Capítulo 1: Chapter 01: StarHaven

Certainly! Here's the prologue with only grammar and punctuation corrections applied:

---

In the Endless Expanse of the Blank Domain, a young man with a lean figure sat, staring into an endless abyss of chaos. His focus, however, was solely on a small white cat perched on his shoulder. A look of pure boredom was etched on his face.

"How long has it been since we've been wandering like this?" the young man asked, yawning, his expression full of boredom.

"What, already bored?" The small white cat cast a disdainful gaze toward him.

The young man simply hummed in reply, clearly too lazy to answer properly.

"You know, Aadi, it's only been a few million years, and you're already like this. What will you do for the rest of your life?" the cat asked, addressing him by his nickname, Advait.

"Oh, it's already been that long, huh," Aadi said, looking into the cat's pitch-black eyes. "Say, Asty, we've already reached the peak, so... what now?"

"I asked you the same question once, remember? And what was your answer? 'We'll do whatever we want,' so just do that and let me sleep." With that, Asty turned her head and began snoring.

Aadi's eyes twitched at this, and after considering his own answer, he sighed. He had told her that, after all.

"I know I can do whatever I want, but nothing comes to mind. Give me some suggestions, will ya?" Aadi said, poking his finger at Asty's belly.

"Get your filthy hand off my divine body, you wretched human," Asty growled, snapping at Aadi's finger, which he quickly pulled back.

"Ah, that line again." Aadi rolled his eyes. "Stop being annoying and just tell me what to do. I don't want to sleep for eternity like you. I'm not that lazy."

"You've never taken a disciple, so why not take one now and enjoy watching their journey? Or... live like those main characters from those novels you read on that blue-green planet." Asty snorted but still replied.

"So you're telling me to start from the bottom again? That isn't very interesting, and if I do it by cloning, that wouldn't be much different than taking a disciple and watching them, so I might as well do that."

Asty opened her eyes, glancing at Aadi's confused expression, recalling something an enemy once said when Aadi proclaimed he would reach the peak.

"With that awful IQ of yours, you think you'll reach the peak? Dream on, kid. Even if I let you go now, you'd never get anywhere near me, let alone the peak."

If he could see Aadi now, he'd surely crawl out of his grave to complain to the heavens about how unfair life was.

"What did you do to consciousness, exactly?" Asty asked.

"Oh, you noticed? I just sealed a major part of it, so I can fully enjoy whatever I do," Aadi replied, as if it were obvious. After all, if he had the mindset of the most powerful being in existence, things would be too dull, so he had changed his mind to back when he had started his journey to the peak.

"Ah, that explains why your IQ is... well, lacking," Asty said matter-of-factly.

"Huh? What's that supposed to mean?" Aadi asked, utterly confused by the insult.

Asty stared at him, speechless. "Forget it. I meant you should try living like those big-shot MCs who live like mortals in a dog-eat-dog world—open a restaurant or do some face-slapping."

"But they don't know they're powerful, and I *do* know I'm the strongest," Aadi said, brimming with arrogance. Well, he had every right to be.

"Minor details. Now get lost and let me sleep," Asty muttered, rolling to the other side, this time really falling asleep.

Aadi sighed. "Well, no harm in trying, and if I find someone interesting, I can take a disciple."

"Hmm hmm, yosh, let's do it!" Aadi shouted and stood up excitedly. Unfortunately, or fortunately, there was no one to share in his enthusiasm. But he soon calmed down and began to think.

"But what should I do for a living? Opening a restaurant is out—nobody would want to eat my food, not even me."

"I could learn it in an instant, but there'd be no fun in that."

"Ahhh, I'm good at nothing except beating people up. What should I do?"

Aadi sat down again, dejected. "Should I learn it? Nah, I won't break my own rules."

While mumbling to himself, an idea sparked. "That's it—I'll open a bookstore and sell all those novels I've read. Okay, now that's settled. Next problem, which world should I go to?"

After a moment's thought, Aadi shrugged. "Who cares? I'll just pick one at random."

With that, Aadi picked up the sleeping Asty and vanished, leaving the Blank Domain as empty as its name suggested.

In the vast sea of the void, a blue-white planet floated all alone.

Suddenly, space warped above the planet, and a young man with a white cat on his shoulder appeared, looking down at it.

"So this is the world, huh?" Asty muttered, staring at the planet.

"I thought you'd keep sleeping. What happened to your 'eternal slumber'?" Aadi teased.

"My sleep is important, more than your existence, but how can I miss this adventure? Especially if there's a chance you'll take a disciple. But I sensed divine energy from this world, so this might be a Divine World. Are you starting here?" Asty asked, a frown crossing her face.

"Nah, you see, there are many lower realms connected to this Divine World. I'll just choose one of them and see if there's anything interesting. If not, then we'll head to the Divine World," Aadi replied after some thought.

"Fine by me. By the way, what's this world called?" Asty asked, looking down at it.

"Let me check with the world itself." Aadi closed his eyes for a moment before opening them again. "Azure Divine World."

"And what about the lower realm we're going to?"

Aadi grinned. "StarHaven."

"Any reason for it?" Asty quickly found the Starhaven Realm among the thousands of Lower Realms.

Aadi nodded as a grin appeared on his face. "Yup! I sensed some peculiar connection of it with the Azure Divine World and also one another realm."

Asty raised an eyebrow, which was certainly weird because she was still in her cat form. "Then, doesn't that mean that world is already fucked? It will face a calamity it can't handle."

Aadi shrugged. "Who cares about that? We are just spectators or should I say some side OP character who is watching the Plot being written."

"I see that you were quite cringe back then," Asty smiled.

Aadi just rolled his eyes in response and teleported to the Starhaven realm. And this was how the Quintessential Mad Emperor started his life as a spectator after reaching the peak.
