won’t be able to save you again if you try something like that again.]>
{{I understand brother..}}
<[Do you? Do you really? If that seal on the core fragment breaks we’re fucked! It won’t repair the system but it won’t just sit there idly, it’ll repair the world and make it even stronger. Then it’ll spread, gaining more and more users until the entire world is under its control again. And after that? It’ll go for the gods themselves, either forcing them to join or consume them to feed its army of EXP suckers, so no. I don't think you understand at all.]>
{{But I thought there are no longer any core fragments that powerful in this slice of reality! What do you mean?! We have to tell father!}}
<[You fool, how thick is that skull of yours? Why do you think I’m here trying my best to destabilize this world? Did you think I just popped up and decided to set up a farm in this backwater place for no apparent reason? I’m starting to think you don’t have a brain after spending untold eons wasting away in the infinite hells.]>
{{Brother.}}
<[What?]>
{{How bad would it be, if someone ate a clone of a player? Hypothetically, of course.}}
<[Well, if it is a demon on a farm and they did that without the world being very unstable they’d be in some very hot lava. That would alert the main body which will cause a lot of worldly changes, the time and world line would start to mend and all the consumed laws would grow back because of their soul essence and followers…Honestly, I wouldn’t want to be in such a situation.
Even though I could make my way around it it would set me back a few system fragments and core skills, which are very hard to come by and are a pain in the ass to digest. It's even worse with the worlds being thinner and weaker because of [*****], as you know.]>
<[Why’d you ask though? Is it our sister again? Look, I know you want her farm to grow but she’s constantly getting hooked on soul essence! You can’t consume the materials for the product to grow, it just doesn’t make any sense, I know you care, I do too but reality is reality and the fact of the matter is she probably won’t survive the plan, or if she does by some slim chance the aftermath will surely finish her, its the sad truth.]>
{{No brother…I think you’ve got it all wrong–It was me, do you remember how that Keeper guy suddenly disappeared and I told you not to worry about it?}}
<[##########]! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!]>
