Systemless in a Parallel World



[Hm? No.]

When the ethereal voice rang through his mind, Zayn could make out a face far in the distance. It was an old face full of wrinkles and the worries of age.

Zayn frowned seeing the face that seemed void of emotions, but he didn't say anything. He stared blankly at it

The outlines of a small, hinged person slowly formed in the void that permeated the entire room. Zayn couldn't sense the strength of the old man at all, but that was more worrisome than being able to perceive a powerhouse.

'He is so strong that I cannot even tell how strong he is…'

"Who are you? Why do you want to see me, and what do you want from my Grimoire?!" Zayn asked while taking a step back.

The old man's expression didn't change but Zayn could see that old man smiling behind his facade. It was a weird feeling, as if he was able to see multiple faces overlapping with each other.

[I am just one of the Great Gods, an old man who rules time and space. It's nothing special, kiddo. Your Grimoire is pretty interesting, but it can only be wielded by the person it was created or bound to. I didn't even bring it here. It was given to me to pull you to Pantheon.]

The old man's ethereal voice struck Zayn. It confused him even more than he was already. He was not too sure what the Great God wanted from him, but he felt like it couldn't be that bad. If the Great God wanted him dead, Zayn would be dead by now.

'But what does he mean by 'someone brought it to him'? The Great God is much smaller than the robed man, but didn't he hire him to bring the Grimoire? In that case, what the hell happened?'

[You must be wondering how the Grimoire reached the Pantheon, or my Hall of the Galaxies, to be precise. Well, it is pretty simple. But you are more interested in the robed man who stole your Grimoire.]

The corners of Zayn's lips twitched listening to the Great God. He felt like the Great God was playing with him. That was probably not far from the truth either. However, he…didn't really understand why the Great God of Time and Space was doing that. What was his reasoning?!

[Aren't you curious how that man knew you so well? He was fully aware of every inch of your being, including the position of your Soul, and the perks of the Grimoire of the Ancient. What do you want to know?]

"I am…but why are you doing that in the first place? Like…all of this" He asked but the Great God just chuckled. He snapped with his finger and the Grimoire of the Ancient appeared in his hands.

[My master created the Grimoire of the Ancient, and it was his mission to take care of the beautiful, yet destructive Galaxy you saw earlier. My master had to sacrifice his Divine Power to achieve that. He created the Grimoire of the Ancient with his Divine Power and made it easier to attain great power in a short period to conquer the corrupted planets he transmigrated to. Whenever–]

"Wait wait wait…what the hell are you talking about?!" Zany intervened in the explanation of the Great God. The Old man looked at him, but he didn't continue speaking.

Any other God would have killed him on the spot for acting up and being rude. However, the Great God of Time just smiled. Something was oddly familiar, but Zayn couldn't tell what was happening.

[You should bind the Grimoire to your soul once again. It had to be removed for a fleeting period because of certain circumstances, but you will be fine now that you have created the Omni Soulring. Look at your past memories and witness first-hand what happened to the robed man, and who he actually is.]

The Great God didn't explain any further and threw the Grimoire of the Ancient over to Zayn. The moment the golden Grimoire sensed Zayn, the pages began to flutter, and it shot toward him with shocking velocity. It pierced his chest and his Soul, burying itself deep inside his Soul.

Golden threads shot out of the Grimoire, reaching out to every corner of Zayn's soul. It felt like the Grimoire missed him…and as if it had been reconstructed fully.

'The Divine Energy in Pantheon recovered the Grimoire of the Ancient? Well…that's certainly easy. I don't have to waste my time then,' Zayn thought, not minding the change of events.

[The Grimoire was retrieved because it was not needed for the Mission. You relied too much on it this time. That's why you changed things up a little by retrieving it, forcing yourself to use your powers instead of relying on the past. Your foundation didn't change too much, but you are a little stronger than before. It was interesting to watch you every single time.]

Zayn had a tough time comprehending the old man's words. They didn't really make sense and it seemed like he was talking about something he should know but didn't. It was confusing and more than enough reason for Zayn to focus on the Grimoire of the Ancient that had returned to where it belonged.

[It was pretty hard to find you since I didn't expect you to go to this place without your memories. But it was necessary since no one could enter the Fused Realm, not with intact memories of eons.]

"Wait, doesn't that me–..." Zayn said, but before he could finish speaking his thoughts aloud, memories from thousands upon thousands of years flooded his mind.

'Oh fuck…'
