In some space-time isolated from existence.
•••
In a small wooden room which at first glance seemed to be extremely valuable and of good quality, a young man could be seen lying on the only bed in the room.
This young man has an attractive appearance, which is enhanced by his neutral face, his eyebrows like a sword and his slightly long black hair which gives the final detail to his appearance. And this young man was wearing a blue coat along with black pants.
Next to the bed where the young man was were dark blue boots and at the head of the bed you could see a black Katana resting calmly in place. With all this clothing and the Katana, Kaito who is the young man lying on the bed would immediately recognize what he was wearing.
Since that way of dressing belongs to one of his favorite anime characters, Rimuru Tempest, one of the most powerful existing beings in the Anime Universe.
Meanwhile, Kaito, who was lying in bed, woke up little by little and at the same time slowly opened his eyes. When his eyes opened what was presented to the world were deep golden eyes with no waves in them, just looking at them you knew how calm this person was.
After waking up, Kaito stood up slightly, standing at a 90-degree angle, then looked around to recognize the new environment in which he was. After a while of looking around the room, Kaito also observed the Katana on one side, the clothes he was wearing and how he now looked, that is, like a person from some Anime.
Although he didn't feel any contrast from this appearance even having lived in the 'Real' World, an ironic grimace still appeared on his face, at the same time he couldn't help but look at the ceiling and talk to himself.
"Apparently... the question of transmigrating to another World was true."
The reason why Kaito muttered this to himself is simple, and it is that before the crossing he always dreamed of a kind of System which told him that he was going to cross to another World in 1 year and in that year his body was going to be reconditioned for the crossing.
It is clear that Kaito did not believe this at all and only thought that it was a delusional dream, however with the passage of time that dream was repeated frequently and at the same time his physical condition increased in a strange way which made him pay more attention to this dream.
But he couldn't extract much information from that dream, because when he started to study this dream he suddenly crossed, which now still leaves him speechless. When Kaito was still a little dazed by the sudden crossing, the next moment a blue screen appeared in front of him and at the same instant a large amount of information about the blue screen came to his head.
For a long time Kaito was processing this information, until after several minutes he finished doing so. As for the information, this was from their System which had the function of Templates, that is to say that at the beginning with two roulette wheels a Fiction World and a character from it were chosen at random.
After the character is selected, this will be Kaito's template, which will have to develop the character template to 100% to have its full power. And after this another Template will be chosen as previously done, and the same process will continue each time Kaito completes a Template.
But in the information received by Kaito, he has a benefit and a problem related to his System. First the benefit he received for the delay in crossing was Rimuru Tempest's 100% Template. For that same reason he wears the clothes he used at the beginning, his Katana and of course he also has his power.
Now part of the problem, well this is that by adapting his body for the World of Fiction and giving him the Rimuru Template at 100% as compensation, the System ran out of Energy. And so that this situation does not happen again, the System will enter an indefinite pause while it is updated.
Being paused for a moment by all these sudden situations, Kaito let out a tired sigh and simply got out of bed, put on his boots, adjusted the Katana to his waist and left the room.
When he left the room he found himself completely surrounded by water, although it seemed strange Kaito did not think so since the place where he is is a Space created momentarily by the System so that it will stay while he woke up, but there is a drawback which is that when leavingFrom this Space Kaito will fall into a random Fiction World. This is also one of the things that left Kaito most speechless.
"From what I see, a peaceful environment can stabilize people's mental state." Kaito said these words, putting aside the previous problems and focusing on his future.
So Kaito continued looking at the surrounding water for a while while accepting the fact of having crossed to another World, of course he has no other way, he is barely understanding Rimuru's strength which in his current understanding is barely that of a Multiversal being, so with that strength noYou can investigate a way to return to your World.
So he did not continue insisting on that topic since he knows that before thinking about that he must at least have the strength of an Omniversal being. While he was looking for the last time at the first place that Kaito crossed, he looked away from it so that after doing so, a Spatial crack appeared in front of him. When this Spatial crack opened, Kaito did not hesitate for a second and immediately crossed it, as he did so the landscape behind himit disappeared little by little until it completely disappeared as if it had not existed in the first place.
•••
In a frozen steppe at some unknown time a crack in space appeared without warning and Kaito emerged from it. As soon as he left the crack, it disappeared without a trace.
"If I didn't have absolute immunity to the negative states of this kind of weather, I think that with this snow another person would already be frozen." Kaito murmured softly.
Because although he recently received all the powers of Rimuru, a Multiversal being, he is still getting used to them. And of course, the thing about getting used to it is that Kaito is getting used to his power so as not to destroy everything in his path.
But anyway, after having arrived at this place covered by ice, Kaito's passive perception perceived in the distance two clashes of two creatures with a large amount of Mana and next to these two creatures there is a Half-Elf that has a great amount of Mana. amount of Mana, already speaking of its own kind.
Seeing the situation that was presented before him, an ironic smile appeared on his face. Since what she saw was Melakuera fighting against Puck and on one side of them was, for obvious reasons, Emilia, who was worried about Puck, who was fighting to protect her.
This whole situation made Kaito think if the System did it on purpose so that he would wake up just now and after seeing this he would save Emilia or make a different choice, but it is also possible that this was just a coincidence, but regardless of the reasonwhich arrived in the World of Re: Zero, Kaito will go to help Emilia and Puck.
Although she now has a strength that she would never have imagined she had, she will not watch indifferently as something happens to Emilia, someone who makes her sad for her past, and to Puck, who protects her like a daughter.
Even if in his past life he was indifferent to strangers and was simply polite when dealing with them, now that he can help someone relatively well known he will not hesitate. But for reasons of the development of the father-daughter relationship between Puck and Emilia, until they are in great danger Kaito will not act, and well that great danger can happen because of the wings of his butterfly that can change the story even without the want it.
So, having visualized the current situation, Kaito began to walk slowly to where the battlefield was, and by walking slowly it is not that Kaito does not care about the situation of Emilia and Puck. If not, this time in which he walks to the place of conflict helps him think about how to increase his strength and how to control what he currently has. Because even though he has all of Rimuru's strength he knows that he is not invincible in the slightest even if he feels that way now.
So Kaito began to walk towards the conflict zone, while getting used to his strength while thinking of a way to become stronger. But halfway through the journey, Kaito suddenly stopped and opened his eyes slightly, remaining stunned for a while, but Kaito was only like that for a few seconds and then he returned to normal, however when he returned to normal, Kaito's face became a little serious.
The reason? Simple, the System that was about to go to sleep gave it new information about the Fictional Universe, to be more exact, the Cosmology of this universe. To begin with, the entire Universe of Fiction is located in a Dimension or place called 'Dimension of Origin' in which there are several Omniverses that are Worlds of Fiction or a collection of them.
For example, there is the American Comics Omniverse which is made up of the Marvel Sub-Omniverse, the DC Sub-Omniverse, the Transformers Sub-Omniverse, etc. Obviously not all Omniverses are composed of Sub-Omniverses, for example there is the Umineko Omniverse, the Dragon Ball Omniverse, the SCP Omniverse, the Lovecraft Omniverse and so on.
Of course, not all Animes, as Kaito called them in his past life, have a composite Omniverse, for example right now he is in an Omniverse that houses the Sub-Omniverses of Magic that exist, that is, Magical Worlds of Movies, Series, Comics, Mangas, Manhwas and so onsuccessively.
But of course, since they belong to a single Omniverse, it is because their World is not strong enough. In fact, the 'Re: Zero Omniverse' or well its attempt is not as good as the Marvel or Dc Sub-Omniverse that They are much more complex and even those Sub-Omniverses can be convertedin independent Omniverses without problems.
But after all this information it seems that it was not a reason for Kaito to get serious, in fact it is an opportunity for him to go to other Worlds, however Kaito did not believe it that way since in addition to the Cosmological composition of the Dimension of Origin, what Kaito is most concerned about is thePower that can be achieved with the Energy that makes up this Dimension.
Why yes, unlike the other Omniverses where they have different Energy systems, the Dimension of Origin is only composed of one Energy which is the Energy of Origin, which with just one thousandth can make a creature at the Universe Level I reached Megaverse Level.
So now if a creature at the Outerversal Level, which in short is a being that is beyond its Omniverse, absorbs this Energy, it could be capable of becoming a God capable of destroying and rebuilding all Fiction.
This is what worries Kaito since he knows that there are beings of those Power Levels that are evil by nature, so he can't imagine what will happen when they reach that absurd Level of power.
"Fuck, what a troublesome situation... it seems I must increase my strength quickly to be ready to deal with any situation." Thinking about his current situation, Kaito quickly calmed down as he knew that being upset he couldn't think clearly.
As for this Sub-Omniverse of Re: Zero? Although he is not arrogant, he still does not put it in his eyes, you know that even if there are Gods at the Multiverse Level in this World, they do not have the necessary strength to do something to him. It is more thanks to being in a less complex Omniverse, Kaito can ascend to a Megaversal Being. and even Omniversal in a little whiletime.
"Well I guess something good came out of something so problematic for my benefit." Saying this somewhat ironically, Kaito left the forest and ended up on a snowy plain.
In which Melakuera's fight against Puck and Emilia was taking place. Looking closely at the scene in front of Kaito, he realized that the situation was different just as he thought and just as his passive intuition to see the future showed him. Now Puck is in his full state of power as a Giant White Tiger and Melakuera is in his Giant Flame Horse form.
Although this situation seems the same as that of the original story because it is nothing more than far from reality, the reason? Apparently Melakuera's hatred for Emilia went so far that she plans to self-destruct and thus end Emilia and Puck at the same time. .
This does not mean that he will die together with Puck and Emilia, he will simply use 6 parts of the 7 he has to destroy himself, the remaining one will be the one in which he survives and of course even if it leaves him weak he will still do this.
When Kaito saw the situation that would happen in the future, his eyebrows trembled slightly, at the same time he thought if he couldn't avoid the fate of saving Emilia and starting to relate to her with such a cliché situation.
But he knew that if he wanted to leave a good impression on Emilia and Puck to interact with them in the future, he must save them which for Kaito's current strength there is no difficulty even if his strength is half controlled.
•••
Meanwhile at the scene of the confrontation.
•••
"Tell me, are we still protecting this half-Elf who is a clear danger to the World?" As he expelled more power Melakuera yelled at Puck.
"Hum, I've already said it several times, I will protect her no matter what I went through... so someone like you who wants to hurt her is better off disappearing!" Having said his last words to Melakuera, Puck did not hesitate any longer and lunged at him. As he did so, Melakuera's expression became extremely angry.
"Then since you insist so much on protecting this demon... you can go to hell with him!" The moment Melakuera's words fell, it separated into 7 parts which briefly left Puck confused.
You know now that he made the contract with Emilia he is stronger than the entire Melakuera, so this parting as well as his power left him bewildered, however when the remaining 6 Melakueras surrounded him Puck felt a dangerous feeling which made him not think anymore. in the actions ofMelakuera and instead thought about Emilia's safety.
Then Puck quickly grabbed Emilia with his tail and put her on his back trying to escape the siege he was in. However, Melakuera was not going to allow it, so the 6 Melakueras immediately locked Puck and Emilia in a dome of fire, which Puck did not pay much attention to.
Until he felt how the Mana of the 6 Melakueras was concentrating too much, even exceeding the limit that their bodies can bear. This situation made Puck's face turn ugly which of course made Melakuera happy.
"Now tell me what you're going to do to protect that half-demon... HAHAHA!" Melakuera spoke to Puck in an arrogant tone filled with madness.
But Puck is not interested in Melakuera's words at this moment, right now he just wants to get out of the siege to leave Emilia in a safe place. Of course, Puck tried to open up by freezing everything, but he didn't know whether to do it, since he doesn't know if the 6 guys around him will have a violent reaction to his actions.
When all this was happening, Emilia, who was sitting on Puck's back, felt guilty about the current situation. She knows that all of this happened because of her and although her relationship with Puck had advanced so much, to the point of signing a contract with him, thus ensuring that he would protect her at any cost through the voluntary contract. She still can't stand putting Puck in danger.
Puck, being related by contract to Emilia, could sense the mood she had, so knowing Emilia's thoughts with a sweet tone and filled with affection, Puck spoke to Emilia.
"Lía, you don't need to worry, I already told you that I will protect you no matter what I happened. What's more, did you forget that this is also in our contract?"
When Emilia was still feeling guilty, Puck's words reached her ears which made her almost unable to hold back her tears, but with a firm attitude that filled her being, she prevented the tears from coming out of her eyes. At the same time she stood on Puck's back and with an unhesitant look faced the situation before her.
Upon seeing Emilia's actions, a smile appeared on Puck's face since he knows how much Emilia has suffered. Seeing that she can face problems with courage even though it is difficult for her to do so is enough to make him happy.
Meanwhile, when Melakuera witnessed the actions of the two beings in front of him his mood worsened even more, then with a cold look at the two beings in front of him he made the 6 Melakueras that were surrounding Puck and Emilia explode.
Realizing the Melakueras' self-destruction, Puck immediately made several defensive layers of ice and even extended it to attack the explosion. At the same moment, Emilia also cooperated with Puck by doing the same as him, thus reinforcing the attack and defense for both of them.
When Melakuera's self-destruct and Puck and Emilia's defensive attack were about to collide, the accident occurred. First the abilities of the three disappeared without leaving any trace, then Melakuera bone's main body was enclosed in a blue cube in which his entire being was paralyzed, as if time had stagnated for him, and only his thoughts remained active.
When this whole situation happened, Puck, who was bewildered by what had happened, looked at Melakuera and upon seeing his situation, his eyes narrowed in disbelief, however, when he realized that Melakuera was trying to look at a place as if he would use his strength remaining, PuckHe placed his gaze on the place where he wanted to look.
When he did he was surprised, since in the place where his sight fell was a young man with long black hair, wearing blue and black clothes, and which made Puck feel extreme danger, he even felt that the young man in front of him was stronger than her creator, Echidna the Witch of theAvarice.
Well, it is normal for Puck to feel this, since the young man in front of him is Kaito, who has the power of a Multiversal Level being and also has the aura of a True Dragon and other powerful beings.
While Melakuera tried to free himself from the Time Cube, Puck, for his part, thought about how he could leave the site. But he held back, he didn't know if even trying to move from his original place the same thing as Melakuera would happen to him, obviously he thought more about Emilia's safety than his own.
But without warning and without letting Puck react, a small figure peeked out from his head and then stared at Kaito who had suddenly appeared. Upon feeling a gaze on him, he turned in the direction from which the gaze came. When he looked over Puck's head, he realized that it was Emilia who was looking at him with curiosity.
The moment the two's eyes met, it seemed as if time had stagnated for a moment and then returned to its natural course. However, the two continued to see each other for some time, until Emilia was pushed slightly by Puck so that her figure was hidden.
Which made the two's gaze cut suddenly, causing Kaito to look away from Puck to see Melakuera locked in the Space Cube. Meanwhile Puck was nervous about Kaito's movements, you know by hiding Emilia his purpose was so that she would not attract Kaito's attention, because first there is her appearance which can upset the other party because of her resemblance to Satella.
Well, another possibility is that he becomes obsessed with Emilia's beauty and wants to take her away by force. And of course Puck does not rule out this possibility since he himself knows that Emilia really is beautiful, well he is not wrong in thinking about this either since in the future even an Archbishop of the Witch Cult takes Emilia by force because of her beauty. .
However Kaito is not that kind of person, first of all he is still getting used to the fact of having crossed into the World of Fiction at the same time he is getting used to the animated landscape of this World, which by the way in Kaito's impression seems like every front was detailed andanimated, that is, it is not different from the real world and the only difference is the setting of the Anime.
On the other hand, he would not fall in love with a person just by seeing them, whether in his previous World or the current one, but nevertheless he is not short-sighted enough to not realize how beautiful Emilia is. Her long silver hair, her pure purple eyes, and the whiteness of her skin make her look like an extremely sacred fairy.
But, although Emilia's beautiful appearance was still in his mind, Kaito focused more on Melakuera and what he was going to do next with it. He knows that since he came to this type of World at some point he would have to take someone's life, even if Kaito had not done it in his past life he would not be stupid enough to let go of the enemies he would encounter here and in the future. future.
Then seeing Melakuera for the last time with a simple thought, Kaito made the blue Cube that enclosed Melakuera reduce in size quickly and this was so fast that Melakuera did not know when he died, well he was not going to know either since in addition to being compressed by Kaito SpaceHe also applied the Existential Erasure to Melakuera.
When Kaito put all that aside, Puck who watched the whole process was shocked, he didn't know the method Kaito used to get rid of Melakuera which really left him speechless, on the other hand Emilia was also surprised since there was no seeing that someone so powerful was eliminatedin that strange way, even if she was no stranger to death, after seeing Melakuera's death by Kaito, she couldn't help but look at him with a cautious look.
The moment Kaito felt the intensity of Puck and Emilia's wary gazes increase, he couldn't help but feel helpless. However, he did not only feel that, since he did not expect that the indifference he felt towards strange people in his past life would intensify so much that it would become absolute indifference.
That doesn't mean that he became a ruthless, bloodthirsty or even cold being, he just doesn't feel anything when getting rid of his enemies or even sentient beings as is the case now, well although this may be normal since his Life Level went up. at the Level of a Multiversal being.
But right now I wasn't going to pay attention to this mood or maybe I didn't want to. So with a sigh in his heart, Kaito slowly approached Emilia and Puck to see if he could establish a relationship with them.
The moment Puck saw Kaito approaching, he increased his vigilance to the limit, but sensing that Kaito had no bad intentions towards them and even conveyed good intentions, Puck only hesitated for a few minutes until he then returned to his original form, that is, the of a little catfloating. When he returned to her original form he did not forget about Emilia and helped her reach the ground safely.
After this, Puck remained floating at a height that would make it easier for him to communicate with Kaito. On the other hand, Emilia behind him stared at Kaito still with a little vigilance in her eyes, of course her vigilance decreased compared to the other. before feeling and seeing that Kaito didn'tHe expressed no displeasure towards her.
Of course, the two of them being able to feel the vibes that Kaito had towards them was because he allowed them, since if it weren't like that, even if they were 10, 100 or 1,000 times stronger, they wouldn't be able to feel anything from Kaito, even his own existence.
Well, Kaito let both of them feel his good disposition towards them to ensure that if the next conversation doesn't go properly, their relationship, which hasn't even started, won't be affected.
"Are you okay? It seems like you were in trouble," Kaito approached the two with a somewhat worried tone.
"Yeah, we were in trouble, but you helped us, so we appreciate it," Puck responded, somewhat gruffly.
"No problem. By the way, my name is Kaito, nice to meet you."
"Then I'll introduce myself too. I'm Puck and this is Emilia," Puck said, making sure Emilia was visible behind him.
Although Emilia was a little cautious and nervous when interacting with Kaito, she still responded to him out of courtesy. "Delighted... Kaito."
Seeing Emilia's discomfort, both Puck and Kaito felt the same, but neither planned to express it. Puck, worried about her, and Kaito, out of respect for her privacy.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Puck and Emilia, even if it was under somewhat strange circumstances. Do you live near here?"
"Huh? No, we actually live pretty far from here," Puck responded, a little confused by Kaito's question.
Hearing Puck's response, Kaito felt relief inside, as his next proposal would aim to alter the fate that Emilia would face in a few years with Roswaal.
"So, how about I invite you to my house? It's not safe to stay outside, especially with this growing blizzard," Kaito said, pointing to the surroundings covered by the growing blizzard as he spoke.
Of course, Kaito didn't need to point out the blizzard since both Puck and Emilia were feeling it as it hit their bodies. However, although it seemed logical that they would go to Kaito's house to take shelter, but that only applied to normal people.
Firstly, both of them have ice attributes in their Magic, which makes this environment the most beneficial and secondly, it is not difficult for them to return home, even though with these reasons they could reject the invitation of Kaito, neither of them rejected her outright. immediate.
Puck, for his part, does not refuse to accept Kaito's invitation, since he thought it would be a good idea to rest after this fight, although he is also afraid that if he rejects Kaito's invitation he will change 180 degrees and take them by force. .
But on the other hand, it has not also been accepted by Emilia, since where they live there are the sculptures that she made of her parents, so for this reason Puck still has not decided whether or not to accept Kaito's invitation.
However, Emilia was not as entangled in her thoughts as Puck, although she wanted to return to her home where the sculptures she made with ice were, for some reason she wanted to go with Kaito, you know since they saw each other until their current interaction, she loved him. realizing that Kaito hasn't seen heras a Demon like other people do, of course excluding Puck.
So for this reason she didn't get too caught up in her thoughts and before Puck could think about how to respond to Kaito taking a step forward Emilia responded to him.
"I-if it's not a bother then I'll accept your invitation, Kaito." Emilia spoke in a somewhat withdrawn tone.
"It's not a bother in the least, come I'll take you to my home." Kaito responded with a small smile on his face.
Emilia, seeing that Kaito continued to treat her in the same way as before, nodded and followed him, joining Puck, who was disconcerted with Emilia's sudden initiative, although he was not like that for long, since when he saw Emilia's back, he smiled. appeared on his face, since when he sawEmilia, who wants to overcome the stigma that people place on her because of her resemblance to Satella, makes him happy.
Meanwhile Kaito, who is walking with Emilia and Puck behind him, does not know Emilia or Puck's thoughts, well if he did he would only be happy about it. Since he simply wants to help Emilia for everything that has happened, and if she becomes attached to him in some way it will be a thing of the future.
Although he can see it in advance, he thinks that would be extremely boring or meaningless, for some reason he made his ability to see into the future and other abilities of his only passively applied to things that threaten him or when people close to him are in danger.
As for the people who were not affected by their passive abilities, they were the good people who appear in the main story, although there are exceptions like Felt or Beatrice. Who knows if there is a butterfly effect due to their appearance and something happens to them.
Now with the other members of the mansion, by monitoring Beatrice he can know how they are, of course, if Roswaal is monitored more than the members of the Witch Cult themselves, Kaito really wouldn't leave such a manipulative and dangerous guy unsupervised. .
The reason for keeping Roswaal under more surveillance than the other dangerous beings in this World is because the people he wants to help are with him, and of course some will think why he doesn't go directly to the mansion and that's it.
Well Kaito has an answer to this and it is that it would make no sense to go to the mansion right now, in the first place as much as the sisters, Frederica and even Beatrice would attack him for considering him an intruder, but even if that doesn't happen it is impossible for the aforementioned persons accept thehelp from a complete stranger.
So Kaito prefers to do things step by step, he wants to enjoy this new life that the System or the Universe itself gave him, he doesn't know. But whoever he was, he is grateful for this second chance to continue living. Although Kaito is still adapting to the new environment, I think it won't be difficult for him since perhaps Emilia and Puck behind him will make him get used to this strange world more easily.
Thank you very much for reading my novel, it is the first time that I write something, so if I have dramatic or writing errors, I apologize in advance. In the same way, if I see errors, I will correct them and try to improve as much as possible over time so that you can have a good experience reading my story, thank you.
