Kapitel 29: Chapter 29: Administrators
-----
Administrators, inhabitants from other worlds that have ascended into this new Status through the power of the Higher Ups, and sometimes of the {Council of Nebulas}, if they have enough Authority and Power. By the way, Higher Ups and the {Council of Nebulas} are two different titles, belonging to completely different groups and hierarchies…
The Higher Ups are the true masters of it all, but the Council of Nebulas is so large that they're capable of convincing them and having a say in many of these Rules as well. But not as absolute as the Higher Ups. Or, as some call them, the Void Rulers. I assume [] is within the Higher Ups, hence why he can alter this world by adding me in without everyone else knowing except his loyal servant, the Jester.
…No, wait, if that's the case, wouldn't the other Void Rulers know too? It feels like it is even higher than them. No, that's impossible. Such a being never showed up in the novel. Ah, I'm getting a bit sidetracked. Let's think about this on another occasion. The Void Rulers are a whole other problem I don't want to think about in such early stages.
Anyway, they are similar to Constellations in many ways but also limited in what they can achieve. Administrators have decided to help with the whole process of Awakening other Worlds instead of working on their own as Constellations. Their Ranks also vary tremendously. The lowest of them are present in worlds, but the High Administrators… Those guys only live within the boundaries of the Third Awakening.
They're often based on characters from fairy tales. Charlotte is one of them, a black spider from a fairy tale whose name I don't remember, but I think it involved a pig. There are also all other kinds of administrators: a sadistic rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, the pig-eating wolf from the Three Little Piggies, and even goddamn Pinocchio.
Though their personalities tend to vary, they often only see humans as disposable pawns and as ways for them to earn benefits and power, and they curry favor for Constellations. They were designed to assist the Constellations in finding Incarnations and creating Quests to move the world forward, even if that meant killing thousands or millions while doing so.
Of course, they begin appearing in the Second Awakening because they're still preparing themselves; nobody knows about them yet, except me. However, although they're bastards, they're also quite useful little goblins.
Why? Well, they're armed with a wide variety of useful perks.
"W-What do you want from me?! That you can see me doesn't mean I will do anything for you! E-Even if many esteemed Constellations are already interested in you…" Charlotte said, clearly feeling rather nervous about the many Constellations watching over him.
"Look, I am in a hurry right now, so how about we make a fair exchange?" I asked. "Give me one of the Contract Scrolls you use to make Exclusive Contracts and I'll make sure to give you back the favor when the Second Awakening begins."
"Huh?! W-Why would I-"
[Several Constellations are glaring angrily at [Administrator #738: Charlotte]!]
[They say they might not even watch their Event Quests now that it has shown to be a very boring Administrator.]
[Several Constellations are yawning, bored.]
[Some are pissed off…]
"Geh?! W-Wait! Please don't say those things, Constellations! I-I…!" The spider had a rather unlucky day. Perhaps it was here because it realized I entered a Dungeon that was part of her own Event Quest ahead of time. I bet she never expected this to happen, though.
Also, if she was intimidated by Isis, it meant she was a very low-rank Administrator, just starting. High Administrators can talk face-to-face with Constellations and easily reject them if they want to. A low rank can't do so as easily.
"Come on," I said.
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} has sponsored 10.000 Plot Points to [Administrator #738: Charlotte]
[She says this should be more than enough, right?]
"Woah! L-Lady Isis! Very well, if you're really paying for that, then…!" Charlotte quickly changed.
I guess I didn't even have to give him something back; Isis is quite the rich sugar mommy. Charlotte suddenly summoned a status window of her own and started browsing through it, until she opened something called {Administrator's Shop} and opened it.
"Contract… here."
POOOF!
Suddenly, a blue-colored scroll appeared in front of us, and Charlotte offered it to me.
"Here, you damn brat, you're lucky you're so favored by the Constellations…" The angry and grumpy spider began cracking her mandibles angrily.
"Charlotte, behave," Sepa said behind me; her glare made the spider flinch.
"Y-Yes mother…" Charlotte nodded.
Wait what?! Mother?
I didn't know that Sepa created her in particular.
Maybe she was in charge of making every bug and arachnid out there or something?
Well, whatever the case, I quickly started filling out the contract and then finally offered it to Isis.
"Charlotte, create a special Channel with only Isis watching," I said.
"Eh? But…!" Charlotte muttered.
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} glares at [Administrator #738: Charlotte] while burrowing her eyebrows. She says she has given an extra 2000 Plot Points to [Administrator #738: Charlotte], so she better behave and do as Anna says.]
"Yes Constellation…" Charlotte sighed. "{Private Channel Creation}!"
FLUOSH!
Suddenly, my connection with all other Constellations was completely broken temporarily, as a blue bubble emerged around me and the "presence" of Isis. I quickly finished writing the contract and showed it to her.
"Here, read it. I can't become your Incarnation, but we can work around something very similar to that."
[You've proposed a {Divine Contract} to {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death}!]
[The Contract is being displayed.]
[A Special Contract where both parties agree to aid one another.]
[The human, Hunter Anna, agrees to aid the Constellation: {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} (Real Name: Isis) in avenging her husband, defeating Anubis' future incarnation, and freeing Osiris from the chains of the Egyptian Underworld, while also spreading the faith and story of Isis and Osiris to the rest of the world as a "Pseudo Apostle" with various benefits that can be discussed and negotiated later on. Additionally, Human, Hunter Anna, agrees to never betray Isis or Osiris and be a faithful ally.]
[The Constellation {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} (Real Name: Isis) agrees to aid the Human, Hunter Anna, with several special perks, such as limited access to her Divine Treasury, Rewarded Plot Points, the Ability to allow Isis to descend into her body temporarily to become a Pseudo-Incarnation, and the ability to grant Hunter Anna her abilities or powers whenever she is in danger. Additionally, the Constellation {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} (Real Name: Isis) must agree to never betray, backstab, or scheme against Human, Hunter Anna, or any of her relatives, friends, and future allies.]
[The Contract shall be agreed upon after both parties sign the paper.]
And there it was, my "deal" with Isis.
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} is reading the entire contract very carefully.]
[She is really thinking about it deeply…]
Isis is really taking her time, isn't she? It's not like she'll ever have a better deal. She could try to find an Incarnation anyway and just ignore me, but I am very aware I am quite the special person, so she doesn't want to let go of me. Even if I never become her Incarnation, this is the closest thing to one without many restrictions, and it seems rather reasonable.
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} nods after reading the Contract for the 1209th time.]
She read it that many times?!
"So? Do you agree?" I wondered.
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} has agreed to your {Divine Contract}, except granting you access to her Divine Treasury only once every time you reach Max Level.]
"Ahh, well, that makes sense. Fine."
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} nods and signs the contract.]
I quickly signed it as well; the contract changed immediately after I agreed to her new condition, and once that was done…
[You've completed the {Divine Contract} with the Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death}!]
[The True Name of the Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} has been revealed to you: {Isis, Ancient Egyptian Goddess of Motherhood, Funerals, and Rebirth}!]
[Congratulations! You're the first Human to have created a Divine Contract with a Constellation in such a way!]
[If you violate the contract, a terrible punishment will befall you. The same applies to {Isis}!]
[The Cosmic Throne {Lady that Soothes the Souls of the Death} smiles soothingly.]
[She says she's looking forward to your growth and, of course, to you defeating Anubis Incarnation.]
[She has sponsored 1000 Plot Points.]
And like this, I've gotten myself a divine sugar mommy.
"Ahem! Now that you and the Constellation are done with this, I'll quickly take this away." Charlotte said, as the Private Channel quickly disappeared.
POOOF!
"And now, please leave. I've tolerated you enough." Charlotte said.
"Already? No thanks, I'll go enter the other dungeons first-"
BAAAM!
However, instead of advancing forward, I hit an invisible wall.
[The [Administrator #738: Charlotte] has banned you from entering the Ancient Egyptian Death Gods Dungeons until the {Second Awakening} begins.]
"Look! I've been very NICE with you." Charlotte said, her eyes glowing with bloodlust. "But daring to fight a Constellation Manifestation head-on, steal his Divine Treasures, and then proceed to enter an unauthorized Dungeon would actually mean your death. You've violated several rules! It is only because the Higher-Ups told me to "Watch for now" that you've managed to get this far. I've just gotten their message, and the {Council of Nebulas} is bothering you too much to the point they've lost interest, so they want you OUT."
"I told you the Higher Ups or the {Council of Nebulas} would intervene sooner or later!" Sepa sighed.
"Hey Jester! I thought I could do whatever entertained the Constellations, what's going on?" I wondered.
[The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} apologizes, saying that he cannot do anything against the orders of the {Council of Nebulas}. And that [] has chosen to only observe and do nothing else.]
[Because his Master has become dormant, he states that he's working part-time for one of such Nebulas, which has employed him in the management of the "Entertainment" you and others may produce to attract new Constellations.]
[This is actually being done worldwide with many others, and you're not the sole and unique exception.]
"You mean other Incarnations?"
Right, every Incarnation is seen by many Constellations, right? I guess even now, I am not everything out there to think I can be the exception to all the rules.
[The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} has been suddenly reprimanded by the {Council of Nebulas} for talking about confidential information you're not allowed to know.]
[As a punishment, for the next week, he is no longer allowed to answer any of your questions.]
"Ah… This is my fault." I sighed. "Alright, Sepa, game over, let's go home."
"B-But my dungeon! You damn brat, you didn't even complete it!" Sepa complained.
"I'll do it once this opens officially. I can, right, Charlotte?" I asked.
Charlotte squinted her eight eyes at me.
"Yes, I suppose you could." She sighed. "Now leave!"
"Fine, fine." I shrugged, quickly opening a portal back home and arriving at my room once more.
This time, with a few extra constellations spectating me right now and a new "sponsor" in Isis, whose divine presence I could sense the most after our Divine Contract.
"Well now, I really want to- Ungh?!"
BAAM!
I suddenly fell into the bed head-first and immediately fell asleep.
[Due to the overaccumulation of power after the growth of your Physique and the acquisition of three S-grade skills, you've fallen into an {Extreme Fatigue} State.]
[Please rest for the next 12 hours to recover.]
Ah, I should have guessed this would happen.
Well, I should sleep either way.
Tomorrow, I'll be on a little trip to recruit a talented new disciple!
