December 24th, 2010. Christmas Eve.

Without anything to do, I got out from home to feel some fresh air. I just want to get out of the house because I'm tired of being a NEET. Just imagine, almost 3 months, me and Pixie became an urban legend. Yep, you're right. The Unbeatable Unknown Duo. Known for being top ranked in all of the games ever made with a record of perfect wins and zero loses.

Then, I realized, its December 24th. So I asked Pixie if she wanted to stroll around the city. Of course, she happily agreed. While putting a small camera in my glasses, then, Pixie which is on my phone. Whatever I see around, she can also see it.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells~! C'mon Onii-chan, sing with me~!"

She happily sang through just like a child that is itching to sing her favorite song. I don't know where my feet leads me but I also sung with Pixie.

I noticed that we were going out far in the civilization. We are currently in a cliff, overviewing the city. There, we chatted on any kind of topics what we can bring out. Whether another game, experiments, creating something out of ordinary, all of what we can think.

"Hey, Onii-chan, are you really sure about your theory pertaining that there is another world/s?"

I bring out my phone from the pocket and saw Pixie tilting her head in a cute way.

"Absolutely yes. If my theory is correct, then there is a chance that I may see her again."

"About your sister's disappearance? What is the relation in your theory and the disappearance of your sister?"

"Its just a hunch. A gut feeling or maybe intuition. Anyways, everything has possibilities. Literally everything."

"But, according to my analysis, its aproximately 0.00059% true. Can you still uphold that theory?"

"Still, its not exactly 0 isn't it? In this case, I can guess that the 'Portal', or so to say a rift of space that connects the worlds, are wrecked apart intentionally or accidentally. That is my best guess. Therefore, as long as the possibility is not 0, then its still a credible theory."

Pixie groaned. Maybe she's still immature on decision making because she was created lately.

Meanwhile, as I walked, I can feel that something may happen. I don't know why but my insticts are kicking. I looked around calmly to verify the sorroundings.

"None. But what is this feeling... I can't help but to feel a bad omen."

"What is it, Oniichan?"

Pixie said while inquiring. Maybe I should let her check this area now.

"Pixie, something's off in here... Can you check this area? I got the chills in now... I don't know why though... Ghosts maybe?"

"Onii-chan, ghosts aren't true you know. Wait... you're right... I don't know too on what is happening but strangely, the kinetic and gravitational energy is rising at a fast rate. This is getting dangerous, Onii-chan! We should get out of here now! I don't know what is happening in here but... Danger! Run, Onii-chan!"

"Hou, at last... We have found it, Pixie... At last! My theory has been proved! Another world exists! Look, Pixie, this is a once in a life time phenomenon, watch it and engrave it in your memory! Ahahaha!"

The energy wrecked apart. It distorted and tore through the space. In a few moments, it was complete. Now, it became a 'Portal' to another world.

"Pixie, return to the house. I'll be going in. Activate the Orion 6 and start the Project: Sovereign."

"B-but Onii-chan... I... I don't want to... lose you..."

"Its okay Pixie. You know me right? I am the strongest, smartest and the most handsome man in this planet. How could I die? Besides, my gut feeling whispered to me again... That I might be reunited with my sister soon after I enter this. So please, do it, okay?"

"Muu... I understand the strongest and smartest but is it necessary to add that you're handsome?"

"Don't be like that, I said it because it was true. Now, time to go. Pixie, take care of yourself now."

I smiled to her like it was nothing. Her anxious eyes were tearing up but she reeled the tears back. Seeing her do that, it makes me proud. This worrying A.I of mine, really, I couldn't thank her enough for worrying me. Her eyes hardened, maybe she has resolved. Then she smiled and said...

"Come back again Onii-chan. I'll be waiting for you here. Please, don't push yourself so hard okay? I don't want to lose the one who created this data of mine."

"Yeah. The next time, maybe I will be married at that time. I'll absolutely return in here so wait for me, okay? Now, see you soon!"

"Yes, Onii-chan!"

Then, Pixie's data was transfered. I have created a software for her to be able to transfer into computers. Several seconds after, I looked up at the sky. There, a red dot shined in the black sky. Withstanding the light of the stars. That means the Orion 6 has activated and the defence system in the house was barricaded very heavily. Even the computers who held all the datas I have made is also included.

Then, I entered the portal.

It was dark. I do not know what this place is but I still can breathe. I do still have my senses too. I thought that entering that portal will cut off the oxygen but that worry vanished.

Anyway, its dark, dark and dark. I can't see nothing but darkness.

"What a boring place. And here I thought entering that portal will give me a fantastical scene. Well, that's my fault for raising my hopes up."

[Doth mine place doesth not satisfy thee?]

A voice... I can't very well distinguish the gender and I don't know where he or she is. Who was that? I need to guard up.

[There is not a need to be frightful, little one.]

Another! Who is that?!

"Calling me frightful will cost your life. Anyone who insults me will never be able to live again."

[Ah. A confident word from the one who excells everything. Could the great you, be willing to help this one?]

"Hm? Excells at everything? Hmph! Only idiots would accept a help from someone they didn't know and even seen. Are you mocking me?"

[Hmmm. Thee are right. It is only rightful to show mine face to someone who I needed of help with. Very well then.]

A light shone in front of me enough to close my eyes. From the choice of words, I can grasp that it really needs my help. Asking for help without showing its face, isn't it rude? Furthermore, how can I trust that?

The light gradually loosen and I opened my eyes...

A calm violet pair of eyes, violet hair and a bit handsome than me. Yep, a man. His body is... well, I can't describe it because of his attire... A parka? Anyways, from one look, he gives off the feeling of calmness.

[This one's name is Deux ex Machina. This one holds the Time and Space. A pleasure to meet you, Neo de Guzman.]

Holds? A god?! Moreover, he knows my name!

"Hmph! Don't joke with me! If you are a God or a Deity, then give me a concrete evidence!"

[Very well then.]

Suddenly, the dark place became a grassland prairie. I can even feel the fresh wind, the smell of the nearby floras. I tried to bit my lip but it seems that this is true.

[This place is mine favorite spot to stare at the sky, a very important place of mine. Now, do thee believe me?]

"For now, I will believe in you."

[Thank you. Now, can thee help this one?]

"Let me hear it out first. If a God, came to ask me, how could I refuse? If you are a God that is."

[I see. Then, mine wish is for thee to be a Hero in the World this one protects.]

"........."

[Thine wish is for thee to be a Hero and save the world mine cherished the most from extinction.]

"A Hero? Do you know who you are asking at?"

[This one knows about who thee really are. Thee life was tragic from the day thee was born. Treated as a machine to do anything without asking question nor denial. This one know who thee really are.]

What?! If he's really a God then why are he asking me such a question?

[Furthermore, did thee wishes to find thee younger sibling are you not?]

He knew me fully well! Damn!

"Hmph! You know me too well aren't you? Then, are you saying that you knew where my sister is?"

[This one does. And for thee to know, thy life will never last longer.]

"What?! Are you telling me that she will die sooner? Tell me!"

[This one doth never said thy will die. Thee younger sibling's string of fate shall soon end if someone did not changed her fate.]

"No... I will never let her die! Bring me to her! Immidiately or... or..."

[This one's only asking a favor. And that shall be the future of the world mine has cared for the usmost. So, hast thee changed ye mind? Shall ye accept mine favor or shall not?]

Even if he's suspicious, knowing that my sister's life is in danger, I cannot let her die. Then, there's no choice...

"Then, I will accept if you will comply with my conditions."

[Hmm? Very well. Then what shalt it be?]

"First, let me hear what do you want me to do."

[Oh. This one nearly forgot. Then, what ye need to be done is to ensure the furture of a certain world.]

"Go on, I'm listening."

[Save the Riveria from its destruction.]

"If a God like you asks a favor to someone then the situation might be dire, am I right?"

[Indeed. The demons and monsters now controls more than half of Riveria's lands]

More than half of it? I see. So that's why he asked me. He knew that as a person, my value is equal to an army or either a country itself.

"Certainly, if you want me to help, I can guarantee it and expect it to be grand. With my value as a being, I, alone am enough to challenge a country. Moreover, I can make miracle like things happen. But, if you want my help, can you pay the price? I'm expensive you know?"

[This one knows. Even though, this one will still asks. Can you help this one?]

This God is desperate. Wait. Isn't he a God himself? Can it be...

"You are dying, aren't you?"

Ah... He smiled. He also nods.

[Thee are right. This one's existence hast a little left. Thus, this one wishes for thee to be the next successor.]

Me? His successor?

"A-are--- Are you seriously..."

[This one doesth not lying or either making up things. So, can thee grant this one's wish, Neo de Guzman?]

Me, a God? Giving me a position of being a deity so easily--

"No. I don't want to. All I ever want is to be with my sister and that's all. Being a God is not my forte and will surely stress me in the future. Giving me that position... desperate aren't you?"

The man sighed like seeming to surrender. Though, he still pondered.

[Indeed. This one is trully desperate to save that land. However, this one thinks that everything doesth never mattered thee in everything. So, to become this one's successor, this one offered the right thing.]

The God's eyes looked into mine. I didn't noticed but there is another person--no. From his fiery red hair, I can tell that he is a God.

"Hey, who are you? I didn't noticed you or either heard you breathe a while ago. Are you also here to offer me a job?"

The other God shakes his head and comes closer to us.

[I am here to give you my blessings, human. Do you not know how to act before a God, hmm?]

"Blessings? I do not care about anybody or any other deity. For me, what I see is unreality, a horrible reality created and controlled by this wicked thing called 'Fate'."

[Hmm. A fine reasoning. However, how can we guarantee that you will save our beloved planet? What do you want as a reward? What do you really need to wish for? Answer us to give us our mind at ease.]

"I only want to be with my sister. See her smile and laugh. Anything or anyone that harms our happiness shall be obliterated. That is my highest priority as her brother."

[I understand. Still, I am awed knowing your reasoning. Anyways, I am Trasdin, the God of War.]

"Oho. Now that you know, shall we proceed? I am excited to see my sister again."

[Before that, Deux, why did you chose this one as the savior of our world? Explain it to me.]

[Ah. Indeed. This one chose him because his abilities are more than enough to be qualified. Consider this as a scenario. If you bring himself alone to a battlefield, he can turn the tables down without them, the enemy, realizing it.]

[Hou. Truly marvelous. So, I am sure there is another catch about this one. Can you?]

[Indeed. Not only those, if he learns magic, in the span of a month--no. In less than a month, he can surpass any Court Mages in every lands. Also, his strength can match a thousand or more. His tactical thinking, a strength compared to a thousand and his bottomless talent in magic knows no bounds. Of course, even purely talent in an ordinary battle, no one can match him.]

[What a valuable hero he is then? Human, I do trust you now. Save our beloved planet from shattering, and we shall reward you as you will. Still, him to be a hero, aren't you giving him a too small of a favor, Deux?]

[This one do know of it, of course. Hence, in exchange, this one will give him the 'Battle Mage'.]

['Mystique Holder' and the 'Battle Mage' huh? For him to own those two, does this mean...]

[Indeed, a warrior destined to be this world's shatterer, is backed by 4 Demon Gods. This one still sees the future bleakly. This one feels sorry for--]

"Demon Gods? Are you saying that I am challenging their henchman powerful enough to destroy this world alone, by myself, esteemed me?"

[Indeed, as you can see, even I, the God of War, cannot defeat this Demon Gods alone. Nevertheless, I can match one of them by myself. So, are you having second thoughts, human?]

"The great me, having second thoughts? It only makes me even more excited. You see, I love challenging things, whether I am disadvantageous or not."

[This one feels happy. For this, there is a higher chance that this world this one cares for will be saved.]

[So, this ends our conversation. Get stronger, human. Backed up by the 4 Demon Gods, I am quite sure that its strong, their pawn it is.]

"Do you know who you are talking to? I am Neo de Guzman, the Lethal Prodigy of Earth. Consider saving this world done, because it has already began."

[Human, carry our will, our creed, our hope. For you shall be our light in this world. Shine us with your wisdom, bring forth the victory, enlighten the people and fight for what you believe in. Defeat the person who brings darkness in the future of this world.]

The God of War looks to me with pride, while the God of Time and Space looks at me with serenity. Both of them placed their hopes to me and I will carry the fate of this world within my hands. But in exchange, I will see my sister whom I longed for.

I showed them my fearless smile. Assuring them that this world, will now be safe.

"Let this Game, begin."
